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

Kite, who was collected separately to explore the sinking ship, was joined by five adventurers, including himself, to another hatch. That is how, before such a togetherness, the clerk of the Royal Lorelei Army showed his face. He was a different clerk from earlier.

"Well... we're going to have you guys investigate the sinking ship. Due to the special nature of the mission, you will be assigned an operator individually. Please accept my greeting later."

"There seems to be a small number of people, but... are you okay?

"Materials are scattered outside, and there was a reason I didn't want to go public with much. I want you to think that's why."

The clerk again explains the reasons for the doubts raised by one of the gathered adventurers. This time, the Adventurers gathered here are Rank S or A. Therefore, the price of the request fee was also different by digit. but this is also a request based on the assumption that everything will be kept inside.

"Well... what we're about to discuss is top secret. I want you to understand that again."

"I understand that we have gathered even Rank S adventurers to investigate a sinking ship... well. So what happened?

"It's good... everyone knows the Death Warlords are back in the meantime, right?

To the adventurers who rush ahead, the clerk first confirms what is said to be natural. If we can't confirm this, there will be no investigation. So I nodded at what everyone grasped as a matter of course and got to the point.

"You came in on this sinking ship, or it's possible they're involved in the reason for this sinking ship"

"What?"

The gathered adventurers, with the exception of Kite, went out of their way. He never thought the job description would involve "Death Warlord".

"Please calm down. It hasn't been finalized yet, and it's hard to assume that you set something up if you secretly came in the first place. If you think the reason for the sinking is also the power of that red treasure ball, Tsuji fits. And you will all know that it was destroyed in this battle."

"Then what do you want me to look into?

"It's a trail. There is certainly no possibility. Possible, but still possible in case. So you gentlemen have come to me as well, so... I want to get confirmation that there is no relationship. Or if it has something to do with it, I want proof of it."

Once again, the clerk asks the questioning of the adventurer with a serious flavour. For once, it is possible not to receive a request at this point, but if one sees no such voice coming from anyone, perhaps no one is thinking about it.

"So that's why the Japanese were among those collected this time..."

"I don't mind if you think so. I couldn't tell the boulder, but if I could, I would have them protected as well. I want you to think about it as an extra matter."

To the words of one of the adventurers, the clerk nodded. Apparently, both they and their information networks gathered Japanese adventurers. On the surface, there was no reason for the kites, but on the back, it was just in case there was a Japanese reaction ceremony. Of course, this is a cover story for Kite.

"Request."

"Oh, wouldn't it be a pleasant thing for you to ask a boulder to despise your life?

"Huh..."

The adventurers flaunt their shoulders. If it's a request to grasp your legs and protect them, they can't deny it. And if nothing happens, I'm asking you to make some money this time. To this extent, they were also complacent that they just had the strength to have no special problems. So one nodded.

"Aurai. Let's take it. So, what's the personnel breakdown? I heard the ship was in two pieces, with a large load of luggage in the front and a room for the captain's office and sailors in the rear. It's pretty much the back of the hall, isn't it?

"Oh. I want the first half of my request in this one to be mainly focused and investigated. From the outside, the damage was concentrated in the first half. If something had been set up, that would be it. Of course, the possibility of coincidence cannot be denied. Still, it's the front part where the load is concentrated. Even if there is anything left, it will be there. In the back of the captain's office, there's nothing that seems to bother me but the log of the voyage."

As I knew when the moment was watching, the ship sank in two. As a result, a little bit of tidal flow, etc. flowed into separate places during the period until it sank. They're just a little further apart. So I went into the personnel breakdown again.

"So four for the first half on the first day. He will be in charge of the second half alone. Of course, if we find the voyage log early, we'll have it merged into the first half. Later, depending on the status of the voyage log, I'm just saying."

"What's his strength?

Point to Kite, and one of the adventurers asks. Everyone saw everyone for the first time. And only one person behaves differently, so it's no wonder we ask about strength.

"I have water protection. I even use it. I'm not anxious about fighting underwater."

"... indeed. Then don't worry."

