If the recipients were common people, I would have asked them through merchants such as Christina, even if they were in the distant land of Briaria.

However, in this case, not only would the letter not be delivered properly, but there was also the risk that the contents of the letter might be read without permission, or that it might be stolen.

Therefore, we decided to ask Banagher, who is an expert in diplomacy, to help us.

For the time being, they were going to leave a person there to continue their search, and next, they were going to move to Briaria and other countries to get information.

From here, a messenger in a Valkyrie would go to Banagher with the letter, and from there, it would be handed to the other party through appropriate channels to the Bryllian Magical State.

"Yes. Yes. When we were working on the planned construction site, we found this kind of oil when we dug a hole. We thought that this was the only place in particular, so we dug up the surrounding land to investigate, and found several places where the same kind of oil came out. That is why I reported it to you. I was wondering if the oil would mix with the river water if this area were to be turned into a river.

With Lassen's ability to see what's under the ground, he might be able to pinpoint where the oil is coming from. We might have to rethink our construction schedule."

How much is in the ground and to what extent is it affecting the land? I would also like to know how deep the oil can be recovered by digging holes with your magic.
