"On the 14th of September, Qing, bidding farewell to the enthusiastic Uncle Fell family, I boarded the magic skyship bound for the Kingdom of Prorentina in Tadedar City......

“...... On the 16th of September, it was sunny, the wind was beautiful, and I was stuffy in the cabin all day, and I wanted to go out to get some air, and then I met a very strange man on deck...... She, well, judging by her appearance, let's just be her for the time being, when the weather is not cold, she is actually wearing a thick cloak, and even her face is covered by a hood...... I don't know how to describe it, but anyway, she gave me a strange feeling......"

“...... When I came out to breathe today, I met the same person on the deck again...... To validate what I had in mind, I decided to get closer...... I saw her exposed hand, well, very white complexion, seemed to be very soft and smooth, the fingers were long and thin, I had never seen such a beautiful hand, could she be some kind of great noble lady? she didn't look like an ordinary person at all......"

“...... Yes, I saw her again, she seemed to be tired today, and she was resting on the deck railing...... Ah, the wind seemed to hear my heart, and blew her hood up a little, and I finally saw her face, and although it was only for a moment, she felt so beautiful, as if it were a perfect artistic sculpture carved by the great master Anjekti Beirut......"

“...... This time I cautiously approached and felt as much as I could, and sure enough, she gave me a very strange feeling, as if she was not human at all, but she looked like she was...... Oh no, I think she found out...... Phew, I'm glad I dodged fast enough, otherwise...... Well, I'll have to be careful in the future, but don't let her find out......"

“...... Sure enough, I was so careless today that she might have discovered my existence a long time ago...... Ah, I'm blocked by her...... Oh my God, she had such a terrible weapon as a pistol, and the moment she pointed it at her forehead, I felt like my hairs were standing on end...... You know, I've seen the power of this terrible weapon...... On that day half a year ago, Viscount Anlong of the Corvox Command used this weapon to knock down a strong demonic beast with one shot, I saw it with my own eyes...... Ah, her eyes were terrible, and I had no doubt that if I were her enemy, she would have killed me with a clean shot! yes, she began to interrogate me...... Her voice is so nice, no, now is not the time to care about this, hearing her question, I think maybe this is an opportunity...... I confessed to her, and then she forgave me and gave me kind advice...... She was a very kind person, and although she still gave me strange feelings, I began to wonder for the first time if my bloodline abilities were wrong......"

“...... Since I was discovered, and I was very entangled in this problem, I approached her openly...... However, she doesn't seem to like to communicate with me very much, and no matter what I ask, she is silent to ......"

“...... I hadn't seen her on deck in days...... I decided to go to her myself......"

"September 23, sunny ...... Ah, it's really frustrating to find the wrong room again...... The kind Captain Rip told me her room number, and I rushed over with joy...... I knocked on the door, and sure enough, it was she who opened the door, and I was about to say hello to her warmly, but she had a helpless expression of 'why are you again'...... I offered her an invitation to travel with her, but she firmly refused and said something I didn't understand...... Suddenly, the entire magic airship began to shake violently, as if something had happened...... From her partner, I finally learned her name: Xia ......"

“...... Attacking us was a group of monsters called the Thorn Raven, the first time I had seen these terrifying flying beasts, their beaks and claws so sharp that they could easily pierce our bodies...... Sure enough, Miss Xia is a very powerful person, even in the face of fierce demonic beasts, there is no fear on her face, that kind of confident look, I only have that ...... The leader of this group of demonic beasts seemed to have been injured by Miss Xia and fell into the forest below...... Compared to Viscount Anlong, Miss Xia's sassy posture of shooting is really dizzying, if I can also ...... Oh no, the airbags of the Demon Sky Boat are going to be destroyed by these Monsters, but there is nothing we can do about it......"