The adventurers firmly confirm the protection of the water that Kate floated - which Dine floated on. This is where they call for more water protection. Then the adventurers will be convinced that there will be no problem fighting underwater.

Fortunately, even when I say Japanese, apparently I didn't see it and figure it out. I guess they're all put together, he seemed to think. There seemed to be no particular need for excuses.

"Great... well, come on in and investigate"

"Okay... well, good luck with that one... but you're just going to the captain's office today? Be careful with the injuries."

"Oh, you too"

Kate raises one hand to the young adventurer who has spoken up and exchanges encouragement and rises. So at the same time, the hatch provided at the bottom of the ship opened and I could see outside. It was dim outside, to the extent that the ship's lights barely ensured its sight.

"Well, then, go"

Hearing the clerk's voice, the kites use their bracelets to unfold bubbles with snorkel-shaped magic props on their mouths, except for the Mermaids. At the same time as it went into the water, the voice of an army operator echoed through a communications machine.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Kite. This is Mayr, who told us about your exclusive operator. If you can hear me, please connect me to the comms. '

"I hear you."

"Thank you."

Military operators are feminine. I can't see his face, but he had a beautiful, clear voice that was common in mermaids.

'Then Mr. Kite is on his way, but supposedly there was an explanation earlier, but it will be the captain's office of the ship. There are no demon shadows around here. Safe.'

'Okay... what's the direction?

'I'll use the comms to direct you. First, take the comms with you floating underwater.'

I don't know any directions in the water. So I don't know where to go without you guiding me. Therefore, they also have the role of an indicator pointing to the direction to be targeted. So Kate put the given comms machine on top of her hand with the person she thought was above her.

"Will You Guide Me With Light"

'Yes, an advance army unit is setting the marker ahead of time. Follow the light.'

Copy that.

Kate takes Maire's word for it and starts swimming in the water. Just because you basically wrapped yourself in bubbles doesn't mean you can run in the water. Sure, I can walk and run under the procedure of consolidating scaffolding, but it can weirdly stimulate the perimeter.

If it's okay not to do anything, it's better not to do anything. So Kite follows the indicator and swims away. That's how swimming for about 5 minutes, I could see the wreckage of the ship.

That was the back part of the ship split in half, as they say. Apparently, the back part went up for some reason when it sank, and the stern part was leaning just slightly up.

"I saw the wreckage of the ship."

'The other adventurers should have already started their investigation... can you see the lights?

"... oh. I can see some light sources around me."

"Then there's no doubt about it."

Adventure Department personnel are not the only ones investigating. So there were more light sources than the Adventure Department personnel. Even so, the investigation was extensive and only a few were seen. I couldn't find everything.

'Okay... so tell me your investigation plan'

'Okay... investigation, can you check the captain's office from the outside first before you break in from the bottom?

Copy that. Where are you going?

'Located on the top floor of the ship, it is depicted in the plan. There seems to be no direct route from outside. "

"Okay."

Kate slowly approached the sinking ship with her bumpy feet, first glancing inside through a window on the top floor as she was told. Apparently, there was no doubt in the captain's office that there were several bookshelves in one bed, and even something like a safe. Since the stern was facing up and there were no holes in the room, it appeared that the air was still there.

'... the air seems to remain. There are no signs of vandalism inside. He didn't even have a demon in him until now. "

"A few survivors reported that a demon had entered the ship and dropped the bulkhead. Perhaps the bulkhead wasn't breached. '

'Right... is the power facility in front of you? Behind you?'

Kite thinks she needs to do something about the bulkhead to get in. You may destroy the bulkhead, but if you don't want to destroy it, that's better.

And it's a bulkhead of a ship this size. It would be difficult to lift bare hands in the sea alone, and there was a possibility that the lock was hung. If the power can be restored, we might be able to do something about it from there.

"It seems that this ship has two main and spare power supplies, and there's a main power facility behind it. If it has not been destroyed, recovery seems possible. Captain's office is safe, so don't destroy it too much and start infiltrating from the bottom. '

"Okay."

Kite follows Mayer's words and decides to start by restoring the power supply, which is said to be at the bottom. That one seems to be at the bottom of the power supply, and I was going to go in there from a crack that turned into two.

