Chapter 111 – Charge Into Borodin, The Elven Country
I woke up to a good morning.
The ship continued to move even while we were asleep, heading towards the Elven country. It was comfortable without any shaking. As expected of the “ship loved by the sea”.
As I got up from the bed, I heard a knock on the door.
“Mm~, this must be Skor. Come in.”
“Are you awake, Rasty-san?”
“Yeah. I just woke up.”
Slowly opening the door, Skor entered the room. In the end, I had her sleep in the next room last night. Or rather, there wasn’t enough space for two people to sleep, so it was impossible.
“Good morning. It seems we have finally arrived in Borodin!”
“Really? We arrived so quickly. That’s right, let’s go to the deck together.”
“Wow, really? You’re going with me?”
“Of course.”
With those words, Skor happily pulled my hand. She seemed to be in a good mood.
We directly went up to the deck.
The scenery gradually came into view.
There was a large harbor there, and it was already bustling. …Oh, the city extends so far back. Huh, were there such big buildings before?
It’s been ten years, so it’s bound to change, but to think it would develop this much――!
So, this is the Elven country, “Borodin.”
As I was admiring such things ―― suddenly, we were attacked from the harbor.
“Don’t come here!!” “Unauthorized entry!!” “It’s an Imperial ship!!” “Don’t mess with us, you b**t*rds!!” “Don’t let the empire enter Borodin!!” “Sink them!!”
“Wha, Eh… Eh?!?”
Projectiles like stones and arrows were raining down on us.
This is bad, really bad.
Sensing something was wrong, Strelka came up and turned pale.
“W-What is this?!”
“I don’t know either. Anyway, we’re not welcome here!”
“…Kuh! No matter how strong the Tethys is, it will sink when it’s time. Let’s turn back for now.”
“Understood. Please do that.”
The ship did not enter the harbor and veered away from Borodin. …Seriously? I thought we finally arrived, but this is what happens?
“Th-this is strange! Elves don’t get angry like that.”
“But they did. They even threw stones and trash at us…”
“Uu… I’m sorry.”
“It’s not Skor’s fault. Hmmm, I wonder what the cause could be.”
I try to think back.
If I remember correctly… I feel like the word “empire” was being thrown around. Could it be that something happened between Borodin and the empire?
Ah… I remember now!!
The clue I was looking for was right in front of me.
It’s Skor!!!
Yes, the Elven country “Borodin” has lost its Holy Maiden, who could be called the symbol of the country. Skor had gone missing, and probably the empire was being suspected or something like that.
“What should we do…”
Skor was completely teary-eyed.
I put my hand on her shoulder.
“Skor, don’t worry. We’ll probably be able to enter the country.”
“Eh…?”
She herself seems to be the least aware of it all.
You’re an Elf and a Holy Maiden, right!?
Well, never mind.
I gave instructions to Strelka.
“Strelka, head back to Borodin once again.”
“B-But… if we get attacked, the ship will sink, you know!?”
“Trust me.”
“I understand. It seems that Rasty-sama have a plan.”
Strelka steered the ship manually.
The ship heads for Borodin once more.
The ship’s hull shook violently as it changed direction. In the midst of that, Havamar woke up.
“Wh-what’s going on… big brother!”
“I’ll explain the situation later. Havamar, hold on tight to the ship.”
“Unya!?”
A heavy jolt struck— we’re being bombarded. Wait, just how unwelcome are we? We’re completely being treated as enemies.
I caught Skor and Havamar as they tumbled towards me from the impact.
“Are you both okay?”
“Y-yes…!”
“Y-yeah…”.
It seems that neither of them is injured.
Alright, we’ll continue to charge into Borodin just like this—!!
