At first, Alicia had been enlisting only orcs into her pirate crew to avoid caring about their deaths. But now years later when she saw a group of them being burned to dust, she felt a burst of anger. And in the next moment, she had jumped off the deck of her airship to attack the Mage Knight that had lunged with a reckless burst of fire into the fight over a small seaborne cargo ship.
The burst of violent air that accompanied Alicia joining the fight immediately drew most of the attention into her black and gold uniform that stood out among the almost naked orc pirates. She immediately pointed her runic silver sword at the Mage Knight and the others gave them room.
"Surrender and I might show you some mercy," Alicia voiced with slight distortion on her beautifully sculpted elven face. The Mage Knight that shared her race and blond hair did not even reply as she prepared her runic blade with swirls of fire. She wore simple green and grey travel clothes like she had been traveling in secret.
"Just look around you, you can't win this," Alicia shrugged. The fight had been practically over when the Mage Knight had decided to join it by almost killing a few of her captured crew along with the orcs.
"Captain, take her alive, I will give up my share," one of the orcs exclaimed. It immediately caused the female knight to channel even more energy into her blade before she charged at Alicia.
"Shut up," Alicia flared. She did not even entertain the idea of letting the enemy magic-user get near her. Intense strong swirls of wind manifested around her. They acted like giant snakes and just seeing them caused the assaulting Mage Knight to stop. There was a moment of fear on her elven face and then she jolted to the side of the deck.
Based on the Mage Knight's reaction to a technique that could cut metal, Alicia no longer needed to guess how strong she was. And for a moment the pirate captain almost let the other elf jump into the sea. But as she used the fire element and there were no islands to be seen, Alicia sighed and her swirling air snakes surrounded the Mage Knight with almost gentle air pressure.
In moments the Mage Knight had passed out and Alicia landed her on the deck. One of the orcs immediately rushed to place binds on her. Including one that was able to suppress the power of weaker magic users.
"Captain, can we keep her safely with that?" one of the orcs asked. He was rewarded with a harsh stare from Alicia's cold Azure blue eyes.
"We aren't keeping any of them, once the ship is cleared, they are on their merry way, as we always do," Alicia flared. She gave a stern look around the deck, her crew definitely feared her enough to not even touch the prisoners more than was needed to bind them.
"But she killed my brother... and others," the orc flared even as swirling air tentacles were still snaking around Alicia.
"Captain, one of the crew told me she is some princess, we might get more than fun out of her," another orc exclaimed. For a moment Alicia closed her eyes and she gave a strong stroke to her ponytail with her free hand.
"Fine, but the only fun you will be getting is from a brothel, with the funds she is going to gain us, one way or the other," Alicia voiced. She marched to grab the Mage Knight's shoulder, and in the next moment, the wind tentacles lunged both of them to the deck of the large white swan ship that had just landed into the water with only a bit of hover.
Once on the deck, Alicia headed to drag her captive to the only orc-safe spot on the ship, her own cabin. Though before she reached the sturdy metal door, a large orc blocked her way.
"Captain, we lost five, all killed by her," the orc grunted. Several more were gathering like to give him moral support.
"Slake, my dear Second, you should know by now what I think about mixing business and whores?" Alicia mused while she lifted the Mage Knight up a bit. "And this is business."
"I might have believed that a few years back, but now I think you are just biased towards women, even if you never cry over their dead bodies," Slake shrugged with his big muscular shoulders. Like most of the crew, he only wore grey shorts since Alicia had made it a very clear point she did not want to see any cocks even by accident.
"And what if I am? You going to challenge me?" Alicia said with a tilted smile. She lifted her runic blade like she was planning to end the orc just with one hand.
"Of course not, I just want to ask what is so different from us killing a few humans and having a bit of fun with a prisoner," Slake replied. "The crew been asking me this more and more... and not all shut up just because the Captain said no to it."
"Just send them my way, I can make them shut up for you then," Alicia stated. Slake stepped to a side when she tried to walk through him with a burst of violent air.
"Just something to think about, would make the guys happy," Slake voiced and Alicia just seemingly ignored him. And a moment later she dragged the still unconscious Mage Knight into her cabin after unlocking the door.

Once inside the cabin, Alicia locked the door and dragged the prisoner into a metal closet that had a window with bars. It was designed to hold lesser mages who were not able to deal with the properties of the rune engraved steel. Alicia locked the captive in after wiping some drool from her gagged lips. The Princess looked a bit familiar but even if the pirate captain had seen her before, it hardly mattered now. Her nation was gone and others would just see her as a criminal.
With a sigh, Alicia walked to a large wall-mounted mirror. She gave her black and gold military outfit a visual inspection. It was one of the few things she had from the time before her nation had fallen, a time before her current career. And the only reason she wore it was that she had been collecting many spares in the aftermath as they had been common goods on the markets for some time.
"How dare those green creatures to ask to use an elf... for their pleasure," Alicia voiced. "There is no way they won't, desire to do that to me."
"Filthy, disgusting, green brutes enslaved by carnal desires like beasts," Alicia muttered while her hands undid the lower buttons on her jacket that did little to hide the perky shape of her breasts. Then she lifted her undershirt to show an elegant purple text that was written on her lower stomach "Angel of perversion."
"I feel nothing when I look at them, this cursed mark is not my master," Alicia stated while her fingers dug into the slightly unnatural-looking purple letters. They dug hard enough to distort the skin of her firm athletic stomach.
"But I better sate them before they lose themselves to their lust, it would be a shame if I would need to kill them all if they lose control," Alicia voiced with an increasingly tilted smile. She gave one last punishing grip to her stomach before she hid her belly again.
