Umi to Kaze no Oukoku

21 Stopped by?

I couldn't even have tea. It was Shaw and Wonder, but the measurement of the current location is excellent. While the version was being monitored by the two of us, we measured it and calculated the current location, but some of it got nervous and it got mottled.

"You just need to calm down, 'cause you've got plenty of time."

Version was trying his best to measure his current location for the officer promotion exam, but Shaw was in a hurry to finish the calculations faster than Officer Wonder. I was finally done calculating and I was discouraged by my slowness, but I am comforted that accuracy is more important to Wonder than speed.

"But Prince Shaw..."

Version cared that Shaw of the same year finished his calculations quickly.

"Master Shaw studied in mathematics at the University of Paloma at the age of 10. I can't compare it, so you don't have to worry about it. You're in a worse mood than that when you call me a prince. You can put it back on the ship, but during this journey, you'll call me Lord Shaw."

It's an officer's order, so the version nodded, but I still sigh hard to call it.

Neither was the map inland familiar, roughly just filled with mountains and rivers, but the location of the Kingdom of Surah on the east coast is definitive, so it doesn't look like you'll get lost.

Shaw would like to see McKinley Great Falls if he could.

"On the map, we'll be in the mountains from around tomorrow. Once the river that runs through the mountains builds up on Lake Maurey, it'll be McKinley Falls. What, this lower basin of the Zebio River is the Kingdom of Surah! We'll get there too soon."

Horizontally complaining that Shaw was too early from the distance he flew for a day at Sands, setting expectations of his arrival in the Kingdom of Surah, Wonder and Version sincerely hoped to get to Surizan's embassy as soon as possible.

"Let's still stop by Banham, the city of Oasis. The desert is called the land sea."

The two Navy members are totally different to the word that Shaw's desert is called the sea of land! and poisons inside.

"I don't want to go anywhere with all that sand."

I protest that it's romantic, to a cheeky wonder.

"If you connect the desert oasis to the oasis and fly, you'll be fine."

Wonder looks sinister, though it would be nice if Shaw's fingering oasis were in the exact position.

"You can't guess such a nasty map. Besides, desert oases sometimes have dry wells..."

To Shaw, who grinned, Wonder poisons me that he experimented yesterday, where there was still room for water, to seal his reasons against how to secure the water.

"You said you shouldn't use too much magic before... let's go to the Kingdom of Sassa and Surah"

It was Shaw on Sassa and Sands, ignoring Wonder complaining about the bumps.

"Sands, you're getting pretty close to the mountain. Is there somewhere that looks good for a break?

Sands got me down to flat land, but unlike the image of the hot Golce continent, it's cool even during the day.

"This could be cold at night. Tomorrow we're going to reach McKinley Great Falls, but the night camp may not have tree branches or anything to burn. Secure your eyes and carry them here."

Wonder also lived in the open for a few days, and when there was fire at night, he could eat warm food, and he still noticed a different sense of security. I knew the big carnivore wouldn't even get close to the dragon's side, but I find fire to be the most basic of human civilization because it's somewhat unsettling, considering howling and nocturnal hunting habits.

Besides, the time to talk around the fire at night was indulgent, keeping each other intimate.

"Yeah, well, I'd be in trouble if I didn't have a giraffe."

Shaw also liked to burn at night, so he quickly gathers dead branches.

That night, however, we were to find a small settlement in the mountains and receive the cultivation of the chiefs there.

'Sands, there are a couple of cabins over there, aren't there? Hey, will you fly low?

Around the settlement there are walls that combine branches to prevent wildlife from entering, and vegetable gardens are cultivated outside.

"Master Shaw? I don't even know if it's a friendly tribe. It's not going to rain tonight, and it's safer in Nojuku."

But it also makes me feel bad to ignore the villagers who noticed the low flying dragons because they waved their hands away.

"You're waving something serious, aren't you? Maybe there's a problem?

Some of the versions took the cloth out and saw it swinging big and felt like there was a problem.

"Master Shaw! I'm sorry about this place, but let's ignore it! Maybe there's a plague."

Wonder didn't want to get involved in the Cold Village issue because Captain Lessa had ordered him to take Shaw safely to the Kingdom of Surah.

"Plague? You don't look like that. Something very cheerful, shaking cloth."

Shaw didn't want to get near the plague village either, so he swirled the low altitude, but the villagers didn't seem to have health problems. But this seriousness is a way of shaking a cloth that makes me wonder if something is wrong.

"I guess I have something to do. If we're not friendly, we'll be flying soon."

"What? Are you going down?

From his childhood, Wonder sighs that there's something he can't tell you, and orders the version to leave his sword out at any time.

When we land Sands outside the village, the villagers gather together straw, but they stop farther in fear of the dragon.

Slowly an elderly chief-like figure walked out in front of Shaw and the others with a threaded wand. Shaw jumps off Sands and greets the chief-like figure.

"By chance, we passed over. My name is Shaw from the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands. I was about to go see McKinley Falls."

