บท 75: The Final Entrance Exam [4]

Several kilometres east of the capital city of Karsia, there exists a small forest by the name of Urnio Woods.

While the forest was known to be infested with monsters, the strength of each individual monster wasn't too high.

With almost all of them being below the second rank.

As for the stronger beasts?

The Karsian royal army dealt with all of them.

Killing any of the beasts that would be considered a threat to travelling caravans.

Karsia, being a city that was renown for its nightlife, needed a way to prevent beasts from attacking their alcohol shipments.

If a country like Karsia as dependent on alcohol as Karsia ever had an alcohol shortage, that would put many of its citizens out of a business.

Such was the case in the past.

Travelling merchants were frequently the targets of the many beasts that inhabited the nearby forest area.

Since the main trading route was quite close to the forest, the passing merchants would unknowingly alert the beasts.
