“Come on, take care of the wounded!”
“Bring the priest!”
“There’s someone trapped here!”
After the intense battle, about a hundred knights moved hurriedly.
“How much damage?”
“First of all, most of the warships were sunk, and those that survived were flooded here and there, and their hulls were seriously damaged, making navigation difficult.”
“What about the casualties?”
“Thanks to the cows, fortunately, there are no fatalities. However, most of them are seriously injured, so only about 100 people can move immediately.”
Hancock’s report was disastrous.
There were no deaths, but it was a fleet made up of only elites, and most of them suffered casualties.
Besides, the ship is almost completely sunk.
“If it wasn’t for Ramias, it would have been a big deal.”
“It’s frustrating, but this time the cow’s credit is big.”
Lamias were repairing ships that were in good shape from afar.
It wasn’t a proper repair, and it was said that the broken and severed parts were temporarily attached with mana.
“Your Highness, it is impossible to sail like this. Let alone the Mei Empire, it is not possible to even return to the home country.”
“Hmm…….”
While thinking about it, Aran turned his head to the side.
There was Katarina floating in the water in a giantized state.
While she was trembling under Aran’s climactic attack, she passed out after being hit by Hancock’s ‘Gigantic Ultra Uppercut’.
“How about me…?”
“Yes?”
Hancock also turned his head in that direction.
“…Your Highness, are you saying you’re riding that red horse?”
“…”
“No matter how little it is…”
Hancock made a face of exasperation.
No matter how much you float in the water. Even though I’m a human, I’m riding…
Hancock moved a little further.
“Your Highness’ growth is amazing.”
“…They said there was no way.”
“The peck cow is repairing the boat. About 100 people should be able to go on board.”
“If you include the Mei Empire’s delegation, there are over 2,000 people, so how do you get there with that one boat?”
Alan was sure.
The only way is to ride Katarina!
“But Your Highness. Then, on the day we wake up in the middle, everyone might drown. Especially the archers.”
“Um… Let’s put it to sleep with magic. Until it arrives. Keep the body temperature so that it doesn’t die.”
“What about power?”
“Um… If you put a sail in your belly button…?”
“…”
She fell on her pale face her.
This time farther away.
“As a teacher, I am delighted with Your Highness’s growth, but isn’t there a certain degree to being clear?”
“Ah, no, it’s okay. You can move with mana. In a way that diverges backwards.”
“Your Highness will be the first to sail like this. I’m 100% sure.”
Eventually, Hancock nodded as well.
It was unavoidable because there was only one ship capable of sailing.
“Oh, there’s one more problem.”
“What is it?”
“Food.”
.
.
.
Fuhuaak!
– Kiyiying!
“It’s great!!”
A huge fish floated above the surface of the sea.
No, I’m too sorry to call it a fish just by looking at its size. It was tens of meters in size.
“Ohhh!”
People cheered.
Water is seawater overflowing everywhere, so you can use a water purifier, but there was no way to get food other than fishing, and there were too many people to survive with commonly known fish.
In the meantime, this big fish (?) Was caught.
-Kieeeee
A fish (?) Struggling in the air suddenly opened its mouth and spat out something.
It was a thick, green liquid that looked dangerous just by looking at it.
“Shield!”
Just as expected.
When it touched the shield, it blew smoke and flowed into the seawater, contaminating the area.
Of course, the price is death.
Due to the knights and cooks nearby, they were severely cut off.
“Uuuuu…That’s strange as expected, Your Highness. This is something you can’t eat.”
“It’s a food that can be eaten even in seawater.”
“But you just saw it!”
“Then do you want to just starve?”
“Your Highness, we can go all the way to the land without a boat. You don’t have to do this.”
“Then, only the soldiers remain, right?”
Hancock shook his head grimly.
In fact, as there are many dishes using seawater, seawater is definitely an animal that can be eaten.
It’s just that she hates seafood.
“I don’t like seafood. Especially, I wonder how on earth they eat mollusk clams. Are they new people?”
“What kind of new people…”
Aran picked up a piece of sashimi that had already been cooked.
“Now, try it.”
“Ugh!”
The fishy smell of fish stung Hancock’s nose.
