Chapter 446
Rerensen readily nodded her head to mean that it was okay at the call of the attendant who had come to report to her.
“Yes, tell me.”
“This is a call from the tribal chief. It is said that the huge ship they rode on set sail.”
“Yes, I guess.”
It was said to be an exploration ship sent from the kingdom of Ernesia.
We decided to strengthen our friendship, but we can\'t be careless.
There is little information about their continent.
I\'m not naive enough to trust anything you say in this situation.
Rirensen pretended to be interacting with Celtisten, and behind the scenes, he told his aides and the chiefs of each tribe to report all the movements of the crew members on the ship.
He instructed them to respond if they did anything suspicious.
Fortunately, it ended in misfortune.
“Fortunately, you left without incident.”
Really, they were only for exchange.
I was a little relieved about that.
‘When I first saw the iron wire, I was horrified at heart...
The boat used here was just about to build a wooden boat in earnest.
I could imagine what kind of shock the iron wire would have had on the people of this place.
Of course, she is not without knowledge of iron wires.
However, there was no condition to build iron wires here.
In such a yard, I would have thought that people claiming to be an expedition would suddenly come down on huge iron wires.
“At first, I was surprised to think it was their nemesis, what is it?”
“They… you mean the wicked ones who visited two years ago.”
“okay??????
Rerensen frowned.
I still can\'t forget what happened back then.
Is it only her?
Her entourage and the people around her still recall the incident and whisper, “The Devil...”.
It was an incident that the expedition did not even talk about.
No, an incident in which the truth was not properly informed to the expedition team and the public.
The kingdom where Rerensen was staying had to allow an attack by an unexpected intruder.
He, who casually subdued even the best warriors she had personally trained as if they were lighter than feathers, forced her to cooperate without hesitation.
The one who revealed his name as ‘Heriel\'.
A monstrous human who has been through a hundred reincarnations.
“I thought that even monsters sometimes take human form. Even now, when I think about it, my arms still tremble.”
“Yeah… that’s right. I agree.”
The attendant who served her seemed to think of him as a demon or a monster.
After all, he showed incredible strength for a human being.
Rirensen pretended that he had no idea about his identity.
It\'s a lie, of course.
‘Reincarnated person... A monster with an overwhelmingly different digit of experience
. There is enough age to think about it.
However, the fundamentals of the monster itself were different.
At that time, she was confident that she was enough to protect herself, but she couldn\'t even dare to use her hands
. Yes?”
“…How about that?”
“yes?”
She smiled bitterly.
At that time, another reincarnated person intervened in the confrontation.
He was also quite talented.
I don\'t know the circumstances, but it seems that he was hostile to Harial and was pursuing him.
She said she got out of the crisis thanks to him, but in reality, Harial backed down, thinking that she wouldn\'t cooperate if she made more of a mess.
If he hadn\'t backed down at that time, this country would have perished as a result of the two fighting to the death.
From her point of view, both were nuisance.
Seriously, I am so thankful that both of them turned off on their own.
In the end, the reincarnated person who intervened disappeared without saying anything, but looking at the clothes he was wearing at that time, he was convinced that he was from the East.
And an expedition from the kingdom of Ernesia.
Seeing the wire they rode on, she was convinced.
You\'re a reincarnated person again!
And this time, a person with enough knowledge and influence to dry the iron wire.
And a person who can afford to spend this amount of money and just want a kola tree fruit.
‘Maybe it\'s an opportunity.\'
I don\'t know who it is, but she decided to try to contact him once.
Whether or not to agree to cooperate with Harial, to be honest, she was reluctant to accept his offer.
Even the purpose is nonsense in her eyes.
However, I don\'t dare to face the monster alone.
If the reincarnated person you contact later doesn\'t like it, you should either change your stance right away or give up.
She likes her life now.
That\'s why there was a level of regret that I wanted to keep at least.
“By the way. The plant the leader of the expedition took from that tribe.... He asked me to tell you what it is for?”
“Oh that? Don\'t worry. Because it\'s nothing.”
At the attendant who was worrying for nothing, she smiled broadly as if it was nothing special.
“Just say, ‘At best, I want a fancy item.\'”
The expedition leader seemed to be misunderstanding something about the plant.
If the misunderstanding was the intention of the reincarnated person, there was no reason to interfere, so I didn\'t bother explaining it.
‘I really can\'t drink Coke in a place like this. Even in this situation, I don\'t feel free.\'
It might be a good opportunity.
In a world like this, you can afford to want a Coke.
It wouldn\'t be bad to try to communicate once in a while.
