"Wow, that's great. Is this the true power of [naming]? I had no idea until now."

"It's true, Zen. Look at this. It's more powerful than before because I can pour more magic power into the [flame of love].

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, wow, Walter. That's great."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Zen and Walter started to compare their strength with each other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that the newly created organization of the new Barka Faction has begun to function here in the Purge District.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As their first task, they began to give names to the residents of the city.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The use of [naming] by the management organization to those who are close to them, and further use of [naming] from there, must have spread very quickly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Now, Zen, Walter, and others can feel the increase in the amount of magic power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Barka mercenaries are not the only ones who are experiencing this increase in magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is because it is also the members of the organization that has given its name to the residents of the city who are feeling this increase.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They, too, are experiencing an increase in the amount of magic power due to the flow of the city's magic power through the magical connection.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This was another target.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is because the problem was that those who had originally pledged their allegiance to the Barka Mercenaries and remained in the position to manage the city were not very strong in principle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Both in the Orient, where the council is located, and in this Purge town, those who are in high positions basically tend to have more magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It has to do with the history.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Those who are privileged are born with more magical power, and those who have more magical power marry each other, and thus, those who have more magical power are born.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, in most cities, the powerful people are recognized as "those who have a lot of magical power and are strong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But what if the people we appointed to run this town are just a bunch of small guys who can only do clerical work.......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe the residents will soon stop listening to us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They would be treated as traitors who betrayed the residents and joined the mercenaries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I think this naming will reduce that possibility to some extent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As the recipient of the magic power from the whole town, even though the higher ranks will take it away from him, he now has more magic power than the other residents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be enough to be recognized as a person who stands above others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, I think that he will be recognized to a certain degree by the residents of Purge Town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If there is a problem, it is the relationship with the country of Peria.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Originally, this Purge Town belongs to Peria, a small country located in the northeast of Orient.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The information that this Purge town was defeated by Peria should be known soon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And it will soon be known that the defeated Purge City has formed a new organization to rule the city after the mercenaries who invaded the city have left.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　How will the Peruvian state react then?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since the city was originally ruled by the Purge family, they may request the return of the city to the Purge family, or if they fail to do so, they may put the city under the supervision of the Peria nation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Or, if they are more radical, they may capture and execute all the members of the new Barka faction when they find out that they have formed a relationship with us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That would be a bad idea.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　By bad, I mean not only that they will kill the members of the organization, but also that the connection of magic power will be severed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If all the people who named the residents of the city die, the mercenaries of the Balkan mercenaries who increased their magical power by naming the people of the organization would lose the benefit of their magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We would like to avoid that if possible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then what should we do?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After thinking about it, I decided to leave one more insurance policy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A way to keep the recovery of magic power from the Purging Town uninterrupted no matter what the Peria nation does.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was to keep a portion of the organization's personnel on hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't get too excited, you two. ...... Leave those two alone, please, Kiku. Make sure they are properly escorted to the new Barca town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't worry. I'll take care of it, Master Alphonse.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I looked away from Zen and Walter, who were still excitedly competing in a contest of strength, and called out to Kiku, who was moving swiftly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kiku hears my voice and responds with a thump on her chest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently, he was happy that I had praised him for his effort in the previous battle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is more enthusiastic than usual when I give him a new task.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The task I asked Kiku is to take a certain person to the new Barca town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a member of the Purge family that had survived in this town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was also a member of the organization that ran the Purge Street.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was a girl named Karen who was raised as a daughter of a branch of the Purge family, which was different from the head of the family such as Guido and Graham.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Karen was one of the girls who pledged her allegiance to the Barka mercenaries on the night of the Purge's defeat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe she was just trying to survive.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I accepted her loyalty and made her a member of the organization.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Others seemed to think that Karen would be the only member of the Purge bloodline in the organization.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I was wrong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I decided to give her the same name as the others to the inhabitants of the city and to take her from this city to the new Barca city.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This way, even if all the remaining members of the organization in the city die, there will still be residents who can use magic in the city of Purge for the time being.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And we do not make the residents swear to prohibit the use of magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, even if most of the members of the organization are punished by the State of Peria and die, the residents who can use magic will re-name those who can no longer use it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, life magic is really useful.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Once you have experienced it, it is impossible to go back to a life without it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, the possibility of a complete loss of the magic recovered by the Barka mercenaries should be much lessened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Incidentally, I am thinking of having Ai educate this Karen girl with the orphans after I bring her back to the new Barca town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since she is about the same age as Kiku, she should be able to easily absorb what I teach her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we whisper to her that she should get used to the Barka way of doing things and that she may be able to come back to the Purge Town sooner or later, she may do her best to study.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At any rate, in this way, the Barka Mercenaries have succeeded in efficiently recovering the magical power of the Purge City.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And they have also taken measures to reduce the possibility of losing it as much as possible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, there is nothing more we can do here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For the time being, the members of the organization stayed in the city to see if they could really take control of the Purge Town, and only after they had done so, they returned to the new Barca Town.
