The submarine slowly reached the port, positioning itself ready to dock.
The guards at Erisen observed the strange ship with vigilance.
"Hey, what is that?" Guard A asked his friend.
"It looks like a ship. But I am not sure." Guard B answered.
"What if that's a bandit ship? Hurry, Inform the Guild," said Guard B.
"On it." The guard A hurried back.
Seeing the strange ship align near the dock, some pedestrians started gathering, chattering and whispering.
From the submarine, a plank extended toward the wooden panel as a door slid open, and we descended.
"So, this is Erisen," I said, looking around at the floating city buildings surrounding the three peaks.
Unlike the anime, which depicted a single giant rock surrounded by a floating city, this version features three peaks encircled by the city.
"Hey, look at that! They are coming out," one of the guards said. With that scream, all the nearby guards gathered. Their spear was still pointed at us.
The people of Erisen looked at us with mixed emotions. Some regarded us with vigilance, some were curious, and others were distrustful.
"They look quite wary, don't they?" I scanned the crowd.
"Of course they would, seeing an unknown ship come out of nowhere, anybody would," Shizuku chided.
"Shizuku, don't be such a buzz kill, I was just saying. You should try and relax a bit," I said lazily, smiling at her.
Shizuku, seeing me so carefree, sighs exaggeratedly.
"Stop right there! Who are you!?" one of the guards asked, pointing his spear at us.
Hajime, seeing this, took the lead and walked closer to the guards.
"So, who among you is from the guild? I have business with the guild," Hajime announced.
The guards, uncertain what to do, looked at each other.
One of the guards said in a hushed tone, "Should we take them to the guild?"
"There is no need for that; I will take care of things," a gruff-looking man said as he arrived. He had an authoritative presence, and surrounding him were men in the distinct uniform of the Adventurer's Guild.
"It's the guild master," one of the guards whispers.
Although the guard spoke in a hushed tone, my superhuman senses made it feel like he was whispering directly into my ear. From the expressions on the faces of my companions, I could tell that I was not the only one who heard him. Hajime, Shea, Tohru, and Tio also caught what he said.
We then focus our attention on the man with the sharp gaze.
"Let me introduce myself. I am 'Set', the guild master of the Erisen. So, what business do you have with the guild?" the man known as Set looked at us and introduced himself.
"The guild master himself is here with us, what an honour," Hajime said, with a bow.
"Well, when you have an unknown ship like that suddenly appearing on your doorstep, and then you hear some of the border guards go missing. I have no choice but to see it for myself." Guild master Set sharply looked at us.
"Before we start, tell me where the men who were guarding the border are."
As soon as he asked that everyone's gaze landed on me.
I acted like I didn't see their gaze and spoke, "Tohru, if you will."
"Ok, master," Tohru then sprouted her wings and flew where the rope was still bound. She then yanked the rope, dragged the dagons out of the water and proceeded to throw them like a fisherman throws fish.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
…
..
.
The men from Erisen watched this in disbelief as their comrades were tossed around. Some began to whisper and glared at us with hostility, especially the guards.
Noticing the situation, I spoke up, "Before you all consider attacking, let me clarify this: we attempted to communicate with them first, but they refused to listen and instead started to attack us. Therefore, we had no choice but to subdue them," I said my peace.
The guild master, Set, looked at the unconscious men alive, looked at us with an expressionless face, and said, "I see."
Hajime, seeing the chance, handed the letter, "I have a letter for you from the Fuhren Guild Master."
One of the Guild master's guards took the letter and handed it to Set. He opened it and read its contents.
After about a minute, the guild master nods in understanding, "I see, I understand now. Where is the Dagon Girl?"
Hearing that, I used telepathy to reach out to Shea.
"Shea, bring her here," I send the telepathy.
"On it."
I got a mental nod from Shea.
I nodded at Hajime, who looked at me with a Side eye.
"Papa, we are here. Let's go. Mama is waiting." As soon as Myu joined us, she grabbed my hand and started to drag me.
"Myu, wait a minute," I then took her in my arms.
"Let's go, let's go," Myu pointed in the direction of her house.
