Regressor of the Fallen Family Chapter 214

Episode 214: Mountains lined up in the northern part of the Kalia region.

Although it is somewhat low and rises sparsely to be called a mountain range, it is a place that interferes with the smooth passage of people coming and going.

In addition, the low mountains blocked the middle Tenon River, which flows from northern Grandia through the central plains.

Therefore, some regions, including Taren, which floated between the middle Tenon River and the middle Luther River to the south, did not receive any benefits from the huge river to the north and south and were having difficulties with farming.

Until just last year.

Okay.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa.

Shoot aaaah.

The water flow of the huge waterfall gradually decreased and soon turned into heavy raindrops.

And when even that becomes less frequent.

“It’s truly amazing.”

An exclamation came out of Logan’s mouth as he watched the floodgates close above the dam’s gates.

It was a dam created by drilling a hole under the Three Peaks Mountain, the most famous mountain in the northern part of the Taren region.

This dam, named Tenon Dam because it drew in water from the Tenon River, was able to precisely control the water volume with a simple lever operation. It was definitely an advanced method compared to the dam at McLane Plain.

“My compatriots and I worked hard to dig a tunnel under these three peaks and bring in water from the Tenon River! This is only natural.”

“Hmm. Well, okay. Unpack all the bags you have.”

At those words, about 100 dwarves, including Hamar, flinched at the same time.

Although they had sworn an oath through a magic contract, they knew full well how expensive the powder contained in the bag the size of their torso was.

“Are you really going to put this in water? It’ll all dissolve and disappear?”

“Unless you’re trying to make a large amount of mana potions… No, mana potions also require some processing, but are you really sure…” Even

Clayton, who followed Logan saying he supported his opinion, was about to actually carry out the task. He seemed hesitant.

Just the magicite powder they brought now would easily exceed 10 million gold.

“Isn’t it already made into powder? If you leave it as is, the assimilation process will start in a few days, so it’s better to just sprinkle it on. Now, what are you going to do? Pour it!”

The dwarves closed their eyes tightly at Logan’s words and unzipped the sacks they were carrying on their backs.

– Mana is faintly scattered in nature, and magic stones created under special conditions gradually melt into nature when placed in a normal environment.

– The natural assimilation process of magicite becomes faster as the volume of the lump is smaller and the humid environment is.

The characteristics of magic stones are known to anyone interested in them.

Since they have already ground it into powder and brought it to the dam, the value of the magic stones they are holding will already be dropping in real time.

Soon, the brilliant blue powder inside the bag fell into the water that had accumulated inside the sluice gate.

Powder of magicite, an ore in which the power of nature, mana, was crystallized under special conditions.

The shining powder disappeared as soon as it entered the water.

“Ah.”

“What should I do with this?”

“It’s a waste…”

Most people who knew its value couldn’t help but sigh.

But just one person.

In Logan’s eyes, he could see the mana dissolved in the water continuing to spread a bright blue light, albeit faintly.

“Now open the floodgates again. Let this water spread all over the farmland now.”

A satisfied smile naturally appeared on Logan’s face.

Water dissolved in magicite.

The so-called farming method using magic essence was a method that was created through an unexpected accident in the empire of the previous life.

To be exact, it was the result of terrorism, and more precisely, because of the attack on the magic stone transport wagon by the Grandia Liberation Front.

At that time, the independence forces, including Lewis, released a large amount of magic stones into the Tenon River, saying that they would not send them to the empire unless they could be used by themselves.

In fact, all the magic stones, which were semi-mineral and semi-energy bodies, quickly dissolved in the river water, and the empire seemed to have suffered enormous damage as a result.

The following year, an unprecedentedly abundant harvest occurred in the plains along which the Tenon River flows, until an epidemiological investigation was conducted.

‘If the magic stones dissolved in water are absorbed into the land at a certain rate, they will not disperse for at least 10 years and will maximize the growth of all plants growing on that land…’

Of course, we do not know the exact amount of magic stones that were poured into the Tenon River in the past life. We only know it as a year’s worth of mining.

Afterwards, the details of the magic essence farming method introduced by the Empire were kept a top secret, and Logan at the time had no way of knowing the most appropriate magic stone ratio.

but.

‘Because I can see mana now.’

That’s it.

Shoot aaaah.

Logan’s red eyes clearly showed the mana spreading in the flowing water and the rate at which the water containing that mana seeped into the land.

‘You only need to pour until the point where the mana concentration no longer thickens.’

As I watched, I soon saw a soft blue light spreading brilliantly from the ground that the demonic essence had seeped into.

A beautiful sight that only your eyes can see.

Regardless of its meaning, the sight of the green and brilliant energy of nature spreading across the earth was simply beautiful.

It’s so sad that you’re the only one who can see that scene.

“Let’s pour it in one by one! And then we go to Luther Dam!”

Two dams that turned the wastelands of Taren into farmland.

Logan planned to go back and forth between the two dams, pouring in magicite until all of the newly developed Taren Plains were sufficiently lit.

In the eyes of others, something that appears to be just a meaningless waste of resources.

It was more than a month later that Logan stopped working with a satisfied expression on his face.

