"You… don't happen to have a phone with you. Do you, Sir?"
"...A what?"
And with those words and the view of the beach in front of him, Rhys just fully confirmed what level of technology this world he was in now was — from the little bits of information Joseph told him, this world should be much older than his.
At first, when they were slowly docking on the beach, Rhys thought that the place was just some sort of small fishing village — and that's why it looked like that. But now that he was stepping off the boat, he quickly noticed the utter lack of any sort or sign of electricity around the village.
There were no powerlines at all, and no one was using any sort of engine to power their boats. Of course, it could also just mean that they were just far away from civilization — but when he asked for a phone and Mikkos looked like he absolutely had no idea what that was, that was it.
Is this... a completely new book?
