"Because the warehouse is a short distance from this building. I'll be out once. Follow me."

That's what Michaela told me. We were outside the back of an archaeological guild.

Still in the middle of a purple sandstorm. Immediately sand clumps around the body.

... a little hard to move.

He said it would last at least half a day, and I guess it's in this state until night.

"Be careful, it's a purple storm, with poor vision and scaffolding. We also have sand."

"Oh, sure."

It was at my feet that I went outside and first felt uncomfortable.

Every step feels like a shoe tip is buried.

This will deprive you of your strength if you don't think well about the way you walk.

"You don't have a good vision either."

"I don't see it at all. I knew it was hard to fly in here."

Saki and Baselia are also narrowing their eyes.

Even if the attenuation of magic by sandstorms doesn't do much good, the physical ones seem different.

"Right. We, too, really struggle when we walk in this. Because it doesn't look satisfactory even a few meters away. … it's penetrating, but we have these things for you to use."

Michaela pointed to a roped wedge that stood on the ground.

That lines up every few meters, and the rope floats without slack.

"Proceeding along this rope there is a domed warehouse. Let's use this as a guide to go."

I look ahead to where Michaela pointed.

Sure, the rope guidelines are connected towards the back. And

"A domed warehouse... is that the one over there? If we do go in the sandstorm, we might have a guide."

I said as I looked at the building at the end of my gaze.

"Yes... what... Huh? 」

Then, after the neighbor Michaela nodded, she glanced badly at my face.

"Oh, um... Mr. Axel, are you seeing this? From here, the warehouse...? 」

"Hmm? Well, I'm interrupted by a sandstorm, but I see it. There's only one domed building in front of you."

In my view, the building shows the shape of a semi-cylinder.

Although it is a little blurry because of the sand.

I know it's a few minutes on foot or something. If there wasn't even a sandstorm, there wouldn't be a need for a rope. Position relationship.

"It's not that far away, and I can see something."

Answering Michaela's question, she opened her eyes wide.

"Yes, no! But in this colored storm of sand, right? Even we, because we can't secure our sight, are putting up ropes for auxiliary use like this... you can secure our sight that way..."

"Well, I used to push colorful magic bullets across the street. Maybe it's a big thing you're used to seeing around in a bad vision."

At the time of the Great War, it was the blast, the smoke, the magic bullets, and so on, that pushed him on board Baselia.

Therefore, even if vision is obstructed by an obstacle, the technique of checking the surroundings is acquired somehow.

Even this time, it doesn't look as clear as when it comes into clear air, but it's enough to travel.

"Your husband has really good eyes. I don't like that, so I've always had support."

"I see... that's amazing. What are the eyes of more than a dragon king...... Even if the brave man is quit, I didn't know the experience was still being used on active duty."

"Well, it's a limited thing when you use it. Whatever it is, it's clear where it is. Shall we move it around?"

After a few minutes of walking in the sand and wind, we reached the warehouse.

It's a building with a metal door that looks heavy.

And Michaela's hand opened the door.

It was in there.

"... a great number of kettles... no water bottles, huh? This."

It's a big bottle with a faucet.

That's how many were lined up.

"Yes, this is the archaeological guild's reservoir of the most important items for desert exploration. Come on, pay off the sand and go inside."

As soon as we entered the vault, Michaela shut the door behind her.

"I have the stuff I want to give you over here. Gentlemen, it's still a little dim, so watch your step."

The reservoir is provided with windows, but less lights due to sandstorms.

So Michaela turns to the back while turning on the lights in the vault.

And then we go after him.

"Ugh, I just walked outside for a little while, but my lips tingle something..."

"You also have little moisture in the air, this is... My skin looks rough too."

"My hair's starting to blur..."

On the side, my buddies were saying that, paying for the sand on their hair and clothes.

"Heh heh, it feels like boulders are brave folks to move on through that and all that feeling... because if I had been outside with the same gear as you, I would have been overpowered and definitely out of breath"

"I see. That's how powerful the demigling is."

"Yes, so we use these things."

Saying, Michaela twists the handle of the faucet attached to the water bottle.

And he poured the water out of the faucet into a glass and gave it to us.

"Sa, have this' Spiritual Water '. Drink or sprinkle a little on your body. You'll be fine."

"Wow, it's water. Thanks."

When he received the cup, Baselia took a sip first. Then,

"Wow, wow. Awesome. It's delicious, and my skin's dry."

Baselia's skin visibly restored hydration.

And beside Baselia, Saki was also watering his palms, and, heh, he was nodding,

"Yep. When I put it on my skin, it absorbed right away... and this also contains a magical healing effect. So this isn't just water."

Saki says, looking at the glass of water intriguingly and comparing his own hands.

"Boulders are the brave men of sorcery. You know how it works."

"From what I've observed, yes."

"Still, it's amazing to see through it at first sight. About the magical spiritual water produced from this magical water bottle"

"As for spiritual water, I was wondering if it had anything to do with it... but it feels like it's working pretty well."

I also took a sip of water and rolled it with my tongue, but whatever the taste, I felt it was absorbed faster than normal water.

Is that the correct expression for dyeing?

I felt that, going all over my body at once.

Based on that feeling, she asked Michaela, and she nodded small.

"Yes, the desert winds that fudge this land have had the properties of taking moisture for a long time. It has been handed down as a measure of the wisdom of things living in this land, and the knowledge of ancient magic created by the Serpent God. It's just a sandstorm damage -- if it's dry enough, it's a substitute that's almost prevented by about a glass of water produced from here."

"That's amazing."

"That's why it's effective in combating desert drying in the land, and it's essentially a must have. The expedition is also moving through the sandstorms carrying and drinking this water. So please take as much as you can for replenishment as you are exploring"

"Is it good to just have...? Don't you think it's valuable or something? I'm going to put it in this bag... but that's where the amount comes in."

Michaela smiled and shook her neck sideways as I held the transport bag.

"Because water springs automatically from each and every one of these water bottles. That kind of magic equipment, so there's nothing wrong with it."

"Oh, that's convenient."

"That's why. Mr. Axel would like you to put it in the transport bag. If you don't have a bottle of vitreous, I'll put it in there and give it to you."

"Oh, thank you. Sweet for your words, let me do that."
