Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

Episode 296: Port Town - Past and Present -

Three days in a carriage from the nearest accomodation town through Karma Forest. Kate and Mel gradually arrived at their destination, Portland Emelia. As such, while awaiting the formalities involved in the crossing of the carriage's junction, they will also have a formal entry and exit procedure into the city.

It should be noted that the procedure involved in the crossing of the carriage's junction is necessary because, as it is, the junction cannot be prevented from entering whether it is a carriage or a dragon car. Naturally, the connection to the city also prevents wildlife. Because the characteristics of the junction make it impossible to sort with it, we need a magic prop dedicated to the passage of the junction.

It is necessary to attach it to the horse for this reason, but it is forbidden to take this outside the city on boulders. Therefore, it is to be received when entering the city and returned once it is inside. I needed time for this process. There is a slight danger, but it is still close to the city and the army is waiting. Given the danger it brings inside, there is no choice but to be waited outside the bond.

"Yes... I checked my ID. Thank you very much."

"Guys."

Kite returns the Adventurer's registration card, which she presented with identification from the gatekeepers before getting off. Of course, you can't go into the city without a background check. This is why I have my registration card.

Incidentally, the registration cards held by the persons in the respective professions are similar, and thus may not be the registration cards of the adventurers. but the process gets a little cumbersome.

In the case of travelers of the general public who do not have these, an application must be made in the first place while they are travelling, and they are given something similar to the travel documents mentioned on Earth at the time of the application, so it is fine to present them.

Thank you for the Adventurer Registration Certificate.

"It's gonna take so long to say I don't like it without this."

Hearing Kite blur, Mel agrees that she was also receiving a return of her registration card from the attendant. When it comes to counterfeiting prevention, there is nothing more robust than an Adventurer Registration Certificate. That was even the part that was beyond the military's recognition votes. Because you are an adventurer with an individual with counterfeitable powers, strict attention is being paid to that measure.

And the process was also made easier by the fact that it was also perceived by the truth countries to be a difficult object to forge. That said, when it comes to travelers, the introduction of travel documents has saved them a lot of time as they have already applied for it.

Well, if you lose travel documents, etc. then the procedure is very laborious, as is the case with the Earth's travel documents, and forgery of travel documents, etc. is a felony, which is no different for Enefia.

"... you're getting big..."

Into the city, seeing the city lit by the sunset, Kate groaned emotionally. That's about as many tears flowed unconsciously. This was the first port town that Kate founded. I had the same attachment as Maxwell.

The fishing village that you should have seen grew to a good size by calling it the largest port town at the earliest time, and the fishing port, which had many wooden fishing boats except those held by the kites, is now the anchorage of ships lined with narrow metal warships, transporters and passenger ships, where the sea handlers who unload and unload them are shouting out.

In the heart of the city, merchants selling goods from other continents, from another territory of the Empire, and from other countries created stores, making the beauty of one of the most prestigious port towns in the Duke's territory certain. The only thing like that at the time was a beautiful, clear, pristine sea. Ships that should be called Magic Boats, developed by magic, use little chemicals and have little pollution of the sea. City development, no, it's the same even for civilization. Consequently, even now that development has progressed, nature is more protected than the Earth, and the sea of beauty is preserved.

"" Portland Emelia ". Maxwell's first port town. The name comes from the port town that originated from the first mayor, Emelia Earthra. It's a city where all the Duke's harbour towns have become 'Portland and whatnot'. The name behind it is mostly a human name that contributed to the development and development of the city."

Mel, who had asked about the carriage back home, approached Kite, who was immediately overwhelmed when she started walking out of the carriage, explaining with a bitter smile.

Because she couldn't help but be overwhelmed by this sight, she didn't question anything about this look of Kate. Because when she saw this city too, she was accidentally swallowed by its beauty.

This is the largest port town in the Empire. It is one of the international points of contact leading to Maxwell, the largest city. Huge and livelier than the port town close to the Imperial Capital. That doesn't change in the evening, but on the contrary, the lights of street lights start to shine everywhere in the city, reflecting a $1 million night view that is rarely seen in Enefia, and no less than Earth. It was natural to be overwhelmed. So in response to Mel's words, Kate replied raw.

"Oh... you know, the big battleship..."

If you looked toward the harbor, you would have first seen a ship that was more than twice the overwhelming size of a ship docked in a harbor lined with 100-metre ships, a giant warship with a far more gigantic turret on its bow than any other.

