94. Voyage. (2)

94. Sail. (2)

[ All magic must pay a corresponding price. From that point of view, magic should be called ‘transaction’, not ‘miracle’.

There is no magic that lasts indefinitely without cost. The higher the level of magic, the heavier the cost, and in most cases it can be solved by devoting magical power, but there are exceptions.

Exceptions are not a standardizable concept, so they are called exceptions. Usually, the closer the level of magic is to the ‘source’, the more often it occurs.

Magic power basically belongs to the body, so it can be regenerated even if consumed, but cannot be regenerated if the body is lost. That’s why–]

Chin.

Reading complicated magic books was originally one of Lucia’s hobbies.

Lucia let out a sigh as she closed the book, unable to read a single word.

“Hey. No matter how many times I think about it, there are things I just can’t understand.”

Mystic Pirate’s ship.

As befits a ship sailing on rough seas, the ship was very wide and large.

And the top of that anchor.

One person was standing on a high level where quite a few people would faint just from that height.

A woman sitting cross-legged on a precarious railing, as if fear doesn’t exist.

She was obviously a complete outsider to this ship. She is a figure who can be said to be neither a sailor nor a passenger yet.

But she had no one to point out to her what she was.

That must have been natural.

It is natural for sailors who sail the sea to have courage and courage.

Even among them, there were few people who had the guts to dare to talk to the terrifying magician who could move an entire ship on a national level.

That’s why Lucia muttered to herself.

It is so small that it cannot be heard by those under the anchor.

A mage who ‘shares the same body’ with Lucia couldn’t help but hear the words to herself.

“Why aren’t you telling Cale? You said you returned? You or him too?”

-… ….

Even though it was clear that I would hear it. She got no answer.

No, in this case it should be said that she answered with silence.

Come to think of it, Kale was unique from the beginning.

The first question he asked himself. It was a question of whether the phenomenon of ‘regression’ could be achieved with magic.

At the time, he didn’t understand why he asked such a question. He was convinced when he heard Lu’s story from the future.

It is clear that Kayle is a regressor who has returned from the future.

All circumstances pointed to the truth of the hypothesis of Cale’s return.

I don’t know how that was possible.

Even if it’s something you’ve taken for granted until now.

It’s a very obvious thing and it’s a rule, so even if you’ve never even doubted it.

As long as the circumstances are so clear, there is no reason not to look at the truth.

And it was Lu who speculated that Cale had returned in the first place.

That’s why I was more suspicious.

He is so devoted that he usually gives up everything for kale, including liver and gallbladder.

After he found out that the ‘Kale’ Lu knew was correct, he became overly passive.

Shouldn’t I be more enthusiastic?

If you’re like me, I’m sure.

Clearly, the returned Cale and the non-returned Cale are the same person.

Unlike Cale who didn’t return, Cale who returned will share the same memories as Lou from the future.

And even if you reveal the truth you’ve been hiding from Cale, you won’t get a negative reaction back.

Although she never revealed to Cale that the ‘Lou’ that had returned to her body was coexisting.

She wasn’t hiding it to trick him. Because Cale wasn’t someone who couldn’t understand that.

On the contrary, I would be surprised and very welcome.

And Lu would know better than Cale.

Perhaps unlike the future he heard about at a glance, he doesn’t have a lover now…….

It was also a story that might sound cowardly and an unprecedented opportunity to dig into his heart.

Luna herself isn’t the type to let go of such an opportunity. Although she is, of course, since she is the same person in the first place.

But even so, it was annoying beyond comprehension that she acted so frustrated. Lucia muttered to Lou, who responded with her silence.

“Lu. If you don’t answer this, I’m going to tell Cale right now.”

Having said that, let’s shake her legs as if Lucia would fall off the anchor at any moment.

Lou, who had been keeping her mouth shut as if it had been sealed, opened her mouth.

-I want Cale to be happy.

“…… What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

– No more kale getting hurt. She doesn’t die Even if you lose someone…… I hope she doesn’t even bother with it. She came back to the past just for that.

Just for that, he returned to the past.

She is the savior of mankind. Preventing disaster was, therefore, only secondary.

“So what kind of nonsense is that? What does that have to do with this?”

On the contrary, wouldn’t kale be safer if I revealed that?

Because you know that there is a power called ‘Lu’ from the future.

Recently, I don’t intervene unless there’s something special going on.

