If you have a model from Late-2011 or later:
Internet/Network Recovery of El Capitan or Later on a Clean Disk

I'm sorry but you need to be clearer and provide some detail. I don't know what you did. Why were you choosing a startup disk? What bootable USB?
Please read Writing an effective Apple Support Communities question. We are here to help. We are all users. We are not mind-readers nor clairvoyants. We only know what you write down and tell us. Be specific and thorough. Include your hardware information and installed version of macOS. Try to write clearly. Think about what you want to say before you write it down, then re-read it to see if it makes sense.
I think I need to know your exact Mac model. To find the complete model information select About This Mac from the Apple menu. You can create a snapshot of the dialog as follows:
How to take a screenshot on your Mac
Capture, Save or Record Screenshots in Mac OS X - Help Desk Geek
OS X Screen Capture Shortcuts
(⌘⬆︎3) Command-Shift-3 Capture the screen to a file
(⌘⬆︎⌃3) Command-Shift-Control-3 Capture the screen to the Clipboard
(⌘⬆︎4) Command-Shift-4 Capture a selection to a file
(⌘⬆︎⌃4) Command-Shift-Control-4 Capture a selection to the Clipboard
(⌘⬆︎5) Command-Shift-5 Invoke new screen grabber
You can then post the image in the forum's message editor.
Macs prior to Late-2011 cannot do an Internet Recovery. If you completely erased your disk, then you also erased the Recovery HD. If you only erased the startup volume, usually called Macintosh HD, the Recovery HD may still be intact. Your OS can be restored using Recovery Mode - restarting with Command-R. If you cannot use Recovery Mode, then your only other options are Internet Recovery, if your model supports it, or restore from external bootable media such as the DVD that came with the computer or a bootable USB flash drive. So, I need to know more about what we are dealing with in terms of your hardware and version of macOS that was installed before you erase the disk. I assume that was 10.13.6 High Sierra.
Did your MBA come with a recovery USB stick? If it did, then use that to restore the factory system. If it came with Software Restore DVDs, then you need a USB optical drive to restore the factory system. You can upgrade from there.
The only other alternative, I believe, is the following:
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
a bootable usb flash drive is an external hard drive or optical disk that is created with a computer operating system and can be used to boot a desktop computer or laptop instead of the windows installation dvd. I factoring restart my MacBook air (Newest compatible operating system: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6). So I accidentally deleted my Macintosh HD while trying to reformat the drive (since the disk couldn't be repaired, I had to reformat and then restore it.) But erasing the content of the disk caused the OS to be deleted, so now I can only boot up through the Recovery HD. You think I have to reinstalling a new operating system though bootable USB?
