I don't want to be an elf!

As if touched by her words, Nephren couldn't help but imagine her future.

However, aside from staying in the Fourth Fairy Warehouse, she couldn't imagine what her future would be like if William and Yatogami Tohka really succeeded.

The Golden Fairy doesn't think about its future.

Because they will not have a future.

From birth to death, they were only allowed to live on a small island and had almost no knowledge of the outside world.

Even if one day their situation could improve, and they could gain the same freedom as other races, as Yatogami Tohka said, she wouldn't know what she should do.

Her only skill is fighting.

I don't have many hobbies; I usually just read novels to pass the time.

However, looking at Tohka Yatogami in front of him, an idea he had never had before surfaced in his mind.

"Perhaps I could become a chef."

“Oh! That sounds great!” Yatogami Tohka chimed in. “Ren definitely has a talent for cooking! I’m sure of it!”

"I've heard that some floating islands have unique delicacies. If one day the Golden Fairy can travel freely to different places, I can hone my cooking skills and learn all kinds of dishes."

"Shall we embark on a journey?"

"Yes, let's embark on a journey."

Nephren turned her head and tucked the hair from her cheek behind her ear.

The image of Tohka Yatogami was reflected in those purple eyes that seemed to be blessed by the starry sky.

"Would you like to come with me then?"

Upon hearing the girl's invitation, Yatogami Tohka was taken aback.

Don't know how to answer.

The day the Golden Fairy is truly liberated may also be the day she leaves this world.

As a passerby in this world, even if she wanted to spend more time with Nephren, she couldn't.

But seeing that Nephren was unusually interested, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.

"Yes, let's travel together then."

After a moment's hesitation, she nodded and said with a smile.

"This is our agreement."

Chapter Twenty-Four: Famine Arrives

the next morning.

Although they had rested for a night on the rocking airship, Chtholly and Esya still got up on time.

For those experiencing a floating ship for the first time, the first night might be a little difficult to adjust to, but these women are already veterans who have ridden in floating warships many times, and they are used to the slight turbulence.

After washing up, the two arrived at the room of Nephren and Yatogami Tohka.

It will take three days to reach the fifteenth floating island. One day has already passed yesterday, which means they need to teach Yatogami Tohka the knowledge needed on the battlefield in the remaining two days.

This is no easy task.

So after getting up, they went straight to Nephren and Yatogami Tohka's room.

"Knock knock knock."

I knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.

However, Nephren, who should have been ready long ago, even earlier than them, did not come out to open it immediately today.

"Tohka — Nephren —"

As Aiseya knocked on the dormitory door, she shouted, "The sun's high in the sky! Time to get up!"

After a while, the sound of getting out of bed and the soft rustling of clothes could be heard from the dormitory.

About five minutes later, the dormitory door was opened.

Then, Chtholly and Esther saw two listless, yawning girls appear before them.

Nephren wasn't even properly dressed at the moment; the shoulder strap of her dress had slipped down, revealing her shoulders.

Her hair was also a mess, and it was clear that she had only managed to tie it into pigtails; it wasn't as smooth as it used to be.

As for Yatogami Tohka?

This guy's clothes were all conjured up, so she actually looked better than Nephren.

However, it is even more tiring than Nephro.

Seeing the two who were clearly still half asleep, Athena covered her mouth in surprise and asked, "What did you two do last night? You look like you stayed up all night?"

“Tohka moves around too much when she sleeps.” Nephren rubbed her sleepy eyes. “Every time I just start to feel sleepy, Tohka wakes me up.”

"Sorry..." Yatogami Tohka scratched the back of her head sheepishly, "It's my first time sleeping on a ship, I'm not quite used to it."

Last night, after going out for a walk to clear their heads, the two of them went back to their dormitory from the deck to rest.

However, the turbulence at night made Tohka Yatogami, who had never been on a boat before, especially a floating one, very uncomfortable.

This also directly affected Nephren, who was sleeping next to her, causing neither of them to get a good night's sleep.

"Haha, this is what it's like to sleep on an airship for the first time," Athena said with a grin. "I only gradually got used to it after riding it several times. But you won't have time to rest later, so don't forget you still have to study today."

"I only studied for one day yesterday, why do I have to study again!" Tohka Yatogami immediately showed a pained expression. "I don't want this kind of thing!"

Seeing Yatogami Tohka covering her ears and clearly not wanting to study, the three Gold Fairies all looked somewhat helpless.

