Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifty Five: Sea God Realm (I)

――

Far away, I feel like I hear voices.

From the other side of the swirling storm, I feel like I hear a voice calling out to me. I don't know if it's my fault. Voice. Far, but powerful. It is stuffed with cutting feathers. I'm desperately trying to tell you something. He doesn't know what he's in such a hurry about.

In the storm at the bottom of hell, he's just, because he's being flirted with.

"Dear Sir!

My voice is getting clearer and clearer. The voice resembled a scream. I have no idea who's crying or why. I can't imagine. You can't even think about that because you're playing a stormy fierce fight at the bottom of the earth, at the end of the earth. But that's not something that can be ignored, because I feel like the scream is reaching his heart directly. I wonder why. I feel like I can pull it up strongly.

"My lord!

So finally, he opened his eyes, knowing that the scream belonged to one important to him. A familiar face is reflected in the blurred vision. She's a brunette. The desperate phase probably indicates something of a chopped situation, but in the blurred thought of a semi-awakened state of Setuna, it was unlikely to be able to derive an optimal solution. Words that come out of your mouth, that's what it is.

"Rem?"

"You're finally awake"

Rem had a full grin as to whether he was satisfied just hearing Setuna's voice. Until now, there was a change in shape, like where, and the servant Setsuna clapped, but anyway, she caressed her chest down to reassure me. I'm sure it's not a big deal. Look around with such certainty.

It's in the same cabin. It is a qualitative product, and all the conditioning products and other things are known, but there was no problem. It's too much for a shelf with personal belongings, a small desk, and a chair. In addition to that, there is a sleeping area where Setuna sleeps. It's never cheap, but it doesn't feel like a luxury product. That's not why it's hard to sleep, but rather falls into the comfortable category for Setsuna.

"Morning."

"It's noon"

"Noon...?

"You're oversleeping"

"Totally."

Setuna looked reluctant in the way Rem said it. I slept too much, probably because I was too comfortable sleeping on the bunk. Plus, the boat shakes to sleep just fine. A shake like trying to wake up, but saying you can keep sleeping more. In fact, there's nothing wrong with staying asleep. In the middle of a long voyage. There is nothing you can do during the day when you wake up.

When it came to what Setuna had done on the Melissa Noah, since sailing off the island of Benoa, there was only one way to discuss Rigford and Niewe, do routine workouts, ask sailors about their sailing journey, or just spend time with Rem.

I am bored.

Unlike the boat's busy sailors, Setuna has nothing to do but be a passenger. There can't even be a sailor asking the ship's amateur to help with something. Not to mention Setuna being an important figure for the Western Empire. There's no way you can ask someone like that for anything.

In the end, Setuna had more time to blur for a day when the sun was out.

"So... why were you looking like that again?

"It's because your husband won't even say anything about it. You were really worried, weren't you?

"Worried...?

Setsuna doesn't understand what Rem has to say.

"What do you need to worry about?"

"It's... your husband can't wake up like this, or something"

"Then you can't stay awake either."

"... that's right"

She looked like she was just thinking a little, and she just laughed.

"Then it might not be bad"

"What?"

"If I can sleep with your husband forever, so can that."

Rem goes like that and smiles. I'm not sure if that's what I meant, but I'm honestly happy that you think it could at least be, but it was the opposite word that came out of Setuna's mouth.

"I don't like it."

"Well."

I guess Lem frowned because Setuna's reaction was unexpected.

"If you're asleep, you don't even know if you're here."

"My lord..."

I don't want to miss you.

"Me too... right"

A deep nod as Rem understood Setuna's statement.

Then for a while, silence ensued.

The ship is shaking. On the waves, no matter how huge the structure, you can't help but shake it.

Demonic ship Melissa Noah. At first glance, it just looks like a giant sailboat. It was specially crafted by the Empire to collect and create excerpts of technology. Still no match for the power of the sea.

"By the way, is the voyage going well?

"According to the sailors, it's going very well."

"Right..."

"Well, it seems unclear if we can reach Lyohan."

"Well, that's no choice."

Setsuna laughed as she could.

The continent was scattered about two years ago by the “Great Destruction”. The earth wasn't just torn apart. The earth and the earth were separated by the crust fluctuations that must have struck the entire world, and the sea water filled between land and land. I have no idea where or which land there is.

