Chapter 311: CH 311

Stability and Development


It was decided in a discussion with Valkan-san and Valzak-san that a city would be established in the so-called ancient ruins at the heart of the city before the Sky Island moved to the airspace specified by Sylph.

The Sky Island’s situation was resolved, the barrier had no issues, and the altitude maintenance and mobile altitude control were also stable.

「There are too many trees in the area we intend to develop in, so let’s use them as wood. Drying and treating them could be managed with magic.」
「I don’t think we need something this big.」
「No, Valkan-san. Things like this are a pain to expand, so let’s develop it largely from the beginning.」

With the decision to move the Sky Island closer to the Sanctuary, the Sanctuary residents there talked about being able to go to the Sky Island.

「Is it alright to develop over the ancient ruins?」
「Valzak-san, the building that serves as the entrance to the dungeon core has layers of Self-repairing enchantments and State Preservation enchantments so it’s the same as it was in the past, but the rest are just scattered rubble.」
「I believe it is valuable research for those who study ancient civilizations, but……」


「It’s okay. They will be restored them to their former state as much as possible.」

Valkan-san and Valzak-san’s face had faces that said, “No that’s not it”. Well, even I was aware. Still, I’d like to think that it’d be safe if we restore it.
This time, constructing brand new structures on the site of an ancient ruins felt out of place even for me, so I considered it as a form of restoration.

「The exchange with the Sanctuary is a welcome discussion to us.」
「Right. Even when Valkan and the others came back, their numbers were few too. Our race would have no future like this.」

The Aligerous Tribe were different from the all-female races like Mermaids and Lamias, but even if one of the parents is not from the tribe, there’s a 50% probability that the child would be of the Aligerous Tribe, so they were thankful for the chance to interact with other races.

「How about we see what it looks like first?」

I will take Valkan-san and Valzak-san to the site of the ruins, and we will look at what to restore.

Including Sophia, who came as my guard like always, the four of us went to the Sky Island ruin site.

「Please take a good look.」

I took stones out of the Item Box.
Holding a strong image of a restored building in mind, I invoked Alchemy, mixing together the rubble from the ruins and the stone from the Item Box.

The rubble and materials I prepared were enveloped in a light in the shape of a building, and after that light faded, a proper stone dwelling showed up.

「……alchemy is amazing.」
「……if it’s like this, wouldn’t it be fine, Onii-san?」

Since their responses weren’t bad, we decided to develop the center of the Sky Island like this.

「However, this would increase Takumi-sama’s work, wouldn’t it?」


「Ahー, you’re right. No choice but to ask the others to cut down trees then.」

The plan was set, so I began examining the ruins to gain an understanding of what kind of city it was in the ancient era.
I examined the width of the roads and the types of buildings and drew them together.

Luckily, there was no one else that arrived onto the Sky Island aside from the Aligerous Tribe, so the ruins weren’t desecrated. The effects of weathering over time and being swallowed up by the forest were there, but it would be taken care of with minimal transmutation with new materials.

「What’s new will be the outer walls, I see.」
「Did the ancient city not have outer walls?」
「No, I was able to confirm traces of the wall.」
「Then could you to reproduce them in their original place?」

When we talked about the walls, Valzak-san had come out with a request. If the walls were built in their original location, the scale of the city would be far larger than what we had originally planned. At any rate, we were reproducing the ancient city in its entirety.

「It’s possible, but…… it would take time.」
「We will also help.」
「I seeeee, understood. If it isn’t a Sky Island, then it would become a tourist attraction, wouldn’t it?」

Currently, if someone wants to come to the Sky Island, they’d have to fly or use a gate. However, one would need to tame a wyvern or griffin and mount it as a way to fly, but there was currently no one who could tame such monsters. As for the Transfer Gates, it’s only connected to our base in the Sanctuary and the Demon Continent, so it isn’t available to the commonfolk.

「It would be a lot of trouble if the Gates become known.」
「It’s technology that any country would love to get their hands on.」
「Indeed it is.」

We might eventually build a sightseeing blimp. It had helium gas, if I remember correctly. That would probably have very little risk. But maybe that’s unreasonable for transport.

I wonder if we’re at the stage where we should seriously consider the management of gates.
