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

Tina was going to investigate the 'space-time stone' apart from Kate. In parallel to that investigation, she had tested the Magic Machine and its uniforms for use in certain circumstances.

And in the midst of that, there was a battle by the troops of the Magic Machine, which became a battle with a bunch of demons said to be a giant species and headed Raul and Al, but it was over without a problem about it.

"Hmm... the pilots I'm used to enough. Is there a problem?"

Tina nodded one as she watched the Al's fight. For now, I don't see any factors causing problems, and reports from small boats scouting the perimeter indicate that demons are approaching in the aftermath of this battle.

If so, it would be okay to return the fleet to its original position at the same time as this test ends. And the report came in where I was thinking about it.

"Major, a drone released into the ground has reached a predetermined position."

"Mm-hmm? Oh, yeah. Now let me show you the results."

"Yes."

At Tina's direction, the results of the investigation from the drone that caused the monitor to infiltrate the ground are displayed. This one is unlike kite's side. There is no limit to its size, and the drone is loaded with a small demon conductor. The inspector may be said to be compact due to the size issue, but still had several times the detection range compared to the hand-held formula of the kite.

"Hmm... there are still a lot of 'flying stones' in the area"

It originally unleashes drones toward the layer of "Flying Stone". Tina took it for granted even when she saw the results shown. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean I won't do anything.

"Do you want to collect one affordable sample for now"

Though the existence of dozens of kilometres of 'flying stones' in the ground is known, rarely do we get samples of 'flying stones' in the ground. We can't get samples from technical problems to this area in the first place. Tina and I were barely able to get it at the time 300 years ago.

If I could get a raw sample, I just wanted to get it. Therefore, Tina decides to move to manipulate the drone to obtain an affordable sample of "Flying Stone". We need to move the drone to find the Space-Time Stone anyway. So there was also a place where the cost of getting to and from.

"... All right. Let's do this."

Tina laid eyes on Kobushi's massive 'Flying Stone'. The manipulator attached to the drone is manipulated and stored in the containment unit.

Note that special materials are used in this containment unit. 'Flying Stone' reduces gravity as a property. It could have reacted with a nearby demon conductor to alter the drone's self-weight and render it immobile. Therefore, it was said that the hangar used materials that shielded the surrounding magic.

"Well... now we have a sample of this flying stone. Next, the goal is" space-time stone "…"

According to correspondence from Kate, the difficulty of obtaining seems to be at the level of difficulty that comes out of time and helps. First of all, I definitely don't think it's easy to find it. Nevertheless, I knew that, so the drone had made a bunch of planes and thrown them down to various places until now, letting them search by auto.

So this is one of them. Then he wanted to find out why he even got a sample of "Flying Stone" here, and whether there was any difference by location. Even though we know it's buried there, we don't really know if there's a difference in nature depending on the location.

If so, we can say that this is also necessary. It is a hassle to collect these from the boulders on this expedition, so the drone, which only found "flying stones", is to send a separate collection unit.

"Well, there's no way you'll find me anytime soon."

I wish I could have found it that easy, but I understood that it was desirable, no matter how much Tina. So when she switched the drone operation to auto, she sat deep in the chair. And at the end of the inspection of such a drone, the report came in again.

"Major, the battle is over."

"Mm... right. Now put the fleet back in position and resume training."

Copy that, sir.

All you have to do is wait. When Tina decides so, she orders the training to resume again. In that way, she would spend several more days with her in various places, conducting geological surveys and testing magic guides.

Tina leads the fleet in the name of the geological survey and leaves Maxwell for roughly a week. It's about the day Kate found Space-Time Stone. In Tina's case, he had unleashed drones at dozens of points, later just waiting for the results. So the fleet was already on the way back. Tina had a slightly bitter face in such a airship.

"Hmm... well, I knew I rarely found it"

What Tina saw as a drop point this time was where the previous geological survey had assumed a relatively shallow layer of 'flying stone'. If it was too deep, it could have been too deep to get the signal, and there would be a higher risk of encountering demons. Some drones have now been destroyed by demons, and I was worried about sending another drone to investigate.

"Hmm..."

The number of drones currently in operation - even more available only in the number currently in operation - is roughly 60. Although it is not strict, it causes approximately 10,000 hours of investigation to be carried out as an extension time, but the results are not fragrant. As for the total area, it is good to say that about half of Japan's land area has been examined. Still, I can't find it. I can't help but look bitter.

"Maybe we should think of it as being in a layer of 'flying stones' in deeper formations..."

I can't find the shallow layer by looking around like this. When it comes to it, what is normally considered to be non-existent is that it is not wrong to deduce whether it is Kate or Timona. Nevertheless, the fact that we can't find it means that the place we're looking for is bad.

"Mmmm... I can't deal with drones now when I'm underground any more..."

