Acceleration
I was the last one to return to the bridge of the airship.
Yukikaze greets me without turning away from the console.
"Welcome back"
"The detour was a failure..."
"Right. Be careful next time."
Tenrei and the sailor knights are also busy controlling the airship.
"Are they pursuing?"
"I can't confirm it at the moment. I scattered flash grenades in the back."
"This ship was carrying something like that."
"At Sedona's suggestion."
Sedona, who is in the direction Yukikaze pointed, puffs out her chest.
Well, it sure was helpful
"I used it just in case, but I don't think it was necessary."
It's a good idea to praise her up and then drop it like that.
"I didn't see any flying objects nearby."
"Then how did my copy get to the other side of the Imperial Capital?"
"Running?"
"That's absurd."
They were probably hiding a vehicle or some form of transportation somewhere.
"If that's a copy of Shiro, it won't be able to catch up with this airship."
"That's right, it's faster than me."
Yukikaze boasts that this airship can reach 950 km/h.
And that we were at a comfortable speed of about 400km/h until we encountered my copy.
"I'm almost at top speed now."
"Are you talking about a safe area where the furnace won’t break?"
"That's right. If I don't mind it breaking, I can go up to 1200 km/h."
Is it faster than the speed of sound?
But I don't want to lose our return flight because of that.
This vast and dark world
What will happen if we lose our way home?
"What if we can't go home? Well, the only thing we can do is have the Empire come and pick us up."
"Can they find us?"
"Isn't that more likely than finding a grain of sugar in the desert?"
It's a world without beacons or landmarks.
Even if we're fine, the sailor knights won't return home alive.
While we were having a casual conversation, Tenrei interrupted.
"Yukikaze, we're almost within range."
"That was quick, can I leave it to Tenrei?"
"I get it"
With that reply, Tenrei leaves from the bridge.
"What are you guys doing?"
"We're going to irradiate it with ultraviolet, infrared and X-ray."
"What?"
"We'll check the material of the tower from here."
"For what?"
"It's better to know than not, right? If we're prepared, we won't have to worry."
I can't imagine what the usefulness of knowing the materials is, though.
"We'll have some free time from now on, so Shiro and the others should rest."
"Is it okay?"
"I'll leave the battle to you, so leave this to us."
"I see, then I'll leave it to you."
Me, Wince, and Sedona try to leave the bridge.
"Yeah. Ah, and Wince."
And right after opening the door, Yukikaze stops us.
"What is it?"
"No s*x"
"Why!"
"There's no way I'd let you do it in the presence of the other knights! You have such a loud voice every night!"
"It won’t feel good if you don’t say it out loud!"
"Our lives are at stake, so what's the point in making the knights frustrated?"
It will drag on.
"Sedona, let's have something sweet to drink for now."
"I agree"
"How many hours do you think it would take?"
Of course, it's about the argument between Wince and Yukikaze.
"Maybe 3 hours..."
After that
I heard from the knights that they had been arguing for three hours.
