The next morning, when we got up quite early, we got dressed and came to the Alberto workshop long before the shop opened.
We discussed the route and means of transportation to be passed within yesterday, and Maki-chan's travel plans were also slightly arranged.
Most of the things we have will work out, but we had to make sure we had the right shoes for ourselves. Maki was wearing something that was already worn out and seemed to be unable to withstand the long journey, so I made a new one.
Every time, I shrunk my body again and apologized, so I encouraged you to pay for my career. Yeah, that's right. I got through it with my apologies.
"Good morning!" I'm sorry about yesterday. "
"Come on! I was expecting you." but from now on, if I fall..... "
"Yes! Drag me!" You can kick anything!! "
"No, don't be serious?" Seriously, I wouldn't do that, would I? We're like ghost animals, aren't we.... "
Set-kun's eyes were so sparkling that he thought he could really be kicked. Richt was a fool.
Surely, Set-san is not the type to take jokes as jokes. Too honest!
"Set, this is Maki." I'm going to study the demon continent with you, mate. "
Ronnie introduced Maki-chan to Set-kun. That's right. I had to go to the Demon Continent with you. It would be nice if you could get along a little, even if your fields of study are different.
"Friends...? Wow, wow, uh, nice to meet you! It's called set."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Maki."
The greeting between the two of them is unexpected. Nervousness is coming through here.
Set is older, isn't he? I wish I could talk to you more casually. "
Asuka is easy-going regardless of age.
"Ehehe, because I think we'll get along better that way."
Looking at Set-kun and Maki-chan, Asuka sandwiched her mouth as she clasped her hands behind her head.
Licht is right, Asuka can speak regardless of age or gender, but there are fewer types of people like that, right? People like Asuka were often seen on the demon continent.
"You don't have to rush. Slowly, let's get to know each other."
Whatever happens, there is a pace at which you can reduce your distance from people. It would be compatible.
Both of them replied with a little relief, so I breathed in relief.
From now on, everything you see is going to the continent for the first time, so it's better to be less stressed. That's why we want to take care of our surroundings as much as possible.
So you left town, and you're ready to move.
Greet the gatekeepers and walk the streets in minutes. Licht cut out the streets where they were getting sparse. Maki is tilting her neck when she hears the words.
"? Why don't you just walk like this...?"
Oh, I see. Maki-chan was already asleep when we were talking about moving. I haven't explained it to Seto yet. It looks like the two of you are asking a question mark.
I'm sure you'll be surprised. I hope you're not too surprised to lose your mind.
"Then there's no time to waste." We'll go to the next city with all our might! "
"Huh.... eh!? Are you going to run?!"
Well. Oh, Set and Maki won't run?
Richt began to give a brief explanation to Set-kun, who was surprised.
Yes, it is the same as when we arrived in this city. It's a primitive movement that uses magic to raise power while running.
If there were more people, we would think of a vehicle, but because it was just the two of us, we came to the conclusion that Ronnie and Asuka carried it on their backs.
We don't have any strangers among us. I couldn't get riding or towing the luggage carrier by becoming a beast, so I couldn't help it. There was also a plan to fly in the air, but I was afraid it would scare me.
Besides, no matter how much magic power you have, you can't spend half as much. There are limitations, even if there are many. It takes time to heal on this continent, so if you use it, it will take time to heal. It's not good to rely too much on medicine.
"It's going to be very fast, but I'll protect it with magic so it won't affect you." Well, I mean, don't worry, it's safe. "
Huh?
That's right, we won't drop it either.
Huh? Huh?
"Yeah. It's okay. I'll take care of it."
When I called out while putting Maki-chan on Ronnie's back, Asuka smiled as she carried Set-kun. Of course, Ronnie is also a reliable speaker. It looks like the two of them don't know what they're carrying.
But I made sure I had the explanation I needed. I'm not familiar with magic, so I just don't understand it. You may not know until you experience all of this.
However, I may lose consciousness due to fear, so I am taking measures to increase the speed gradually. I had no tough body, magic power immunity, or familiarity with magic like those who lived on the demonic continent. You have to be more courteous than usual.
The division of magic is the same as before, Meg.
Ryuuu!
At first glance, it is as if it were a hundred stories. We're headed to the Demon Continent, so let them get used to it! At Richt's direction, I cast magic on everyone.
