This is our residence.
The men finally noticed Rody was a woman after arriving at the island.
“Hey, I want to talk somewhere less crowded for a bit.”
“Huh?”
A companion is abducted by mages from another world and forced to train.
However, we’ve barely spoken.
Could this be… a confession of love!
“Yes, I’d love to ♪”
The man eagerly follows Rody.
Without caring about the islanders’ eyes.
In a secluded spot.
The man was disappointed.
He was magnificently dejected.
“Rodi, you brought him?”
“Yes, Heath ♪”
She got so close, you’d think she’d hug him and demand praise.
Heath… offering his head to the collaborators who let us escape this far.
A gentle pat. Damn, I’m envious.
I returned before the morning sun rose.
And confide in Rody that the islanders were hiding something.
Today, I summoned the leaders of each small faction.
And we decided to carry out our plan in several days.
Under the noses of the islanders.
We commandeered a ship and headed for our paradise beyond this island.
Woohoo ♪ Woohoo ♪
—The Hunter and the Lion
Singing anime songs on the ship.
“To everywhere ~~~”
“Yeah ♪ Yeah ♪”
“You in the scope ~~~”
“Hai ♪ Hai ♪”
The choreography… somehow synchronized.
Is this what they call youthful sensibility? Or what?
The next day.
A report from the watch: a ship silhouette in the distance.
Rustle, rustle
I should have broken the rudder again.
Well, a shot from behind. Probably a test shot for measurement.
“Full rudder! Everyone to battle stations! If you don’t want to become sea scum! Turn the wind magic into sails!”
“Yes, yes!”
We had informed them about the pursuing ship.
And prepared for battle during our escape.
But only a few could move immediately.
Sigh, the future looks bleak.
We have to conserve our food, too.
Splash! Boom!
Two water columns erupt to the port side.
So close. We almost got hit.
“Return fire—!”
Fireballs from fire magic fly from the stern.
“Go get ’em!”
The enemy ship also has mages.
Not some hastily trained ones like the otherworlders.
I don’t know how many mages from this world are on board, but…
The fireballs are nullified by water balls and wind before they hit the ship.
“Wha— What is that!?”
“Don’t stop attacking!? Attack them so they can’t bombard us!?”
Amateurs in combat.
Don’t react to every move the enemy makes.
I want to take over the helm, but
Leaving it to someone who can’t even use detection magic properly.
If we run aground, it’ll be a disaster.
Boom!
“Waaaaahhhhh”
A near miss.
The ship lists heavily to the right.
“You bastard!”
I spin the rudder with all my might.
And somehow manage to return it to its original position.
With the speed we’ve gained. I’m afraid of capsizing, but
If that happens, I have Possession Ability.
Possession Ability isn’t a panacea.
It brings the best results against surprise attacks. But…
Well, for now, let’s focus on escaping.
“Waaaaah. Eeekkkk”
Cannonballs rain down.
A bad hit.
Screams from those who didn’t participate in the battle cry out that seawater is flooding the ship.
“Seal the holes with magic! And magic the water out! If we lose any more speed, we all die! Hurry!?”
We were forced to steer southwest.
And got caught by the reconnaissance of Brain and Izul’s navy.
This is bad. Really.
And the islanders, how could they possibly corner us like that?
They could be attacked too, you know.
Boom! Boom!
“Eeeekkkk!”
“What are you doing!? What happened to returning fire!? Shoot back already!?”
“Yeessss!”
We were also attacked by Brain and Izul’s navy.
And, battered, we changed course north.
And somehow, miraculously, we reached an uninhabited island.
“Ghhkk”
“Blaarghh”
“Uckkkk”
Seasickness. A few of us, including me, endured it.
But the others, upon reaching land, immediately rushed into the bushes.
And vomited their guts out without bothering to lower their voices.
Once things settled down, some kept watch on the horizon.
Some went to procure food.
Others split up to explore the island, truly uninhabited? And our long, long day finally ended.
“T-tired…”
The otherworlders are down.
Rody is clearly accumulating fatigue too, but
She’s pushing herself to have sex with me.
“Rest today.”
“Whaaa—”
I soothe Rody.
And continue investigating the island.
There might be oversights due to fatigue.
I use my Astral Body to float around the places I’ve searched, clockwise.
And go to the place where something seemed to be with my physical body.
“Shh.”
“Kya?!”
I took down a giant lizard.
It was camouflaged.
If I had used detection magic, I would have noticed it.
But I haven’t told the otherworlders.
So that I can have a one-sided game if they betray me.
Ideally, I’d like to make them my dream collaborators, though…
Human emotions are difficult and won’t become obedient without magic.
Ahhh, I want to make Rody’s child soon and increase the number of obedient ones~ ♪
I process the giant lizard.
And use its fangs and claws as the spearheads of primitive spears and as fishing hooks.
The skin can be tanned, or used as a raw cord to wrap things.
“Fuuu~~, I guess I should sleep soon too… zzz”
No night watch tonight.
Well, with no lights and low magic power, it should be fine.
…Just in case, I’ll set up a barrier and sleep.
“Goodnight.”
Zzzzzzz.
