"The races on the Luminara Continent consist of four races. They are the human race, the Elf race, the beastmen race and the dwarf race. Supposedly each race will complement each other. The Elf race guards the realm with magic power, the beastmen race is the protector for all races with their strength, the dwarf race is the support with their forging ability and the human race with their wisdom is in charge of nurturing all races.
Unfortunately, because humans felt they were too smart, instead of nurturing, they seemed to want to enslave us. Their intelligence became the root of their greed."
Hmmm, I see. They basically complement each other. Supposedly if they unite they will become very strong. It's like a company on earth where each other complement each other but the head manager abuses the power in his hands.
"No, basically, all races have reason and always want power. That's why we are called intelligent beings.
There are also monsters in this world. Monsters are endowed with great strength but no mind. Only legendary monsters have minds such as the four holy beings and peak monsters.
The Four Holy Beings are beings that possess god-like powers. They have existed since the world was formed. They are the blue dragon, red bird, white tiger and black turtle. While monster peak is the peak of monster evolution that is possible to obtain.
Like Miss Rika's Dire wolf, its final evolution is fenrir, the guardian god of wolves."
This world is full of mysteries that I don't know yet. At least now I know about this. Maybe I'll meet one of them.
"Then, what about the church?"
I asked casually because she had mentioned holy magic earlier.
"Sacred magic is related to the origin of this world. According to the legend of the elves, this world exists because it was created by the god Arda. He created the world tree and that's where the elves were born. For dwarves, they consider all creatures to be born from the soil of this world without anyone creating them so that this world itself is their god. Beastmen consider the four sacred beings as their gods. The holy beings are believed to have created the Beastmen so they have great respect for the holy beings. Then, for humans, they consider them to be created by angels. As clones of angels, they are endowed with complete abilities to lead this world. The church follows this doctrine and the majority of humans follow this teaching. Holy magic itself is considered to be magic that angels bestowed on humans.
That's why it's so hard for all races to be united because we can't all just assume the other is right."
So, this problem is so complicated that even on earth there is no solution to it. It turned out that the story of this world was bleaker than it seemed.
"Ah that's right, then what about language. Since earlier, I'm confused why we can comment fluently"
That's right, I can understand the elves and vice versa. Do the elves understand the xxx language of my country? I'm sure of course it can't be like that.
"Ah, I've also asked Arwen's grandfather about that. It seems that the humans of the other world will always understand and be able to use the language of this world. It's a special blessing of humans from other worlds"
Ah I see, I see. It's probably similar to automatic translation so we don't have to bother learning the language.
"Then, what about otherworldly humans, is that common knowledge in this world?"
I asked that to Flora because I forgot to ask Arwen's grandfather.
"Sorry, I don't understand either. Grandpa Arwen said, lord Rio and lady Rika as beings from another world will have crazy skills that can defeat all of us"
So that's it, special skills huh? By the way, I even forgot to listen to the explanation about skills.
"So, what about this skill? I mean, how the system works. Ah please also explain about magic"
I immediately asked that.
"Skill is basically a person's ability. Skills are divided into two, namely general and special skills but usually each skill will always be balanced in strength. For example, camouflage skills can be countered with search skills. The point is that every skill, both normal and special, will always have an opponent. Normal skills are skills that can be learned in general while special skills are skills that require talent and hard training by combining several skills. Special skills, for example, the skill of running disguised, it is a combination of acupuncture skills with voice changing skills and body flexibility. Nowadays, I just found out that there is a crazy skill from Arwen's grandfather, which is a skill that can only be obtained by otherworldly humans.
Next is magic. Magic is the ability to use mana and runes to manifest something desired. For example, fire magic. Fire magic is magic that materializes the form of fire that it uses as an attack. It can also form something for self-defense. As for runes, it is writing commands using mana on a tool. For example, making a sword able to attack with a fire slash. This is a more difficult concept to implement than the use of direct magic because runes are used for inanimate objects so the mechanism to produce magic is more difficult."
So complicated!!!
I got a headache hearing that. Luckily I had taken notes on what Flora said.
"Thank you, Flora. I learned a lot from you today. This is the snack I promised you earlier. Thanks again for taking care of the kids."
I said that because I had seen Rika and the other children coming towards me. They said they wanted to play another game.
I invited them to play with a ball that I took from the storeroom in my house. For their age, it was okay to play together with a different gender.
We played foot ball until I was called by the men to build the Hall. I was quite busy today. Even so, I'm glad I got this much out of it.
