The merchant s.h.i.+p that Flan and I boarded advanced through open water. And beyond that, we could see an isolated rocky island.

Several s.h.i.+pped with skull mark drawn on its sail and equipped with magnificent cannon were anch.o.r.ed on the port.

The island was surrounded by a thick gloomy aura and several vengeful spirits could be seed floating around it. In short, it was really nice island.

However, Nene's pale face getting paler while steering the helm.

"Ne, Nene-sama… It would be good if I'm mistaken, but isn't that the base of Galsha pirate who terrorized these areas..?"

"You're right!"

"Let's turn back! We finally got merchant s.h.i.+p on our hands, it will immediately sink if we go there!"

"It's fine, it's fine."

"What is fine!?"

"It's fine even if the s.h.i.+p is sinking."

"That's not fine!!"

Flan panicked. Even for mercenary who annihilate monsters here and there was getting scared just by hearing the name of intimidating Galsha pirate.

Well, If it Galsha pirate, their dreads were as famous as Kraken or Nautilus, they were so dangerous that no country's navy could do anything to them.

I stood on my tip toe, stretching my back and hitting Flan's head.

"Calm down Flan! First, Galsha pirate won't attack this s.h.i.+p."

"Why?"

"The town where we got thi s.h.i.+p, at the surface it was just an ordinary town, but the truth is the town actually co-exist with the pirate. Look, even if they are pirates, they still live with their family, so they need food supply and clothes is stable manner right? If they attack any town they found, they can't buy anything right? So they make an agreement to not attack certain town."

"And that town is the town before?"

"Yep! It was troublesome if the military found so they do it in secret. That's why I ask the s.h.i.+p with that town mark on it!"

"Amazing! Nene-sama knows everything! Please forgive this foolish me! I never know Nene-sama thought that deep."

"Hu hu, Amazing right!?"

I puffed up my chest.  Well, I knew that from the first playthrough when the brave receive quest to subjugate the pirate, but the admiring look from Flan wasn't bad.

"That's why, from the pirate point of view, this s.h.i.+p is like 'They bring the supply again' or something like that and we will use that gap to infiltrate their base."

"What we would do by infiltrating their base? Subjugating them? This useless Flan will doing her best to become Nene-sama's sword!"

Flan said in high spirits.

"Nah, we won't subjugate them. I'm thinking about borrowing their pirate s.h.i.+p."

"Pirate s.h.i.+p…?"

Flan's eyes rounded in surprise.
