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

# 188 Match in front of you: The White Soldier War Department

Three days later came the morning of the White Soldiers' War section. The last three days have been really mild - not.

"My name is Shunji Guiden! I want to sign you up for a match!

"My name is White Rose! I sign up for a duel with you! I don't mind a mock match!

"Lord Hiro, let's train! The Kingsguard knights are waiting!

The white blades who weren't in the tournament, the suspicious ones in white costumes with rose motifs on white masks, the unfortunate beautiful lady Kingsguard knights pushed me to the sword match, the battle, the training, whatever. May never happened. You're telling me you're busy getting ready for the White Soldier War section!?

Or guards! Or a Kingsguard! Snap out of that white suspicious man! What are you doing!

"No, Michiel - Lord White Rose has a clear identity."

You found out who you are, White Rose.

'Decide not to ask. He is the mysterious swordsman White Rose. It has nothing to do with the Duke of Glazes family. Good?'

Oh, I see. The Duke's bonbong is doing a findout cosplay, but nobody's gonna get stuck, so you can't get stuck.

'Cause you're basically not the one who does bad things... or you're a real hero because you use your own information network to pin down nobles who do bad things. It's rare for us to wipe our asses by doing something terrible. "

I see. Is it a position like an old lord who occasionally makes inadvertent mistakes? The Duke has power. By the way, White Rose was stunned after eating herself by a maid who showed up late, and was taken. He was another cool maid droid with a different hobby than May. I feel like White Rose and I can be good friends.

I prepared myself for the White Soldier War while I appropriately embellished them. This was surprisingly cumbersome, and it was cumbersome only to have to make and submit a list of what things to bring in beforehand.

Well, I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna go without my own weight. There will be so much to apply for. On a chubby note, it seems that the host imperial chamber will cover the cost of consumables such as grenades, ammunition, and energy packs. I'm gonna blow a bubble in that fuckin 'emperor with the bill amount!

No, you can't. Yeah, I can't. I don't care how much you spend on consumables for the White Soldiers. Tens of thousands of Enel would be a good place to spend it, no matter how much. Well, let's just say we do what we have to do without thinking about anything extra.

"Dear Hiro, are you okay?

Mimi looks up at my face from next door worried as she says so.

This is a training facility for tournament venues. A large number of spectator seats and so on have been set up rapidly for the tournament, and the look of it is as if it were a stadium or something.

There is naturally no such thing as audience seating, as events and so on are not usually held at military training facilities. It doesn't exist, but the boulder space empire has a different scale of what it does because it says it used the training facility's battlefield generation capability to rapidly create audiences for this tournament.

"Oh, I'm fine. 'Cause I've just been thinking in the last three days."

"haha...... that was tough"

That's what I say and laugh bitterly. Mimi seems to have had a hard time getting invited to the tea party by Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada, as she does every day in Mimi. I didn't get to see much of the tea party because it was tough with the idiots who pushed me through today's preparations, but they seemed to be getting along well.

By the way, Elma was the most relaxed of the three of us. He seemed to read on his tablet device while sipping tea quietly, or hang out with Mimi and attend a tea party with Her Royal Highness the Princess Luciada.

"I don't think you'll get hurt, but be careful."

"Okay. Be very careful."

The opponent is talking about combat bots. Caution should certainly be exercised because in some cases the energy cells of the power source may explode. They're equipped with something for training to keep participants from getting hurt when it comes to arming, so you don't seem worried.

"Then I'm coming. Let's go, May."

"Yes, sir"

I took Mae out of the private audience where she was waiting - and Elma stopped me.

"Wait a minute, why are you taking May?

"Huh? Because it's my gear."

"What?"

"What?"

Elma and Mimi turned their eyes round and raised their surprise.

"Now we've done it! This is the second tournament of your match, the White Soldier War section! The rules are as explained earlier! Athletes will use their gear to break through the harsh battlefield! Of course, far-fetched behavior is a death sentence, where the challenger's challenge ends. If a death decision is made for both, the wins and losses will be determined by the score earned by both at that point!

