“Indeed.”
Rosso nodded firmly and then called out to everyone.
“Thank you all for waiting! At last, with the power of sir Van, the ship is complete! This prototype ship is crucial for making the future of the kingdom brilliant! Consider it a great honor to be present at this moment!”
Hearing Rosso’s announcement, everyone cheered for the completion of the prototype ship.
Confirming this, Rosso raised one hand toward the ship.
“Launch the ship into the sea!”
“Yes, sir!”
Responding to Rosso’s command, many knights including Dee unfastened the chains holding the ship.
At the same time, the ship slowly began to slide into the sea.
Yes, yes. The launching ceremony operation on rails seems to have succeeded. The ship was smoothly drawn into the water and splashed down with force... and then stopped?
“...Seems the angle of the rails was a bit off.”
Havel calmly analyzed as he observed the ship half-submerged and stuck.
“What!? That’s an ominous start!”
Raising both hands, a scream of despair escaped. As the atmosphere turned awkward, Panamera quietly approached.
“...What’s the plan now?”
“Huh? Well, we have no choice but to push it out. We’ll slip a long pole underneath and use the principle of leverage...”
While quietly discussing this with Panamera, suddenly a hearty laugh rang out.
“Rest assured! This Dee is here for this!”
Turning toward the voice, Dee was inexplicably bare-chested, flexing his muscles. Then, he strode toward the ship. Everyone watched with wide eyes as Dee’s back disappeared, and then Ort took action.
“I-I’ll help too!”
Quickly, Ort removed his cloak and armor, took off his shirt, and revealed his bare upper body.
“Oh, Rear Guard Ort! Much appreciated!”
“Leave it to us!”
The two exchanged words and pressed their hands to the ship’s stern from both sides, ready to push.
Brute strength and mighty power, the dream collaboration.
Thinking this silly thought, we watched their manpower set sail operation. Their hands gripped tightly to push the super-heavy large ship. Muscles bulged, thick veins protruded. Watching that, we also tensed our shoulders.
“Hmph!”
“Ugh, aaaah!”
Dee and Ort applied their strength together. Immediately, the ship shook.
“It’s moving...!”
“What power is this!”
“Is this the strength of dragon slayers?”
Regardless of their affiliations, all the knights watched the pair’s joint effort with shining eyes. Maybe it was thanks to Dee’s legendary nickname. Everyone admired their actions without question, but if you think about it, consider this:
Could two humans really push out a large ship, likely weighing as much as a mid-sized demonic beast, just because it was on rails? No, there’s no way.
“...Are Dee and Ort even human?”
I couldn’t help but mutter that. After all, the ship was already mostly floating on the sea.
“...Could I have Rear Guard Dee?”
“No way.”
Panamera seemed to feel the same as me, his eyes wide as he said something outrageous. I denied it immediately, and Panamera laughed softly, watching Dee and Ort high-five.
“Well, of course. No one would give up such a subordinate.”
Panamera said with a wry smile. But I had to say one thing.
“No, Dee is family to me, so there’s nothing to give.”
“...I see. My apologies then.”
After I firmly conveyed my feelings, Panamera apologized seriously, which surprised me. Just then, beside the ship floating on the sea, a head popped up.
“Done then. I’ll check underwater now.”
“...Ah, Mr. Radavesta! Roger that!”
Completely forgetting the next task, I replied immediately when Radavesta confirmed the next step. We had Havel check on land, but planned to inspect underwater to ensure no differences with Fiesta Kingdom’s large ships.
While Radavesta investigated the underwater condition of the ship, a temporary staircase was installed on the pier so we could board the ship. Once on board, folding stairs would be attached, so this was just a temporary scaffold.
