56 – aka wheel – 56
“here… … A flying airport!”
An airfield located in Sumonia. When we finally got there, we caught our breath and looked around.
“There are so many people!”
“Because it is the only flying airport in Sumonia. Rosé, do you have to hold my hand tight? If you get lost here, there is no answer.”
“Because I’m not a child?!”
The relationship between Rosé, who has been treated as a child, and Priscilla, who is taking care of her, has a subtle power that draws smiles from people around her.
“Gregory, aren’t you new to airships too?”
Raphael standing next to me looking at Rosé and Priscilla together. she asked, glancing at me.
“You mean the airship? I’ve ridden it quite a few times in the past.”
“okay? Are you surprised?”
Of course, it was a story in the game.
It was essential to use an airship to move to another continent, so I used the airship as if I were eating.
Well, in the game, it floats around and arrives in 3 seconds.
As we were spending time talking among ourselves, Amel and Hugo, who had gone to the information counter, and Dalian instructor Selua Negal, who were to be our guides, returned.
“The airship we will be on will arrive in a while. Let’s all go to Gate 8.”
At the instructor’s words, we headed straight for Gate 8.
“Wow! big! It’s huge!”
Outside Gate 8. The airship slightly floating off the ground was very similar to the one I knew.
From the cabin below to the giant balloon above.
However, if there was one thing that was different, it was that there was a glowing green stone near the bottom.
“… … This is an airship!”
I just heard it while talking to Raphael at the airport, and it seems that airships can fly through the air through the gas in the balloon and a substance called ‘floating stone’ attached to the floor.
Of course, the power is the Prism Stone.
“Rosé? There’s not much time left to board, so you’ll have to get on quickly.”
“yes! thank you. Senior Amel!”
“Amel is enough.”
Still, Amel is the most senior among the students and takes care of the other juniors.
After all, it didn’t seem like he was serving as the leading manager for free.
“Valmenga.”
“… why do you call That, Gregory Jones.”
When someone like that calls me by name, I put on a pretty embarrassed expression.
“If you leave for the Imperial Academy, who will manage the guidance department?”
“There is nothing to worry about because I left the job to the couple.”
It seems that there is also a deputy head of the leadership team.
The inside of the airship was like seeing the inside of a passenger ship.
The hall in the middle, a small stage, and a shop. And to the corridors and cabins lined on both sides.
As we looked around and looked at where our room would be, the instructor said, as if asking what we were doing.
“What are you doing there? We are on the second floor.”
“Second floor?”
The second floor that went up like that. There were only 8 rooms in that large space.
“Priscilla and Raphael in Room 201. Rosé and Gregory Jones are room 202, Amell and Hugo are room 203, and I am room 204.”
“… … I didn’t expect it, but I thought I’d be using the upper floors of the airship. Is this the power of Princess Priscilla?”
Amel trembles as she looks at the key to room 203 in her hand.
Apparently, the upper floors of the airship felt like first class if you were to think of it as an airplane.
“Priscilla, did you use your strength?”
“yes? no? It seems that the Vice-Chancellor used his strength. Because we are going as representatives of the summoner academy right now.”
Is it the academy’s consideration?
“Everyone, put your luggage and rest in your room. I’ll let you rest until I arrive too.”
After saying that, the instructor went straight into the room.
That’s how the three of us were left in the hallway.
“Then I’ll leave my luggage and rest in the guest room. If you’re bored, come and play~”
Priscilla also enters the room.
“We are also resting in the room. Let me know if anything happens or if you need help.”
Amel also goes inside, and at last only the two of us are left.
“I can’t believe it… … ! Can a rural half-elf enjoy such luxury?!”
“I thought I didn’t say anything from earlier, but… … Were you just surprised?”
“I can’t help but be surprised! I am… … I, an elf, can fly in the sky! I am so excited!”
“Then why don’t we leave our luggage and walk around a bit?”
As if waiting for my words, Rosé started shaking her head violently.
“So good!”
We left our luggage in the room and headed straight to the 4th floor. Since the third floor is the area where airships are operated, it seems that ordinary people are not allowed to enter.
All four sides of the fourth floor were made of glass, and several restaurants and cafes were located.
“Wow! Gregory! If you look down from here later, I think it will be very pretty!”
“Wouldn’t that be scary?”
“no. It must be pretty!”
[Airship Atlas. I will take off.]
Announcements heard through the speakers on the 4th floor. Soon, a gurgling sound was heard, and slowly the airship began to rise vertically.
“uh? uh! Come to mind! Come to mind! Gregory!”
Rosé ran to the window and looked down like a child.
