Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world - Chapter 110

“… All the crew and bodyguards go to the deck! Get ready for the fight! Sky Pirates have been detected! All passengers, please take shelter in your cabins!”

The warning sounded and spontaneously I stood up. I took my Magic Bag and put on my equipment. After that, I move my feet, I started searching for Kimi and the others.

The corridor was filled with panicked people but they didn’t block my way. They were busy looking their cabins and then entering it.

They want shelter.

Following the scent of people I knew and a few minutes later, I got to the deck.

Here, I could see Ruciel walking towards the group of armed people. On the other hand, Kimi, Chloe, and Alan ran up to me after they separated from Ruciel.

“Big sis!” Kimi called me.

I moved my hand to make a signal telling them to get closer. Then, after they were in front of me, I said, “take shelter in the cabin. Lock the door and don’t come out until I come to pick you up or there’s another warning that told you everything was safe.”

“What about big sis?”

“I’ll stay here a little longer. I have to pick up Ruciel.”

“Can we also join the fight against the Sky Pirates?” asked Kimi who put on a brave expression.

And of course, the answer to that question is, “No! You guys aren’t strong enough. Now, go back to your cabin.”

Kimi puffed up her cheeks then said, “Alright.” Reluctantly, she walked away.

Kimi disappeared by walking down the stairs with several other people. A moment later, a sturdy wooden board sealed the stairs.

No one can get in or get out easily.

I walked, I approached Ruciel.

In the middle of my jog, I moved my head to see the surroundings and the vast sky.

The Airship Crews ran around to prepare the Aether Cannons and the defense mechanism in this Airship. They need to be ready for the sky pirates’ attacks.

As for the Mercenaries and Adventurers, they gathered in front of a man who might be the captain of this Airship.

The middle-aged man looked charismatic and strong. He’s tall and looked robust despite his age. The man used a rapier as a weapon.

Meanwhile, in the sky and the distance, there is an Airship that had a black Zeplin approaching and attacking our Airship. Their Aether Cannon fire that hit the Barrier of our Airship caused a strong shock on the deck and the entire of this vehicle.

Thanks to the shock, for several times, I almost fell because I lost my balance. Luckily, I never fell.

I continued to walk and I see Ruciel turn her face away as I arrived at her side. We grew silent for some time until I said, “Let’s go back to the cabin, Ruciel.”

Silence keep enveloping us after I said that.

The only voice that was heard around us was the voice of this Airship captain who asked help from us – adventurers who were passengers – to join the fight against the Sky Pirates that came to us.

The captain is unsure if the Crew under his orders and the Adventurer he hired can defeat the Sky Pirates who rides a medium-sized Airship.

Their numbers more than us, he said.

“… Going back and taking shelter in the cabin won’t change anything. Fight, Eclaite, for our safety. You can use your strange abilities to look for some achievements. You’re a Knight and you’ll probably become a truly noblewoman if you have more achievements.”

I look at the girl but the girl looked the other way. I felt that the words she spoke had no deep meaning or a sense. They sound like jokes.

But then, I thought that some parts of Ruciel’s words might have a point.

If the Airship captain feels unsure of a win, the help of one or two passengers might bring about change!

Maybe…

“Okay. But you also have to fight,” I said to the girl.

A moment later I gave her the Green Crystal Longbow and Quiver that I took from inside my Magic Bag.

Ruciel received the weapon without saying anything and then she began to prepare herself.

As for me, I took the Silver Spear and the Silver Longsword. With these two weapons, I’m ready to fight.

We listened to the captain. He gave us a bit of motivation speech and then promised us tasty rewards before finally giving us the task.

“Your job is to kill any Sky Pirates who boarded this Airship. Don’t let them take over this ship. Don’t show mercy. We’re up against the Sky Pirate Skull Cross. They always killed everyone except the women in the Airship they attacked. They don’t need mercy,” explained the captain.

Then, we went to each other’s positions after he has done.

Dozens of Aether Cannons were fired. Our Airship and the Sky Pirates’ Airships started exchanging shoots of the red-colored energy bullets.

Bang! Boom! Bang! Boom!

“Shoot! Shoot! Sink the Airship of that bastards! Target the zeplin and their Magi-engine!” commanded the captain in a loud voice.