“...... The magic sky boat we were riding in crashed and landed in the Shidar Forest...... Fortunately, Captain Rip ordered it to be lowered in advance, otherwise it would have ...... A lot of people were injured, and Jerry's ship doctor alone couldn't keep it busy...... A poor old man had bruised his head in a previous crash, but his son would not stop the bleeding and heal, and Jerry's ship doctor was helping another man who had been seriously injured...... I thought maybe I could use my bloodline power to help too...... Miss Xia and her two companions also joined the rescue ......"

“...... On cold nights, we gathered around the campfire to keep warm...... Captain Rip told us that we were in a very dangerous forest and that we should not leave the camp at will...... He assured all of us that in two or three days at the most, we would be saved soon...... However, I was a little skeptical of his words, but seeing that he was talking to Miss Xia about something, his expression seemed very serious, I resisted the urge to go over and ask him......"

“...... I woke up to the noise in my ears...... I stepped out of the cabin and saw Captain Rip circling the wreckage of the Magic Skyship with a distressed expression...... The Magic Sky Boat was badly damaged, and it seemed that it could not fly, so we could only wait for the arrival of the rescuers, and I listened to Captain Rip's constant complaints, and the words of inquiry in my heart did not come out after all...... Hey, Doctor Jerry came running over in a hurry, could it be that something was going on?I listened carefully to what he was talking to Captain Rip...... Miss Xia also came, she was very concerned about Jerry's words and knew that the air was not good for the wounded, and asked about the condition of the magic airship, and asked if it could be repaired...... Because my mind was full of concern about the humidity of the air, the timing of my interjection was a little wrong, so Miss Xia misunderstood something, and she seemed to be a little disappointed...... However, when I said that maybe I could use the power of the blood to solve the problem of humid air, Miss Xia quickly cheered up again...... Hmph, obviously I'm not much older than me, but I just want to call me a little girl, looking old-fashioned, what, Miss Xia is so annoying......"

“...... With the help of Miss Xia, Captain Rip and others, I concentrated my strength as much as possible and incorporated all the moisture in the room into my perception...... Phew, after a lot of effort, I finally succeeded, and all the moisture in the room was expelled from the room as much as possible, and everyone was very happy with the result...... Miss Xia seemed to be afraid that I would be tired and told me to have a good rest, and I did feel deeply tired......"

“...... I woke up, and I don't know how long I had been asleep, maybe only an hour or two?, but when I woke up, I was always flattered and bewildered by the kindness of the people, and I didn't do it to be thanked...... The second time I worked on the dry air, I seemed to be more proficient, but I couldn't see Miss Xia, she seemed to have gone outside the camp to check the surroundings, and she was not here......"

“...... Miss Xia, who had gone out to investigate, finally came back and brought back a not-so-good news...... What is this...... I've never heard of it, but according to Mr. Treya Kukukl's description, oh, by the way, he is one of Miss Xia's companions, and it is said that he is a very skilled mercenary, and Miss Mary Anjka, the deputy leader of the mercenary group to which he belongs, is even more powerful than him, and he is really unseemly...... Mr. Trea and Miss Mary had encountered these creatures in previous missions, and they were said to be terrifying......"

“...... Everyone began to discuss the evacuation from the camp, but Dr. Jerry did not seem to agree with the decision, and he was very worried about the lives of the wounded...... Miss Xia's attitude was very tough, she persuaded Jerry's ship doctor to make a suggestion to evacuate, and Captain Rip finally took Miss Xia's opinion after careful consideration...... Everyone is starting to act, for the sake of tomorrow for all of us...... Jerry Ship Doctor still seems to be a little worried, sure enough, he is still worried about the wounded, I looked up at the airbag of the magic airship that was still hanging on the tree branch, and a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, maybe, I can solve Jerry's ship doctor's worries and help everyone......"

“...... Miss Xia and Miss Mary both left the camp to find a new camp for everyone to move to, and the work must be very difficult, right? They have a lot of work on their shoulders, and I can't leave behind...... I shared my idea with Doctor Jerry and Captain Rip, and sure enough, they quickly agreed with my idea and sent in a few strong crew members to help me pull the airbag off the branch...... Towards the end of the evening, Miss Xia came back from her exploration, and Captain Rip discussed it with her, and mentioned my idea of cutting the airbag of the Magic Sky Boat to build a new camp, and then I was praised by Miss Xia, which was really gratifying......"

