I started making balloons with Gran.

Start by talking to Gran about the structure and mechanism of a simple balloon.

If you put it very simply, it means that the air in the bag cloth can be warmed at high temperatures to generate buoyancy and float.

To do so, a device that generates high temperatures is required, but flame ore is used for this purpose.

And I decided to have something sturdy that was the cloth part but as strong and tear resistant to heat as possible.

It was decided to use the hair of another creature rather than the hair of a goat for this purpose.

That's Valkyrie's hair.

Valkyrie is a strange animal that can get into hot water, but its hair seems to be quite refractory.

Actually, I've tried making fabrics out of Valkyrie hair loss before.

fabric with bright white Valkyrie hair. That was a beautiful one.

Probably even finer than the finest made by sorting goat hair.

However, this Valkyrie hair fabric was kept in stock.

Or very few people know that they've made it out of Valkyrie hair.

Because the goat quickly grew hair but Valkyrie didn't.

I got worried that if I got on track and cut Valkyrie's hair, they wouldn't be able to get past the winter.

So since I first tried it, I've banned using Valkyrie's hair.

But the fabric I made was still there.

That's what I used to make this balloon.

Burn resistant, light, and durable fabric.

It was used as a cloth for balloons, and a basket section was mounted underneath which people could ride.

In the middle of the basket part is mounted a flame ore processed by the grain.

If you pour magic here, the flames will come out and the balloons will float to the sky.

"All right, that's done. Let's give it a try."

"... the awkward are afraid. Lord Ars is the only one who wants to ride."

"Why not? You need a technician for what if. Besides, it would be important to see how it feels to actually use it."

"You're not going to ride Lord Ars for saying that. I don't like the awkward. I don't think I can fly in the sky with this. I'm sure you'll crash in no time."

"'Cause it's okay. Trust me, Gran."

"I don't like it. Awkward people can't do much about it. Lord Ars, isn't it Lord Ars who wanted to fly in the sky? It would be best if Lord Ars himself tried it."

"No, it's fine with me to ride it myself, but I guess one is thin. Do you want someone else to ride with you..."

"You got it. Then the Awkward will bring something to fly into the sky with Lord Ars. I'll be waiting."

A balloon completed by Gran and me.

But he said he didn't want to ride the balloon.

I don't have to wonder what a thin one he is.

but I don't even know what it would be like if something did happen.

Will this really fly properly?

Yes, I forgot.

I'll have to make a parachute or something just in case.

After Gran was gone, it was when I was thinking about it.

Apparently Gran is back.

It was the two of us that the gran brought.

Those were the people I knew very well.

"What's wrong, Brother Ars? Mr. Gran's been crying..."

"Kyle. No, I made it with Gran. I'm freaking out that you're telling me to fly in the air with this. What do you say Kyle join me in the balloon?

"Um, it does look scary, doesn't it? Are you all right?

"Maybe. I have to give it a test drive to prove it."

"Oh well. All right, Als, if you're with your brother, I can ride."

"Oh, that's great, Kyle. All right, Kyle as riding with you......, you coming with me, Tanatos?

"Oh, that's good, Ars"

"Okay. That's it. I got to lose it. So, do you three ride? Gran, keep an eye on where we're flying in the air. I'll definitely let you tell me I should have been on my first test drive later."

"You got it, Lord Ars. Awkward, keep a good eye on the balloons from the ground. If that's what it takes to confirm the commissioning."

"Do you want me to leave that to you? All right, then we're off. Get in the basket, both of you."

Kyle and Tanatos get in the basket with my words on the signal, and at the end I get in.

And I put my hand on the middle part of the basket and said, "Magic injection."

As a result, flaming ore reacted to magic creates a flame at the top.

And the air inside the balloon was warmed and inflated by that flame, and the cloth of the balloon swelled like a balloon.

Flaming ore that keeps flaming.

And finally, the time has come.

I thought I was flabbergasted for a moment, and then the balloon gradually lifted.

Slowly, slowly, our riding basket rises and leaves the surface.

I did.

Success.

"Hey, look, Kyle. I floated. You're flying."

"Yeah, it's true, Brother Ars. Heh, you really float in this way."

"Not yet, we're about to, Kyle. It should go up higher. You can see Vulcania from the top."

Balloons increasing in altitude.

Whatever it is, it's my first balloon experience.

I got pretty excited.

And I was on track to raise the balloon high and high.
