Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 264

 

Air Fleet



Airship


A ship that moves through the sky made possible by the best technology of the empire.


Ships may be assigned a model, name, and number


There are 27 ships heading to the center of the continent.


All of them are now connected to a ship with a bridge in the center.


The central one is the largest ship


Dragonica, the first ship of the Drakon class


Equipped with 10 super large magic reactors


It is a ship that is capable of semi-permanent flight.


The other 26 airships


The Drakon-class ship is connected to the Dragonica and powered by it during normal navigation.


"Connection completed!"


"Okay. Half-board rest! Go to Dragonica for dinner on your shift!"


I give orders to my subordinates proudly


Well, actually, it's a little great


After all, I am the captain of the 14th Drakon class ship, the Filgya.


I'll be 45 this year, and I used to work as a fisherman in my hometown, a port town.


However, after the continent collapsed, the sea became rough and ships could no longer sail.


No, on the contrary, the ship sank and I lost my job.


The fishermen around me also lost their jobs and scattered.


Then there were those who fell into banditry


Some went into civil engineering.


Some went into the army.


I joined the army.


And for some reason, because of my experience as a shipwright and captain, I've become this great.


"Hey, did you hear what was on the menu today?"


"If I remember correctly, it was spicy grilled meat and herb bread."


"I see. Hurry up and eat. We'll take turns."


"I'll do so!"


This guy definitely wants to spend a lot of time relaxing at Dragonica.


The role of the Drakon class is to escort the Dragonica and protect it from the elements.


For this reason, anything that is not necessary for combat or navigation is kept to a minimum.


Dragonica, on the other hand, is luxurious.


There are also books and board games.


Meals are available at any time of the day.


If Drakon is a flying fortress


Dragonica is a flying mansion.


Therefore, everyone applied to be assigned to Dragonica.


And only a select few were chosen to join its crew.


"Captain"


One of the sailors calls out


"What's up?"


"I have the item from Dragonica."


"Did you get it?"


"Yes, for the number of people."


My subordinates waiting on Filgya's bridge look at me all at once.


"......Alright, let's open it."


""""Alright!""""


On behalf of the crew, I carefully open the paper wrapping the package.


"Ooh!"


There was a goddess there




----------




"Ahchoo!"


Suddenly, Wince sneezes loudly.


"What's wrong?"


Could it be the cold?


We're in an airship named Dragonica, heading for the center of the continent.


It's at a pretty high altitude.


"I don't know, but I'm getting chills?"


"Here's a blanket, wrap yourself in it."


"Yes, thank you. Shiro-san."




----------------




Something called photography was invented.


It is a machine that can leave a perfect and complete picture of a scene.


"Uooh! How beautiful Wince-sama is!"


"Sedona-sama's shiny black hair... I can't believe I can look at this at any time!"


"Yukikaze-sama's innocent smile! Just looking at it is enough to relieve my fatigue!"


Of course, this is a top secret from the great people.


If they find out, they'll probably kill us.


"Captain…"


Something happens that destroys that happy feeling.


"What's wrong?"


"We don't have enough harnesses to use when heading to Dragonica."


"…When was the last time you checked?"


"Just before we left."


"How many?"


"Three."


"What about the wires?"


"I'll check now."


I had a bad feeling about this.


This is my intuition as a sailor.


"Report back as soon as you have confirmation. Send a message to Dragonica, tell them about the harness! And keep the pictures hidden, and don't sell out your companions if they find them, okay?"
