The next morning.

　With the town hall staff seeing us off, the magic ship DDD left for Guianacombe in the north.
　
　We asked Salamander Sarah to build a simple boarding area next to the town hall, and we boarded the ship from there.
　Although this boarding area is currently only a spiral staircase, there are plans to create a waiting area, shop, cafeteria, and other facilities in the lower part of the building by the time we return from GianaCombe.

　.... and...
　Within minutes of leaving, the problem was discovered....

　It is a stowaway.

　Last night.
"I want to go to Korok too!
　And it was Korok, who had been furiously babbling about it.
I'll take care of it. Anya will take care of it.
　And thanks to the cat people (Cat People), Unya, coming forward, I was able to get a handle on it... or so I thought.

　I didn't expect these two to be sneaking into the loading area together...

'Excuse me~ Unya's curiosity got the better of her.
Bear.
　In front of me at the helm, they look apologetic...but they apologize with a big smile on their faces.
　
　And
It's outrageous that you would not invite a strawberry to such an event.
　And while proudly declaring, the one who hit the cockpit after our departure was the lord's daughter of the frontier city of Batcombe, Biblina.
　Although she's proudly declaring it, she was hiding in her luggage just like Unja and the others until they left, so it's hard to keep up appearances, but she seems to be completely through with it, and as soon as she enters the cockpit
Oh, this is a beautiful sight....
　And we had been completely turned into one passenger.

　For now, although three people were added unexpectedly, that degree does not seem to have any impact on fuel consumption, and as for food, we have brought more food originally, and in some cases, it may be possible to have Lil' Pop, who can use the magic infantry flying form, go out as a scavenger hunt unit.

　As we pass over Batcombe.
　Laird Gelter, who came out of the town hall window, said, "Next time, put me on too~! I was screaming at him.
Father, you're one step ahead of me.
'Vibrina!　Oh, no!　If I thought I couldn't see you!
　He found Biblina, who turned a triumphant smile on him, and stepped on the ground in frustration.

　The mage ship was extremely fast.
　It passed through to Batcombe in about half a second and was moving northward in a hurry.
　The flag of Parma is on the right side of the ship's hull as a proof that the ship belongs to the royal capital, Parma.
　On the left side of the ship's hull, the flags of the small frontier cities are displayed.
　We are hoping to create a flag for the small frontier city of Liberty in the near future, and we are arranging for an open call for proposals to be made in the near future.

　As our altitude stabilized, we deployed our sails and our speed visibly increased.
　Drunn told us that the design is designed to catch the wind automatically, and the effects of this are clearly evident.

　Day 2.

　We reached the skies above the royal capital as early as possible.

　Here, they paused above Quinn Chamber of Commerce, and from there, they descended to Quinn Chamber of Commerce on a rope ladder.
''Wha........what is it!　What was that?!
　Quinn's mouth is watering at the sight of the magic ship for the first time.
"It's a magic ship provided by a newly hired dead man great wizard (Elder Rich) in our city. As a matter of fact, I'm planning to use it to make regular flights between the royal capital and Liberty.
　Quinn's expression lights up at my words.
'It!　It's great!　There's plenty of buzz, and it's definitely going to be well received!
　Therefore, it would be nice if you could leave the setup of the depot and the sale of the tickets at King's Landing to Quinn Trading Company....
Yes, of course I will.
　I held out my right hand as I said that, and Quinn grabbed it with both hands with great force.
'Thank you!　Thank you!
　He bowed his head repeatedly, going up and down violently.

　Quinn kindly provided us with food and water free of charge, and we once again set out for the north.

　By the way.
　Our stay at the Quinn Trading Company lasted about two hours, during which time there was a tremendous crowd of spectators.
Hey, how much do I have to pay to get in that thing?
　The Quinn Chamber of Commerce was inundated with inquiries.
　I've heard that among them were many royalty and church officials in addition to noblemen's messengers.
　At this rate, you can expect quite a few users once the regular flights start sailing.