The announcer's well-attended voice echoes in a training facility equipped with an audience, and the cheers of the audience - presumably of nobility - wind up. In the meantime, I was wearing my own power armor, mixed up with May and waiting at the training facility.

This time my gear is a power armor RIKISHI mk-iii and a two-handed hatchet gun. And the back weapon mount is equipped with an additional armed plasma grenade launcher. This is an auto grenade launcher that fires using a power armor targeting system, loaded with plasma grenades that cause an ultra-high heat plasma explosion. Most obstacles can be destroyed with this guy.

RIKISHI is also equipped with a number of other stationary weapons, such as shoulder laser guns, and this first revealed hatchet gun is a laser shotgun that can be used in melee combat.

"Come on, it's Captain Hiro in the spotlight... it looks kind of bad - you're an intimidating looking power armor"

"Hmm, that's a model you've never seen. The heavily armored power type, probably the type that also supports the battle against power armor."

"I see, and for some reason, he seems to have a maid droid."

"According to the dossier at hand, three days ago he inquired about the tournament operation as to whether it was possible to bring the maid droid as equipment, and the result of the consultation was admitted that there was no reasonable reason to be able to withdraw in particular"

"I see, but I don't think a maid droid is basically meant for combat... she's kind of got a terrific weapon"

What May is holding is a laser launcher modified by the mechanic sisters. Specifically, it's a bit of a vicious looking exterior mounted so that it's okay for May to punch his enemies thoroughly with a laser launcher. The weight has doubled, but there's nothing wrong with the amount Mae handles. Naturally, the limiters that were installed during this tournament have also been released.

"Sounds like it. We're talking about a lot of female crews on his ship, so maybe it's customized so that escorts can do the same."

"I see... but then some participants would like to put in a battle bot?

"Since the rules prohibit the entry of combat bots. Captain Hiro has managed to poke a hole in the rules."

That's what the military-like man in the commentary says and makes me laugh bitterly. Well, May has a body price of 470,000 Enel as a result of customization, and more if you include other options and equipment. Blah, if you buy combat bots for the same amount, you'll get more numbers. I wonder if I can buy a plane that lightly outperforms May in terms of performance. It may be lightly through the realm of insanity to spend so much money on maid roids that are originally purchased for care and play purposes around you.

"I don't regret it."

"Your husband?

"No, it's nothing. Wield your full strength."

"Yes, leave it to me"

"Ha!

Indiscriminately fire a hatchet gun of both hands and sweep the battle bots unfolding in the aisle with a diffuse laser.

"Ugh!

He slaps and crushes a hatchet gun on a combat bot that suddenly pops out of the side of the aisle. May is also luxuriously wielding a modified laser launcher, crushing battle bots. Are you sure you're okay with that? Is the contents broken?

"May, what's your goal?

Two walls over there.

Copy that.

A plasma grenade launcher blows up the wall, breaks into the interior and wipes out a hatchet gun with both hands and a laser gun with both shoulders, plus a laser released from Mae's laser launcher waiting for the battle bots in the room. You came in from a place that wasn't the original entrance, and you were a moment late in responding to us. This moment divides wins and loses.

"Captain Hiro is the goalie! Opponents are still in the middle of stage two! Whoa, it's retaliation. Did you see the reversal from here as impossible?"

"I guess so. This rule makes it significantly more advantageous to attack quickly than to score on the road. Emphasis on awkwardness Too much death decisions can be tough, but reversal is almost impossible if you score first with an overwhelming speed difference without receiving a death decision. So you admitted to a clean loss."

Announcers and commentary military personnel explain a series of streams.

"But Captain Hiro is handy."

"I guess you also have that made-up roid and powerful power armor ability, but you've got a lot more training than that. Positioning is accurate and you are not lost in your tactical judgment of the situation. He can also do well as an Imperial Air Force Marine. You must want our troops."

Give me a break. I'm absolutely sorry for the days of the White Soldiers mixed with the Marines of Gachimucchio.

Always like this, I won the White Soldier War club. Yeah, I knew May was in an irregular mood.