“...... Captain Rip explained the threat to the Forest Clan's existence to everyone, and everyone seemed to be a little nervous...... Captain Rip convinces everyone to evacuate, and everyone moves together...... Mr. Trea, who was in charge of keeping watch around the area, returned, and Miss Mary finally returned, bringing back great news......

“...... The ruins—the human ruins in this terrible inaccessible Shidar Forest? is really surprising news...... If Miss Mary's words are true, then everyone is finally saved...... Miss Xia proposed to go to the ruins to confirm in person, even if it was almost nightfall, she still looked cautious and careful, and we could only agree with her decision...... Ah, Miss Xia is finally back, and she has brought positive news, everyone has finally decided on the choice of a new camp, and I can't help but be full of curiosity and anticipation for that unknown site......"

“...... In the morning, I was awakened by the noise in my ears, and when I asked, I learned that something had triggered the warning trap that Mr. Trea had set around yesterday...... Miss Xia and Mr. Trea hurriedly went out to check, and came back with very bad news: the forest people had discovered our presence! Everyone became very nervous...... Under the arrangement of Miss Xia and Captain Rip, we started the evacuation ahead of schedule...... I was placed on the list of the first batch of evacuees, but Miss Xia, Captain Rip, and Mr. Trea were ready to stay at the Magic Sky Boat Camp to protect the safety of the rest of the people...... As the only person other than Miss Xia who knew the way to the ruins, Miss Mary Anjka was appointed to lead the way for the first evacuees...... Because of the presence of the fog and the strength of my bloodline, Miss Xia hoped that I would be able to provide Miss Mary Anjka with enough vision, and I thought that maybe I would be able to do the job that Miss Xia had assigned......"

“...... After a long and arduous journey, we finally came to the site that Miss Mary had discovered, and sure enough, it was a mysterious and beautiful place, and although it looked very dilapidated, it did not hide its unique atmosphere, and I dare assure you by my reputation as a traveler that it is truly a wonderful paradise...... I stayed here at the site, organizing the manpower to start building a new camp and making room for the wounded, which was a sloppy job, to be honest...... Miss Mary Anjka and a few crew members returned to the camp on the side of the magic airship, and picked up Miss Xia and the rest of them, hoping that everything will be well, I sincerely pray......"

“...... Sure enough, things didn't go as smoothly as expected, Miss Mary Anjka came back safely, and even, everyone came over intact, except for Miss Xia...... According to Captain Rip, Miss Xia chose to turn back in order to lure away the forest clans who had attacked, and I am afraid it would take a certain amount of time to come...... I couldn't help but want to go back and find Miss Xia, and although I didn't know what I could do, I always thought that I might be able to help. Mr. Kukukel must also want to go back to find Miss Xia, I can see from their expressions, however, the two of them forcibly endured, saying that they can't go out, and they can't easily attract the attention of those forest creatures, so that Miss Xia's hard work will be in vain, you know, as mercenaries, their duty on this trip is to protect Miss Xia's safety......"

“...... As the night was about to fall, Miss Xia finally returned to the new camp on this side of the ruins, and when I saw her figure, my eyes couldn't help but be a little blurry in my ears filled with everyone's joy and celebration...... Sure enough, my previous feeling was right, although her eyes were terrible at that time, but Miss Xia is really a kind-hearted person, for the safety of everyone, she would rather go alone to lead away those dangerous forest clans...... However, I still noticed that Miss Xia still looked a little worried after returning safely, could it be because of what Captain Rip said about the lack of resources in the new camp? Well, I always felt that it wasn't the reason......

