"Demon Stone, okay, food, okay. You're all set."
"Admiral, are you sure you're all right? Stop flying in the sky and shipwreck again."
"It's okay, 'cause, Vargas. It's a new balloon that I've improved on based on my last failure. No, I don't think that's a very good way to say balloons."
"Are you sure you're okay with this? I don't know if it's new, but this time around, the enemy might come while the general's gone."
"Yes, I'm fine. This is a successful exam flight, and there's no problem."
"Totally, really. Well, if the Admiral says so much, I won't stop any more. Take care and go."
"Oh, thank you, Vargas"
The slow-moving Memento army.
I decided to go check it out with my own eyes.
The Memento family, which is now heading north, is marching with an estimated 40,000 troops.
And the route is coming through multiple aristocratic territories.
Nobles in that territory, or knights, if they were meant to be, would not admit, for example, the movement of troops of other nobles.
Anyway, I don't know when or what the army will do.
Maybe he'll be attacked by another aristocrat on his way to Fontana.
Alternatively, they may loot from villages and towns on the route of progress in the name of securing food.
It is clearly too dangerous.
but the Memento family kept going north while allowing such dangerous military passage.
That is because the Memento family is a great nobleman of sorts.
If that army turns to us, it can be devastating.
Then sometimes it will be decided that it is better to allow passage even if some problems arise.
In addition, there are other reasons.
That had to do with the presence of Fontana, or Barca.
The territory of the Fontana family, which has continued its rapid expansion in the last few years.
The Urks, who had ruled the neighboring territories, were forced to cut off and cut off the territories.
And even more on the other side, the Arborest family is in a great defeat that weakens their forces to such an extent that superior magic cannot be used.
If so, the aristocracy south of Fontana territory thinks so.
Fontana's next aim must be our territory to the south, he said.
If so, this Memento family move is not a bad thing.
This uproar, which originated with the King's presence, makes sense for the Memento family to defeat Fontana.
Whatever it is, the Memento family is not in contact with Fontana.
With Fontana and the end of the battle open, the territory obtained even if Fontana is defeated becomes an enclave and management is sweetened.
That way, the fisherman's interests may be targeted.
Or it's enough that Fontana loses and can't move.
If we lose the power to target our own territory, it will be easier to deal with it.
In other words, given the danger that the great army of the Memento family will pass through its own territory, but I suppose it is more profitable to quietly allow passage.
That is why the Memento family is coming towards Fontana through other noble territories in our faces.
But vice versa, the story is different.
It would not be easy to allow Fontana's army to march south.
In particular, since the creation of the three new positions, the nobles of the south have tightly closed their positions of self-rule.
At first, it became increasingly difficult to obtain information about the Memento family.
That's why I'm going.
There's no place to be, through an empty path.
"Yo solo!"
"Master Ars, what is that?
"No, I don't know, but is it like a signal to leave? So, what do you say, Payne? What's the new ride like?"
"Right. Exactly. I'm afraid it's my first time flying the sky too...... But you're more stable than I thought."
"Well, there's still not that much wind today. I haven't rocked much, but maybe more. Yeah, I'll tell you what, if you're gonna throw up, just throw up outside."
"Hey, don't say that right after you start flying, Master Ars"
Travel through the sky for the reconnaissance of the Memento family.
That's why I got into a new balloon and jumped up into the sky.
No, more than that, I might say that's no longer a balloon.
If you blah blah blah, you could call it an airship, not a balloon.
Most of all, it's a small airship that's not that big.
It is not in a rounded and swollen state like a balloon, heating the interior of a rugby ball-like oval shaped cloth with flames out of flame ore.
It is larger than the balloons previously made and the size of the basket is large enough for more than 10 people to ride.
Why did you make the balloon airship type?
There was a reason for that.
That has to do with how to fly freely in the sky.
A balloon is one that heats the air in the cloth and floats with its buoyancy.
but the way to get around is to leave it to the air flow to drift.
The atmosphere is subject to complex changes in airflow due to its occasional conditions.
The airflow had to be read and the altitude of the balloon had to be adjusted appropriately so as to ride the flow of air flowing in the direction you wanted to go.
But you can't even wear such a complicated method overnight.
Now, while accurately reading the flow of air in the direction it was going, I wondered if it would turn on the power.
So the way it came out was the airship.
But it's a little different than a regular airship.
Normally, the buoyancy of an airship uses less gas than air.
But the only floating gas I could currently get was hydrogen.
Electrolysis of water with a thunderbolting sword obtained from the Arborest family would allow it to be divided into oxygen and hydrogen.
There was also a proposal to collect only the hydrogen in it and make it a buoyancy for the airship.
However, the idea was rejected.
Hydrogen gas has instability that reacts with air.
If we had an explosion and crashed while we were flying, it wouldn't just help.
For that reason, the use of hydrogen for airships was rejected.
but the shape itself changed to an elliptical airship type.
Because I did recall that that shape also had the advantage of being prone to buoyancy when it moved through the sky.
A small but ultra-fired heat source using flame ore.
Use it to put a fire on the airship just like a balloon.
And attach power to that airship.
That said, the power was not to use fire.
It was more primitive.
A newly created flying servant beast by Billy.
Connect him to the ship.
Shall I even name the bird-shaped servant beast that tracks people by the smell they've been in?
The tracking bird was big enough to stop over my shoulder.
But the newly hatched flying service beast was bigger than that.
A bird's servant beast with hairs about 1 m long.
Would this be a fairly large category to try as a bird?
But I just couldn't do anything to put people on and fly, even at that size.
but it was different when it connected to the airship.
Aircraft that have gained buoyancy by heating the air with flaming ore are floating in space.
If you ask me what objects are floating against gravity, I can say that they are in a lighter state.
If that were the case, flying multiple of its new service beasts would have pulled the airship.
Apparently, this servant beast wasn't good at recognizing the smell like a tracking bird, but it had different properties.
That means reading the air flow is very good.
In other words, I was able to fly through the sky with quite the force of moving the spacecraft into space by flaming ore and by serving beasts.
This was a feasible method because it was not a normal bird, but a servant beast of a nature that recognized and obeyed what people said.
Shall I name this servant beast after the wind bird in order to distinguish it from the trailing bird?
Thus, I succeeded in flying on the new airship to a place where the Memento family would be.
