Ten years have passed since plans to migrate floating islands began.

The phantom beasts moved in little by little, and the inhabitants of the floating island also built new dwellings to move the foundation of their lives to [the wilderness of nothingness].

However, conservative phantom beasts and residents try to stay, so I took the time to talk to them one at a time and relieve my anxiety.

One resident is worried about the Ancient Dragon's grandfather.

It's a shame for a resident to leave our home, where he's used to living.

One resident cannot leave a tree planted instead of a tomb -

One resident wants to die rather than be a nuisance to young people because they are old or sick.

Listen to each person with guts, explore and solve anxiety.

At times he explored compromises and finally most of the residents moved in.

And today...

"Hey, it's eye-catching. I can't believe the festival is open this year."

Every year, during the fall harvest festival period, there were also fine festivals on floating islands, but as a result of moving to the [wilderness of nothingness], the residents' baby rush occurred due to the size of the land and the margins of the agricultural land, and the quality of the festival was also improved by the improvement of their lives.

Now, the festival was held at the settlement site of the floating island, where there were few users, and the grandfather of the ancient dragon also had his face on the occasion.

"It's eye-catching. Now I can rest assured. '

"Grandpa, you still have to watch over them."

"Well, then, the Witch Hall seems to be taking care of that, so look forward to it."

Grandpa is also lifting the barrel with one hand and drinking it all at once.

They say the flavor is still cluttered with alcohol created by the residents for three years now, but it still looks delicious and everyone drinks it happily.

"I'm glad the festival is safe this year."

"It is! Besides, this year's food is better than last year's!

I watch the festival from a short distance and tongue-in-cheek at the dishes Teto carried me.

It makes me feel like I've had another year.

Yuicia has also grown a little more than 10 years ago to look like she's about twenty years old, and she's still out walking around eating all kinds of food to see if the kids like her.

In such a soothing festive atmosphere, a certain figure rushed in.

"Witch Hall! Oh, my God! Help Shael, help Shael!

"Huh!? What's wrong with you!

As the soothing festive atmosphere suddenly makes me nervous, I take the wand out of my magic bag.

"He said he was going fishing alone, catching fish that put up the main part of the festival, and he's being attacked by a bunch of demon fish!

"Okay, Teto is about everyone, please!

"Yes it is!

I jump across the cane.

At previous festivals the Angels behaved the fish caught in the fishery, but it seemed that the Conservative Shael was forced to descend into the sea in an attempt to remind them of the good old life by behaving the fine fish.

And I found Shael attacked by countless herds of demon fish flying from the sea level if I turned to the bottom of the floating island.

The lifeline for returning to the island has also been devoured a thousand times, swinging spears and fighting a herd of demonic fish, but gradually appears to be hurting and flying at a lower altitude.

"Damn it! Blow it up - Storm!

Play magical flying demon fish that creates wind blades around you.

But his hands and legs were damaged and his blood flowed from the attack of the demon fish, who put his face out of the sea and released compressed water.

"-Shael! I'm gonna help you now!

"Get out of my way! These guys, they're my prey!

Hurt but barking shael with shitty eyes.

But for a moment we are delayed in realizing the existence closer to the sea because we were distracted by the sky we are in.

"Become!? Kraken!"

They must have come after the smell of blood shed by Shael and the herd of demon fish gathering.

He was stretching countless tentacles from the sea to try to drag Shael into the sea.

"-" Thunderbolt "!

Before such Kraken's toucharm wraps around the shael, lightning strikes against its torso and causes it to electrocute to death.

Kraken's body floats to sea level, and in the aftermath of the lightning strike, the herd of demon fish floats to sea in the same way.

"Are you okay? Let's go back and treat the injury. We're all worried."

As I descend to the same altitude as Shael, Shael lowers his spear without force and turns that way.

"Why did you help me?

"Yes?"

"I asked you why you helped me, you witch! If I die, you'll save me the trouble of convincing me!

I know what Shael's trying to say.

Shael, the only remaining conservative on the floating island, was fleeing without the persuasion of me or Grandpa Gu Long.

If such a shael dies, the plan to migrate to Floating Island will be complete.

"I'm not convinced. Leaving the Grandpa of the Ancient Dragon to move somewhere, etc! Grandpa's soul is connected to a floating stone to float a floating island! Only Grandpa can't move!

"Yeah, I know."

In the first year, after all the research to work out a migration plan, I found out.

We got there in the process of finding out where the magic of floating islands of all that mass was being bribed from.

"He said he knew! On a floating island where we are gone, the divine kingdom is erased! In that case, the magic will spread and I and the phantom beasts will not be able to lean in! Grandpa was going to keep drifting in the sky until he got off the floating island somewhere!

Not as many phantom beasts and phantom beasts depend on magic, but the races, defined as demonic tribes that require a lot of magic, are unsuitable for prolonged activities in low-magic environments.