This time, in addition to the aids, I also applied protective magic to Seto-kun and Maki-chan. Magic power consumption is not that intense at this level. Maybe.
I mean, there's too much magic power, and I can't even remember too much magic power. That's why my father used a lot of sorcery.
Fuck, but! I'm trying to figure out what I can because I'm a big enemy! Unlike my father, I'm good at fine manipulation! It's true!
N-no, did you just use magic?
When Set-kun asked, he affirmed that Set-kun and Maki-kun were looking at each other with a strange face.
"I don't feel like something has changed, but..."
"Without magic power, I can't even sense it." It's well protected. It's okay! "
"Oh, is that so?" It's strange... "
When Asuka answered Maki-chan's question brightly, she still didn't understand because she didn't really feel it.
"If you actually run out, I think you'll experience it even if you don't like it." Even though it's so fast, I don't feel any pressure, and I can't even hit the pebbles that flew over it. "
Licht is right, if you actually run out, you'll know what you don't want. So! We need to get to Licht first and get to the next city!
"Ahh, it was fun!"
"Well, that's good."
Moving for about 30 minutes. As the small town approached, I pulled the two of them off my back, and I was able to hear their different feelings.
Maki-chan was pleasantly shouting along the way and was cute.
"Wow, that was amazing...!" I-I was scared, though. "
"I said I would never drop it." I'm even more surprised because I can feel it. "
I-I 'm sorry!
"No, I'm fine." It's not like that. Are you still not used to it, Set? If you're scared, I'll rethink how to get around. "
On the other hand, it seems like Seto was scared. I can't help it, can I? I don't think I had that much speed, but if I lived on this continent, it would be faster than I would have experienced.
Asuka is right, it's a policy that doesn't force you, so if it's tight, you need to think it over.
But Set-kun shook his head to the side and denied it with a smile.
"I'm sure I was scared, but I'm getting used to it, so I'm fine!"
"Um, really? You can't just push yourself." We're not in a hurry. "
“It's true! Asuka talked a lot along the way, and the last one enjoyed the view!”
Apparently, it's not a lie. Then we should continue with this mode of transport.
But, Asuka was very attentive and talked to Set-kun. Exactly.
"Really? That's good." But! If you have any anxiety or difficulty not only getting around, just tell me right away! I won't stand for it! Promise! "
"I see, I get it!" "Asuka-san is kind..." I want to make Asuka-san's statue someday. "
"Oh, really!? That might be a pleasure!" I want you to decorate it next to Meg's statue! "
A statue of Asuka. It's going to be pretty beautiful! Besides, there is a romance that is made by the disciple of the man who made my statue. I would have been more honest if I hadn't been a model... "
No, let's not think about it forever. The statue was really nicely finished!
"I don't have that kind of skill yet...!" Besides, I haven't made any works yet with stones...! "
"That's easy." You can train on the Demon Continent and build it one day! "
Asuka replied positively everywhere to Set-kun, who waved his hands. Without doubting that he would improve, Set-kun twitched and dyed his cheeks red.
"Um, well, to the goal! Let me make it my goal!”
"Huh? Yeah. You've been talking about that all along, haven't you? I'll be waiting for you! Even if Set becomes a grandpa, I'll still be waiting."
Yes! I promise!
Surprisingly, maybe the goal is to come out of a conversation that hasn't happened before. At least now, Seto had a clear goal.
From the desire to create a work like a master to the clear goal of creating an Asuka stone statue. Looks like I quickly got a specific goal, and I'm happy.
"I wonder if I can achieve my goal someday..."
It was Maki-chan who muttered. Oh, I guess it was Maki-chan's stimulus under the influence.
"I hope I can." Let's take our time looking for it. "
"Slowly... yes! From now on, it's all right."
But don't be impatient. I'm sure of it because I'm often anxious to say it. It's pathetic!
But somehow, Maki-chan and I feel that the types are similar. I feel anxious to avoid it or to leave it in the surroundings.
Maybe you're the type who saves up to do something about it alone? None, but it's non-existent. When I crossed the demon continent properly, I had to tell them that I would take over.
Well, I'm not really worried because the Ortus people will notice and follow me!
It's exciting. There's only two scouts left, but I'm glad to see that they're growing by the minute. Of course, I know it's not all going to work out.
Keep up the good work and have a nice encounter in another city!