To the utterly faceless chief, Shaw was anxious to know if the words were coming through from the way, but when I finished greeting him, it came up in a less ambiguous official language.

"Non is Janim, the head of the village of Gorza. Lord Shaw is a dragon knight, isn't he? There are no dragon knights in the village, so I think he called Lord Shaw. Dragon Knights have a lot of magic, so you would have expected to be able to use healing moves, but can Lord Shaw use healing moves?

Wonder stands in front of Sassy Shaw and tries to say that there is no cure for the plague.

"I'm called Wonder. Mayor Janim, is the sick man in need of a cure a plague?

Janim realizes Wonder sheltered Shaw, but affirms it's not a plague.

"Pips, the grandson of Non, fell off a cliff. The village therapist says you can break your bones here and there and die or your life won't be able to walk, even if it helps. A dragon passed there, and Peyan must have called in desperately. I used to remember hearing that there were dragon knights in this village, so I heard they were superior in their healing skills."

If you don't want to be involved, Janim Village Manager sighs at how Wonder sheltered Shaw was in vain.

But Peyan, Pips' parent, wasn't going to give up. Stand in front of Wonder sheltering Shaw, forsaking the custom of not defying the village chief, etc.

"Can Lord Shaw use his therapeutic moves? If you can use it, help my son! Pips can talk to dragons! If your life helps, you could be a Dragon Knight. At the mercy of the same Dragon Knight, save your life. Otherwise, one dragon left in the village could die."

From the moment he heard the story, Shaw pushed the Wonder sheltering himself because he was going to do all he could.

"I don't know if I can treat it well, but I'll do whatever I can."

Wonder also signals the version with his eyes because he's really stubborn, wary that if he can't save his life, he won't be attacked.

I slept in a small cabin with pips wrapped around my bed in bandages. Next to the bed was the appearance of a therapist and mother waxed, replacing the cloth on her forehead, but there is despair in her eyes.

"You're the therapist. Where did Pipps break his bones?

Suddenly, Janim, the village chief, and Peyan, his father, were surprised because they brought a strange traveler, but they knew their limitations, so they tell them where the fracture was.

"It's not too bad for a bone that hasn't broken the pips. I was lucky not to break my skull and neck bone, so I spared my immediate death, but my hands, legs, and ribs are hurting my lungs. I managed to stop the wounds on the surface of my body..."

Shaw speaks to the doctor who looks worn out and says he will replace him. Activating the dragon-hearted stone filled the palms with emerald green light.

Remembering 'Healing', first heal the lungs damaged by the broken ribs and undo the broken ribs. The therapist was surprised to see the rough breathing settled.

"You are a very good therapist!

Shaw had tried to straighten his twisted hands and legs with a bandage, but wouldn't the problem be solved if he kept his bones tied back? and ask the therapist a question.

"I'm a dragon knight and I can use my healing moves, but I'm not a healer. If we keep the bones connected, maybe we won't straighten them out? Ouch, but if you don't tow your hands and feet and straighten them out, aren't you going to have sequelae?

A memory from a previous life reminded me of a friend in a bicycle accident who had broken a bone in his leg when he was being towed to a hospital. If his lungs have healed, the therapist pours the herb into Pipps' mouth several times with a spoon if he takes pain meds, a little easier to pull his hands and feet.

"Pam better go outside. You have to pull a broken limb to get it back to the straight limb. I took painkillers but it would be a pretty painful treatment"

To the therapist's words, Pam refused to leave the cabin if his son's life was to be saved, because he had no choice but to suffer some pain, and because he was a mother, he was on his side.

"Wonder help me too! I need you to hold on to my father, Peyan, and Pipps' body. My bones are broken, so I think I'm gonna break out of pain. Take care and hold him down."

Peyan and Wonder sweated at the difficulty of suppressing it so as not to hurt the rampant pips, but the therapist pulled his hands and feet straight with his mother.

Pips, who endured Shaw's rough healing, was soothing, but the therapist nodded contentedly, spinning his hands and feet around to see if there were any abnormalities, or letting him do the needle and screaming for pain.

Pam raised a protest at the therapist pointing a needle at his son's hands and feet, but was explained to Shaw that he was checking to see if his hands and feet sensations were back, and he grabbed his hand ha-ha and thanked him.

"No, it just happened."

The therapist later let him sleep and left the cabin saying he would be fine if he fed him.

Shaw also tried to leave if he was running errands, but it is not enough to say anything to Mayor Janim and Peyan, but he is begged to stay at least one night.

Shaw used a lot of healing moves, so I had a feeling he was going to have a little fever. I'd like to sleep under the roof tonight, if possible.

Plus, I wanted to make sure Pipps said I could talk to the dragon if he was comfortable, and I wanted to see the dragon dying.

"So sweet for your words"

Wonder remembers Shaw having a fever after researching his true name with Professor Alex at the University of Paloma, and acknowledges, albeit warily, staying in a strange village.
