Introduction to the Continent of Seiria

The northern part of the Continent of Seiria - the territory of Archduke Aivern.
There is a harsh cold and rough terrain that even the most advanced monsters have a hard time adapting to, let alone humans.
It is rumored throughout the continent that the monsters in the North are incomparably stronger, and their numbers are endless.
There is no slavery, and those who commit such acts are severely punished, so all of the former slaves live in gratitude to the Archduke of Ivern.
In order to go to this North, you must pass through the "Gateway Fortress" built by Archduke Ivern.
In this gateway fortress, regardless of rank, you must go through the entry procedure to enter the Northern territory.

In the western part of the continent of Seiria, the Kingdom of Pyran exists.
This is where Shiro, who summoned you to another world, is located.
It is a multi-ethnic nation where humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes, mermaids, and half-humans live together, and there is no slavery system.
Nature is quite well-maintained, and there are many mineral deposits, so it is a region that dwarves like.
Because it is a country where many races gather, it is the second largest country in terms of population and national power in the entire continent of Seiria.
Also, it is a country that has the characteristic of encouraging mercenaries and adventurers at the national level and not sparing much support.
The mercenary guild that received support from the country has prepared a "Beginner's Dungeon" for beginner mercenaries to help them gain experience.
In addition, from the point where the western border of the Kingdom of Pyran ends, further westward, there is a primeval forest that is incomparable to the nature that exists within the Kingdom of Pyran, and since the primeval forest is overflowing with poisonous insects and venomous monsters, it is an unknown place that has not been explored yet and we do not know what lies beyond it.

Central part of the continent of Seiria - The Aether Empire exists.
The Aether Empire is a country that promotes slavery and excludes all races other than humans.
Even though the name of the national religion is the Church of Life, they persecute non-human races as inferior.
Nevertheless, the reason the country is maintained is because it is the best in the continent of Seiria, with a military force and population that is far superior to any other country.
That is why no country or race can point out their ideology or religion.
So, when foreign races come to this Aether Empire and commit crimes, even the guards not only ignore and condone crimes against foreign races, but there are even guards who take the initiative to discriminate against them or openly commit crimes.
Because of this situation, it is truly the worst country for foreign races, and it is a country they will never go to unless it is absolutely necessary.

In the eastern part of the continent of Seiria, the Kingdom of Batel exists.
The eastern part, where the Kingdom of Batel is located, is a desert region where humans, dwarves, and sand elves mainly live.
Because of the extreme heat during the day and the extreme cold at night that is characteristic of desert regions, slavery is encouraged to maintain the labor force.
However, unlike other kingdoms or empires, the Kingdom of Batel is not united as one, but rather is scattered into over 50 tribal units, so it is a kingdom in name only,
It is a country that is busy passing off even defensive actions for invasion by other countries, so it would not be strange if it were to split at any time.
On the other hand, the desert area of the Kingdom of Batel is also called the land of opportunity because there are many relics from the old times, treasures from the old kingdoms, and hidden dungeons,
On the contrary, the Kingdom of Batel takes advantage of this and tries to gain profits by imposing excessive taxes on adventurers and mercenaries, so it is also a country that is badly known to mercenaries and adventurers.

In the southern part of the continent of Seiria, there exists the Kingdom of Kalimdor.
Most of the territory of the Kingdom of Kalimdor is covered with rainforests.
However, this country is a country that could collapse at any time, and even the greedy Aether Empire considers the Kingdom of Kalimdor as something they have nothing to gain.
The reason is that some warlike demons lead monsters and demons every day and invade from beyond the southern border of the Kingdom of Kalimdor.
The Kingdom of Kalimdor is in a serious state where most of the country's knights and soldiers are sick due to the daily war, but the current king of the Kingdom of Kalimdor is wise enough to be called the wise king, so he is barely able to maintain his lineage by maintaining the front line.
Although the foundation of the country is in danger, they hire mercenaries to continue their existence, even if they have to pay a lot of money, but because of the high risk, it is the region with the strongest love and hate for mercenaries.
There are hidden ruins and relics from the past sleeping in the tropical rainforests within the territory of the Kingdom of Kalimdor, but because of the daily war with the Demons, they are not able to pay any attention to such things.

Lastly, one more thing, let me give you some information. The continent of Seiria is definitely what we call a fantasy world.
However, there are no such things as active skills, only passive skills, and the people of this world don't even know about the existence of passive skills.
Then you may wonder how magic exists, but you can think of magic in this world as being like science in the world we live in.
Just as science developed out of necessity, magic developed out of necessity in this world, so magic is a special skill that is learned and used like science.