According to General Rigford's story, the Western Imperial Army has hitherto come across several islands and has not necessarily been placed in line with the continental map it once was. The reality is that we cannot even consider where the Vashtarian earth of Lyohan exists.

By the way, the place where the Western Imperial Army stopped on the road was a number of islands where countries like Laksha, Gibelle, Ishika and Crude existed, each stretching their legs to Benoa because they were unable to secure their own power. As a result, the Western Imperial Army was able to make a deal with Setuna, so as far as they were concerned, that long journey didn't make any sense at all. Instead, can we even say that Setuna alone is more powerful than borrowing power in other countries?

Not arrogant, but calmly so disconnected. For example, it seems very unlikely to be an enemy to one Setuna for scratching the remaining force in the present Gibelle. Even if Gibbel had an armed summoner, it wouldn't be that many. Setsuna must be the only one who can handle it. It would be much more efficient to incorporate Setuna as a force of war. Incorporating Setuna into the power of war means that Lem also follows. Rem has a strength that cannot be overwhelmed by a concurrent armed summoner.

"Hey, why don't you go check on the deck?"

"We need to have lunch first."

"Hmm... is that so too"

At that time, Setuna's belly rang, as I recall, it must have been because Rem pointed it out to me.

The Demonic Ship Melissa Noah is one of the most proud Demonic Ships of the Western Zaion Empire.

Compared to the ultra-large demonic ship Adelhein, it's about two turns small and inferior, but I couldn't think of it that way if I just looked at Melissa Noah. It was enormous enough to be too large enough to allow up to more than five hundred passengers on board a maze-like ship, with countless cabins. Regardless of the fact that there was a dining room, it was equipped with toilets, bathrooms and lounges, and efforts were seen everywhere to make the long voyage a little more comfortable.

The Empire seemed to have a wealth of knowledge of the sea and ships, only thinking about entering the outer sea the most of the three major forces.

The empire, like the other two major forces, invaded a small group of nations, which was banned as a nation. Prohibiting territorial expansion in itself, maintaining the territory and devoting all efforts to stabilizing the domestic situation and enhancing the power of the war were the codes that dominated the three main forces, beginning with the Empire, and were the cause of the silence that has lasted for centuries. Turns out that was the plan to reach the true purpose of the gods in the middle of the final war, and until then, no one knew as one. Perhaps even the Emperor of the Empire or the King of the Holy Kingdom did not know the truth?

Anyway, it seems that the empire, which was forbidden to expand its territory, needed to hit somewhere with the mighty desire for ambition that its vast national power would generate. That's what General Rigford calls it, the outer sea.

Adelhein, the emperor of many generations ago, made his way around the outer circumference of the continent, he said, part of it. Anyway, believing that it is a country with a strong longing for the sea and that there is still a land to see at the end of the sea, he said he has carried out many ships and failed each time. To refine navigation techniques and build new ships, roll them out into the sea. Eventually, Imperial Navy navigation technology became unparalleled throughout the Ills Valle - although we are talking about Imperial Navy officers.

Setuna gave her thoughts on the Empire as she listened to such naval officers.

This is the country where Neewe was born and raised. I only knew part of what kind of country it was, a glimpse through Niewe's memory.

I don't know the true Zion Empire.

To know, for once, we will have to go to the territory of the Zaion Empire, but that day will surely come. Setsuna promises to be a force of war for Nina and the Western Empire. Promises must be fulfilled. Otherwise, Setuna won't be able to stay on her own.

Of course, in order to do that, it is first of all a prerequisite to find Lyohan.

"Nice day."

"It's really sunny... you feel good"

Looking sideways at Rem making a rare stretch, he looked overhead again.

I don't see one cloud in the sunny sky, and the falling sunlight is warm enough to make me feel the coming of spring. February was almost over and March was approaching. It's getting warmer and warmer than it gets in the cold. Most of all, the ship seems to be rather far from spring in relation to its aim to the north, but today's sun was warm enough to make us forget that.

From aboard, on Melissa Noah's deck. The sailors work there, and the two walk on the deck, taking care not to disturb the sailors' work. The sea from above the ship is vast everywhere. Looking back, you can no longer see land. Fifteen days have passed since we left Benoa. It was natural to lose sight of it.

Though the sea breeze blowing through was pleasant, she didn't really smell the ocean, and Setsuna wondered.

Seeing how Lem enjoyed the sea breeze next door, that blew up quickly though.
