"Course – clear, engine – On, take off"


    I put on my homemade goggles and start the wind magic engine tounch the vertical takeoff andnding type wind magic glider, Buitor. Of course, the origin of the name is the Katakana version of VTOL. (TL: for those who don''t know what Katakana is, it is a Japanese sybary used for the transcription of words from foreignnguages or loanwords.)


    Buitor with me elerates as if sliding on the runway, and at the optimal speed it took off at once.


    Eh! What happened to vertical takeoff andnding you say?


    It consumes too much magical power and makes me tired, so I don''t do it when I don''t need it.


    Of course, Buitor can take off andnd vertically. This has been demonstrated in research and development over the past two months


    First of all, Buitor is simr to the previous wind magic glider but has undergone significant improvements.


    Like before the propulsion engine is below the belly, and the style of manoeuvring Buitor is the same as the wind magic gliders so far.


    But, the aircraft has a double structure, with two wind magic engines installed under the propulsion wind magic engine.


    The buoyancy for vertical takeoff andnding is obtained by taking in air from the front with those engines and discharging it from near the nose and tail of the aircraft directly below.


    Besides, winglets are created at the tips of the left and right main wings, and a mechanism that transforms the winglets into a wind magic engine that assists altitude control during takeoff andnding is also incorporated.


    Ah, a winglet is a bent up part at the tip of the main wing of an airne. Winglets are also attached to the wings of the Hoda Jet, made by a major automobile manufacturer in my previous life.


    In any case, Buitor can''t go against the limitations of physics ''cause it is physically flying. Taking off with lift from the wings consumes much less energy than taking off against gravity with just the force of the wind.


    For the same reason, fighter jets that take off andnd vertically do not normally take off andnd vertically.


    Now, this time''s destination is the lost forest. And the target item is the 『Scroll of No Chant』, which is sleeping before the entrance of the infinite corridor of the lost forest.


    It was like this in the game settings.


    Once upon a time, there was a gentle sage who could use a lot of magic without casting spells. he used his magic to help people. One day, the wise sage went to the elf vige in the lost forest to get the ingredients for the medicines, but he got lost and pass away.


    It was said that he was unable to go to heaven because he died in the middle of his ambitions. So, by bing a 『Scroll of No Chant』 he is waiting for someone to carry on his aspirations of helping people.


    There was no such boss battle for this scroll. It ended with a polite burial of the remaining corpse.


    And because the corpse was in front of the infinite corridor, I''m sure the wise sage was once captured in the infinite corridor but managed to escape with his power. It was said in the game that he might have fallen there due to exhaustion.


    Also, after passing through the lost forest, there is another elf vige on Temple Street. But I have no use there, so I have no ns to go there.


    In the first ce, you can''t enter unless you go there with an elf, who trusts you. And even if you enter with an elf, there is nothing particrly remarkable to see in the elf vige.


    In the game, a forced event urs in the summer of the second grade. The vige gets attack by the monsters that live nearby, So the heroine will be asked by an elf, whom she met by chance in the town to help them.


    After defeating the monsters and saving the elf vige, the queen of the elf will give her a fairy hair ornament. It is like a pass to the elf vige. where I''m going now, there will be no monsters and nothing should be happening. By the way, the setting of the scroll was that you get it by chance on the way.


    It takes about two weeks to get to the Lost Forest by carriage from Lurden. It''s further beyond the northern mountains.


    I''ll arrive in the evening, so let''s enjoy Buitor''s flight.


    ＊＊＊＊


    The sunlight is barely reaching the surrounding of the mountain. ording to the map I bought at the guild, I should arrive at the vige of Linzea, but I can''t find a ce like that.


    The vige of Linzea is the closest vige to the lost forest and my destination. even in the game, you have to go to the lost forest from this vige.


    Anyway, the current situation is not very good. Because of the deep forest, I lost sight of the highway, and I don''t know where I am. In short, I''m lost


    If I don''t find it quick, the sun will set.


    I just want to avoid the situation where I can''t find the vige and had to look for a campsite for the night.


    Furthermore strong monsters appear around here. Of course, I have brought my weapons, but I shouldn''t take any extra risks here. I can defeat monsters because of the surprise hit from using 【Concealment】. I''m definitely not strong myself.


    For the time being, if I fly around the forest properly–, the sun begins to set over the mountains.


    Not good!


    When I start looking around impatiently, I found a part of the forest that is open.


    "What if the vige is in there?"


    I muttered to myself and turned Buitor toward it. Maybe I can make it in time before sunset, and if I cannd on tnd, I''ll be able to find a campsite.


    Gradually nearing the open ce.


    That is a vige. I can see something like a house made of wood, and some human figures can also be seen.


    Fortunately, in addition to it, I noticed that there was a gaping in area some tens of meters away from the vige.


    If I suddenlynd in the vige, it will make a fuss, so let''snd there.


    I gradually lower the altitude while circling the sky.


    "Vertical engine, start!"


    Since the speed and altitude have dropped a lot, I start the engine for verticalnding. The intake and exhaust ports are opened and airflow begins.


    From here on, fine control is important.


    I have to control the altitude of the aircraft while reducing the speed.


    "Altitude control engine, start!"


    Auxiliary engines attached to both wings also start.


    By sending magical power to the four engines, at the same time using the main engine well, Buitor''s speed gradually decreased.


    As expected, magic power gets scraped off by the stone. keeping in mind the practices, I calmly control the aircraft.


    ?


    ?


    ?


    And my Buitornded safely.


    I opened the seat belt for safety and got off the aircraft, stepping on the ground with both feet.


    "Ah, I''m tired"


    I mutter involuntarily and stretched out greatly.


    After hiding the Buitor when I start walking towards the vige.


    "Don''t move!"


    There was a man''s voice and several men appeared from the woods. They are all aiming at me with a bow and arrow.


    And to my surprise, their ears were long!


    ……How did this happen?
