Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

The ship was still not equipped with mattomo electricity, and it was bright enough to finally see its feet thanks to the LEDs installed by the way.

Besides, there were no windows at all, so of course there was no light coming in from the outside, which was made without even having a view outside.

This is not the result of Waltz's failure to design, but of the priority given to the strength of the hull.

As a light source on board, Waltz intended to lay panel monitors on floors and walls instead of windows, but there would be no difference in the Merclio case, so it would remain dim on board for a while.

Waltz and Tempo sitting down in an impromptu seat reserved for such an onboard bridge.

When you are ready and ready to test,

"I'm transferring ~?

Lucia's voice was heard from a speaker on an air battleship bridge.

Then,

Bun...

The view displayed on the console changes to gallery.

(After all, I feel the same as Leah's metastatic magic...)

It was the first time for Waltz to undergo Lucia's metastatic magic.

So I was going to observe carefully... but in the end, I couldn't find a difference from normal metastatic magic.

... so the air battleship Waltz boarded transferred to the flatlands on the north side of the Royal Castle.

Because of the Cortex circular, or because you mobilized the knights to pay for it?

In any case, thanks to her rooting, there were no figures around.

"So tempo? Let's start the experiment, shall we?

Waltz, sitting in the captain's seat (impromptu), unleashed words against the tempo sitting in the steering seat.

Then,

"Jesus Mam"

With that said, tempo to start one of the three nuclear fusion furnaces that are the main aircraft.

By the way, only two people are on board the air battleship: Waltz and Tempo.

Even if the tempo was damaged by the impact of the crash or something, with Catalina, it would be back to normal, but not the rest of us.

So until safety is confirmed, these two people are going to do the experiment.

"Confirmation of auxiliary power supply. Start of helium production for DT extraction and shield coil cooling. Molecular pump, sky hook system, laser irradiation system, all green. Sodium circuit, heating with LV1 and start of circulation..."

Cuyyn...

The auxiliary engine begins to sound high as the tempo successively advances the activation sequence of the laser nuclear fusion reactor.

"Pellet generation complete. Shield coil superconductor drive confirmation. Secondary heat exchange path, start circulation at lowest output. Pellet launcher ready. Now, sister, start the third nuclear fusion reactor."

"Yep. Please."

And a nuclear fusion reactor that begins to react without sound.

Internally, however, there will be enormous energy releases.

"Sodium and secondary heat exchange paths, in temperature rise. Molecular pump, maximum output. Laser irradiation system, 20% load. 18% auxiliary power residue... looks critical"

Auxiliary power... i.e. battery.

Once a series of systems have been activated and generated, electricity can cover itself, but its start-up will require large quantities of electricity structurally.

Unlike a stationary nuclear fusion reactor installed in the basement of South Fortress, this first start-up was difficult for an air battleship that could not receive external electricity.

For once, in calculation, there should have been enough power, but still there wasn't enough room.

So much so that batteries for auxiliary power are installed all the way inside the bridge.

It should be noted that, despite the fact that there was also an option to keep only the furnace running while receiving electricity from the outside inside the underground large workshop, the reason for the experiments carried out outside was that, when accidents such as unexpected explosions occurred in confined spaces, even small explosions could have blown up every king's capital, thus making it fully operational for safety.

"... because you have no choice, why don't you stop circulating the secondary heat exchange path and leave it until the coolant boils? And less power for the pump drive."

"Right. Secondary heat exchange path, will stop circulation"

Waltz and the others will attempt to reduce the extra power until the nuclear fusion reactor starts...

... and 10 minutes later.

"Why, ha-ha-ha... and tempo? Not yet ~?"

Waltz was coming to the engine room and turning the turbine for electricity generation with his manoeuvre armor arm...

After all, there was not enough power.

Apparently, the battery's performance was lower than assumed.

"In about 30 seconds."

Tempo voices heard from speakers in the engine room.

"Something... that 30 seconds... I don't like... I feel long..."

It was a very primitive way, but if you consider Waltz's own output, there was no making either, such as turning the turbine (?).

"Ah... but it's getting lighter and lighter..."

The turbine Waltz kept spinning gradually became lighter and eventually began to spin itself.

Kiiiiiiiii...

"3rd nuclear fusion furnace, activated. Enough, sister. '

"... you have two more..."

So Waltz looks full of creativity (?) and returned to the bridge.

Next, the first and second nuclear fusion reactors.

"Oh, I'm already done booting up"

To tempo words, a waltz that looks like it can't be done somewhere.

"Why is it so easy to start..."

"We bypassed the sodium path from the third nuclear fusion reactor, so all the nuclear fusion reactors warmed up in an instant"

"... oh, yeah"

I thought you were embedded in tempo, as usual, Waltz.

But that didn't seem like it.

"Well fine. What do you say, sodium leak or something?

"Yes, the heat exchange system is not abnormal, both pressure and temperature"

"Yes. Well, now we finally have a flotation test."

"Yep. It's over, too."

"... what?

I didn't realize it because there were no windows. Waltz.

Pi...

Switching the main engine status screen shown on the bridge's temporary main monitor to Appearance mode...

"... you're flying."

The battleship did not shake at all and was stationary about 20 m above the ground.

"Nah... too bland..."

"... for some reason the graviton (floating) control system didn't work, sodium leaked and exploded and inflamed, the turbine was badly made and blew up, what could have been better?

"... yeah. I'm glad nothing happened."

and it was when the two of them were in conversation as usual.

'Wow... wow!

"I really didn't know you could fly that big. That's waltz."

"That's a pretty big airship when you look at it like this..."

The voices of such companions were heard by speakers.

In fact, he finally built the radio he had been trying to build for a long time.

"So, tempo? I'm gonna reveal the ship to everyone, okay? Turbine for propulsion, Yo Solo (forward) at 0.1% thrust. Ah, maintain altitude. Keep going around the outer perimeter of Wangdu."

"Thrust 0.1%, Yo Solo"

Tempo to recite.

Then,

Gowwwwww...

The battleship began to move forward with an explosion called

"... 0.1% is fine, May."

"I didn't take measures to silence the exhaust noise."

"Just a propulsion turbine, maybe rebuild..."

"Isn't that something? The atmosphere is out and... Worst of all, if you deflect the vector of the graviton control system forward, you can proceed silently, right?

"... you can use scrumjet propulsion if you get to the speed of sound."

The two of us are saying things we don't understand, but... I mean, there's no problem.

A battleship that grabs the joystick and slowly moves around the outer perimeter of Wangdu (about 100 km/h).

The kings and the travellers who saw it,

'Could it be the airship that Master Teresa built (in national policy)?

"Unbearable, powerful..."

"I'd love to ride it once too ~"

Like I said, I wanted to show you how surprising I was.

Maybe Cortex didn't even have to issue a circular to the King's people.

but elsewhere the reaction of such Kings and Citizens...

"This is definitely everyone, you're falling..."

Recalling a film depicting citizens fleeing the invasion of extraterrestrial life forms, Waltz imagined the confused Wang Dumin.
