Feeling his hostility suddenly subside, Henry bit his lip.
"They didn't do this out of consideration for us," he thought bitterly. "They probably just changed it because they didn't like how dirty their own land looked."
Yes, it was definitely not money spent for the commoners. It was only because the lord considered it his own land. As Henry tried to keep his resentment alive, another thought crept in.
"...If it wasn't their own land, who would spend so much money to change the territory? And could they have even managed to earn forty thousand magic stones in the first place?"
The lord changed this territory because it was his own. He had leveled up enough to earn forty thousand magic stones because he prioritized leveling. All of that had ultimately led to the current situation.
