Like a whirling wheel
If Decca did something good, it was bringing Aurea, a horse from Peru. To be precise, Aurea, left behind by Peru, ran after Deca on her own accord, but anyway. Peru rode on a Rottweiler and climbed onto the Golden Ship, barely even starting the engine before collapsing. Aurea stayed by Peru’s side, weeping as if worried about her master.
Seeing Peru groaning on the bed, Hilde said a word.
“I think I will die before reaching Claudia. Shouldn’t we get a memorandum in advance?”
You pretend to be harmless and say harsh things. The regressor also reacted nervously.
“Stop saying ominous things! You don’t die that easily.”
“No~. I know because ‘I’ have a good understanding of healing arts, but Peru’s body seems to be in a very dangerous state? This cannot be healed even with divine power.”
Tyr responded lightly to the word that she was divine power, but Hilde was not a fool to reveal that she knew how to use her divine power in front of a vampire. As far as she was concerned, she spoke quietly.
“Peru looks fine right now, but his energy is tangled, right? It’s because it’s stuffed with homunculus. Grafting that replaces the body with other powers is a type 2 contraindication. If you do it even once, you will not be able to return to your body with divine power.”
Healing by divine power is restoration. However, if a part of the body is replaced with power, as in Peru, restoration is impossible. Hilde, who was once a paladin, saw through the fact and made a de facto declaration of a time limit.
However, the regressor didn’t think much of it.
“It’s okay. There must be someone who can cure Jannokhoeju.”
“Treatment? Are there any saints? No, if you commit a taboo, even a saint can’t fix it?”
“I am not a saint. She is righteous.”
“Of… line?”
Hilde tilted her head. It has to be. Jiseon and Yoseon. Like all human beings, I, who is good at mind reading, can only think of two Taoists. She was no different from Hilde, who was in charge of a country’s intelligence department.
She is more righteous than him. A saint and divine power openly exist, but is it a freshman who heals people? Something is weird
“Is that strange~? Among the freshmen I know, there is no Uiseon? Wouldn’t that be too much to confuse?”
“I guess so.”
‘The reason she is called her righteous line is because the future is yet to come. She wouldn’t be called so without the seven wars that brought her fame. But, I know She is who she is. If someone is injured, I will treat them regardless of the type.’
Come to think of it, it seems that she also mentioned Uiseon when she was making medicine in the abyss. It’s a freshman that doesn’t exist yet. You mean only regressors know? After all, it’s good to have a comeback. I also know information that others do not know.
Unlike me, who was mind-reading, Hilde had doubts about the regressor’s information. She asked, as Hilde grumbled, but she analyzed the regressor sharply in her heart.
“How on earth do you know information that even ‘me’, who was the head of a country’s intelligence bureau, doesn’t know~. That’s too suspicious. Shay, what the hell are you?”
“Think whatever you want.”
“Yes. Okay. ‘I’ think what I want~.”
Ignoring Hilde who was sulking like a child, the regressor glanced at Tyr.
‘… However, if there is one problem, it is Tyrkanjaka… Well, there won’t be any problem. Uiseon is a vampire, but unlike Tyrkanjaka, he moves alone.’
What? Uiseon’s true identity was a vampire? No, a vampire that sucks people’s blood and treats people? Does that make sense?
… Is there anything you can’t do? Because even humans who eat animals have a job called a veterinarian. It’s not like I’m doing something grandiose enough to be called righteous line.
Aji, who was yawning profusely, whined as she hit her floor with her tail.
“Doggy. I’m bored. Woof woof.”
“Play around with words and bullying as usual.”
“Bruise. I have a clue I don’t bother you.”
“Does he say that he is bored right now?”
Where did you sell your eyes? That’s why they are beasts.
But for Aji, the trip where people died at random was a bit harsh. A little change of atmosphere would be necessary. She doesn’t have much chance to stay here.
When the next full moon comes… Even if you don’t like Aji, you will fight the king of wolves. Well, with this power, even the king of wolves would be no problem. If it’s necessary, he can get help from other countries, and if it’s necessary, there are vampires.
“Let’s go out on deck for a minute. Because I also want to ventilate.”
“Dump!”
Excited Aji suddenly jumped out of his seat and got up. I opened the door to the outside and stepped out onto the deck.
The wind blows hard. The golden ship moved as it did then, dissolving everything it touched under its feet. Thanks to the decomposition, not the crushing, the movement of the golden ship was quiet.
Can this ship go to sea… No, that would be overkill
What is the sea? Boats are used on lakes and rivers.
“Bruise….”
Aji is already staring blankly at the scenery outside with her feet up beside her deck. If you’re going to stare blankly, you’re alone. I don’t know why you brought me here.
No, more than that, whenever he gets on a ride, he puts his front paws on the window and sticks his head out. Can it be a habit?
