Chapter 313 - Let's Notice Something
◎ Resurrect City, Dragon Boat Deck
「Alright, connect here . 」
According to Kazane's instruction, the 3 meter tall Rokuten-kun clanked as it dexterously secured the Thunder Chariot to the deck attachment with a rope . The mass-production type Tatsuyoshi-kuns also assisted .
Kazane and her companions secured the Thunder Chariot to the deck because, just like when they came, they planned to use the carriage as a room while they travelled on the Dragon Boat .
By the way, the mass-production type Tatsuyoshi-kuns were usually transformed into their circular forms and fixed in place on Hippomaru-kun's back, but since the party currently had surplus Dragon Hearts with the ones they obtained on the floating island, the Tatsuyoshi-kuns were given them to use as power sources, and they could now also operate independently .
And as can probably be guessed from the flow of the story so far, Kazane and the others were currently on the deck of the Dragon Boat . The day after the match between Yumika and Baroque, Kazane and her companions once again boarded the Dragon Boat, and they were making their travel preparations .
「Uoo, I'm nervous . 」
「This will be your first time flying on a Dragon Boat? But you've been continuously riding the miniature one until the day before yesterday . 」
「Shut up . The fact that such a huge thing can fly makes it incredible . 」
Lyle and Naoki's relationship had been strained due to the outing with Kazane, but it seemed they currently didn't have a particularly risky atmosphere . Emily was relieved as she watched the two . She had mediated between them . It seemed she didn't really understand the cause, though .
「If the course is the same as when we came, won't we be able to see the floating island?」
Yumika was looking beyond the distant mountains . That's the opposite direction from the floating island . . . Kazane thought about saying, but she decided to refrain from retorting for now . She didn't want to give Yumika's glass heart any unnecessary stimulus .
「It has been about half a month since we left that island, hasn't it? Time passes quickly . 」
「Right?」
Kazane agreed with Tiara's words . They had stayed in Hyvern for about three months . That was longer than Kazane had expected they would .
「And we're quite distant from Husband . 」
Tatsuo regretfully cried Kuwaa after Kazane's words .
Although, since Ao was there, they exchanged emails every day .
「Come to think of it, will you sneak into the Dragon Boat again?」
「Yeah . This ship looks different from the one we took from Minshiana . 」
As a matter of fact, there were two Dragon Boats that travelled between Minshiana and Hyvern . They alternated every day .
「If there's Muscle Clay remaining, I want to collect a little . 」
「There should still be a considerable amount, though . 」
Around enough to make one Stone Minotaur .
If the demand for Accumulators were to increase in the future, it was likely the price would become abnormally high, but it seemed they had no current plans to sell any .
Also, a Stone Minotaur made from Muscle Clay combined with a full set of Black Flame armor became a Black Metal Minos that exhibited fearsome mobility . It was faster and stronger than before . That was similar to zombies in movies nowadays .
「Well, take care not to be exposed . 」
「Roger . 」
Yumika sighed after Kazane's reply . Yumika felt like the number of secrets they had that would likely lead to trouble if they became known was snowballing, and when she thought carefully, that wasn't just a feeling, but a fact . . . that thought made her sigh . Spiritually speaking, she was already in for a penny, in for a pound .
There were many people who were looking at Kazane and the others from afar .
Among them were residents of Resurrect City, people who watched the Grand Tournament, and people who saw the match against Baroque yesterday . They knew Kazane and the others were strong, so nobody picked a fight, but them gathering attention couldn't be helped . Though even if Kazane and the others weren't famous, it was natural that they would stand out with the 3 meter tall black armored giant, black armored giant horse, and black heavily armored carriage .
「We're completely celebrities . . . 」
「They're harsh gazes for us, who don't have the accompanying ability . 」
Emily and Lyle had quickly entered the carriage to escape from those gazes . It was rare, but those two and Naoki did sometimes voice their envy . And in order to get rid of such things, their only choice was to demonstrate power . There was no other way than to build up their strength and demonstrate it .
「Ability? Even if you say that, we should have become considerably stronger, though . 」

