Episode 12 Pirate Assault

True snow from the sky was shook by a large sailboat, exposed to a pleasant sea breeze and staring at the horizon.

Mayuki-san, you look happy.

It's Seira, the star guardian who's traveling with us. Her clear blue eyes are staring at the true snow.

"Yeah, I just found a little clue!

"That's right. But is that redhead really... Asakura-san?

"Hmm, I don't know... But if you're concerned, you'll want to check it out."

"Fufu, looks like Mayuki."

"Right! Ahahah! Ah, but there aren't many people aboard this ship."

"Well, why?

While I was having that conversation, I heard a good man like a sailor.

"Hey ladies, don't you know?

"What, you don't know?

"You're headed to the Anjax region of the East Continent, right?

"Yes"

"Originally, I would enter from the [Mortes Sea] and follow the usual route to the [Gibraltar Sea]."

"Is there a problem?

When the sailor shrugged his shoulders,

"It's high tide time, and there's been a lot of vortex. That's why this ship is headed for the Rose Blood Sea."

"I'm sure it's there...."

Ah, the Red Sea, as the saying goes.

The Red Sea means that the color of the sea is bright red as a letter. In addition, there are violent creatures in the [Rose Blood Sea], which is a highly dangerous sea. A sailor seems to be on a path everyone avoids.

"Really, wait for the tide to heal and choose a route, but that's not how it works."

Really?

"Ah, now this ship has something to offer the Emperor."

"Something?

"I don't know that either. Anyway, it seems that the other party told me to get it to [Ginseng Port] in the" Anjax Region "as soon as possible, so I decided to sail by pressing the force. Ladies and gentlemen, you've embarked on this ship without my knowledge. The other customers canceled the house."

Looks like we got on a hell of a ship. They wanted to leave the continent as soon as possible, so they hurried aboard a ship close to being dispatched.

If you stay too long, there is a movement from the [Kingdom of Rustya] and it is possible that they will find you. That's why I heard that there was a ship headed for the East Continent, a destination, and I left it to myself without looking into it.

"Well, hopefully everything will be all right."

That said, the sailor's man left laughing. For a while, the two of them remained solidified, but the real snow floated with a laugh.

"... did you fail?

"Hmm... you moved a little too fast."

"But it's not decided that something will happen, and I'm not a sailor, but let's hope the voyage ends safely!

"That's right. But I wonder, what the hell is on this ship?

"Yeah, I do care about that. I wonder what it is."

"That said, there was a restricted area in the cabin, but now I think it's stored there."

"Oh, there it is. I was wondering if ships are like that, but maybe Seyla's right."

When they were talking like that, they discovered a spot that was still a long way ahead, but with a faint red stain on the sea.

That's the Red Sea.

It's really red.

They are upsetting their cheeks because they remember seeing the red sea for the first time. But there was a small shadow in front of the scene, which was supposed to be just the horizon.

All of a sudden, the sailors began to move in a hurry. Some of them seem to be bluishing their faces.

"What's wrong with you?

Seyla tilted her neck at the sight. True snow is also staring stunnedly. When I asked what happened to the sailor who passed in front of me,

"Pirate ship!

The sailor left because of his impatient expression. True snow and Seyla looked at each other and said in unison.

"... a pirate ship?

Rapidly changed course, and from there, the boats of the true snow turned back the way they came. However, the opponent's ship seems to be moving faster, and it is being caught up with step by step.

True snow and sailors are also known as pirate ships in cartoons and movies. They wondered if the sail really had a skull on it, but unfortunately not, the sail supported by the main mast depicted a bird holding a golden object like an apple with its feet.

There are a lot of people on that ship who look rough. Then the sailor began to leak his words.

Some of the whispers identified the name of the pirate.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The pirate's name is Eagle of Dawn. I understood that the bird depicted on that sail was an eagle.

The ships caught up by the pirates in an instant were lined up right next to each other, and the pirates came aboard one after the other.

"Mr. Mayuki!

"Yeah, that brute needs a little punishment!

Saying true snow, Seyla nodded forcefully. They've been summoned here [Orb], and they're experiencing this kind of wasteland, so they're not in such a hurry.

But when the snow tries to move,

"Don't move!

The voices echo from the pirate ship. Looking at it, the real snow with the bandana wrapped around her head and the girl who wasn't so different were wearing arms and royalty.

She tied her orange hair behind her back. The expression and appearance seem to be active without feeling any makeup at all, but it has a sluggish body and a small face, and it has a body shape like a model. And most of all, a long tail hidden from her ass.

Why is there such a young girl in the snow for a moment? I thought so, but I recall that it was not an unusual sight in this world.

The world is highly divided between rich and poor, and the poor do not choose the means to live. That is why children often attack the rich and powerful as thieves.

"Listen, this ship is now under Atashi's control! Atashi is Captain Eura of the Eagle of Dawn! Stay away from the blade! I promise I won't take my life if I stay quiet!

I didn't think she was the pirate captain. The same goes for Seyla, who suddenly solidified.

"The reason we're here is to get this ship loaded!

Then the door to the cabin where the snowmen were riding opened. Then two men appeared.

"That's interesting. Then you think you can defeat us? Pirate, huh?

A great sense of intimidation is being unleashed from the men. But Eura smiles.

"You're the guardians of the cargo."

The two men are also smiling lightly. One is a large swordsman with an atmosphere that gives him the image of a strong warrior, the other wears a robe and looks like a magician.

Eagle of Dawn , I've heard about it, but it looks like a woman and a kid is wearing a head, and Taka knows it.

As the man said, one of the pirates beside him said, "What the hell! With a sword in his hand, he slashed it. But the swordsman pulled himself aside and fell his fist on the man's face and hit him on the floor.

You're strong, that one.

Seyla whispers into the snow.

"Yeah, it looks like we're not gonna make it."

When the two of them are at peace, they hear a laugh coming from the pirate ship.

"Ahhahahaha! You're doing it!

"Yes, yes! Still part of the proud Eagle of Dawn!

Two men appear next to Eura. Both have strong bodies. I also see scratches that don't disappear anywhere.

"Ah, my head, I'm here with Gaji."

"Yes, please take the head away from me."

"... I left it to you."

When Eura jumped up from the spot, she boarded the ship and walked straight out towards the cabin.

"Hey, little girl, who told you to let me go?

The swordsman pulled his sword against Eura in hostility.

"We are."

Pirates appear behind the swordsman and behind the sorcerer. The swordsmen had to deal with the pirates whispering. And Eura disappears into the cabin.

In a strange situation, the true snow and Seyla thought, just watching quietly. In the meantime, the men's battle became fierce in front of them.

It appears to be almost mutually reinforcing, repeating offensive defenses that do not give way to each other. The swordsman's opponent also pulled out his sword and repeatedly confronted him.

And the magician also attacked the pirate using water magic, but the opponent's movements continued to be smooth and gentle.

"The pirates! You don't know anything!

The swordsman smiled as he confronted the pirates.

"Oh, what are you talking about?

"You think we're the only ones protecting it?

"... what?

A pirate man glitters his eyebrows. The swordsman swings out the sword and blows the man away. The man also presses his tongue to keep his posture from breaking.

"You must be wearing a proper amulet. The strongest of us."

A pirate listening silently to the swordsman. Apparently, I thought something unexpected was beginning to happen to the pirates, but it certainly appeared in the eyes of the snow. Listening to the swordsman's words, the pirate's face smiled slightly...
