123 – Necessity disguised as coincidence

Nothing happened. I’m going to make it that way.

The moment she heard those words, the princess once again felt her heart beating wildly.

Is this coming out of fear? Or does it come from excitement?

My muscles are pulled tight by the dangerous momentum I feel from the man in front of me.

Your instinct will tell you to run away or get ready to fight.

At the same time, in a corner, another instinct continues to lick his lips.

What a man. How strong! But, how interesting is this!

I want to own it. If I can’t, I want to be possessed!

‘Ah… Should I just attack?’

It’s good if you jump on it and get on it, or vice versa.

I’m going crazy wanting to leave a trace no matter what or how.

“The Princess.”

When even her mind goes into confusion, Kyle, sitting in front of her, quietly calls her.

A look that seems to know what you’re thinking.

The feeling of not blushing each other because of useless things is conveyed intact.

Thanks to that, Julika was finally able to shake off her dangerous thoughts.

There is Hwangmyeong, but she is afraid that Kyle will further distance herself from her.

“… Nothing happened. What does that mean?”

Trying to suppress her instincts, she asked back what Kyle said earlier.

I have a rough idea, but I thought it would be nice to hear a definite answer.

“Literally. Independent lords remain independent lords. There was no sudden castaway of the Union. That’s it.”

At Kyle’s words, Julika smiled deeply.

To remain as an independent lord means to refrain from killing as much as possible.

And the fact that there were no castaways meant that they would capture them all and send them to the Empire.

A hardliner of the coalition. The Empire won’t let them go until the moment they die.

Imperial is good because it removes dangerous molecules, and Jon Nassen is good because he can erase all traces of drugs.

If there are few killings there, public sentiment in the south won’t be too bad.

On the contrary, you can feel the overwhelming gap with the empire and think differently.

“You know what? That island is Pardal Island. The one who received the castaways is the lord of Pardal Island.”

“Yes. I know it thanks to someone who gave me the information.”

Pardal Island. The place where the royal family of one of the southern kingdoms defeated by the Empire fled.

This is where he settled and spent hundreds of years as a lord.

Inevitably, it has a strained relationship with the Empire.

Should I say that even though it’s not a complete enemy country, I can’t look at it with a smile hahahaha.

Now it was the center of the anti-imperial independent lords.

“I will be careful. It will never lead to war.”

“Okay. Did you know that under him there is a strong man who can compete with our top 10?”

What? That’s another piece of information I’ve heard of for the first time.

No, Mr. Elga. What if I forgot this important part?

I almost missed it after all I had to do was get things done. It’s sad to say

“I am Arcane. I used to be a pirate, but for some reason I joined the lord of Pardal Island. Rumor has it that he wields a wave-raising sword? His second name is also a wave catcher.”

“A sword with waves? Are you using some kind of magic?”

“I don’t know the details. Rumors abound.”

It’s a sword from which waves crash. Wow, it’s really not scary at all.

If you can’t do it, shouldn’t you say that a tsunami or a glacier is coming?

What are you going to do with the waves? In John Nassen, it is said that all water is the same.

“You’re going to run into that wave catcher. Kyle.”

“It must be fun. To be honest, I was worried that it would be too boring, but now my heart is pounding.”

If someone who did not know the situation saw it, they would have laughed.

A young man in his early twenties is ignorant of the fear of the world and is acting out.

They look down on the swordsman who is the best among independent lords in the south.

“Hmm. I hope you can. I hope the wavecatcher doesn’t break prematurely.”

But on the other hand, Yulica was worried about catching waves.

I know because she has already bumped into Kyle several times.

Whether your opponent is a wave catcher or another strong player, Kyle will win in the end.

“Tell me if you need anything. There was an imperial order to support anything.”

“Hmm. I do not know. I can’t remember anything.”

“You don’t need anything? Kyle. Pardal Island is quite far from the southern port. I know?”

“I heard that it is not close.”

The princess slightly frowned at Kyle’s answer.

Then she beckons one of the agents from the Ministry of Special Affairs to explain what she knows.

“Well, as far as I know, it takes more than half a day even if you take a high-speed boat from the southern port, spread the sails wide in the favorable wind, and sail under calm waves.”

“Did you hear? This is the distance it takes. It’s hard if it’s not a good speedboat.”

Even if it is one of the top 10 empires, there is nothing you can do in front of nature.

You cannot part the sea. To cross the open sea, you must take a boat.

It is a place that would take more than half a day even if the conditions were optimal.

“According to the emperor’s order, ships can be requisitioned. One speedboat will soon….”

“Thank you for your heart, but I don’t need a boat. Princess.”

However, the opponent was a person from a world that rejected even the obvious.

“Ah. Can I ask for something other than a boat?”

