"He was an idiot! It's magic in this situation!

The pirates pointed at me and laughed as they began to draw a long magical formation in front of them.

"I heard you gave up!

"Kill her and have fun with her!

They're all brain-weather.

"Huh?! You idiot! Kill him now!!

"Huh, Captain?

"What's the rush for such an idiot..."

Shit!

Captain Pakles and the others are running linearly between the pirates as they pull out the sword they put on their hips.

Oraaaaa!

Gaki!

The sword is blocked by a slash knife and sparks are scattered.

"Oraaaaa!!

Gungan!

"You're kidding... with the captain attacking me?!

Prevents all swords from being sworn out one after another. It's only named Captain, and it's overwhelmingly strong compared to other pirates. I feel something like a sword somewhere.

"Shit!"

Immediately before my magic team is complete, Captain Pakles will be at arm's length. On the contrary, Nil approaches me right next to him.

Green light bursts out of the magic formation.

Zan Zan Zan Zan Zan!

"Hmm, what happened...?

"Ko... pu..."

"Hey...?

Bottoms up! Bottoms up!

"Hyi?!

When a pirate tries to touch one of his allies, his whole body falls apart in front of him and falls back in surprise.

Advanced Wind Magic, Blade Wind. Random attack magic that randomly fires large, sharp wind blades in a hemispherical range. Magic with a slight difficulty in penetration, but invisible and capable of attacking a fairly wide area, it compensates for the difficulty and brings an extra effect.

If you look at the sea of blood in front of you, anyone will feel it.

"You did it..."

Grab a friend's head in both hands and squeeze out the frustrated voice of a bloodstained papulse.

"I think you can use your friends as shields and let me bore you.

A papule that throws a companion from the neck up onto the deck. A few others seem lucky enough to survive, but it is safe to say that the match on deck has already arrived.

"If you're still on your way, you'll have to deal with him till the end?

………………

Doppan!

"... huh?!

Suddenly, a water splash rises from the surface of the water, and the hull shakes greatly.

The pulx sees it and starts laughing happily.

"Kuku... don't lick a pirate ship.

The effects of the battle that would be taking place underneath the hull. Although the battle was close to an ambush, underwater vigilance was almost zero, but we cannot avoid fighting the Mermaids as much as we are pirating in this waters. Parks' pirate ships should be structured to specialize in fighting the Mermaids.

Doppan!

A column of water rises from the surface of the sea and water splashes.

"... this is..."

When I wiped the water droplets on my cheeks, I smelled a bad smell and my skin became red and rough.

One of the measures for the Fisherman tribe. The pirates call it a fish killer. The side of the hull opens up like a red head, and the structure is scattered over the sea. If this fish killer is sprayed in the water, the fish people will be unable to breathe in the sea.

When she couldn't breathe, she threw magic and arrows through the small, openable window next to the hull. This is the pirate's usual method.

Sai told me that pirate ships in this waters were definitely loaded with this fish killer. What I've heard is that rhinoceros have a countermeasure to this fish murder.

Nothing seems to dissolve in the sea, and after being scattered, the Alliance is lined up with Fish Killer processing quests. And while I was processing it, I realized that there was a beast adventurer. Fish killers melt away when they heat up.

I can't use it at all unless it's quite fire magic underwater. No one seems to have secretly used magic to deal with drowsiness, and they haven't noticed it before.

We have caught the poacher at the tip of the arrow, thinking we could use it to wipe out the Pulkes pirates. It's a boat for crossing.

There are now five Fishman tribes on board that have arrived with us, and they must have stopped the pirates from breaking in. In other words, I think the waves and the water level were lifted because the rhinoceros exercised the super fire magic in the sea, and the vaporized water caused a water vapor explosion... In short, it is not caused by pirates. Captain Parks doesn't think so.

"What are we gonna do? You don't want me to help you?

"... it's my job to be here.

"I think we're in a lot of trouble down there, huh?

"I don't know.

Pulks doesn't lose his nervous attitude while being pushed to a disadvantage. I hate that smile.

…………

"...?!

Suddenly, after a cold run to the back, a few pointy stone sticks fall from above.

Gagga, gagga!

Standing perpendicular to my position on the deck. He would have died if he hadn't avoided it.

A few black robes appear in front of Captain Pakles, with black cloth covering his mouth. They attacked us in the city.

……

………

He is looking at us with quiet, observational eyes. The Black Robes.

Master...

"These guys. Looks like you've been watching.

"... I can't avoid a blow right now. Was it as heavy a story as a pirate?

"What?!

"Hey, don't touch them!

One of the pirates approached the black men, ignoring the captain's restraint. The difference in power is more obvious than seeing fire… A man who has done reckless things has to pay for his life.

Gotto...

Once the black robe twitched, the man approaching arrived kneeling on the deck.

"But... please..."

