I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)

The day after sailing.

"Warehouse again"

"Well, a merchant ship."

"Smells good"

"Oh, you look like groceries around here"

We were embarking on an expedition on board. In the meantime, I decided to head downstairs from the deck, but at first I had little place to see it.

Whatever it was, it was a sailor's quarters, and all the rooms were inaccessible. Well, I guess the room is concentrated at the top of the hull so that we can react safely.

And when it came to the compartment below it was mostly a warehouse. In part, the room where the valuables were stored was locked, so I couldn't get in, but otherwise I was able to get in normally.

It's a dusty normal warehouse with boxes and bags stacked up, but Fran seems to enjoy it a lot.

I certainly never get tired of watching unusual ingredients and strangely designed crafts that I don't know where I'm making them.

"Next go"

"Ooh."

As I walked through the warehouse compartment and into a room close to the side of the ship, a huge chunk of metal came into my eyes. It is a dark, cylindrical, intimidating object.

"This, what?

"You're a demon cannon. Shoot these iron balls out with magic."

"Going out of your way to fly balls of iron?

'Mm-hmm. I guess it's because you can use less magic to produce power than using magic for direct attacks. When I say it's going to run with magic, it's not going to work indefinitely.'

Moreover, this demon cannon is superior because it is also possible to attack with magic. Artillery shells for hostile ships, etc. I guess I'll use it separately from magic bullets for warcraft in the sea, etc.

Even so, you're big. In addition to the normal cannon body, it is fitted with a demonic guidance engine, so it will really be bigger than the Earth's cannon.

Further down from that room, it becomes the bottom compartment. Most of them are ballast tanks that store water, but the next largest room was equipped with this huge magic device. There is a heavy, low noise that echoes in my belly: goung goung.

"Big time."

"This must be the guy with the propulsion system."

"Mm. It's so loud"

'Heh, you're spitting water out of there. This one looks like a pump.'

If I wondered how it worked, they were aquajet methods. I guess he's sucking in water with a huge pump and gaining propulsion with the momentum of spraying it backwards.

Moreover, there are many places on the hull where water can be spit out, and they can be made to change direction. The ships of this world are likely to be small circles.

Has this turned the general place around? We decided to go back to deck once. Fran seems to want to move her body, so I thought I'd give it a light, bare gesture.

Out on deck, the sailors were moving in a hurry. Apparently, he's opening the mast. Jerome gives a lot of instructions.

"I left the bay! Prepare to sail!

"Ugly."

"We're going full speed to Kraken's nest! Listen, you bastards!

Now that we're out of the bay, it looks like we're going to run at maximum ship speed from here. You just said something that bothered you.

"What's a Kraken's nest?

"Oh, Lord Black Thunder. Kraken's nest, as its name suggests, is a dangerous area where Kraken lives!

"Are you going through there?

"Don't go through if you say so."

Isn't it dangerous to say there's a line to avoid the great warcraft? But they're a little different than we thought.

"Go ahead and plunder the outermost part of Kraken's territory."

Kraken reigns at the apex of the ecosystem in this watershed. Naturally no other warcraft is close to the waters where its Kraken lives with Ujauja. Especially susceptible to predation, the medium-sized Warcraft will never come by.

"Conversely, if you're careful with Kraken, you're less likely to be attacked by other warcraft."

"But what about Kraken?

Yes. If that Kraken attacked me, there shouldn't be a single pile. But Jerome said that the boundaries of this ship are made especially assuming Kraken, and the chances of being discovered are quite low?

So what about the other warcraft? Aside from Kraken, there must be some horrible big warcraft. When Fran asks, it seems that there are few large warcraft living in this waters other than Kraken who said so.

"Why?"

"There's a shallow ocean going on between the Gilbard continent, which I just left, and the Chrome continent, where the Beast Nation is. Well, even if it's shallow, it's a few hundred meters."

Still, its depth seems very shallow compared to other outer oceans.

"For example, large warcraft above threat B, such as king whales, water dragons, and dagons on Leviathan, usually live in deep waters"

So I say it has never even been witnessed in the waters between Jilbird and Chrome, where the sea is shallow.

"Instead, in the Devil's Sea between Browdin continent to the north, there's a nasty warcraft at last. The Leviathan of Threat S is the only sea sighted in the world."

Leviathan is, according to legend, one of the strongest warcraft, whose head to tail exceeds 1000 meters and whose tsunami is sometimes even said to be Leviathan's turnaround.

There are too few examples of sightings and we know nothing of the details. But more than 3,000 years ago, a coastal country once pissed off Leviathan and was destroyed overnight. It was considered true from what is stated in the literature written by the Clerical Skills of the Depositary.

It is Leviathan's description of staple foods that particularly surprised people with the content of that literature, he says. What a star food it was written was Midgals Olm, a Threat A Warcraft, since Leviathan is rarely sighted except when hunting because if he captures one and brings it back to his nest, he can continue eating it for over 100 years. What a story the scale is too big.

The Magic Sea is home to many other large warcraft, so few ships use it as a route. Ships from the Gilbard continent to the Browdin continent to the north are also mostly headed for the Chrome continent to the west, bypassing the Devil's Sea and heading north. I guess that's how safe the ocean is.

Instead, Kraken, who has no other competing warcraft, will gather in the waters. That's so much so that they say nests, etc.

"Well, don't worry. That Kraken measure is perfect."

"Mmm."

"Instead, ask for other miscellaneous fish warcraft and pirates?

"Okay. Let it be."

"Ooh."
