I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years chapter 42

42. Departure!

“Wow, is this a boat? How big is it?”

“Is this the first time?”

“Yes! See you first!”

Milia exclaimed in a lively voice and wandered around her stomach curiously, looking around. Having never been on a boat in her life, she seemed quite excited about the fact that she was riding a boat. She’s a cute guy

It’s a relief to see her like that.

I stared at Millia’s back. Though she had thought about it many times, it was close to a miracle that Milia was alive. If she hadn’t been for the skull gourd handed to her at the end, she wouldn’t have survived Millia. She honestly never thought that she would see it here.

Calon’s Mercy.

If my memory is clear, in Survival Academy, it was an item that could be obtained a maximum of 2 times per play. You should be able to get more if you use the bug, but in general, you can get two items, one per play and one when riding a specific route. The effect is to revive dead NPCs.

I never thought I’d use the given item like this to make up for the twist in the quest line while playing without knowing anything… The skull gourd guy might be a better guy than I thought. I feel bad though.

…Well, it’s in the past, so let’s bury it. Because I won’t have to meet that skull gourd anymore.

Now is the time to focus on building the ship you need to escape. I resumed nailing the planks I had made with my skills. If we don’t finish our quota within today, it will take longer to sail. I had to play with my hands steadily to be able to float the boat in a reasonable period of time. Even if the whirlpool disappeared, the damn weather wouldn’t go anywhere.

“I don’t know if Lenny is doing well.”

…I’m worried because I’m too fond of making sake, but I’m sure it’ll be fine.

Again, like the last time, I drank too much and got drunk, and I’ll wake up after getting hit by Karina’s precious back smash a few times. A saintess who uses magic with her back smash is a rare spectacle that can’t be seen anywhere, so it’s fun every time I see it.

Maybe I’m not right anyway.

Following the stream of consciousness, I started to build a boat to escape the uninhabited island.

—————–

“Welcome! Did things go well?”

“I think I can float a boat in a week.”

“Thank God! I want to leave the island quickly!”

“Are you finally outside? It will be very busy when I go back.”

Karina put the food on a table made for four people to gather around and eat with a delighted face. Anyway, the rabbit soup, grilled edible mushrooms that Lenny filtered directly with her body, and fruit cut into appropriate sizes were the end, but even this was a delicacy on an uninhabited island.

“I will eat well.”

Shortly after I finished speaking, I ate the soup with a spoonful of the soup I had boiled with the two rabbits. The plain taste unique to the rabbit meat soup flows down the tongue and down the throat, filling the mouth with a sense of satisfaction. I glanced around and saw that the others were also satisfied with the hearty lunch.

Karina Her cooking skills have improved a lot.

At first, I couldn’t adjust the seasoning or the heat, so the taste was a bit weird.

“John. Does it suit your taste?”

“Delicious.”

“Karina, you really drink!”

As always, the atmosphere was friendly. In fact, there was no room for things to get better, so it was natural if it was natural.

Now there are no monsters that threaten survival on this island, the dungeon has lost its function and zombies no longer pop out, and all the fruits and ingredients from this island are ours. We are also going to start sailing towards the continent soon, so over time it will become an island where only rabbits run. It will become a truly uninhabited island in 10 years.

I, and everyone, hope to be like that.

From noble mtl dot com.

After all, everything will happen on the continent, not on this island.

Ah, is it already over?

As I ate my meal while thinking about it, the bird ate it all up. I thought about eating more for a while, but I decided not to eat too much and cause stomach upset. There are things to think about while walking for a while.

“I will go for a walk for a while.”

“Do you want to go with me?”

“Okay then I’ll join you too-“

“Because I have something to think about.”

When she euphemistically revealed her intention of refusal, Karina nodded with a slightly regretful look on her face. Although Lenny looked at me with suspicious eyes. It’s not what you think, so don’t look at her like that. It’s embarrassing because I remembered that word before.

“Have a good trip!”

Receiving Milia’s cheerful send-off, I quietly walked towards the beach.

My steps stopped when I came near the border of my territory along the beach. Looking around, I quietly recited words that I would not be comfortable speaking in front of others.

“Status window.”

“Why am I 19 years old…”

I get dizzy every time I see it. Doesn’t life on an uninhabited island count as life? He must have been at least the same age when he first drifted, but he’s 19 years old. No, the face value isn’t much different from 10 years ago if you shave your beard… But Karina said she looks younger too.

So what’s my 10 years?

You’re not giving me an assignment to enter the academy, are you?

That’s a really big deal.

…Let’s get over this for now. If I don’t go back to the mainland anyway, I won’t know what’s next.

The more annoying part is the character.

