My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 644: Space Merchant Rescue

Within minutes, the battle was over. The remaining space monsters were destroyed, and the pirates were disarmed and captured. The pirate leader and elders got taken aboard for questioning while the others got imprisoned.

The merchant fleet was battered, but its main flagship was much or less intact. They gathered around the ES Nirvana mothership to express their gratitude.

The ES Nirvana’s supreme commander, Elysia, opened a telepathic channel to the merchant fleet commander in his flagship. "Your fleet is safe."

"I am Haldeall, the leader of the Kraken Thistle Merchant Fleet. I represent my entire crew, which is eternally grateful for your immediate help. Please allow us to show our sincerity, savior." Haldeall put his hand on his head, responding telepathically even though he had no idea how this discreet long-distance communication worked.

"Alright. Dock at Terminal-004, the one with the green signal. Your fleet is targeted. We will take you to the nearest safe harbor." Elysia relied, but she handed over the rest to ES Nirvana’s Xen System.

Honestly, she didn’t feel the need to deal with Kraken Thistle, including digging up information from them. She already foresaw the future, but she still had to follow some of the original routes because this merchant fleet would give them an opportunity for an immediate visit to the supermassive space station codenamed Imperial Palace, the central command of the Aegis Intergalactic Empire.

"Understood." Haldeallput on his captain’s hat and saluted.

He and his close aides felt that entering the other’s mothership might be risky, but ES Nirvana was their savior, so nobody dared to raise suspicion blatantly because if ES Nirvana attacked them, they would be destroyed in less than a minute.

With that kind of combat power and massive spaceship, they assumed ES Nirvana was a righteous upper-class noble, most likely a Duke-class, who happened to be passing by.

"We are transporting top-secret items to the Chomik 90 Plane. What did they say? Are you sure it will be okay?" The nearby aide voiced his worry in a whisper, aware that the crew was starting to grow restless.

"If we doubt our savior, then we will be as good as dead meat. They have the combat power to obliterate us within a minute and take over everything with ease. It’s a Duke-level combat force. Do you think such an upper-class noble would be interested in a mere small gem?" Haldeall shook his head with a sigh.

He reassured all the crew about the situation, ordering all fleets to go to ES Nirvana’s Terminal-004 as the green signal was already there.

Although the communication request was not connected and there was no connection bridge, only telepathic messages between the fleet commanders, Haldeall stelled himself and entered the terminal.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*

Several mechs flew by, carrying the captured pirates and the loot abroad. The merchant’s crew observed those mechs more closely, feeling a little chill when remembering those killing machines destroying the space monsters and pirate’s fleet so easily.

The mechs were varied, but all of them were relatively large, holding terrifying destructive power. However, the most terrifying one soon came into view as it approached from behind.

They initially thought that one was just like the others, no more than a ten-story building, but that mech was larger than expected. It became so intimidating up close. With a size that rivaled a mid-sized spaceship in their fleet, it flew closer carrying a tier-5 space monster’s carcass.

"A tier-5 space monster, but it can’t even last a minute before that colossal mech. Who exactly is ES Nirvana..." Haldeall paled when that colossal terrifying mech, the biggest mech he had ever seen, passed by.

It was already terrified him, but the dead monster it carried made him feel a chill creeping from the tip of his toes to the top of his head.

He never expected such a calamity monster to lurk somewhere close. If such a monster would join the siege, his fleet would surely perish before ES Nirvana arrived.

The crew whispered among themselves, vowing to honor the ES Nirvana. They did so not because their commander ordered them to, but because they were grateful and also impressed, in awe of ES Nirvana’s combat power and pure intention. Most of them rarely got to meet a nobility, let alone a righteous upper-class noble. It came like an unexpected wind, shone like a beacon, and saved them from the brink of destruction.

"We blasted it dead with just one shot..." Ai mumbled, not expecting that their first move would be that devastating.

They fired the main cannon in the mech’s chest, but who would have thought that the power output would be comparable to ES Nirvana’s anti-matter plasma blast. The divine magic usage for the mech’s firepower was stronger than expected.

"We also obliterated a huge asteroid by accident. But, we can’t call it a mech test. We need to control our power output more carefully. We have three Goddesses and one prospective immortal for this." Elena faintly smiled as it couldn’t be helped.

"Mm..." Elysia nodded in reply.

She unleashed a shot to trigger the world boss calamity space monster, but it blasted the monster’s head instead. She and her sisters did not expect that the mech, Xentia’s new masterpiece, would amplify their power output by almost ten times, causing the monster boss to die so quickly before they could test the mech’s capabilities. It should be a casual charge for an opening attack...

