What Do You Mean I'm The Captain Of A Yandere Mercenary Company? Chapter 93 It's Normal To Celebrate After A Successful Raid

Right now we're in a bar where most of the rcs that had participated in the pirate raid had gathered for a celebratory drink. Apparently this was arranged by so rcenary team who invited all of us to gather to celebrate.

Since Samson told us he was going, we saw no reason to decline the invitation and went to the location as well.

I've already received several cheers and claps on the back from several rcs that passed by and at least six of them had offered to buy drinks.

There were more of them who wanted to approach but Amber slamd the table angrily and told them to stop disturbing us and sent them away.

Then she went right back to drinking her beer except she now had her arm wrapped around mine while she was drinking.

Samson took care not to comnt on it and just continued on like nothing unusual was going on.

"I'll admit… You really are crazy, Tera. I'm surprised you even survived this long," Samson sighed, knocking back his beer and taking several swigs from it.

I shrugged, "I dunno, just luck I guess."

"Hell, lady… Your luck must be incredible then, to be able to pull all this shit off with all your limbs intact."

I was about to say sothing when another rc ca to our table with a bottle of beer in his hands.

Amber reacted imdiately and started hissing at him, literally.

The rc raised his hands in a placating gesture, "Woah, woah… Relax. I'm not getting her anything, just wanted to express my thanks. You might not have done it specifically for but I just want to make a toast to you."

I was a little confused but I raised my own bottle to him which he clinked his against before taking a swig out of it.

The rc then left after thanking again and walking off without even introducing himself.

Amber finally cald down after he left and I'm pretty sure she's drunk right now because she's usually not this clingy.

I suppose I should see it as a blessing that she wasn't chasing Samson away at least.

Speaking of him, the rc in question was looking at with amusent while he sipped his beer.

I gave him a look, "I don't get it, why are they treating like I did them a favour?"

Samson raised an eyebrow, "Really? Wait, you don't know?"

"Know what?"

"Just how much impact you made of course."

I gave him a look that told him I most certainly do not know what he was talking about.

He set his beer down, "Tera… Do you have any idea what would have happened if you had not suggested that plan?"

"Err… I guess we wouldn't have been able to defeat all the pirates in one go?"

He shook his head, "That's one but not the main reason I'm looking for. One thing you need to know, Tera, is that as rcs--"

"The only people you can really count on is yourself and maybe your crew," Amber cut in.

She sat up but still left her arm on mine and turned to face , her face suddenly serious.

Samson gave her a look and said nothing about her interruption but continued, "That's right. As rcs, we may enjoy the freedom that soldiers don't get, but you are pretty much alone out there and death can co to you without any warning."

I raised an eyebrow, "What does that have to do with this?"

He took another sip of his beer and placed it down slowly, "Tera… It is not an exaggeration to say that a lot of the people in this room are here today and not floating out in space is because of you."

"? But all I did was suggest so stupid plan though? The real MVPs are the military who completely wrecked the pirate battlecruiser, isn't it?"

Samson rolled his eyes, "Yeah, sure. And who was the one who made it even possible in the first place? You of course. If you hadn't co up with a plan like this, we would have been sent straight towards the pirates and engaged with them to get their attention before the battleship could get into position. I'm going to guess that half of us would be shot down before that even happened.

These guys know that too, that's why they are grateful to you."

Amber hugged to her, "Hmph… They can be grateful from a distance. No need to co all the way here and disturb us."

I patted her head, "Ok, I think you drank enough for one day. I'm taking this away now."

"Noooo… Co on, Tera… Just a little bit… I worked hard during the fight!"

"Mmhmm… If you're going back to sleep with tonight, I don't want you in a drunken ss and throwing up on my ship's floor. If you're going to do that, I'm not letting you sleep with tonight."

She quickly sobered up and gave a mock salute, "I'll stop drinking right now!"

Well, that was easy.

I turned back to Samson and ignored the blonde haired rc who had busied herself rubbing her face on my cheek.

"How's Reese? Any news from her? Speaking of which, it's been a while since I've seen Maurice and Clandice too."

He leaned back on his chair, "Yeah, her ship's repairs are coming along fine. We should be ready to head out in just two or three more days according to her. As for the other two, they're doing another hustle in the anti but they'll be back before then."

That explains why I did not see them in our raid against the pirates.

"And what are your plans for these few days?"

He half turned to gesture at the bar to send him another beer before turning back to , "Well… I think I've had enough excitent to last a few weeks so I'm just going to take it easy for the rest of the ti. I'll probably just collect the rewards from the Guild tomorrow and just kick back and relax sowhere until it's ti to go. Probably do so reading while I'm at it."

That reminds … Samson was reading a printed book which is regarded as sothing that isn't common around here.

Maybe he has seen those mory cards before?

I think he's trustworthy enough for us to share the fact that we found those mory cards that he wouldn't stab us in the back to get them.

I then leaned a little closer towards the table which got his attention.

"Samson… Could I ask if you've seen this before?"

I tapped on my Codex to display a picture of the mory card that I had taken in order to search it online.

He narrowed his eyes at the picture and inspected it for a minute before finally turning to , "What the fuck is that thing?"

"I guess you don't know what that is either?"

"Yeah, first ti I'm seeing it. What is it?"

"That's what I want to know actually. We found this in the pirate lord's ship and we have no idea what this actually is."

He took another look at it, "Hmm… If I had to guess… Seems like so kind of storage device? But I don't see how sothing that wide could be connected to any personal terminals so it would need a special reader to connect to it… Did you pull it out from so machine?"

"No, we just found them sitting in a box with so data chips."

"Maybe it's so special device that the pirates are using amongst themselves? I wouldn't be surprised if they made so kind of encrypted key or sothing that is only known amongst themselves and can only be decrypted by other pirates. Maybe this is sothing used amongst pirate lords?"

I raised an eyebrow, "Like what? So kind of proof of their title or sothing? How does one even beco a pirate lord anyway?"

Samson shrugged, "I had always just assud that once a pirate leader gathers a big enough group, people would just start recognising them as one. I don't really pay attention to pirate politics, assuming they even have any, that is."

Amber then spoke up from my side, "Don't suppose you know anyone who might give a crack at trying to read this thing?"

He shook his head, "Sorry, techies aren't really in my group of contacts I'm afraid. Never really was that big of a tech person myself. You could try to bring it to a chanic or a tech specialist though I wouldn't trust any of them around here to keep quiet about this.

If they have connections to pirates, they might know what it is and you could get marked for having sothing like this, assuming this is sothing special to the pirates of course."

"I'll keep that in mind," I assured him.

Oh well, I wasn't really expecting him to know anyway… Guess I'll just have to hold on to it for a while longer.

Experience tales with empire

Wait a minute… Maybe Mara might know sothing about it?

Guess I should call her later.
