- Day 53 of training.

It's clearer today, clearer today. Today is the long awaited day of travel. More to the point, it is the day of aspiration 'Damaya', the country of the waiting merchants of Arezel. Me and Nell are on our way to the departure site where there is a ship that Allezel arranged for us, taking Lilivivia, who has completely become a maid of honor with her three daughters, Hal (the gob man in the backpack), Chinatsu and the knife.

"No, it's a beautiful day by the time it's clear. I'm in the mood for a picnic."

"Derris, are you serious?

"Yeah, not at all"

I drooled a lie earlier about the sunshine, etc., but the weather is pouring snowstorms today. No, I'm being slapped. This is in the mountains headed to Snowtail, the great power of the northern part of the Ziva continent. Are you lucky if you think of it as a workout, we're in the middle of great, rough weather only today.

"Sa, it's cold......!

"Chinatsu, move your body more! Shadow boxing while running!

"Li, Master Lili, while climbing the boulder, it's hard to carry it all the time...!

"It's okay, Jabba. This is also a workout."

Despite how strong they have become, Hal and the others look hard on this rough welcome in the North. Especially since the knife is wearing a lily that I just want to make it easier, it will be harder. But if I say I carry it, Nell's sharp gaze will pierce me. Come on, knife, just a little patience.

"I mean, Delis, more importantly, why is the rendezvous point snow-tailed? I'm not on a level of inconvenience?

"You have no choice, because that's how Arezel arranged it. He said he had an unofficial ship for everything, and he did it to avoid the eyes."

"It doesn't have to be informal...... ha, that's okay. Now, let's go."

Snowtails are surrounded by rugged mountains and are even more natural fortresses known as extreme cold lands. For this reason, all visitors from neighboring countries are close to nothing unless they come from one another, and to sneak around a lot, it's a place to hit and put on. Quaitet, now a world-famous trading company, has made its way to places like this. Don't be afraid, Quaitet.

"Gauuuu......!

The roar of the beast echoes in the snowy mountains hit by heavy storms and snowstorms. Whoa, ingredients found.

"Master. If I'm not mistaken, there's a large group of white wolves at the end of the road."

"There you are. It's Snow Mountain, so 10 or 20 White Wolves."

Hmm, I can't see the back with this snow, but are you still there? A local monster around here, White Blitzwolf famous for killing wrecked adventurers. Yeah, is that a Level 3 or 4 monster? If it was a group, it would have been a pretty good monster to eat and kill griffons.

"Toko. I'm hungry. I ate juicy meat."

"What, do you want to leave Master Lily alone?!?

"Lily, haven't you been all over this place lately? You don't even see him walking around, do you?

"The overwork was sneaky. Mom's assault on the meeting, making her play too much at the wedding."

"Derris, you can't do this. Completely luggage."

"Well, when I see Arezel, I have to be in the Great Eight demons, and he wants me to recharge it while I can."

"Yiyan, your husband is lovely! Hold me!"

... Should I dump it in Snow Mountain after all?

"Master, I've already cleaned up."

"It's been quite an exercise"

Hal and Chinatsu wiped the blood attached to their fists and knives and were already in the material demolition work. Yeah, without any particular explanation, the White Blitzwolf herd has been wiped out. You were explaining that I was the one who did it, and you sound like an idiot.

"Freshly hunted meat... right. It's time for lunch, shall we rest here?"

"In this weather, is it? Um, preparing a tent for snowflakes..."

"No, you don't have to. Nell, I asked you."

"Yes, sir. Hotline, Expand"

Nell uses Red Flame Magic Level 40 'Hotline'. At that moment, the air around me that was going to freeze in the bees quickly turned into gentle warmth like a spring breeze. If you can metaphor it, it's like in a futon when you wake up in the morning.

"Is that it? It's getting muddy?

"Wow, there it is!

This magic can warm the area around the subject and raise it to any temperature, no matter what the environment. In fact, Nell already uses this magic, which only works thinly around him and climbs mountains at the right temperature. Cunning.

"Ahhh! Nell, you were soaking yourself in warm water! Cunning!"

"I don't have the guts to tell you that to a girl who doesn't want to walk a step. This is pretty superior magic, so extensive maintenance is tiring. Or just keep the temperature back around Lilyevia?

"What, is that going to wind up to me...!? Master Lily, apologize!

"T, Toko tells me to throw away my pride!?

"Comfortable rest or your master's pride, which you think is more important!

"That's the former! I'm sorry, Nell, forgive me for pitying you!

Immediately take more peace than pride. I really can't go anywhere anymore, you maid...

"Arrival!

"Oh, it's clear over here."

Through the steep snowy mountains, we set foot in the land of Snowtail. Although there was snow here too, the weather was as good as a different world.

"You're surrounded by high mountains everywhere you look."

"This country is situated like a crater surrounded by mountains. The point is, it's a basin. There's no other way out of the sky than to cross a mountain tunnel like us or use a boat. You're as inconvenient as a fool, aren't you?

"haha......"

In particular, Snowtail is only the intermediate connecting point. This time the destination is Damaya, and here it is gradually halfway through the journey or something?

"Oh, my husband. I've been wondering for a while now, where's the ship? If you check around, you don't see the ocean at all, do you?

"Hmm? Oh, no, no. It's not that ship. It's not the ocean, it's an empty journey."

"" "Empty?

When I told you about it with my fingers up there, a snow-tailed freighter passed through the sky in good time.

- Gwong...!

Large bird running through the sky. Ringing is a mechanical voice that would be a testament to the abiotic. Can we even compare it to a large reciprocal machine in modern times? The ship, to which Snowtail belonged, flew straight towards the departure site.

"Wow, is that a plane?

"Yeah, not a plane?

"Oh, that's a plane...... that's the ship!? Why is that flying, this country!?

Oh, he responds well. I was secretly looking forward to seeing how these guys reacted, good stuff.

"Snowtail was offered technology by one of the Made in Zekes, uh, the Great Eight Demons."

"When it comes to Zex, is that Zex Yid in the fifth seat?

"Whoa, the boulder is Chinatsu. I study a lot."

"Huh! I'm proud of you, Chinatsu."

"You're good at it... well, I'm forming an alliance with that Zex country. That ship is one of the technologies offered, and some ships come and go from continent to continent frequently."

Since it is an alliance, not an invasion, it does not even touch the Absolute Inviolability of the Great Eight Demons. That's why Lily doesn't complain either. As a condition of exchange for technology provision, I wonder if Zex is a rare pattern in which mutual interests coincide with the desire to have a special resource mining in this territory.

"Well, we arrived quite a bit earlier than planned. We'll secure the inn first."
