Order of the Elements - Chapter 73: The Art of Deception

‘Lil Schweiz’, a famous pirate in the southern seas.

While on a smooth voyage, shocking news fell upon her.

“The Admiral is coming.”

Despite the hot weather, chills ran down her spine. Lil took her eyes off her hands and looked up at Alain, the boatswain.

Not that she didn’t hear him, but she wanted to check again.

“Who?”

“The Admiral of the Peninsula! That madman! Admiral Retiro!”

That infamous admiral, known for skinning the heads of pirates he captured and throwing their limbs as food for the cannibal fish, the one with an eccentric and bizarre reputation will come to the South.

“It will be for the best to not cross his path. We should get out of here before he arrives!”

But there’s one thing that Lil doesn’t know…

[I, Lil, are notifying you, Ed, that you’ve been punished respectfully according to the Sesbron etiquette.] …It’s a setup!

“I’m glad I have a role in this interesting play.”

He briefly looked up at the sunlight passing through the huge veil. The sky above his head soon became covered in several ivory lights.

“It’s a good one, it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

A marine romance fantasy between a pirate captain and the admiral!

If you ever receive a letter offering you admission to a university in another world, do yourself a favor and toss it straight into the trash—especially if that university trains girls to transform into giant mechs and battle space aliens.No. Just no.Believe me, I know from experience. What once seemed like a dream is now more of a nightmare. My name is Zaft Callahan, and I enrolled in an engineering support course on the cyberpunk planet Xyraxis. At this university, genetically-engineered girls are trained to transform into giant mechs called Warfare Augmented Intelligent Frame Units. My goal is to become a support unit for these WAIFUs in their battles against Cosmic Beasts, using the Weaponry Enhancement Engineering Bios System.Little did I know I’d be partnered with my high school nemesis—Myrrh Alicent, a beautiful WAIFU. Together, we must navigate this university’s endless twists and turns, win tournaments, battle Cosmic Beasts, and even uncover the mysteries of an Outer God. And as if that weren’t enough, we still have to face the ultimate challenge: surprise quizzes in advanced calculus.What to expect:Cyberpunk World Isekai.First Person View of a Male MC with an overpowered Support System with LitRPG elements.Female MC turns into giant mech. What else do you want for a WAIFU?Slice of university life full of brainrot comedy, fluffy romance, and some weird ecchi.Space battles, mecha tournament, and eldritch horror enemies.

Lane Allen, an A-rank Guide, got injured on an emergency mission suppressing a dungeon break, and perished in his almost-lover’s arms.As the remaining members of his team continued to fight for their lives, in a fancy apartment in a distant part of the city, a young man opened his eyes.“Phew… That hurt like hell…”“It’s a bit of a shame to switch so soon… But I guess it is what it is.”“Anyway, who should I become next?”Actually, Lane Allen was not a Guide, but rather an Esper with a mysterious Plunder ability! It allowed him to possess other people’s bodies, and steal their awakened abilities. Keeping his real body safe, Lane could enjoy life to the fullest, constantly swapping identities, and doing whatever he wanted without ever worrying about the consequences! How great was that?Except…Damien Lennox grabbed Lane’s arm, and pressed him against the wall, his clear green eyes staring down at Lane intently, as if he could see right through him. “There’s no one else whose guidance feels so harsh and chaotic, yet pleasing at the same time.”It seems that Damien was somehow able to recognize Lane even after switching identities, and is unwilling to let him go?
