Assuming someone like a merchant wo

Assuming someone like a merchant would suddenly take a son-in-law into his family, the government would right away hand down a verdict of not authorizing it.

Also, there is the option of receiving the approval for a territory if you reclaim the uninhabited land by yourself.

Given that you have contributed to the kingdom, anyone can become a noble without any relation to lineage and such, but you have to reclaim the uninhabited land from the scratch.

Of course, if it was ordinary effort, the success would be doubtful.

There isn’t anyone you can call suited to the task if they merely have money, if their strong point is only magic or if they just have strong physical prowess.

You have to have the ability to handle many people efficiently.

If you don’t have that, it will just be a waste of money.

Even if you wage a large sum of money and the possession is approved, the restoration of the funds will take several tens of years. During that time it will also become a matter of decreasing the funds on hand without having any income.

If you rush the restoration of development capital, it will cause heavy taxation for the residents. They, who aren’t yet attached to the region, would escape. I hear that there are plenty of feudal lords devastating their territory like that.

Naturally, if that is exposed to the kingdom, that feudal lord will be deemed to have no ability to reign and the peerage and territory will be confiscated.

In other words, the waged money will end up to be in vain.

The kingdom has established strict rules in order to not limitlessly increase the number of nobles.

You could even say that the rules considered the majority of the vested interest, but since it was nobles who established them, you might say that this was something inevitable.

Besides, there are also people becoming nobles by succeeding in developing a territory.

“Even if the success is uncertain, they won’t be willing to spend money on the development of the territory. If they leave money behind, the inheriting descendants can freely use it.” (Wendelin)

Since there isn’t any inheritance tax in the kingdom, it was a better way to hold onto houses and fields, that have the potential to be harvested, as well as precious metals and money.

It might be difficult to supply money to the community, but because it became the role of the prodigal son of the rich to spread money around, this society kept a balance. (T/N: In other words, the parents are frugal but they son spends it all and thus keeps the money circulating)

“That’s right, isn’t it? The management of the territory takes time.” (Erwin)

“Though it’s also different if you come across a skilled, reliable magistrate.” (Wendelin)

While stuffing the hunted prey into the magic bag, Erw and me found out that we agree on planning to not get involved with the administration of a territory.

But I felt that the environment surrounding me is gradually growing in severity.

“However, it was nice to have a large catch today.” (Ina)

I finished putting the prey into the magic bag. I could produce several different things with that.

It is a magic tool that requires a basic talent, but it is relatively easy to use the magic bag.

Though it had the tag of being 『Exclusive use for magicians』.

A commoner can’t use anything but a general purpose bag due to their mana capacity, but the production of that general purpose magic bag is complicated to the degree of being completely out of my reach.

But, if it is used by someone with the mana of Luise and Elise, even I can easily make it.

“Because it’s monsters, the meat will sell for more than normal animals.” (Wendelin)

“Currently we don’t really need the money though.” (Ina)

Even so, all things considered, it is better than wandering around aimlessly. After Elise has collected the prey in her own magic bag, we will go back to Breitburg.

We will immediately leap back to the back yard of Breitburg’s guild with teleportation magic and head towards the shopping street after leaving the prey at the reception.

Since everyone had worked today, we decided to settle with a restaurant for dinner.

Usually the female faction prepares it whenever possible, but the girls are now in the same situation as us, working as adventurers.
