《Airi in a Thousand Worlds》The Abandoned Hero is Overpowered! (9)
Advertisement
Gooooood morning!
Eh?
What’s this? What’s this?
Fairy is suddenly in an uncomfortable place.
Gee~z! Even though Fairy has finally become a proper human(appearance)!
“Muuu…”
Currently, Fairy has no idea where she was.
“Over my dead body!!!”
Eh? What?
“Foolish man. Your life would not have been wasted had you given the girl to me quietly.”
Huuuuuuu~h?
“Aaaaaaargh!”
“Take this!”
Nn. Fairy is very uncomfortable.
Heee~y why are you swinging Fairy around~
Currently, Satos the Party Leader is facing against three men simultaneously while protectively holding Fairy. A generic-looking villain with a totally villainous moustache stood proudly behind the three men who seemed to be his minions.
Oh, it seems like Hunter A is lying in a pool of blood.
RIP Hunter A.
Fairy will tell those spirits to properly send you back to reincarnate into a named character next time~
Anyway.
Although the two men made their way to their inn safely, how could they have known that an ambush was waiting for them.
After arriving at the inn, they met up with Hunter B and C.
Surprise!
It’s a betrayal!
Hunter B and C colluded with the town’s lord, intending to sell Fairy for a high price. The healer’s fees and trying to feed a family sure is expensive, huh~
Surprise!
It’s another betrayal!
Hunter A was apparently too taken by Fairy, thus he actually sabotaged Satos as they were running away from pursuers, intending to take Fairy for himself. In the end, the pursuers caught up! Hunter A ended up dying after a three-way struggle for the girl, but was able to inflict critical damage on his former leader.
While Fairy was unconscious, such a thing happened.
Anyway!
This is unimportant! Describing fight scenes is so tedious~
Eeeeh~
Back to the present.
Fairy can speak nao! Ehehehehehe~

Wrong!
Through sheer willpower and a burst of adrenaline, it seems like Satos was able to make a last minute dash after being cornered by the pursuers.
Wa~
He actually shook them off, how amazing~
And now, Satos is currently driving an inconspicuous cart. Fairy was hidden underneath the goods used as a camouflage.
Their destination is Bluer Port Town, in the south.
After much deliberation, he had found a solution to his current predicament.
Satos was a hunter. His job was to hunt for materials from Argen Hollow Forest. His base was in Argen Town, where the Adventurer’s Guild built one of its branch. He lived to earn money.
From the beginning, he had already decided.
He was unsure what Fairy was, but there were definitely people who would desire such a unique… thing. There were plenty of nobles across the kingdoms with those kinds of hobbies, after all.
If it wasn’t because of profit, he would not have protected her until now. Although he felt regretful, there was no way he could ever take care of her himself. Thus, his solution was to give her away, for the sake of profit.
Such was the nature of man.
The same could be said about his former teammates. They all desired the profit that they could get by selling the girl. She was like a pot of gold that suddenly dropped from the sky. Because they were not in a party together for a long time, they were able to betray each other so easily.
Well~
It doesn’t matter~
Fairy really couldn’t care less about these matters~
For the sake of hiding under the radar, Satos took the longer route, stopping only once along the way when his injuries really could not be ignored anymore.
After restocking his provisions and paying the healer’s fees for a healing spell just enough to keep him alive, he continued his journey to Bluer Port Town.

Meanwhile, Fairy was currently lazing around in boredom.
In order to decrease the burden for the horses, he removed the camouflage goods, allowing Fairy to roll around under the cloth used to hide her. Because he did not want to take any chances, he frequently reminded Fairy to stay hidden, though he allowed her to peek on the sceneries every once in a while.
The air was fresh, and the amount of spirits was sparse. Fairy was able to eat her fill. For the first time since she came to the world, she was able to sleep on a full stomach.
Yaaaaaay~

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021. Warnings: Second person is used in this work. Semi-Polished draft: Posted chapters are subject to revision as needed as things progress. Mild Profanity on occasion.
