191. Villages, Towns, and...Average Heights?
Well, I can’t feel any mana today... Phew. I would’ve been pretty annoyed if I came back to find the fields overflowing again—which they very well might have been, considering I didn’t actually know what was causing the mana deluge in the first place. I probably should have done a test patch first... Oh well.
I was currently hovering over the vast fields once again. I’d spent the entirety of the previous day cleaning up all the excess mana, so I’d decided to take part in another instance of illegal immigration. I knew very little about this world—especially the parts beyond the forest—and since I couldn’t communicate with anyone, the only way to learn was via observation. Once I’d realized that, I’d gotten over the whole sneaking-into-kingdoms thing pretty quickly. I’d never learn anything if I spent all my time worrying about stuff like laws and crimes. And therefore, I’d decided to simply waltz right into any kingdoms I came across. The fact that I couldn’t even ask forgiveness did bother me a little, but unless I wanted to settle for a lifeentirely within the forest’s borders, there was no way around it.
Yep! Not sweating the small stuff makes for a better life!
That being the case, I’d been boldly violating airspace restrictions since early morning. If doing so ultimately led to trouble, I’d just rely on my future self to deal with it. My future self would ideally be a lot more knowledgeable on the ways of this world and therefore able to handle it.
Hopefully...
Well, there’s no point worrying about it now anyway! I’ve got other plans for today... I’m finally going to figure out whether beastkin and animals are the same thing! No idea howI’m gonna figure it out, though... I came here all fired up and ready to learn, but where the hell do I even start?
Unfortunately, a great deal of thinking had gotten me nowhere.
Hmm... Well, I’m tired of looking at empty fields, so I guess I’ll just head into town and start there. Maybe I’ll have a flash of inspiration.
I’d already spotted a small cluster of houses in the distance, which I assumed was a town or something similar enough.<