Pirates who scratch their throats painfully, shed tears from their open eyes, and opened their mouths wide, will die a few seconds later. Looking at the small wound on the cheek, it appears to have abnormal immediate effects and quite powerful poison.

"What are these guys..."

"Damn it... you don't listen to me at all. They're business associates.

"Dealer...?

"Shit..."

"I don't mind this much. They're finished here anyway.

"Shut up and do your job.

"They're as boring as ever.

………

A sword technique that is not just a swinging sword, but is completely specialized in killing others. These black robes have it. Just a few of them makes the air heavier and colder than dozens of pirates.

When one of the leaders kicks the deck, the black robes spreads to the left and right. The pirates are pointing their blades at us.

Shh! Shh!

The approaching man sticks out the knife he had under the robe. Just plunder and die.

Shh shh!

Avoid knife blades that come out many times and turn to counterattack, but the opponent keeps doing the same.

I know that if you put the blade together, a short knife will push you down like the last time. Even though it is quite troublesome, there is a man with a sword waiting behind him, and he works well together to launch an attack.

In addition, the blades and magic of the pirates are rolled out one after the other from the side, forcing them to deal with it. If we try to defeat the pirates first, we'll be targeted.

I can't lose my temper in a careful fight... but I feel uncomfortable somewhere.

When I fought all over the city, I felt more life-threatening in my sword. I don't know if I'm ready to die anytime soon... but I don't feel it with this sword.

"What are you after...?

……

Ginnh!

When he strays from the tip of the sword, he pursues the gaze of the man with the knife that enters his eyes.

………

………

It was only for a moment, but I did look at the side. Where are you looking... Nil?

I noticed it and found out where their discomfort came from.

Even if I change my posture, I'm definitely being led to turn my back on Nil. Remove the vision from Nil.

Kh!

"Nil!!!

Ginnh!

Nil was about to turn around and poke a blade at me. I can tell if I don't like it if it goes this far. They're after Nil, not me.

Nil!

"It's okay!

"... why are you targeting Nil?

…………

He doesn't seem willing to answer my question.

You're going to attack Nil, who's weaker than me, knowing he's my Achilles tendon, and use it as a shield...?

Shh! Shh!

"I don't think I have much time to think..."

If you're thinking in the storm of this attack, you'll be poisoned and killed.

Gakin!

"Ugh!!

Nil!

Looking next to Nil's voice, one of the men in the black robe uses earth magic to seal Nil's movement.

The attack on Nil was magical and prevented from being counterattacked... You mean you learned from the last battle?

While I was thinking, earth magic tied Nil's hands up.

"Cumming!

The voice leaks out of Nil's mouth due to pain. The defensive magic is reacting to cut earth magic, but the durability of earth magic is higher than the power of counterattack and cannot be destroyed.

Ugh...

I don't like Nil's voice.

I've been thinking of taking some of the pirates alive and causing damage to the ship. I knew it would be best if I could.

Until I saw the magic stretching to Nil's neck...

Baki!

When I noticed, I didn't think anything and kicked the deck as hard as I could.

Fuck!

"Ka... kahu..."

A blade penetrating the neck of a man with a fine sword who was trying to stab Nil in the air, it sounded more than a voice blocking the airway.

The two men who were opposed to me didn't make it to my movements at all, and they reacted as if they had disappeared from front of their eyes.

When I pull the slash knife out of my throat, blood comes out of the hole, and my bloody eyes stare at me under the hood.

I waved my sword without strength, but the blade didn't touch my body, and I fell down on the front.

Gashan...

A fine sword was thrown onto the deck, making a sound.

Baki!

Destroying the magic wrapped around Nil's body frees Nil from suffering.

"Uhh... gosh, gosh!

"Kisama!!

The other man who was fighting Nil pulled out his sword and ran towards me. The two men who were fighting me ran back to me. The Nil was coughing, but I managed to get up with my hands on my knees.

Hunn!

The approaching men stick out their swords and turn to quick strikes.

The three are working together with great skill and attacking each other one after another. Unlike before, it's not an attack to stop me, it's a move not to fear death.

Kim! Kim!

Play the poisoned blade and shake it down with all your might.

Bakiba Kids Gun!

A part of the deck could not withstand the impact, broke in two, and the feet of the three became unstable.

The slasher blade flashes sideways when the gap is created.

A swordsman who didn't realize it was different from the previous attack tried to take it seriously.

Gallaghari!

The sword did not break, but the body rose and flew sideways.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

When it hit the part where the cabin was supposed to be, it proceeded while destroying everything, and when it stopped, its body was bent into a jaw-drop.

"Shit...."

The remaining two will stay away from me and hide behind the pirates. He's trying to escape again. I'd like to catch him and interrogate him if I can... but I'd better not get used to it. From the moves you've made to prepare for death, you should choose death as long as you get caught. There may be others, and it would be better not to pursue them deeply.

Now let's think about what we can do with the pirates.

"They escaped!

