Pick Me Up!

Chapter 150: Past Present and Future (2) (2)

How many hours had I slept?

Thud!

I opened my eyes.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the hammock shook violently.

?

I looked out the window.

The sky had darkened. It seemed like night had fallen.

But whats this vibration?

The entire ship was shaking at regular intervals.

It didnt seem to be an aftereffect of the dimensional leap. I dressed in armor and armed myself before heading outside. As I emerged onto the deck, the situation became clear.

ugh!

Lydel was gritting her teeth, waving her hands.

Bright strands of magic power were bursting from her entire body. She was using magic.

Whats happening?

Well, thats

Ah, I see.

I looked to the side of the railing.

A giant purple hull caught my eye. The metallic surface was decorated with dragons and swords, intertwining and wriggling with the logo of the Union Guild engraved on it.

That was quick.

Bang!

The heat from the cannon hit Landgrid07s protective barrier.

A blind attack.

Since Niflheimrs mark was visible, it would be easy to distinguish.

It seemed like we were intercepted on our way from Townia to Niflheimr.

Landgrid07 quickly advanced, widening the distance, but the pursuing flying ship followed.

A mans gruff voice echoed.

Lydel looked distressed.

Im sorry. I didnt expect this!

What should we do? This isnt a combat ship, and we dont have weapons

I looked around the deck.

It seemed there were no crew members except for Lydel.

Moreover, a sorceress is a purely auxiliary class. She practically had no combat power.

Im sorry, Im so sorry!

Why are you apologizing so much?

But, to put you in danger

While Lydel apologized, the flying ships cannons fired.

A decisive blow. With the sound of breaking glass, Landgrid07 staggered, and the protective barrier shattered.

Ill buy us some time!

Lydel, with a determined expression, held her staff.

At the same time.

Flash.

Several figures appeared on the deck.

It was an infiltration by teleportation magic.

This is bad.

Trouble from the very beginning.

A man with a grim face licked his blade.

Then, a man with a frivolous look drew his dagger.

Only two of them. Lucky.

Hehe, Ill make you regret being born.

I assessed them one by one.

There were eight in total. They didnt seem very strong.

Though they would likely be much higher level than me.

Can you use fortification magic?

Yes? Thats possible

Good.

I reached for my sword sheath.

Oy, Oy. Do we look this weak? Youre only level 34 and you want to fight us?

Hehe, you dont know your place! Im level 50! Ill slice your limbs into pieces

Theres a magician over there.

They caught onto my status.

Still, it was kind of them to reveal their own level.

Ill decorate my room with your skull

Ascend.

[Han() enters Ascend state!]

Crack!

The head of the man who was babbling vanished.

Before the recoil of the skill hit, I shouted.

Lydel, use fortification magic!

Understood!

Strands of magic power wrapped around my entire body.

The imbalance in my body settled down.

I should be able to hold out for 30 seconds.

Feeling explosive power, I swung my sword at the next target.

Then.

You little bastard!

Bang!

The blades collided.

However, it only pushed him back without killing him.

The man momentarily looked shocked, then his eyes filled with killing intent.

You, a mere lowbie you are dangerous!

Hes about level 70.

As expected, it was no good.

Even if I managed to deal with a level 50 due to a moment of carelessness, the basic spec difference was too vast.

I bitterly smiled and deactivated Ascend.

Lydel panicked.

What should we do?

Im not sure.

Maybe I should buy us some time

I shook my head.

The enemies started to approach.

Ill send both of your heads to Niflheimr!

Whatever.

Ill kill you first!

The man stomped his foot.

His figure blurred, and the distance of a few meters closed instantly.

Indeed, he was high-level.

To die

Suddenly, lightning struck out of the blue.

The lightning struck the man charging at me, and at the spot, a golden flash erupted.

The enemies expressions froze in an instant.

Rumble!

A second lightning bolt struck.

Lightning took on the shape of a person.

A black uniform covering the entire body. Long, platinum hair from which electricity sparked.

A youthful face with a mischievous smile was directed at the enemy.

Who, who are you?!

At the speed of light.

The girl smiled broadly.

Ever been hit at the speed of light?

What?

Ultra-fast Ziri Punch!

Crack!

Lightning flashed, and seven bodies disappeared.
