Chapter 11 (1/2)
RAW:
Lately, I found myself translating while playing the opening song of a.s.sa.s.sination Cla.s.sroom Season 2 on loop.
Then I stop translating and cry in the corner…
I had cried over an anime but never over an opening song…
Here’s chapter 11. Now give me another hour to cry…
「Owowowowow…. Roxas… water…」
「Brother… Big Boss told me to keep you from drinking too much. Here’s the water」
The day after the banquet, the almost-dead-drunk Barbarossa lead the Pirates of the Round Table set sail to the north.
I took a bath after I finished drinking and eating, just to wash away all the dirt and tiredness.
After me, all my men took the bath and cleaned themselves except the still-hangover Barbarossa.
It seemed that there are no custom when entering the bath, they just wiped away their body with water.
Everyone felt great after coming out of the bath. After-bath drink… I wanted to drink some beer but I must refrain from doing so. But Barbarossa was gulping down the beer *GUBIGUBI* right now.
(TL: I’m still not comfortable translating sound effects)
Since the boat was swaying heavily, I kept the 『Room』 open. The bed was exclusive and no one was allowed to use it but me.
Next is the usual morning routine. Light exercise while enjoying the morning sun.
It’s possible to do acrobatic movements thanks to my raised physical ability.
I decided to make some breakfast since Roxas was busy tending Barbarossa.
Even so, I can’t make some fancy menu.
Ham and egg in white bread. And finish it with coffee. Then I grilled some fish and patch up some vegetable salad. It was a menu that I would made in my original world.
Luckily I have a certain coffee maker like those in convenient stores. I can drink delicious coffee everyday. Like a beer server, how the coffee was replenished is a mystery.
「Big Boss’ food are amazing!! This is the first time I eat a bread this soft!!」
「Big Boss! Seconds please!」
Since I gave you seconds, I’ll work you to the bone.
I made some sunny-side egg on toast as second servings.
Suddenly, I became their parent.
Nothing happened since morning to noon, and so the day pa.s.sed in peace. There’s nothing at all. It’s nice to have relaxing time like this.
I enjoyed this relaxing cruise for several days.
I can’t see any war vessels nor s.h.i.+ps so I practiced magic.
Paddle and Peddle taught me the fundamental of this world’s magic.
The concept is to connect to use mana inside the body to open the gate to『Spirit World』from this 『Material World』, then the energy is reconstructed and released as magic.
There are gates that are easy to open and there are gates that are difficult to open.
The recovery magic that I used is 『Light』 and few people are able to open it. It sounds difficult. That’s why people sort of wors.h.i.+ping them.
Meanwhile, the 『Gate of Darkness』 that demons uses are difficult to open as well.
The basic alements are fire, water, wind, and earth are obtained by talent and someone who can control them are mages.
Paddle had opened wind and water gates.
Peddle had opened wind and earth gates.
They had became excellent mages when Roxas recruited them.
The magic in the game didn’t use that kind of concept so the detail was not clear.
Meanwhile, the twins wanted to learn 『Wing』 but I don’t know how to teach them. The image is important. If you imagine yourself flying, will you fly? Should we try it?
I practiced magic by picturing the image in my free time. After finally succeeding making an image of a small spear, I tested it out by trying to hit a fish. It flew right into the bottom of the sea. This needs some MP.
As MP decreases, mental fatigue was piled up. So it’s better to save MP and avoid getting tired. It seemed that you will faint if you used up all your MP.
***
A vessel appeared on the map when practicing magic.
「A s.h.i.+p. It didn’t look like a war vessel, but where is it?」
The size of the s.h.i.+p mark made me understand the size to some extent, but it was neither a carabell nor a frigate.
「Let me climb up and look for a bit」
「Oh, okay」
I stopped the magic practice and let my MP recovered. Although the automatic recovery was fast, fatigue acc.u.mulates when concentrating. You can’t just recover your fatigue.
When a subordinate came down from the mast, he rushes to see us in panic.
「Big boss!! It’s a slave s.h.i.+p! And it has imperial emblem!」
Is it an empire’s slave s.h.i.+p? Should I destroy it? Depending on the number, slaves can be loaded on this s.h.i.+p. I can accommodate most of them with 『Room』.
「Barbarossa, come over here」
「What is it, Big Boss?」
「There’s an empire’s slave s.h.i.+p nearby. Prepare for battle」
「Osu! I understand!」
When Barbarossa went back to repeat the order, all of them worked really hard. They jumped from deck to deck and raised the speed to the slave s.h.i.+p.
The lazy ones don’t deserve to sit on the sofa.