　Basically, the magic ship would continue to sail at night.
　Once the navigation is stable, there is no particular need to steer the ship, and there is no problem in leaving it to automatic control.
　We do try to sleep on the side of the steerage in case of unforeseen circumstances, such as being attacked by magic, but there has never been a situation where we had to get up and deal with it to this extent.
　Of the rest of the crew, Lil Pop, who didn't need to sleep specifically because of the mages, continued to adjust his magical infantry and magical airmen, but for everyone else, he slept in his cabin.
　I'm trying to get them to experience how comfortable they are in their guest rooms and how comfortable they are when they sleep, and I'm trying to use what I've noticed to help them in the future
Well why don't you build a superior room?　Aristocrats don't like to share a room with a commoner because they are too proud to do so.
　Instead, set the rate for that room higher. And in return, give them a lower rate for a regular room, and they'll appreciate it more.
　Biblina's opinion was the most helpful.
　In addition, some people suggested that it would be a good idea to improve the dining room and a system to allow people to spend money on board the ship during the cruise, and I will take this into account as well.
　Also from Korok.
I need a better seat with a better view of the ground.
　We decided to consider building an observation seat with more windows.

　While we were talking about this, on the third day from the capital, we began to see the Guianacombe.

　The whole area around the Guianacombe was dense with dense forest.
　Here and there, cylindrical shapes of earth protruding from the ground are scattered about, and people have built cities on top of them and are living there.
　The frontier city of Guianacombe is built on the vastest of these lands.
　People and goods are transported to and from the surrounding cities by air by falconers and swallow men, and basically no one goes to the jungle area except to secure water or hunt.

　The earth jutting out of the jungle begins to appear ahead, and everyone in the cabin gathers in the wheelhouse to catch a glimpse of the scene.
"........If we were in the south, we probably wouldn't be able to see this scene in our lifetime.
　In Erdena's words.
That's a big deal! Desperate to see the bear!
　And Korok was slumped against the window, his eyes frantically widening.
　They were all laughing at the scene.
Something's coming, big birdie bear.
　And the next thing Korok said was.

　Zzz.........

　There was a heavy sound as if something had hit the hull, and at the same time the hull shook loudly.
'What the hell happened?
　Deploying a magical radar that allows you to see what's going on around the hull of the ship, you can see what appears to be a giant, ancient bird, and a monstrous bird that is lashing out at the hull of the ship.
　As you look closely, you can see that these ancient birds are swarming around the huge expanse of land ahead, where the frontier city of Guianacombe is believed to be located, and many of them are repeatedly swooping down towards the city.
Could it be that Guianacombe is under attack?
　Biblina makes an impatient voice.
　Nevertheless, with almost no information available, it's hard to decide whether it's a good idea to embark on killing the monster bird at this point.
''For now, the birds that are attacking the ship, Serbin will retrieve them.
Jalvin's going too, isn't he?
　The two of them, both demons, are quick to say so, or they run out of the wheelhouse.

'That one!'
　As they stepped out onto the deck, they saw a monstrous bird that was about to attack the hull again.
　On the deck, the monster bird spotted a figure and changed its trajectory to face the hull of the ship and glided toward the two men.
'You're a good boy~'
　Jalvin took a capsule from the bag on his hip to retrieve the demon.
"'In the name of the witch Jalvin, you command it - 'Forced captivity'.
　He throws the capsule toward the sky and chants.
　Then the capsule is enveloped in light, and the light extends in a straight line towards the monster bird.

　Guaah!

　The monster bird, startled by the light, stopped its movement in the air for a moment, but
　It was swallowed by the light and stored inside the capsule.
　The giant bird's body quickly became smaller and smaller, and by the time the capsule returned to Jalvin's hand, it was about the size of the tip of his index finger and was chirping inside the capsule.
　After this, as the two of them captured the monstrous birds one after another, they seemed to have sensed the danger and hurriedly dispersed and disappeared into the jungle.

''...............''
　When Lil Pop was finally ready to go out, he was tongue-tied in the midst of the demonic infantry for not being able to make it.

　When he came to rest over Guianacombe, he could see the city waving at him in a friendly manner.
　After a while, a few hawk-like figures came to the magic ship.

　When they greeted them on the deck, the falconer got down on his knees and bowed to them.
Thank you for saving my life. I am the captain of the guard in the frontier city of Guianacombe, Eel.
　Then he shook my hand.
　I squeezed his hand back.
''I know it's very rude to ask such a favor of our new guests.
　Would you please help me to govern this skirmish with the ancient monster race?
