I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship, so I Became a Space Mercenary
# 099 Before the storm
No matter how free a mercenary is, once hired he is a hired person in the meantime. I can't say anything to my employer, and I'm in the first place with the Imperial nobility, who is also a noble Earl, a senior noble. Asking such a person, "I have a feeling that you and this minion are likely to betray you. What kind of reaction will be returned if you say ... It is scary just to imagine. You may suddenly pull out your sword and come to your discretion.
"So it was Captain Hiro who couldn't say anything."
Tap the screen while sending the message, and discard the unnecessary hand.
"My grandfather seemed to be very alert about the uncle's attack. I guess you don't have to worry ... "
With such a message, a stamp with an expression that looks like a deformed creature like a black cat is sent. Hmmm, Chris looks like a solid strut.
"I'm fine! Even if there is something, Hiro will do something for him. "
A stamp with a squirrel-like bicep pose is sent with such a message. The bill that Mimi cuts while saying so is very bold. But I don't know why.
"How much Hiro's skill is good, but there's a limit ... well, I'll probably do it somehow."
A stamp is sent with a message like a comical monocular alien sighing and drinking a glass of wine. And the cut card is ──.
"Oh, that's Ron" "Me too" "Why! ? 』
A stamp is sent from a monocular alien that emits a beam from his eyes and burns the city. No, Elma isn't bad, but it's somehow unlucky. It's like a turtle and it's almost impossible to come to a wait ... or maybe it's bad luck. Gambling seems to be very weak. Or rather weak. I feel like I'm only 3rd or 4th since I started playing with this Mahjong app. The overall score is by far the best. By the way, the very top is Mimi. Although it looks like a mess, it doesn't have to wait for me at all, and the blow is strangely heavy. In fact, it may be the owner of terrible fortune. My current location where I play while exchanging messages with small information terminals is the cockpit. And Mimi and Elma are taking a break. Krishna always puts people in the cockpit, even while traveling in the hyperlane. Mimi and Elma will be in the dining room or in their own room. May, who is not particularly tired, sits in the sub-operator seat. He hasn't participated in the conversation, but he seems to be viewing card Mahjong as an observer.
"I won't lose in a racing game! 』
The comical alien is bitter while leaning forward. I'm so frustrated ... Well, at the moment, I can't do anything but play around like this. Basically, while traveling in the hyperlane, it automatically sails and is not attacked. By the way, it is moving from the system of Jiegle to the system of Wellic. Next to the Werrick system is the territory of Count Daleinwald? Is the Comat star system. Next is the final destination, the Dexar system. Despite some wariness when warping out to the Zigle system, the lord of the system and Earl Daleinwald seemed to be in a friendly relationship, and the system troops were escorting during the journey. So it passed through the Jigle system without incident, and to this day. By the way, the transit time from the Jiggle system to the Werick system is about 10 hours. I guess just one hour after entering the hyperlane, right now.
"Master. If I'm on the move while in the hyperlane, I'll do it."
As he continues to play mahjong while exchanging messages with small information terminals, May has said so.
"I'm sure it's perfect if I leave it to Mei, but I don't use it too much ..." "I don't mind at all. I don't get tired unlike organic life forms." Well, maybe you'll just let me get used to Mei's existence, or you don't have to do anything while moving in the hyperlane. "I don't have it." "Would you like to get along with both of us?" "It's also about continuing to live a ragged life. I think that's the best way to do it. And I will fall. "
Neither Mimi nor Elma is a beautiful girl who is unmistakable to me. Of course, Mei is so beautiful. I am confident that if I drown in that relationship I will not be able to get out. It may already be too late.
"Is that kind of thing?" "That's what it is. Strange story, if you have my assets right now, you'll be able to get rid of the pirate, occasionally eat delicious food every day, and have a life of three people. If you get into that kind of life, you can't get out of it.
I feel like I'm already living close to that, but I still haven't forgotten my dream of building a detached house with a garden in a planetary settlement, my dream. Any immediate short-term goal is to purchase and maintain the mother ship using this reward. Because investing to make more money is important.
"I think that kind of life is good, but if your husband says so, please tell me if you want to live like that. I will do my best to support you."
May's voice was so serious. May, who is seriously inviting him to the path of corruption, is, in a way, the scariest crew, and may be a crew that can't be guarded .... It might be a little thought that his service spirit is too high. No, can you listen to me because I have a high loyalty? I'll be fine if I'm solid. Maybe.

The fleet safely reached the Werwick system and passed through it without leaving colonies within it. Count Daleinwald seems to be doing well with neighboring lords in the Werick system, as well as in the Jiegle system, as the star troops have brought in security forces.
"Warp out after 12 hours ... take a nap in turn?" "I'm in the cockpit while traveling in the hyperlane, so why don't you take a break? The risk is the highest after the warp, so it's better to be in good shape. "" No, it's up to Mei alone ... "
Mimi interrupted my words when she opened her mouth to refrain.
"Hiro, wouldn't it be better to ask Mei? If you analyze Mei's high risk, I think that's really true. "I think so, too. I think Hiro is too shy about strange things. I don't know if I'll push all the trouble to Mei, but I'm too careful and her characteristics Isn't it rude not to make use of it? "" ... is that something? "" Is that kind of thing? "
May nodded with a click while saying exactly the same lines I said yesterday.
"I'm glad to recognize my personality as one of my intellect, but I'm a maid Lloyd. It's more appropriate to treat me like that because my master is my purpose as a maid Lloyd I mean, I'm happy. "
May nodded again. Well, it's difficult. From my point of view, Mei is usually a beautiful maid like Mimi and Elma .... Except for the mechanical parts of the ears, it is too mechanically empty. No, you know she's a machine from how you came here, right? In the first place, when I first saw the maid Lloyd in Sierra II, the impression of a beautiful maid was like a Uhohoi. It may be difficult for Mei to fully identify her as a machine unless some sort of attack damages the epidermis and causes mekabare. Just knowing her temperature and softness.
"Well then, let's leave the cockpit to Mei ... but you're taking a break."
I woke up asleep only three hours ago. He just woke up after taking a nap before warping out to the Comat system.
"It's not the last supper, but would you like to eat a bit of luxurious rice, take a bath, and relax in the room?"
In other words, you want to "slowly" in the room after satisfying your appetite and squeezing.
"Yeah, that ... in general terms?"
Perhaps I read the back of my words, Elma turns her face a little reddish.
"I think that's fine too. Let's relax with three people today."
Mimi agrees with Elma's suggestion, whether she knows the meaning of the exchange between me and Elma or not. Well, three people. I'm interested. I was drowning in the sunshine yesterday, but I'm going to turn my palm back. If you come back without drowning, you'll be fine.
"Okay, let's relax with three people." "Cho, Mimi, a little." "Let's relax. Let's start with rice! Let's start with artificial meat today!"
Leaving the fuss of Elma, Mimi and I start working to get Tetsujin Fifth, a high-performance automatic cooker, to cook a delicious meal. May was staring at us with a look that seemed to be somehow fun.