The feeling of the airship floating was similar to that of an airplane taking off, but I didn’t feel any severe tremors, perhaps because I didn’t take off while running forward.

Gradually, more and more, the airship stopped rising only after Sumonia, located below, rose to the point where it looked like a miniature city.
Soon, the propellers on both sides began to move, and the airship began to move forward.
It was definitely amazing.
To come over to this world and board an airship that has nothing to do with modern civilization.
“Gregory! Look over there! The academy looks so small!”
Rosé, whose face was already almost buried in the window, shouted with an excited voice, her hips twitching.
“Are you going to stay here?”
“yes?”
Rosé turned her head at my words. Did you think it would go down?
“I heard that the 4th floor is an outdoor terrace. It would be better to appreciate the scenery there.”
“Go now!”
Rose grabs my hand and runs upstairs.
My body, guided by Rosé’s hand, follows me.
When we arrived at the end of the stairs to the 4th floor, the blue sky, clouds and sunlight greeted us.
“Wow!”
surely.
“That’s amazing.”
“Yes?”
A fantasy world seen from above, the scenery was overwhelming.
“I can’t see Sumonia anymore!”
I thought that speed would not come out because of its bloated size, but it seemed to come out faster than I thought.
“At this speed, the wind must be strong, but I don’t know how to operate an outdoor terrace.”
“hmm… … Could it be because of that?”
Rosé said that and pointed to a stone pillar in the corner of the terrace.
Looking closely, I could see that there were stone pillars with strange patterns drawn on them in other corners.
“It’s magic.”
“yes. It seems to be used to block the wind.”
Still, is the fantasy world still a fantasy world?
A terrace unaffected by the wind, even though it is high in the sky, I heard Rosé’s exclamation from the side when I was looking down while fully enjoying the fantasy.
“and! After all, since it goes up to this level, you can see the flying dragon too, right?”
… … … a flying dragon?
“Rosé! Get down right now!”
“yes? Eh? Eh?!”
I wrapped the burning rose around my waist and quickly went inside, and at the same time I started hearing a loud siren.
[Currently, a bandit has appeared! We ask our guests to return to their rooms immediately and wait!]
It’s only now that it’s a bandit event, so no luck.
“Gregory? How did this happen?”
Rosé, who was hanging from my side like a shoulder bag, looked up at me and asked cautiously.
“… It’s a traitor. They’re thieves from the sky. The airship will send a rescue signal, so we’ll just have to sit in the cabin and wait.”
When I finally reached the second floor, I saw other colleagues standing in the hallway on the second floor. Apparently, everyone jumped out after hearing the broadcast.
“Rosé, Gregory. It came just fine.”
And in front of them, instructor Selua saw us and made a welcoming expression.
“Why is everyone with me?”
If you sit in the room and wait as shown in the broadcast, things will be resolved on its own. There was something strange about it being all out like this.
“I just got a call from the engine room. They asked us for help. And we have just responded to that request.”
“… It seems that the rescue team said they were late.”
“Did you know? It seems that a fire has just broken out at Sumonia’s airfield. It must have been a planned arson.”
planned arson. What it says is clear.
“Is there something the bandits are aiming for inside this airship?”
“Accurate. I’m just guessing, but… … I can’t be sure.”
Perhaps the target the instructor is thinking of is Priscilla, the princess of the empire, or us, who are currently heading to the imperial academy.
However, I couldn’t be sure because there was no exact evidence or information.
“In other words, did you accept the offer thinking you were caught up in us?”
“It is rather the opposite. We just judged that it would be better to defend from the beginning because we would be at a disadvantage if we let go anyway. Honey, could you fly?”
He nodded his head at the instructor’s question.
“good night. Priscilla and Rosé deal with the bandits approaching from the 4th floor with the summoned beasts. Me and Amel, who can’t fly, let’s defend the inside of the airship.”
The instructor applauded after saying that.
“To the location.”
Following the instructor’s order, we ran to the terrace on the 4th floor again.
────!!!
A flying dragon circling around the airship screaming and an airship approaching from afar.
“Raphael. Can you stop the dragon?”
“Well, you’d better get it a little away from the airship first. Gregory. Can you deal with the airship over there?”
“It is. Rosé, so you can protect Priscilla.”
“yes!”
“transform.”
Turning into wheel form, I stretched out my hand in the direction the airship was approaching.
It’s the first flight battle after coming over here, but… … .
In the world I originally lived in, there was a saying like this.
There is no business in quantity.
“The Black Swamp.”
First of all, I was thinking of dealing with them with a stock attack.
