Fushi no Kami: Rebuilding Civilization Starts with a Village #8

Plot

With Sir George fallen, Ash is left alone to face off against the mighty werewolf that has awoken within Itsutsu. If he fails, countless townspeople will die—but it’s not long before his injuries begin to stack up. Still, he fights on, driven by a determination to live and realize not just his own dreams, but those of his many new friends.

In the battle’s aftermath, Ash bonds with Hermes, a quiet, somewhat surly kid who also attends the Military Minors Association. As it turns out, the key to making Hermes open up is to get him talking about his life’s goal: constructing a flying machine. Remembering the airplanes that once soared high up in the air in his past life, Ash is enthused. And when his desire to build a better tomorrow and Hermes’s dream to fly through the sky collide, the flames of their passion light up a path to a promising future—one Ash is desperate to reach.
