Chapter: 1866
The bandit leader coughed after seeing Cale�s gaze that seemed to be telling him to explain and then proceeded to speak.
�This place was said to be full of monsters in the past. The monsters roamed in Leeb-An City as well as the surrounding region, including Mount Leeb.�
Cale�s gaze headed toward Eruhaben. Eruhaben was already paying attention to the bandit leader.
Monsters.
They were the reason that the stone pillar had been placed here.
�That is why no kingdoms nor nobles were able to extend their reaches into this region.�
�The mercenaries gathered here instead.�
The bandit leader nodded his head at Cale�s comment.
�Yes sir. The merchants soon followed after noticing that the mercenaries were here. The adventurers showed up as well. Soon enough, this free city had been developed. The monsters slowly dwindled after that as well.�
��The number of monsters went down?�
�Yes sir. That was why the other kingdoms tried to take control of Leeb-An City that ended up a free city, however, the mercenaries and merchants had already gained a lot of power prior to that. Furthermore, although the number of monsters had decreased, there were still enough monsters to scare people away and keep this as a free city.�
The number of monsters had decreased.
Cale�s gaze headed toward Ron.
�I knew that Leeb-An was a free city, however, I didn�t know about such a history.�
Ron was originally from the east region.
There was no need for him to know the details about a small free city in the northwest region of the Eastern continent.
� Human, human! Why do you think the number of monsters went down? I�m curious!
�Right?�
Cale was curious to know how the monsters in Leeb-An City that required the Super Rock to create the stone pillar to defend had disappeared.
Eruhaben seemed to be having the same thought.
However, Cale had another thought at the same time.
�What about the mayor?�
The mayor.
There needed to be a public figure who took care of the free city. JrNovels.com