The status window of the survival academy I know must have been plastered with numbers, but why are they written in English instead of college credits? Even so, it is annoying that there are many characteristics that were not seen in the survival academy. What the hell is it? All skills came out as expected, but… If I throw in one more skill I don’t know, where will it go?

You didn’t accidentally throw another game status window, did you?

“If you are going to throw a status window, ask me to throw something like a morale trait or skill…”

If you want to survive in the Survival Academy where the Outer Magician is spread, everyone wants you to acquire a skill that is deceptive enough to make people say, “This is a bit…”. Something easy to write! Although production is a bit peculiar, it is difficult to use because it is a production-related skill.

Is there any other status window in the world that is so tasteless?

No, I’ll throw you something tasty as a mission reward.

Throws EX-level attributes or skills, throws shape-memory alloys, throws gun recipes… It seems like flint locks existed in Survival Academy, but… Isn’t it, a much older version? Was it anyway. I want you to give me something nice.

I turned around as I ran the futile hope circuit in my head.

I should hurry up and get ready.

Because there is not much time left until departure.

—————-

“Are you really leaving…”

After nearly a month of preparations for departure, today is the day to leave forever on an uninhabited island.

I stopped in the yard of the house and looked at the house. A house that I built myself and has been my home for a long time.

After we leave, it won’t be able to overcome the flow of time and will become an abandoned house. Maybe the person who will be drifting here next to me will be able to use it well. Rabbits will be covering the entire island by then.

Well…It’s none of my business.

Turn around. A boat floating on the beach in the distance. It was a boat made by referring to the days when boats were made to get out of the island a long time ago. Wouldn’t it be about the size of a sailboat? I’ve never seen a sailboat, so I don’t know if it’s really that big.

“John! Come fast!”

“Don’t run too much! If your head falls into the sea, you won’t be able to find it!”

“I know!”

Milia seemed really excited that she was going off the island. Since she has spent her entire life in a dark dungeon, is she looking forward to the world outside? She must live up to the expectations of the outside world.

She climbs the pre-made stairs to the deck. On her deck, Lenny was busy preparing her for departure. Lenny exclaimed as he was about to hoist the anchor when he saw me lazily walking on her deck.

“John! Help me quickly! No matter how much it is, it’s impossible for me to lift it alone!”

“I got it!”

Together, we pull up the anchor and check the condition of the sail. It’s not that I don’t have professional knowledge, but I have a feeling that it was made in a fist-fighting way, but I can’t help it.

At least it’s fortunate that there is a powerful power source that boasts more strength than a bear, right in front of you. I looked at Lenny, who volunteered to be my power source for the long voyage. Maybe it was because the weather was hot or because I was constantly sweating from work, so my body was exposed more blatantly than usual, giving off a sensual vibe.

Perhaps noticing my gaze, Lenny looked me incredulously with her eyes and opened her mouth.

“Have you got anything on my face?”

“…Kheuheum, is your body okay? I’m going to have to pedal hard from now on…”

“Oh yes yes. It’s okay it’s okay Don’t worry, Karina-sama decided to use magic in case of emergency. It’s more about direction than that. Does anyone know which direction the land is?”

“…To some extent I guess.”

“Really?”

The direction in which the shipwrecks came was always the same, so there must be a new island or land on that side. Or guess by seeing the distance written on the status window decrease. The real problem is whether the wheel I created after trial and error works properly. If you don’t change direction properly, you can become a ghost ship.

I did set up various devices to prepare for that, though. I don’t really want to write

“Then I will go to the helm.”

“Eh. I need to prepare again…”

I turned and headed for the helm. Once upon a time, when I went up to the old-fashioned helm, which looked like something out of a movie starring pirates, Karina was leaning against the railing and looking at the sea.

Karina turned her head and grinned as I approached.

It looks like a scene from a pictorial.

“Welcome. Are you all ready?”

“We will be leaving soon.”

“Can we arrive safely?”

At those words, when I met Karina’s eyes, I saw her trembling eyes.

Come to think of it, Karina was washed up on an uninhabited island because her ship was wrecked. She can only cry because she is afraid of sailing. I quietly put my hand on her shoulder and said.

“We can arrive safely. Don’t worry too much.”

“Isn’t it?”

Karina laughed helplessly.

I forced myself to smile and turned around.

“Since we will be leaving soon, I recommend resting in a safe place. It’s dangerous on deck.”

“Yes. John. See you at mealtime.”

Karina disappeared under her helm. Are you leaving soon?

I leaned on her wheel and watched the swaying sea.

The endless sea.

Will we be able to reach the shore?

What is going on on the land that we arrived at with difficulty?

Unresolved questions are waiting for me.

“John! Ready!”

“Unfold the sails!”

Let’s put aside doubts and think about the immediate task.

As always.

So our first ship, the Wilson, set sail.