* * *

“Don’t you feel like the wheat is growing strangely these days?”

“Oh, you too?”

“Hey, guys. It’s all because of my mood. It’s my mood!”

“I don’t think it’s because of my mood.”

“I guess it’s because I’m excited to have a house and land when Taren Town is built. I’m also excited and my steps are pounding as I go to work. Still, it’s too much to feel the wheat growing, man!”

“…is it?”

Eat.

Early in the morning, it wouldn’t be too awkward to say it was dawn.

A smile naturally appeared on Logan’s lips as he listened to the conversation between workers working in the fields from afar.

‘Now I’m almost done with what I have to do in Taren.’

So now it was time to go back to McLane Town.

It may be a matter of moving the center of the territory after Taren Town is fully completed, but now Taren will be able to run with just the remaining people.

Unlike Logan, who was filled with satisfaction at that time, a voice that clearly felt his confused mind woke him up from his thoughts.

“It was only today that I learned that fixed mana can exist even in farmland. How on earth did you, Confucius, know something that even the Earth Magic Tower did not know about?”

Clayton objectively confirmed that what the workers were muttering earlier was not an illusion.

“The Empire taught me.”

“Yes…? Huh, the empire already?”

Logan, who threw Clayton into yet another confusion with an answer containing half the truth, chuckled and led the knights and soldiers to Macline Town.

It was 15 days after Logan arrived in McLane Town and finished the water purification work at McLane Dam.

My father, whom I had not heard from since returning from the Empire, returned to town with ‘one person’.

“Hahaha! This guy has become a superhuman?!”

The father, who looked unusually haggard as if he had suffered more than expected, smiled broadly and welcomed Logan.

“You’re lucky, Dad.”

“Can that be considered lucky? A superhuman and the youngest on the continent.”

Logan smiled bitterly at that title.

Normally, it was like taking away the honor that my younger brother should have, so I felt a little uncomfortable every time I heard the title of youngest person on the continent.

So he hurriedly changed his mind.

“But the author behind it is…?”

“It’s Bourdel. One of the people you mentioned. He’s a witch hunter.”

Logan’s eyes lit up as Padric smiled and pointed to the person standing behind him.

‘I expected two out of three, but only one. But it’s fortunate that one of them is Bourdelle.’

Even in the middle of summer, when there was no way to know his intentions, a man with an expressionless face dressed in an unidentifiable animal skin bowed his head slightly towards Logan.

“This is Bourdel. It’s an honor to meet a superhuman. But Confucius was looking for me…?”

Brown hair, blue eyes, and calm, motionless eyes looked at Logan.

‘Archers are the highest level force users. ‘I’m sure.’

From that momentum, Logan was able to feel the talent of the ‘Phantom Archer’, which he had only seen from afar in his previous life.

Even in all my memories of my past life, I had the unique qualities of an archer and auror user.

“That’s right. I even heard a rumor here that near the demon forest in the northern part of the empire, there is a demon beast hunter who is as good at shooting a bow as a ghost. Welcome to McLane, Bourdel. Make yourself at home. I promise you the best treatment.”

The ghost archer Bourdelle’s achievements on the battlefield were as splendid as his unique abilities, so much so that they were almost mythical, so most of his achievements were exaggerated and tended to be ignored by those who had not seen him in person.

This is because archers were generally treated as soldiers rather than proper warriors.

However, in his previous life, Logan had experienced Bourdel’s ridiculous abilities firsthand.

The sight of red arrows suddenly flying in the middle of a plain where nothing could be seen, blowing off the heads of my colleagues one after another.

‘I survived alone and went crazy. To find the enemy.’

How absurd I was when I later heard that it was an arrow fired from a mountain peak 3 km away.

And how afraid I was.

As I reminisced about that time, I unconsciously felt a surge of energy.

“Ugh! Logan?!”

“Huh!”

Padric stopped short of simply calling his son’s name in surprise, but Bourdelle’s response was quick.

In an instant, he slipped back and was holding a glossy black longbow in his hand, and the black arrow on the bowstring twisted into a bizarre shape was trembling and aiming at Logan.

Containing a clearly refined red energy.

Bourdelle’s expressionless face showed a look of surprise.

It was because I was exposed to the life of a superman from the front.

Since the fault was his, Logan let out a small sigh and a chuckle.

“I made a mistake. It reminded me of bad memories about the bow… I’m sorry. Please put the bow down. Or, shall we at least test your skills here?”

“ah…!”

Only then did Bourdelle’s face, which had been so frozen, soften slightly.

It was only then that he remembered that he was now in the heart of McLane and had decided to rely on that family.

“I’m sorry. I’ve lived such a rough life that I unconsciously…” ”

It’s okay. I was impressed by your quick reaction. I didn’t intentionally test you, but if I had stayed still, I would have been disappointed.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“No. This was the mistake we made first.”

The atmosphere quickly became friendly again.

A superhuman who proved his worth as one of the empire’s superhuman mercenaries during the Imperial War in his previous life and became a high-ranking noble of the empire.

Among them, it was the day when the ghost archer with the highest tactical utility joined McLane.
