I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship, so I Became a Space Mercenary

After returning to Dawntress to escort Scratch Owls' ship, we decided to contact Colonel Serena for the time being.

... can you say it again?

Colonel Serena's head aching voice resounded in Black Lotus' resting area.

"I have gained multiple data caches that could lead to the identification of the coordinates of the Star Thief's base from the data storage that was pulled from the destroyed Star Thief." May is still analyzing it, but if you want, I will hand over the encryption key that is known to be parsing the data, and the data storage itself at the moment. "

Helping Screech Owls to extract loot from the Starfleet wreckage, we were able to retrieve multiple data stores in addition to the various pieces of equipment in front of the junk. Mei's scrutiny of the data storage returned revealed something similar to what she had just explained to Colonel Serena.

{...... Actually, are you connected to the Space Bandit? On the first day of the crusade - will you bring such critical information before noon? ”

"That's not how it is. Think common sense... I can't help but get it anyway." I'm not bad. "

This is probably because of my bad luck or strange destiny, but I can't interpret it in that spiritual direction. That said, I have to admit that it's hard to turn a blind eye to my strange fate or to attract trouble.

{Hah... well, that's fine. It's good to get to work, isn't it? If you could destroy the Space Bandits every minute and every second faster, you wouldn't have gone beyond that. "

"Colonel Sakusu." I know what you're talking about. "

Please send me the data storage here. I will transfer the port number.

"Eye Imam"

Salute and end the transmission. They immediately sent me the port number to use on the ship's supply transport system, so I've beamed it to May. May will now send the data to Colonel Selena for data storage and analysis.

“What should I do?”

I'm sure the army will be coming to the base raid, so I'll have to wait until then.

"Is that all right?" If you don't work properly, won't you get scolded by Serena-sama? "

“The discovery and surrender of data storage has done us no more work, and we can make a lot of money by destroying it at the time of the homestead raid.”

Tina and Whisker were probably busy fixing up the gear they had captured for a while, and the Black Lotus Hangar was filling up. Surprisingly, it's a laser cannon.

"Of course it's important to work seriously, but it's also important to avoid unnecessary risks. It's good if you can even make a lot of money in the end."

We're not righteous warriors fighting evil, we're mercenaries crushing bandits to win bounty. That's all it takes to make money in the end. I didn't want to earn the battle results for a purpose. As a mercenary, you've already become the highest ranking platinum runner, so you don't have to worry about your contribution to the mercenary guild day after day.

Even if you avoid the risk, you can still come from the other side.

"Don't say that... whatever it is, you're tired."

"Yes, yes, thank you."

I think it's refreshing in the shower of the Black Lotus, and when I thrust my fist at Elma, she sits side by side on the sofa where we're sitting, lightly matching her own fist. My left and right sides are hardened by Mimi and Kugi, so Elma is next to Kugi.

"How did it go? The battlefield has been alone for a long time."

"After all, I feel lonely or anxious." I have to do it all by myself, and it's a huge burden. I called Mimi several times during the battle. "

"Hmm. Would you like to ride with Mimi for a while?" It's going to be a good experience for Mimi, too. "

"Nh, I'll stop." In the meantime, I'll get used to the current environment. "

I see. Well, it's going to be Mimi's training, of course.

Keep in mind that Elma did not notice the gaze of Clinch and Mimi, or the gaze of the pressure piercing her left cheek. I think it's necessary to improve my skills, but when I thought about it, my phone started ringing calls. Was it against the Captain Souls of Scratch Owls? I exchanged the contact information when I talked to you earlier.

"Hiro, is something wrong?"

Souls. No, I'd like to take them to Meshi with me. Thank you for your help, so let me buy you a drink. "

"Fine. I can't drink because I'm downstairs, but we have three big drinkers." It's going to be expensive, isn't it?

It doesn't matter. Just the loot I got from the cosmic bandits, we didn't come back hand in hand.

So Scratch Owls has won some kind of loot in an unexplored system... Oh, I hate to hear that right now. It's because of my imagination. Anyway, I felt that it would be better to pull the Screech Owls away from the [cargo] as soon as possible.

"Then don't hesitate to have a feast." Seven of us... no, there's only six of us to eat and drink. I don't drink and eat alone. "

{Don't you eat and drink...? Well, that's fine. I'll send you a rendezvous point.

Souls sends me information about a restaurant on board Dorntress. Hmm? Well, it doesn't seem like a suspicious place. It's not unlikely that you're planning something pretending to be friendly, so you just have to be careful. I'm in a position to be responsible for the safety of my crew as captain.

"Okay, locally. I'll be on my way when I'm ready, so I'll give you a little time."

Well, what do you say in an hour?

"So let's go... so let's go with the Screech-Owls."

"Hmm... I'm a little worried, though."

Mimi shows a slightly difficult color.

"Oh, I was entangled with the operator over there." I need to get away from my side. "

Then it seems that we should all stay close to Hiro.

"Let's stick together. Stick. Kugi-chan is also sticky."

Servant, stick around? Is that it?

Mimi and Kugi stick to me from left and right. Yeah, I'm so glad, but I feel like I'm getting a little over the edge from the boulder.

"Hiro's in trouble." That's why you have to take care of me, Tina, and Whiskey. "

"Drinking is self-defense to a certain extent, so please do yourself a favor..."

I just have a bad feeling about their cargo, so don't put any more effort into me. Please.
