Chapter 30: 30 “Captain, where are you now?”

Pretending to be Leo, I visited the captain to find my location . The storm managed to calm down, but we got caught up and we were separated from the ship on which Leo was boarding, and we were taking a lot of time . The sun is beginning to settle down . It was a level of storm that couldn’t be overturned, but it was an empire’s envoy, and on board were Imperial Navy-trained soldiers . I managed to get over it somehow .

“It’s probably the waters of the Principality of Albatro . I didn’t overturn, but it was washed away considerably . It might be more correct to say that I was pulled rather than washed away . That storm . “It’s obviously abnormal . ” “When it comes to monsters?” “Yes, I guess . I’m a sailor from my grandfather’s generation, but it looks just like the sea dragon storm I heard from you . ” “What kind of thing is this storm?” “Literally, a sea dragon causes a storm . Moreover, he seems to be pulling the ship more and more in his direction . Even after surviving the storm, there is a sea dragon at the point where he was pulled . It’s a scary story just to ask a sailor, because sea dragons are among the best monsters living in the sea . Looking at them means death . “

Well, the storm we hear from the story and the storm just before . The features are consistent . Does this mean that there is a sea dragon in this area? If so, it’s a big problem . In the first place, a dragon is a monster that repeats an active period and a dormant period . And the cycle is overwhelmingly dormant . A dragon that has been dormant for hundred years has also been reported . Long sleep, short activity . That is a creature called a dragon . The same is true of the sea dragon . You have to look at the records, but it seems that the sea dragon, which was dormant around here, has entered the active phase . The problem is that the Principality of Albatro is active in maritime trade . It is far from the empire, but still trades widely with other nations . If a sea dragon appeared in that area, how much damage would it take? I knew that, and the Principality of Albatro would have been investigating it confidentially, but from this feeling it seemed that she touched the dragon’s scales . Probably the cause of the storm is the Eva . That storm . I’m not alive anymore . Oh, poor you .

“Well . . . then you don’t need to stay long . I’m worried about my brothers too . Immediately go to Rondine . ” “Oh, hey! Look at that!”

One of the sailors speaks when trying to give directions . When I had a bad feeling and looked there, as expected, the wreckage of the ship was flowing .

“Is it a Principality ship . . . ” “I guess you were caught in a storm like us . “

A middle-aged knight whispers in a whisper to me trying to end it . Tran sl a t ed b y jp m t l . ｃom

“His Highness . . . Prince Leonard will definitely order a search for the survivors . . . ” “No such time . Maybe there is a sea dragon here? Only limited to leaving quickly . . . ?” I know that, but you have to behave like Prince Leonard, and it’s a big deal if it’s known that the ambassador, the representative of the nation, has been replaced, despite being a twin . . . “! The seafarer was upset by the storm just before . I won’t notice my discomfort . . . ” Probably you can’t stop and you don’t know what Rondine is saying . . . ? “

The opinion of the middle-aged knight was plausible . Oh, right . But behaving like a Leo means doing what I don’t want to do the most . There is no merit in salvage in this case . In the first place, the Principality of Albatro is not an ally or a close nation . It’s ridiculous to rescue the sea dragons that might be nearby for such a country . We are not free . We have already lost days . If you rescue here, your arrival in Rondine will be delayed . It doesn’t matter if Leo arrives first . Anyway, he’s Arnold, and Arnold is an incompetent prince . If you start friendly negotiations with Rondine on your own, you will be suspected . After all I want to go to Rondine . Even though Elna is nearby, I’m worried that Leo could play me straight . And if there are any survivors in the rescue operation, you have to stop by the Principality of Albatro . That is the most troublesome . Does Albatro obediently release the Imperial Prince who knew the secret he wanted to keep secret? I decided to stay until the problem was solved . In that case, Leo and I will be swapped for a long time . No way .

“The survivors are probably desperate and look here soon . ” “Look! People are grabbed by debris! You’re alive!” ” . . . “

A middle-aged knight heard what was obvious . I can’t do it if I come here . I can only help . Why are there more and more problems in front of me! Oh already! Curse if there is a god!

“Get off the rope! Rescue immediately! Watch out for the surroundings and look for other survivors!”

There was a dark cloud in my mind, skipping Leo-ish instructions . I want to run away with Arnold right away . Not scary . Just fight if the sea dragon comes . But that would be very cumbersome . Probably it will be a confusing situation that I can not deal with alone . That alone must be avoided . But Leonard, a good guy, doesn’t allow it .

Tr ans l a t e d by Ｊp ｍtl . ｃ o ｍ “We rescued the survivors! According to the story, there are still more survivors!”

I was almost unconscious without thinking of the words of the crew who came to report . A large number of survivors means more time to stay in the waters, and more space for the survivors . In addition, food and water calculations will be required .

“Is the Principality of Albatro a plague god . . . ?” “Take care of the words . . . !” “Can you not say . . . ? Oh, it’s already . . . ! Worst . . . . . . . . . !” “If Leonardo knows he was rescuing in a dangerous situation, he would be praised and would not degrade Prince Leonardo . ” “I’ve been fighting for the supremacy of the south for a long time . Are you praised for saving such an opposition . . . ?” “My empire has nothing to do with the struggle for the south, and we are a great nation . If you are satisfied, please decide . ”

Prompted by a middle-aged knight, I sighed deeply, never raised my face, and sighed down again . Oh, I don’t like it anymore . Is there a way to survive without losing Leo’s reputation? No, not really . Leo will definitely help . That’s all . First of all, if you can make a profit, I’m an emperor without my help . He is worthy of help, but now he is remorseful for his good character and reputation .

“Captain . Rescue the survivors . ” “Ssanity? There may be a sea dragon here! If you are attacked during the rescue operation, there will be no lump, and monsters will swarm in the corpse soon! Even monsters other than sea dragons are a threat . “” The storm has gone . Sea dragons may have been satisfied . Normal monsters do not approach where powerful monsters were . Opponents are sea dragons . “I think you’re fine . ” “But the sun is going down! Rescue work in the dark is dangerous! You may use the light to call a sea dragon!” I’m sorry, the captain, this is the order of a pledge ambassador, we will use all possible hands to rescue the survivors of the Principality of Albatro . Survival “I don’t want to miss anyone . ” ” . . . I heard the rumors, but you’re a genuine person . I can’t approve as a captain to take care of this ship, but I can’t help but order from you . Let’s go “

The captain breaks as if he gave up . I understand my feelings . I agree with you . This is ridiculous . But this is Leo . I can’t help it . So don’t look at me with such remorseful eyes . Thus, on our way to Rondine, for some reason we began to be too foolish to rescue the waters where sea dragons might be .
