Episode 92: Strange Requests and Flying Toys

"... What's this?

While walking, it somehow caught my eye, and when I point to an object shaped like an oval or a cylindrical shape, Laura nodded and explained.

"That's a demonic prop, rather than a model. It's mainly called a airship flying through the Western region. Of course, it works just like the real thing. This is how it is..."

That's what Laura said, holding a demonic stone, pouring magic from it into the model of that airship, then holding something in his hand and remembering something.

Then smoke erupts from the airship's model and then floats out into the air.

Laura continues.

"Now what I'm actually flying isn't magic, it's powered by steam, so I can't say technically it's a model... a toy that mimics it, did I just say something like"

That's what I said.

I've heard about the airship.

I just never rode it.

Anyway, the airship, as Laura put it, is a substitute for flying in the Western region, and it must not fly to the Kingdom of Yarlan, which is only such a peripheral country.

Well, I remember hearing that you came during some kind of festival in the King's Capital, to that extent at best.

Besides, the people who can ride are limited to those who have considerable financial resources due to the high fares.

I was nothing more than a bronze adventurer, so I had no connection at all.

But when I see that model in front of me, and it's flying in the Big Big Big Big Big Big Big Big, it gets kind of fun.

It seems that the stone-like object Laura has is a pilot (controller) that can fly the plane,

"... would you like to pilot it?

And I was offered, and asked, so I nodded.

The method is simple, only to remember the direction and altitude of the airship while gripping the pilot (controller).

In fact, it was terribly fun to try.

With the exception of magicians and other sorcerers wearing special sorceries, the longing is great because the sky is not something that humans can fly.

It is true that the more you get on the airship, the more economical you can get, but you still don't have enough.

It was only natural for me to take advantage of this opportunity as a pleasure.

"Is it fun?

Laura asked me, so I nod.

"Oh... you want it..."

"So, and?

"No..."

Sure, I want what I want.

But to say I'm taking a toy home to a boulder...

The part of my boy in my heart says I'll definitely get this, but the grown-up I say, don't be such a fool and pick something more useful.

The latter is more correct.

I know it's right, but do you think it's fun to just live with the world's correctness? and the boy in me folds.

... No, come on... it sure is.

Yes, but here's the thought of a severance...

And I made up my mind, and Laura said even more.

"If it's that much fun, why not use other features? Focus on that model."

That's what they told me, and I did.

Then, the point of view that I should have looked up to before changes painfully and becomes the kind of point of view that I looked down on from the model.

Downstairs I saw a masked robe man looking up at this one, and a beautiful girl.

"... Huh!? What, is this..."

In panic, the point of view returned to its original position, with Laura's appearance in front of him.

she says.

"I can put consciousness on that model. I said model, but the truth is, it wasn't made by mimicking the airship that's flying the world right now, it was made by mimicking that model. It's from the labyrinth."

In other words, now the flying airship was invented, rather than made in imitation of a labyrinth product.

It was created in the same process as the magic props that are spreading throughout the world.

Yet unlike this model, which only works with magic, with steam, I guess it was because it was completely difficult to mimic.

Labyrinth listings are difficult to fully understand how they work, even when analyzed and disassembled.

Still, if you want to make something similar, it means you have ideas and inventions.

But can you put your consciousness on, huh?

Once again, I concentrate on the model.

Then it became a point of view that looked at the world from the tip of the model.

I thought it was just a toy, but that's not true, and it seems useful.

Could this also be used to see the situation quite far from the sky?

It would be great for reconnaissance.

If I tell Laura that,

"Right...... you can use it that way too. However, it is difficult to fly very long distances in relation to magic, so you may choose where to use it. I was just wondering if I could use a little peek ahead or look around from the sky."

Sure, I can see that Laura had so much magic from the Demon Stone earlier, she's already pretty diminished.

When I poured that much and ran out in about five minutes... it seemed difficult to keep flying all the time.

If you can't get far, no matter how much consciousness you can put on it, it may be difficult to use.

Anyway, if there's a lot of magic, Lila's magic stone was pretty big.

It's subtle, considering I might not have enough of my magic with all my might.

"... I thought it wasn't terrible."

"Will you stop that one?

That's what they asked me, so I thought about it a little and then I answered.

"... No, dust, let's keep it. That would be nice, because it could be..."

I may not be able to use it much right now, but in time, with more magic, I may be able to fly longer.

Besides, I enjoyed playing...

I wouldn't say that, but that wasn't even the case.

Anyway, to see something else, I walk in the basement with Laura and Isaac again.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

Then they showed me all sorts of magic props.

Aside from the model of the airship, there were a lot of magic items like barricading magic items, things that floated themselves in the air, things that could deactivate poison, weapons that could blade magic, armor that would automatically fight you if you poured magic, and cylinders that fired flames like blast flames.

One of the most disturbing is the model of the first airship I saw and the demonic props that can then change my voice.

Needless to say, the former was fun, but the latter is good because the difficulty of hearing my voice now improves considerably.

The problem is that the latter may no longer be necessary...

"Have you decided?

Even though I keep worrying about indecision, Laura doesn't have one disgusting face and she keeps waiting for me.

It makes me feel very grateful and sorry, but this is quite a big choice to be involved in the future.

I have to ask you to allow me to take the time.

Well, it doesn't look like I care.

"The thing is, I'm nagging... what's going on... hmm?

Moving around my jaw, looking around and saying that, something strange popped into my eyes.

I ask honestly.

"What's that?

Laura is

"Oh, that's... well, as you can see, demonic material, etc. It's not a magic trick, but there's something I care about, and I'm just collecting a little bit of it."

Answer that.

To see the quantity, just a little, etc., it's not the number, but maybe it really felt that way from the Latour family.

The scales of the dragons, the horns of the unicorns, the bones of the giants, and the amount of money that would make your eyes fly if you sold them off, are narrowly placed.

Wow...... while you let me see a little bit, I saw something in my eyes that bothered me a lot.

Look at my gaze, says Laura.

"... is that what bothers you?

"Oh. Well."

When I nodded, Laura took it.

An elongated, clear crystal container.

There is red and black liquid inside.

says Laura.

"This is the blood of the vampire Vampire, right? It is used as a catalyst in the manufacture of weapons and magic props and in the formulation of magic drugs…"
