Chapter 92
(Fernand)What did you say!?
Fernand got up from his chair after he heard the report from his men.
(Fernand)Kaoru is staying in Yuslar Kingdom, you say?
Yes, the report was that the angel and Goddess Celestine had appeared in the neighboring kingdom, Yuslar and saved the kingdoms crisis. It was also said that the angel had opened an apothecary for some time in the royal capital of Yuslar Kingdom.
(Fernand)Thats Kaoru! I dont care whether if its Alpha or Beta. In any case, contact them and bring her back to our kingdom. Prepare to depart at once!
Brancott Kingdoms Crown Prince, Fernand was now convinced that Alpha Kaoru Nagase is the Kaoru who was the waitress from the diner.
(There are two of her, huh..)
Yes, the war with the Arigo empire and the peace conference. Additionally, the various episodes from these four years were more than enough to convince him. This time, it will be too good to be true if he happened to accidentally meet her if she pass by Brancott Kingdom again and stop by the diner where she used to work in.
(I will absolutely bring her back)
Yes, from the look of his face, Fernand was already determined. However, Fabios expression when he saw it was not sweet.
If Kaoru was his kingdoms people.
And if she was a normal person.
If that was the case, the Crown Prince, Fernands intention, even if its his own selfishness, and even if its for an instant, it can be pushed to a certain extent.
However, after she was left behind in another country, she was given a power beyond humanity and was entrusted with Call me if there is something wrong, I will do it properly by the Goddess, Celestine.
Is there any right for them to force Kaoru to compel unto only one kingdom which is no more than just a kingdom that the humans divided themselves as they pleased?
(TL Note: Damn, this sentence was hard)
It probably wont work well.
However, no matter how persuasive it is, Fernand would not give up.
It was a long relationship, and he already knew that much. Furthermore, the chance of success is not zero.
Even if its a thousandth or ten-thousandth, it is by no means zero .
A few days along the main road after our fish feast at the beach.
We have finally arrived in a moderately structured town.
A town that is facing the sea. Although it has a small port, it does not seem to be a shipping town.
Furthermore, the ship in this world has not yet developed for shipping and large-scale fishing. So far, only the Arigo Empire has decent open-sea vessels in service.
However, if the offshore sailing ships which are currently being built in various kingdoms are completed one after another, shipping business will grow quickly and the possibility of developing a port city will be high.
For the time being, it seems that this kingdom is building a new sailing ship with all its might. As soon as I was thinking to check it, the ship was already at the port. The ship itself is relatively small from my point-of-view. Still, from the perspective of people here, it falls into the category of large ships.
The ships bow is equipped with a sinister-looking figure head at the front which I have seen it somewhere before
Yes, it was Arigo Empires new open-sea sailing ship.
Its not a great one yet, but its still a new revolutionary ship that can traverse in the open seas while carrying personnel and supplies. The ship also has been distinguished from small conventional boats.
Yup, Im the one who developed it!
No, its true, you know. Supplying potion with sailboat model containers, offering improvement plans for the compass, and other various contributions.
when I was asked what the cannons on the model were for, I somehow successfully deceived them. At present, they are used as a door for sunlight and air replacement. In the meantime, someone might notice the real function, and will use it as bows, javelins, or even ballistas. Its their own selfishness so I wont know it for sure.
Arigo Empires ship once had been at a port on the north side of Balmore Kingdom and they allowed everyone to see the inside of the ship itself. It looks like this ship is almost the same as that time, so I dont need to have a look for now. I dont want to be the one who sees the inside and makes a noise about it. Hence, I would rather see the construction state of this kingdoms first large sailing ship, but lets keep that away from the architects for now.
Well, even if I imagined it like that, this kingdoms sailing ship is not even being fitted-out yet. Same goes for the hulls completion, it seems.
Nonetheless, even if they are suddenly being ordered to build it by the higher-ups, they still need the budgets, concessions, facilities, engineers, and various other things. Thus, many years will go by before the project even starts. In addition to that, various obstacles will continue to rise thereafter so it will be unreasonable.
Its the same with Balmore Kingdom and Asheed Kingdom. Its only natural that the rest of the world will be even later, as the prototype for small sailing ship is finally completed and the larger ship is still under construction.
The Arigo Empire, which already has several large sailing vessels in service, is the one that is abnormal, yup.
Well, there will be no kingdom that can compete with a sly nation that is fully committed to a project with all their power and putting the nations fate on it.
Alright, lets pass this town as it is.
(???)Kaoru-sama!
Gyaaaaaa!!!
(Kaoru)Y-you got the wrong person..
(???)Nope, with that expression, there is no doubt about it!
Shut up!
When I look closely, I certainly remembered him. He is one of Arigo Empires engineers whom I have discussed various things with before.
How to use horizontal and longitudinal sails, lift and drag power, maintenance of bulging-shape sails, air flow separation system, movie, novel manga, and such with no materials except the model. We had had heated discussions with me who is only an ordinary person that has such knowledge and the technical personnel who has a strange mind. Those were the days of trial and error while using a small boat at the lake.
If I could say, It was fun.
I felt like an amateur and an ordinary person who had become a cutting-edge engineer in research and development. Together with top class engineers in this world, I felt like their companion.
Those days of meetings and experiments that stole the eyes of Balmore Kingdoms engineers It was really fun
As I was immersed in the recollections, the engineer got irritated.
(Engineer)If you really dont want to admit it, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve!
Like that, he inhales a big breath..
(Engineer)Ooohh!! The Goddess friend, Kao-
(Kaoru)Quit it!!
I put a shot in his stomach to let him shut up.
He crumbled down and groaned while holding his stomach, but I dont care.
You reap what you sow!
(Engineer)T-that was cruel..
The engineer who has finally been resurrected argued and seems to gave up, but since he had done the same thing that looked like a threat, he did not apologize.
(Kaoru)Because you were trying to shout out loudly, even though Im travelling incognito right now!
(Engineer)Im sorry
The people from Arigo Empire should have known that they must not make me angry. Even though, he did a bad thing, he didnt want to run away and reflected on it. It cant be helped, I will forgive him.
(Kaoru)Well, what is it for?
(Engineer)No, theres nothing, if you meet Kaoru-sama in a place like this, of course you will be determined to call out to her! Well.., while we are at it, I would like you to see our proud ship, and if you could give me some feedback or advice, then..
That kind of thinking is somewhat understandable
well, if its only that it should be okay.
As I thought so, I took everyone to Arigo Empires sailing ship.
Yeah, as expected, because it doesnt have any cannons, its more like an army transport ship rather than a warship. As for the strength, the marine corps and also the sailors at the time of emergency will carry swords to cut through.
Instead of using it for combat, the ship will probably be a transport for goods, trades, or personnel to the west island and such. Therefore, the one who operates the ship will likely be the military thus it will be a troops transport ship. Its probably the correct choice.
The people who made the ship in a short period of time with the model which there are no basic technology in it as the reference have surely worked hard. It seems that the professionals did the proper strength calculation as there are fewer water leaks than I thought, the sails are also more elaborate and advanced than what I had discussed that time
Yup, they have worked hard.
I was the one who raised these guys!
(Roland)Kaoru, this figure head
Yup, lets go home!
What are you guys doing? Its time to go! Were going to the next town, you know!
Damn it!!!
