From The Strongest Job of Dragon Knight, To The Beginner Job Carrier, Somehow, The Heroes are Depend
Lesson 8: The Knights' Situation
Cecil walked inside the communication aisle of the Divine Tree and was stunned.
"Hey, what's this..."
Because the sights I had never seen before were spreading.
Look at yourself like that, or an accelerator nearby will call out with his eyes around him.
"From Cecil's surprise, I knew it wasn't like this from the beginning."
"Of course! If it's true, it's prettier, smells better... it's such a wonderful place! 」
The communication corridor in our own memory is a beautiful tree path marked by bright brown and bright wood, made to slice out of the inner walls of the Divine Tree.
Wrapped in the refreshing smell of the trees, it was the path to climb in a calm mood.
However, the contact passage is now filled with holes where the dead color is just noticeable or unbroken.
The road itself felt like it was shriveling.
"I've never withered before, and because the Divine Tree has automatic repair capability in the first place, it can't remain so worn out... how could it? What the hell is going on, Dad? 」
To the question Cecil raised with surprise, Sidonius has first returned the words with a sober face.
"As you can see from the surprise of our children, it has never happened before, so let me explain it in turn. In the meantime, the withered state of the Divine Tree continues up to the path of the upper layers. The road to the upper echelons is no longer satisfactorily usable"
Sidonius says as he touches the tree path, which was close by.
Its path, which is stair-like, falls the moment his hand touches it, polluting and becoming a piece of wood.
"Sixty percent of them are in this brittle state, and there are worse places to look. There are still some parts of us that survive, but it's not going to be very dangerous. As you know, magical stability is difficult to activate, so it's impossible to ascend using wind-based magic."
"Hmm, the inability to activate stabilization doesn't change either the inside or the outside."
Daisy, who was on his shoulder, also nods back at Axel's such questions.
"Even if I temporarily suck the magic out of the Divine Tree, it will spring next. That's where the boulder god tree is... but this time it's making things tight."
"Yeah. As a means to get up, is it about this rope ladder? Because the little lift by the pulley you have there can't stand the weight of people. Because it's so exquisite that it carries small things."
At the end of Sidonius' gaze was one rope ladder draped from the far upper layers.
Inside the Divine Tree there is a communication passage cut out of the wall, so it looks pretty hard to use.
Also in front of it is a small plate fitted with a rope draped from the top.
It was made quite a while ago. By the time Cecil was around, the aisle was alive, so it was something that wasn't supposed to be used much.
"Though it carries small goods, now, you're being used"
"Yeah, the upper layers are also dead, so there's always a risk of falling trees though. … has to be used because it is necessary to deliver supplies"
"Yeah? Delivering supplies means... that the Institute of the Magic Science Guild is on the Divine Tree, but there are still people out there? 」
●
Second, when I uttered the question I thought, Sidonius shook his head vertically with a serious look.
"Yes. Dozens of guilders are running in the upper echelons to find out what caused this. In addition, not only the upper but also the lower levels, including Lord Daisy, but also Tree Physicians and Pharmacists, have called outside guests to investigate confidentially with help."
"Is that why Daisy was in this city?"
"That's right. That's how you got on the request of the Magic Science Alliance."
"... and the investigation of Lord Daisy and the Alliance of Magic Sciences revealed that this happened with toxic substances caused by external factors."
"Toxic substances? 」
Daisy has answered.
"There was a bit of a slight mutation or a powerful toxin in it that I didn't think I could do naturally. He's like a virus or a creature."
"Right. You said the head of the Magic Science Guild that you don't think you can do it naturally, but even if you try to create it artificially, you're in the Magic Science Guild, a complex poison to a level that even a professional" senior dispensary "dealing with poisons can't handle. The method of manufacture is unknown, and I want to think of poison born of a transcendent mutation."
Sidonius says as he looks up at the tree.
"Anyway, you know it's a strong poison."
"Yes. They say that if you try to formulate it, you're sure to lose many lives. It's very poisonous. Wherever it came from, whether it's a natural phenomenon, whether someone did it intentionally, they're still under investigation, though."