"You're good as a knight and a soldier."

"Yeah, well... it's an honor to compliment you"

Dinner on that day, which was also excellent in the White Soldiers' Department, was not the usual dinner for the three of us, but a dinner at Sassi with Her Royal Highness the Princess Luciada. Precisely in the form that I was the only one called to dine with Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada.

It was after the tournament that a Kingsguard suddenly arrived and conveyed a very thankful message from His Majesty the Emperor that he would "allow a meeting with my granddaughter as a reward for this time".

Why don't you say no? and when I asked Elma and May, they told me to give it up because it was bad. So this is the situation.

"Even so, Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada is beautiful today... or should I say something?

In fact, Her Royal Highness the Empress Luciada is wearing the dress and ornaments the Empress deserves and is very beautiful with her thin makeup. Don't get the expression "beautiful" or "beautiful" firmer than "cute". Mimi can only be cute no matter how hard she tries, so I guess this is still something with the elegance and details of what she was born with.

"Thank you, and I'll give it back"

He said, "I'm tired of hearing all that crap."

Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada just smiles at my light mouth. I see.

"So just for the record, could the mechanic of this meeting be Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada?

"What makes you think that?

"With all due respect, Your Majesty, the flashy emperor is calm enough to take it as a reward."

Because His Majesty the Emperor is going to give you a more flashy and annoying gift. You think you're going to give Pong ownership of some habitable unexplored planet? No, you seem serious. Please don't. Really.

"Is your meeting with me plain"

"I'm not saying that. And please don't be so cute when you can swell your cheeks that way"

Unhappy puffiness and swelling cheeks turn the impression of beauty and beauty into something adorable at once. You look really like Mimi when you break your expression.

"I didn't have a chance to talk to you slowly, so I asked His Majesty to create an opportunity for me. I'm sorry you didn't like it."

"Don't be stubborn, it's not like you didn't like it."

"Is that true? But Captain Hiro. You're avoiding me, aren't you?

"... uh"

That's what Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada said with a wrinkle between her eyebrows all of a sudden, and she turns away.

"That's right, Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada is too much like Mimi... I'm having trouble working even with disrespect not allowed by some applause, so I was taking the distance, yes"

"What do you mean?

"I mean, that's how you get a lot of effort between your brows, because you're going to caress your head saying you're sorry by accident... and I'm not good at saluting you"

Regardless, I can speak politely to the crowd. To the crowd. I'm just anxious for boulders when my opponent becomes the princess of the Space Empire. I had trouble getting swords pulled out by Kingsguard knights with one word, so I kept them as close as possible.

"I want to talk to you, too. You don't have to worry about words. Regardless of the aristocratic opponent, I will not force a mercenary like you or a normal girl like Mimi to speak obliviously, nor will I let anyone around me say anything."

"Thanks for that."

I say so, Your Highness. I've already gotten caught up in some weird stuff about your language. Now I don't think you can do better to tell me not to be on guard.

"In the meantime, I don't mean for Her Royal Highness to have any quarantine. One way or another, I was turning myself in."

"Then that kind of care is unnecessary in the future. You can treat me the same way you treat Mimi and Elma when it comes to language."

"... you believe that, don't you?

Confirm with a chilling glance at the female Kingsguard knight with a sharp gaze on this one. The gaze of the female Kingsguard Knight - there seems to be no Isolde today - has become sharper, but Her Royal Highness immediately granted forgiveness, so I decided not to care.

"Yeah, trust me"

That being said, when Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada turned her gaze to the female Kingsguard knight who was staring at me, the female Kingsguard knight slipped her gaze softly. It is the royal power of boulders.

"Then excuse me... what kind of story do you want?

"Let me tell you from the beginning, in your words, about the battle against crystalline life forms."

"OK. But I'm not a bard or anything, so don't expect me to be able to talk to you, okay?

"No, I hope not"

"Yep... tough."

To Her Royal Highness Princess Luciada, who smiled and said unforgiving things, I started talking about the crystalline battle with a scratch of my head.
