Chapter 230: Report

Chapter 230: Report

I teleported to Volton and made an appointment with Margrave Volton. Fortunately, it seems he was coming back to his territory in a few days, so I’ll be using that time to prepare to cross over to the Demon Continent.

Crossing over to the Demon Continent would be no problem for my ship. The problem was our manner of travel on land after getting there instead.

「Hmm, if there are no roads then.........the sky?」

In this world, there are several ways to fly in the sky.

Wyvern Riders who tame Wyverns raised from the time they were in eggs.

The complex magic 『Fly』 , a combination of the Null attribute magic 『Float』, which utilizes magic power that has not taken on an attribute, and Wind attribute magic.

「Well, creating things is my specialty, so aiming to devise a flying vessel with 『Fly』 is the right answer.」

I think an airplane shape wouldn’t be a good match. Neither would a helicopter. A flying boat might possibly be the simplest, but this form has a high degree of freedom when it comes to flying in the sky. Moreover, I am a former Japanese, and I also loved old mangas and animes. I mean, the Stern Tower of the ship made of magic metals and Water Dragon materials was ripped off from a certain Space Pirate’s ship. So if I’m going to make a flying vessel, then I should try to emulate something that came out of a fantasy novel or a game.

While visualizing all sorts of designs in my head and thinking them over, the day of my appointment with Margrave Volton came.

「It’s nice to see you again, Iruma-dono. Master will come shorty, so please wait for a short while.」

「Yes, it’s been a while, Xervus-san. Thank you for meeting me at such a busy time.」

Chamberlain Xervus-san of the Margrave Volton family guided me to the conference room.

After about 30 minutes of waiting, the ever splendid door opened and Lord Margrave Godwin Volton entered.

「Iruma-dono, long time no see. You seem well.」

Even if we did leave the boy from my old country known as Akira alone, we couldn’t do so with the Evil Spirit that produces dungeons.

「But the Demon Continent is a harsh environment. There is a reason why there isn’t anything but city-states established.」

「Yes, that is why I am thinking of a method of transport. We will be preparing more than necessary.」

「Of course you would. Samandour Kingdom seems to have an indeterminate trade with the city-states of the Southern continent, but from what I hear, there are no paths between the cities and those lands are dominated by monsters. Well, perhaps because of this, there are no thieves, bandits, and the like.」

In the Demon Continent, aside from the fortress city-states, settlements such as farming villages and towns didn’t exist. Naturally, there were no thieves or bandit hideouts either. It was a land that was primarily composed of the Beastkin with high physical prowess and the individually great Mazoku who had high battle potential.

「Well, at the very least, I will report it to His Majesty. Iruma-dono, you must have a reason to go to the Demon Continent.」

「Yes. Even if we look for the Pope, we don’t have a single clue. We will do the search bit by bit, as much as we are able to. Since I also have work in the Sanctuary, I don’t think we would be able to stay for very long.」

I have to devise a way to camp in the Demon Continent. We don’t know how strong the monsters there would be, so I have no idea if the barriers we have right now would be enough. Partly because of that, we intend to make frequent returns to the Sanctuary.

「The postwar processing with Triaria will take a while. I will talk to His Majesty to have a conference with the different nations to ask if they could provide humanitarian aid to Sydnia first.」

「Sorry for all this trouble.」

「Not at all, everything after this point is our job.」

After that, I received a bit of information regarding the Demon Continent from Margrave Volton, and that is the end of that day’s report.

Now then, I gotta think about a lot of things.
