Chapter 066 (2/2)

What appeared there, was an unidentified gigantic object.

[]

「That unidentified object, what was it like?」

「Yes, it was an object like nothing I have ever seen before, and having no other way to express it, it seemed to be floating on the sea!」

「Hーn, could it be technology of mankind’s side. There’s also the chance that it’s something unique to the Metalio though.」

「More like, did they cross through the 『Sea of Farthest Ends』?」

「They’re seeking rescue, right? Doesn’t that mean that they weren’t let off safely?」

Saying that, Rokuna pondered.

Most likely, in Sancreed’s case, the talks would probably go in the direction of accepting them.

And Rokuna agreed with that.

If the other party are Metalios, for the time being, there was no possibility that they would be the Hero.

The fact that the Hero Summoning was done through the power of the God of Life’s power──that is, the fact that they weren’t Demi-Human was clear even from the books that Vermudol brought back from mankind’s territory.

In that case, the Metalio were most likely in true need of rescue.

「Well, the problem is……what did they come to do, isn’t it.」

To come here just because they wanted to come here, the Dark Continent……The 『Sea of Farthest Ends』 wasn’t such an easy place. That was the reason why the Dark Continent continued to maintain a distinctive culture.

The 「something」 that the Metalio were riding had the possibility of becoming the hint to explaining that mystery.

In that case, there would be a need to have that technology explicated, and depending on the situation, there would also be the need to absorb it.

「Nnー……It’s turned into a really bothersome story, hasn’t it.」

After putting things together, there was one conclusion for this place.

Since the story was way too big for Rokuna to deal with, there was no other choice but to report this to Vermudol himself.

It was something that she herself had sent him on, but Vermudol needed to round up the castle town observation and return as soon as possible.

This was an important event that would affect the entire Zadark Kingdom.

「It can’t be helped. Orel, go and search for Ver-cchi.」

「Ou, well……I guess I should.」

For both Orel and Rokuna, they wanted Vermudol to have a rest for at least today……but it couldn’t be helped in this situation.

「Well then, I’ll be goin’. Messenger-dono, sorry but just wait for a bit.」

「Yessir.」

After seeing Dolnois nod, Orel turned to go outside the Demon King Castle and ran off.

「……Will that person be fine alone?」

「Nn? Ahー, it’s fine.」

Hearing Dolnois’s reasonable question, Rokuna replied with a carefree attitude.

「There’s no one that can win against Orel in searching for someone.」

There is a suitable reason why that guy is serving at the Demon King Castle.

Saying that, Rokuna showed a smile.