She is a magician of the 10th circle who has gone back in time. When it comes to her competence, she is at a level that cannot even be compared to Lucia herself.

And that was something that Lu himself would know better than she did.

How unreasonable your current behavior is.

No one can understand everything about others.

However, she had to be able to understand Lu’s behavior on her own. Because she was none other than Lou.

Just Lu was doing something he himself would not understand.

She couldn’t figure out why.

She wanted to ask more questions.

She heard her voice behind her, which forced Lucia to put it aside and get down from the anchor.

“Everybody get ready! I will set sail——!”

Because the voice announcing the start of the voyage resonated there.

* * *

Just a few seconds to reach Silver Harbor, the port of the Empire.

A distance that would take two weeks round trip and a week to arrive was covered in seconds.

It was the result of Lucia’s large-scale teleportation.

As an unknown ship suddenly appeared in the harbor, there was considerable commotion on the Silver Harbor side as well.

I wouldn’t know if it was a small ferry. Mystic Pirate’s ship was a ship, and a shield to protect the crew from the monsters of the sea.

Because it was so huge and threatening.

It was a situation that could lead to a big problem if it went wrong, resulting in a diplomatic dispute or fight.

A pain in the ass to solve without an armed conflict.

But the mistake didn’t happen. Well, because I mediated well in the middle.

It was actually laughable that he intervened.

Just because I revealed my identity, the conflict has easily subsided.

Of course. Reinhardt’s name, Cale, is by no means an easy name.

Perhaps Lucia also calculated and teleported to that point.

“The departure preparations are complete. I was a bit embarrassed, but…… Triumph’s recovery is over.”

“Ah, good job Mr. Raneia.”

Getting to the port of the Empire was easy with Lucia’s teleport.

In that case, wouldn’t it be easy to go back by teleporting? I could ask like that.

In the first place, even for Lucia, teleporting a ship was not an easy task.

I didn’t show it, but it didn’t mean that there was no loss of mana.

Even if there is enough magic left to move the ship once more. There was no reason to use teleport.

What Mystic Pirate has to do is not simply deliver Triumph, but retrieve it.

So it was Mystic Pirate, not someone else, who had to bring it to the duchy.

“Kale-sama, too, will you board our ship when you return to the Duchy of Briseyton?”

“Yes, what. Whether it’s a monster or something, it will help.”

Lucia is a magic tower wizard.

If Triumph is retrieved through her hands, she could dismiss it as the ball of the magic tower in the magic tower.

I couldn’t help not being able to rely on Lucia’s teleport to avoid such a troublesome situation.

And the mystic pirates weren’t so unreliable that they had to rely on it in the first place.

They are the one and only mercenaries of the sea.

The sea was the place where even the ‘Mercenary King’, who had absolute influence among mercenaries, could not expand his territory even with the Hestia mercenaries.

And the vice-captain of the Mystic Pirates is the Siren.

As far as the sea is concerned, finding a group safer than these would be next to impossible.

…… To be honest, retrieving Triumph is retrieving it, and it doesn’t matter if we return to Lucia’s teleport.

Here was the reason for not doing so.

“Oh, . . …. Oh.”

Sirens are a tribe that bewitches people with their songs.

From noble mtl dot com

A girl with white hair, who was wary of believing in superstitions that no one would believe, but was looking at the giant ship for the first time as if she was curious about each one.

That little silver wolf was roaming around the neighborhood, probably out of curiosity.

If you don’t give me a chance to ride a boat, it’s obvious that I’ll walk around the whole day looking down, even if I don’t show it.

In that case, it would be better to accompany you on the voyage.

Raneia is having a conversation with her subordinate, as if everything was ready before long.

Then she cried out in a loud voice.

“Everybody get ready! I will set sail——!”

Perhaps it was because the boat was floating on the sea, and a sudden wind blew across my cheek.

Away from the cool sea breeze.

For some reason, the hot, sticky, humid wind brushed my ears.

Chack!

The anchor is lowered in time with the wind.

As the magic activates, the ship starts moving forward.

The moment of departure.

A nasty, unpleasant wind brushing against the skin enveloped the harbor away from the ship.

I didn’t hear someone muttering there.

No one on board heard it.

It was as insignificant and small as the faint wind that shakes blades of grass.

But it was clearly hovering there.

An unpleasant wind that soon took shape——the “Magic” That originated from it uttered.

[Found it.]