Daisy snorts too, who is on his shoulder in Sidonius' words.
"That's why. I was on the move to find out what was going on, my best friend."
"Yes. Lord Daisy has asked the lower level to create a lab to serve as a research base, and we're working on it.
"When I say lab, I recycled a small abandoned building, dedicated to my research, but it's not very big. The lab upstairs is bigger."
"But Lord Daisy alone has produced the same amount of research as the Magic Science Guild. It's helpful. Besides, we have people looking around."
"Oh, no, Daisy was paying for it"
That's why we met.
"Why were you doing that? 」
"Well, my best friend knows, but I'm sensitive to people's signs. The only reason I'm looking around is because I can't concentrate on research when I have other people, and I'm taking a mood swing walk in my free time."
Essentially, Daisy is alert when other than the human she sees approaches.
Even during the war, when people approached the lab they had built, they were distracted. It is not clear that people will pay to conduct research efficiently. It just seems that's not all the circumstances.
"... well, sometimes I couldn't get people through."
I keep saying that.
"He said he couldn't get people through originally... was that even the arrangement? 」
"Oops. Leaving aside that I care about people's signs, in the first place, I ended up with the Magic Science Guild and the Knights of the Divine Forest that I couldn't let people in."
Daisy looked at Sidonius as she said it. Then he looked at the aisle entrance as he touched the worn out contact passage.
"Right. Because it is dangerous for things that have dried up and fallen.... and if the external factor was a hypothetically malicious organism. If you're still alive and trying to harm this tree again, you're not going to find yourself desperately searching for a solution."
"You're very cautious.... Is that why you don't hang the rope ladder on the outside? 」
In response to my inquiry, Sidonius returns a positive reply.
"Basically. We only keep it inside so that we don't know how bad the situation is. Since the exterior has uneven bark and wind making it difficult to use the ladder, it would not have been that efficient if it had been installed."
It did feel like I looked up nearby, and there were thick torso blown branches on the outer surface of the Divine Tree, as well as traces of pruning it, and it was wavy.
It would be as difficult to hang a ladder as it is inside.
"There's no point in doing this until you put aside the wind and the alarm."
Saying, Sidonius nodded with a smile.
"That's the thing. Lord Axel is quick to understand, so thank you.... because we need to be more careful than we can say is a simple natural phenomenon. The Knights of the Kamiyashi hearsay will get worse but I can't hold my belly on my back because I don't contact them beforehand as part of it and some merchants and others I can't trust have driven them back without question"
After I said that much, but Sidonius looked at Daisy with a sorry look on his face.
"... I find it very distressing that Lord Daisy has been involved in that bad review..."
To the words of the Knights Commander, Ha, and Daisy shows her teeth and laughs.
"It's a reputation, I told you I wouldn't have a problem with it, Captain Knights. They think I'm a stranger from the beginning anyway, and it's no big deal. Rumors will be about to fly with a tail on it, but if you care about that, you can't do anything. I'd rather be thankful to have fewer humans trying to get closer to me."
Daisy says with a grin, but he doesn't seem convinced as Sidonius,
"... As I said before, it is the policy of the residents of Kamiyashi City to live the life as usual without as much anxiety as possible, so the opening of the petition will come after everything is over, but still, when it is resolved, we will do everything in our power to restore our reputation... No, to further enhance it, the Knights of Kamiyashi"
"Good man, but stubborn. Hey, the Knights Commander."
"Thanks to Lord Daisy, the analysis of poison, of course, is very much under way to restore the Divine Tree, and if we don't, we won't be able to see our faces."
"... somehow. Everyone in the outer perimeter of the city seemed normal. In the center, it was complicated..."
Just listening to Sidonius and Daisy, but I don't know from the side, there's a lot going on, and it looks like it's going to be tough.
Yeah, that's when I thought.
"Knight Commander! As I was told, we are ready for the Fifth Battalion of Supplies."
With such a voice, faces in light armor came into the contact passage.
