I grabbed the man Nier hung at the front of the ship. Enraged, I exclaid, I still cant see the ship. I suspect youre lying to . As that is the case, Ill throw you down!
Dont! Dont! Dont!! Its because its too dark! Its because its too dark! You just cant see it, because its too dark! That ship is definitely here! Its unmistakably here! Trust ! Trust !! Give so more ti! Give so more ti! We should see it very soon! We should see it very soon!
I checked out our dark surroundings. The waves around us had gradually cald down. The closer we got to my moms, the calr the storm was. Although the clouds still lood, the wild whistling winds and violent waves had cald down. There was no more water splashing, and the unsteady water surface had cald down a lot. In saying that, we couldnt see far into the distance due to the darkness. As a matter of fact, I couldnt tell if I was looking at the sea or sky.
All that was left was the sound of us sailing through the water. The silence around us freaked out. It really was dead silent around us. Other than the sound of footsteps on timber, there was no other sound. Perhaps we werent willing to speak and purely wanted to stay close by, because of the sudden silence.
I asked the commander I captured, Are you positive this is the right direction?
Yes, yes. It is this direction. I guarantee it was this direction. There are no obstacles on the water, either. We just need to keep heading forward. We just need to keep heading forward.
Yeah?
I released him and let him continue to hang there. I then looked to the sky. There was no light in the sky; I couldnt even tell how thick the clouds were. I took out a remaining bottle of the mana dissolving potion, and then took Lucias dagger to make a small hole on top. I then poured it onto his neck: See this? If I still dont see the ship by the ti this bottle is empty, then Ill throw you down there, understood?
Dont dont do this! Dont do this!! Dont do this!
You said well reach them it we continue forward, so you dont need to worry.
I turned around. I was serious. If I didnt see the ship by the ti the bottle was empty, Id speculate I was tricked. If I was tricked, I wouldve gone a long way in a wrong direction, which ant I didnt know when Id see my moms. By then, Id be in a foul mood. Nier and Lucia would kill him, and I most certainly wouldnt stop them. In that case, why not just throw him into the ocean already?
Your Majesty! Theres a ship! Theres a ship! We see it! We see a ship the sa as ours! Indeed, it is that ship! Its that ship!
I swiftly turned around and listened to the shouting from the watchtower. I looked in the direction they pointed. I didnt see anything but darkness. I couldnt see any shadows in the darkness. Maybe this ship had been enshrouded in darkness after entering the darkness. Perhaps it was because I wasnt standing up high.
Are you sure?! I asked.
I am! Can you see it? It is indeed our ship! I can see the twin-headed eagle!
I finally saw the twin-headed eagle, too. I didnt know if my moms deliberately lit it up or not, but I saw a burning twin-headed eagle! The twin-headed eagle was ablaze. The fla was as if a blade had cut through the darkness and left a light behind. The darkness highlighted burning twin-headed eagle.
Yes! I exclaid, firmly hamring the rail in front of , and then turning to head to the rear.
I suddenly heard painful cries from behind. Nier drew her sword, So, Your Majesty, shall I throw this guy into the water? Hes now useless.
Forget it. I promised him to spare him, so lets pull him up.
I turned around and went to the bow where the commander was suspended. He trembled as he watched approach. He then loudly shouted, See that? I didnt lie to you! I didnt lie to you! Hurry and pull up! Hurry and pull up! Hurry and pull up!! Hurry!
All right. Now, shut up.
I walked up to the rope behind him. I was now in a good mood again. We didnt waste ti and miss out on the battle with the wyrm despite being stuck on the water without any clues. It appeared they they were still battling the wyrm. Unfortunately, I couldnt see the wyrms silhouette from my location. The flas enveloping the twin-headed eagle didnt sway. I pondered, Could it be that the wyrm isnt there, or have they defeated it? Maybe the storm stopped, because it was slain. Therefore, it could be over now.
That was human nature. Once we calm down, wed think optimistically. Even if we encountered all sorts of unfortunate events and had all sorts of distressing thoughts prior, wed beco particularly optimistic at these sorts of tis.
I said, Forget it. Ill release you when you reach that ship. Youre not going to die, anyway.
I tried to undo the ropes, but I couldnt. I didnt know what thod Nier used to tie him up, but it was beyond ; as a consequence, I gave up. Hell be fine once we reach our destination, anyway.
We raised all of our fire torches in hopes the other ship could see us. The alight twin-headed eagle seed to be approaching us, as well. Wed be safer with our ships together. We wont be singled out by the wyrm that way. After all, only Mommy Vyvyan is the only person on their ship who could combat it.
Dont do this!! Hurry and release ! I beg you! I told you! I told you already, and I was telling the truth! Hurry and release !! Hurry and release ! pleaded the commander.
Did I not just tell you that Id release you once we reach our destination? I brayed.
Annoyed, I turned back to continue looking in the direction of the twin-headed eagle. I waited for our ships to et. We were approaching each other at a decent pace. Soon enough, we saw the contour of the ship and supposedly a green silhouette at the forefront. That was Mommy Vyvyans dress.
The wyrm was probably just a toy before Mommy Vyvyan on a full-moon night.
Our ships gradually closed in. Mommy Vyvyan saw , too. She waved at . In response, I leaned over and excitedly shouted to her.
Suddenly, Nier gave my cape an aggressive tug from behind, pulling down onto the deck. A ginormous silhouette jumped up before right when I fell backwards. A huge dragon leapt out of the water similarly to a huge stone pillar splitting the ocean apart. Its ergence destroyed our sturdy bow and the creature took the man hanging there. I sweat cold bullets due to the fright. Had Nier not yanked back, Id have most probably been swallowed whole.
I wasnt paying attention to my front view, though. anwhile, the ginormous beast let out a despairing howl and squird in the air. I looked in its direction; I recalled the man had the mana dissolving potion on him. The wyrm wanted to attack , but it ended up eating the man with the mana dissolving potion on him. In other words, the ginormous creature that was created from mana ate the mana dissolving potion!!!
