Thomas and Virgil, decides to search for survivor, during search they encounter many wild animals they had to fight for self defence, they also encountered the kites, the small creatures known for their malevolence, including a kite shaman who was guarding a magic chest. Fortunately, being a savage creature, kites don't know about the knowledge about collision of magic and technology, as they probably practiced magic but their weapons seems to be aligned with neither magic nor neutral, but pure technology itself, and that's what happened to kite shaman, the kite sword (technically a dagger), is a low level technological weapon created by kites, while a sharp dagger, it weaken the user's magic or lose durability quickly due to the effects of magic. The kite shaman doesn't seems to be an expert mage, so, he was unable to use his full powers, he was beheaded by Thomas's sword. Thomas, after killing the kite checked the magic chest he was guarding and found some potions, jewels and a magical chainmail armor. Due to the fact that some magical items could be hexed items, he chose to not to give it vergil until he find out whether it is hexed or not, but there was a problem his bagpack cannot carry this items, as he need either a cargo vehicle or space device or magic pouch.
"Sir, I can carry them for you, I have a magic pouch that can carry all types of magical and neutral items as well as components of technology", Virgil said.
"Thanks bro", Thomas thanked Virgil.
During there search they also found many components of technology as well, magic pouch although cannot carry technological items, it can, however, carry the components of technology, be it spare parts, chemicals, or herbs, Thomas picked all useful components from thre crash site while searching for any survivor. But unfortunately, it seems that Thomas is the sole survivor of the crash, he found the gunslingers and bowmen, who are clearly dead, he found the necromancer but he was dead as well, he found a woman with letter for his lover, poor woman died before she could confessed her feelings, he also found the cameraman, who is dead as well, there was no survivor other than Thomas, as none of them were as prepared as him. Since, he have got himself in really awful situation, he finally decided what path to follow. He decides to follow the ways of technology, as technology although on par with magic, promises quick returns but one have to find necessary components first for that, fortunately there where enough components at crash sites, so, it is easier fpr a technologist to obtain components in such places. While looking for necessary parts, the duo discovered a crate, containing factory goods, inside there severeal ingots of steel and iron ores, looks like this crate was a courier for a smithy. Inside Thomas found a big heavy book related to smithy discipline, this is a good news for Thomas, because with book, it will be a matter of time Thomas to learn the knowledge of modern smithy, perhaps he could create better sword for himself through technological means, as his original sword is of neutral aptitude. The term 'neutral' refers to the people who are neither mages nor technologists, as well as certain items that are made from simple technology and is highly inferior to complex technology and magic. Since, Thomas's sword is a simple technology, and thus it's aptitude is neutral and is no match for the magic swords made from magic or alchemy and the complex sword made from more scientifical means. Since, now he has book of smithy discipline, he can now create a better sword for himself, the sword he planned to create is famous 'balance sword'. Balance sword is special technological sword that appeared to be a normal unenchanted sword, but it is far deadlier than normal sword, it is lighter, sharper and more durable than any sword making it quite deadly to any foe despite it's non-magical nature, the entire army of Unified Kingdom and nearly half of soldiers from Arland's army prefers balanced swords due to it's efficiency and advantage over enchanted armors, which was clear during the war between Unified Kingdom and Cumbria, as even without their firearms, the soldiers of Unified Kingdom easily dismembered many Cumbria's soldiers equipped with enchanted armors, thanks to this sword, but that's not all, those who learned chemistry discipline or/and electric discipline alongside the smithy discipline even modified the balanced sword, by coating the blade of balanced sword with strong poison, creating the envenomed sword or they attached an electric capacitor to balanced sword, creating the charged sword. These to weapon are known to be used by elite swordsmen of Unified Kingdom's army, against the elite soldiers of Cumbria's army with stronger enchanted armor, thus maintaining the supremancy and advantage of Unfied Kingdom during wars. Although thomas can create a balanced sword without any problem after he master the smithy discipline, he cannot create it now, as he lack the forge and materials, so for now, he created somthing else, that is, healing salves. The place where zeppelin is crashed have large quanitities of kadura plants and ginka plants, stem of kadura and roots of ginka are the main ingredients of healing salve, should a herbologist find this place, he/she will shed tears of joy as this place is a treasure trove for any herbologists. Thomas who himself is a herbologist thought of himself lucky, as in his eyes the zeppelin crashed at the right place, as this place is filled with raw materials for technological healing elixir (healing salves). After creating 10 batches of healing salves using the tools he is carrying, he decides to search the place more. Thomas and Virgil soon, found a cave. When they entered they found many giant rats inside they managed to kill it, afterward they observed the cave, the cave doesn't seemed to be inhabited by animal as they found many barrel which are either empty or filled it items, magical, neutral and technological alike. They decides to investigate the cave a bit more in hope of finding someone who can help them.