I was grumbling inside, but Aji blankly started talking to her.
“Humans, fight each other.”
“It’s because there is no other person to fight with other than the same person.”
“Mung, that’s right. Beast, write it down. So humans fight each other.”
After the military government organized the military department, an operation to eradicate harmful tides was launched. Many people died along the way, but they achieved considerable results, and there were almost no dangerous animals in the inhabited areas of the military.
The nations are grotesque countries where drank golden glasses roam, so the animals have lost their place to live. Except for a few animals that are good for pastoralism, such as horses and sheep, they all left the land.
Aji said weakly.
“… So, bruises. I can’t help Because you are human.”
But that is only part of it. Beasts still live in the southern part of the country, or in lands as vast as these Mist Mountains. More than anything.
“Not necessarily. There are wolves.”
“Bruise….”
As if comforting, Aji turned his head again and looked into the distance. Why do you keep looking at what there is to see? See you too.
As I put my hand on the edge of the deck and looked away, I finally knew what Aji was looking at.
“Isn’t that Claudia? We are almost there.”
Certainly, it’s hard to take your eyes off of that scenery.
Clouds are pouring down from the sky like a waterfall. Clouds that had fallen from high in the sky broke and scattered as they approached the ground, spreading out like the hem of a country girl’s skirt.
Clouds are water, but they block the sunlight. Thanks to that ambiguous grace, only low grasses grow thickly on the ridge where the cloud falls touches. Such grass becomes supper for sheep and goats. A herd of white sheep wandering over the green table is indistinguishable from the fragments of broken clouds.
As if the gods are real, the landscape is awe-inspiring just by looking at it.
Old people looked at that scene and named it the Sky Road or the Stairway to Heaven.
The Sea of Mischief beyond the Mist Mountains. A seahorse lives there.
The ancient sea that humans cannot even touch. Monsters swim in the deep and distant abyss that humans, who can only see the surface covered by one layer, cannot dare to fathom.
Harassment. The reason why humans, who are said to be the rulers of the land, never went to the sea.
In the sea, the king of beasts took no human form. Humans are the dominant species on the ground, and cannot have any influence in the deep sea. Haejin, those giants that wander the distant sea live quietly in that sea.
However, in the relatively shallow waters of the sea, the sea chest is well exposed. Tsunami waves created by sea scars are not uncommon, and the shadows of sea scars are shimmering in the distance. There is no good day when the water is foggy after splashing around in the vast sea as a bathtub.
The rising mist has two futures. Either it sinks again and becomes part of the sea, or it rises and becomes a cloud. Most choose the former path, but the rest is enough to create a cloud.
It does not reach the realm of the sky, but the low cloud that makes it dark above his head rides the wind and heads for the continent. The wind embracing the clouds hits the curtain of the earth and stagnates for a moment, but before long it flows down through a gap in the middle.
That is Cloud Village. Claudia.
A village of humans hiding in the pouring clouds… It’s work
“By the way, Ahji. What is that?”
“Bruised?”
“Something is hanging from the waterfall. What is that?”
There is something in the waterfall of clouds. I furrowed my eyebrows and looked back at the massive, moving structure.
“… A waterwheel?”
It looks like a giant waterwheel. It seems that someone put into practice the reckless idea of installing a waterwheel on a waterfall instead of running water. If it were water, the waterwheel would have broken under the pouring weight, but fortunately the water in that waterfall is in the form of a cloud. The watermill was fine.
In other words, there is not enough power to turn the water wheel. Clouds may not be weightless, but they cannot be compared to water. There is no way a waterwheel that big can turn around.
However, the waterwheel turns.
Lightning strikes from the clouds. Crackling lightning strikes at the interface between the waterwheel and the waterfall. It is not even a layered cloud, but an ominous energy rises menacingly and then subsides.
It’s like static electricity, but at that scale, it’s no different from thunder. Every time the light flashes, something different from the clouds flows along the waterwheel. It must be the thunder that held its breath, not the cloud, that turned that wheel.
It’s the first thing I see… I had read Memories of Maximilien and Peru. It was not difficult to guess the identity.
“That’s a wheelbarrow.”
The wheel that Maximilien introduced to the nations. The source, and the huge power that moves Claudia.
Once upon a time, the Cloud Village, where sheep were raised hidden in the clouds… After a certain challenge, it seems that he has obtained tremendous power.
After admiring the scene for a while, I noticed a series of groups approaching. It was closer to us than Claudia’s, and at this speed it looked like it would be there in a few minutes.
“I don’t have time to admire. It looks like it came from over there.”
“Bung! Here it is, here!”
“You could be an enemy, so why are you so excited?”
Well, if it were Aji, all humans would be friends, so it wouldn’t matter.
