Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 260 260 Sea of clouds

[Lucy's POV: ]

In the open skies of the western continent, higher than the clouds, an airship attached to three wyverns must be flying so fast it would go unnoticed by normal folks.

And since this was a secured sky route, the birds of the high sky must be safe as well. Not that they would want to come anywhere near the three wyverns in front of the airship.

And the captain in charge of this airship and all our lives was a competent person that even sir Kevin trusted with their lives, so, they knew how to handle this grand aircraft well.

'However, even she wouldn't know just how special this airship actually was.'

Sir Kevin and his dear friend found it in a comparatively less dangerous ancient ruin.

They obtained it and started using it, however, the main reason they had to use three wyverns to lead it was simply because they had yet not activated this thing perfectly.

'We will do it later after El gets all the parts she needs and Anna finalizes her plans for this thing, and after we are done with it, we will have a ship capable enough to sail through not just skies or water, but the very space and the realities itself.'

And I doubt we will find anything better than what the two of them will make any time soon.

"Alright. We will use this special D6 to decide on the orders.

Everyone will get a chance to throw the dice and everyone will get one number.

The number will be repeated only once since this is a special artifact, and whoever gets 6 can choose anyone they want as their sparring partner.

And since this dice is mine, I will go first~."

That dice wasn't hers.

Anna made it so it was technically mine.

And I know for a fact that I am not going to have my chance anytime soon, so, it's better to just keep sitting here.

"The weather's nice up here."

[[ One likes it as well~. This is so fun~. Master! One used to fly across space and worlds at one point~. One wants to do so again~. ]]

"Haha. Of course, of course dear. I know for a fact you will be able to do so soon. Until then though, let's enjoy this."

[[ Yeiiiiiii~. ]]

One side of this central hall had glass windows so we could see everything outside.

And there was only a blue sky where the rising sun's rays painted the clouds under the airship, making it a sea of golden light.

Some unique beings that preferred living among the clouds were flying among the clouds, jumping on them, or playing around with their friends.

And ultimately, this celestial scenery we were only seeing for the first time in this life, was making my heart throb.

It was gorgeous.

And I wasn't the only one to think like that.

[ "Nature is vast and endless, the master had said. I am only understanding what he meant by that just now." ]

Including Sam, Helen, Karma, and Lux's special slime Shirou, all of the familiars of everyone present here were with me right now. Cary as well.

And we were looking out, together. Observing the wonders of nature early in the morning, in this grand skyship, carrying warmth in our hearts.

"Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin~!"

Nes' partner little blob of light Ethan was having great fun looking at the clouds of gold and orange under us. However, in the last few minutes we have been together, this was the first time he had spoken up.

[[ One asks if one could go down there and play with those creatures in the clouds. One believes they are fun. ]]

"Oh? Ethan wants to play with them? Well… we could all have played with them if we weren't going somewhere, you see.

We have somewhere to be soon and if we stop to play with them, we will be late.

Today isn't the best time to play with them, so, what do you say we come up here some other time just to play with them?"

"Shinnnnnn…"

His light dulled for a moment as if he was sad he couldn't play with the creatures in the clouds, the fluffy <A> rank (Cloud residents) that were some of the most unique creatures of this world.

However, his sadness faded away quickly and he started shining brightly again.

"Shiiiiiiiiiin~?"

[[ One says- ]]

"I know. He wants me to promise I will keep my word. And yes, of course, I promise we will come here and then you can play with them."

We had no choice but to come back to this sea of clouds to pick up that person and that item sometime later anyway.

He can play with these cute fluffy things then.

"Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiin~!"

He was happy now. And brighter than he had been until a while ago.

It was cute, really.

All of these familiars were much cuter than that bad mean sister of mine.

"Lucy! Catch! You are the last one!"

"Hmmm? What?"

They all were done with their turn already? And why am I when this dice was made by my familiar?

Cruel bastards.

"What did everyone get?"

I caught the dice she threw towards us and got up from the lovely window place.