"Shit!

Pirates wiping their foreheads and holding their swords. He still seems motivated to say that the number of people has decreased so much. Do you think Nil and I might be able to handle it?

"Nil, are you okay?

"Yes."

Nil is holding a shield and a spark toward my back.

"You protected my back. Thank goodness.

"No... this is all I can do..."

He seems depressed that he pulled his leg. Recently, Nil's mood has become a little clear.

"I don't have time to be depressed.

"... yes!

Pirates surrounding us. The sailboat is already full of worn holes, and if we destroy it any more, it will sink. The pirates will no longer have anyone to talk to if they kill any more.

"Are you willing to surrender?

"There's no way!

"I see....."

Tingling and tension are rising...

"Then one or two of your arms will be ready.

Behind the pirates, I hear voices I know.

"I'm sorry I'm late. It took me a while to get rid of the people down there.

Norha!

The appearance of Norha and her associates is accompanied by red spikes everywhere. After all, it seems that the fish killer was sprayed and successfully avoided it.

"Shit!

With Norha and a few men rising up, the pirates lose the advantage of the numbers.

"Run!"

When one of the pirates screams, some of the pirates jump out of the sailboat and jump into the sea.

Unfortunately, several people who jumped in late were caught by the hands of Norha and tied up with ropes.

You may not have to chase the jumpers, but when they jump into the water, they decide to win or lose.

No one can move faster than the Mermaids in the water.

Looking at the ocean, the bashabasha and the water droplets standing on the surface disappear one by one, caught by the rhinoceros waiting downstairs.

Still, some of them managed to reach a small sailboat with their friends, but unfortunately the boat has already been crafted. Sailboats are full of holes, and they can't make it, and because of the fish people gathering around them, they can't escape into the sea. A small sailboat of hope for escape will now look like a prison or a coffin.

A few mermaids pulled the sailboat straight to the city. It's a mobile prison.

"What happened to a captain named Pakles?

"Speaking of which... I haven't seen them since we fought the Black Robes..."

"Maybe... there were other ships?!

When I go to the edge of the ship and look at the sea, I see a single passenger boat emerge from the island at an incredible speed.

"What is that?!

"It's a wind magic boat running over the water! Did you even have that magic trick?!

Captain Pakles is on a boat that runs at the speed of its bow. He is trying to escape alone in a boat that he had hidden somewhere.

"That bastard!

"Wait, wait! Are you chasing me?!

"No, no... that speed on the boulder..."

"Then leave it to me.

………

As you dance your fingertips on the deck, a complicated magical formation gradually forms.

"Is that... an advanced magic team?

"Well, look.

When the finished magic team glows in light blue, the water surface behind the escaping boat rises sharply.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

What suddenly appeared in front of Captain Packles was a huge water wall, dozens of metres tall and hundreds of metres wide. It is an advanced water magic called a water cliff, but it takes a certain depth or the wall is difficult to use for a few seconds.

However, as you can see, the power alone is enormous, and when the wall falls, it becomes a vicious water situation.

Captain Packles, who thought he could escape, looks at the huge wall in front of him and turns from a smile to a look of despair. The large amount of seawater that fell broke down the boat into pieces, and Captain Pakles sailed where it had been drunk.

"Su... a water cliff?!

"It could have been any other magic... but given the certainty, range magic is the best, right?

"Well, of course... few of us, the Mermaids, are good at water magic...?

"I used to be in this city once. That's when I learned all sorts of water magic. Besides, it's all over now, right?

"Ah, ah. This big sailboat is run-down… quite good. After that, we'll pull all three, so rest here.

"I'll let you do that.

In the end, the pirates were wiped out and succeeded in capturing everything but the dead.

I know very well why the Mermaid King asked the Adventurer not to move his soldiers. If the knights tell us how to deceive each other like this time, it is difficult for the soldiers to fight in an appeased manner. Soldiers who have just bumped into each other straight from the front don't like it.

"You've managed... Nil. I'm sorry about that.

"No... because I'm weak..."

"No, I should have thought deeper about the possibility of being connected to the pirates when the Black Robes escaped on their own... damn it!

Dunn!

The fist that hit the nearby slab wall hurts.

"Master...?

Looking at Nil's face, he called worriedly, his anger slowly went down.

"... I'm sorry. It became too emotional.

Soon, the bodies of the two people killed also disappeared, and my chances were wasted and I was frustrated.

"Those four don't seem to be one of the pirates..."

"It sounds like we're dealing with a guy named Captain Pakles… We should ask him a lot when we get back to consciousness.

"Yes."

When Nil nodded and looked me in the eye again, I remember trying to talk to him before the operation.

"... Nil. Would you mind listening to me before we get there? I want to talk to Nil before this operation starts.

"Yes."

Walk with Nil to the bow of a sailboat heading toward the city and lower your hips.

………

…………

After a little silence, I cut out the story.
