The pirates were fleeing.
So of the pirate knights tried to resist, but they were eventually surrounded by soldiers and were defeated.
They had no choice but to give up once they were ganged up on.
The adjutant was frantically running around the ship.
Goaz, that bastard. Hes trying to escape alone!
After the enemys landing squad had breached the ship, he had suddenly disappeared.
Desperately running away, the adjutant was trying his best to think of a way out of this situation.
He pulled up the ships map with his personal terminal.
theres nowhere else for to run. Damn it all.
The adjutant turned around and sat down.
In front of him was an enemy unit led by a small knight carrying a sword.
He tried to flee, but no matter where he went thered only be enemies waiting for him.
The adjutant raised his arms in surrender.
Please wait! I have information youd be interested in!
The small knight carrying a sword over his shoulder stopped, giving the order for the n behind him stand down.
The knight sounded fairly young judging by his voice.
(This is my last chance, I need to use every card Ive got here to survive.)
Im just another victim of Goazs tyranny, please have rcy on !
The knight was wearing a helt so his expressions couldnt be read.
Thats right! I also know where all the treasure is kept! I dont have the access key, but I can show you where it is! You can trust !
The adjutant imdiately genuflected before them.
The knight was silent.
However, the knights subordinate opened his terminal and gave a report.
Lord Liam, this man is the deputy officer of Goazs pirate fleet. I dont think hes a victim who was forced into the life of piracy.
At the ntion of the na Liam, the adjutant raised his face.
Liam? Youre the bast- I an, of course you are! No wonder you had such a majestic aura about you! Say, why dont you hire ? If we join our forces together then-
The adjutants vision suddenly changed.
He didnt move his body at all, but his vision still changed all the sa.
In the sudden weightlessness of zero-gravity, he could see every individuals body.
Even his own.
huh?
The adjutants consciousness broke off from there.
The guide was stunned as he watched over the battlefield.
He was currently standing on a destroyed pirate ship.
This is impossible. W-what the hell is with that strength?!
The guide was perplexed over the power that Liam originally shouldve never obtained.
The school of the One-Flash didnt exist in this universe.
In the first place, it was just a lie created by Yasushi.
Yet sohow, Liam was able to reproduce it in reality.
Even if you were talented, how did you obtain such power? Just what did that man teach you?
While he wasnt looking, Liam had beco far stronger than he couldve imagined.
Theres no way hed know Liam would be this powerful.
The guide gripped his head with both his hands.
It hurts! Im in pain here, dammit!
Liams grateful feelings were being transmitted to him even now.
There was an absolute feeling of trust mixed in as well it was nauseating.
I cant allow things to keep going like this. Goaz, I will give you power.
The guide waved his arms, generating black smoke around him.
Doing this goes against my style, but it cant be helped. This is the end for you, Liam.
The guide felt like throwing up at the thought that he was forced to get his hands dirty.
Goaz was hiding in a remote corner of the ship while shaking.
He had the alchemy box firmly gripped in his hands.
I dont want to die. I dont want to die. I dont want to die.
The leader of a pirate fleet whos na spread fear across the cosmos was crying like a baby, terrified.
In the first place, his unlimited source of funds was Goazs only weapon.
As a pirate he was only a little stronger than the norm, if he was found, there was no doubt that hed be killed.
This cant be real. Im going to survive this, no, Im going to live a life of luxury. Yeah, thats right, as long as I have this-
The Alchemy Box- if he were a bit smarter about how he used it, Goaz couldve lived an easy life.
He didnt have to be a pirate.
This was a situation caused completely by the choices that hes made.
He brought about these circumstances himself.
With that said, nobody wouldve expected for him to actually lose against Liam.
At that mont, black smoke started enveloping Goaz.
W-what the hell?!
The voice of the guide called out to him,
Goaz, Im going to give a bastard like you a chance.
Whos talking?! Who the hell is talking?!
The black smoke forced its way into Goazs mouth as he was frozen in fear.
As the guide materialized, Goaz was already collapsed on the ground, gripping his throat with both his hands in pain.
The guide spoke,
This is your last chance, I will give you the opportunity to defeat Liam. You want to win here, dont you?
As Goaz forced himself to nod his head, the guide proceeded to laugh with his crescent moon smile.
Thatll do.
The black smoke dissipated, and Goaz dropped the alchemy box in surprise as he was suddenly released from the pain.
Whats going on? I can feel power surging through , and I dont feel scared! I dont feel any fear at all!
