Knights & Magic - Chapter 115: Part 3
“That’s ah! Yes, I’m sorry. Right now, there aren’t enough houses in the village, enough for everyone to use…”
The village chief looked stunned, he was very sorry and bowed his head.
There were facilities for villagers to use. However, it was not considered to invite visitors. No way, he could guide the knights to the collapsed house.
Edgar, who saw the village chief’s situation, nodded vigorously as he told him to feel at ease.
“I understand. When it comes to a village that has been damaged by a demon beast, we cannot abandon it away. And don’t worry about that and our share.”
When Edgar returned to the cockpit of Aldriadcumber, he grabbed the loudspeaker.
“Everyone, listen. First of all, we’ll help them with the restoration work of the village. I assume that the support activities and damage caused by the monster disaster will be enormous. I will contact the ship and move immediately.”
“Roger that!”
The Karrdetolles of the first company, started to move without hesitation.
Although the Silver Phoenix Knights usually operate free-spiritedly, they are still one of the Knights of the Kingdom of Fremeverra. It is possible to say that preventing damage from demonic beasts and helping to restore the village if it is damaged, is said to be the first basic thing you learn as a knight.
Immediately, a unit wearing a Phantom Armor came down from the airship. “Atmospheric compression propulsion, ” is exercised, and the knights who landed smoothly started to move.
“The first group will explore the surrounding material situation in the vicinity. In addition, they will also scout the demon beast.”
“The second group was formed. Is there any unnecessary rubble? You’ll clean it up a bit.”
“The remaining third group. Let’s unload the ship. We will coordinate with the villagers.”
“Then, as the fourth group, the blacksmith corps, please submit the construction plan by the time of material procurement.”
“OK. I’ll show you the building in a while.”
Aside from the villagers whose mouths were left open again, the Silver Phoenix Knights began their activities furiously in the midst of a meeting. It was a terrifyingly familiar movement.
“What the hell is going on…”
Villagers who couldn’t keep up with the situation, could only watch.
Everything was too abrupt. But they too knew and vaguely understood that something even more outrageous than when the giants had visited was about to happen.
The village which was half dead and half alive due to the damage by the battle, was reborn in a few days to be better than before.
The work proceeded efficiently by combining a powerful transport machine called the Phantom Knight and a machine tool called the Phantom Armor that has a small maneuverability. Before the stunned onlooking villagers, the house was completed at a jest-like speed.
“Since it’s not a big deal let’s make our dormitory too~.”
“That’s right. I want to live on the ground soon~.”
“I want a bed! A fluffy one!”
“Hey hey, as expected there’s no cotton.”
“Isn’t there a good demon beast? The one who can get the animal hair.”
“Hmm. I feel like I saw a good guy during the reconnaissance.”
“Okay, let’s hunt.”
The members of the Silver Phoenix Knights, who had repaired the village quickly, were building their own houses with too much momentum.
So, when they went hunting for materials, a Karrdetolle led the Phantom Armor unit into the forest.
Buildings are not the only ones that have changed. At the edge of the village, Phantom Knights are lined up in a parked position, and blacksmiths are moving around. In addition, a unit wearing Phantom Armor was guarding the surrounding area as a sentry. The airship stopped in the sky, Flying Knights are resting their wings.
No longer, it’s now a good base.
“What on earth it is trying to become…”
Looking at the village which had become a better place to live, the villagers could only mutter in a daze.
At that time, at the smithy in the back of the village, the members of the Blacksmith’s Corps were bustling about.
“It’s solid! It’s not simple equipment! This one is good.”
“Well, after all is it easier to do it?”
When Edgar, who was checking with them asked, they raised their fists.
“That’s right! Did they make armor for the giants? That’s enough.”
“It’s an unfamiliar place, but I think I can do it.”
“I don’t want them to underestimate us. At the time of Kusheperka, we were running around and working here and there!”
“It’s a lot easier when you can sit back and do it.”
Their words were true, and they immediately began to move energetically.
From the airship, various parts were unloaded. Among them, there was a distinct characteristic aircraft.
“Ikaruga, they’re going to assemble it.”
“Well, leave it to us. If the Boss is not here we can do the maintenance, because we are trained too.”
The parts of Ikaruga which were separated for each part were assembled, and the heart of Sylphyane was being carried there.
The two remaining Magic Conversion Furnaces > increased their output and magic power flowed to the connected Silver Wire Nerves >. Reinforced magic was activated and the parts with increased strength were connected.
They felt proud of themselves as they completed the work with skillful movements.
The Devil’s Forest, deep in the Bocuse Great Sea of Trees. In a corner of the area controlled by giants, Ikaruga regained its proper form.
Addy raised her arm as she watched the aircraft being assembled in such a busy state.
“Eru-kun, Ikaruga is ready! Well, the output is a little low. And I wonder if I can handle it as well as Eru-kun.”
“Don’t worry, Addy-chan, because she’s got a secret plan from its master.”
“Eh. What What~?”
Addy was surprised to see the drawings shown by the blacksmith.
“Hmm, I think I can do aerial combat”, Addy thought to herself.
“Well, let’s do it. Ikaruga’s functions are a little excessive in the first place. There is something I can do as it is.”
She turned around and looked up at Ikaruga. The terrifying demon face now looks somewhat boring.
“Once completed, I have to move it around and practice.”
Addy smiled as she remembered its true owner. If she can control Ikaruga, she will be next to him forever. She was fired up and started a blast off into the future.
Thus, a flag was raised in the village. It was a flag with a coat of arms of a Silver Phoenix spreading its wings.
In the midst of the Bocuse Sea of Trees, A paradise of demonic beasts, the map is quietly being repainted.
Notes:
[1]. In Dietrich’s observation, Zachariah’s face was too impassive,
[2]. The giants will only follow a ‘high-ranking’ giant, or through a test of strength. Parl is a 4-eyed giant, and in this case, the giants respect the numbers of ‘eyes’ one has as a hierarchy or law, the higher the better. Parl is the representative of the Caerleus Clan, so that’s why she had to go convincing the other clans, but the question is “How?”
[3]. Astragal, Something like a furniture with half-round surfaces, mostly related to architecture like doors, hinges, columns, etc.
[4]. Guess its villager 2 retorting villager 1’s remark. And for their understanding it’s supposedly not in the sky floating.
