Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 382

 

Supply



"Have they come to pick us up?"


Another 5 days later


Finally, the airship came to pick us up.


"Commander!"


The captain is shouting from the airship.


"What's wrong!"


"Please return to headquarters immediately, now!"


What's going on?


"While we were sailing, we received a message from headquarters! It seems that Wince-sama has collapsed!"





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





The color of the Commander's eyes changed the moment he heard the captain's words.


Not figuratively, but literally.


His eyes were red like a dragon's.


And without any hesitation, he flew through the air, releasing a shock




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





"Wince!"


How anxious must I have been?


When I returned to headquarters and heard from the knights that Wince had been transported to Ginkei, I immediately headed there.


"Commander!"


Sarah and Alex are in the room where Ginkei is installed.


And Wince is on a stretcher.


"What's the situation? Is Wince safe? Ginkei!"


"No problem when Shiro Edgeworth arrives. It was later than that."


Ginkei speaks as usual


Perhaps because of that, I was able to regain my composure to some extent.


I mean, I'm the Commander.


Isn't it bad to show such a distraught appearance in front of the cadets?


"...What's the situation? What happened?"


"For now, let's wake up Wince Edgeworth."


"How?"


"Don't you know?"


"I don't know."


"That's strange. In Earth, wouldn't a Princess wake up with a kiss from a Prince?"


"…Ha?"


What kind of nonsense are you talking about, you idiot?


"For now, please kiss her."


"…Ha?"


"It's a kiss. A kiss. It's best to wrap your tongues together as thickly as possible and let the saliva flow."


I don't understand what it means, why do I have to show it in front of you?


There's also Sarah and Alex.


It's not something you should be showing to children.


"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"


He started yelling.


"If it's a joke, I'll turn you into a soccer ball later!"


I have no choice but to kiss the sleeping Wince without understanding the meaning.


Of course, I didn't put my tongue in, and I didn't produce saliva.


"......!!"


"Nghh!"


The moment we kissed, Wince's eyes fluttered open.


And her arms are wrapped around my neck


"…………!!!"


Wince covers my mouth, as if I were a feast for the hungry, thirsty, writhing wraith.


"...!! Buha! Hey Wince!"


"Not enough! I need more!"


After a slight breather, my lips are sealed again.


No!


This is not good for education


Alex... is just observing normally.


Sarah's face turns bright red and she hides it with both hands, but I can see her staring at me through her fingers.


What's going on!


Explain, Ginkei!


"I think it will last for about 30 minutes, so please just listen."


Ginkei continues to explain


"Winnce Edgeworth's body consists of Shiro Edgeworth's body from the neck down."


That's right


"You already know that Shiro Edgeworth is a synthetic dragon manufactured by Elfriade long ago."


What about it?


"Synthetic dragons need almana quantum, or mana, to operate. If it is a synthetic dragon, it has the ability to refine and store almana quantum in the core of its body."


In other words?


"I examined Wince Edgeworth when she lost consciousness this time, and there is no core in her body."


Because it's my body from the neck down?


"If it was on the ground, there would be no problem because the surroundings are full of almana quantum and mana, but in this deep world, there is no mana."


"I! See! Hey! Get away!"


"Aaahn! More!"


I pushed Wince off by force.


"Haa... haa... so this time, when Wince collapsed..."


"She ran out of fuel."


"You didn't notice? Ginkei."


"After all, Wince Edgeworth is an unprecedented person."


But it made sense


"That's why I felt so strange when I went to the rescue of the crashed airship."


I also ran out of fuel because there was no mana around me.


"…What do you mean?"


"Hmm? It's because I couldn't pick up speed during the flight. It makes sense considering I didn't have enough fuel myself."


"That's impossible."


"What?"


"Shiro Edgeworth's core is a top-notch Almana quantum refining engine. It's inconceivable that it could not be fully operational."


"…In other words?"


"Something may have gone wrong when I transplanted your body into Wince Edgeworth."


"You were the one who transplanted it, right?"


"...Searching for exculpatory statements. [Tehe-pero]"

(TN: "Tehe-pero" is a word that is used when someone makes a small mistake, which is not crucial and tries to make the atmosphere relaxed. "Tehe" is colloquial, and it is often used when someone feels a little embarrassed and tries to laugh it off with a mischievous and charming smile. And "pero" means a state of sticking the tip of a tongue out.)


Does he think he'll be forgiven for that?


"Um…"


"Are we allowed to hear that?"


And I completely forgot about Sarah and Alex.


"Ginkei, anything to gag them?"


"Here is a prototype visual inoculation forgetting device right here."


"Is it safe?"


"Yeah, for a moment they will forget everything with a blindingly strong light."


"What's the effect?"


"They'll forget everything."


"How much do they forget?"


"They'll forget everything. Everything they've ever experienced in life."


"I reject it, you idiot!"


All right.


Let's do something


...I have to do something about it, right?
