★World Setting

-----------------------------------

I'll add things that might be of interest.

●About Barbarians

In this world, intelligent species capable of communication and social life are mainly classified into three categories: Humanoids (often called humans or humans), Fairies (Elves, Dwarves, Kobolds, Mermaids, etc.), and Barbarians (Goblins, Orcs, Lizardmen, Ogres, etc.). This classification is done by humans, where species that are hostile to humans and cannot coexist in daily life are called Barbarians, and species that can coexist by dividing areas are called Fairies.

●Differences between Magic Beasts and Ordinary Animals

Magic beasts generally refer to creatures that are hostile to humans. Ordinary animals, insects, amphibians, and reptiles are generally timid and do not attack humans unless they are hungry, protecting their offspring, or defending their territory. Magic beasts, however, are not like this. They are often aggressive and have special techniques for attacking humans, and some can even use magic. Among the undead, there are non-humanoid entities like Dragon Zombies, but these are classified as undead, not magic beasts.

●About Magic Stones

Although they haven't appeared in the main story yet, think of them as batteries for magic items. They are basically minerals that are mined from mines. Imagine them as crystals. In Minecraft, they might be like Lapis Lazuli (laughs). It is unknown whether there are mines in the Rain Margraviate. In ancient times, there was a technology to artificially create magic stones, and both natural and artificial magic stones with uniform shapes can be found in ancient ruins.
