Chapter 188: Women are Strong
"Shisu!"
Wince embraces Shisu with tears streaming down his face like a waterfall.
"Father, are your eyelids red?"
Sedona was surprisingly calm
"Well, it's the first time in my life that I've cried so much. Don't you cry?"
"I'm moved, you know? I'm happy too. Is it because I'm a dragon?"
Come to think of it, I've never seen Edgeworth or Lizardman shed a tear.
I'm sure it's not that they don't have tear glands... or anything like that.
Maybe they don't have the ability to relax their lacrimal glands with emotion.
"So, is that Shiro-dono's son?"
Julius says in an uninterested tone of voice.
But we're not fooled.
Wince's crying makes him teary-eyed.
"You're pretty tearful, aren't you? Shall I tell you a touching story sometime?"
Like the story of a boy who goes to heaven with his dog looking at paintings in a church.
"No thanks, but is this ship going to work?"
Ah, the airship. I forgot
"Come on! It's time to get back to normal. Shisu."
"Yes, Father!"
You're looking good.
Father is happy
"Are all the nine people you brought here?"
"No, there are people in the forest who are going to collect magic stones. 21 people."
"I understand. I'd like to go out there myself... but they might come back."
"Also, those 21 people."
"Is something wrong?"
"The commander of the airship is..."
"Shirooooooooooooooooo!!!"
At that moment...
I hear a voice in the distance.
I've heard that the destructive power of an object depends on its weight and speed.
The speed of that thing must have been at least 150 kilometers per hour.
I estimate its height at 120 centimeters.
If you think about it as an ordinary person, it probably weighs about 25 kilograms.
There was no hesitation.
I could have evaded it.
But the airship was behind me.
That was the moment when evasion was no longer an option.
"Obu~ aahhh!"
With all my might, I stomped my feet on the ground.
I protect my head, neck, and internal organs first.
"Fatheeerr!"
"Motheeerr!"
It was impossible.
Unable to withstand the blow, I was blown away.
Unable to kill the impact, I roll on the ground.
"Huh? Are you okay?"
"I'm not okay... now..."
Without a doubt, this is the most damage I've ever sustained.
And the culprit is
It was Yukikaze, whom I had not seen in 10 years.
----------------
"Start the mana channel at minimum!"
"Light the furnace! Output is 5!"
People move about busily in a room full of sound tubes.
"Blade stable! Rotation rate rising"
"Fin. Belly, back, tail, everything is working!"
The airship lifts off the ground, swaying slightly.
"Hmm..."
"What's wrong, Sedona?"
Behind me, Sedona and Wince are talking about something.
"I thought it felt good to fly without wings!"
"Comfortable, isn't it?"
"Ah, easy might be appropriate."
We really pushed Sedona too hard.
"Shiro!"
Yukikaze calls out to me from the highest seat.
"Is the position I just mentioned okay?"
"Yeah! That's where we live."
"Okay. Then turn 75 degrees! Forward!"
""Roger!""
--------
If it performed as it should, it would reach the fort in a day! Said Yukikaze.
But the current airship speed is a little faster than a horse, I say.
It's good that it's comfortable. It's a good thing, but...
"I'm not as busy as I thought I'd be..."
Yes.
I'm bored.
I'm a little tired of looking at the night sky
Even our horses are quiet.
Julius' bull is sleeping soundly.
I have no choice but to stroll around the airship by myself.
"Um, Count Edgeworth. Isn't that right?"
I was called out to by a girl
One of the nine people who were with Shisu.
"Hmm? Ah, Count... is it? Still..."
"Yes, it is said that Count Shiro is still alive and well within the kingdom."
"And you?"
"Excuse me. My name is Harper El Istraze. I am the daughter of the Istraze family."
Istraze?
Istraze… Istraze…
"Baron Watinas?"
"Yes, Watinas is my grandfather."
I'm glad I got it right.
Actually, it was a good guess.
"Hmm? What's a nobleman's daughter doing here?"
"Yes! Actually, I'm Shisu Edgeworth-sama's official..."
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly another woman appeared screaming
"Tch!"
"Ah! You just clicked your tongue, you thieving cat!"
"No, no, I'm not doing such vulgar things. I don't live in such a barbaric world as yours."
"Ah, Shiro Edgeworth-dono! I am Cornales, the daughter of Druknen!"
Ah! Druknen's daughter!
"Is Druknen well?"
"Yes, he is protecting His Majesty every day as the captain of the royal guards. Anyway..."
Hmm? I have a bad feeling about this.
"Please approve my marriage with Shisu."
"I beg you to approve of the marriage between me and Shisu-sama."
Hmmm?
"What are you talking about?"
"As you can see..."
I see!
So this is what you call a "scene of carnage"!
Good!
I had nothing to do with that.
"I met Shisu first!"
"I had a clearly more fateful encounter!"
Luckily, the two are restraining themselves.
"Invisible"
With a small snap of the fingers, I cast a magic of invisibility.
The best way to escape from trouble is to run away
Shisu
I'm sure you'll have a hard time from now on
But don't worry
Get through it with youth!
