I ate dinner and then logged in. Ruin and his friends were there, so I asked them a few questions.

Apparently, the treasure hunters didn't have many points because there was no danger. Although the treasure in the forest is a high point, the risk of being attacked by monsters makes it quite difficult to find it.

Even so, he'll go get the treasure chest as soon as he finds it. There's a flocky dragon and a barbayaga in that forest... I gave him some information and wished him well.

Still, there are items other than points found in the treasure chest. That's the items called Finist's Feather, the Orb of Calm, and the Whistle of Signals.

The orb of calmness is said to make the state of the sea calm. The signal whistle is said to be a whistle that tells your allies where you are in the thick fog. Ruin and the others seem to think that the next event will almost certainly be a ship-based event at sea.

In case you're wondering, Miu Miu is out of frustration. He was angry at being destroyed by the business of swimsuits. Even if the swimsuit made by the player would perform better outside of the event because it was an event-specific equipment.

'You can choose all the designs you want, even the additional ones are too much!

And he was angry. It's like when someone gets a benefit, someone else gets a loss. Also, I heard that most people are choosing weapons and armor in this event. I'm not sure if it's because of this event and another reason.

It's not as good as Tact-kun's, but it's a weapon that might be used alongside Tact-kun, so everyone wants it.

Well, it's certainly a strong one. However, if this happens, I feel like my fears are about to come true.

''Is it okay without the event items?　I was told by the Barbayaga that it would be useful.

'We won't know until we actually do the event... we're getting stronger with our weapons, so I'd like to think we can handle it.

I can see a future where I'm going to have a tough time with a lack of items. Mr. Lewin...

Well, there's no point in worrying about the others. We have no choice but to do what we can do for now. In the meantime, I'm going to take Lily and the others and head for Fretia Castle.

I have to hear what Sarah-sama and the others have to say.

''We received a formal protest from the Cardinal of Gones the other day.

What was it about?

'Simply put, what we have done is an act of grave rebellion against God. Now extradite Jeanne and release the punishing knight. Something like this.

Well, it's a conventional story. But there's something I'm curious about.

You even demanded the release of the Disciplinary Knight.

That's what stuck with us, too. We're afraid they're going to get their memories back from Robert and the others, that's what we expected.

Well, I guess that's about it. I don't know how, but it's like he knows he failed to kill himself and he's trying to get it back.

'So how did Freetia respond?

He replied that there is no such person or disciplinary knight in our country.

That's another common response.

'Jeanne, under a false name, has officially been processed as a citizen of Freetia. The Disciplinary Knight is a knight still enrolled in Freetia. Therefore, this is how I answered.

Won't there be a war or something?

It's not possible. If we go to war, they know what will happen. But there may be skirmishes. So I thought I'd give you a heads-up, Mr. Tact.

Well, I'm a party to it. Then I want to make sure that you know what you're doing.

"What do I do if I get attacked?

You may return fire. I'd appreciate it if you could neutralize them.

I understand.

Thank God they gave me the green light. Those guys were weak, so we managed it, but I'm not sure they'll be okay next time.

''Also, the Reich Empire beat us to it, but I've completed a weapon I made based on Ix's weapon.

Oh! Seriously! Looks like.

Princess Sarah's got a mechanical sword. I'll appraise it.

Magic Sword: Rare Level 6 One-Handed Sword, Quality C
Weight: 35 Endurance Value: 70 Attack Power: 20
Effect: The effect differs depending on the magic you shed.
A sword whose attributes and effects change depending on the magic power you shed.

It was a magic sword. And a weapon almost as good as the Sword of Blue Storm... it was hard to tell Chiffon...

The biggest advantage of this weapon is the convenience that when you channel magic power, its attributes change accordingly. Once the zombies are here, there's no need to collect silver weapons.

How could you make something like this? But there are flaws.

''The problem is the materials... it's too expensive to make. It's not a weapon suitable for mass production.

There's this. I'm having a hard time making weapons for Ix, too.

The Reichs are making more money than they can afford, though.

The Reichswehr, after all, isn't half bad. Well, I guess that means it's worth it. Especially since the Reich Empire couldn't deal with zombies, the mass production of this weapon may have been an urgent necessity.

I left Freetia Castle. I feel like I was completely warned that I would be attacked, but I won't show any mercy if they do.

I'm going to send a text message to Lewin-san and the others just in case. It's confirmed that there will be a skirmish. In that case, I'll also let them know that I've received permission to fight.

Then I received a reply from Yugues, who wants to go to see the Blue Men's shipbuilder, so I'm going to go with Luin and the others. The reason is that if the next event is at sea, we might need to build a ship.

Maybe I should think seriously about what I'm going to do, too. I looked for a place I'd been told by my grandmother, a carpenter, and found it.

'Excuse me,'

Hmm?　That's unusual. Are you a visitor?

'Oh, yes. I'm here by way of my grandmother, a carpenter from Fretia.

'Oh!　You're introducing me to Freetia's grandmother.　Oops. Come inside, please.

He's a nice guy. Ruin and the others are also sneaking around.

"Sorry to disturb you.

When we walked in, we found a huge, pre-built ship. Amazing! I've never seen a quintessential shipyard. Tensions are running high.

"Ha, ha. Freetia's grandmother should introduce you. I think she likes boats.

'Yes. Just looking at it makes me feel better.

We can talk. So you've been commissioned by the ship today?

Oops. I almost forgot to cut to the chase.

'Yes. Actually, we need a boat in the mangrove forest, is this the right material?

I take out the cypress.

"That's a lot of cypress. But in a mangrove forest, I'll take a small boat.

Oh no. Why is that?

The river is narrow and rocky in places. The forest is also a maze, so you need a small boat that can maneuver around it to get through it.

I've never heard of it. I'm curious about the event, but if that's what you're talking about, I'd choose a small boat.

"Aye, sir. Then build a small boat.

I'll take care of it.

Then Mr. Yug speaks.

'Oh, um!　Will you let me help him build his ship?

Hmm?　I don't mind, but do you like boats?

'Yes!　I love it!

'I've never heard of such a thing...'

Mr. Lewin was tsking in a whisper.

'All right!　Then we'll make it together. You don't mind?

Yes. I'm fine.

I'm sure Mr. Hugues can handle it. We parted ways with Mr. Lwin and the others there.
