Is this really just an RPG? !

Alexander Empire・Can only hit twice・Never intends to change the way of fighting・Princess who doesn’t know what she’s thinking.

Although she is good at fighting, she can only hit a few times. Even if she changes her fighting style, it is useless. I don't know if she is a helpful senior.

A brave man who can play a lot, but can't play at all, is addicted to watching movies except for watching movies, and has no value from beginning to end.

Whether such a team is an adventure team or a sightseeing tour group, I can no longer tell. All I know is that if there is no way to deal with the sea monster in front of me, then the ship is likely to sink and be torn to pieces by the sea monster's tentacles on the bottom of the sea. The reality that people have to face is that no matter whether it is myself, Lilith, or Emily, the three of them have no good way to deal with sea monsters.

"The name of this sea monster is Rost."

Emily suddenly brought up the topic.

I really wanted to deny her words, and once again emphasized the importance of "don't name anyone casually, even if it's just a guy who won't live a day anyway", but was interrupted by Lilith first.

"Well, probably."

"Your Highness, you are simply agreeing!"

"Eh, probably."

"..."

This man is beyond help.

Even in this situation, there is still leisure to joke.

I really can't give a "good mentality" evaluation.

The sea monster, which was forced back by Lilith and Emily's attack, still kept a distance from the ship where it could attack at will. It seemed to be waiting for something. This sea monster named Beth was transformed from a fallen sea monster, that is to say, it has rich reasons to attack human ships both before and now.

After all, neither of them are existences that can get along well with humans.

Not only does it know ice magic, but its soft body, skin with high magic resistance and super regeneration ability make this sea monster very difficult to deal with. Grace's shells can't effectively kill it. The only thing it repelled was Lilith's strange attack method that "looks very high-end and atmospheric, but it's actually an ordinary energy bombardment" that Lilith didn't know where to learn.

This description is really long.

If Qiuqiu heard about it, he would probably make an evaluation like "He is really a boring brave man".

"Master, you are really bored."

"..."

Look, this elf who would complain about his master appeared.

"Actually, it's very simple to deal with sea monsters! After all, even sea monsters have brains. As long as we attack the brain, whether it's a heavy hit or a penetration, we can successfully leave the sea monster's attack range."

Me: "Huh?"

Emily: "Brain?"

Lilith: "Trembling?"

"Wait! Why are you talking about trembling!"

I can't understand Lilith's way of thinking.

But under my questioning, I only got one answer that sounded natural.

"Don't you think the word 'brain flutter' sounds coherent?"

"..."

What she said was so reasonable that I was speechless.

It seems to come from a setting in a parallel world.

"Anyway, if you really want to complete this achievement, let that sea monster's brain tremble, maybe it can shake out a concussion, so that we can take advantage of it when it can't concentrate leave here."

"Oh! Just eat the brains!"

"It's not eating!"

"As long as the brain is eaten, the zombie can win!"

"I said it's not eating! Besides, why is it a zombie setting! Your Highness, did you think of something strange again!"

"Think a little of the three meals a day that Larry and I mentioned."

"... Larry?"

I seem to hear a very familiar name.

"Mr. Zombie in the Demon King's Palace, Neil has met him, right?"

"Ah... yes..."

Suddenly remembered.

Because he was the first guy to see me turned into a young woman, so after the incident was over, he subconsciously killed it from his memory. He never expected to bring it up at this time, and it was reincarnated in my memory resurrection.

…………

Sure enough, I should find a chance to give that guy enough holy water, so that he can send his body and soul to hell together, so that no one will know my ulterior secret anymore.

"It always feels like the brave man is thinking something terrible."

"I'm just thinking about what kind of gift to give to a 'friend' whom I haven't seen for a long time who once fought together."

"Gift?"

"A gift that will lift him up and move him."

"There seems to be a very subtle logical problem in your language, and I really don't understand what the word 'sublimation' means, but considering the current situation, I decided it would be better not to ask."

"That's it."

The conversation with Emily started suddenly and then ended abruptly.

I don't want to say too much, it would be too bad if this sensitive guy notices something.

What "So you are also forced to become a girl's companion", although the scene is very touching, but I will probably be so moved that I can't help but blow up something.

"In short, just attack the sea monster's brain."

"An attack with sufficient strength is enough. If it is not enough, use a slightly weaker attack several times."

Qiuqiu gave such a strategy plan.

I pulled out the short sword, and at the same time tore open the magic scroll of [Levitation], allowing myself to float.

"Tell me the location."

I asked Qiuqiu.

Then a red "x" mark appeared on the head of the sea monster in my eyes, and I knew it was made by Qiu Qiu without even thinking about it.

