CH 84

In the meantime, the personnel and equipment I had arranged for, gathered one after another.

“Yee-hah!”

The first to rush were the elite Centaur corps that the Demon King’s army is proud of.

I think I just saw something I shouldn’t have, but I must have imagined it.

“Vaito Senpai! I’m here!”

“How did you come! You’re the Viceroy of Tuburn!”

Filnir rushed towards me from the entrance and shouted. There are also 200 of the best guards he has selected.

Filnir smiled and swung his spear.

“I’ve left Tuburn to Seiches, so it’s probably okay!”

I wonder if he was forced to do something later.

I was going to make Seiches the commander of the Centaur corps … well.

Filnir laughed happily and showed me his hoof.

“Look! Master made it according to your order!”

“Oh, this?”

I asked my master to cast the magic of water walking on the horseshoes for the Centaurs. It’s a simple consumable item, but it’s a magical piece of equipment.

When I walked on the water myself during my training, I noticed that the surface of the water is a vast plain. If a horse were to charge through here, it would be able to exert considerable strength.

The problem is that if the horse falls, the jockey will drown. But since the centaur soldiers are infantry, they will not fall.

If the centaurs were to rampage freely on the water, they would be quite a force to be reckoned with. They are highly mobile and can handle spears, bows and swords. Besides, they are brave.

“How is it going to be the same as when running on the ground?”

“Yeah, it’s perfect. Except when you fall over, it sometimes floats upside down.”

Oh, it’s only the horseshoe that’s magical … If you design it to cast magic on your whole body, you won’t have the same outcome.

“Then, will you do the training for recovery and rescue in the event of a fall? I’ll be counting on you.”

“Yes, Senpai!”

Filnir and others have carried large weapons from Tuburn. They are all custom-made products.

“This is a fixed crossbow. But is this really useful?”

“Maybe”

The disadvantage is that the range is a little short, but it is powerful enough. Even if the enemy isn’t an island octopus, it can kill him.

“I also had a catapult made, but I wonder if I can kill it by throwing rocks?”

“Don’t worry, it’s not a rock we’re throwing.”

For the time being, I’m thinking of two ways of operation, but if I explain one, everyone will definitely oppose it, so I won’t say it now.

I think I can fly.

Werewolves.

That afternoon, the Dogman’s Crossbow and Engineers arrived from Rune Height.

“Vaito, it’s been a long time!”

“It smells like the tide!”

“I want to eat fish!”

“So much water! Can I swim !?”

We’re not here on a field trip, you guys.

Well, these guys won’t be intimidated by monsters anyway.

I’m looking forward to it.

Meanwhile, the ship was being steadily prepared.

“Okay, the Engineers! Start refurbishing the warship!”

“Yes!”

Warships in this world are basically amphibious assault ships that transport soldiers. In the fleet battle, the enemy’s ship is struck by the bow of the ship, blocking its movement, and then the soldiers board.

But if you try to fight sea monsters this way, you won’t win.

Therefore, the warship is used as an aircraft carrier to carry the Centaur corps.

There are five ships, both old and new, so we can have about 40 Centaurs on board.

On the other hand, it is the transport merchant ships that are responsible for the shooting.

Although the durability of merchant ships for transportation used for trading is inferior to that of warships, the loading capacity is large. They don’t have to ram around with impulse angles, so they don’t need to be so thick and strong.

The custom-made large crossbow shoots a harpoon-like arrow for whaling. That’s why it’s very heavy.

I don’t know how big or durable the enemy is, so I plan to load a lot of arrows. A spare crossbow is also installed in case of failure or damage.

In addition, catapults are also piled up.

In that case, I feel that the merchant ship is easier to use, so it’s strange.

No, come to think of it, did the galleys disappear after they started loading cannons?

Huh? I wonder how it was … I could look it up if I had the internet.

It’s frustrating sometimes.

As I twisted my neck, Garsh yelled at the pier.

“Hey, you and these dogs are destroying our warship! Stop it!”

“Oh no, we’re not breaking it. It’s a bit small for the group, so we’re just refurbishing it.”

“If you get rid of everything like that, you won’t be able to put it back!”

You don’t like the dramatic wooden remodeling by Takumi?

“I thought about mounting a human infantry on board as a naval battle specification, but it’s too wide to be useful at sea. And it’s not stable when walking on the water. Give up.”

“Do you know how much material and money it cost me to build that? …”

Garsh held his head, but he seems to have recovered by himself because he was the type of person who was quick to dismiss things.

“Well, isn’t it? Hey, can you kill the ‘Devil’s Sea’  properly?”

“I can’t guarantee it, but it’s probably okay. Leave it to me.”

“You’re a real stickler…”

Aside from mysterious monsters, I’m relatively familiar with the ecology of octopuses. I’m not particularly afraid of their appearance.

After all, I was Japanese in my previous life.

I am proud to be a natural enemy of the octopus.

After a while, the dragon people arrived this time. The Dragon Fire Engineers and their escort, the Blue Scale Knights.

Technician Kurze salutes me and told me with a straight face.

“Mister Vaito, this time you must follow our instructions.”

“I know”

With a straight face, technician Kurze pressed on.

“You must absolutely follow our instructions”

He obviously does not trust me at all.

In fact, I don’t trust myself either.

I know that, but when I transform into a werewolf … I can’t help it.

In the meantime, I asked if the thing I ordered was ready.

“Did you get the stuff I ordered?”

“Since it is a material for dragon balls, I managed to prepare it …”

With that said, Technician Kurze stared at me.

“That manufacturing method is top secret. It is made with advanced technology that is incomparably advanced than the “Dragon’s Breath”.”

It’s probably electrolysis.

The former king seemed to be familiar with chemistry, and I saw that his master could use electric shock magic, so I thought he was making it.

But let’s keep silent.

Then Technician Kurze sighed a little, as if he had guessed my thoughts.

“It’s as if you can see through all of this… You’re indeed, Gomoviroa’s high-ranking younger disciple.”

If anything, it’s thanks to the chemistry class.

Technician Kurze squints at the sea breeze and mutters.

“At first, I was expecting to be told to pack “Dragon’s Breath” in a barrel and bring it again …”

“Because the former king has forbidden me to play with fire.”

“It’s nostalgic. I’ll just say that this is just as dangerous.”

“I know. I want to leave the handling to Kurze.”

Since I am not sure about the waterproofing technology of the Dragon people, I considered the possibility that gunpowder could not be used because it was damp.

With drying magic, you can dry it to crisp, but unfortunately I can not use such a convenient thing.

At that time, I suddenly remembered my previous life as a student.

I have to thank my friend who belongs to the chemistry department for telling me an interesting story.

You wouldn’t think that I would be reincarnated as a werewolf and end up fighting a big octopus.

If you reincarnate here, you can buy sashimi as a thank you.

However, I don’t have wasabi, though.
