Hye spread orders, and then his fleet did as he said. Luckily attacking wasn't that hard as steering the ships. And in less than half an hour, he was on another spree to hijack more spaceships.
Before he'd move, he gave the order to the lady nymph, "it's showtime sweet princess, go all out and show me how you'll do it," he paused for a moment there before reminding her of the deal the two had, "you'll give me crystals and ships, the rest is yours to take."
"Hahahaha, great! I'm going to f*ck them up, hahahaha!"
"Don't try to fill any ship with warriors or anyone. We don't have enough skilled pilots, right?"
"Sure, I'm after inventories and treasures there, not the ships. Take them, take them all, hahahaha!"
"Collect them for me!" he shouted but she was already impatient to move out. As he watched the distant streams of lights coming towards here, he knew she was going to join the battle.
"Hopefully she'll collect them," he shook his head before going out. He started to collect the loot, while his fleet was still opening fire at the far away targets.
This time the enemy didn't give him any time to breathe. They watched what he did before, and realised that he was a space pirate, trying to grab all the ships and kill those onboard.
At this stage of war, he didn't care about fighting a side against the other. It was his chance to strengthen his fleet, and survive the assault both sides prepared beforehand.
Later on he'd retreat, train more warriors, before coming here and do what he intended from before.
Both slides underestimated Hye. He didn't need much time to take the ships cleared by his Soulers. The time needed to just touch the ships and suck them into his inventory was much less than the time needed to go inside, refill them with his warriors, before jumping out and visiting more ships.
In just half an hour, he gained and collected many ships. They were small ones, but he was quite satisfied with that. The enemy was focusing on his fleet until the nymph lady joined the fight.
When she appeared, she landed over the enemies like an unstoppable avalanche. She got much more ships than him, and she came from outside, attacking the unprepared enemies.
As the initial clash ended up in destroying many spaceships, she spread out her fleet, mimicking what he was doing, before going out and collecting the loot.
She didn't focus just over the ships, but also on the dead bodies of those who were inside them. This made her spend more time in collecting the loot, and soon enough the enemy started to arrange their fleets, sending more towards her direction.
"I hope she knows what she is doing," when Hye saw the incoming large fleets of spaceships towards her direction, he couldn't help but turn and hoped she was aware of what was coming towards her.
"Retreat!" The moment the enemy fleets came close, she returned back to her big ship, and ordered a full out retreat. She hurried towards the spot she moved from, a place that not a single enemy would dare to come close from.
"B*tch!" The moment Hye saw her drawing back, he knew what she wanted to do. She wanted to leave him behind, and all these fleets would turn around and come towards his direction.
Seeing this made him hurry back to his small ship, "why did you do that?" he couldn't help but shout in the central communication system, while steering his ship to move as fast as possible, evading the incoming disaster.
"You said yourself, you'll keep them busy and I'll handle them from the side,"' she had zero guilt or regret, making him feel a bit speechless. He even was this close from messing up a sharp turn he planned to do to evade incoming dense waves of fire.
"Stay ready then," he couldn't say anything but this, "once they are focused on me, hit them hard."
"There are twenty big ships there…"
"Don't tell me you are afraid!" he feared the worst, and so planned to retreat as well if he needed to.
"I want to loot everything from them, hahahaha," she acted totally the opposite of what he expected, "just make sure they are too deep into you before I'll come."
"That means totally bad if taken in another contest," he muttered while returning to focus on the ongoing battle. He knew she had a point there, these ships must be filled with tons of forces and riches.
For a moment there he grew interested in looting these ships' forces from their inventories. He was quite sure he'd reap tons of things, but it wasn't safe right now to do it.
"Better to just stick to the initial plan," he sighed before giving his orders to everyone, letting them move fast, firing without aim, and making sure they were drifting towards one direction, away from the place of the nymph lady's fleet.
"We need more ships!" The moment she joined the battle again, she managed to deal a good blow to the fleets chasing Hye. The latter knew what she said was true, but he didn't want to retreat just now.
"We can do it for more rounds, then retreat," he wanted to take more ships, as with them he'd create a much bigger fleet, "make sure to aim towards the big ones first, take them into your inventory fast…"
"Don't teach me how to reap my oot," she shouted back, seemingly quite interested in what she was doing. She considered herself a master, didn't know she learnt all this from him in the first place.
The battle continued at such a tempo for long hours. She retreated the moment she smelled danger, and Hye had to endure the heat with his fleet.
Slowly his fleet started to lose many ships, ending up with half of what he had after adding the first batch of loot to his fleet.
