I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter
Chapter 48
48 – Chapter 17. Hymn to which drone – 2
– 49 –
“Miss Erif. Im here.”
I carefully opened my eyes to the voice that woke me up.
When I got out of the car with the help of a soldier standing in front of the open door, a salty sea breeze blew.
The sea glistening in the sun and the grass with a bit of burn marks.
As you saw in the news earlier, the statues in front of the castle wall that lined up in the back were in the middle of being dismantled.
Where did the muscular upper body that formed the surface go, and only the tall tower remained as the name suggests.
“Hey. Did you come Erif.”
As Curst approached, the nearby soldiers saluted in unison.
As a courtesy, I opened my mouth after saluting.
“What is the purpose?”
“Is there something urgent? Aren’t you bored anyway?”
I didn’t reply because I had not yet forgotten the humiliation suffered by Kirst.
Kirst shrugged his shoulders and put me in the big military car.
“It took a long time to dismantle the fortress wall, so the search for this place has been carried out for some time. In the meantime, I found an armory warehouse that was presumed to be from the time of the Shinma War.”
“Armor warehouse?”
Kurst pointed to the drone picture in my hand.
“The drones were piled up in huge numbers. There was a strong locking magic on it, so I managed to open it with a few wizards. Thanks to the preservation magic, the storage condition is good.”
“Hey.”
A lot of drones have been found.
So? I wanted to ask, but I can infer its usefulness from Sila’s words, so there’s no need to say anything in vain.
After a while, the car stopped.
As I followed Curst, the soldiers were busily coming and going here and there.
At the same time, Cust, who did not slow down his walking speed while returning each salute, looked a little terrific.
The warehouse was on a hill overgrown with grass, so it was out of sight until I went right in front of it.
The number of the warehouse was written in ancient language on the top of the solid door that did not rust even after hundreds of years.
“The second drone warehouse.”
Kirst nodded his head slightly and entered the warehouse.
As he followed him into the warehouse, he saw boxes piled up under dim lighting.
“Is this all drones?”
“Yes. We’ve taken out a few for research, and the rest are being strictly guarded here. It seems that an intermediate wind spirit is needed for operation, but it is a car that was a little difficult because it does not seem to be the kind that has a contract with our country.”
“Sometimes you make contracts with spirits on a national level.”
“Yes. The plump bird-shaped intermediate wind spirits in your helicopter are the most common. The fact that it is common is that it is a common type, so it resides in various weapons. The same goes for the lizard-shaped intermediate fire spirit.”
I am a humanoid spirit, but I didn’t know much about spirits.
I’ll listen to Sila in detail later.
“But that intermediate wind spirit cannot dwell here. When I called the Elemental Master and asked, he said that he was not the kind that he had jurisdiction over.”
“Yes?”
I may have misunderstood the meaning, so let me ask.
I was holding the pendant, and an intermediate wind spirit came out.
Just in case you did, you can command it inside.
[[Did you call, Erif-sama.]]
Looking at how fast he was, he must have been the guy who taught Cermia the other day.
I pulled out a drone from a nearby box.
“Yes. Can you nest in this drone here?”
Intermediate Wind Spirit tilted his head and pecked the drone with his beak.
Then he closed his eyes slightly, then opened them immediately and opened his beak.
[[I can’t. We specialize in aircraft and helicopters rather than drones. It is possible to nest itself, but it will be difficult to control.]]
“Then do you have any friends who can control this?”
[[Um. Sila-sama would know.]]
“Okay. Oh.”
I have to give you the reward I was thinking of in the spirit world last time.
After the victory in Mongjungjeon, two green stones and three papers were in my pocket.
Cermia, Shane, and I shared the paper with the words ‘The Best Training Book’ written on it, and I had the green stone, presumed to be the wind spirit evolution stone.
I took out one of them and showed it to the intermediate wind spirit.
“If I give this to you, will it evolve into a higher spirit?”
[[That’s…… Oh, it’s an evolution stone. We’re past that stage.]]
“That step?”
[[Evolution stone is an item that evolves a low-level spirit into an intermediate-level spirit. This item is urgently created when a large number of intermediate spirits are needed in the spirit world. I heard that the recipe was lost quite a while ago, but it seems you have found it.]]
“From low to intermediate… ….”
I thought it would be very useful then, but a drone caught my eye.
“If I use this on a lesser wind spirit, will it turn into a cute sparrow like you?”
[[hahahaha. The compliment is too much. Of course, we are cute, but.]]
The mid-level wind spirit, who was shivering with a friendly smile, glanced at the drone and said.
[[You can evolve it into a form you know. However, it will be difficult for Erif-sama to go directly to the spirit world and meet other spirits, so I’ll have to ask Sila.]]
“That’s right.”
After thanking the intermediate wind spirit, he sent it into the pendant.
“Hey, did you find something?”
Kurst, who had been silent, spoke carefully.
I thought that Kirst could roughly understand the spirit language, but because he was making complex conversations rather than simple words, he and other people could not keep up with the conversation.
“Wait a minute.”
I closed my eyes and concentrated my mind, calling out the name of my close friend.
“Silla.”
The air in the stagnant warehouse moved.
The wind gathered in the air, pushing the dust in the warehouse out the door, and Sila slowly appeared.
