Faith Life of a Former Scammer

182. ghost ship

For a while, I thought I would work as Oren. That’s why he went around reflecting his face here and there in the form of Leon.

However, something unexpected happened.

ghost ship.

Divine power is the best for catching ghosts.

This had no choice but to go outside in the form of Leon. Thanks, I’ve heard of this from others.

“Somehow, I wanted the parish priest to show his face often.”

“Were you ready to leave?”

“Why are you so hard on yourself? It’s a big deal.”

people were worried

The fortunate thing was that everyone had adapted to Leon’s pattern.

“Still, I’m glad you showed your face often before departure.”

“You seem to have recovered, and there seems to be nothing else to worry about. Have a good trip.”

“I will pray that you travel carefully.”

Everyone coolly sent Leone away.

Thanks to that, Leone was able to leave the ghost ship hunting without any problems.

“Take me too! boring!”

“If you can help me, I will be grateful.”

“yes! I’ll help you!”

Besides, the Fairy King also voluntarily attended.

‘If only black is added here, it’s really invincible.’

With that thought in mind, Rion went straight to Black.

I asked the Blade of Dawn for my current location, and I heard surprising news.

“Currently, Black’s location is unknown.”

“I’m sure an agent would have caught up with me?”

Even though the agent was attached, there was only one case where he could not be reached.

“We lost contact with the agent. They probably got swept along.”

I put a person on it, and now I was swept away together. It was really black.

“Probably nothing special will happen to Black or the agent. You don’t have to worry. However, if you get in touch, please tell me right away.”

“All right.”

After that conversation, the agent disappeared into the shadows.

‘If this is the case, I don’t think I’ll get any help from the black side.’

If I just threw black, it would have ended on its own, but it turned out to be a pity.

‘I can’t. I have no choice but to move myself.’

It was a pity if Black wasn’t there, but it wasn’t that there was a problem with work.

Leon went straight to the gate. To the port city of Perna, far from the base of the pirates.

* * *

The port city of Perna.

It was a place that could be said to be almost the exact opposite of the pirates’ base.

Pirates were active in the eastern sea, and Perna was located in the western sea.

Still, the reason I came here was to bring my allies.

As soon as he arrived at the port, Leon rode the marble and flew towards the sea.

After flying for such a long time.

I dipped the ‘proof’ in the sea.

After a while, a splash of water came up and someone came this way.

“friend!”

The speedy one he used every time he went to the dragon palace appeared with a splash of water.

“How are you?”

“then! Really good these days!”

Looking at the brightly grinning swift, it seemed that the queen was ruling it pretty well.

“I want to meet the Queen, is that possible?”

“Of course!”

After that it was always the same.

Clinging to the swift, I headed for the Dragon Palace.

Maybe my skills got better, it seemed like I was much faster than last time.

Thanks to that, I was able to reach Yonggung faster, but the world under the sea had become a different world.

“It has changed so much.”

“right! This is our ‘capital’!”

The magic light glowed in the sea, and the corals also glowed brighter thanks to it.

Moreover, those who used to live in caves were now living in buildings. Numerous buildings were erected in the place where there was only the Dragon Palace.

It was a look that could be described as a ‘capital’.

“In a short time… … great.”

“Queen. It’s a saint! Good sir!”

Seeing that he was called Seonggun, he seemed to be doing his best to live like a snob.

‘Has the clumsy Siren been reborn as a true king?’

Seeing that the pupil was doing well, Leon was also proud.

“Come on, come in. The queen awaits!”

“I know. Thank you for taking me there.”

“yes!”

Like that, Leon entered the inside of the Dragon Palace.

There were various art pieces decorated everywhere.

‘I’m good at luxury and vanity.’

They said he became a real king, but he wasn’t. It seemed that he had become a consummate snob.

As Leon was slowly looking around and going inside, he heard a voice.

“Welcome friends to visit.”

There is no way to express it, just a voice made of beauty.

It was a beauty that could not be compared to when we met before. This was a destructive power that even Leon might be swept away by.

[Gureuk!]

However, Google did not tolerate that.

Misguided. misguided.

Google chewed up the fascination that had entered Leone’s body.

[Rumble!]

As if he was satisfied, he slapped everything into his mouth.

Then, Leon, who was engulfed in fascination, returned to normal.

“It’s an honor to have the Queen come out to meet you.”

When Leon greeted her with a calm expression, her eyes widened.

To say that even a surprised expression could be captivating, she was truly a great queen in many ways.

“I thought I’d grown up quite a bit, too, but it’s not good for Master, is it?”

After confirming that it didn’t work on Leone, the Queen wasn’t disappointed.

Rather, it changed the treatment from ‘friend’ to ‘teacher’ as if that was in a better shape.

“Honestly, I was very surprised. I never thought that growth would be possible.”

“Did you praise me for getting prettier?”

It wasn’t wrong, but she laughed as if it felt good.

[Gureuk-!]

Thanks to that, Google was alone in the mood for a dinner party. He seemed to have noticed that he could eat a full stomach today.