His skin now had a bluish tone to it, but he didnt feel any discomfort with his body at all.
In fact, he felt great.
Goaz smiled.
The guide was also smiling.
Your skin is now as tough as adamantium, so you have nothing to fear. You have transcended the limits of humanity, so go on and rampage!
This is all because of that brat! Im going to kill him!
The guide watched Goaz run off while holding a hand to his forehead.
that was a bit excessive. I guess I had a little too much fun.
Considering how often he had used the dinsional door recently, this was a pretty stupid move.
The guides figure was severely fatigued.
Well at the very least, this guarantees that Goazll kill him. Oh Liam, regret the fact that youve bored and must now fall into despair.
As the guide disappeared, a small light approached the alchemy box.
The light observing the guides actions was the sa one that had entered Avid.
Morphing into the shape of a black and brown dog, it rushed into the hallway towards Liams location.
As I was walking through the corridor, I suddenly felt a wave of nostalgia wash over .
huh?
It almost looked like the tail of a brown dog crossed my view for a second there.
My n mustve noticed my abnormality,
Lord Liam, is there sothing wrong?
Just now, did you see a dog?
A dog? No, the scanners dont detect any biological reactions, and even then there wouldnt be such a thing here. A dog could never wear a spacesuit.
Was I just seeing things?
Even so, why did I feel so nostalgic just from seeing a tail?
thats it.
It reminded of the dog I kept in my previous life.
At the sa ti, I also rembered the various animals that all died when I tried to take care of them afterwards.
If I didnt know about my previous life, then I wouldve just ignored it as supernatural nonsense.
But I knew about the guide, and all that hes done for .
I thought his work was already done
My Lord?
No, its nothing. In anycase, lets go in that direction.
As we proceeded towards the path that I saw the tail pass by, we arrived at an area in total disarray.
All the furniture was scattered about like an old warehouse.
There were many places to hide, so my subordinates advanced carefully even though I couldnt sense anyone.
Even the dog didnt seem to be here.
I felt a little disappointed.
When I sighed and looked down, I spotted sothing lying on the floor.
Whats this?
What I picked up was a golden box.
It was small enough to be held in one hand.
It was decorated in various intricate ways- I took quite a liking to it.
I picked up sothing good here, and now its mine.
The n looked in my direction with warm gazes,
I guess the rumors about Lord Liams love for gold are true.
I adore it.
What about mithril and adamantium?
Hmm? I like them, but gold is better.
I feel like my subordinates are a confused, but isnt mithril just a fancy na for silver?
And adamantium has more of an image as sothing used as weapon materials.
Gold should be more valuable.
As I inspected the box, I saw the dogs tail at the edge of my view.
-there it is again.
Lord Liam, please dont go off on your own!
As I left my n to chase after the dog, I reached a dead end.
But sothing felt off about it.
After using my helts scanner, I found out that there was actually a hidden door there.
I sll treasure.
After having my subordinates blow up and destroy the hidden door, I found what could be akin to a treasure mountain.
However, it wasnt the gold and silver riches I wanted, it was just antiques.
I guess this is a failure.
My n exclaid in surprise,
No, isnt this still a jackpot?! These items are definitely worth a fortune!
The majority of these are probably just fakes.
In fact, many of the antiques owned by the Banfield house were fakes.
For the ti being, I scoured the pile to see if there was anything worth value.
Hey, I found a sword.
It was an old-fashioned sword that looked like it belonged to a fantasy ga.
Thats the feeling the design on the sheath and handle gave off.
Simple, and modest.
As I inspected it, I found the blade to be in perfect condition.
I want to test this on sothing.
Wouldnt it be better to not use it? It looks like its worth a lot.
Ill only use it if necessary. Dont worry, it was sothing taken from pirates anyway.
I put the gold box in the large pouch at the back of my belt, and gave my rifle to my n as I equipped the two swords.
If I make wise choices from here on, I might not even need to fight anymore.
Now then, where should we go nex-
Lord Liam, we have an ergency call coming in!
My subordinate shouted.
One of the landing squads had run into Goaz.
Even though they were wearing powered suits, they were easily thrown back by just one of Goazs arms.
Damn, why arent bullets working?!
Energy-based weapons arent either!
Ill do it!
One of the soldiers fired a bazooka at Goaz, but he walked out of the explosion and smoke as if nothing happened.
The faces of the soldiers were going pale.