It was fun watching everything pass by so quickly, but now that we had to go down and play with the others anyway, it was better to say goodbye to this gorgeous scenery for now.

"Ras and Rex got one, Cathy and Lily got two, Leon and Lux got three, Oak got four, Nes and I got five. So you will either get four as well or if you are lucky, which might certainly be the case, you will get six."

If I get six, I get to go against anyone I want. And that would be fun, certainly. But if I get stuck with five, things would be straightforward.

"Well… here goes nothing then."

It didn't really matter what I got since fighting against Oak or having the chance to go against any of them would still be something less fun than watching the sky, and the clouds.

But I shouldn't complain.

-Tarrrrrrr…

It won't be every day that I will get to fight against these protagonists.

"And… It's 6. I knew it. The six gets 6."

This dice throwing was based on luck as well since Anna made it in a way that not even the two of us could manipulate the numbers.

It was completely random what one would get and was heavily dependent on luck like the other games of luck present in the Worldline.

"Then, since this is going to be a friendly spar anyway, how about I go against all of you?"

"I knew this bastard would say that! Arrogant bastard! Do you think you can hold back against all of them AND me?!"

"I didn't say I will fight against all of you at once, El! I meant the groups! The groups that have been decided!

After you all are done with your fights with your opponents, the two and I can fight, right?

Oak and my spar will be normal as well if we do that!"

I have no intention of fighting against all of them at once when they have El on their side! I know I will lose even if I use my actual powers! And the current airship won't be able to endure that kind of battle!

"I just want to help them a little! Please understand!"

"I know! Stop shouting you scaredy-cat!"

Anyone would be afraid if she was the one shouting at them with that kind of serious look!

"It's your mistake-!"

"That's enough, you two. Stop shouting at each other please!"

El was being mean again and the situation was escalating so Nes had no choice but to come between us and stop us from arguing without any reason.

"Brother Lucy got six so he can do what he wants. And he is a swordmaster so I believe he can teach others some good things as well.

And I am not saying El couldn't do that but you're not the one that got 6, so you can't stop brother Lucy either.

You got that?"

She is the only one that can talk with my witch like that. And also the only one she listens to in this kind of situation.

"Ok… he can do what he wants. I don't care anyway."

'Others might not understand just how special it was for her to have an existence like Nes in her life. But I do. I understand it better than anyone else could.'

Nes was a 'friend' to her.

A true friend different from the other people here.

'She cared for her more than she knew herself, even if she tried her best to hide it from the others and from me.'

Nes is special to her. And, I know how difficult it will be for her to part ways with her…

But we shouldn't think about that in a fun moment like this one.

"Alright then. It is decided~."

The spar wasn't just a fight between friends but a way to deepen the bonds between individuals who were connected to one another in any way.

"Let's go down then~."

And a spar that wasn't restricted to the power levels, to any kind of limitations, and was free in true meaning, was something rare, even if one was a protagonist of some kind of a novel.

"Take care of everything up here, Anna! And slap that bastard Cary for me!"

The sparring arena on the second floor was used by people like Sir Kevin, like the people who had received titles of swordmaster, grandmaster, or Spellmaster.

It was a vast and sturdy place with ground completely made with an unknown special alloy and there were special safety measures there that would prevent at least anyone from dying.

"This place really is spacious."

"Do they use all of this for sparring? Really?"

"This is spatial expansion magic… damn."

The sparring area was larger than the airship itself so they were surprised even though they had been here a while before.

The floor was solid, and the walls looked sturdy.

A perfect place to go crazy, if I say so myself.

'Good thing I was lucky this time.'

Ras and Rex were going to go first and there were many things they could learn from each other.

'Ras is a pure swordsman who has once been a pinnacle of swordsmanship in his world. Someone who has achieved what a mortal being could with that their potential.'

And Ras is someone who uses magic in a unique way compared to El and the common mages.

Both were protagonists with absurd talent and potential and there was much to learn from the two.

However, the one thing that would help both of them, was the way to control their energies.

And, I'm going to help them with just that.
