《The Aria Chronicles》Pirates II

“Why isn’t captain surrendering?” Screamed the man not far from me. I also thought the same, according to common sense, that captain should have hung the white flag and surrendered but he didn’t.
The captain of this ship seemed to be behaving very erratically, he should have surrendered first when he saw that opposite party have Frigate with them as it could easily blast of passenger ship like it.
Time ticked by and energy ball in front of the Shipbreaker got darker and darker.
Seeing that there is no stopping that shipbreaker cannon from firing that shot, chaos erupted on the deck and people became batshit crazy seeing shipbreaker could launch the shot any second and deck could be the target.
If it hit the deck, then except for those Level 3 warriors, it will be impossible for others to survive.
Time ticked by and a minute later, energy ball seemed to have reached its final limit.
Seeing that, all the craziness has died down and everyone became silent and gazed toward energy ball as everyone’s fate depended on it. Everyone started to activate whatever defensive means they have as safety.
Many people started activating their defensive artifacts while those who don’t have any defensive artifacts like me stared to use their energy to cover themselves.
I also covered myself in my energy, I didn’t care if anyone sensed I am vampire through my blood energy.
It didn’t even matters anyway as we long past kingdom boundary and even if it had mattered I wouldn’t have cared as surviving this ordeal is most important than the future repercussions I will face.
Boom
The energy ball released from the Shipbreaker and it came piercing through the air toward the passenger ship, it’s speed is so fast that our eyes we’re barely able to catch sight of it.
In less than a second it reached near the shield and able to breach like a thin paper, the shield was not able to stop it even for a second.
BANG! Buzzzz
The energy ball directly crashed into the ship and I heard the loudest sound in my life, louder than when I had an accident and died. This noise is worst if I had my normal body, I would have fainted on the spot bleeding.
The energy ball did not target the deck but it crashed very close to it and when the energy ball of explodes, it started to destroy all, many things on the deck started to blast apart and their splinter’s flying everywhere.

‘Ahhhhh……….’
As my hearing slowly return, I started to hear the screams and these screams were the most heart-wrenching screams I’ve ever heard and when I looked from the safety of the counter, I saw the reason for their screams which made me horrified.
The deck is completely bloodied, The body parts could be seen littered around the deck, some people had their whole body blasted apart while others lost their limbs.
Seeing such a gory scene, I felt very thirsty and nauseated at the same time.
I started to take a couple of breaths to calm myself and only after a few minutes did I able to get control over my thrust and nauseous feeling I am getting.
After calming, myself enough, I again took a good look at the carnage in front of me and I got feeling that I will be seeing such scenes on a regular basis in the future.
Those who are injured and dead were all Level 1 worries, those of Level 2 survived with serious injuries as for those of Level 3, they didnt have any injuries as their energy or defense artifacts were able to hold off the splinters.
Those who were hiding behind the sturdy things are very lucky as we come out next to no injuries. I felt I had been hit by small splinters but I didnt much care as with my healing power, whatever injury I got will heal in a few minuits.
Huddle….
Suddenly airship shook loudly and when I looked outside, I was shocked by what I saw.
The shield of the airship had been completely decimated by the pirates and now they are throwing ropes at the airship, near the big hole made by the blast of the
As for the cannons on the airship, they somehow destroy it. I thought they would need to fire more than one of Shipbreaker to infiltrate inside the airship but the single-shot had done the job.
As all three of the airships had finished the attaching iron ropes to the passenger ship, they started to fix the clips to the ropes to get into air one airship.
Connecting ropes between two airships is a very dangerous thing especially when both airships hostile, only pirates do something crazy as a simple mistake could plunge one to death.
Only those at Level 6 could survive such fall, all below it will die for sure.
On the front were two people, one is the burly man who is wearing ruffled black cloths had several runic guns and thick saber hanging by his waist while the other one is wearing a white suit with a white porcelain mask above his face.

As for the weapon, he had a sword and the Gun by his waist.
My heart started to beat faster seeing this, pirates on the ship were never a good thing.
As I thought that pirates will sure get into the ship, I sensed the intense energy fluctuation at the level of my father from our airship, A level 4.
Sup! Sup!
The next moment I heard the sound of two bullets, the aura released through the bullets is so intense that it making before hard to breathe including me.
I have sensed this type of aura many times from my parents to know that this is the attack launched by the Level 4 warrior with Level 4 Gun artifact.
They are finished! I thought as I looked the burly mana and masked man who are coming down from the rope.
As the two gunshots near two pirates, the burly pirate activated the shield in front of him while the masked man just gripped his sword tightly.
Bang! Shing!
The first energy bullet crashed on the shield of the burly man with the ear-piercing bang and except going back on the rope a little he didn’t seem to suffer any bodily damage but the shield he was holding for seemed have suffered quite a damage as one could clearly seem the spiderweb-like cracks appearing on the shield.
The one who shocked me most is the masked man as the bullet came close to him, he simply swung his sword and bullet got sliced in two.
The bullet is fired by Level 4 warrior was sliced in two by the Level 3 warrior, it felt incomprehensible, I never thought he will be able to do and even if he somehow able to do that, he will be heavily injured but he looked absolutely fine.
This is amazing! I have heard about people fighting above their level but it is my first time seeing it, I would have really liked to know his battle power but regretfully, he is out of my sensory range.
Bang Shing bang Shing…..
The hail of bullets started to come out from the airship, these attacks are not only coming from Level 4 but many Level 3 and Level 2 worriers as well but regretfully these hail of bullets are no way stopping the pirates, especially that masked man.
No matter how many bullets came in his way, they were cut by the swing of his sword.
The battle happening is so fast that I barely able to see anything clearly but the sound aftereffects are enough to tell me what is happening.
As for the burly pirate, he seemed really battered, the shield which he is using to defend is completely wretched and looked like it collapse any second.
The Level 4 warrior and others from the passenger ship seemed to be concentrate on attacking Level 3 masked man than a burly pirate who is level above him.
In midst of a hail of bullets, the two pirates had finally reached the airship through the hole and what happened after that I wasn’t able to see anything as my view had been obstructed by the wall but I can hear the different types of ear-piercing sounds and dangerous fluctuations of battles.
If not for the sturdy wall that is protecting us, half of the people would have already died from the fluctuation but still, many people lost there due to stray bullets that came out of the wall.
I am extremely lucky to have hidden behind the very sturdy bar counter otherwise, I would have been one of those unlucky ones who had lost their lives by stray attacks of those who are fighting on the other side.
The intense fighting continued for nearly an hour before everything went silent but within an hour countless people had lost their lives and they were not even involved in the fight.
A few minutes after the fight had quieted down, I saw pirates from all three ships had started to enter through the ropes.
Till now only two pirates had entered the ship but now fifty-something are entering one after another in the airship.
“Pi...pirates are coming.” Someone said shudderingly, I also shudder thinking that.
Pirates are never a good thing in the airship, their cruel and bloodthirsty nature will always reveal no matter how good they are.
Bang!
The prates didn’t come for some time as we all were huddled and scared but about half an hour later, we heard a large bang and the wall that separating deck from other areas collapsed and pirates started poured into the deck including burly pirate and masked pirate.