Goaz put on of his hands on his neck and cracked it.
To go wild on a mans ship, you couldnt have thought youd be able to get out of here unscathed.
Goaz was intoxicated with the power he gained and felt like he could do anything.
Not even knights could be his opponent now.
When he clenched his fist, it didnt sound like a persons hand- there was a tal squeaking noise to it.
You are all my toys.
Goaz blows off the soldiers with ease using the guides power.
Ammunition, lasers, and explosives were all useless against him.
The soldiers even tried to alter the air pressure in the corridor- but even that had no effect on Goaz.
I guess you could say Ive done so remodeling recently.
Hes a cyborg?
When the soldiers tried to retreat, Goaz chased them down and sent them flying.
Grabbing and throwing them like nothing, Goaz rampaged with his newfound strength.
Bring the kid! Lets end this here and now!
One of the soldiers loudly sent out commands to his surroundings.
Send out a ssage to get Lord Liam off the ship! We absolutely can not let those two et!
Knowing that none of the soldiers attacks were effective, Goaz continued to run wild.
What happened to your bravery just a second ago?! Co at !
Whenever he punched a soldier, hed completely smash the head in along with the helt.
Grabbing another soldier to use as a shield, the shooting stopped.
This ti its my turn to-
As he threw away the soldier he was using a shield and took a step forward, Goaz suddenly felt pain shoot through his body.
what?
When Goaz looked down at his figure, he was surprised to see a number of wounds there.
Without knowing what had just occurred, one human jumped down from above him.
The person who jumped down was looking at a chipped sword covered in blood as he stood.
How tough.
The man seed to be laughing.
He was wearing a helt though, so Goaz couldnt see his face.
Goaz stretched out his right arm to grab him, when he suddenly heard sothing fall to the ground with a bump.
His right arm was severed from the tip of his elbow.
huh?
To his surprise, the small man in front of him had thrown away his blade.
In its place was a sword that Goaz recalled seeing before.
It was sothing that he stored in the room full of antiques.
It was a very valuable sword.
Hey, you! Thats mine!
The man was laughing.
What, this? Its mine now. Besides, it looks like you were able to rampage just fine without it.
As the laughing man rested the sword on his shoulder, Goaz stretched out his left arm to grab him.
But this ti it was his left arm that fell off.
-?!
Goaz couldnt understand what was happening.
On the contrary, the man in front of him was looking over the sword in interest.
He seed to be quite pleased with it.
Amazing, not a single drop of blood stained it. How interesting.
Goaz had now lost both of his hands.
While he was still in a state of confusion, black smoke started coming out of the cut surfaces, morphing into tentacle-like organisms.
What the hell is this?!
Goaz couldnt control his body, and attacked the man in front of him.
But the man was ignoring Goaz completely.
I like this sword, Ill make sure to use this one from now on. Im lucky I found that treasure trove.
The tentacles were sliced into fine pieces, along with one of Goazs feet as well.
Black smoke was constantly being emitted from Goaz, who was now kneeling.
Ah ahhhhh
Goaz was trembling now, he couldnt understand what was going on.
Black blood was flowing from all the cut surfaces.
The soldiers had gathered into a formation to protect the knight.
Lord Liam!
When he heard that na, Goaz raised his head.
His eyebrows wrinkled as he gazed upon the visage of the demon-like man in front of him.
So youre youre that bastard Liam!
The man was still fervently inspecting his new sword and didnt even spare to look at Goaz.
Yeah, Im Liam. Also, thats Lord Liam to you, trash. More importantly, whos this black person anyways? Is he a remodeled human or sothing?
The soldiers answered his question, but seed a bit doubtful.
His skin colour is different from the reports, but I think thats Goaz.
This person is?
Goazs left arm had taken the shape of a sharp horn.
Dont ignore !
As he thrust out his left arm to pierce Liams heart- his left shoulder was cut off.
Liam looked down at Goaz, who was on his knees.
He rested his sword against his shoulder and sternly inspected Goazs face.
Are you really Goaz?
Goaz started to tremble.
(What the hell?! How?! This is impossible! How did my body get cut even when bullets bounced off?! Sothings wrong here. Sothing is definitely wrong here!)
The panicking Goaz looked up towards Liam.
p-please, have rcy.
Huh?
Spare . Please, spare . Ill never go against you again. If you let live, Ill even give you all my treasure.
Liam smiled and started laughing at Goazs offer.
He laughed and said,
I dont want to.
