Pirates

Gushiken Imai, the 3rd young miss of the Gushiken Clan. She has 2 elder sisters and 1 elder brother. Her father, Gushiken Teruyuki, has 4 wives, and she is the daughter of the fourth wife. She is also the youngest.

She had a large age gap with her siblings. When she was seven years old, her older siblings already had a job and were always busy. That's why her childhood was lonely, and because she has a shy nature, she couldn't take initiative to be friends with the other clan's children.

One day, her father told her that a guest is coming, so she had to greet them. Imai was very nervous to meet them.

When the guests arrived, Imai was so nervous that all she could do was stand still.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kiryuin Asahi" one of the guest said to her. The boy was around the same age as her. He has a handsome feature, a beautiful black hair and crimson eyes comparable to a ruby.

All Imai could do was nod.

"Are you alone? You look so lonely. Don't you have any friends?" asked the boy.

"N-no, I don't.. " Imai replied, she was about to cry, thinking that the boy might make fun of her for having no friends. However, the boy's reply surprised her.

"Really!? We're the same then! Wanna be friends?" the boy smiled happily, reaching his arms towards her, trying to shake her hands.

"Hehehe, what's up with that?" Imai chuckled quietly. Then she grab the boy's hand and said

"Alright then, let's be friends. I'm Gushiken Imai, nice to meet you!"

That's how the friendship of the two came to be. But one day, that friendship might turn into love.

In a certain grassland in the Kiryuin Clan Territory, Asahi is standing looking straight at the sea in the horizon. He then looked at his palm.

"Did I finally graduated in being a chuunibyou? No, that's not the case. Did I half-graduated perhaps? And I slowly stopped putting on my honor student facade too. I think I last put it on while talking to father earlier, and I don't feel like using it again." Asahi mumbled to himself.

While Asahi was still back on Earth, he always gets into his delusions most of the time when he is alone. However, after regaining his memories in this world, he somehow stopped acting like that.

"Is it because my personality from Earth and this world have merge? Or is it because magic exists here, that I unconsciously thought that there's no need to act anymore? " Asahi mumbled.

"Well, who cares? Let's just test my new ride. Dimorphos, activate. "

Asahi said. While Dimorphos could function with just his thought, Asahi still considered speaking the commands loudly, thinking that it is way cooler that way.

His left earing shined dimly and transformed into a mechanical suit of armor, covering his body.

"I don't know what the materials Dimorphos is made of, but I think it came from the same place that I saw in the vision that keeps flashing on my mind, considering that the materials are close to unbreakable. I'll call that place 'Paradise' for now." Asahi muttered to himself. "Well then, let's fly!"

A strong gust of wind blows through the grass land, and a crimson streak of light headed into the sea in an extremely fast speed can be seen in the sky, it's almost as if it was a red shooting star. It's speed was faster than the fighter jet on Earth.

An hour and a few minutes later, Asahi saw a slightly large Island in the middle of the ocean.

"Hhmm? Are those bandits? No, it's more like pirates."

The island has a few buildings built in it, there are also hundreds of pirate ships docked in the shore. While observing the situation, Asahi saw a group of men coming out in one of the ships. They were leading more than a hundred of chained people, some where the same age as him, and some are in their mid and late teens. There are boys and girls. Their body is full of bruises and some of them are crying.

Upon seeing this, a small vein appeared in Asahi's head. He was a little angry, realizing that those children were slaves.

"That's right... slaves and slave traders exists here too. It doesn't exist in the Memino and Aerstrand Kingdom, so I didn't know until now. I guess this is where I will test Dimorphos' fighting power." Asahi said quietly.

"Dimorphos, scan the pirates' base if there are slave's in there." Asahi commanded.

Then after a moment, a hologram appeared in his field of view with a word saying "Scan Completed: Slave count - none"

"Good" Asahi said with a faint smile. "Dimorphos, activate all sniper barrels, lock to the pirates."

After saying that, dozens of sniper guns appeared on Asahi's back, he then commanded-

"FIRE!"

In the eastern part of the Mainland Oveigon continent, there is a country called Caskvalor Kingdom. It is a kingdom which is known for being the second largest fishing and seafood industry in the continent after it's neighboring country, Ustrela Kingdom, which is the first. The reason for this is because both Kingdoms have a territory close to the ocean.

One of the reasons why Caskvalor Kingdom is only at second is because the current king has a bad reputation and is also known to be very greedy. He even once destroyed a small kingdom named Raunne Kingdom just because he has taken an interest to their princess. Unfortunately for him, even when the kingdom was destroyed, their princess escaped.
