Sweet Reincarnation
Episode 296 Return of the Morning Run
The ship shakes.
The relaxed voyage at the mercy of the wind seemed like the feelings of the crew themselves.
"I'm so tired...."
"Yes"
One of the crew members, Isaac-Liviveto, was with grief.
The voice of his men to a man who looks terribly grassy brings out the shade of labor.
"You did your best."
Isaac once again conveyed her gratitude as her boss to her subordinates, who were perhaps caring.
"No, I'm good at diving. This cold allowed me to swim in the cold, but this is not as much a trial as God has given me."
And Isaac's labored men sank themselves in the sea with eggs.
Early in the year. If not, I was at sea during the icy season. I often praise you for enduring well.
"Excellent faith. I will tell the Cardinal how it works."
"Thank you."
"But that deceived Morteln and Bombino. This is big."
"Yes"
Negotiations with House Morteln and House Bombino came together, thanks to the work of his men and Isaac's own efforts.
Some of the contents of the negotiations remained as concerns at a later date, such as the response when new evidence leading to the perpetrator was found, but the results were generally satisfactory for Isaac.
Anyway, at this point, Isaac and the others have the treasure.
It is satisfying to think that we could reward the Morteurs who have been scattered so far, or the Bombinos who have suffered in the battles of the past.
"But I didn't expect you to take most of the contents of the ship."
"It's called a safe, so I thought it was just a hand-held thing....."
Of course, we're dealing with that Morteln heretic. I've done a lot of horrible things here.
Numerous eggs in the ship. I took everything that I had been collecting so hard. Though it was helpful to think of the dragon eggs in case something should happen, it was unexpected that the whole thing would be taken away.
The initial assumption was that, for example, even if they were boarded on a ship, they would show and confuse a large number and a wide variety of eggs. No way, taking all of it is immeasurable Mortel's greed.
Above all, I was surprised that after signing the article that I would take the safe, I fished out a bunch of lockable boxes inside the ship, in addition to the Morteln family safe.
Sure, I didn't tell you which safe, but I didn't expect to be caught in the Captain's office.
"I can't help it. Even if there is a hole in the text, it is better to overlook it.... right?
"That's right. Ahahaha"
Isaac and the others laughed a lot.
Not only were all the eggs in the ship confiscated, but they were also confiscated in a safe in the captain's office and, ultimately, in a lockbox for the sailors' personal use. The text only had a vault and was taken backwards.
Originally, if you rub it with such an ambiguous part, it is the southern continent's way to renegotiate and resolve it by force. But Isaac accepted Morteln's logic.
However, even if there was a hole in the text, I accepted the reasoning that the overlooked side was bad.
To protect the dragon eggs, let alone why Isaac did it.
Return the eggs from the fleet.
In other words, eggs held by subordinates outside the convoy are not covered.
This is the use of truly clever texts.
Honestly, Isaac and the others officially got dragon eggs.
The stolen goods have already been returned. In other words, even if you are told to return the egg because it is stolen, you can refuse it with a tight chest. That's over.
Even if the identity of Isaac was required as the perpetrator of the theft in the text, by that time the egg itself was no longer in Isaac's possession.
Isaac laughed to get caught happy.
"Again, well done."
"I'm sorry."
Isaac beats his subordinates lightly and praises them for their achievements.
"It's been a cruise for a while. Rest slowly. If I catch a cold and fall asleep, it's my fault."
"Hahaha"
Is it because I've finished my work?
I suddenly feel that my strength has come off.
Isaac herself feels that way. A person who has been tempted to swim in the cold should be more concerned about his malaise.
The use of fire on a ship is limited, so I would like to give you something delicious to eat. That reminds Isaac of something.
"Yes, they do buy shikota fruit in Rateshburg."
"Oh, that's good."
Fruit is a precious commodity for sailors.
In a world without a fridge, fresh groceries get worse as early as a day or two. Although it is a season when things are hard to rot, it is good news that they are replenishing with fresh ingredients.
I sailed for a long time, and from there I didn't have time to enjoy a meal in the battle with time. Just a few days running through. Sweet fruit is a treat and a sweet temptation.
It seems that fruit has recently become more readily available in the harbor towns of the kingdom of God, such as Rateshbal and Nyerere. The crew of this ship is very good, if only they had bought it at all.
A luxury to keep with a good sailor. As a reward for his hard work, Isaac smiles and tells his men that he will be pleased first.
"You can eat as much as you want. After that, let's get you something warm. How about some soup?
There are other delicious fruits.
Warm soup and other treats are served on the ship.
On a rocking ship, and a wooden ship. It is common knowledge of ships that the use of fire is carried out with the utmost care.
So you have to use a lot of nerves to boil the water.
It was perfectly natural that cooks who cooked a large number of sailors often used dishes that could be cooked without cooking.
For example, is it a combination of seasonings such as carpaccio and raw fish, or is it something that has been preserved with some water to make it easier to eat?
Conversely, prolonged fire cooking is the most luxurious and feast on the ship.
"Is it meat?
"Of course. Respect the greatest meritorious and use the finest ham to cook."
"Ah, thank you."
Ham and sausage are popular among preserved foods.
Sometimes the flavour is delicious, but it is originally a luxury product.
Who's going to come out now?
Well then, let's go back to the room.
This evening's meal raised expectations, and Isaac and the others were relieved of their fatigue.
◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
After a few days of sailing, the Holy Nation's ship returned to the beautiful port town.
"You're finally back to your nostalgic Beauhan. It's a familiar sea."
And the fatigue of his fatigue was cleared, and the saints, who were so worried about their homeland, rejoiced that they saw their homeland to return to.
