Isekai sword - chapters 61-70

After that, Urushi ended up licking and hitting old man Gallus with his wagging tail as he tried to take measurements, and other such things happened.

Since old man Gallus is quite tough it was fine, but a normal blacksmith would have had his life endangered. Or rather, isn’t this old man amazing? To take no damage from all that…

Urushi barks with great spirit and runs west.

Fast Fast!! Alessa is quickly disappearing behind us!

『Keep it up, Urushi!』

「Onon!」

Urushi speeds up even more with my encouragement. His tail is swinging with excitement. But, it seems Fran doesn’t share the excitement.

「Eyes, hurts」

It seems Urushi is too fast. Fran can’t keep her eyes open due to the wind shear, so I use wind magic to reduce the pressure.

『How’s this?』

「Nn, feels comfortable」

Good. It seems Fran can enjoy the scenery confortably now by just narrowing her eyes a little.

「What’s that?」

「Birds」

「That mountain, the top is white」

Fran is enjoying the ride. The scenery is flying past us. Also, Urushi never slows down at all. Even if there are obstacles he just flies over them with a jump and continues in a straight line.

Occasionally we spot magical beasts, and hunt them down. There doesn’t seem to be any strong magical beasts around here, they all die from a single attack by Urushi. I absorb the magic stone, store the meat, and let Urushi eat the bones and organs. Un, it’s best not to waste anything.

Urushi barks lightly and then slips into Fran’s shadow. Urushi has two skills for entering shadows; Shadow Dive and Shadow Migration. Shadow Dive can only enter a shadow, while Shadow Migration allows him to move from shadow to shadow.

Unlike Shadow Migration which consumes a lot of MP, Shadow Dive seems to consume almost no MP at all. Also, it seems to only consume MP when entering the shadow and nothing while remaining inside of it. Therefore, it seems like Urushi can rest and recover while inside a shadow as such.

If he’s in Fran’s shadow he’ll also of course move along with Fran so it’s a useful skill.

I use Telekinesis to hover in front of Fran with my side up.

『Now, get on!』

「Get on?」

『That’s right. There’s no way you’d know about surfing. Anyway, stand on top of me』

「Nn…」

Fran seemed a bit nervous about standing on me.

「All right」

『Ou! Also, it’d make it easier if you used Floating. I’ll be using wind magic to weaken the wind resistance』

「Got it」

『Urushi, enter Fran’s shadow for now』

「On!」

『Then, let’s go!』

I made use of Telekinesis and Floating and flew upwards. Acting as a surfing board, with Fran on me.

「Oooh. Flying」

Success!! I’ll name it Telekinetic Air Ride!

Initially I moved horizontally. Fran seems to be OK with the movement. It seems to have been a good idea to fixate her feet with Telekinesis.

I turn right, turn left, go up and down while gradually increasing the speed. Good. It doesn’t seem to be any problems.

『Well, let’s go』

「Nn!」

『Oryaaa!!!』

I was flying in a spiral, going up smoothly. I don’t rise vertically since that wouldn’t be comfortable for Fran.

「Amazing. Teacher is amazing」

「On on!」

『Urya uryaaa～!!』

Telekinesis Full Power!! We’re gradually approaching the floating island. The island which originally only looked like a tiny pebble has grown to the size of a fist.

Even though I’ve already reached a height where clouds are racing by, the island is still far away. It really is high up in the sky.

The bottom of the island is just plain rock. I really want to see what’s on top of it.

However, this time it was Fran who stopped and tightened her expression. Well, I’m the only one who can see that change in expression though. I also know the reason why Fran stopped.


『Something’s there』

「Nn. Probably a monster」

「Eh? There’s a monster?」


Raising the level of Sign Perception was worth it. It seems Argen doesn’t notice it. Well, his highest detection skill is Chrisis Perception at lvl 3 so it can’t be helped.

「Then, let’s go carefully」

「Nn. Urushi」

「Oun!」

「So he can even do things like that huh」


Urushi gave out a quiet howl. Then, a thin layer of shadow covered Fran and Argen. It’s a barrier that blocks of their life-signs. It covers the body like like armor so you can move with it active. Furthermore, it even shrinks the body a little, a perfect covert mode.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aaa… It’s completely a cultivated field. It seems like there is no sign because there’s a barrier protecting it.

According to the skeleton you would normally have a feeling that you do not want to go here, which is a psychological effect caused by the barrier.

Right as we were about to enter the forest, it must have been that barrier which caused Argen to become frightened all of a sudden. It seems like the barrier is concealed somehow, even my senses didn’t pick it up.


「A barrier that rejects people? Then, was it an application of magic of the spiritual control system of Ghost Magic?」

「Exactly」


So it’s a type of spiritual control. Thanks to our battle with the demon we have a control immunity skill and Urushi has resistance towards mental skills so I guess we didn’t notice when we came here last time.

I will cut a magic stone thrown into the air by the Fran.
It's been a long time since I've had such a powerful magic stone. And I get a ghost skill, a decaying fang: Lv 1,. The decaying rot makes the partner rot, that is, it seems to be a corrosive attack.
And, vampire skills. Lucky. I got a means of flying with this. I might even be able to go to floating island by myself.

It’s the last stretch until we can land.
I intercepted the cannonfire, sometimes crushing the shells directly and sometimes intercepting them with magic. Though there were a lot of shells, I managed to prevent us getting hit.

『Dangerous!』

It was dangerous. Although I somehow warped the trajectory with magic, if it was a few moments later we would have been run through by the cannonfire.
