Chapter 54: 54

After that, We enjoyed our first outing in a while to the extent that it would not look unnatural, buying necessary things and eating a little bit, and spent the last day on the Scarlett to avoid getting into trouble and missing the ship in case we got into trouble.

 

As time went by, the ship left the land safely and sailed out to the open sea. I finally relaxed a little when I could no longer see the town and the sea filled my field of vision.

 

“Phew, that’s a relief for now.”

 

I had been bracing myself in case they prioritized taking revenge on us rather than making a fuss about how dumb they were, but so far, there was not the case. There was no increase or decrease in the number of sailors this time, so there was no chance of weirdos mixing in.

 

(…, but it’s the same on Rebecca’s side. It’s possible she didn’t recruit any newbies to avoid the guys chasing after us from mixing in.)

 

Only we, the people in question, knew that such a thing did not exist. Rebecca was naturally cautious and has probably been looking into our past over the past five days. As for that, I had paid an informant to spread the rumors about it. It was spread to the extent that even I was able to hear it,and I think we’d be able to fool them continuously, if they had only lightly investigated. … Well, I’d figure it out when the time comes if this didn’t work out. While it was important to be prepared, I wouldn’t want to be dumb enough to get found out just because the rumours didn’t work.

 

“Ha~, I guess this means I have to say goodbye to land again for the time being.”

 

Next to me, Tia was enjoying the scenery. Soon we would have to start peeling vegetables again, but for now, it was a short break.

 

(So? How long do we have to keep peeling vegetables?)

 

Tia gently touched my hand and talked to me with [Missing Talk]. It was really convenient to be able to talk secretly even in public places.

 

(Yeah. I don’t think we have anything else for a month or so anyway. …) I replied,

 

(A month!? Uee. …)

 

Tia turned to me and gave me a fed up look. She was originally a beautiful elf, so even if she made a face like that, it would still be pretty, but it was not the kind of face that a girl of her age should make.

 

(Don’t make that face. You’re ruining your beauty.)

 

(Hmph. I’m not going to be cheered up by such flattery! But the way you put it,something is going to happen in a month, right? What’s going to happen? Are we going to save some ships from being attacked again?)

 

(Uh, I’d say you’re half right.)

 

(Half right?)

 

(Hahaha. If I tell you everything, it will ruin the fun. I’ll tell you when the time comes, but until then, you can keep on peeling vegetables in the hope that I’ll tell you.)

 

(What’s with that attitude!? And that goes for Ed, too, right?)

 

(No, I have a hunch that they’re going to give me another job, I think? It will be easier to get information that way.)

 

“Ehh? …”

 

Tia’s hand, showing her surprise, broke away from me. But soon she grabbed my hand again, and then she turned her head down and told me about her feelings.

 

(I see. We can’t be together forever. …)

 

(I’m not so sure. We’re on the same ship, so it’s just different jobs. I won’t be forced to do anything dangerous, and even if something goes wrong, you can handle most things on your own, can’t you?)

 

The crew on this ship weren’t weak by any means, but Tia was clearly stronger than them. If it were a competition of brute strength, she might lose, but there was no one on this boat who would be able to push Tia to that level.

 

Even so, Tia’s expression was sullen. She looked straight at me with sad eyes and pleaded earnestly.

 

(But, but … how the hell am I going to pass the time if Ed isn’t around!?)

 

(That’s what you’re talking about. … Well, good luck.)

 

(EDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!)

 

This time, I quickly pulled my hand away from her, waved my hand and turned my back to Tia and started walking away. By the way, Tia quickly got along with the peeler who took my place, and I couldn’t help but have a complicated expression on my face. …And so it went on for a month. The day finally came.

 

“I see a ship ahead!”

 

Just as before, a loud voice echoed through the ship. Everyone rushed to the deck, and I took slow, calm steps.

 

When I went up the stairs to the deck, the sky was cloudy and raining, and raindrops were pattering against my body as the wind howled.

 

In the midst of all this, the voice of Rebecca, the captain, of course, echoed on deck.

“Give me the status report!” Rebecca commanded,

 

“One ship at 500 northeast! The flag is … it’s Baroque.” The sailor replied,

 

“Baroque? If it’s not attacking some ship, just avoid it and keep going. Change course! East――”

 

“Wait a minute Nee-San! The Baroque’s ship is heading straight for us!”

 

“So, Captain … Come again?” 

 

The report from the man on lookout made Rebecca suspicious.

 

“Don’t tell me he has come to fight with us in the bad weather? I don’t think even Pierre is that stupid. … Do you see anything behind the ship?” Rebecca asked,

 

“Wait a minute. I can’t see very well. … Wave splashes? What, you’re kidding!!??” Sailor exclaimed,

 

“What do you see!?” She asked,

 

“A large magic beast! Supposedly …… A Kraken!”

 

“Kraken!?”

 

Rebecca was flabbergasted by the report. But that was not surprising. Kraken…A gigantic magic beast with a soft body and that was able to manipulate its eight tentacles at will was a powerful enemy that could easily sink even a military ship with a metal hull, and to encounter it at sea was synonymous with death.

 

“Rapid turn around! We’ll get the hell out of here while Pierre and the others are being attacked!”

 

Therefore, Rebecca made a ruthless and calm decision. In the first place, they had no obligation to help each other since they were fighting to kill each other, and pirate ships, which were designed to plunder, did not carry large weapons like military warships did.

 

Then that decision couldn’t be more correct. … Then I called out to them.

 

“Captain, a moment?”

 

“Yeah? What’s up, new guy? You’re not going to tell me you want to help Pierre, are you?” She asked,

 

“No, I mean …. I’m going to take down that Kraken, how about that?”

 

“…Wha?”

 

Rebecca looked at me with her big mouth open at my proposal. Well, that was the kind of reaction I would have if someone told me that they were going to defeat a magic beast that was bigger than a ship.

 

“Are you stupid? You’re going to defeat it!? How!!?” She asked, dumbfounded

 

“Of course, I’ve thought about that.”

 

With that said, I proceeded to briefly explain my strategy to Rebecca. Then Rebecca held her face in her hands with a dumbfounded expression on her face, looked up at the rain-drenched sky and sighed heavily.

 

“Ha~, I see… … If you’re going to drag me and my ship into this, I’m just going to toss you into the ocean, if not, you can do whatever you want. However, if it looks dangerous, we will escape immediately. Is that alright with you?”

 

“Yeah. All we’re worried about is the ride home.”

 

“All right, then. Then we’ll get a small boat――”

""

 

“Oh, no, I don’t want that either. Tia!”

 

“Fufufu~, finally it’s my turn!”

 

I called her name, and Tia raised her shiny silver sword as if she had been waiting for me. There was already spirit magic imbued in it, and a pale blue-white light was faintly surrounding the blade.

 

“YAAAAAHHHHH!!!”

 

When Tia swung her sword downwards, a frozen path was formed on the sea. It reached the Baroque’s ship, which was getting very close, and the ship, suddenly slowed down, staggered under the blow from the Kraken’s tentacles.

 

“It’s going to sink if we don’t hurry. Let’s go, Tia!”

 

“As you wish!”

 

Hugging Tia’s body, I jumped down to the sea and stepped onto the icy path and used my banishment skill [Hermes Dash] and the rest was a straight line to the enemy.
