My Magical System

For some reason, it sounded familiar to him. Perhaps he heard it before, but he could not remember where and when.

Anyhow, he could not blame himself if he forgot many things as he also had many things that weighed his mind and needed to be put into account first.

While mulling, ‘Wait, aren’t Mina part of the great noble family? What family is it again? Ah, hmm, S-Skyblaze family. Right, that family,’ Eman recalled after some time of pondering.

Looks like the previous host wasn’t so bad at socializing as he was also acquainted with Hannah, the daughter of the Goldenlotus family.

Hmm.

Speaking of the Goldenlotus family, he remembered it was tonight that one of his men that he sent to investigate that family would make contact with him to give a report.

.....

‘Right. It’s tonight, huh,’ Eman whispered in mind.

He was relieved that the Goldenlotus family was yet to show grave hostility towards him, unlike the Gentlewind family.

Regarding the Gentlewind family, in truth, it was the Oldman Grenn and Jura so far who showed real hostility to him.

But even so, he could not lower his guard to that family. Well, he had a card that he could use if they tried to pull something against him.

His only wish was that they would give him enough time to prepare for himself if ever they planned to kill him.

Also, if they come to attack him, he would rather they attack him in secret than attacking him heads on.

If they attack him in secret, they only need to send a few people to assassinate him while if they do it blatantly, there is a high possibility that they use their numbers to overwhelm him– That would be troublesome for him.

Assassinating him in secret was useless against him who could perceive killing or murderous intents at a wide range. He had many ways to repel them or use their assassination against them before they succeed.

Now that Eman thought about it since there was the Ranking Month, he believed that they would not make their move against him for the time being.

It gives him more leeway to prepare. A grin secretly appeared in his mouth.

Eman and Eina arrived at the market. However, after checking all the shops nearby, he learned that no one among them was selling fertilizer.

He had a little hope because of the waterwheel. But it looks like fertilizer was hardly known here. No wonder the quality of their crops and any related products wasn’t so good as how he looked at them.

In his Lord’s Domain, he had no restriction of using it as there were only his people. As a result, the crops grew healthier.

Looking at the village inside his domain, the village was more advanced compared to the village in this empire.

Although the houses inside were made of wood and bamboo, little by little, some of them started to make mortar and stone houses after watching lots of movies on their television.

Speaking of television, Eman already implemented the use of solar power. So, in his domain, everyone was already using electricity.

Still, he was a little skeptical about using the otherworld products outside his domain, be it in his own village. However, looking that there’s nothing else he could do, he had to do it then. Also, he had already decided on it long ago. But, although he would be using those products, he would be using them in a way that wasn’t different from this world’s view. Right, he would be implementing technology and magic in a new way.

How to do it? That’s his problem that needed lots of thinking.

“Let’s go, Eina.”

“Are we going home, bro?”

“No, not yet. We’re going to stay for a night. Is that okay?”

“Hm, yeah.”

She must be worried about Aunt Claire. Eman thought after noticing the slight skepticism on his sister’s expression.

“Don’t worry about Aunt. Those people with her are good people. You should also try to communicate with them when we go back,” Eman said with a warm smile.

“Eh... do you know them, bro?” Eina was quite surprised. She wondered how his brother could easily trust those people. Wasn’t it just the other day that he met them?

“Ah, well, just the other day that I met them. But don’t worry. I have a good sense of reading other people’s characters.”

Well. They were his people after all. They could not betray him as they were bound by his taming ability.

Looking at her brother’s casual expression, “I see. Okay, bro! I trusted bro a lot!” Eina exclaimed.

Eman smiled warmly at his sister’s remark before patting her head.

“In that case, let’s buy something you want first.”

“Eh?! R-really, bro?!”

Eman nodded.

“Yeah, anything that my cute little sister likes. So don’t hold back, okay?”

“Yay! Okay, bro!” She said as she threw herself to her brother.

Around this time, Zennie along with her attendant and Rossbert were strolling the market to buy medicines for the people in Rothsport.

“Ngh,” a moan of disappointment slipped from Zennie’s mouth after learning that there wasn’t enough medicine being on sale.

“This is bad,” Zennie muttered.

“Sorry, My lady. There has been a shortage of supply in the city recently. Based on what I heard from our suppliers, one or two of the main products that needed to produce medicine had stopped coming,” the vendor said despondently.

“Could it be the Tyrant Grass from the west or the Magenta Floramint from the east? Wait. There is also the Millennium Flower of the north and the Wild Seaweeds from the south.”

Rossbert suddenly interjected with a question that stunned not only Zennie and Liz but also the vendor.

“Ara, I never thought that Mr. Knight knows a lot regarding medicine.”

Rossbert’s mouth hangs open. Maybe the vendor thought he was a knight because of his armor.

Although Zennie and Liz also noticed it, they had no leeway in pointing out the vendor’s mistake.

They were more concerned regarding the reason for the low supply of medicine.

“Well, I have a little knowledge about medicine as I have an Alchemist friend who mostly talked about it,” Rossbert said wryly.

“I see. The truth is... I have no idea of the Millenium flower and Wild Seaweeds, but. I heard that both the Tyrant Grass from the west and the Magenta Floramint from the east had stopped coming, since last month.”

“What?!”

The three exclaimed from the vendor’s reply.
