After the Fact Report
"So that's how it is. Thanks to Shiro's efforts, we succeeded in establishing just barely friendly contact with the goblin nation to the east."
From there, it took some time, but we were able to return to the Empire without incident.
Then, at night, I reported back to Giran.
"Just barely... well, if Yukikaze says so, I guess so."
Shiro and the others returned to the temple.
The explanations and reports will be long and I will talk about some difficult things in the meantime.
"So the central investigation was a complete failure."
"Even if there are no casualties, it's an accomplishment."
"...As an emperor, I must always aim higher."
"That's tough."
Giran's value as an emperor is to always consider the interests of the empire.
He is not pleased that he got 50 out of the 100 jewels that fell into the lake.
He says he should regret that he only got 50 pieces.
"You're going to go bald one of these days."
"That's a needless worry. My family has had hair for generations!"
"Is that so?"
"I guess so."
"………"
"What?"
"Did you also investigate Sylvie’s family?"
"…………Ah!"
He knew
"Well, let's leave that for later, and I'll give the engineers and soldiers a month's vacation."
"Is one month okay?"
"Any more than that and it'll slow down. After that, we'll overhaul the airship."
Then, when everything is finished, the engineers and the central wind countermeasures
"You haven't given up?"
"Of course not."
"We're also proceeding with the plan just as you said."
"Does Shiro know?"
"We're keeping it a secret, but I think it will be revealed soon. Everyone is extremely loyal to Shiro."
"I see... maybe I should tell them first."
"I think that would be best, since it would be easier to mislead."
"How's it going?"
"It is now possible to fire up to 60 shots per second, and we have confirmed that it is safe. However, the recoil is strong and it is difficult to hit continuously."
"The best way to control recoil is to increase the weight of the main body."
"I've received a report that if you raise the weight any further, the running dragon will suffer."
"The weight issue is really difficult."
"Should we just use daggers as melee weapons?"
"I'll keep that in mind."
"I'll let the development team know. The huge size has already been completed. Stability, safety, and hit rate are all high."
"The magic cannon was too powerful."
"I only saw an early model when I was young, but has it advanced that much?"
The early model that Giran saw.
That was probably before Shiro came back.
This incident was probably plotted by Sylvie's uncle Hasdinus and Nahaftain of Kusuof.
"The power has increased 5 times, the range has increased 10 times, and the accuracy has increased 100 times."
In exchange, the terrain would be gouged out and post-war processing would be difficult.
When I tried firing it at an animal carcass, it splattered and all the soldiers threw up.
"Once we get Shiro's permission, we'll release it later. Let's equip it on the airship."
"Well, if it's this well-equipped, shouldn't Prelati be afraid of it? No, I don't think so..."
"That's not going to happen. They say they're from outer space."
First of all, I don't know what the outer space is.
I've heard about it from Ginkei, but I've never seen it or reached it.
It's amazing that once you get past the blue sky, a jet black sky awaits you.
"Preparation for Prelati, understanding the central situation, and the situation in other countries"
"There's a lot to investigate. It's not something that can be done in one generation."
"I guess we, the dragon family, will have to take care of that."
I'm worried about the central government, but I'm also concerned about the other countries.
The Empire's continent cannot be thought of as the only place where Prelati's secret activities take place.
In fact, even Geldaria... Prelati was also working behind the scenes with Geldarinne, even though he was dead.
"It's impossible to say that other countries won't invade by acquiring Prelati's technology."
"That's right. The worst thing we can do is send Shiro on the front lines."
Of course, such a strategy is strongly opposed.
Even though it looks like this, I love Shiro too.
I don't want him to suffer.
But
That thought did not come true.
We didn't expect it at all
I never thought they would behave this badly.
(TN: The next arc is a sad one, sigh*)