And all of the Crew who handled the Aether Cannons responded by speeding up their respective tasks.

Bang! Boom!

Dozens of energy bullets were fired, again. And of course, thanks to those bullets of energies, huge fireworks, the sound of explosions, and smoldering flames were created.

And yes, shock after strong shock appears to torment our Airship. Not long after, one part in the back of our Airship got a direct shot.

DUAR!

An Aether Cannon bullet fired by the Sky Pirates made it through our Airship’s Barrier. It creates a huge explosion. A huge fire is raging violently and the Airship Crew…

“Water Magic-user extinguish that fire! Quickly!”

They tried hard to put out the fire. I wanted to help them but unfortunately, all the Water Spells I had were Attack Spells.

I can only see from a distance while observing the movement in the Airship of the Sky Pirates.

And yes, thanks to that explosion, our Airship speed was decreased. The Sky Pirates took advantage of this tragedy to get close to us.

“Don’t let them get close! Cannoneer! Targeted for their engine! Gurtmon! Take this ship away from them!”

Okay, that’s weird… The Helmsman was in the control room. So, how will that Helmsman hear the captain’s orders?

The answer to that question never appeared. But strangely enough, this Airship turns to get away, trying to leave the Airship of the Sky Pirates.

Boom! Boom!

Yes, the Aether Cannons continue to be used. They fired bullet after bullet of energy to bring down the approaching Airship.

Unfortunately, our Aether Cannons shots weren’t effective. They only made fireworks on the surface of the Barrier of the Airship owned by the Sky Pirates without ever being able to penetrate it.

A few minutes later, the Airship of the Sky Pirates readied at besides our Airship. Hook after hook was shot by the Sky Pirates who were so eager to tie our Airship with their Airship.

I and the other fighters made hard work to cut the rope in the hooks that numbered dozen but we were overwhelmed.

There are too many hooks!

On the other hand, Ruciel and the other long-range attackers started killing the Sky Pirates who were swinging into our Airship using ropes.

And yes, the Sky Pirates give us counterattacks. Because of that, I also have to dodge some spells and arrows that came to me.

Of course, I didn’t stay dodging. Many times, I fired my Water and Wind Spells to attack the Sky Pirates.

But unfortunately, my Spells weren’t effective as they were blown away by the strong winds blowing around the Airships before they hit their target.

Then, in the end, the Sky Pirates boarded our Airship. They came like apples falling from their trees.

And yes, the fight begins.

The sound of dozens of clashing weapons arose. So did the sound of dozens of Spells, the battle cry, and the screams of pain.

Then, a man, a Sky Pirate who was different and looked stronger than the other Sky Pirates showed himself.

That man had a large body wrapped by thick muscles. His armor was so notable because it was decorated with skull carvings and excluded a cold aura. He had a Great Sword as his weapon.

The man made a big, crazy smile and shouted, “Kill everyone, don’t leave anyone but the women!”

“OOO!!” Shouted the Sky Pirates under his commands.

The Sky Pirates who boarded our Airship are becoming more and more numerous. This chaos became even worse when the strong Sky Pirate who is a great sword user started swinging his weapon.

“He’s Cooper Head!” Shouted our Airship captain. “Kill that man! He must die!”

“UWOO!” Shouted the people on our side.

They launched their attacks on the Sky Pirates with new vigor.

And yes, the Sky Pirates also attacked me. Now, I’m dealing with three men who put on vulgar smiles on their faces. I realized, their eyes were always stealing glances at my chest and hips.

“Look at this! The attack just begins and we’ve already found a treasure!”

“Damn it! She’s so beautiful!”

“I can’t wait to taste her.”

These men… They make me furious!

I know extremely well, these men are so similar to the men who came to the Brothel where I used to live. They are the lowest living creatures in this world.

“Be careful, don’t hurt this girl too much. We won’t be able to get a good pleasure if she-argg!”

The man will never be able to finish his speech because my Siver Spear already pierced his neck.

That’s right, I didn’t want to kill humans. If I could, I wouldn’t kill anyone. However, for a man like this, for a creature who only acts because of its lower sword and was evil, I will kill them indiscriminately.

For them, Let there be carnage.
