Part 5

After that, the barrier did not seem to crack again.

I prayed one more time in my heart for Leticia and Lilys safety and left the place.

I activated [Auto Mapping] and searched for Iriss location.

It seemed that she had already left Aunen and was heading for the royal capital.

I activated Divine Speed Blessing EX and accelerated at once.

As I flew across the ocean, I saw Iris in the distance.

I deactivated Divine Speed Blessing EX for the time being and waved my hand toward Iris.

She came this way immediately.

Kou, how did it go?

Actually

I told her that there was a crack in the barrier and that Leticia and Lily had gone inside of Zogral.

Okay, I understand. Somehow, Im sorry.

Iris muttered with her eyes downcast.

Since were putting the burden on the two of them, we should do our best, too.

Yeah, thats right. For now, lets go back to the royal capital.

Yes, youre right.

We nodded to each other and took a course toward the royal capital.

Then, when I was about to activate Divine Speed Blessing EX

A telepathic message arrived from the lazy dragon.

He wants you to stop by Mahoros Island.

The voice of [Full Assist] echoed in my mind.

It seems that the lazy dragon Tidal has contacted me.

I mean, he could use telepathy or something, huh?

It seems that a line of thought was constructed between Kou Kousaka and the lazy dragon by the previous summons.

I see.

But still, what is he doing there?

Iris, can we stop by for a bit?

Yes, of course.

Iris nodded and continued speaking further.

Since its Kou, its not just a side trip but something necessary, right?

Yeah. Ill explain the situation on the way.

And then I activated Divine Speed Blessing EX and was about to go to when it suddenly occurred to me.

Kou, whats wrong?

The [Space-Time Domination] also has the ability to warp. Can I use it for a while?

Yes. You are going to test the function for tomorrow, right?

Thats right.

So once again, I activate [Space-Time Domination].

A birds eye view of myself from above floated in my head.

I specified a point 100 meters away from here, and I thought of myself and Iris at warp speed.

Immediately afterward, the surrounding scenery changed with a floating sensation.

It seemed that the warp had succeeded.

Its a strange sensation, isnt it?

Iris said as she looked around.

I dont really feel like Ive moved.

Me neither.

The movement stops for a few tenths of a second before and after the warp, and we are distracted by the destination.

I wonder if I can get used to this and cover it.

For the time being, lets try to move to Mahoros Island by repeating the warp.

After repeating the warp several times, we reached the sky above Mahoros Island.

As expected, I was getting used to warping, and the back-and-forth time loss was disappearing.

I looked down and saw Tidal.

This time he was in human form, waving at us with a friendly smile on his face.

We slowly lowered altitude and landed.

Oh, Kou-dono, Iris-dono. Thank you for coming.

Thank you for lending a hand yesterday.

By the way, Tidal was fighting with us, wasnt he?

Enjoy your dinner!

Make sure you have plenty of energy for tomorrow!

When we stepped into the ships restaurant, we were greeted by a large number of Helper Slimes.

The menu was a truly sumptuous buffet of meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, and everything in between.

We took our picks and sat down at our table.

Delicious. I wish Lily and Leticia could have eaten with us.

Thats after the battle is over, isnt it? We will make sure they are well-fed!

After we defeat Zogral, well have a party! Ill prepare a more sumptuous meal!

Im looking forward to it.

Iris said this with a smile, but there was a somewhat dark shadow on her face.

Since Lily and Leticia were both not here, its not surprising.

However, being depressed at this point would not guarantee the safety of the two.

I should put my feelings to rest and make sure Im well nourished.

After lunch, I went out of Blaznir to see Milia off.

What are you going to do after this?

Im going back to the Adventurers Guild headquarters. I still have a little business to attend to.

Do you want me to give you a ride over?

No, thats okay. The knights are supposed to pick me up.

While we are talking like that, several knights come this way.

Are you Milia-sama? We have come to pick you up by the order of King Octo.

It is wonderful that knights come to pick you up.

It is the consideration of the king, isnt it?

Yes.

One of the knights nodded at Milias words.

If something happens to Milia-sama, Kou-samas heart will not be at peace. If that is the case, it will affect the battle with Zogral so we have been asked to take Milia-sama to and from.

I see

As I was convinced, Milia looked up at the sky at Zogral wrapped in barriers.

Lily-san and Leticia-san are doing their best, you know. Since I cant fight, Im going to do my best here! Kou-san and Iris-san, please take a good rest today!

Yeah. Ill do that.

Yes, of course.

It doesnt look like you two are going to get much rest

Well, thats for sure.

No matter how much I try to change my mind, the thought of whether or not its okay to continue like this keeps coming back to haunt me.

Its all right!

The one who raised a cheerful voice was Surara.

We slimes will take good care of Master-san and Iris-san so that they can get a proper rest!

Fufu, thats a relief, isnt it?

Milia smiled and patted Suraras head.

Then, Ill take my leave. Good night, both of you.

Good night.

See you later, Milia.

After I said that to Milia, she left Blaznir with the knights.

We watched them go and returned inside.

Oh, were free to go from here.

Yes, lets do that. We can take the same room as before.

Right. Well, Ill see you later.

Yeah, see you later.

Ill go help clean up the restaurant.

And so, Iris, Surara, and I split up.

I headed for my private room on board the Blaznir.

This is the room I used to use when going from Fort Port to the royal capital.

Well, there is talk of returning to the guest house, but in case of an emergency, it is easier to deal with the situation if I stay on board the Blaznir.

Besides, I have a delicate feeling about going back to the guest house now because of the grand send-off I received.

After entering the private room, I took a shower and sat down on the sofa in the room.

I looked at my watch and saw that it was around ten oclock in the evening.

Tomorrow, around noon, I am supposed to go around the city and collect the memorabilia.

What I can do until then is Right.

Lets take a bit of time to look at [Creation] for the first time in a while.