Somehow, they hold huge leather bags together.
Seeing it, Sidonius exhaled deeply.
"Hmm... is that right? Do you want to carry it again?"
"Again, you carry this many times? 」
"Yeah, because it's one of the big problems that has arisen since the Divine Tree happened like this. The lack of supplies on the tree. It was just a few hours ago."
Said, I just met him. Reminds me of Sidonius.
"Earlier, when Sidonius came, it was sweaty, maybe because of this"
To the words, Sidonius grinned bitterly.
"I'm sorry to show you the ugliness. There are over 700 meters to the top, but there were only a few of them, including me, in the Knights of the Kamiyashi, with the strength, skills and equipment to climb out that safely. Plus, today, one of the guys who was supposed to do a transport mission collapsed, so I did it with help. … the lift does not carry the quantity satisfactorily"
He says as he touches the large leather bag that the knights have carried by a few.
"Even for those on the tree, living supplies are absolutely necessary… so I have to deliver them"
As he spoke, Sidonius tried to carry a huge leather bag. but
"- Hey..."
Flirted, kneeling.
My breath is getting rough. Look at it and speak to him like the knights around him panicked.
"Please don't force me, Knights Commander......! Every day, every day, I keep going back and forth, and in many cases, I keep coming and going ten times for nearly another month......!! The others are so crushed that the Knights Commander has a good night's rest..."
to such a line of labor, but Sidonius shook his neck to the side.
"But it doesn't mean it won't be delivered. It is the people of the Magic Science Guild above, and those who wish to restore the Divine Tree, who are fighting. You'll have to make up for it more times than you can have less. It's the only way..."
Sounds like some kind of luggage I have to carry, even if I can't. So,
"If you don't mind, I'll help you, too, okay? If it's a loading problem, we should be able to help."
That's what I said.
It feels like I'm listening to you earlier, and he wants to carry the quantity for now.
Then it's an easy job to do.
That's what I suggested.
「 …… 」
Hearing that, Sidonius stopped moving for a few seconds to think about something. overhead, and after seeing the rope ladder, turn to me,
"... to the upper layer of the Divine Tree, there are seven hundred meters at height. Therefore, I appreciate your words, but I was wondering if it would be difficult to climb the ladder with your strength as a transporter..."
I'm going to say that.
Well, it's certainly the right opinion for the haulier opponent.
But in the middle of his words like that, there was a voice to block.
"Ah, Father. At least Mr. Axel is a few steps stronger than us."
"What... what...? 」
"Oh. That's enough to move faster than us, and if you look at it physically, I think it's better than a senior position in the combat system."
Cecil, it's George.
Hearing their voices, Sidonius once again glanced at my hands and feet.
"No...... you do look like you're in a good mood...... no, but...... your life is in danger. Even if you have the strength to climb through, if you fall... it's not a matter of strength. Exposing you to such danger..."
Apparently, from earlier on, you're taking care of this life.
I appreciate the thought, though.
"Well, I was also responsible for my work as a haulier. There's nothing wrong with danger, Sidonius, because we know exactly what we're doing here."
To some extent, my judgment as a haulier has been learned by my senior (Marion) in transport.
That's a suggestion after thinking about it.
"Yes, yes. Around there, you don't have to worry, Uncle Sidonius. Even if it falls from that height, your husband will be fine."
"I don't seem to be trusted with the power of the accelerator, which is unfortunate... well, in case one falls, because then I think I'm useful and I hug it. I won't get that anxiety, Knights Leader."
Baselia and Saki also seem to be trying to dispel Sidonius's anxiety.
Some of their words or Sidonius' expression changed slightly.
"WOW... yes... is it? If you can ask for it, honestly, it is something I would very much like to ask for..."
"As I said first. I think I can help. If those supplies are good in a transport bag,"
It is only Sidonius who chooses.
I thought so and waited for a reply, he meditated his eyes for a few seconds and then thought,
"- So... it's hard to say it's a safe job, but may I sweeten your words and make a request, Lord Carrier Axel?"
"Oh. Copy that."
