Chapter 45: A General's Power

It's the third day of my prolonged stay in Carbina.

The third day since the first camp was cleared out and I publicly transformed a man into a Ghoul. It is also the second day since the Caravan was sent out to Aste for trade and news about the happenings in the Kingdom of Ire.

That's right, I finally learned the name of the Kingdom I'm in.

It turns out Mathilda is a treasure trove of unexpected but useful information. For instance, the cave I came out from was likely in the Holy Theocracy of Veril, the place that housed the HQ of the Synagogue and many of the Synagogues high officials.

The Theocracy also exerted control over the rest of the continent through its position at the centre and just happens to be overflowing with riches and gold despite having only one port city.

Or at least, that's what Mathilda says.