"Do we need to go for another round?" Xentia looked back, feeling both proud and pleased. She created this mech for a personal reason, but the divine energy made the result better than expected.

"It’s okay, Xen. We have plenty of time for the next three days to test this baby more. We need to greet the merchant boss and get them to help us secure our ticket to the Imperial Palace now." Elysia shook her head. They had already returned to ES Nirvana.

"Understood." Xentia nodded in understanding.

"..." Elysia paused for a moment, staring at Xentia’s bottom. She was well seated with all the main controls on both hands and feet, assisted by her sisters by her sides. However, Xentia as the maneuver control was there, showing off that thick plump peach...

It was as if Xentia tried to incite her to do something, but a thought about spanking Xentia suddenly crossed her mind.

"But, how do you come up with this design and placement? Are you asking for a spank, eh?" Elysia put her hand on Xentia’s hips and gave a good spanking on Xentia’s cakes.

"Eh-ahn!~" Xentia yelped in surprise, not expecting her master would suddenly spank her.

"Your divine ascension is drawing near. The day after tomorrow is your exclusive time. Be well prepared for it." Elysia got up from the main control seat. The mech had landed safely, standing at the front of the mech formation, waiting for the merchant fleet to dock at Terminal-004.

"Understood, master..." Xentia blushed and meekly nodded.

"A lost cause." Elena shrugged her shoulders.

"I’m going." Ai threw herself back into Elysia’s shadow.

Seeing that, Zera emerged from the corner and entered Elysia’s shadow as well.

"Geez, why don’t you stay by my side a little longer?" Elysia was a bit helpless because Ai spent too much time in her shadow.

"This is also your side, Lil Ely." Ai stated the obvious.

"Hm, you’re right..." Elysia tapped her chin, feeling what Ai said made sense.

A few moments later, the merchant fleet docked at the designated spot. Of the sixteen spaceships, six were destroyed, leaving ten consisting of four cargo ships, one flagship, two battleships, one destroyer, and two heavy cruisers.

Haldeall, a blue octopus humanoid with four arms and legs, the leader of the Kraken Thistle Merchant Fleet got off the flagship, followed by his aides and several capable crew. They felt a bit intimidated as they were literally surrounded by a troop of high-tier mechs.

"Women?" Haldeall wondered as several people emerged from their mechs. He was a bit shocked to realize most of them were females, but they just stood on top of their mechs, not even removing their helmets.

As the biggest mech’s cockpit opened, he immediately became nervous, realizing it was most likely the leader of this elite troop, the one who had spoken with him earlier.

Elysia flew down from her exclusive mech, escorted by Elena and Xentia. She manifested a round table out of thin air with her imaginary magical creation. As she sat with Elena and Xentia by her sides, she beckoned to the merchant leader and his aides came closer.

"How are you?" Elysia kindly asked the guests to take their seats in the opposite seats across the table. She spoke via telepathic voice, conveying her words directly to the mind without needing to open her mouth.

"!!!" Haldeall realized something.

He could finally connect with this telepathic frequency and replied in kind. "Pleased to meet you, lady. I, Haldeall, once again express our most sincere gratitude."

After saying that, he took out a box to the table. "Please accept this small token of our gratitude."

"We decided to help you out of kindness. We’re not expecting this, but okay." Elysia acted indifferently.

The situation from the divination was a bit gray. She acted a bit friendly to these guests in the divination timeline, but that only made them wary and suspicious, although they would still help her to the Merchant Union’s network.

Because she changed the method by playing all high and mighty cards, then the aloof and cold attitude typical of nobility was the best choice to deal with the new person.

"Uh, thank you for your generosity. If it’s not too much, could you drop us off at the Chomik 90 Plane? It’s quite close to our current location." Haldeall tried to test the other party’s bottom line, knowing it would be the best, safest choice.

"Sure. Since we’ve decided to help, then perhaps we will help you out all the way. Give us your exact destination coordinates. We’ll drop you off if it’s nearby." Elysia seemed to have already expected it, agreeing without question.

"Err, are you a member of the nobility of Aegis?" Haldeall ventured to find out more, but he felt a little awkward since the other party never introduced themselves.

"For your safety, you shouldn’t know too much." Elysia faintly smiled, replying with a vague response.

"I see. Perhaps this meeting is fate." Haldeall’s expression brightened, pleased that his guess was most likely correct. He then gave his exact destination coordinates through his virtual device.

Elysia handed the gift and the coordinates to Xentia. She then rested her head on her hand. "We may arrive in a few minutes, but I’m feeling bored right now. Tell me something interesting."

"W-well, it’s our honor." Haldeall felt a little awkward, but he became more polite after being convinced that this lady was a righteous nobility.
