"Cut the tree… It is so nostalgic. This is the first method I used to practice my swordsmanship!" Although doubtful, Arcelia took the sword in her hand and walked to a big black tree, and made a powerful cross slash move.
"Squeak!" At the moment when Arcelia's sword hit the big tree, it suddenly let out a scream, as if it were the screams of a slaughtered animal before it died.
"Eh? What's going on! Didn't you say that these dark souls don't have consciousness? How could they make such a miserable scream?" Arcelia was startled by the screams of the big tree, the sword in her hand only cut a few centimeters deep into the tree.
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!" the big tree's scream continued, as if it was being tortured.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Helen didn't care about the screams of these big trees. She punched the big tree in front of her that was constantly screaming with her fists that could smash the ground. Each punch would leave a huge black hole in the tree.
"Oh this?! Probably these dark souls still retain a small part of their biological instincts. So when they are attacked, there will be this kind of reaction, you don't need to care about them. Just knock them down like Helen. After you cut them down, there will be no more unpleasant sounds." Aiya said unconcernedly.
"Is that so?" Arcelia frowned, but finally raised the sword in her hand and chopped down at the big trees.
"Boom!" "Boom!" Under the attack of Arcelia and Helen, the big trees were quickly knocked down one by one. However, in the process of knocking down these big trees, Arcelia and their ears were so annoyed by those screams. The screams made by those big trees were really terrible.
After cutting down the trees, Arcelia and Helen both sat on the ground to rest. In fact, it didn't take much effort for them to cut down these big trees, but the screams made by these big trees in the process of cutting down made them very uncomfortable. That kind of noise was really terrible.
"The trees are cut down now, what should we do next? It is impossible to build a big ship with only a few of us. Do you have any plans?" After a short rest, Arcelia asked Aya. Born in a country known for shipbuilding, she was very interested in how Aya would turn these woods into a ship. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
"Huh! Don't underestimate the familiar spirit Aya! Building a ship is nothing, and it can be done in about a week. This wood is really good. As expected of my great work." Aya flew over the big trees that had been cut down and answered Arcelia's question casually.
"One week!! How is this possible! It will take at least half a year to build a ship that can withstand storms on the sea!" Arcelia looked at Aya floating in the air in shock. She couldn't believe what she had just said.
"Don't compare me with those ordinary people! I am a familiar spirit who is proficient in almost all types of auxiliary dark magic! Just wait and see! Okay, this is all I need from you and Helen today. Helen, you can return to the master. Arcelia, find a place in the forest to practice by yourself! But be careful not to be discovered by the master!" Aya said slightly angrily. After speaking, she continued to look at the wood.
"Yes! Sister Aya!" After Helen answered Aya coldly, her figure disappeared in a flash.
Arcelia picked up the pink rabbit she had put on one side and walked slowly to the other side of the forest.
‘Mhm! What kind of magic circle should be carved on these woods? Dark Mist is a must. Without it, the magic beasts in the sea would definitely attack the ship from time to time. Our ship is not a giant steel ship like the Titan Poseidon. Death Thorns is also good. If there is an accident and a magic beast is close to the ship, it can warn us in advance. And that and that… Ah! There are so many magic circles that I want to engrave on it! But these woods simply cannot withstand the power of too many magic circles! It would be great if there were magical plants here! It's a pity that there is no such thing here!' Looking at the broken woods in front of her, Aya fell into distress.
"Daddy! It's time for class!" Helen, who left the forest, found Ulysses who was still practicing swordsmanship by the sea, hugged him from behind and said childishly.
"Uh! Helen! Don't suddenly hug someone from behind!" Ulysses, who was suddenly hugged, was so startled. He almost swung his sword and cut it back. Only until he heard Helen's sweet voice did he lower his guard.
"Mhm! Okay!" Helen's cheerful answer came from behind, but Ulysses knew that she wasn;t listening, because he had said this several times. But Helen still did the same thing.
"Helen, what do you want to learn today?" As Cherie was taking a magic course with Rasputin recently, only Helen had come to his class during this time. But in this way, Ulysses could teach her more about the human world. He hoped that when they returned to the continent in the near future, Helen would also be able to adapt to life on the continent.
"Hmm! Daddy! I want to know what you said yesterday about the countries on the continent. Can you teach me?" Helen let go of the hands that hugged Ulysses, sat down opposite Ulysses, and asked curiously.
On their head, there were a few gray seagulls flying around. In their ears, the sound of waves crashing against the shore came. The golden summer sun shone on the silver-haired girl opposite him, and the beautiful long silver hair looked particularly dazzling in the sunlight. The refreshing sea breeze brought an intoxicating atmosphere of the sea, and also blew the long hair of the silver-haired girl flying around. The silver-haired girl didn't pay attention to these, but looked at him curiously with her silver eyes that were more beautiful than the stars in the sky. At this moment, Ulysses was lost.
He stared at the silver-haired girl in front of him blankly, and only now did he realize that she had grown into a beautiful and lovely girl. Although there was no change in body and appearance, the expression in her eyes was no longer as confused as when she was born. The eyes that looked at him were no longer the simple and dependent eyes that they used to be, but the same complex eyes full of admiration, like, and excitement like Cherie.
‘Uh! What am I thinking about! Helen and Cherie are still kids! Probably because I am the only boy on this deserted island, so they like to be with me so much! After returning to the continent, this situation should change.' Ulysses shook his head vigorously, trying to throw his absurd idea into another world.
‘Ugh! It seems that being intimate with Aya is really harmful! Because Aya also looks like a cute teenage girl, my thinking about girls of this age has become abnormal. But Aya's actual age is countless times older than these girls! She is completely different from them, but although they are different, they still look like…' Although Ulysses tried hard to put aside these unclean thoughts, the more he wanted to put them aside, the more he thought about it.
"Daddy, what's the matter? Is it difficult to teach about the countries on the continent?" Thankfully, Helen's voice stopped him before his delusion reached a certain level.
‘Supreme God! What was I thinking just now! Helen and Cherie are relying on me! But I actually…' After waking up, Ulysses felt ashamed of what he had just thought, his face flushed suddenly, and he didn't even dare to look at Helen in front of him.
Although Ulysses wanted to escape from here right away, he didn't want to end Helen's class like this. He knew that she really liked this hour of class time, so Ulysses had to start today's class reluctantly.
"On the continent now, there are many, many countries. But the relationship between these countries is pretty good now, there is no major war, it is a very peaceful era. As for why there are so many countries but there have not been many wars, this is because of the war of the undead three hundred years ago.
"Because the unknown demon king and his hundreds of millions of the death army disappeared suddenly instead of being defeated, all countries are afraid of large-scale wars that will cause a lot of deaths. The kings and emperors are afraid of the emergence of a second terrifying demon king commanding a large number of dead spirits. Therefore, a contract was signed to never launch a large-scale war. But……" Saying here, Ulysses suddenly paused.
"Although there is no large-scale war, there are small-scale wars, but those kinds of wars are small-scale wars without large-scale deaths. The kingdom I live in is called Taya, which is one of the countless small kingdoms on the continent. ......"
Helen listened carefully to every word of Ulysses, but her eyes kept on Ulysses's face, and the immature and delicate little face was filled with an expression of incomparable happiness. For her, this hour of the day alone with Ulysses was her most precious moment. In her little heart, she sincerely hoped that this hour would never pass.
