「Hurry up! If we won’t save them faster they will sink completely!」

「I know! But we don’t have enough boats to rescue them!」

We were at the harbor where such shouts of the marine guild’s men could be heard.

And the same as those men, I was looking at the ship that was in the sea at a considerable distance from the harbor.

A medium-sized ship, clearly inclined to the side, one can say that it’s on the verge of sinking.

「And there is smoke… Hey, guys, is it perhaps on fire?」

When asked, the men in the harbor shook their heads.

「We don’t know! However, the guy who fled from there, barely reaching the shore, said that he heard an explosion!」

「I see…」

So, in the end, the cause is still unknown. Now, what do we do, I thought, putting my hand on my chin—

「Master. Should I turn into a dragon and pull that ship?」

Berzelia suggested, but I declined, shaking my head.

「No, that ship is about to crumble, so we are best to avoid moving it by force.」

Crew members would be in danger if we were to destroy the hull with brute strength.

……Our current request is to rescue and transport the crew.

And it probably would be better to refrain from flying as well, since there is a good chance that Berzelia’s wings might sink them.

We have to move carefully. That’s why I turn to Saki.

「For now, let’s go to the ship. Saki come here.」

「Yes, the usual one, right? Roger.」

Saying that Saki came into my arm’s reach.

Then, I lift her in my arms.

「Berzelia, follow after us.」

「Got it. Lysnoir, take my weight into consideration as well.」

「I know. You will be able to get on, unless you got fat. Please rest assured.」

And while having such a talk we head to the sea. Seeing our actions, the men around us frowned.

「H-Hey, carrier lad? And girls as well, just what are you trying to do?!」

「We received a request. So we are going to save the crew.」

「Going? Are you planning to swim there?」

「Stop! We understood that you are brave, but this will bring nothing but your death?!」

「If you had a high status with a combat job it might’ve been one thing, but doing this with a beginner’s job is just reckless!」

Unanimously the sailors are trying to stop us. What a good people.

I also think that it is dangerous to swim across the sea in such a cold season. That’s why—

「Ah, we have no intentions of swimming. —Then, we’ll be going. Thank you for the information, old-timers.」

After saying that, I kicked off the ground at full force.

With an explosive sound, I plunged into the air above the sea.

「Wha?! What is that leap!」

And using the ship staying at the wharf as a foothold I took another leap. Then—

「I will create required footholds as I did in the past. 【Freeze Stage】」

At the place where we were about to land a pillar of ice has formed.

Following the inertia, I land on it.

I felt a solid footing under my feet, not slippery even in the slightest.

「As expected from you, Saki. Your skill didn’t weaken, or rather, didn’t your magic power get even stronger?」

「Of course. I made a ton of improvements to it. Though footing became more solid due to them, it also became colder. Be careful.」

「No, the coolness is on the perfect level. Berzelia, are you good as well?」

「Yes, no problem here. I can feel the power running through it. Let’s keep going.」

This time using the ice pillar as a foothold, we took another leap.

In the meantime, Saki created another foothold.

Going along with it I took another leap.

「What, is that…? They are… Hopping over the sea?!」

「I’ve never seen anyone move like that…And that guy, he had a carrier’s bag……」

With such voices behind us, I jump over the sea, heading for the merchant ship.