Demons need a lot of magic to maintain it, especially on the other hand with high physical and special abilities, and the amount of magic produced by the person is low.

To do so, we need magical ingestion from the outside world, such as air and food.

"I also heard from him that by dying at its end, he intends to disappear with the bound floating stone and egg back."

The immortality of the ancient dragon is that it is reborn into a new egg and only knowledge is inherited.

Therefore, the newly born ancient dragon is to be born with a different self.

If I were to say it, I would have just said a second-generation green and blue ancient dragon.

"Then why! Why didn't you leave the conservative residents intact! If the development of the species was the wish of Grandpa, it would have been better by the time half migrated!

Don't let Grandpa be alone, hold him out of Shael's body with a squeezing voice.

Apparently it caused glare from bleeding and excitement.

Besides, when the Devil's Fish herd attacked him, he was caught by a sharp fin and seemed to suffer from weak poison.

"In the meantime, let's go home because the grandfathers are worried. - Teleport!

Touch Kraken drifting on the sea surface and transfer to exit over the floating island.

And slowly lower the Kraken floated with the magic of mindfulness power.

"I think Shael caught it all by himself. Thank you for today's hero. Please dismantle it."

"No, I, I..."

"" "Whoa! Wow!" "

As the cheers of the inhabitants of the floating island rise, it is Shael who decides to crusade Kraken.

"Well, I'll be free to treat Shael first. Teto, help me dismantle Kraken and put it up."

"Copy that!

Shael, who floats in the air with my magic, tries to resist about Kraken's crusade and being carried, but is powerless as he thinks with the wounds and poison he receives.

In so doing, he moves to the Mansion at the [Metastatic Gate] and puts him to bed for treatment.

"-" Heels, "" Antidote, "now the wounds and poison are good, but don't push it."

"... a soft bunk. It's exactly what witches make and tools for decadence."

I smile bitterly at Shael, who exaggerates in adding and subtracting the softness of his beds.

"Ask them to carry the festive dishes later, so let's get some rest now"

Me and Shael will be alone in the mansion room.

Shael opens his mouth as silence continues without finding words from each other for a while.

"Come on, get hurt and be transferred to your base for treatment. If the festival is over and you close the gates with the missing floating island, your resettlement plan will be complete!

I wonder if that's what makes me call a divine family, etc., even though I'm slightly frightened that she's a child of utter conjecture.

And after just a little calm, Shael mouths the same question as earlier without power.

"I doubt it earlier. Why didn't you leave the conservative residents intact?"

"Right. I had something I wanted, too."

"Come on, you still want all the floating island dwellers and phantom beasts! Or the remains of the Great Dragon! If you choose death with the extinction of the floating stone, the flesh will remain! You greedy witch!

If there were Teto or Beretta on this occasion, it would be a word that would be punished without question, but I would think she was a highly presumptuous child.

"What I want is the magic of the ancient dragon master."

"Magic......"

"It's fascinating how much magic the phantom beasts need to maintain their floating islands and grow."

The result of the calculation - the magic power of the Ancient Dragon's Grandfather would be about 3 million magic powers.

It is equal, so to speak, to the great tree of the living world tree.

Even if we don't restore magic to the world to its limits, as we have done before, it will only help the world if it exists.

It is not a story that can be overlooked, such as vanishing with a floating stone.

"Wait, wait! What do you think, witch?

"... the transfer of the floating island. Here."

That said, take out the management magic guide for [The Wilderness of Nothingness] and display a map of the entire area.

Exclude the untouched north side and enlarge the map in the southeast direction to form a settlement between the Angels and the Dragon Demons.

And there is a huge plot of land to the north of it.

"When I got the floating island down to the ground as it was, I'd tilt it, so I kept a big hole in line with the bottom of the island. After we descend the floating island on this, we will slowly strip the connection between Grandpa's soul and the floating stone."

Although not possible by Grandpa himself, separation by third parties is theoretically possible, backed by Beretta's calculations and Grandpa's experience.

"In order to transfer, once the island's inhabitants and phantom beasts have been evacuated, it's dangerous."

It was more difficult to calculate the amount of magic needed to transfer a floating island than replenishing it with [Demon Crystal Stone] and positioning it in various parts of the island...

"I don't know how many years it's gonna take, but I'm gonna set Grandpa free."

"Witch... you were crushing our feelings by then, and I..."

Remember your own deeds and hold the dripping shael in your head.

"I'm sorry. I wish I could have told you right away if it was true, but I couldn't have been more pleased if I hadn't said something uncertain."

"... ok. If that floating island transfer succeeded, I'll emigrate, too. So, what time is that floating island transfer?

"You can always go. But at the end of the festival, it's perfect."

If I played with that, Shael, who had ever had a harsh look on his face, would smile like a prank with me.
