Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician
238 Sailing trip to Silvatria
"Well, then, Mr. Theo, be very careful."
"Oh. See you next time, at Termwilds"
"It feels a little weird to say I'll drop you off here and see you at Termwilds when I get home,"
"Right."
Alfred and I laugh bitterly at each other for dropping us off at the harbor.
A day at dawn. Summer clouds in the blue sky. Clear sea plains. Bring them for sailing. Nice sunny day.
Alfred stays in the Marquis de Foblester for a few days. Then we plan to return to Termwilds with Ophilia and Viola in a dragon cage with the Marquis Knights escort. So the next time we meet will be when we return with a transfer from Mount Tefra.
"Gentlemen, then. Good luck."
"Dear Ophelia, I will see you again at Termwilds"
"Yes, Master Ashley."
Ashley takes Ophelia and each other's hands and speaks.
"Lady Romina is well. Come visit me again at Termwilds."
"Yes, be sure"
Ofelia and Romina also seem to be getting on better proportions on their journey so far. Looks like Ofelia got along with Talcott and Cindy, and she looks like she's taking good care of herself.
Next to it, Princess Stephania and the Marquis of Foblester also offer their farewell greetings.
"Marquis Foblester. Thank you for your warm hospitality."
"I wish you a safe journey back to Termwilds without delay in your service."
"Thank you"
The Marquis of Foblester turns to the Marquis of Gilbolt and gives him a compliment.
"Then Marquis Foblester. I look forward to seeing you again soon."
"Welcome, Marquis Gilbolt"
"So - Shall We Go"
Princess Stephania says quietly.
Climb the Tallap and all aboard the ship. The sailors rushed around the deck, the iridium was raised and the mast was sailed.
The sail is in the wind and the ship moves out. Wave to the Alfreds for dropping me off from the top of the deck. He also waved back his hand over there, slowly becoming smaller in its appearance.
If you cross the sea, your mother's country of birth. And - this is the country that drove my mother.
- Silvatoria.
"Is it Lisa's... hometown"
Grace answers that when she squeaks her eyes at the smaller and smaller harbor. Ashley's got a worrying face, too. Neither one of us thinks she had a fall on her mother. So I guess that's... worrying about me. I wonder if there was anything on your expression.
"Right. I'm probably pretty sure about that."
I smile and I give it back.
"... it's okay. It has nothing to do with our lives back then."
Turn your hand around Grace's hips and hold Ashley's shoulder.
"- Yes."
The two nod quietly and lean in gently.
Patricia, the magician of Silvatria, and her mother - Lisa. I'm pretty sure they're the same person.
From what I have heard of the Marquis Gilbolt, it is not difficult to imagine that her mother was an associate of the Sage's Academic Union, belonging to the dean.
At the instigation of the King Prince's thoughts and factional strife, some kind of magic, technology, or goods. And it would be that he escaped the country to protect himself. But if that's the case, there's nothing wrong with my mother. That I was flirted with at the convenience above, that's all.
Mallane and I gazed at each other as we held each other for a while.
"Mallane"
Calling Mallane's name, he comes here just a little early. I hugged her from the other side as she held her cheeks against my chest. Mallane must have heard the conversation with Grace and the others.
Keep looking at Claudia and Rosemary as well, Claudia slightly blushes her cheeks and Rosemary covers her face with a feather fan.
"If that's the problem on deck, shall we go to the cabin?
"Fine, 'cause I was listening."
"... right. You don't have to."
Holding Claudia, Rosemary turns from herself to my back side and turns her hand from shoulder to shoulder. Embrace during a while.
Or... Zadias might say that the elders betrayed the country by sending their mother. But this is not what I learned, such as accusations that come from the convenience of Prince Wang. Mother's life on the run. That's all for me, and that's enough talk.
Yeah. I don't need to be a nervas anywhere. Let's change our minds.
"Uh...... Shall I ask the captain if I can fish? Sheila. You were loading a couple of fishing rods, weren't you?
"Mm-hmm. I'm bringing extra"
Sheila nods. I knew it would be a sailing trip, so Claire of Alkeny prepared a long line of fishing for me if I had time to crush it on the boat.
Well, I guess not if the captain says no... because I felt like I saw him and he seemed like a luxurious person. Perhaps I can get your permission.
Now - I'm going to be busy gripping the wheel right after sailing, so why don't you ask the sailors to give me a message?
"Excuse me, can I fish later?
and asks the sailor wrapped around the bandana. The sailor shows his teeth with a tanned face and laughs happily.
"Are you fishing? It's easy to understand. I'll ask the captain."
"Time is enough."
"Really? I'll let the cabin know later."
"Until then, I'll play something."
"Mm-hmm. I like the sound of Illumhilt."
Tefra with Serafina on her shoulder reacts to Illumhilt's words.
"Well, we have to work hard to meet expectations."
And, Illumhilt rolls his sleeves and laughs with his arms bent to create a force tumor.
That's why we all head to the cabin. The interior of the cabin is quite luxurious and highly habitable.
Marquis Foblester said he had enough ships and personnel to match because he was sending Princess Stephania to Sylvatria... I see.
As he calmed down in the cabin, Illumhilt quickly started playing the lute. He said it was a song he learned from Justia in Seylan.
The sound of a knock echoes in the cabin.
"Go ahead."
When Princess Stephania replied, she got the pipe, a man with a mustache walks into the cabin. There is no such thing as a coat in the captain's hat. It is Captain Montague, who gave me a heartbeat that the Marquis of Foblester was a trustworthy figure.
Anything originally belonged to the Knights, and now they mainly carry supplies between Termwilds and Marquis territory, or the Marquis himself often uses them when heading to Termwilds.
"It's not easy to rush. You're late for a reply...... so rude. My usual habits have appeared. The sailors seem to be coming."
And, when Captain Montague laughs bitterly at his tone, he shakes his blanket and then fixes the shattered tone.
"No. I'm sorry I took care of you"
You said the captain was talking about fishing permits, and you didn't think he'd come directly over here.
"No, no. You're an important guest. I was planning on coming to say hello. His Royal Highness Stephania and the ambassador of the other world."
"Was it"
"So welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to my Emeraldia"
"Best wishes, Captain Montague"
To the words of Princess Stephania, Montague returned the salute. I see. I can snort that I was originally a knight. You say the Knights ceremony salute is also on the board. I guess he's usually a guy named Man of the Sea.
"We talked about wanting to fish, but I was hoping you could put on a life line or something for once. The deck can shake a little, so it can be dangerous if you're not used to it."
"Then you can fly in the sky with magic and magic props, what do you think?
"Oh. You did. No, the sailors are happy to have the magician aboard."
"Really?
"Yeah, but you can make wind, and you can make drinking water."
I see. Even if something unforeseen happens on the voyage, we can deal with it when the magician is aboard.
"Then let me help you refill and purify the water until you get over there."
"Oh, thank God for that! There's no such thing as a voyage where water can be used for lubrication!
The captain laughs, showing his teeth slightly to. Sounds like a more thankless story than I imagined. Indeed, I have often heard that true water is precious on sea voyages.
By replenishing the water here, some parts of the water can be used to lubricate us at will. Although it is a sailing journey, the environment of laundry, bathing, etc. is probably a luxury.
The captain is also a discerning figure in Frank, and for this minute the sailing journey to the Marquis of Gilbolt is going to be a pleasant one inside.