Fortunately, the Enefia ship is not moving with electricity. Recovery would be possible if the emergency stop only worked and stopped. And if we can restore it, we may be able to use the lights mounted on the ship to illuminate the surroundings. That would make the investigation even easier. but there was a problem trying to get on board.

'... you can't. The bottom layer is completely peppered, and the material that seems to have collapsed from the top is unlikely to get in the way'

'Okay... so why don't you go in from the hierarchy above that one? According to the schematic, there is a staircase in the aft part, from which you may enter'

"... oh, from here on in, I think I'm gonna get in"

"Okay, please."

The ship is apparently on all four levels, and Kite decides to infiltrate from the second level from the bottom. I don't know if it's the impact of the sinking or the impact of the battle, but it's pretty scratched, but at least there was enough room to move.

"Well... there must be a staircase behind this, and..."

Kite continues to follow the operator's words and continue upstairs in the aft direction.

"This door... I guess. Is everything all right here? Looks like it's opening. '

That's what Kite says, opens a metal door. Apparently, the water hadn't broken in yet. The air was full.

"Phew... apparently this staircase area is relatively less damaged. There was still air."

'Really... what do you say? Are you going to proceed to the power compartment of the lower engine section?

"... oh, I think I can go. I'll try."

Kate gets instructed by Maire and for now goes down with her foot on the wall opposite the captain's office and a little caution. Was the staircase destroyed in battle or was it unlikely to be of much use? Nevertheless, not so many days have passed since sinking, so I didn't have to worry much about the hull itself.

"Arrived in front of the door... yeah, it's still going to open"

Kite checks the tip of the door from a slight gap. Apparently, demons were intruding on the bottom floor. There were several signs of mutilation.

"It's finally... completely submerged, or..."

When Kate said so, she put the snorkel-shaped magic prop on her mouth again and let the bubbles unfold, entering the ocean again. After swimming for a while, we reached the power compartment and thought center of the engine department.

"... is the power... subtle"

It is a small demon conductor that is powered. but the tube for transmitting the energy was completely off the battle or sinking shock and it looked like it had to be reconnected.

'Is it possible to connect?

'Subtle... but I'll try. If I can connect one, I should be able to activate just the spare circuit...'

Kite mobilizes her knowledge to grab a tube that looks safe for now and fix it with dedicated tape to find a connection connector that looks even safer yet. I'm not starting the engine. If only the lights would light up. If you restore it slightly, that's fine.

"... here, are you okay...?

Kite manages to see a connector that looks safe and connects the tube there. I would like special tools and full-scale repair parts, but nothing is missing. So I'll temporarily stop it with the wreckage of the ship that was appropriately rolling around there and the members I brought in.

"Well... move it..."

In the meantime, we were able to secure the flow path, so Kite switches on the main power supply of the demon conductor. If there is no reaction here, the demon conductor itself will be deactivated. And, apparently, it was somewhat scratched, but it wasn't at its worst. A low, blunt sound was made and the demon conductor restarted.

"Good... did the spare starter live too"

"It has been confirmed that the power supply has been restored from outside."

"Right... ah."

"Ah..."

Two voices speak at the same time. The moving magic conductor has stopped. As such, Kate immediately entered the pursuit of the cause.

'... oh, this seems to have just entered an emergency stop due to engine loss. I think I can handle it.'

"Please."

Kate mocks the console of the demon conductor and cuts the parts that she thinks are unnecessary. All you need is to control the electrical installations, bulkheads, etc. that illuminate the ship and the ship. And just the living part about it is good too. This one can be used if you are about to sink.

"... good. You should be all right now. '

"... confirmed."

"For the part of the ship that is also alive, the lights lit up. This makes it easier to investigate '

Kite looks around to make sure it's only a little brighter. The electrical installations in the engine department itself appear to be almost dead, but not entirely. It was brighter than nothing.

"Now, please proceed to the Captain's office."

"Okay."

In the wake of Maire's words, Kate leaves the engine department behind. That's how Kite began to travel aboard again.