"Alright, alright. Hajime, mind taking care of formalities?" I looked at Hajime.
He looked at me with slight annoyance, but still, he nodded. "Fine."
"Alright, Myu, show us the way," I said, getting the green signal from Hajime.
Myu jumped down from my arms and started to pull me toward her house. Shea, Shizuku, and Tohru, seeing me being dragged, decided to follow.
The guild master Set, seeing us leave, looked at us with a sharp gaze. His eyes then focus back on Hajime.
"I have a few questions for you."
…
"Papa, this way, let's go, hurry," Myu excitedly dragged me all the way to her house.
"Myu, slow down, don't rush like that." I try to calm her down, which is beyond my help. Myu wasn't listening.
Shea, Shizuku and Tohru followed with a wry smile.
"He is truly helpless against Myu," Shizuku Said with a smile.
"Rihito does consider her as a daughter, so it's natural," Shea smiled.
"Then does this mean Myu's mother is also joining us?" Tohru suddenly blurted out.
Both Shea and Shizuku look at Tohru. Their expression asked, 'What the fuck are you talking about.'
Seeing their questioning gaze, Tohru explains as it was obvious, "Isn't the master considering Myu his daughter? Doesn't that mean her mother will also be considered as the mate of the master?"
"..."
"..."
"Wait, what!" Shea exclaimed.
"No way something like that will happen, right? Isn't she married?" When Shizuku said that, all three of them fell silent.
"..."
[I have to keep an eye on him], both Shea and Shizuku thought at the same time.
Crossing a corner, Myu, with a large smile, pointed, "Papa, look, that's it."
Rihito gazed at the house, which initially appeared to be ordinary. However, with his keen insight, he could tell that it was anything but typical. A strong barrier enveloped the walls, and to top it all off, the entire structure was made of adamantium, which was camouflaged to look like bamboo or wood.
Rihito, seeing the house, was dumbfounded [Is that a house made of Adamantium?]
[How did someone find so much adamantium in a place like this, and who even built a house from it? Is there a high-level synergist living here?]
Rihito paused, sensing something unusual. He detected a significant amount of mana maintaining the barrier over the house, which was getting transferred here from elsewhere.
Just as he wondered that, suddenly, a man flew out of Myu's home, crashing into the house on the other side as if he had been forcefully thrown out.
"..."
Upon seeing this scene, I raised my guard just in case. However, the moment I used my mana sense to check the situation.
[Um… why is she acting like that?] I thought, seeing the supposed gentle woman, act like she was ready to kill.
[I don't remember her acting like this. Is this something anime did not expand upon?]
…
20 minutes ago
It has been two whole months since Myu was kidnapped, and throughout this time, Remia has been worried sick about her situation. Is Myu alright? Is she hurt? Is she eating properly? Is she even alive? Every day, these thoughts plagued Remia's mind. The fear that something terrible might be happening to Myu, while she feels helpless to do anything, is overwhelming.
Remia had spent the last two months like this. Then suddenly, two guild members came running and announced that some adventurers from Fuhren had brought her daughter back.
Crack
After hearing that, she could no longer remain calm and applied more force than necessary, breaking the armrest of the chair. She stood up, ready to rush to her daughter.
"Where is she?" The anxiety in her voice was unmistakable.
"Please wait, Lady Remia. You can't go; we were ordered to keep you here," said the man from the guild.
Bam!!
Before Remia could process what had happened, she had already swung her fist and sent the man flying out the door.
In response to her emotions, the pendant on her neck started to glow.
Her gaze then landed on the woman, who looked at Remia with panic.
"Lady Remia, please stop, you can't go now, just listen to me. The guild master is there, he will take care of things and bring back Myu," a dagon woman from the guild tried to convince and stop Remia. But to her distress…
"Don't stop me. My baby is back. I have to go there. I have to see my baby." Remia said with a slight edge in her voice.
"If you don't want me to hurt you, get out of my way. I won't say it twice," Remia's gaze intensified.
Now that her daughter was this close to her no way she would stay put.
"Get out of my way." Remia almost growled. Her patience was almost running out. She was ready to punch. But right then, another voice stopped her.
"Mama~"
