Reborn as a Space Mercenary: I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship! (Novel) Vol. 07

PRINCESS PROBLEMS

After their showstopping defeat of the crystal life-forms, Hiro and the gang head to the imperial capital for Hiro’s award ceremony. No shortage of trouble awaits them in the heart of the empire, from Elma’s overly affectionate brother crashing the party, to a reunion with Chris, to the emperor liking Hiro a little too much. Just when the crew thinks they’ve seen it all, they learn that the imperial princess…is the spitting image of Mimi?!

Series Overview: When Satou Takahiro is swept away from his ordinary life into the world of his favorite video game, a universe of space battles, interstellar colonies, and danger in the vastness of outer space awaits. Soon, he’s living as “Hiro” the mercenary, with a tricked-out spaceship and a babe on each arm! There are space pirates to fight, girls to rescue, and trouble to get into (and hopefully out of). Hiro is going to live his new life to the fullest!
