Chapter 363.1. A Large Aerial Battleship!
-Miu’s POV-
Mii-chan, with a serious expression, taught Sora and Mai how to do somersaults in her room.
I stared at the window that had appeared in front of me.
-Warning! We have detected a force that interferes with the world. Target set: True Sky Castle.-
Beep-beep, an intense warning sound echoed in her ears. It was a sound that heightened a sense of crisis.
[Beep-beep, beep, cough-cough, beep. Let’s have some water. Oh, off we go.]
It seemed like the little girl was imitating the warning sound, perhaps just my imagination.
Due to the [Complete Synchronization], I knew the details of the backstage work, which was a side effect.
Unmodified sounds occasionally slipped through.
So, it’s just my imagination.
“Mii-nee, what’s wrong?”
“Mii-neetan, what’s wrong?”
On the long, fluffy carpet, Sora and Mai, rolling around, noticed Mii-chan’s serious expression and worriedly pulled at her sleeves.
What’s this? There are 2 angels here. They’re so cute that I want to hug them tightly.
“I just received a notification email. I’m going out for a bit! Be good, and I’ll be back soon!”
“Yeah, we’ll be good and wait!”
“Bring us back souvenirs! We’ll be looking forward to them!”
“Souvenirs, okay? I’ll be waiting!”
“Alright, I’m off! Ranko-san, I leave the two of them to you!”
The honest and good-natured Sora and Mai, who resembled Mii-chan, nodded and waved their hands as she left.
I was captivated by their adorable figures, but something had happened that I couldn’t ignore.
With small hands and feet swinging, I rushed out of my room and headed to the garden.
While running through the corridor, she communicated with everyone, who looked surprised at her serious expression.
[Everyone, gather in the backyard of the Takano residence. It seems that the enemy has acted faster than expected.]
[…That’s fast. Wasn’t there an event to snatch away Aguni Masatoshi?]
[Members who were guarding Masatoshi have withdrawn. It seems the enemy either stopped using the key or had another method. Our expectations were off.]
Grandpa Odin’s frowning face appeared, confirming whether the trap had failed.
I reluctantly nodded.
Expecting an event where the enemy tried to snatch Aguni Masatoshi and turn it into a key, I secretly assigned Heroic Spirits as guards and monitored him.
I also assigned guards to Mion and the orphans at the orphanage close to Aguni Masatoshi.
Of course, I also assigned some guards to Sena.
I thought there might be events like being taken hostage and abducted. However, the enemy ignored Aguni Masatoshi as expected and moved on to control the world.
The figures of every one were displayed on the window, and in the midst of them, Freyja asked.
[Young lady… Are you gathering everyone in the garden? Are you planning to expose us all? Are you going to let all our efforts go to waste?]
It would be troublesome if Freya and the Heroic Spirits, who were hiding their existence, were seen.
[I’ll create an airborne battleship soon, so board it to avoid being seen by anyone!]
[I guess there’s no other choice. I’m fine, but Freya and the others need to be careful, okay?]
[Understood. We’ll hide and sneak in.]
[Please make it inconspicuous! Make it look normal, okay?]
[Got it, Lady. If it comes to a decisive battle, this modified Gjallarhorn will come into play.]
Focusing on Freya, everyone nodded. Heimdall took a harmonica and started playing “Neko Funjatta” (I Stepped on the Cat). Perhaps he had been practicing recently. But he played it poorly because he’s lazy?
Nevertheless, the harmonica’s sound, modified from somewhere, could be heard. It seemed he had modified it to be audible to the world. He’s a skilled guy for unnecessary things.
As we flew out of the mansion and entered the garden, a splendid garden with flowers in full bloom for spring awaited them. The gardeners who were pruning noticed Mii-chan and greeted her, to which she lightly raised her hand in return. She opened the status board upon reaching the fountain at the garden’s center,
Development like this had never occurred in games, novels, or anime. The story had concluded, and they were entering a new phase.
“Or maybe this is the True Ending Route.”
Tightening her cheeks, Mii-chan took a deep breath.
It was an unexpected turn of events. I thought I had a little more time to prepare.
-[Machinist]-
-Aerial Battleship Asgard-
I selected the item she wanted to create and checked the list of required materials. It displayed a vast amount of materials with the quality of the treasures. Selling them would probably amount to several decades of the national budget.
However, there was no problem. Mii-chan had obtained numerous materials in previous battles. She could build the aerial battleship.
There was a slight concern. The largest thing I could create in the game was a canoe for crossing rivers.
It was a small boat about 3 meters in size. What would happen with a battleship that was 300 meters long?
“I’ll know once I make it. Click.”
With a little excitement, I pressed the button.
Sitting down, hands raised in front in a salute, I circulated my magic power. Then, a platinum sphere, like high-viscosity water, was created between my hands, and it got deformed as if boiling. After a few minutes, under the watchful eyes of the gardeners, the platinum sphere turned into a perfect sphere and slowly floated upward.
When it floated about 50 meters high, it emitted a flash and swelled up while Mi-chan and the others watched. A futuristic streamlined hull with a platinum glow, lacking a bridge. Twelve turrets in triple mounts. Crystal spheres, the size of a person, arranged on the side of the hull like hedgehogs, caught the eye.
It was supposed to be just a battleship cannon, but it seemed to have anti-aircraft guns too, indicating modifications.
The 300-meter-long aerial battleship Asgard. Bathed in sunlight, its floating figure was beautiful, emanating a powerful force.
