Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 389

 

To the Imperial Capital



In a word.


The country, the empire, was a world beyond human understanding.


There were too many different types of people passing by.


Of course, there were humans.


Fox people, wolf people, cat people


Lizardman and goblin are walking normally.


Even goblins, who were thought to be impossible to understand, could understand and speak human language.


Wyverns flapped their wings in the sky.


There are so many flying over people that it almost covers the sky.


But no one cares about that


Everyone is chatting and laughing.


On the main street, such a wyvern is walking proudly down the street


A knapsack that matches the wyvern is attached to its back.


When the wyvern removes its knapsack, its figure shrinks in light.


By the time the light disappeared, there was a human with dragon eyes.


It doesn't seem to be able to speak words, but communicates through hand movements.


They are full of life.


As I was walking with King Olasha and Seltense, several stores caught my attention.


A store with a sign saying Narcium Bookstore


There were beautifully bound books


I can see a shelf that says [new books]


All of them are neatly arranged with neatly arranged books.


All of them neatly arranged with beautifully bound books


"Ah"


Seltense heads to the store.


King Olasha also follows.


"No, no, is this okay?"


"No problem"


Since arriving in the empire, imperial soldiers were escorting us.


As expected, we can't cause any trouble for them.


It might displease the Empire.


"Please don't do anything that will affect our face too much."


I'm from Boldoi, but I've known him for a long time.


Maybe that's why I feel like I've been nagging him more lately.


"It’s delicious, isn’t it?"


"If that's what you say, then it must be true. But not now, please."


"I see…"


Aren't you becoming more and more like Lucette?


I don't know if I'd call it unprecedented or selfish.


It's no good


Lucette was a genius in terms of charisma and leadership.


But as king, you can't refer to him as such.


Where is the king who will take the initiative in planting seeds in the dead desert? You said that four years ago, right?


………That's right!


Those seeds were plants imported from the Empire.


When Seltense reported the Death Desert to the Empire, a large amount of seeds were sent to them.


20% of the Dead Desert is now green grassland.


I should have known at this point that this is a strange country in many ways.

"To get to the imperial capital, you need to get on this locomotive."


After the flying ship came a snake-like carriage.


Moreover, the carriage is as tall as the walls of a fort.


"W-we're going to ride in this thing?"


"I see, you don't have locomotives there, right?


"No, something like this only exists in the Empire, right?"


"No? The Empire, Lola's country, Geldarinne, the Holy Kingdom... maybe they don't have it yet. Anyway, all three countries must have had it, so what's going on there, Seltense?"


"The northern half of the Holy Kingdom have them, as there's a possibility of terrorism by the Hero faction smoldering in the south."


And in the Empire, every town, village, and hamlet on the continent has a road built for locomotives.


What's going on?


The sheer unreality is making me dizzy.


A carriage called a locomotive. The carriage begins to move.


It's slower than I expected...but it's getting faster.


"Seltense, we have four days to reach the capital, is that right?"


"That's a locomotive from 20 years ago. Now it takes two days."


"I see, wake me up when it's time to eat."


With that, King Olasha falls asleep in his seat, arms and legs crossed.


How can you sleep!


I can't help but feel restless.
