Kazuma rushed both of us to an empty table near the corner of the Guild Hall.
"What the hell was with that?" Kazuma asked confused.
"With what?" Kazuma just deadpanned at me, "With the staring? How the hell did you get that lady to ogle you?!"
Wat.
"Wat."
No seriously, what the fuck? "Kazuma. The 𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬 does that have to do with anything? If you're so backed up, go to a fucking brothel. 𝘏𝘪𝘬𝘪𝘕𝘌𝘌𝘛."
Aqua stared at him like he was a piece of trash.
What's new?

𝘼: 𝗻𝗼!

"Ooooookay, so~. Jenny, what 𝘤𝘢𝘯 you do? Like, power-wise?"
Huh. I haven't even done my standard inventory check. "Uhm... I'm not sure but before this whole Isekai scenario, There were a few things I've noticed that just 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦'𝘯𝘵 there before."
"Like what?"
"Well, there's this HUD thing, that I would normally see in any of my armors, generic Health and Stamina bars, and some... Inventory 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨? as well as some crafting tabs-" And I spot a weirdly shaped icon and saw-
𝙈𝙔 𝙎𝙃𝙄𝙋!
"KAZUMA! I STILL HAVE MY SHIP!" Kazuma's eyes widened, "S-Ship?! You mean an 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭 space ship!?"
"Yeah! I think Selena left it in Orbit! This tab would let me beam up! I'm heading over to the fields!"
And I booked it towards the field near the forest, passing the occasional adventurer or merchant making their way to the town, with Kazuma and Aqua in tow.
-<[𝘼𝙝, 𝘾𝙧𝙖𝙥!]>-
We finally arrived at the edge, near the crossroads.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb panting quickly, collapsed on the ground.
"W-*𝘩𝘶𝘧𝘧*-whyyyyy?" Kazuma complained, his noodle legs buckled under him.
"ghhh-" And Aqua, was so out of breath she could only grunt.
Actually, her face is kinda gree-
𝘖𝘩 𝘨𝘰𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘱𝘶𝘬𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨!
"W-well, I'm just gonna place this small flag down, and I'll get to see my ship again!"
I open my Crafting Tab -and ain't that confusing.- and click on the Floran flag icon, with no resources needed.
I plop it down behind a tree and camouflage it with any shrubbery I can find.
"Now, Kazuma, I know you don't really have any knowledge about the species of Outworlders in the future, but just for your information, I was raised by Hylotls, who are three-eyed fish people that are eerily similar to the Japanese citizens from before the Space-age began."
"S-So does that mean-?" He looked me in my eyes with hope,
"Yes, I do have rice."
"UOOOOOOOOH!" and he had his own second wind.
Welp, "Here goes nothing!"

I shot up in my depowered ship, my back straight, Its lights flickering. I was sweating bullets, a sense of dread and unease slowly inching away like it was a bad dream.
𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗻'𝘁.
"T-...The hell was that?" I was too mentally drained to even yell, My body still weak and limp from my close brush from total ▇▇▇.
"That was my mistake, Hero." A smooth and gentle voice spoke up from across the darkened hall.
It was Selena.
She glided across the hall with almost ethereal grace, befitting an Entity of her stature.
She helped me up to my feet, "I'm sorry, Hero. I hadn't believed you would have found out about your ship so quickly, so I forgot to put in protections from the 𝐚𝐛𝐲𝐬𝐬."
When she said 𝐚𝐛- 𝙁𝙪𝙘𝙠! I held my head, while I winced in pain.
"I've just come to tell you that while you were passed out, I've taken the liberty to add the missing protections, and adjust the Time stream so you don't worry your companions."
I honestly don't think that's a viable apology to the shit-show I just witnessed, I shiver when I remember the 𝘿𝙖𝙧𝙠-
"Ah! I should also tell you this, but I called in a favor from an Agricultural God, so now, all crops onboard your vessel, the 'P.H.C. Hunter', are now blessed!"
and she was gone.
"Bye~!" was the only reminder she was ever here in the first place.
-<[𝘼𝙝, 𝘾𝙧𝙖𝙥!]>-
After... an embarrassing amount of time spent catching my breath on the hard-wood flooring, I raised from my slack position.
I need to see A.L.I.A.S!
I rush to the cockpit, the Panel to the left, and a Majestic view of Isseoroth from the window, the sun over the equator
"Whoa..."
Wai-SHIT! ALIAS!
I run over to the panel, and my finger has never hit the Emergency power button so fast.
The Generators come to life with a hum, lights and other appliances flicker for the last time, before turning on completely.
A certain blue lady breathes life (figuratively) once again.
"𝙷𝚎𝚢, 𝚑𝚎𝚢, 𝙴𝚊𝚛𝚝𝚑 𝚝𝚘 𝙻𝚘𝚌𝚊𝚕 𝙻𝚒𝚏𝚎𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖, 𝚐𝚞𝚎𝚜𝚜 𝚠𝚑𝚘𝚜 𝚋𝚊𝚌𝚔?" Alias cheerfully exclaims from the speakers.
"Alias! You're back!"
The AI gives me a deadpan stare, "𝚆𝚎𝚕𝚕 𝚍𝚞𝚑, 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚕𝚎𝚏𝚝, 𝚕𝚒𝚔𝚎, 𝚊𝚗 𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚊𝚐𝚘? 𝙷𝚘𝚠𝚜 𝚝𝚑𝚎 '𝚁𝚞𝚒𝚗' 𝚜𝚒𝚝𝚞𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚗𝚘𝚠?"
I wince, and Alias's eyes narrow, "𝙹𝚎𝚗𝚗𝚢..."
"Uh... So, y'see, Its... dead, bu-"
"𝚆𝚑𝚊𝚝. 𝙳𝚒𝚍. 𝚈𝚘𝚞. 𝙳𝚘."
"I died."
A beat passed
Alias's expression locked, and I could hear sounds of frustrated confusion, "𝚠𝚑𝚊- 𝚑𝚘𝚠 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚏- 𝚑𝚞𝚑?!"
"Yeah, so you know how some nerds in the Protectorate discovered that souls exist?"
"𝚈𝚎𝚊𝚑? 𝚆𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚎 𝚒𝚜 𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚜 𝚐𝚘𝚒𝚗𝚐?"
I let out a loud sigh, "*𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩*, where I'm going with this, Is that I got isekai'd to 'save' this world from a... a Daemon Lord."
"...𝙻𝚒𝚔𝚎 𝙳𝚎𝚖𝚘𝚗 𝙻𝚘𝚛𝚍, 𝚘𝚛 𝙳𝚊𝚎𝚖𝚘𝚗 𝙻𝚘𝚛𝚍?"
"Daemon Lord with an a."
"𝙰𝚑."
"Yep. Wanna see what else is here?" I ask the bubbly AI.
"𝚂𝚞𝚛𝚎!"
