Chapter 25 - King and Overlord
The Wind King Barrier, usually a technique Artoria employed on her sword, altered the refractive index of light around the sword's blade, making it invisible and hiding her weapon's true form. This allowed her to conceal her identity and potentially mislead foes about the weapon's length.
Moreover, this technique could be applied to vehicles to reduce drag and increase speed. With Riding skills, it could even rival Noble Phantas...

Chapter 24 - Tom is Floating
Tom's upright walking didn't attract much attention, but Artoria's appearance and demeanor were quite striking, drawing many curious glances. Adrian's somewhat recognized on Island 59, and with his decent looks, he wasn't mistaken for a noblewoman's servant.
"Morning, Adrian bro. This lady is a new face," a young girl with an empty bucket greeted Adrian.
"Hello, Mika. This is Artoria. She arrived here recently and will be staying with me," Adrian...

Chapter 23: Adrian, Please Get Stronger Soon
One master bedroom, two guest bedrooms, one bathroom, and a storage room – that was the layout of the second floor of the tavern.
Adrian and Tom shared the master bedroom, while Artoria was given the adjacent guest bedroom.
Although it was called a guest bedroom, in reality, its size wasn't much smaller at all. Moreover, Artoria didn't seem to have any specific requirements in that regard.

If there's something you need help with, please help me understand this world. Aside from that... three meals a day will suffice."

Chapter 20: Servant Saber, Obedient to the Summons
Adrian contemplated the possibility of learning swordsmanship with Tom, but he preferred a different type of sword:
[Ordinary Knight Sword: Although placed as a decoration in the palace corridor, its quality is exceptional.]
When he held the longsword, he found it a bit heavy. He preferred the slightly wider double-edged sword. He wondered if Tom, his teacher, would agree. While looking cool was nice, b...

Chapter 19: Tom's Big Fridge
Moving has its share of trivial matters, but luckily Adrian and Tom didn't have much luggage. All their personal belongings combined amounted to just a few pieces of clothing and toiletries.
When leaving, Mrs. Molly insisted on settling Adrian's wages, but he wasn't willing to accept it. After all, he had received so much kindness from her, and the work he did felt more like Goodman finding an excuse to help him out.

Chapter 18: "Running Adrian"
Since the conversation had reached this point, Goodman took the opportunity to explain to Adrian the circular structures commonly seen in the architecture of the Sabaody Archipelago. These structures are actually made of bubble-based materials.
All one needs to do is find a suitable-sized bubble, apply a layer of special material to its surface, and of course, follow some subsequent processing steps. Overall, it's quite easy to ad...

Goodman looked somewhat disappointed as he poured himself a drink, then brought the glass to his lips. "So, you've all heard about the big explosion as well?"
"Explosion?" Molly and Bayer perked up. They hadn't heard about any explosion.
Adrian relaxed a bit. Uncle Goodman's shipyard was closest to the scene. The rumors probably...

Early the next morning, Adrian got up and freshened up.
He didn't oversleep because he didn't have his phone to play with last night. Bored, he opened the magic circle and flipped through the three pages over and over dozens of times. As a result, he noticed that his energy had decreased by 1%, which made Adrian feel so distressed he could hardly breathe. He reluctantly went to sleep.

After a satisfying meal, it was necessary to rest for a while, especially for Tom, who had overindulged and now had a belly that looked like a ball.
Bayer squatted next to Tom, poking his round belly with curiosity.
"Meow-ow~ Haha..." Tom lay back, making a sound that was a mix between laughter and a painful groan, his funny expression causing Bayer to burst into laughter.

Tom yawned and obediently perched on Adrian's shoulder.

Considering he was Tom, Adrian let it go and decided to focus on exploring his "golden finger."

Adrian remembered that Tom was a linguistic master, proficient in multiple languages from various countries, including local dialects of China. Why didn't he just speak?