In addition, I don\'t know how much he grasps the situation now, but there is information that needs to be conveyed.
It was something she found out by accident.
part of that information.
“…Now what will happen.”
She looked up at the sky and complained.
At least this life seems to be tightly twisted.
That\'s all I\'m sure of.
‘What on earth is Allel-sama going to use this plant for?\'
Celtisten looked over the seedlings she had received through her cooperation and couldn\'t take her eyes off her.
From what I\'ve heard, the tribe that saved it didn\'t seem to know what it was for.
At least it was clear that they were not using this plant for any purpose.
‘It\'s what he does. It must have a different meaning.\'
First of all, he ordered that he pay special attention to the seedlings so that they would not die, and then Celtisten took his eyes off the plant... the Kola tree seedling.
It is important to run his errands, but the most important thing is to return home safely.
We have established a clear route, and since the purpose is to return to the port, not search, it will take the shortest route, so it will not take as much time as it did when departing.
‘I\'ll have to post a request to ask for the next schedule right after I return.\'
There are still places that have not been investigated yet.
And once the work on the southern continent is finished, I\'ll have to check the other continents as well.
If you experience this time, you will be able to go farther on your next voyage.
It\'s obvious, but right now it\'s impossible.
Even if the sailors can\'t do it, 1? You should take a break for about 2 years.
The ship needs to be inspected and improved.
But he had already begun to draft some of his next plans.
Anyway, if there are no big variables on the way back, there is plenty of time to think about this.
That was the time.
“Mr. Celtisten.”
A voice came from the communication port on his desk.
He was the captain in charge of the navigation of the expedition ship.
“What is it?”
Basically, he handled the crew and left the voyage to him.
Even though Celtisten learned the minimum knowledge, he still couldn\'t follow the captain in practice.
That\'s why it\'s not so often that he first contacts you suddenly like this.
“...I found something a little embarrassing.”
“hmm?”
The captain\'s tone was a little strange.
No embarrassing thing, found it?
“Please come out to the deck first. Let me ask your intentions.”
At the captain\'s request, Celtisten left the room and headed for the deck.
Then, a number of sailors and the captain came out first.
“What is it?”
“Actually… well, look over there first.”
Saying that, Celtisten groaned as he saw the direction he was pointing at with the telescopic magic tool he had handed over.
“???? dead body?”
where the captain points.
An object presumed to be a person is floating on the open sea like a wooden board.
“Are you a drifter?”
It wasn\'t anything out of the ordinary.
Unfortunately, accidents at sea are not uncommon.
But there\'s no reason to call him out on something like this.
The captain immediately revealed the reason for calling Celtisten.
“It seems to be alive.”
“that!”
Startled, he reflexively exclaimed.
“Then shouldn’t we go get it right away!”
“I thought you would say that…
Well, I can report after the fact, but isn’t this side better?”
“Right.”
Now I understand your intention.
Even if you find a drifter, you cannot arbitrarily rescue him and put him on board.
It is only the final officer, Professor Celtisten, who approves the roster to ride here.
“Of course you have to save it. Hurry up and send someone.”
“I already told you to prepare.”
I was already sure of the answer, but I dared to confirm it with him just in case.
“However…
” “So you\'re saying it could be a monster? Well... they say there are monsters in the desert that attack the upper ranks using drifters.”
“Are you going to be okay though?”
“Pay attention. If there is even the slightest suspicion... give up.”
Rather than benevolence, the sailors on this side have priority.
It just cut off.
With Celtisten and the captain\'s permission, the crew approached the drifter in a small boat.
For now, I approached after being somewhat certain that it was not a monster.
However, the sailors soon noticed something odd and had to stop their rowing arms in embarrassment.
For a simple drifter, his floating complexion was strangely calm.
Isn\'t it just lying on the plank casually as if enjoying a dip in the shallow sea in front of the villa?
And finally he turned his gaze to the sailors.
Strangely enough for a simple drifter, he is calm and intelligent.
“Let me ask you a question. Are you the crew of that big ship?”
“…That’s right.”
Why are they asking these questions?
In the first place, there are many things I want to ask about the sailors.
“Are you any better than that? Apparently, he seems to have drifted...
It must have been true that he drifted openly, but his strange tranquility put the sailor at a loss for words.
“....hmm? Drift.... Maybe. It\'s a boat that I borrowed for a long time, so I didn\'t think I would be able to endure that much... It\'s really amazing. Wouldn\'t it be better to just cross it barefoot?”
Is that so?”
I think it must have gone a little out of my mind due to drifting.
First of all, there are orders and morals as a sailor.
The sailor invited the man to board their ship.
