Rebellion

Female pirates Futch and Buten sat around a bonfire on the beach.

It was an island we stopped by for supplies, but we were able to secure both water and meat during the day.

The pirates were relaxing in their favorite places, stuffing their bellies with venison they had caught while hunting.

"Itete..."

　Futch frowned in pain as he sipped his rum.

In the daytime, when he was beaten by the captain, the wound was stained with alcohol.

"Are you okay Futch?"

"Yeah. It's not a big wound, but the captain's attitude makes me sick. You look so good..."

"Exactly. He yelled at me when I was resting for a while. Like a hysterical man..."

　Bouten, too, remembered being yelled at on the beach, and his eyes lit with hatred.

However, there is no momentum in the complaints of the two.

He had a lot of uninteresting feelings towards the captain, Cecily, but he didn't have the courage to complain to his face.

Cecily was by far the strongest among the pirates, and has a reputation as a woman who can use reliable navigation and skillful tactics.

Explosive Flame Cecily's street name is not Date.

Even if I attacked her in her sleep, it was inevitable that she would come back to Cecily who had no chance.

She's a well-known pirate now, but she was originally a woman rumored to have been a naval officer of some country.

"Even so...he wasn't a bad guy."

　Futch began to talk about the man he had seen during the day in order to dispel his bad mood.

Bouten also responded immediately with a nasty smile on his lips.

"Yeah. I hate to force myself to attack a guy like that."

"If someone as big as you rides on me, I'm going to break my neck."

　The two gave a vulgar laugh.

"What are you talking about? That's the face of a guy you like. Even if you don't like it at first, you're the type to be happy after a while!"

　Bouten's view was a selfish prejudice, but he was correct in that he was a man who liked what he liked.

Shiro Sanada is sullen and perverted.

However, Bhuten is far from Shiro's taste.

"Even so, it was a pity.

"Not at all. And that's because the captain is a gentleman. He's a little nice-looking, and he's getting carried away."

"Yeah. It's my hobby to make men attack me in bed with that."

"Really? Who did you ask?"

"Look, there must have been a boy named Louie at the bar. It's from him."

"That girl? You used to say that to me."

"Hehe, I forced him to leave before we set sail….

　　A dark memory of desire revived in Bhuten's mind.

"You're evil, aren't you? Even so, the captain likes being attacked, isn't he a pervert?"

"Exactly. Even if he has a pompous attitude, he's like a rotten man on the inside."

　In the end, the conversation between the two reverted to swearing at the captain.

　They sensed that someone was approaching and immediately shut their mouths.

It would be a shame if the captain spoke badly of me.

As I was nervously watching for signs of a human approaching, it turned out to be Vice-Captain Janice.

"You guys are stupid.

　The vice-captain's words left the two of them speechless.

"Miss Janis, that was just a joke."

"Oh yeah. I'm seriously thinking about it..."

　Janice stopped the two who were trying to make excuses with a grin.

"I understand. Besides, I don't understand how you guys feel. We've finally shaken off the pursuit of the navy. Even if you hold a man for a while, you won't get punished."

　Futch and Buten also tapped their knees to get my will.

"That's right!"

"If everyone attacks, the morale of the pirates will rise."

　Janice nodded and put her arms around their shoulders.

"You're right. Don't you think the captain is a little too inflexible?"

　Janice's eyes shone suspiciously.

"Actually, I have a secret plan... I think you guys will like it..."

　Their voices are now whispering, and no one is listening to their conversation.

A terrifying plan of rebellion was underway in the darkness.

　It was midnight.

Captain Cecily was awakened by Vice-Captain Janice's panicked voice.

"I'm in trouble, Captain!"

"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

　Janice's voice was serious.

"Apparently, an epidemic has broken out."

　Cecily jumped up at those words.

"Who got sick?"

"Anne and Hilary, Futch and Bouten too."

"Tch, four people!"

　Cecily created a fireball in her left hand and rushed over to the patient.

The sick man's face and arms are covered in red spots that I have never seen before.

"It's clumsy, it seems like you're really sick."

"What are you going to do? Leave these guys on this island?"

"You stupid bastard! How can you do such a terrible thing? We have no choice but to kidnap a doctor or healer from somewhere and treat him."

　The captain's answer was exactly what Janice expected.

"In that case, we have to carry it to the ship. Let's seal off one of the cabins as a sick room."

"Yeah. Anyway, let's carry the sick to the boat."

　While saying that, Cecily approached the heaviest Bhuten.

"It's going to be hard, but I'll put up with it. I'll carry it now."

"S-Sorry..."

　If it was the usual Cecily, she might have seen through Bouten's goofy acting.

Had it been daylight, I might have seen that the rashes on the sick were just red dye.

However, the serious situation of the outbreak of the plague and the darkness of the night without moonlight distorted Cecily's judgment.

"Come on, get on my back."

　The flames of the bonfire revealed my back, which was held out defenselessly.

While pretending to stagger, Bhuten takes out a concealed knife and thrusts it deep into its back.

"Goo!"

　The moment I felt pain, I kicked Booten away from behind, but Cecily suffered a deep wound.

"Temee, what do you mean?"

　There was no one to answer the question, and magic attacks and bows and arrows flew from all directions.

The usual Cecily should have been able to dodge all of them and counterattack.

However, the wounds received by Bhuten are painful and the usual performance is not possible.

In particular, Vice-Captain Janice's wind cutter was so strong that it went beyond Cecily's defense and injured her thigh.

"Is that so..."

　The enemies are five people, Anne, Hillary, Futch, and Butten, centered on Janice.

In other words, these guys who said they had the plague were the rebel group.

"We don't think you can serve as captain! We'll let you die here!"

　Cecily responded to Janice's reluctance with a relaxed smile.

"Do you think you can beat this explosive Cecily? §ΛΖΛΦΓΔΧ¶ΣΓΔζ!!"

　Along with the spell, a huge amount of magical power gathered in Cecily's palm.

"Get away! Explosion magic!"

　Screaming, Janice hid in the hollow.

Janice knows the power of explosion magic, which has punched holes in numerous warships, to an extent that it's unbearable.

However, the magic did not fly towards Janis and the others, and was directed toward the earth.

A resounding roar and explosives.

Everyone was blinded by the soaring dust clouds.

"Go ho ho ho. Shit, I can't see anything!"

"It's going to be a friendly fire, don't you attack?"

"Where's the captain?"

　When the sea breeze cleared the dust and the scenery cleared, Cecily was nowhere to be seen.

"Tch, did you escape..."

　Explosion magic is powerful, but it's not something that can be fired in rapid succession.

Thinking about exhaustion from bleeding, Cecily must have temporarily withdrawn.

"What are you doing, Janice?"

　Futch asked for judgment.

Janice ponders her thoughts with a cunning face.

Cecily was badly wounded, but there was also the fear that if she pursued it too deeply, she would receive a painful counterattack.

Then you don't have to force yourself to chase it.

"I've taken so many wounds. I'm going to kill myself anyway. Let's go back to the ship instead of trying to chase it. Tell the captains who are still on the ship that they have the plague."

　The other four nodded at Janice's words.

I was afraid that everyone would get serious with Cecily.

"You guys did that to the captain..."

Luis and Thatcher, who weren't on their side, were staring at Janice and the others in stunned amazement.

Janice announces loudly with a grin.

"Starting today, I'm the captain of that ship!"

　He gave his first orders as captain.

``You guys are going to kill Lewis and Thatcher!''

　Cruel madness bared its fangs for fresh blood.