Naoki said . Although they heavily relied on their weapons, it was also true that the abilities of the people themselves had grown significantly . They could really feel that from the fact that Lyle could, to a certain extent, stably use『Thunder God Spear』and『Flash』, as well as the fact that Emily could use Dragon Spirit to explosively raise the power of her arrows .
「That's true, but the enemies that appear are too strong . 」
Lyle's words made Naoki and Emily bitterly smile .
After Lyle and the others joined the White Party, there were Earth Dragons at the beginning, then Stone Minotaurs, a Cyclops, a Beared Dragon, highest ranking Devils, Dragon Eaters, the Demon Wolf, Odanobunagas, and a certified Devil King . They were experiences that made it hard to understand why they were still alive .
「Well, as you'd expect, there probably won't only be such dangerous things in the future . 」
Lyle and Emily nodded deeply after Naoki's words . While praying for that to be so .
Then, after time passed, the Dragon Boat began to move, with the wings modeled after dragon wings spreading to prepare for take off from Resurrect City
Basically, this Dragon Boat was a regular flight, and after stopping in a city for a fixed period of time, it went back and forth between Wombard and Resurrect . Everything was automatic, and since nobody could control it, it acted precisely on time, with no waiting for someone who was late .
「Hmm?」
And just before take off, Kazane suddenly looked down at her feet .
「?」
She felt like she had sensed something for a moment . . . while thinking so, Kazane tilted her head .
◎ Skies Over Hyvern Dukedom, Dragon Boat Deck, Evening
「Mmm . . . 」
For quite a while, Kazane had been groaning while looking down at the Dragon Boat deck .
「Toilet?」

「Wronnnng . 」
After Louise's question from the side that lacked any delicacy, Kazane immediately denied it .
『Mother, you mustn't hold it . 』
「That's wrong, I said . There's something strange . 」
While protesting to Tatsuo, Kazane was still looking down at the deck of the Dragon Boat .
「Is there something strange with the Dragon Boat?」
「No, it's not the Dragon Boat . It's like I smell something, but . . . 」
It wasn't clear even to herself, which was why she was groaning .
「Not the ship itself . . . perhaps the cargo hold?」
The free space inside the Dragon Boat, which was basically guarded by the Dragon Boat Administration Bureau, should be under the deck .
「Something that feels subtly black . . . I guess? Even now, I'm wondering if I'm mistaken, though . 」
Louise pondered after Kazane's words .
(There's all sorts of luggage below, so it's possible that she's reacting to something like a magical tool . )
The performance of Kazane's『Dog's Sense of Smell』Skill was extremely high . It weighing on her mind might also be the work of『Intuition』 .
「Mmm, then shall we go investigate a bit?」
「But we can't enter the cargo hold, right?」
After Kazane's words, Louise chuckled . Actually, with Kazane's connections, she could manage that much one way or another, but Louise decided to display her reliable Onee-san side and stood .
「Leave it to this Onee-san . 」
So saying, Louise struck her chest, which started jiggling . As might be expected, when they were that amazing, even Kazane couldn't make a vexed face .
Tiny breasts are status . . . such jests were completely meaningless before that overwhelming destructive power . Kazane could only shudder .

Yumika:「Strong enemies? As you'd expect, dragons don't appear consecutively, right?」
Kazane:「I don't know if dragons appear or not, but it seems rank A and S adventurers sometimes receive nominated requests to hunt powerful monsters that appear in remote places . 」
Yumika:「The highest in our party is rank B, though . If I remember correctly, we have three: master, Louise-san, and Naoki, right?」
Kazane:「Mmm, for normal requests, the guild staff will carefully scrutinize the contents of the request, select the difficulty level, and stick them on the request bulletin board, but a nominated request means someone has designated a party, so there are no particular rank restrictions . 」
Yumika:「Ah, I see . 」
