Sighting
A small boat arrives at the entrance.
"Thank you for your hard work."
The knights lived with elves and conducted research within Tuega.
The substitutes
"Fifteen people have been substituted. Do you see anything unusual?"
"No, the elves are quiet. Ah no, they've been really into cooking lately."
"Cooking? Do they have that big of an appetite?"
"No, they're obsessed with making it."
"Ah, I see. How were their skills?"
"The speed of improvement is incredible."
"Hmm, Yukikaze-sama's hypothesis was correct."
"What kind of hypothesis?"
"Elves are ignorant but smart, so if you teach them, they will learn at an accelerated pace, just like fairies."
Yukikaze-sama’s bold praise of herself made me burst out laughing.
"That's hilarious!"
"Seriously! Now, bring someone to replace me."
"Yeah... hmm?"
"What's wrong?"
"No... what is that?"
I point my finger at the discomfort
It's a place on the ocean filled with debris and garbage.
"Why is there no trash in that place?"
"Ah, really. No, wait, it's not just there, is it?"
Gradually, floating objects become uneven.
―――――――――――――
"Investigate immediately!"
I hurried back to Harkon Nosaga and reported to Yukikaze-sama.
"Assuming the substance is toxic, wear a gas mask and suit. If it is still the case..."
"I understand. If there is a chemical reaction in the suit or mask, we will evacuate immediately. We will never overdo it."
"Alright. Act on the premise that there will be no casualties."
What appeared on the sea were bubbles.
Something is spewing out from under the sea
"Thank you for reporting, First Class Federico. Is there anything wrong with your body?"
"Yes, it wasn't that big when I discovered it, so there's nothing unusual about it."
"Really? But just in case, please go see a doctor."
"Yes, I'll be on my way right away."
