Hard Work Will Never Betray Me - CH 57
Lily, who had hurriedly come to me with transfer magic after preparing herself after the communication, spoke to me in a slightly angry tone.
“You just can’t not invite me to such a fun thing!
“I don’t know wht on your mind , you know ?
“Of course it will be fine if that Hal
Is that so? I don’t understand why any parent would leave their beloved daughter in the hands of a child like me .
“Well, now that we can go together like this…”
“Oh, no! A thieving cat took mercy on me! Hahaha!
“Oh, do you think it’s mean showing Mercy ?”
It’s a woman’s war. ……!
I was watching from the side thinking, “What’s wrong with you?”
“But if you’re a bride to be, you should be more cautious ! You’re supposed to call your fiancé first in such cases!
“Well, yeah, I guess , it’s right thing .”
“Of course!”
My bride Lily got angry with me.
Well, her base personality is Japanese. It’s hard to connect daily activities with aristocratic ideas like my bride’s , let alone scientific knowledge.
“Also, her father said that no matter if she is bride s, she is still an unmarried women , so he can’t allow her to stay overnight.
“What are you going to do then?”
It’s a good thing I’m came , but I can’t go on an adventurous journey if I can’t stay the night.
“So I’m leaving at night. I’ll transfer back to you in the morning with transfer magic, so don’t leave me behind
“I see, I understand. Is that okay with you, Mei?:
“Well, she’s the one who started it.”
The girls, who had just were in a fire fight between were relatively friendly as long as I didn’t get involved, probably because she had saved her lives. For Lily, a friend who is not bound by status differences is probably valuable.
“So, let’s get going.”
“Yeah!”
Now that we’ve talked it out, we’re off. The sun had already risen .
✳︎
“No, ……, but it’s a long way.”
“Well, it’s 350 kilometers away.
“Boring . I wonder if there’s anything I can do to pass the time?”
After walking for about half an hour out of town, we were getting pretty bored. We walked and walked, but the scenery didn’t change. All we could see were meadows, wheat fields, a few forests. There were the occasional monsters , but they were regularly exterminated, and none of them seemed to come to the area around the road.
In other words, it was boring as hell.
It was about 350 kilometers northeast to the village near the demon forest where we were heading t In a straight line, it would be about the distance from Tokyo to Lake Biwa. If to use a more realistic analogy in terms of direction, it would be somewhere between Tokyo and northern Miyagi Prefecture.
In any case, in this world without vehicles, a distance of 350 kilometers is big distance . Even in modern Japan, where trains are available, it is not an short distance to travel unless you use the bullet train. It’s too far to walk, and Lily’s transfer magic can only take her to places she’s been before.
We are not leave the Farenheit territory which shows you just how big our frontier territory is.
“Mei, there’s no one around, so let’s get that thing out.”
“Is that it?”
“Yes, that one.
When I asked her to do so, she looked back at me and confirmed it.
“What’s that? Don’t be so shy , show me.
It was cute to see Lily looking like she wanted to be shown how to do it, but I felt sorry for her if she didn’t, so I encouraged May to let her out.
This is the trail wagon “” that runs through the wilderness of the Great Plains!
“What’s this?”
As Mei mouths the sound of a small drum that was also present in this world, she pulls out a transport from item box that looks like the sum of a standard carriage and a Volkswagen Type II.
I knew what the Trail Wagen Buffalo was, as I had been involved in its development ……, or rather, had interjected from the side, but Lily, who had never seen one before, probably couldn’t understand what it was just by looking at it. In fact, it is a mobile artifact that does not yet exist in this world, so it is not surprising.
“Lily, this is …… a self-propelled carriage.”
“Self-propelled carriage ……?””
“Yes. It’s a carriage that moves without horses.”
“A carriage that moves without horses?”
That’s a car, in other words. That’s what it is. With Mei’s super technology, I have created the concept of automobiles in this other world.
“Come on, let’s take a ride.”
“I’ll take one!””
“I’m in!”
Lily was next, and then Mei got in.
“It’s pretty big inside.
“That’s what we had to work so hard for!”
Mei is banging on the walls like a Japanese car development team.
“But does it really work?”
“It’s pretty fast, it’ll go fifty kilometers.”
“Yes, it does. It can go up to about 70 kilometers per hour.”
“Seventy kilometers!”
Seventy kilometers is about the speed of a horse running at full speed. The fact that this metal ,monster can go as fast as a horse is probably unbelievable.
“After you will see it is Let’s try to drive it.”
As soon as she said that, Mei got into the driver’s seat and started the magic engine. It seems that my [shock] is also involved in this engine, but I don’t know the details either. The only thing I know is that Mei is amazing .
–The vehicle began to vibrate slightly, making a nice little sound. The vibration is quite pleasant, about the same as that of a modern Japanese bus.
“Then let’s get underway!”
“Oh, it’s moving!
Slowly, the “Buffalo” moved along the unpaved street with exposed soil. The suspension is so effective that I don’t get carsick even on bumpy roads.
“Oh my ! It’s so comfortable!”
I exclaimed as I stuck my head out the window and let the wind hit my face. The inside of the Buffalo is like a large living room, so it’s easy to move around inside .
“Mei, you’re amazing. ……”
“Oh my , I’ve been complimented! And , you can drink the drinks in the storage room there.
Mei showed us the storage room, which looked like a refrigerator …… set up in the car. The time inside is stopped by the application of Lily’s space-time magic, so the items inside will not deteriorate unless the door is opened.
“Lily’s space-time magic is pretty awesome too.””
I said to Lily, who smiled and handed me a glass of chilled Rango juice.
“Oh, thank you.”
“Mmm-hmm.”
“Yee-hei”
Lilly smiled beside me. Mei was driving at high speed .
Everyone seems to be having fun, and I’m starting to enjoy it too.
