Chapter 193 Air Travel

Part 1

“Ooooh, it is flying, it is flying, you know.” (Cry)

“It’s only natural since it’s an airship, desu!” (Kruz)

Kruz looked at me as if I was a country bumpkin while saying that.

To think that, of all people, I would be looked at like that by a Spirits People who initially live humbly in the depths of the forest…… It seems that Kruz has become quite accustomed to the city.

In any case, the airship’s takeoff went smoothly. The floating sensation I felt for a moment was calmer than any flight I have ever experienced.

To think that a man-made object could really fly…… Technological progress is really amazing……

As I leaned pointlessly on my huge staff and looked down at the ground in the distance, Kruz asked me with a frown.

“By the way, what is that wand? Desuka?” (Kruz)

“It is a Staff Relic. Isn’t it awesome?” (Cry)

As it is also quite fashionable. When I say that confidently, Kruz, who was using a rustic wooden staff, looks at her own staff.

Artifacts from the past often take on unusual shapes.

『Round World』 is no exception to this rule, as Magi’s staff is usually made of wood due to its suitability as a magical medium, but this one has a metallic sheen to it. And yet, it wasn’t made of Mithril, which was common for magical weapons.

I don’t know why the round jewel was floating on the top of the staff, nor do I know for what purpose it was floating. Its mysterious and unclear part makes it really feel like a Relic.

Compared to swords and other physical weapons, staff Relics are fewer and very expensive. Not many Hunters, even advanced-level ones, have them.

This wand was completely useless as a weapon because it had zero magic amplification effect, which is normally required for a wand, but it still cost quite a bit.

By the way, the bracelets that Term wears on his arms are also probably Relic.

It must be a wand bracelet-shaped Relic. It is even more expensive than a purely wand-shaped Relic. As expected of someone who is at the top of a Magi group in the Imperial Capital, he has some good stuff.

“………… Yowaningen, why didn’t you have it up until now, desu?” (Kruz)

“It’s because I didn’t need it.” (Cry)

“…………” (Kruz)

As if she wanted to say something, Kruz twisted her well-shaped eyebrows.

It had been a while since I had held it, but the staff was quite heavy. I don’t mind that the design is cool, but I was quite tired by just carrying it up here.

Weapons Relic are often light despite their appearance, but the disappointing thing about this staff is that, just like its appearance, it is quite heavy.

I should have asked Liz to bring along a weight-reducing Relic (For Liz and the others, this level of weight is nothing, so they won’t bring it unless I ask for it).

The ability of the 『Round World』 is translation. Rather than translation, it might be more appropriate to call it interpretation. It does nothing more, nothing less than that.

It conveys conversations in real-time in a form that can be understood, but since it only converts sounds, it is not possible to communicate with the carpet as it doesn’t speak. I had already made peace with the carpet, so it was fine, but this isn’t a very handy tool.

However, there is one thing that this staff was very good at. And that is――Its user-friendliness.

The procedure for using the 『Round World』 is very similar to the process used by Magi, and it is so easy to use that anyone who has ever used Magic before can activate it without any problem.

“…… I didn’t know that you had a Staff Relic, desu.” (Kruz)

“I also have swords and axes Relics. They are just part of my collection.” (Cry)

“…… I see. Those Relics are too good to be kept in your collection, desu. But it’s such a strange staff…… Desu. Is it true that a Staff Relic has a greater magic conversion rate, desu?” (Kruz)

“Un, un, that’s right……” (Cry)

It seems that it couldn’t be helped that she is curious about the staff as she is a Magi. Kruz *chirachira* glances at the 『Round World』 and compares it to her staff. Unfortunately, this is not a wand, but rather a wand-type interpreter, so I think your staff is superior.

Feeling Kruz’s eyes on me, I looked around and found Kechakchakka, who was looking down at the outside, alone, while I was wondering what she was thinking.

The reason I asked Liz to go all the way back to the Imperial Capital to get me the staff was so that I could have a conversation with Kechakchakka.

I triumphantly approached Kechakchakka while holding the staff in a badass manner. The suspicious sorceress who wears deeply her hood looks here.

“Yo, Kechakchakka, are you worried about something?” (Cry)

“Hihi…… Hihihi……” (Kechakchakka)

“Fire1? Are you worried about fire?” (Cry)

“Kekekekeke……” (Kechakchakka)

As always, she is still someone with whom I can’t communicate. However, that ends now.

I activated 『Round World』. I smiled and talked to her.

“Sorry, can you say that again?” (Cry)

“Ukekeke…… Keke.” (Kechakchakka)

Kechakchakka’s words were very suspicious, but her eyes, hidden behind her hood, were surprisingly calm.

I strongly nodded and replied.

“…… Hihihihi.” (Cry)

“Uhiii!?” (Kechakchakka)

“Kekeke…… Keke.” (Cry)

“Kekee! Kekekekee!” (Kechakchakka)

“…………………. I see…… I see, now.” (Cry)

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

The hihihi and ukekek part was so nice to translate, so easy XD

I really need Round World to help me translate, in fact I am doing the same thing as Round World.

I ask Google-sensei to read the sentence for me and I translate it because I don’t know how to read japanese lmaoooo!

Tchao à plus!
