Part 2
Once the storm had subsided to some extent, the ship was very stable.
Thanks to my Relic I am always comfortable in any kind of situation, but as expected of a state-of-the-art ship, Kruz and the others did not complain about it at all. Maybe I won’t get seasick or have tinnitus in my ears even if I take my Relic off.
As this ship is used to transport important people of the country, each room was not inferior to the inns I had stayed in before.
The furnishings and furniture were nice, and the bed was *fukafuka* soft. If Liz had been here, she would have wanted to take a look around the ship, as she loves to explore such places, but alas, she had already been struck by lightning and fell.
I peeked out of the window in the room several times, but there were only black clouds outside and no kites or my ghost friends in sight.
My childhood friends are all reckless, so it won’t be surprising if they try it again, but I wonder if they realized that it is impossible to do it in the middle of a storm. But I think the idea of flying on a kite is a bit out of touch with reality, no?
As for the food, I don’t know the details, but it was excellent. The meat, fish, and vegetables were all delicious. They probably have a dedicated chef here. It seemed that we would not have to use the food that I forced Sytry to prepare for us. Everyone, who had been in a hurry when the storm hit, had calmed down to some extent.
While *gorogoro* rolling on my bed, I look at the carpet which was actively moving around in one corner of the room and tilt my head.
“...... I wonder if we’ll crash......?” (Cry)
The anxiety I had been feeling had quite calmed down.
Considering my bad luck, it is quite possible, but from the looks of Franz-san, this ship seems to be very robust. He knows that multiple Dragons have attacked us before, so he must be quite confident that we will be safe even if we are attacked by Dragons.
Of course, it is better if we don’t crash. The ship should arrive at its destination, the capital of the Country of Sand, Toizant.
Although Toizant is a small country compared to Zebrudia, it has a flourishing culture of its own and is said to have a reasonably high level of technology, so there is probably no great concern about being attacked within the country.
“...... So that means that the endgame is a few days aways, heh.” (Cry)
I feel like it has been a while since I have been thinking about something serious.? Well, I am not thinking about the escort plan, I am just thinking about when it will end though......
As I was *butsubustu* mumbling to myself, I heard a knock at the door.
I hear Term’s voice from the other side of the door and hurriedly get out of bed, *urouro* wandered left and right while pretending to be working.
And he said set up...... But I didn’t do anything though. His lip service is so perfect that it is shocking. I would also like to grow old and become a nice middle-aged man like him.
§
Thanks to Franz-san’s efforts and the Term’s serious concerns, nothing particular happened and the boat trip went smoothly.
The airship was very stable, but it didn’t seem to be that fast, so it will take three days to reach Toizant if all goes according to schedule.
The first day we were tossed inside a storm, but after that, no one came to call me, and I had a surprisingly peaceful time.
As seen in the briefing, the color on Franz-san’s face was getting better and better.
Aren’t we going to arrive safely if we keep going like this? Just as these words were beginning to cross my mind, it came.
While I was playing with Kruz in my room, Franz-san came running in.
The expression on his face was not fear or impatience, but confusion.
“《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 His Majesty is calling you.” (Franz)
“? Did something happen?” (Cry)
There was no commotion. When I stared in wonder, Franz-san frowned and said.
“............ Look outside. I am sure you noticed――But we are not getting out of the storm at all.” (Franz)
“Eh......” (Cry)
I inadvertently looked out the window. Outside, the sky was as dark as ever.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
Tadada as Cry said this is not just a regular storm XD
They are so going to suspect Cry knows something!
Tchao à plus!
Footnotes
Here Term think that the meaning of thanking her is “kill her”, you know like when a mob wants to thank someone by sabotaging the brake on his car XD
