Chapter 272: The City Connecting East and West
New chapter of The Demon King is out! (1/2 chapters)
I was on a ship under the clear autumn sky. In the distance, Telumur was visible. Since it was from the sea, only the city walls could be seen, but even just looking at the tall and long city walls that stretch on far into the distance, I could tell it was a large and splendid city.
“Alright, wait until the enemy does something.” (Yuri)
I said to the sailors who were conscripted. The ship was requisitioned, but the sailors were the ones hired by the Hou company.
A ship is a kind of closed space, so there’s no way I could sleep peacefully on a ship operated by Kurans.
“Do you think they’ll do something?” (Myaro)
Myaro, who was riding with me on the ship, said.
“Well… if they don’t, we’ll just destroy the blockade tower and go back.” (Yuri)
This ship isn’t that big, but it has the cannons used in battles mounted on the deck. It could be lifted with the crane from the port facilities in Shantinion. Now it is secured in the middle of the deck with ropes and bolts. Since there are also gunners on board, it should be possible to fire.
