Chapter 177: V2 Ch 32. Heart of iron

It was the fourth day we walked. I kept on whistling and already managed to make the girls crazy.

We somehow found a road because the principal left us a map with detailed route to the academy. Of course we walked in the wrong direction. There is a river which directly leads to the academy. If we were to walk all the way we would never arrive in time but if we were to steam there using this waterway we can make it just in time. The current plan is to abandon Xera because as a knight she is not required to be in the academy by the start of the semester.

We walked closer and closer to the river and will soon arrive. If by any chance this river is large enough I will deploy the ship here, if not then I will just have some soft things rub against my back for a few blissful hours.

“M’lady, I suggest we leave her alone, she is a pervert.” Xera feels my soul too well but because I keep my face the same she can’t convince Lilith that I like having something soft touch me.

“Lilith, can you take my hand, we better stick together. If something attacks us then it will aim for Xera because of her meaty body.” Without any hesitation Lilith stuck close to me and had my arm squeezed between the warm and soft lumps of fat.

[I wonder if she even understands that I am just doing this for an arbitrary reason?]

[[[Meanwhile, on the outer side of Delight’s arm.

[She is so cool! She can defeat anyone just by using a few spells! I wonder if she is interested in me… I am so happy she wants to have my body close! Oh, if she were a man would she want to do this-and-that with me… Oh~.]

The ‘this-and-that’ is left to your imagination.]]]

When we finally found the river I confirmed that it is too small to fit my body. Well, I always can just carry Lilith in my arms.

“Come here, we should go.” Lilith unglued herself from my arm and happily glued herself to my front. I firmly hugged her to prevent her falling into the water.

“Hey, dumba*! If something happens to My Lady I will find you even if you are on the other side of the world!” Xera looked like a worried mother who sends her daughter to the first date.

I quickly accelerated and in less than a minute I was steaming at the maximum speed.

Very soon I felt that the engine is at its limit and I slowed down. The problem is that with each second I felt the pain in my heart become stronger and stronger.

I checked the stats and confirmed that my turbines were having irregular rotation even with a proper supply of steam. The word ‘f*’ is the only one that crossed my mind right now…

If I were to compare my steam engine to my heart then the boilers would correlate to my blood pressure. If they fail then I have less pressure and can barely move. The turbines on the other hand are the heart itself. If they do fail then it is similar to having my heart stop. So, currently I am having a heart attack.

This time instead of waiting until the turbines are completely dead I used the repair kit. The turbines immediately returned to a stable rotation and my speed and heartbeat normalized.

“Miss Delight, are you alright? I felt like your heart stopped beating for a moment.” Lilith sounded concerned but I could not tell because her face is buried in my chest.

“I am alright. Whenever I push my limits I have my mechanical heart ache.”

“This is terrible! Even if we are late the principal will not punish us too hard but if something was to happen to you!” (L)

“Instead of a tantrum I’d rather have you calm down, if you fall you might die. If you see how fast we are going then I bet you will make the right call for now.” With this she went silent until the end of our adventure.

When I launched a hydroplane the catapult did not work so I had to risk using the second catapult. After it failed as well I remained blind and could only rely on my radars which only showed a static image which was there since the beginning of the river run. I am blind in the middle of a huge river and can hardly tell where we are. I checked the images of the map again and again until I vaguely estimated the position and when I expected we will arrive I slowed down and approached the coast.

Disembarkation proceeded smoothly and Lilith was safely delivered. We walked for a few minutes and then, right after we walked out of a line of bushes we saw a number of huge buildings surrounded by a fence.

“Miss Delight, welcome to the Academy? Let’s go, we might make it in time!” With this Lilith dragged me somewhere until we saw a large metal gate with forged metal letters.