The drone we have this time is about a meter in size. It has a rectangular shape and feels like it has made the Shinkansen toy a little huge. This was the magnitude of the limit that she could miniaturize today after bringing various features. When it came to making her perform any more, I had to scale it up no matter how much she was.

"But then you're more likely to find the demon this time... it's a difficult story..."

It has to be miniaturized in order not to be found, but then the signal will no longer arrive and it will be out. The place where the drone goes is underground. It is no exaggeration to say that it is always covered in shields. As a result, the signal is much harder to reach than outside. All that was inevitable, no matter how much magic was used.

If so, we will have to scale it up and increase the output to respond, but when it does, it will be easier to find it in the passing object mentioned by Tina, which is why. Her face was therefore troubling.

"Mmmm..."

What's the matter? In conclusion, we ultimately have to wait for Kite's findings, but if the situation isn't pleasant there, then we need to think about next.

If so, there was no harm in thinking about it now. and Tina was thinking about what to do next that way, but the reaction came back from one of the dozens of drones she unleashed.

"Mm?"

In fact, "space-time stone" is not the only thing that the drone I prepared set up to react to this time. It's rare to go so deep in the ground. Because of this, Tina had set it up to react if there was anything that was rarely available like demon stones that had been around for tens of thousands of years like Aigis and the others.

As for you, if you look around half of Japan's land area on the boulder, you will find a few, so she thought it might be the same, so she showed the results. but that's how she unexpectedly opened her eyes when she saw the results.

"... this is..."

A reaction I've never seen. That's the report Drone sent me. Besides, Tina gets a serious look. This was very likely a 'space-time stone' reaction.

Because from them, it's a substance I've never seen as a 'space-time stone'. Therefore, no one sample exists and no one data exists. When that happens, it is correct that the information expressed in the inspection machine becomes unknown.

"… Captain. Later. I had more reaction than one of the drones. Head over there. Coordinate data will be sent there from now on."

'Copy that. Send the fleet to coordinates. "

Following Tina's contact, the captain of the airship immediately takes the helm. We still don't know what this is, but we needed to recover it more than likely. Thus, the fleet arrives at its destination that evening.

"It's not supposed to be this one..."

Standing off the airship and down to the ground, Tina uses a wearable device attached to her arm to operate a drone that has been moved near the surface. That's how such a drone under her direction appeared on the surface.

"Okay."

After all, although fine scratches were seen everywhere because they were moving through the ground, they were sometimes small and could not be noticed due to the fact that they were not found in demons. It would be good to think that the inside is safe.

So when she recovers the drone, she launches the fleet into McDawell again. And that's how on the way back to my room with Drone in my hand, a report came in from Aigis, who was coming to this assistant this time.

"Mother."

"Hmm? What?"

"The master has contacted me."

"Mm-hmm? Oh, have you had a little while?"

As a matter of course, both are contacting each other in a more timely manner than they are looking for the same item. but kite spent more time not at the base, so he was trying to keep in touch with his return time to the base. If I was out to collect the drone this time, they'd be a little behind schedule.

Nevertheless, the fact that he sent word meant that he had already returned to the base. You won't have a problem sending me back to you. So when Tina deposits the drone with Aigis, she enters the communication room of the airship.

"Kite. I'm sorry. We've made a little progress here, and if we deal with it, we can take it."

'Oh, Aigis tells me. There's been a disturbing reaction from the drone, huh?

"Hmm. I haven't looked inside yet, so I can't say for sure, but it's more likely."

'Right. Actually, we were just spotted. "

"What?"

Almost simultaneously? Tina opened her eyes slightly to coincidence. but I reconsidered that this could also be possible after a little thought.

"No wonder."

'Well. My side has the support of Tokuna. Without it, we'd still be investigating. "

In the first place, the performance of the inspection machine held by Kite has been multiplied by the modification by the hand of Time Nao. In other words, contrary to the original prospects, the investigation had proceeded at several times the pace.

Sometimes there is time beyond investigation due to the influence of the ground vein, and considering the other thing, we could have considered it a coincidence. And that's why Kite, who laughs, asks Tina.

'So, I found two for now... how soon can you be back?

"This one can probably return tonight. There was a reaction on the way back. A little off the sidewalk."

'Well... this one leaves tomorrow morning, so I can return the day after tomorrow at noon. Be ready for the exam by then.'

"Uhm."

'Space-Time Stone' can be described as an unknown substance for modern Enefia. Therefore, the confirmation was to be carried out in full by decree of the Emperor Leonhardt, and Kate had been ordered to be present.

He would be able to deal with whatever happened with the help of the Great Spirits, and Tina agreed on this. As a matter of fact, he can handle anything in case something happens with the help of Time Noh. Given the possible dangers, this degree was reasonable. So Tina decided to return that night and start preparing for Kate's return the day after tomorrow.
