The Strongest Fairy

Chapter 61 Fairies and People

What I wanted to talk about, and hear from them can be divided into two subjects.

The relationship between the heroes and the country.About the treatment of Beastmen Slaves.

The King told us everything they knew without hiding anything. Each country that participated in the campaign charged a heavy tax on Hallia. But then, the Heroes took over the country. As an agreement, then sent the beastmen survivors as compensation for the tax and they were worked as slaves in order to compensate. Then in recent years, A few heroes, mostly a pair was sent to each country as support. That was also the same in Haval, but it was more like monitoring the country than actually being a helping hand.

「That's how it ended up like this... I do want to free those beastmen slaves as soon as possible, but they have nowhere to live now. Even if they did return, there was nowhere they could return to anymore」

「...I see, well, let ask somebody for a bit」

「Huh? Oh, alright」

I immediately connected the magic tool I carry for communication and talked to Testania-san. I reported to her what I have gathered so far along with the information they have given me.

『So that's what happened. I see, that's what you meant... is that so. Aidle, what did you think after hearing it directly from them?』

「I think they will be fine」

『Then I guess it's fine to show them that? Like what I have said before, if you think that the country is trustworthy then I have no problems with it.』

「Got it. Is there anything else?」

『That's all. Ah, could you ask the king if he knows of someone called『Aldreic』?』

「Understood. Well then」

OK, confirmation done. This country will be the first one to make a path for our goals.

「As a result of considerable deliberations, I have considered Galania to be trustworthy and will believe in it」

「Really, are you sure?」

「It's fine, but first of all, Mondil-san, is there anyone here who is proficient in terms of this country's history and traditions?」

「I am one myself. I have been taught everything about the country, it's traditions and history as part of my education」

「Is that so, then do you know something about the『Fairy's Covenant』?」

About to sip his tea, Mondol-san suddenly stopped, then stares at me with a face that says he couldn't believe what he has heard.

「...Just now, what did you say again? Did you just say『Fairy's Covenant』? 」

「My King, what in the world is that?」

Meinen was confused after hearing that term for the first time, so he directed his focus to Mondol-san to ask. Just as Testania-san said, Royalty will be able to know.

「......It is a very old tradition. It has been passed since the age of myths and legends. It is one of the secret bonds passed down through royalty, and would only be told to none other than successive kings, a story that could even be said as part of a myth...... Aidle, how were you able to learn of such information.」

「I think it would be ok to tell you about that, but first can you read this letter?」

I took out the letter received from Testania-san from my hood, then handed it to Mondol-san. While impressed by the craftsmanship of the letter, he carefully opens it and slowly read the contents. The room went silent for a few minutes.