[[Did you call me?]]
“Yes. Because of this drone.”
Silla jumped over the drone that was lying on the floor.
[[Yeah, these drones. Once upon a time, I also operated a drone unit.]]
“Then do you know which spirit should dwell here?”
[[Yes. Among the middle school kids, I have friends who are like big butterflies.]]
“Butterfly.”
I am weak against insects.
Anyway, I had to control the drone, so I decided to call it.
“Can you call just one person?”
[[Okay.]]
When Sila spread her one wing and swung it in front of her, a fairly large wind blew up.
The spirit world was glimpsed through them, and a butterfly with green translucent wings appeared.
It’s as big as our sparrows.
[[Hello, General Misfire.]]
The butterfly flew gracefully and sat on my outstretched hand.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Erif.”
[[You are the name of the material world. Has confirmed.]]
You’re a smart friend.
When the butterfly was placed on the drone, it naturally permeated into it.
[[This is an L32 type drone. It is a type with excellent applicability of reconnaissance magic and is often used for reconnaissance or linked operations.]]
Oh. It was pouring out a lot of information.
I got a notebook from the soldier standing next to me and wrote down what the butterfly called.
There were a total of 4 types of drone boxes for each type. In addition to the reconnaissance that I just saw, there were two types for attack and a type for carrying.
When I wrote a description of it and gave it to the soldiers, everyone looked very excited.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, it will be over soon.”
[[No, Erif-sama. This land is not a place where we are permitted to operate, but I think it will be soon.]]
“Yes. When that time comes, we will see you again.”
[[Yes. Until then, rest in peace.]]
The butterfly returned to the spirit world with the help of Sila.
“Does anyone know how to make a contract at the national level?”
“It needs to be discussed with the Ministry of Magic. We need to summon the spirits as well.”
“If it’s an intermediate wind spirit in the form of a butterfly that I just saw, I’ve seen it in Kariya. They say they have a contract with all the spirits, so we might be able to airlift a little.”
Kirst nodded his head with satisfaction.
It will take a little research on how to use the drone and its usefulness, but it can be used as a substitute until the helicopter is mass-produced.
Since the size is small and the know-how of analysis has been accumulated while researching the helicopter, self-production will be possible soon.
Leaving Curst with an eerie smile behind him, he summoned the lesser wind spirit that stayed in the pendant.
[[Hello. Hello.]]
In the spirit world, it was a low-level wind spirit that was a reliable ally, but in the physical world, its performance and intelligence were greatly reduced.
I grabbed the guy who was always showing the joy of meeting me and brought the wind spirit evolution stone.
“Evolution~”
Evolution Stone of the Wind Spirit When it touched the body of the lower wind spirit, a change occurred.
…… Oh!? The appearance of the lesser wind spirit…… !
The wind blew towards the lower wind spirit, which was a roughly drawn wind pattern.
The spirit transformed into a transparent green sphere woke up like a butterfly from a chrysalis.
Congratulations! Lesser Wind Elemental has evolved into Intermediate Wind Elemental (Butterfly)!
It was originally a spirit belonging to me, so this guy can work here.
I have been receiving drones for each type under the pretext of research.
“It ended earlier than expected. Are you going to stay here for a day or go back to school? If you leave now, you will arrive at school at night. Are you okay?”
“I’m going to stay here for a day, okay?”
It wasn’t a proper building, but a fairly large barracks was built.
I don’t have to go back anyway, so I need to learn how to handle drones here.
On the way to the barracks, a soldier rushed out.
“General. Rescue calls have come from a nearby town.”
“What is the situation?”
“The stone statue here collapsed, and as a result, the radius of action of the monsters has expanded. It is said that many of the lochs that lived in the southern forests are attacking the barns and other places near the North Sea.”
“Okay. After all, he’s a flying guy. Ask the nearby units for support, collect the anti-aircraft armaments and send them away.”
“Four!”
After the lieutenant answered, he headed somewhere.
After completing the report, the soldier saluted Kirst and ran again somewhere.
It seemed that the anti-aircraft defense power was not very good enough to make a sound of pain.
Then I should be able to respond to some extent.
“I want to go.”
“…… Are you okay?”
“Yes. Because civilians could be at risk. And try this drone.”
I just picked up a drone that had a butterfly-shaped spirit nestled there.
Kurst thought for a moment and gave permission.
“Okay. Time is running out, so let’s go first. Leave the communicator on and the operator will tell you where it is.”
“Okay.”
After summoning the main body to a nearby vacant lot, I put the drone in the back seat.
[[Ah, Erif. If you put the drone here, it will have to land and take it out again.]]
Sila, who was quietly hanging from my shoulder, came to tackle her.
Following Sila’s words, she found a storage compartment under her body, placed the drone, and closed the lid.
[[Now you can launch the drone by pressing the eject button.]]
“Thank you, Sila.”
[[Remember me quickly, Erif.]]
Listening to Sila’s affectionate Pinzan, she climbed onto her body.
[[Call me when you fight]]
Sila naturally sat down on her back seat, spread her wings and lay flat on her back.
Seeing Sila like that, she smiled and started her engine.
Magical power flows out of the manastone that was charged last time, causing her engine to run.
Hearing the heartbeat of the engine, it cut through the wind and floated into the sky.
