Chapter 389 – Admiral Demon King

“””Uhahahahaha!”””

When the Riga-class frigate appeared on the sea, the Casemaian engineers immediately lowered the airship and jumped aboard with great speed. There were twelve people on board, mostly dwarves, who were probably there to operate the ship. The young dwarves, the old dwarves, and the clumsy dwarven-looking saint all looked around with wide-eyed amazement and laughed as they spun around. After laughing for a while, they ran around to check the equipment and the performance. It’s as if they’ve found a treasure trove. I guess that’s how it is for them.

“Two days… no, maybe just one night.”

I ask how long it will take to get it working and tilt my head at what Heimann-jiisan says.

“Eh, seriously?”

“Yeah, that’s about right. We’ll get it working, right?”

You haven’t even seen a ship from the other world, let alone touched one. Is it really that easy?

I look at Rinko to make sure, and she nods confidently.

“The old guys and I are already experts with internal combustion engines, and we have similar boilers using existing technology. We also know the basics of steam turbines. The problem is manpower, but… well, it’ll be fine. We’ll manage.”

Anyway, this mad scientist high school girl is also in an excited state, her eyes welling up and her hands shaking. Is everyone on the dwarf team in my army a pervert?

“What really blew my mind was the armor. When Caretta saw the real thing, the result of the difficult design work on the T-55 upgrade plan, he was really frustrated.”

“That’s all right, Heimann. You can’t put that kind of mechanism in an MBT anyway. Just knowing that is a ray of hope.”

Well… the mechanism in question is the loading or elevating device of the 100mm gun, right? If it’s an automatic loading tank gun, then it’s on later-generation tanks. I think it’s better not to say anything about it for now.

“Well, I’ve seen the bridge, and it looks like it’s going to be okay. Heimann-jiichan, you’ll be in charge of the engine room, and Caretta-jiichan, you’ll be in charge of the armament, okay?”

“Oh, that sounds really interesting.”

“I don’t mind either. I have a young man here who is used to the T-55.”

“It’s like a bunch of dwarves’ heaven has descended. Too bad we can’t take it apart.”

Yeah, stop it. Don’t take it apart at sea.

“If we can get a dry dock in the harbor, maybe we can take it apart and service it as much as we want, right?”

“”””Ohhh…!!!”””

Hmm… I think they only have a sailboat-sized dock, but they can make their own if they need to. Well, at least it looks like they’ll be able to sail the ship, so I’m relieved. It must be a lot of work, but I’m glad to see that everyone seems happy.

“Yoshua”

As I went up to the aft deck, Myrril came running over.

“Everyone who was on the ‘Griefon’ is safely aboard. They’re in the cafeteria-like area right now.”

“Thanks. I can’t even get around to making food for them right now, so I’ll prepare something here.”

“…Yoshua-dono.”

Marquis Yerkel approaches, a stiff smile on her face.

“What in the world is this…?”

“It’s a warship of the Casemaian Navy. It just arrived, so we’ll have to wait a while to get used to it, but we should be able to set sail tomorrow.”

That’s not really an explanation, is it? Yes, I know that. I don’t know how to explain it.

“My goodness… what an incredible ship. This is… a castle that rules the seas. Even with cannons, breaking through this outer wall would be impossible. I can’t help but be amazed…”

In reality, it’s made of many light alloys, so it would take a lot more than just arrows and bows to damage the outer plating. Still, there’s no way it would just stand still within range of a catapult during battle, so I don’t point it out.

“How fast is this ship going?”

I think it was 28 knots, but I’ve forgotten the unit. I think it’s about 50km/h in kilometers. I don’t know if it can suddenly go full speed at full power, and I don’t think it can stop in an emergency with an amateur crew.

“If you think about safety, it’s about half as fast as a hovercraft. About 80 km/h for two hours.”

“Still, it’s pretty fast for a ship this size.”

“We’ll start the test run!”

Rinko’s cheerful voice comes over the ship’s PA system. She’s so impatient. They’re going to start it already?

“Engine start, slow ahead.”

“Engine start, slow ahead, Roger!”

The way she says it sounds like she’s repeating it, but I wonder if they say it all over the ship. I don’t know; I’m not familiar with it.

“That’s okay, Jii-chan. It’s just like that for a while.”

“Hahaha… that sounds good!”

So, even though it’s a broadcast to all ships, the crew is suddenly too open. Marquis Yerkel and the people of Surz all look on with bemused smiles.

The new Casemaian Navy is a mess.
