Part 2
“Yowaningen, Kecha is our companion, so stop making fun of Kecha, desu!” (Kruz)
“Un, un, that’s right…… I wasn’t making fun of her though.” (Cry)
However, there are really strange things in this world.
Tilting my head, I held out the 『Round World』 I was holding to Kruz. So heavy.
“Kruz, I will lend you this staff for the duration of the escort.” (Cry)
“Aaah……?” (Kruz)
“You looked like you wanted to use it, no? Don’t lose it, okay.” (Cry)
“!? ??? Yowaningen, are you planning to do this escort without weapons, desu!” (Cry)
Kruz opened her eyes, but she was *chirachira* glancing at the 『Round World』 which has a somewhat mysterious atmosphere.
I *tonton* tapped my head with my finger while trying to look badass.
“It is alright, my weapon…… Is this, you know. Rather the staff is in the way. It was due to some unavoidable circumstances that I had to bring the staff.” (Cry)
It is heavy, so please hold on to it……
Kruz received the Round World while still puzzled. Even though it was quite heavy, Kruz, who held the staff in her hand, didn’t say anything. She may have slender limbs, but she still has more strength in her arms than I do. I’m so sad.
“H-Hmpf…… even though we are Clan Members, as a Hunter, I can’t believe you would leave your weapons to someone else, but…… If you insist, I will keep it, desu.” (Kruz)
“Un, un, I’m counting on you. Ah, right. This staff is quite a powerful Relic, so don’t try it on the ship.” (Cry)
“I know, desu.” (Kruz)
While *niconico* smiling, I *chirari* glanced at Kechakchakka.
Kechakchakka’s word…… Weren’t interpreted at all. Apparently, she was saying 『Ukekekeke』 of her own volition.
The power of 『Round World』 is absolute. This Relic does not translate words with logic but embodies the concept of 『Communication』. Just as the Imperial Capital’s treasure, the 『True Tears (Tears of the Truth)』――Embodies the very concepts of the 『Truth』.
Hunters are really full of weirdos.

The airship was occasionally bumpy, but it was generally comfortable. Some part of it might be thanks to the 『Comfortable Vacation』 I was wearing, but it is also probably mostly due to Franz-san’s efforts.
It seems that Franz-san has spent the last three days making sure that everything was fully prepared. He thoroughly checked the passengers, and rechecked the airship’s equipment, and carved Magic to make sure there were no flaws. You can see how much of a burden this was by looking at Franz-san’s slightly gaunt appearance.
“Not even a mouse can get in. How’s that 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》, do you still think that the ship will fall!?” (Franz)
“I am sure it will be okay, but when it falls, it will fall, you know…… Where is the emergency exit already?” (Cry)
“Tsk………… Damn, outside on the left! I gave you a map of the ship! Are you being sarcastic!?” (Franz)
Aaah right, there was something like this. However, Franz-san is a little too tense. Being tense won’t help when there is nothing you can do about it, so it is not good to overthink things, you know.
I pulled out a folded map from my pocket, opened it and I said.
“But well, don’t worry, fall damage will be covered by Barrier Rings. I know from first-hand experience.” (Cry)
“Tsk…… D-Don’t play with me, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》!” (Franz)
I don’t know what was bothering him, but Franz-san slammed the table hard and jostled me as I involuntarily took a step back.
Due to the impact, The teacup clattered and rolled. Franz-san stuck his finger in the air and said stoutly.
“Bastard, your role is to make sure that doesn’t happen! 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》, why do you always keep your relaxed attitude! Do the escort with all your strength!” (Franz)
“Eh… T-That’s probably because…… Of the difference in our experience.” (Cry)
“W-whatt!?” (Franz)
I have been through a lot in my life. It was my first time escorting the Emperor, but it was not the first time I was attacked by a large number of Dragons, and it was not the first time I was yelled at like this. It was also not the first time I have fallen from the sky. I have been in worse situations.
After all the misfortunes I had encountered, I won’t show any openings and I am already ready to give up.
Moreover, if it is only handling Barrier Rings then I am the best in the world. Well, even if I say handling them, I am just putting them on standby mode though……
“Well, we will figure it out.” (Cry)
“This ship is ironclad! There is also a curse to avoid Monsters, so leaving aside attacks from the ground, there is no need to worry about being attacked in the sky!” (Franz)
Franz’s voice sounded as if he was trying to convince himself.
At that moment, Franz-san’s subordinate came in from outside the cabin with fast movements.
“”Commander Franz (Franz-Dancho)”, we have received contact from the ground that there are signs of a storm――” (Knight)
“………… Damn it, it is because you delayed our departure by three days! All hands, be careful. This ship will not fall due to rain or wind. Even if lightning strikes!” (Franz)
Franz *iraira* glared at me in annoyance. However, storms are an integral part of a journey. It was there the other day on our vacation too.
I frowned, but then remembered what I had been through and, made a small smile on my face.
“I hope it will end with just a storm, though.”
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
Haha Franz and Cry are raising so many flags for the ship to crash and for the storm to not just be a simple storm!
So if anything happens, everyone will be “Omg, you knew about this!” XD
Tchao à plus!
