31-01 Steer Arena's Birthday Party

Happy Birthday

On the night of August 2nd, in Penglai, the Jen family was gathered to celebrate the Steer Arena's birthday.

"Thanks, guys"

Almost all the members are celebrating.

"... I don't really congratulate you at 33."

Then there's the word from Berche.

"It's moonlight, but 'birthday' means celebrating the anniversary of his birth, not celebrating his age."

"Right. I think I do, too."

Jen agrees.

"I think so too, Leena."

Toa, her husband, also said, slapping her on the shoulder.

"Right. Thanks again, guys"

Then it's a relaxing banquet.

Hot cake with plenty of maple syrup and sushi made from rice.

Passa bread with passa (dried grapes), sandwich with various ingredients.

Persica, Citlan, Apulu. Flaps (Cokemomo) or lambels (Tulkokemo), plus blueberry juice.

It was a great dining room in Penglai, where all kinds of ingredients were also arranged.

"Berche, are you still okay?

Toa is asking Berche. I'm the father of one child, so I guess I still care.

"Yeah, I'm still fine. I can't travel, but I can't afford to come here."

"Fine, but not if you chill your stomach or force it."

"Yes, thank you"

"Congratulations on your victory, Marcia"

Elsa was congratulating Marcia.

"Oh, thank you"

"He won the Golem Boat Competition for the second year in a row. Congratulations."

"Thanks. Thanks to Jin for this too. I got out because Leeche was sick, but I wasn't practicing dull. If Arrow hadn't been here, we wouldn't have won."

"No, no, no, no. Mr. Rodrigo's boat design is a big deal, too."

"Oh, yeah? Lord Jin tells me it's a shame."

"No, it's great to have that Triple Torso."

"No, no, not at all, this is a different place!

"... Gin won't be able to block your open mouth."

Beana and Lewis, or the Counts of Kuzma, seem to remain overwhelmed.

"... Yeah, Fluid Deformation Power Fluid Foam Drive..."

"Oh. Looks like you're on the extension line for the deformed power Foam Drive that Stearena uses for Celes or something."

"I'm a little interested."

"But I can't recommend mercury because it's very toxic at the moment."

Jen is talking about "Fluid Deformed Power" Fluid Foam Drive "to the Steer Arena. Saki added there.

"Kufu, are you using mercury? Interested. But it's harmful..."

Saki used to ask for precautions when she had a sample of mercury divided in Mitsuho. They got me interested again.

"Should I wear rubber gloves?

Samples were consequently managed in Penglai at that time, and Saki's interest had not been allowed to be used because of other shifts.

"Sister Saki, mercury evaporates and becomes mercury vapor. It's dangerous if you inhale it. I may not be able to cure acute intoxication."

Elsa stabs the nail from the side.

"Oh, really? That's a little too scary..."

Curious researchers like Saki are just fine enough to keep them a little threatened.

"And you're interested in that 'kite airship'."

Reinhardt came with it.

"Well. That's an interesting idea."

Structures such as motor hang gliders are certainly interesting, just one step away.

That was probably pretty common 500 years ago, too.

"But hey, religion..."

Reinhardt sighed.

"Now when it comes to religion and church, it's an image of a tourist destination."

Three hundred years ago, in the Magic Wars, the authority of religion fell to the earth.

"But religion causes a lot of trouble."

Jen reminds me of his hometown, Modern Earth.

Religious warfare.

The most evocative word is that word.

A believing God, a God who should protect the grass of the people, forces death not only on heathen but also on believers.

How unreasonable, Jen thought.

"This too, if you know what I mean..."

It was still Vivian who answered such a soliloquy.

"It's true. I just heard that the magicians (Magicraftsmen) moved to the region because" engineering magic "was underestimated at the time."

"There were times like that..."

'The Lost Past' is still beyond the veil of mystery.

"And what bothered me most was where the 'fluid metal' came from,"

"You said the South Island."

"It is."

There are so many islands to the south that I have no idea which one it is.

"But aren't there so many candidates?

"Huh?"

Rodrigo has questioned Jen's remarks.

"What do you mean?

"No, it depends on how much magic technology was 500 years ago, but even if it was somewhat further than it is now, I don't think it could have gotten that far."

"I see..."

Looking at the world diagram, the archipelago is dotted from the southern edge of the kingdom of Areas, on the south sea of Potlock, towards the southwest.

"I think it might be one of them."

There is no certainty.

"In the first place, if you go south, 'Free Magnetin (ether)' decreases, right? So I don't think it's that far south."

Vivian joined the story.

"I don't know about that. It was before the Enchantress Rampage, Ether Stampede, so if it was 500 years ago, there would have been free Enchantress (Ether) there?

Reinhardt also says with interest. Jen also agreed with the opinion.

"I think there is. But if the level of technology at the time was that Fluid Deformation Powered Fluid Form Drive and Kite Aircraft, couldn't it have gotten that far? It doesn't look like a big ship."

"Jin, I know what you mean. But you don't have much free magic, do you? I'm just gonna go, isn't that why you can't?

What the Steer Arena says is shooting straight. Because the Magic Instrument/Magic Machine doesn't work without the Free Magic Magic (ether).

"Sure. But why are there so few free magic elements (ethers) in the south?

Saki was also tilting her neck.

"That's certainly strange. For example, space is full of free magic elements (ethers), and spacecraft can go to the southern hemisphere of Ars."

However, if the altitude is higher than that of the stratosphere, it will be annotated.

"I would also like to look into the area..."

"Kufu, Jin, are you thinking something?

"Oh. For example, what if we had a vehicle that could move without replenishment for a year?

"... depending on the speed of that ride, but assuming that's a ship and you can get about 20 kilometers an hour, you're going to be able to get to Antarctica enough to come home."

Saki's calculations are correct. The size of the alus...... circumference is about 7500 km. If you stay running for 24 hours at 20 km/h, it's a calculation that you can circle in less than 16 days.

Even if I only run for half a day, I can go around in about a month.

It would be enough to think about doing a lot of research first thing you go to, so...

"... but Jin, you're not really going, are you?

To Saki, who says bitterly, Jen replies with a laugh.

"No, I wanted to go."

An unknown island that can only be reconnoitred from high altitude.

Jen was interested.