Although they knew that Yatogami Tohka was incredibly strong, possessing power comparable to a Gold Fairy who could open the Fairy Corridor in her normal state, it was extremely dangerous to recklessly charge around on a chaotic battlefield.

Without the necessary knowledge for the battlefield, it is easy to fall into danger.

"Then let's start today's study a little later."

After checking the time, Chtholly decided, "Let's go have breakfast before reviewing yesterday's material."

"Yes! I agree!"

Upon hearing that they could go eat breakfast first, Tohka Yatogami smiled and said, "You need to be full to have the energy to study! Let's all go to the cafeteria!"

Although, due to apartheid, their meals used to be delivered to their rooms by others.

However, Tohka Yatogami doesn't care about racial segregation laws, and her appetite is too big; the food sent to her room is simply not enough for her.

So, for the past three days, she has been eating in the cafeteria.

Worried about what might happen to her alone, the other three had no choice but to follow her, and for the first time, they ate all their meals in the cafeteria.

Once I started, I wasn't so resistant anymore.

After Tohka Yatogami and Nephren finished washing up, the four of them headed to the cafeteria.

When the four figures appeared in the canteen, the orc warriors who were leisurely eating breakfast there all turned their gazes toward them.

More precisely, the moment Yatogami Tohka appeared in the cafeteria, the cheerful atmosphere there immediately underwent a complete 180-degree change.

The orc warriors who were eating, whether they were herbivores or carnivores, and regardless of their appetite, all stood up with their plates in hand.

Even though there was no commander around to give orders, they surrounded the food pick-up lane like battle-hardened soldiers.

Some were chatting leisurely, some were eating while playing chess, and others were almost finished eating. The moment Yatogami Tohka appeared, they all rushed to the food pick-up area to grab as much food as possible.

"Hey you guys in front, hurry up and grab it! That glutton is here again today!"

"Damn it! Who stole the food from my plate?!"

"What are you doing, a herbivorous beastman, stealing meat? Let go of me!"

The orc warriors in the canteen were pushing and shoving each other, turning the once peaceful canteen into a chaotic battlefield.

In order to get enough to eat, they turned into real wild animals, only caring about piling food onto their plates.

One tiger and one lion even bared their fangs at each other in a fight over the last plate of meat.

In the kitchen, the warship's chef, witnessing this unprecedented scene, showed no surprise whatsoever. He simply shook his head with a wry smile and sped up his cooking.

After all, these soldiers haven't had enough to eat since yesterday.

Breakfast was devoured by Tohka Yatogami, who suddenly appeared.

They finally made it to lunchtime, but since they had eaten so much Yatogami Tohka for breakfast, they thought they would eat very little for lunch, so they didn't pay much attention.

It wasn't until they arrived at the canteen and found only a few vegetable leaves and insect eggs, which were the insect race's favorite food, that they realized their flying warship had welcomed an extraordinary glutton.

So the orc warriors were left starving until dinner.

The head chef and several assistant cooks noticed that everyone was not full, so they worked hard to cook and prepare dinner, barely managing to feed the orc warriors on the ship until they were half full.

The warship was small to begin with; even including the Golden Fairies, it only carried a maximum of fifty people. However, Tohka Yatogami alone could eat the equivalent of more than twenty people's worth of food, which naturally led to many people on board going hungry.

Moreover, they never expected that the Golden Fairy, who used to stay indoors and almost always stayed in her room from boarding to disembarking, would actually appear in the canteen and eat with them.

The news of the gluttonous golden fairy spread throughout the entire warship on the first night, causing many orc warriors to fall asleep hungry.

At the same time, it's also to conserve energy for tomorrow's food hunt.

Now that the culprit that kept them hungry from morning till night has appeared, their first reaction is not to cause trouble, but to snatch the food.

Instead of wasting time looking for trouble, you'd be better off filling your stomach and getting far away from that food-devouring demon!

The commotion subsided quickly.

Everyone's plates were piled high with food, fearing they might go hungry all day.

The food pick-up lane became clear, and the four of them finally had the chance to eat breakfast.

However, after being plundered by the orc warriors, there was almost no food left in the food collection passage.

The only thing left was the sticky insect eggs that reptilian orc warriors liked.

But even Yatogami Tohka wouldn't eat this stuff.

After some searching, the three golden fairies, who had relatively small appetites, managed to gather enough food for breakfast.

As for Yatogami Tohka?