"Positioning complete."

"Then... armed liberation!"

The dagger in his hand unleashes Mana, which turns into a red spear at the same time. There are multiple magic circles under the feet and in front of the body, which is the precursor of the attack magic that comes with Gungnri: the magic circle under the feet is used to gather mana, and the magic circle in front of the body is used to lock the attack target.

Possessing the ability of "as long as you know enough information, no matter how you throw it, you will hit it", this is the biggest feature of the magic weapon Gungnri I hold.

So many magic circles in front of me are some way to express "the information I have learned".

But in the end, the target is right in front of me, and this blow will never miss anyway.

So I lifted Gungnri up straight after the magic was ready.

The moment I was about to project it, the magic circle was forced to close, and the half-running magic had to stop.

Then I heard voices from above.

"Warning! Low battery! Warning! Low battery!"

"..."

"Enter Standby! Enter Standby!"

"..."

The bright red spear turned back into a short sword.

Obviously it has a setting that can shoot three times after charging in one day. I obviously used it for the first time today, but somehow told me "the battery is low"? I looked at the dagger in my hand and didn't understand what was wrong with it. When I looked at Qiuqiu with doubts, I got the answer from her.

"Maybe it's not used to taking a boat."

"Eh?"

"Master, look, even the strongest among human beings, there will always be guys who are 'unable to exert their strength due to seasickness'."

"Eh!"

"So, it's understandable to use magic weapons to leak energy in a state of seasickness."

"Eh……"

"I've been talking about it all the time! In fact, this magic weapon has a weird temper."

"..."

There is absolutely no way to refute it.

I lowered my height to maintain my body next to Lilith and Emily, and looked at them both helplessly.

"It's probably like this. I really don't seem to be able to do anything."

Emily: "The incompetent brave."

Lilith: "Incompetent Neil...heh!"

"What does that 'na' mean! I'm really sorry for my incompetence! If you can, please hurry up and deal with that sea monster, otherwise... Ugh!"

The hull was trembling.

The Grace, which was slapped by the tentacles of the sea monster, barely maintained its balance and would not capsize immediately. Even so, I don't think the hull can withstand such an attack. If it continues like this, it will either be "overturned by a sea monster and cause the ship to sink", or "the bottom of the ship is broken and submerged and the ship sinks."

"Qiuqiu, just attack that big guy on the head!"

"That's right! As long as it's strong enough!"

"So……"

Emily took out the staff that was taller than her, stabilized her figure and spread out a magic circle under her body.

"The brave is responsible for catching me."

"Eh? Okay..."

"Then, I'll get it! Comet lunge!"

Use the reaction force generated by the burst of magic power to propel itself to achieve the purpose of ultra-high-speed flight, and use the remaining magic power after the burst to gather at the tip of the magic to strengthen the effect of magic energy. This is the attack magic that Emily is best at, Comet lunge, an extremely unreasonable magic attack that looks like a physical attack.

The moment the staff hit the sea monster's head, it produced an energy explosion, forcefully knocking the sea monster back into the water. Emily also bounced back towards the ship due to the storm of the explosion, and was caught by me who "has been informed in advance"... That's it, I don't really want to do this kind of work, if I can, I'd rather give it to Lilith.

It's just that the princess has her own things to do.

Emily's attack is very powerful, but it can't reach the level of completely repelling the sea monster.

At most, it can make the Grace temporarily safe.

The final blow still had to be handed over to Lilith who had "been obsessed with strange attack methods recently".

At this time, Lilith raised her right hand while unfolding the magic circle.

The surrounding sailors cheered when they saw the right hand that was shining because of gathering mana.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

"This right hand of mine is as hot as a red fire! He cries for me to seize victory!"

"..."

I really want to remind her that it's really not a good thing to have lines for nothing.

Because no matter how I hear this sentence, it sounds familiar.

Although I can't figure out why it sounds familiar.

"[No matter what you say, hit the opponent down first and then communicate with the punch]!"

Calling the name of the move with a lot of slots, Lilith swung her right fist, and then the golden beam cannon hit the head of the sea monster Beth. Did not surface. In other words, regardless of whether the opponent is still alive or not, the Grace is completely safe.

After experiencing many crises of pirates, ruins, and sea monsters, he finally got through these difficulties.

In a sense, it's great.

In a sense, being able to encounter three kinds of events at the same time is also very powerful.

"His Royal Highness! Long live!"

Cheers erupted from the deck.

I feel very tired.

"What's wrong?"

"I still want to complain about what happened to her naming method."

"Doesn't it sound handsome?"

"...Compared to being handsome, it is more 'intimidating'!"

Get down first and then communicate well.

