CH 69

Thomas Meyer looked at the newly engraved map in blood. He nodded his head, looking intently as if he was not going to miss anything.

“After all, it’s the Bladewind Islands. It doesn’t make sense if it’s not there.”

As he mumbled that, Irene frowned slightly and asked.

“The Bladewind Isles? That Island of hell?”

“It’s a huge treasure. It should be that much if you want to hide all of that for hundreds of years.”

While Irene and Thomas Meyer talked about maps, Delfino treated the young man’s hand.

“Are you okay?”

“Oh, yes. Priest.”

“Just call me Delfino.”

“Yes, Priest Delfino. My name is Kyle.”

“Kyle Meyer?”

“Yes? Oh, um, yes. It is.”

The cut on the palm was healed in an instant by Delfino’s divine power. After wiping off the blood, he was fine, as if he had never had a wound.

And the Ferocious Tooth that watched it silently let out a low breath. The Lizardmen’s language was suitable for secret conversations, as few people except them even noticed that it was a language.

“It’s strange.”

“What?”

“They seem to have a lot to hide.”

“There aren’t many people who live with everything exposed.”

Even though he responded like that, Ivan could not dispel his doubts. It was because he felt something was out of place.

It’s not surprising that the map was genuine. For God to be interested, that has to be the case. And even if the map was genuine, it was another matter of whether there was actually a treasure there or whether it was useful.

The problem was that there was a strange sense of incompatibility in Thomas Meyer himself. Is he really a trustworthy person?

“There are no dents on the floor for walking with a cane. Although he may not have a very strong body, the movement of his muscles makes it seem like he doesn’t need a cane?”

tuk tuk.

As Ivan drank his tea, he shook his leg as if it was just a habit. And through the magic he spread, hitting the floor with his heel, he realized there was a basement.

“The basement is too big for the size of this house from the outside. What did you find out?”

At those words, Ferocious Tooth twitched his nose.

Shaaaa.

The sound of waves crashing. The salty wind and the smell of the sea filled the air.

The party is now located in Gaspin, the most famous port city in the Western Union Kingdom. A place where numerous trade ships come and go and various cultures coexist.

Hairy demihuman, humans, and lizardmen were mixed, and surprisingly, orcs and goblins also appeared occasionally.

In the east of the continent, the human was fighting a very fierce battle with Greenskins, but the west was not yet like that. In fact, there were quite a few orcs and goblins who did not join the Blood Alliance.

While Ivan was looking at those people, he was looking at the sea ferociously. All he could see from far away was water. It was such a touching scene.

“This is the sea!”

“Yeah, the sea. Dirty salty and lots of water.”

“I come to the sea!”

Ferocious Tooth looked like they wanted to dive into the sea, but there was no time for that. Because the promised time is almost over.

There was a boat for the party to board in the corner of the harbor with a few people.

Thomas Meyer welcomed the party in front of him.

“Come here. What do you think?”

His face was full of confidence. It was not the face of an old man whose impression had been blurred before. His eyes were full of power.

“It’s good. You prepared a bigger boat than I thought.”

“Because if it’s not this big, we can’t break through those rough waves.”

“You prepared it in such a short time.”

“Ho ho, of course. I put some effort into it.”

The Bladewind Isles were surrounded by rough seas, stormy all year round. If you miss the quiet time these days, you have to wait for at least several months while sucking your fingers.

For those months, Thomas Meyer couldn’t wait. He really moved as if he had regained his youth. It was all thanks to his efforts that they were ready for departure in just a few days.

“I don’t know where you got the map, but speed is important in this kind of thing. If the story leaks somewhere, bugs will attach themselves.”

Having said that, Thomas Meyer looked around with sharp eyes and jumped into the boat.

“Kyle! Move quickly!”

Thomas Meyer shouted and rushed the crew. It seemed that his youthful appearance was revived again.