“Wow. I… I can’t either…”
She backed away, covering her nose, and finally sledged down the hill.
“Hoho. Gong Je-ha doesn’t seem to like it.”
“You’ll have it in a few days.”
Aran ate sashimi while enjoying the scenery.
She had just started on an unusual voyage, but the sun was already setting on her.
“Anyway, it’s more comfortable than I thought. It’s fluffy.”
Lamias stabbed the floor.
The slimy flesh was hollowed out.
“Um…Is it because it’s on the chest?”
“I’ve heard that it’s not just that, but other places are similar.”
Surprisingly, the giant ship (?) Was quite comfortable.
Because it is so large, it has withstood the turbulence of the sea, and except for some parts, the floor is soft.
In addition, the temperature was maintained comfortably by spreading the thermal insulation shield that preserves the temperature along with protection.
The speed was also faster than the high-speed boat because it was using a super-capacity battery called Aran.
At this speed, they should be able to reach the Mei Empire in the next two days.
“The soldiers are already enjoying the hot springs.”
“Onsen? How?”
“I washed the navel clean and poured hot water over it.”
“……Cruel. Won’t you wake up?”
“Yes. It won’t happen for about three days.”
Alan felt guilty again.
In one corner, a building was being built using pieces of wood, but there was even a hot spring in the navel… What would they think when they woke up?
.
.
.
A day has passed since she sailed on a giant ship.
The giant ship developed a little further (?) And created a huge yard with wooden planks attached next to both arms and legs.
It was because it was too small for 2,000 people.
“I’m hungry. Your Highness.”
Said Hancock, who came up again before he knew it.
Her face her looked quite pale.
“Can we go to the city for a while?”
“Well…”
“I will go and bring delicious food and daily necessities. Please allow me.”
Desperation was evident in her eyes.
“I’ll be back in two hours!”
“I think it would be good to do that, Your Highness. How about sending those seriously injured back to their home country?”
“Hmm…”
Alan is in trouble.
It certainly looked good, but I was worried about how the soldiers would react if the main nobles disappeared on their own.
“…Okay. Let’s do it. Instead, we have to come back quickly. We make sure to send the wounded back too.”
“Yep!”
Hancock shouted excitedly and went downstairs.
She soon loaded the seriously wounded into the half-ruined boat and lifted it up with her thin arms.
“I’ll be back!!”
“The power is good too.”
Her bright smile Her was visible from far away.
* * *
“Yes? Really?”
Juana asked with her moved face.
Words I’ve been wanting to hear for so long.
She had just heard of it.
“Yes. When Aran returns after the negotiations, I will make you the Crown Princess.”
“Ah…!”
Effervescence.
It finally came to fruition.
She wasn’t the eldest daughter, and she wasn’t particularly gifted, so how much she had put her heart on hold.
She ruminated that there could always be the worst, and even harbored her bitter feelings for her brothers.
But now it is no longer necessary.
If Cornelia had personally appointed her crown princess, she would not have to reject her own siblings.
She doesn’t have to stay away.
An inconceivable joy showed on her face her.
Cornelia smiled along, but was also worried.
‘Please don’t go astray, Huana.’
“However, there is a condition. Huana.”
“Conditions…?”
“Yes. It won’t be difficult.”
Juana nodded her head.
What would be the conditions for becoming the Crown Princess?
I was ready to accept any conditions sweetly. Even if it meant recognizing Aran as her younger brother her!
“After becoming emperor, don’t ostracize or harass her brothers for nothing. That includes Aran.”
“Sure Mother. I’m not such a bad kid. How could I hurt her brothers her?”
A frowning expression.
Don’t bother her brothers her? I have no intention of doing so anyway. She became emperor, so why bother her own brothers her? She will put you in the right place and make you feel good about yourself.
Aran? How can I protect you? You know what you shouldn’t know, but there are plenty of ways to keep your mouth shut. If you give me everything you want, won’t you keep your mouth shut in the end?
“Huh…”
Even though it was in front of Cornelia, I burst out laughing.
“Oh, and.”
Cornelia added.
“I will establish the great kingdom of Aran in Throdia.”
“…Yes?”
