601 599 Workshop Burning (2/2)

The look of the ship, still flaming, is similar to the tanker fire we saw in the news footage. Well, it's smaller this way.

Still, in that fire, there's a risk of flying into surrounding ships, and rescue would be unavoidable.

”What ship is that?

Commercial fleet ships are a thousand different roles and owners. You can't tell at first sight by strangers like us: boats for residential use, fishing, workshops in offices, headquarters for guilds.

”Dagor. That ship, which ship?

”Ah, that's the workshop ship Lord Black Thunder said he was headed for!

Is that it?

”Are the Robrens Safe?

(Master, the work of Zelaisse?

'I don't know!

But it would be unlimited.

'We're on our way to that ship for now!

”Mmm! Ursi!

”On!”

Fran jumped on Ursi's back and headed for an exploding workshop ship. Sometimes there is an explosion, large or small, just because it is a workshop and it is loaded with flammable chemicals.

Besides, there seemed to be a hole in the bottom of the boat, which was starting to sink at considerable speed. This would be quite catastrophic.

To the point of watering it with magic, it doesn't seem like something can be done.

”Dude, the Robrens...”

”Master! There!

At the tip of Fran's finger, he saw Roblen grabbing at the plate and floating in the lake.

”Roblen!”

”Oh, Fran......”

There's no way Robren would be frightened by a giant wolf because he's already seen Ursi many times. Maybe I can't afford it either.

I'll use my mind to pull Roblen up on Ursi's back.

”Daijibu?

”I managed...... But the other adventurers who stepped into the workshop together...”

”What happened?

To Robren, who looks sad, Fran asked what caused the explosion.

”An alchemist in the workshop suddenly unleashed a powerful flame magic trick. Then you can set the drug on fire.”

”What about that alchemist?

”I don't know. I should have been caught in an explosion... I don't think I'm going to die to that extent.”

Robren said he was a blonde, childlike young man who spoke.

”But that's not just an alchemist. More of a horrible opponent... I just saw it and got goosebumps”

Definitely. It's Zelaise. Roblen must have sensed, with that sharp look, that his opponent was not the only one.

”Fran, we'll give priority to rescue for now.”

”Mmm!”