"Oh, that's Queen Emelia. It's equipped with a single 70cm demon guide gun, two 50cm demon guide artillery guns on both sides and other small turrets, and a triple defensive barrier for defense. Imperial Navy First Fleet Flagship. It is an honorable ship to be embarked by His Majesty the Emperor in times of war or disturbance at sea. I mean, the Imperial Army flagship."

I know, Kate almost squeaked unexpectedly. Although it was the history that traced it that I didn't know, only that ship knew. Because Kite is also present in its construction and watering ceremony. To the point of forgetting to board his own ship, Kite was no fool.

"Construction is now 300 years old. It is the flagship of a fleet of brave men from all over the Empire who have been gathered and built by the legendary Unified Demon Emperor, Justina Mistoltin. Thereafter, in the naval battle that took place after the brave men returned to Earth, His Majesty the then fifteenth Emperor was given by the Duke's family to His Majesty Emperor Wisterias to assume his duties as the Commander-in-Chief of the Fleet without ever allowing a single bullet to be fired. And then for 300 years, all sorts of warships will be built, but the queen, who still has the ability to do nothing else, will continue to reign as a queen with fame, just the face of the sea of the Empire."

Note that the size of the main gun is quite large relative to the size of the ship, but this is because it does not require gunpowder. Because they use artillery, or demon guided artillery, which uses artillery with no recoil about the size of the artillery, they were able to mount a considerably larger caliber combined artillery. Furthermore, the fuel is covered by the magic created by a furnace called the Magic Conductor Furnace - which is the same for airships - and as a result, the number of soldier outfits and calibers that can be mounted has increased.

"I'm familiar with that."

Kite is impressed with the narrative that comes out to flow sluggishly. And Mel answered with a slight chest strain.

"I'm still a noble daughter."

That's what I said, I saw Mel with his nose high, and just a little bit of prank sprout in Kite. I thought I'd give you information you didn't know.

"Actually, it's still a prototype ship."

"To?"

Mel rounds his eyes to the words of Kite. He still didn't know about this information. That said, if you look it up, it's a story that comes out. There are no other notebooks that are properly described as' prototyped '. So in the part I left in my notebook, Kate speaks.

"Actually, it looks like the bow cannon is still incomplete. Especially the main cannon. It seems to be an unfinished product that can only shoot one shot a day. Well, to be precise, it seems that Queen Emelia was built as a test ship if it were to be equipped with a main gun that size. Er, that main cannon is sure..."

That's what Kate said and it's bothering her head, Mel replied.

"... 70cm Demon Guided Single Artillery? Be hated with that ba firecracker?

"The notebook was based at the time, so I don't know the hatred either. He originally wanted to use it as a 100cm demon guide 5 serial cannon... well, even the brave ones at the time, 3 serial would be enough, he thought."

Kate smiled bitterly and remembered Tina, who seemed sorry to say so. Even Kite at the time is so overkill that I think she's not stupid, but it's useless to say anything to her that she just wants to make. It's useless where I preached military balance, etc. All I can say is that it's bad for someone else who can't chase him down easily.

So, including the later emperor, he at least kept me to about three assemblies that I could say were necessary, and I just ended it with him. It should be noted that the artillery is still incomplete. Because there was no data for Emelia.

"You... are you stupid? There's no reason for that. That's about the end of most naval wars in one shot, isn't it? The last time it was used was 100 years ago, but in doing so, it wiped out a kilometer radius, because it was a substitute."

Mel is stunned by Kite's words, but I think Kite is an idiot too. But it is true. And if I may say so without hesitation, Mel knows that there are demons that cannot be crusaded in the range of 1 kilometer. It could be said that about 3 assemblies are necessary for 5 assemblies anyway.

As soon as the main cannon is complete, Nagato-type and Yamato-type - Sang, we're not building a ship that remains historical on the boulder, we're just getting a name - come and breathe, so apparently we haven't done enough yet.

"Well, if you knew then, you wouldn't have a choice if you thought you needed it."

Incidentally, there is no reason to know the bitter Kite, but Tina is currently secretly building Enefia's first giant air carrier. The completion rate was 80%, and it was almost ready. Later, they do practical tests such as catapults, and they just take the data and make fine adjustments. Golems are still working in underground laboratories, but there's no way Kite, who's been away from Maxwell lately, would know.

When it comes to what to put on this, it is classified as a large demonic armor, such as a demonic conductor, or a small combat airship for anti-Tenryu and anti-airship, which can also be called a fighter. The development of air carriers was actually necessary because the movement of large demonic guided armor was forcefully suspended from the limits of the airship to ground transport and airships by dedicated transport vessels that applied the technology of the airship.

