A servant of the Arxstoria family brought in a very small flying glider, commonly known as a "flying machine".
　It was shaped like a dragonfly without a tail, and if you looked closely, you could see that it had wings folded in on both sides.

What's that? What is that strange machine ......?

　I asked on behalf of everyone.

I asked on behalf of all of us, "Simply put, it's a small, single-person airplane with high sound deadening properties!

　The Chairman then began to explain in more detail.

This was manufactured and mass produced by the Holy Roman Empire as a means of transportation for swordsmen. The developer is the 'Magus' Rod Gurf. His appearance, gender, and age are all shrouded in mystery, but he is the empire's super genius scientist.

"Magus"? ......

　I'm sure you'll understand.

(Did Zak mention something like that when we rode into the Empire? ......)

　As I was thinking back to a couple of months ago, the chairman went on with his story.

The first time this flying machine was put into action was on January 1st of this year. That's the day the Empire teamed up with the Demons and attacked the Five Powers. They used it to send members of their organization to the Principality of Theresa to attack it. The holy knights who escaped with their lives told me that there were so many of them that they filled the sky. ......

　Leah's reaction to her statement was to twitch.

The sky is filled with them. ......?　How did the Duchy of Telathia's border security allow that many to enter ......?

It is said that along the borders of the Duchy of Teresa, there were many excellent soul-armorers with long range attack methods, anti-aircraft capabilities.

So, why ......?

The superiority of this aircraft lies in its formidable maneuverability.

　The Chairman said, looking at the four wings on each wing.

The reason why airplanes have not been adopted as a means of transportation for swordsmen in the past is because of their low mobility. Something that big and can't change direction freely is nothing more than a target for a soul wearer with a powerful long range attack.

　She continued with a difficult expression.

But this 'flying machine' is different. You'll see later that it can fly vertically and horizontally at will. It can fly as if it had wings. There's nothing you can do with a half-hearted long-range attack.

　The Chairman said and shook his head.

I'm sure you'll be able to figure out the best way to get the most out of this.

"...... genius scientist?

　I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

"Yes, the Leaning Guard's world-famous scientific genius, Kemmy Fasta.

"Oh, I see. ......

　As expected, or rather, .......
　A name I've heard a few times jumped out at me.

"Tenshi-sama sent a message to her living under the bridge. "Tenshi-sama sent a message to the girl living under the bridge: 'If you succeed in developing a flying machine within a week, I'll take care of your ballooning debt.

She must have been overjoyed. ......

　I can just see her swooning.

"Kemmy lived up to his expectations and completed it in just three days.

That's very impressive. ......

　As usual, he has a lot of problems, but his abilities are top-notch.

(But it's amazing. ......)

　I'm sure she got a tremendous amount of money for her discovery of the Allen Cell at that time.

(But wow, ......) She must have made a fortune from her discovery of the Allen cell.

　He must have gambled it all away again anyway. .......
　Kemmy's lack of luck with money seems to be hardcore.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I think it's a good idea. And this is a prototype.

　The Chairman said, tapping his finger lightly on the flying machine.

According to Mr. Kemeny, it uses a completely new power mechanism that incorporates spirit stones. Well, to put it simply, it's a machine that can fly freely in the sky with our spiritual power.

　Then she said.

I've heard that this prototype has a problem with 'energy conversion efficiency' and is not very fuel efficient. ....... I'm sure everyone here will be fine with it.

　With this last bit of information, she finished her explanation of the flying machine.

　Then.

It looks like it's less than a tenth of a small plane. I wonder if it's even possible to fly a plane this size. ......?

It's ...... hard to believe.

　Leah and Rose were skeptical about the performance of the flying machine.
　It seems that they are distrustful of this unfamiliar machine.

　On the other hand.

"Hey, ...... is a super small flying glider, that's cool!

It's a name with a lot of sense. ......!

　I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea.

(Flying machine, or ......)

　It's fascinating to be able to fly freely in the sky, but is it safe to do so?

　When I was thinking about it.

"Come on, Mr. Allen. Come and try it out for yourself!

　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.

"Well, let's see. ....... Why me, ......?

As I said before, this flying machine is a little fuel efficient, you know?　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.



Apparently so.

Of the five of you, ......, no matter where you look in the world, your psychic power is unparalleled!　So, theoretically, you are the most stable flying person in the world. I thought that if I could see you flying freely like that, it might take away some of the distrust that Leah and Rose had for you.

I see, so that's what you meant.

　I don't think I could ever be the most stable flyer in the world, but .......

　I understood what she was trying to say.

And ...... even if you do fall, you'll be unharmed anyway, right?

...... That seems to be what she really meant.

　Apparently, I am not being trusted in a very happy way.

　Anyway, that's how I ended up taking a test ride in a mysterious super small plane - a flying machine.