“I’d like to say no, but I can’t deny it.”

I thought it would be difficult for her to become beautiful, but as time passed, she became even more beautiful.

‘Could it be that beauty matures with age?’

Does it get more beautiful here?

This was the problem as it is.

Fortunately, it was her race.

‘It’s fortunate that I was born in the sea.’

If I had been born on the continent, it would have been really terrible.

“You don’t intend to come up to the ground, do you?”

“sure. ‘Be careful and be careful.’ I go there knowing what will happen if I go there for nothing.”

“You haven’t forgotten?”

“sure. I make it my creed in life.”

Besides, it was none other than Leone who taught her. It seemed like there was no need to worry too much.

Now it was time to get to the point.

“I want to ask for help, is it okay?”

“sure. As a friend and teacher, I can provide any help to you.”

“How far did you expand your territory?”

“In terms of land, it has expanded to parts of the West Sea and the South Sea.”

this was a bit disappointing The pirates were active in the East Sea area.

“Is the expansion stopped because of internal affairs? Have you really improved? I was surprised to come.”

“That’s true, but there are other reasons too.”

“Any other reason?”

“Yes. I think this is my limit. As the territory expands, my control becomes weaker and weaker.”

She designated a range that she could completely control, and expanded her territory only to that point.

‘Is greed more important than my life?’

These were the words Leon had told her. She was using what she had learned so diligently.

“Well done.”

At Leon’s praise, she laughed bashfully. Once again, only Google was excited about the pouring fascination.

“So, you didn’t advance to the South Sea or the East Sea at all?”

“That’s not it. Our children are also out in the South Sea and the East Sea. I’m maintaining a moderately good relationship. We are also trading goods for trade.”

At a time when control was already at its limit, they chose exchange rather than greedy for new territories.

It was a good decision.

“It’s not just about interacting.”

“Absolutely. You can think of it as surveillance and exchange.”

Prepare for risks, and skip what you can.

She made all arrangements.

This was beyond expectations.

“There is nothing to complain about. Perfect.”

“really?”

“Yes. Even if I had planned it, it would have been similar. Then, can I talk about my request?”

“yes! As I said before, it’s okay.”

What Leon was asking for was simple.

“Can you borrow the people out on the East Sea for a while?”

It was a pirate ship and Nabal, and in the end, they were the ones fighting on the ship.

However, this one is different. They fight at sea. There was no problem even if there was no boat or in the sea.

Fishmen are the strongest in the sea.

“Is that enough?”

However, it seemed that he thought that Leon’s request was not enough.

“That is enough.”

“I know. Then, I’ll lend you something special. Wait!”

She hurried inside, then came out with a jewel the size of a fist.

It was an unusual looking thing.

“Take it!”

She held out the jewel to Leon.

Leon was not one to refuse giving.

“Then, thank you.”

“The jewel means the representative of the king. You can use it like you would use a friend’s token.”

At those words, Leon’s expression hardened slightly.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes. it’s okay. Master taught me to be suspicious of everyone, but I learned some things myself.”

She understood exactly what Leon meant by asking if he was okay.

“I have already been caught by the back of the neck with trade by my former master. If trade is cut off, my kingdom will collapse.”

It was true. The reason why she was called a saint was because of the huge amount of gold she earned through trade.

It was a safety device created by Leon.

“That’s why Leone should do better. In order to satisfy my self-interest, Leone-nim must not collapse.”

She was a great snob.

He accurately grasped the situation and did what he had to do. That will to support Rion and live like a snob.

“You really learned from whoever taught you.”

“Whoops. He is a very good teacher.”

The two snobs shook hands.

* * *

Leone came out of the Dragon Palace and immediately returned to Perna and used the warp gate to head to the eastern port ‘Suban’.

“Are you here?”

The Dawn’s Blade agent, who had been sent in advance, was waiting in the waterfront.

“Is the report ready?”

“Yes. Here you are.”

he handed out the report.

[Ghost ship report.]

Leone quickly flipped through and confirmed the contents. Every time the report page was turned, Leon’s expression strangely changed.

“… … I’m asking just in case, is this for sure?”

“That’s right. This report is based on the testimony of eyewitnesses.”

Originally, I would never ask such a stupid question, but I couldn’t understand what the ghost ship was doing.

[Ghost ship size: high-end sailing ship]

[Speed: Unusually fast. As a result of the synthesis of testimonies, it is judged that the speed exceeds the speed boat.]

There was nothing wrong with this general report. The problem was that, in general, this was the end.

[Sailor: Not exactly identified. Rumor has it that he kidnaps pirates and turns them into sailors. In fact, there are people who have been released because their crimes are weak.]

‘Abduct the pirates? According to the story of darkness, it seems like they are looting treasure too… … Why a ghost?’

Then I hit more goals.

[Reputation: Very good reputation among port residents. Called a guardian deity that wipes out pirates.]

‘no. What kind of pirates does the ghost ship kill?’

This ghost ship was strange.

A lot of that too!