Originally, this assignment assumed the worst case scenario. In other words, it is the assumption that you will end your life in the kingdom of God. In fact, after being captured by the Bombino family's ship, the Morteln family's response to the incident was slightly incorrect, and the prisoner would have been in trouble. If anything, I might have lost my life in battle.
I came back safely.
Isn't that all there is to it?
"I don't want to dive in the ocean anymore.
A subordinate who was tempted to swim in the cold drowned Tikri and Isaac.
Of course, it's not that I'm dissatisfied, it's only half the time.
We have been together for a long voyage and, above all, we share the sense of accomplishment that we have overcome together. So to speak, he is a comrade. There is no wonder that it becomes a carefree relationship.
Especially his men have been sick after swimming in the cold. It may be taken for granted that I swimmed in the sea in the middle of winter.
It didn't matter because of the warm environment and the enthusiastic nursing around it, but if she died of pneumonia, Isaac's waking up must have been terrible.
I can forgive you for laughing a little sarcasm and frustration when you think that you didn't have to feel bad about your dreams.
Isaac watched lightly and raised her hands in a slightly exaggerated manner to take a reaction.
"Ha ha ha. Thanks to you, it worked. If you get this far, you'll be fine."
The harbour is already under the jurisdiction of the Holy Nation at the time the harbour is visible.
Here, Isaac, a dignitary of the Holy Nation, is strong no matter what happens. Because you can exercise your power to the fullest, and your allies are also sesame. It makes me stronger to be like the kingdom of God.
"The boat is here!! Be careful!!
I heard the captain's voice.
"Oh, here we are. You guys, don't lose your mind until the end."
"" Yes!!
If you come this far and get your treasure back, you won't even notice.
Isaac re-examined the grain in his pocket and prepared for the ship's landing.
As the ship arrives at the harbor and the sailors carrying the cargo work in haste, the disembarkation procedure is left to one of the men, and Isaac and the others head to the cathedral.
Of course, get in the carriage that was coming to pick you up. Without hesitating to greet them in the finest carriages, Isaac, as a dignitary of the state, is on his way back in style.
While being greeted by dozens of priests and bishops at the church, Cardinal Chafran sees the fifth wizard in the pride of the Holy Nation.
"Isaac-Liviveto, all of you have returned."
A clergyman in a luxurious costume greets the fearful wizard with an open welcome.
"Are you back safely? Thank you for your long journey."
"No, with God's blessing, nothing much will happen."
Isaac prays to God when reporting his return.
The Cardinal, of course, also offers his prayers of gratitude to God.
Isaac's mission is secret and few people know it. However, it is known to some extent that this was an important task, and if the difficult task was successfully completed, everyone thinks it was because of God's blessing.
All those who were there pray together.
Believing in God from the bottom of their hearts, they thanked God based on their faith and rejoiced that they were safe.
Once the prayers are done, the official return report is over.
The Cardinal invites Isaac to his private room, checks carefully, and then crumbles.
"And what about the neck and tail?
"Here."
Isaac picks up eggs confidently in a low and hopeful atmosphere.
Placed on a luxurious pedestal that had been prepared, it bluntly reflects and shines through the indoor lights.
"Well done!!
The Cardinal slapped Isaac on the shoulder with unbearable joy.
Ha.
The face of Isaac lowered her head with confidence and a smile.
"Tell me more. How did you get this?"
"Well, let's start with the King's Landing....."
Isaac talks about things with pleasure and pleasure. It is a pleasant atmosphere for a cardinal who occasionally uses his gavel as a listener.
I bought information and ambushed him in King's Landing. To have gauged the machine and acted at once. The fact that he shared the effort with his men to steal the safe from the Morteln family's mansion. And he went to the harbor with his men. I was caught trying to escape aboard a ship.
"What!? Got him!?
"Yes, but don't worry. It was really well cut out."
Isaac laughed, saying that the Morteln family's unicorn was a child after all.
Talk through the negotiation and show the signed document along with the actual settlement.
The Cardinal, who had been checking the contents for some time, wondered if the eggs secured at the corner had been recovered.
"It doesn't fit. In fact, I let my men carry eggs and escape."
"Ho! I want to know more."
As for Isaac, the hardest part of the mission was getting away with the eggs.
He hid his men while he was stranded, and let them escape, deceiving House Morteln and House Bombino brilliantly.
The more you listen, the more amazing it is.
"It's clear that I left the Morteln house and went behind the Bombino house."
"Thank you."
"So, is this the dragon egg... a strange color?
The clergyman lifts and observes each container without breaking the eggs.
The more you look at it, the more mysterious it is and the more lustrous it is.
The surface is "geometrically patterned” and its color is metallic. The colours of copper, silver, gold and a mixture of various metals make the feeling you see seem heavy, but the feeling you hold is surprisingly light. It's about the size of a "geese egg”, but it weighs just like a geese egg.
Later, whether this egg is alive or not.
If the eggs were alive and could hatch the dragon. The Holy Nation will have no trouble with Dragon Materials. If a living dragon had kept it, it would have been able to collect scales, nails, and possibly fangs every time it changed.
A man in a position to know the highest secret of the Holy Nation knows the value of dragon materials. In the Holy Nation, where magic research is thriving, magical materials, including light gold, are worth thousands of dollars. If it can be mass produced, the impact on the national interest is immeasurable.
In terms of merit, it would be an extraordinarily large achievement with no one standing in line. In a sense, profit is greater than taking away one country.
In other words, the status of Shizumi comes down right before your eyes and within your reach.
"Now I am the next Pope!!
Cardinal Collin-Est-Chafran's laughter continued for some time.