“...... After a difficult night in a half-asleep night, early in the morning, Miss Xia and Captain Rip set off, deciding to transfer the remaining supplies left by the magic airship as soon as possible, because of the heavy responsibility of taking care of the wounded, Jerry Ship Doctor and I can only stay here to wait, although I know this very well, but to be honest, I don't want to do this, I would rather go with Miss Xia and them...... Just as I was busy with the affairs here, I faintly seemed to hear a strange roar, but when I listened closely, I heard nothing, and I felt a little uneasy in my heart......"

“...... The crew fled back in panic, as if something terrible had happened to them, and the horror on their faces was unforgettable...... Later, Miss Xia and Captain Rip also returned, carrying the seriously injured Mr. Trea Kukukle, but with a complex expression of happiness mixed with palpitations, in the intermittent description of the crew, it turned out that Miss Xia and they had encountered a terrible giant snake beast, and even the magic sky boat was easily overturned by it...... Miss Xia and the two powerful mercenaries worked together to kill the terrible giant snake, and they also brought back a large bundle of snake meat with scales and bloodstains, saying that it might be used as food to improve the food...... When the meat of these monster giant snakes is cooked, to be honest, it is really a bit difficult to swallow, its flesh is very rough, it is not chewable, and eating it, I feel like chewing a piece of tough old bark with a thick fishy smell...... Moreover, its shelf life in humid air is quite short, after only three days, they have become rotten and no longer suitable for consumption, and it is predictable that the corpses of the remaining giant snake monsters that have not been brought back are estimated to be in the same situation, completely rotten and inedible...... Alas, if it had been well preserved, perhaps, in the days to come, hunger and disaster might not have happened......"

“...... In order to make it easier for the rescuers to find out, Captain Rip asked the climbers to make some of the remaining airbag waste into strips and hang them on the tops of the trees around the new camp at the site, and everyone was waiting for the rescuers to arrive soon...... However, the worries in my heart lingered......"

“...... Finally, the appointed time for the arrival of the rescuers that Captain Rip had promised arrived, however, nothing happened...... I knew that there was some disappointment and frustration in everyone's hearts at the time, and I knew that it was not Captain Rip's fault as they gathered around Captain Rip and kept questioning him......

“...... Another day passed, and everyone became more worried, and Captain Rip was still doing his best to stabilize the atmosphere in the new camp so that nothing bad could happen...... Miss Xia didn't seem to be worried, she just went to check on Mr. Trea Kukukl's injuries, and then stayed quietly in a corner, as if she was resting, and seemed to be paying attention to the movements around her...... Perhaps, she was still not very comfortable with the existence of those forest creatures, and I wanted to go over and talk to her, but I resisted ......."

“...... As the days passed, the breath of despair began to build up in the camp, almost visible to the naked eye, and I think everyone probably knew the real situation they were facing......, right? Yes, there is no distress message sent to the rescuers or something, no one knows what happened to our people, and there is no rescue team searching for us, all we can do is silently pray that someone will be found, whether they are other magic skyships passing by on this route, or who knows that this magic skyboat is missing and what happened......"

“...... The lack of food, the shortage of drinking water, has caused Captain Rip to start a planned rationing, and he and his crew have gone out into the forest to find edible food, but unfortunately there is little to ...... However, Captain Rip is trying to make everyone last longer...... Everyone knows this, so there's no complaint......"

“...... Already wounded patients began to die, their bodies became hot, pain and hunger tormented them, and then, at last, some of them could not take it anymore and stopped their breathing and heartbeat...... We no longer have the strength to grieve, Captain Rip and his crew dug a few pits that were not deep, and reluctantly held a simple funeral for them, and the sadness on the faces of those who attended the funeral was there, but more than that, it was despair of the fate of the future, and numbness to the things around them......"

“...... The camp was increasingly short of supplies, and now they could barely feed on the non-toxic plant roots or fungi found around, and the people were so hungry that they barely had the strength to open their eyes...... Miss Xia proposed to Captain Rip to go to the Forest Clan's residence alone, and perhaps bring back some food, but when she returned, she was empty-handed, and only brought back the news that one Forest Clan's residence was empty, and they seemed to have moved away, leaving nothing but the dilapidated houses...... Hmm, maybe I should wonder why Miss Xia was able to maintain such sufficient physical strength when she had no food...... In fact, I should have discovered a long time ago, I don't seem to have seen Miss Xia eat any food or water with my own eyes, maybe the unusual feeling I felt from her before was correct after all, ......right? She's really different from us......"

