76 Episode 76 "I needed a lot of excuses to give the slave girls a break.".txt (2/2)
They say that in the original world, you set a detailed schedule and follow it, and then you end up dragging your upper limit relationship at work, but you don't have to mimic it that much, right?
This trip is just a substitute for a paid vacation and a way to reward everyone. I'm sure you've had a tough time with the incident with the sea dragon, and more importantly, you've found a way to make a living, so we can celebrate that.
It's an important holiday for me as well.
I'll be able to enjoy myself freely, so try to think like that.
...... Huh?
Is everyone else sticking around?
Cecil has a bright red face and is clenching his fists as if he has made up his mind to do something.
Rita is looking at me with vacant eyes.
Aine is holding her chest and nodding her head, giggling.
Rafilia crosses her fingers as if she is praying, ”That's master,” she says, ”Oh, Rafilia understands.
But why is it that Iris next to her takes out a piece of paper from her chest and writes something on it? What do you always put in that place? Iris.
Anyway, do you guys understand?
'Yes! 'Nagi-sama, I understand very well,' said Cecil.
...... That's what Nagi is thinking, I understand,” said Rita.
Nay-kun, don't mislead your sister ......,” said Aine.
It's not worth mentioning anymore, master,” said Rafilia.
'That's Iris's big brother! And, Iris.
Good. I think they understand.
The slave girls each raised their hands with a look on their faces and then got into the carriage.
Now we'll be able to get some 'paid time off'.
I can't just let the cheat characters work and not have any time off. ......
So I climbed into the coach's coach seat. Sitting next to me is Cecil.
Aine, Raphilia and Iris are in the carriage.
And Rita starts walking alongside the carriage. She says she doesn't like cramped places, and she feels more comfortable outside.
So, we leave.
It's still early in the morning. So we didn't have to see her off. (Though there are some regular soldiers lined up around the gate of Ilgafa. There's also a captain with a horned helmet. I knew the lord is also somewhat concerned about it.
The horse takes in the will of Cecil and I and starts to walk with a priority on riding comfort.
And so we pass through the castle gate and go to the street.
We left on a 'company trip' in another world.
The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that it is a good idea to have a good time.
”Won't you be shaken, my dear? ”If you don't mind, would you like to speed up a little bit more?
'I'll be fine as is. Also, please don't do that, young lady: ......
While holding the reins, Cecil looks embarrassed.
The two horses seem to have decided that they are the masters between me, Cecil and the journey, and they are taking care of everything. The carriage doesn't rock too much and the speed is steady.
They seem to be veteran carriage horses, and they know the bumps and ruts of the city streets. Thanks to that, they're able to pick the lines that are easy to pass by themselves. This is also the effect of the cheat skill, 'Life Negotiation 《Hood Negotiation》'.
A few hours after we left Irgapha, the carriage is walking fast.
The carriage is going as fast as it's walking at a fast pace.
Rita, who was riding on the roof of the carriage a while ago, is now walking next to the carriage. She said, ”Don't worry about it, I'll get in on my own when I'm tired,” but she seems to be doing okay for now.
''The next town is 'Sharka's Town, the transit point,' right?
I check the map.
It's a two-day journey to the sanctuary, so we'll be staying overnight on the way. Shalka, the relay point, is located between Ilgafa and the resort. It is said that there is an altar there to pray for the safety of the journey.
''The town that received the blood of the great 'Tenryu Blanc Sharka,' Nagi-sama.''
'I didn't know there were other types of heavenly dragons besides sea dragons. I didn't know that.
''That's right. Nowadays, the only one whose existence has been confirmed is Kerkator, the sea dragon, but in the past, there were also celestial dragons, earth dragons and demonic dragons.
I wonder how old that is?
I'm sorry ......, but I don't really know what that stuff is all about.
Cecil closes his eyes as he searches his memory, then shakes his head apologetically.
I wonder how old it is. I wonder if it's not in the records of the demon race.
''Cecil...... try out the 'ancient language' and say 'sea dragon Kelkator' and 'celestial dragon Blanchalka'.
Yes. ”Tenryu Blanchalka” ...... Huh? There's no 'Mr. Kerkator' in the ancient language, is there?
The 'ancient language' is the magic language used by the demon race and is quite old.
I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world, and you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.
''Well, it's possible that the demon race didn't know about sea dragons, so we can't be sure, though.
That's Nagi. I didn't notice that much.