“… What?”

“I would like you to find some exercise equipment and fill it in the gymnasium behind the villa.”

“You won’t be gone in two weeks anyway, right?”

“Even if you go after two days instead of two weeks, you still have to exercise. If you don’t, I’m afraid.”

“….”

The princess, who was silent for a moment, eventually nodded her head.

Ignoring the knights and agents who stared at her asking what an absurd request this is.

“Other than that, really nothing? Can I not get on the boat?”

“Yes. I’ll figure it out. Now that this has happened, I should finish it today.”

You won’t be around for a day, so make some excuses for that.

Kyle, who entrusted the princess with her behind-the-scenes work, warmed up her body with pleasure.

Catch the roiders and kick them, and even the strong man chews, bites, tastes, and enjoys.

This is eating pheasants and eating eggs. Killing two birds with one stone!

*

In the southern part of the continent, countless islands are scattered everywhere.

Some areas can be reached after a short swim, while others barely reach the horizon.

For that reason, there are ferry lines and traffic lines for each island.

Especially, the traffic line is a very important means of transportation as it has a similar concept to a wagon that runs on land.

The captain of one of the ships, the Running Sheep, alternately looks at the sky and the sea.

“The wind is nice. The waves are calm too. The sea god seems to be in a good mood today.”

“That’s right. The storm was very strong just a few days ago.”

“This way, we will get there in time. You will win.”

“Ahahahaha! Thanks to you, I’ll win some money!”

At the sailor’s words, the captain chuckled and added to buy me a drink.

If you go to the opposite island anyway, today’s flight is over.

There’s nothing wrong with drinking a little and spending the day.

‘Tomorrow is Pardal Island.’

Many islands in the south, independent lords who rule the islands.

Among them, Pardal Island is the largest and the most prosperous.

They say that once you go in, you don’t want to leave, but these are not empty words.

‘I went in last time and really didn’t want to come out.’

A sailor should not long for the land, not the sea.

Once you taste the sweet land life, you can’t stop.

The captain was looking at the sea while thinking about this and that.

Then he sighed, “Huh?” And then hurriedly rubbed his eyes.

A person was swimming in the exact opposite direction from the passage line.

I wanted to see a mirage, but that’s absolutely not the case.

A mirage like that couldn’t exist in the first place!

“A castaway! Found the castaway!”

When the captain shouted, the crew stopped what they were doing and looked at the sea.

Rescuing the shipwrecked is a natural duty. It was like that a long time ago.

Whoever the opponent is, the first thing to do is to rescue them from that blue hell.

Chack! Cheak!-

Even though the ship was approaching, the castaway did not stop.

It seemed very pitiful to swim to survive somehow.

“Here! Here it is! Hey!”

It is dangerous to attach more boats than this for safety reasons.

For this reason, the shipwrecked man responds only when the captain shouts with all his might.

“What?”

However, the reaction that came back could not be said to be that of a castaway.

Rather, the frown seems to be why he is holding on to a person who has been going well.

Unfortunately, for a captain who doesn’t know that expression or voice.

“I will throw the rope now! Hold on tight! I will pull you!”

I just tried to rescue the shipwrecked with all my might in an urgent voice.

Choak-.

“Ugh! Line! Grab the rope! What are you doing now….”

A shipwrecked man approaches the ship without holding a line to catch him.

When he reached the point where he could barely see the captain’s face, he opened his mouth.

“Excuse me. Is Pardal Island this way?”

“… Yes?”

“If you go this way, you will find Pardal Island.”

It should come out. Keep going this way. The problem is that “All the way” Is one hour.

This is not a shallow sea to swim in. It is in the middle of a very deep sea.

No matter what you do, you can never go swimming!

“We are coming to Pardal Island. Come out, come out at once! What were you thinking doing that at sea! I’ll find out the ship to Pardal Island, so hold the line first!”

“Ah. It’s okay, so go on your way. Thank you. I was a little worried if I went right.”

Then the castaway turns around and swims through the sea. No, a young man.

The captain, as well as the crew and passengers, are at a loss for words at the unimaginable sight.

What kind of crazy person would think of swimming in this sea?

“What, what is it? Captain? What did we see?”

“… Me too, i don’t know Did you see anything in vain?”

Those who look at the young man who is getting farther and farther away with a bewildered gaze.

‘… But, how did it get so far already?’

Obviously, the young man right in front of him turned into a small dot before he knew it and then disappeared.

Their ship slowed down to rescue the young man.

And I was getting ready to start again, but how did the distance widen?

‘Oh, how fast?’

I don’t know if I can really reach my destination with that much.

Could it be the eccentricity of a young man taking on a challenge?

The captain thought that he would ask when he arrived at Pardal Island tomorrow.
