Everlasting Strike

(Pablimo Plains, 20,000 feet above ground level, 82 kilometers West from Kalren City)

The blue sky extended endlessly before Terroriser's eyes. He could feel the soft wind caressing his face as white clouds passed close to his eyes.

It was a scenery a normal person could not enjoy in his life. Even the people back on Earth, few people would have had the opportunity to enjoy something like this.

Currently, Terroriser was standing on the deck of an airship.

Ever since being in that city for more than a week, finding a rented home, gaining money, facing strange adventures and stuff, it was a tough time. But then, after their little party in the Guild, that same Receptionist just showed up and announced to everyone that the Guildmaster had requested that they will aid the city called Kalren... kinda sounds like Karen if you misheard it for the first time. 

But they didn't refuse to go, because you know, anyone who managed to save the city survived and not running away from battle like a little bitch, they will be rewarded with ten thousand Euros. Such rewards cannot be ignored.

Unfortunately, only E to A-rank Adventurers would be allowed to be in the quest, but he and Nogla were still F-rank Adventurers as their promotion will be a day after the quest. However, just earlier in the morning, they didn't expect to get promoted early.

Well, luck I guess.

As the day has come, Terroriser, Nogla, and 500 other Adventurers went aboard to a very large airship, even larger than the one they rode since their first human contact in this world!

The two were very surprised when the Guildmaster showed it to them. Terroriser had heard of airships since last time on earth, but he never rode one until transported here, also this is his second time riding such one.

And also, this airship is much better! It has a bar, a fighting arena, and even seeing a perfect view outside.

Well, there are some airships back on earth but Brian rarely rode any other flying vehicles besides an Airplane when he was once on Earth, so there was no opportunity for him to use an airship.

And to be honest, he sometimes regretted not being born in this world. It was completely different from flying using a helicopter, or an airplane. When you traveled in an airship, you could go to the deck to enjoy the soft and cold high-altitude wind and observe the beautiful scenery below without any loud noise that annoys the peaceful moment; something that you could not do when using an airplane or a helicopter.

But it was not as though Terroriser was completely satisfied with the airship.

Well, the trip was certainly comfortable, but when Brian and his friend Nogla saw the airship, Nogla didn't mind it but Terroriser, his scans showed so many things that his engineer mind could not help but come up and criticize the countless flaws and non-efficient parts of this luxurious vehicle.

He found the shape of the airship absurd. The airship was like a dirigible with a deck propelled by magic. Thanks to going to the Library a few days ago, he learned a lot.

And seeing such a waste of resources, he couldn't help but give out a sign of frustration. It just burned a lot of magic stones (A kind of mineral contains a small amount of mana) to activate several arrays which gave the airship the ability to fly in the air.

That method was not completely wrong, but it greatly limited the airship maximum speed. It could hardly reach one hundred kilometers per hour.

Well, he indeed liked to be a mechanical engineer when he was a kid, it made sense when he knew a lot about those things. But being a gaming youtuber and playing with his friends is more fun.

During the time Terroriser had been in the airship, he had thought already of more than eight modifications he would have done to this vehicle to improve its efficiency. With Minecraft logic in his hands, modifying it will be abit more easy.

Unfortunately, he still doesn't know much more about Airships and the mechanics and science in this world. Second, he doesn't have enough resources.

In the end, he forced himself to just keep his ideas in his mind. However, he promised himself that one day, he would create his own airship. He already had the basic idea in his mind. He was planning to design it with a more luxurious bar, a swimming pool, a movie theater, and something that he and his friends would have more fun with.

Unfortunately, he was not sure how long he was going to need before making that image reality.

"Brian, you are here." A deep voice came from behind Terroriser. 

When he turned around, he found his friend Nogla walking towards him eating a bucket of Chick-Fil-A chicken.

"So, what are you thinking?" He asked as he ate another chicken.

"Oh nothing, just thinking about how bad the design of this Airship is."

"Okay, but still, the bar section is the best."

"Yeah, still, I fucking hate it."

Standing on the deck in silence, the only noise heard was Nogla's munching.

*Munch!* *Munch!* *Munch!*

Couldn't hold up his anger, Terroriser exclaimed, "Jesus Christ, Nogla, would you shut the fuck up? It's kinda annoying."

"What? I'm just eating my chickens!"

"Yeah, try to be silent because I am enjoying standing on this deck, enjoying this peaceful view! I just want a rest after this chaotic week."

"Okay..."

Returning back to the view, Terroriser gave out a relaxing sign.

'I guess this world is not that bad afterall... I wonder if the others have more fun than us, especially Vanoss and Wildcat, they seem to be the main characters in this story type. I wonder what they are up to.'

———

*Shiing!*

"Evan! Talk to your little family here! Your a fucking owl, speak to them or something!!" Tyler shouted panickingly as he cut an oversized carnivorous Owl in two while flying in air using his elytra. 

These creatures Wildcat and Vanoss were fighting appear to have the face and wings of an owl, body and traits of a Jaguar.

They're more like griffins but with several different animals besides an eagle and Lion mixing.

Meanwhile, Vanoss was currently flying around, being chased by those three bloodthirsty owls.

Vanoss shrugged, "Well, I tried! And their response said they want to eat our asses tonight!"

"Wait, you can talk to them?" He asked while killing another Owl beast with his enchanted Diamond Axe.

"Fuck no, I can't! I'm speaking sarcastically! This annoying fucks are pissing me off!"

Finally killing all of the Owls Vanoss and Wildcat did, six more suddenly showed up.

"Ah, this is horse shit!!" Tyler shouted, he was about to take a machine gun and his Bazooka out of his inventory, but before he did that, Vanoss interrupted him.

"Hold up! I need to try that thing for the first time."

"You gonna use that? You know the last time you used it, you try to slash a small boulder, but instead a fucking mountain almost collapse on our asses!"

"Give me a chance, first of all, we're on the air. I'm gonna tell ya, it will be A. O. K."

Spawning a sword sheath on his waist, Vanoss holds the handle while still gazing at the six hungry Owls.

"Hope it works."

As the predatory owls prepared to slice the Owl man down, Vanoss activated his skill that he trained for a few days or almost a week; now, on this day, he finally used it on multiple targets that had entered his attack range.

[Everlasting Strike]

*Click!*

A clicking noise echoed the sky, and a speed that can be described as a bolt of lightning, Vanoss' figure turned bright white for a split second before he appeared behind the six owls, still holding the sword's handle sheathe.

*Spurt!*

The fluid cut whooshed quietly through the air. If not for the present situation, it would have been a sound which people would want to listen to.

"What the fuck?"

Before Tyler knew it, all of the owls' heads decapitated as their bodies fell to the plains below.

Not only the creatures he and Vanoss were fighting were killed within an instant, what made Wildcat so surprised is that the swing from Vanoss was faster than he could see...

Its speed was beyond his dexterity...

Seeing such performance and brutality, Wildcat couldn't help but open his jaws wide.

Lifting his head, Vanoss turned behind him and was astonished by the result.

"Woah! Holy shit, I actually fucking did it! I thought it would take years to master this shit! I never expected it would only take nearly a week! Holy shit." Vanoss said with a look of joy before turning his gaze at the enchanted Netherite Sword he held. "Did I just become Vergil?"