"Well, I don't know if I can think of a catastrophic species... I don't care about that. Don't you dare, let's find an inn. With all this, I think there are a lot of empty inns."

While expressing her agreement with Kate's words, Mel decided to check in the library or something if she felt comfortable. I don't need to worry about it much, because I heard that Kate showed me the original notebook via Kuzha.

By the way, there's a reason Mel doesn't care about the extra room. Since this is a port town visited by people from all continents and countries, quite a few inns were deployed. From the finest hotels where the emperor stays, to regular hotels where the average traveler stays, to adventurers, etc. who have no money, there was a wide variety of accommodations. If it wasn't even an event, it was difficult to think of everything as full.

"Well, I hope the familiar guy's room is empty."

"Oh, you've been here before?

Naturally, Kate is also an adventurer, so it wasn't strange to be here, but Mel had decided that she had never come from the mouth earlier. So Kate said she was familiar, so I was surprised. but there was a slight misunderstanding about this.

"Hmm? No. Someone I know is staying over here."

"Ah, that's what you say. Then the inn is east of the city. I like the place where you can see the ocean."

"Don't be like that."

It would be a shame to not enjoy the sea, even though it is a city facing the sea. Therefore, on the east side, where the sea was seen, the inn was disturbed.

So they headed to the eastern side of the city and decided to look for the lodging first to ask for a vacancy in the lodge that Kate's familiar said would run.

I wanted to show my face because I had come to the nearest field for a favor and they admired me for being a nice guy. but this was a mistake.

"This, huh?

I came to ask a former acquaintance, but when I saw the building, Kite shrugged unconfidentially. Kite was a little unexpected.

The hotel was clearly one of the finest hotels on the planet, or no less luxurious than the luxury of the adventure club's guild home, which makes use of former luxury hotels.

"... here? Am I wrong?

Seeing the beauty of the inn, Mel pulls the dong. A little, on the contrary, it was a rather luxurious lodging. That said, this was also unexpected for Kite. but it's hard to say it's not the same anymore because I showed Mel the business card that I also got.

"The name of the sign on the business card I got is with me... I used to be a smaller lodging house made of wood..."

Kate shrugged slightly, comparing it to the business card she had once received. Kite also gets a little anxious when she sees signs that have become overwhelmingly more luxurious than they were at the time.

But there were landmarks that Kite and those who knew this store for a long time could understand, and the name of the business card was with them. Mel checks again and again, but that didn't change.

As soon as he entered the store, the attendant approached him, of course. Naturally, the staff were educated according to the appearance of the building, and there was no way to change the response to them that appeared to be ordinary travellers to that of the nobility.

"Welcome. Welcome to our hotel. Is this your first customer?

"... Can I use this membership card?

A little anxiously, Kate takes the cards out of her purse for the members this innkeeper does. Note that the membership card system of the inn is the first of its kind in Enefia, so leave it because it may be famous or unrelated.

"Let me check... Sure, that's the card we're distributing. May I take a few? It's quite old, so you'll need to verify your identity."

"Oh, well, I'll make you wait in that chair over there. Call me if you need any ID, etc."

"Yes, sir."

After receiving a courtesy of the lobby attendant, Kate returns to the couch near the lobby where Mel waits. That's how I nod at Mel with a bitter mix of laughter.

"I knew it was here"

"... where did you get to know someone from a store like this?

I thought you would have more money than yourself, but I didn't think you'd be familiar with such a luxurious inn. Also, Kite didn't think it was such a luxurious place to stay either. It's a big day, I heard, but you wouldn't think it was this far.

"No, well, I didn't know it was such a fancy inn. The general manager here? I've helped. Thanks for the membership card... well, I have the lodging fee on the boulder. I made a lot of money crusading the carriage so far."

"Welcome"

That said, Mel is convinced. If it's this big of a lodging, it's not strange that the general manager is on errands to Maxwell. Kite, who focuses on Maxwell, must have helped at that time.

Meanwhile, officials who had their membership cards deposited were confused when they entered the confirmation.

"Hmm? Membership number one?

An employee at the reception who saw Kite's membership card blinks her eyes through a dedicated magic kit. If you're number one in a historic hotel, it's what it was when it was founded. I wondered what such a young man had.

"What's wrong?

Seeing such a reception, a well-dressed man approached me who had just come out. He looked pretty young, but his ears were a little pointy, obviously not human. So there was a good chance that my age was more than I looked, but my appearance would be about the age I graduated from college.

"Ah, general manager. No, you know, a customer gave this person a membership card..."