That is to say, "Continue to call if the communication fails"?

"Anyway, it's not time to mention it."

"Too."

Rarely, I agree with Emily.

After greeting Lilith, he went to the captain's cabin with Emily and Qiuqiu.

After all, I am still very curious about the dog leader.

"Meow?"

"Roger!"

He hugged the black cat he had recently adopted with great joy, and stretched out his hand to rub its fluffy head.

It's natural to be curious.

A dog who became the leader of the pirates was also involved with things like Ruins.

But before that, I must stress, I am a cat.

In fact, I have been very surprised.

During the whole process, I only saw the crew members and did not see a panicked passenger. Later I realized that it was because Lilith deliberately went to the refuge to control the passengers in a certain sense, so that they could keep calm until the incident was over. After solving the sea monster and returning to the lobby, I saw the passengers except me, Emily, and Lilith.

The crew moved quickly and everything was packed.

As if nothing had happened.

If I hadn't seen Captain Brown teasing his deputy when I came to the captain's room, I guess I would really suspect that what I encountered before was just a dream.

but……

What is this man thinking...

"Hey, Heywood."

"Wow! No, that's not right! Big sister, stop your head! Although it's very comfortable, I was the captain of the ship. If this continues, I can only transform!"

"Oh? Transform, show me?"

"It will be very powerful! In the game, it will be the existence of the ultimate boss!"

Oh, then this game must have multiple hidden bosses that are more powerful than the ultimate boss; or there is additional content, and in the additional content there is a "pretend I am a boss but actually I am a boss" that is more powerful than the ultimate boss Weird guy.

No matter which kind of conjecture possibility is super high.

"Ultimate boss, then am I not the captain of the ultimate boss? Then Heywood, come and show me."

"!!!"

"What's the matter, you are so surprised, with an expression of 'why doesn't this person follow the script and I don't know how to answer'."

"!?!"

ah.

Inexplicably felt sympathy.

Fortunately, Brown did not agree to the proposal.

I expressed some sympathy for the ex-pirate chief before interrupting the interaction between the two. Although it’s okay to keep watching, the problem is that Miss Emily next to me doesn’t seem to have much self-control when it comes to canine creatures. In order to maintain her dignity as a senior, let’s shift the topic to more formal aspects.

"Captain Brown?"

"Neil! Thank you and Your Royal Highness this time... Well, who is this?"

Brown suddenly fell silent when he saw Emily.

After a short thought, she came to a conclusion.

"You guys already have a child!"

"Yes, yes... Do you think I am so sure? Look clearly! Her face and Lilith's face are completely two faces!"

"After all, sons follow their mothers, and daughters follow their fathers."

"So that's the way it is...it's strange! Please keep your eyes open, I don't look like her at all!"

"There will always be mutations, mixing traits shared by both parents, as long as the corners are similar."

"What you say is what you say... Please stop! Don't continue to make unnecessary fantasies! She is Lilith's younger sister, who is now the little princess!"

"Understood. No wonder you feel so similar to Lilith. Could it be that you were the father of two princesses before you became a brave man, Neil?"

"..."

I don't think any explanation can stop this guy's more and more random brain-filling behavior.

A little embarrassing.

Even knowing that she was just joking, I still feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Ahem, Captain Brown."

"Sorry, sorry, so her real identity?"

"The senior I met with Lilith in college, Emily Thomas."

"So... so small?"

"There's a reason for that."

I looked dissatisfied at the culprit who didn't say a word and left it to me to explain.

She just shook her eyebrows.

It seems to be expressing to me the meaning of "handle it yourself".

"In short, thank you very much for your help."

"No... nothing."

"Is there anything you can do with me?"

"To be precise, I'm looking for your new deputy."

"Wang?"

Yes, I'm looking for the guy who used to be the pirate leader.

"oh!"

Brown looked at Heywood strangely, then at me, and then slapped me on the shoulder.

"Let's play fair."

"There's something I want to ask... huh? What?"

"Eh? Didn't you come to steal someone from me?"

"Why should I snatch such a stupid dog!"

"Come on, Haywood, his stupidity is a lovely thing."

"That's just what you think! Besides, with the same setting, you don't need two in a team."

"I see."

"Most importantly, I prefer cats."

"Let's fight! Enemy!"

"Never flinch!"

I always feel that the topic is even more strange?

Why every time I talk to Brown, I can always be taken to a very magical place by her. Even if I deliberately restrain myself, I can't help but follow her topic, and when I recover, I find that a lot of time is wasted. . After calming down a bit, I handed Roger over to Emily, and sat down willfully.

"I want to ask him about the 'William Pirates'."

"Wang?"