“...... Several more wounded people have unfortunately died, and we don't even have the strength to hold a funeral for them, so we can only choose to bury them hastily, and maybe in the end, the last of our dead people will be in the wilderness, right? Heh, what a ...... In a drowsiness, a slightly bitter but sweet thing was stuffed into my mouth, I barely opened one eye, and saw Miss Xia's beautiful face, "Eat, I found it nearby" She said to me, it was a green wild fruit, I swallowed this rare food almost instinctively, and when I came back to my senses, what I saw was Miss Xia's figure walking away step by step......

“...... I don't know how long it has been, it's the first few days, and I'm no longer up to the job of driving away the humid air...... I'm tired and hungry, and compared to other people, it's a rare luck to be able to subconsciously use the residual blood power to gather water to moisten my lips......"

“......”

“...... I don't know how many days it was, but a strange cry gradually became louder in my ears, and it woke me up, and I found that the whole camp was gradually boiling, and I tried to open my eyes and look, and finally saw everything in front of me, and for the first time I found that the white-striped eagle vulture, which had been domesticated only as a flying mount, looked so majestic and energetic......"

“...... Yes, the rescuers arrived...... We, ...... survived."

......

On a magic airship that was flying slowly, in a slightly narrow room, a two-ponytail traveler girl who had recuperated and regained her strength after a few days of recuperation was writing sentence by sentence on her desk, recording the bits and pieces she had experienced these days, her expression was serious and focused.

"We were found by the crew of the white-striped eagle and rescued by this magical airboat that had been sent out to search for everyone's traces, and on this magical skyboat, we were effectively rescued: a warm bed, plenty of food and water, and an incredibly safe environment...... We no longer suffer from hunger and despair, we ...... Regaining a new life from despair ......"

Knock knock!

At some point, there was a knock on the door, followed by the familiar voice of a certain Captain Rip.

"Miss Claire, are you in there?"

"Yes, I'm here!"

Claire Pandams waved the pen in her hand and spoke.

"Captain Croft sent me to tell me that we are about to arrive at Mildavo, the border city of the Kingdom of Prorentine, the final stop of this journey, so I have come to tell you to pack up your things and get ready to disembark. ”

"Okay, I see, Captain Rip, thank you!"

"Well, you're welcome, I'm going to go ahead and inform the others......"

Hearing the sound of Captain Rip's footsteps fading away, the two-ponytailed traveler girl thought for a moment, turned a new page, picked up the pen in her hand and wrote on it---

"This arduous journey, which has gone through many twists and turns, has finally ushered in its last stop...... I, after all, am I going to part with Miss Xia and them?Ah, it's really reluctant...... Miss Xia... She is an unforgettable person...... In my life's journey, I am really lucky to have met such a companion as her...... Eventually, however, we will be separated...... Now, this moment is finally coming. ”

"As a traveler who aspires to travel around the world, I have never been so inseparable from a parting that I have ever faced, and she is not only a companion to me, but she has also saved my life and the lives of others...... Perhaps, from the moment I met her, she was destined to be an indispensable part of my life's journey, right?"

"Yes, I believe that I will always remember this journey with her in my life. ”

"After being separated from her, I will continue my journey. ”

"Isn't it because it has such a charm that I love to travel?"

"Because of my travels, I meet people like Miss Xia, people like Captain Rip and Doctor Jerry, people like Miss Mary Anjica and Mr. Trea Kukukle...... Even if it takes ten, twenty, or even a hundred years...... As long as I am alive, I will eventually remember this feeling at this moment. ”

Claire Pandams put down her pen and closed the notebook contentedly.

On its title page, there are several large characters of 'travel journal' written by her, and her own name calling herself 'traveler'. (To be continued.) )