"Oh, this is from the beginning, I miss it... did the Weisslitters or even the Bernstadts come... is that it? This..."

The general manager looks at Kite's membership card and his pupil cracks vertically. In addition, multiple changes occur in the eye, making it a characteristic eye. It is the dragon eye of the dragon clan's characteristics. It was a change that appeared when they became human and their emotions dawned. When their emotions are high, part of their body becomes the original dragon's. Although many eyes turn into dragon eyes, some dragon tribes sometimes have horns.

"... who is this membership card?

The employee responded to what was asked, surprised by the rare change in the general manager.

"Oh, that customer over there..."

That said, the employee at the reception points to Kite by hand. And when he saw it, the general manager gave him the look of happiness he deserved.

"Ah! That guy! I'm sorry! Thank you!

That said, employees were watching the general manager rushing out in a rare fashion.

"Mr. Kite!

The general manager rushes up to Kite. He looks good and looks good. When I said some nobleman, it seemed to work well enough.

"Oh! I thought it was a crushed moon store!

Kate looks back at that voice, and she sounds happy and nostalgic to see such a young man.

"Yes! Hey, I miss you! Sorry, I didn't get to say hello."

The crushing moon offered his right hand and asked Kite to shake his hand, and Kite responded accordingly. By the way, what he is saying is a night club that took place when Kate returned. The crushing moon had also been invited, but unfortunately it was impossible to attend because of the errands that could not be removed. It was impossible to schedule a boulder for everyone.

"Oh, fine. You've been here ever since, haven't you? It's become a big store so far."

"Haha...... thanks to you. If you hadn't gotten all kinds of mouthwatering and ideas back then, you wouldn't be here right now."

They rejoice in reunion, taking care not to sound surrounded for once. but unfortunately, the crushing moon is also busy. After a little chat, I got to the point.

"So, what can I do for you today? I don't think any of you are going to be together..."

"Oh, no... I'm here at your request as an adventurer. So, I'm looking for a place to stay with my client... are you free for two?

"Wait a minute... yes... two... yes... yes, I'm fine. I'll have the keys with you in a minute."

The crushed moon uses incense-shaped magic props and asks about room availability. So far, it was a massive hotel, and the luxury goods were handed over to the staff. Then, after confirming that there was a vacancy in the crushing moon, I received the key from my hand and handed it over to Kite.

"Ooh, Thankyou."

"No, to this extent, it's cheap to use...... hmm? Didn't you... meet somewhere?

Handing the keys to Kite, looking at Mel standing up, she had something to catch her. The crushing moon asked Mel. To the words of the crushing moon, Mel tilted his neck only slightly.

"... No, I've never seen him before."

"... Really? I'm sorry. I've met a lot of customers for a few minutes, so I think I've mistaken someone for me."

Apparently, what you would be lying about is that I also detect the crushing moon from the moment it was slightly present. but this one is a hotel employee, and the other is a guest and benefactor's client. There was no point pointing that out. Mel is also guessing that, but he laughed and accepted the apology of the crushing moon only to pass that he didn't know each other.

"No, you don't have a job, either."

"Thank you. So, what is a request? If I may ask, may I ask?

Since it was enough to ask Kite, the crushing moon asked with a little interest. When Mel saw that there was nothing to explore in the crushing moon, she decided to answer the question.

"Yeah... I'm going to the labyrinth of this city."

"Is that... you know that labyrinth (dungeon)?

I've heard more rumors about the moon than I have about being in this city. Beyond that, it was reasonable to ask Kite, except you know it or not.

"Yeah, I know. But there's a reason."

"Oh, that's quite a translation. We need to crush the lowest sword dancers."

"Really... well, I won't ask for details, but if you're Mr. Kite, you're relieved"

Mel was surprised at the crushing moon, smiling without any problems. Only those who trusted their strength could see the absolute trust floating there.

"Is this guy famous?

"... didn't you know and ask for it?

He thought the crushing moon had asked for Kate knowing she was a brave man. I didn't give up anything because it was a place like this on a boulder, but now I realize that it didn't go through with it. To the words, Mel was suspiciously frowning. Well, he wouldn't think of it as a boulder, either, that we got to Kite by accident.

"No, I hope so...... Ah, yes. I'm sorry, Mr. Kite. Looks like a customer came..."

"Oh, it's good to see your face for a long time. Well, I'll show you my face when I have time."

"Yes, I'm looking forward to it"

So he dropped off the crushing moon leaving, and Kate and Mel headed to leave their luggage in the room once.