"There are two William Pirates, and both of them are eyeing this ship, so I want to ask why you are eyeing the Grace."

I asked the dog, who was still out of the situation, quite bluntly.

There are two branches of the William Pirates, one of which is led by Heywood, who is only a little middle schooler in front of him; the other is a pirate organization composed of a group of ruins. For the latter, for the sake of safety, after they are caught and disassembled, they are all thrown into the sea in a hurry.

This is what led to the sea monster Bess, leading to what just happened.

The three incidents were almost unrelated, and the only breakthrough was the former pirate leader in front of him.

"Big sister?"

"Answer seriously, I really want to know this question."

Brown patted his deputy on the head.

"Well... Actually, someone told us about this ship and asked us to keep an eye on it. How should I say it? The 'William Pirates' is just a 'pseudo-pirate' to make the nobles feel exciting, so I don't know the specifics. Not sure, the plan was to 'pretend to take over the cruise ship' and then 'be defeated by someone who suddenly appeared' and then 'run away in despair' sort of thing."

"..."

I always feel that it was something thought up by a guy who wanted to deliberately hype himself.

Then, by chance, a strange captain and a strange passenger came across.

"Not just the first time?"

"Not just for the first time."

"Has Captain Brown known about such things before?"

"No, this is the first time I have encountered this pirate group."

"Then the information published in the newspaper...have you ever been caught in prison?"

"No bark."

Heywood looked confused.

"That is to say, what was mentioned in the newspaper is another group... that group of guys from Xu Hai?"

I am talking to myself.

A possibility suddenly appeared in my mind.

"Puppy dog, I want to ask you something."

Emily, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up.

"Why did you name your organization 'William Pirates'?"

"Because he's so handsome!"

"Saw it somewhere?"

"Um!"

Heywood readily admitted the incident.

That is to say, he didn't come up with this name himself, he just thought it was cool after seeing it somewhere, so he named it like this. In other words, in chronological order, the escaped "William Pirates" published in the newspaper is more like a real pirate group.

This guy in front of me.

Instead, it's like a child's play.

Combining the existing information, the "William Pirates" composed of dogs is regarded as A, the "William Pirates" composed of ruins is regarded as B, the former is employed as C, and the latter is produced as D. In an instant, I got a kind of conjecture, a kind of frightening conjecture.

"Someone hired Heywood, but that's not the point. The most important thing is that there was another person or organization who created the real 'William Pirates'."

Emily told my guess, even more detailed than I thought.

"It is said to be a fabrication, because the real 'William Pirates' were captured and imprisoned, so it is impossible not to discover that 'the members are ruins'. The only possibility is that 'they were still human before they escaped'. "

In other words, someone gave this pirate group a chance to escape from prison, and at the same time took the opportunity to transform them into ruins, and let them attack the Grace. It is impossible to know whether he was aiming at this ship or accidentally selected this ship, but thinking of another matter, the former seems more likely.

Because someone hired Heywood's fake "William Pirates".

The two pirates with the same name seemed to be deliberately confusing their eyes.

It is more likely that the employer and the maker are the same person.

"This may be an action against the Alexander Empire, or against the aristocratic group, or even against members of the royal family."

Brown came to this conclusion.

After all, Lilith is on this ship.

Makes sense anyway.

"What are your plans?"

"There is nothing about this matter yet. The brave man and Lilith, I, and I will go to Iceland according to the previous plan...but someone and the imperial family need to be reminded."

"I get it, I'll do it."

"And, help us pay attention to an organization a little bit."

"organize?"

"An organization called 'Warren'."

"Warren... I see."

"Thank you so much."

After Emily simply finished her request, she had no intention of continuing to speak.

The topic was interrupted suddenly.

Given the seriousness of the matter, Brown seemed in no mood to liven things up.

I looked at the deputy who was still out of the situation and couldn't help but want to laugh.

In any case, although there are too many inside stories about this incident, it is still a good thing to get through the crisis safely. Next, just wait for the Grace to arrive in Iceland, and then start the trip to Iceland... Speaking of which, where is Lilith? Although I knew that she needed to entertain various affairs, I didn't expect it would take so long.

Before leaving the deck, Mingming specifically mentioned to her "come to the captain's cabin when you have time".

As a result, it hasn't come yet.

I was about to leave with Emily when the door of the captain's room was suddenly opened.

Lilith is outside the door.

"Your Highness?"

"Sorry, am I late?"

"No, it's better to say yes, just right?"

I replied like this, and then looked at Qiuqiu floating beside Lilith.

She stretched out her right hand to me and made a "no problem" gesture, and I was relieved. It looked like nothing more would happen until we got to Iceland.