But 'Tenryu Blanchalka' isn't around anymore.
I'm sure of it. There's a piece of the body left in the next town.
We've already figured out what's left.
It should come into view when you're a little further along.
And while we were at it, I also checked the recent history of the Demon King.
The Demon King is currently battling the kingdom's regular army across the ocean and beyond the mountains. Currently, the battle is going back and forth ...... is the latest information. Of course, I didn't have any information on the brave men being summoned from another world, and what the Demon King was like, depending on the story.
The common denominator is that the demon king was the one who brought together the demons that originally existed in this world. The only thing he is is a very bad guy──that's all.
On the contrary, there are records that the sea dragons and celestial dragons were basically on the side of humans.
However, the celestial dragons lived on top of high mountains and were rarely seen on the ground. From the ground, they could only be seen flying at best.
The reason why there are records of the death of the Tenryu long ago is because its body fell from the sky at that time.
Its torso fell down and created a crater-like structure where the ”Magical Experimental City” is located. To be precise, the city was built on the site of the crater. There are dungeons and underground ruins around, and it's said that the celestial dragon may have tried to show humans where it was located.
Legend has it that the Mishurira has always had a warm climate, and that the abundant scales of the dragon that were peeled off the ground made it easier for people to live there. These crushed scales are then transformed into a mass of high quality magic, which dissolves into the earth and heats the surface of the earth.
A piece of the Tenryu fell into the town where we are staying today, and it is now used as a talisman for travelers.
According to the map, we should be able to see it soon...
'Excuse me, master! ”Get away from me, okay?
Suddenly, I heard a voice right next to us.
Rita, who was trotting along beside me, looked at me.
”Sure! Open up the place now!
I raise my voice to keep up with the sound of horseshoes.
''A place...? Hi, na, Nagi-sama!
I picked up the red-faced Cecil in my arms. I'm sure you'll be able to find it in the same way that you can. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. You seem to be nervous while holding the tassel, though.
''To.
Shuta, Rita flies to the driver's seat. It's a light movement that doesn't make you feel its weight.
Not only does the carriage not shake, but it doesn't even make a sound of landing, which is the physical ability of a beastman.
”I can soon see the symbol of 'Sharka's Town'. I can't wait to show it to Cecil-chan.''
All right. Then I'll give you Cecil.
”Nah, Nagi-sama and Rita-san, please don't communicate with me without permission!
Cecil, he's laughing and angry with just his voice.
I'm glad I brought her on the trip after all. In the back of the truck, Aine, Iris and Rafilia are glued to the scenery around them. It's the first time I've traveled like this through my old world.
The road is lined with trees on the right side of the road. You can see the sea through the gap. On the left is a deep forest. It seems that this area has not been settled yet. After a while, the forest breaks off and the road becomes a gentle pastureland.
Beyond the meadow, we saw a low wall.
That is the town of Sharka, where we are going to stay today. It's small compared to Ilgafa, but it's properly surrounded by walls. Beyond that is a reddish-brown brick building. There are some church-like structures and a tower with bells. However, the thing that stands out the most overwhelmingly overwhelms it is...
''You see, Cecil-chan. That's 'What the Heavenly Dragon Dropped'.
Rita has Cecil on her shoulder before I know it. He's on top of the carriage, but Cecil, on his shoulders, is twitching and stopping. There's a sense of balance in the beast, but the horses are slowing down with care.
'That's ...... part of the body of the Heavenly Dragon.
I heard Cecil mumble in dismay.
I can see every detail clearly when I get this close.
A huge, triangular thing protruding from the top of the ramparts.
It's pure white in color. It looked like a bat's wing, but it was much larger than its size.
It's not like a house or a tower or anything like that. It's about the size of a building in my world. The surface is made up of a white, unblemished membrane with a bone-like bulge at the end. Maybe that's what they used to fly in the sky. It's impossible, considering the aerodynamics and all, but this is a fantasy world.
I look behind me and see Aine, Raphilia, and Iris poking their heads out the window, looking at the same thing.
Is this the first time we're all seeing it?
What we're looking at are pure white dragon wings. But it has no body.
The root is buried deep, deep into the ground, and all you can see is the part that's above ground. Still, it's huge enough.
That is the symbol of the city of Sharka, the wing of the celestial dragon Bran Sharka, which is the deity of the travelers' altar.
Rita said, and the horses cried ”Hihin” as they answered.
That's where we'll be staying today, our first stop.
