“You are right. I am amazing.”

Raon responded as Archie let out a dig that actually sounded more like a compliment.

“Crazy.”

Naturally, the ship was damaged significantly.

However, it wasn’t completely destroyed.

“That swordsman is pretty strong.”

Raon’s assessment was spot on. The swordsman was amazing. She was able to send out another boomerang shaped golden aura which destroyed more of Raon’s mana arrows.

There were still enough to pretty much destroy the ship though.

“Ugh, ugh!”

Redika’s body was shaking. Choi Han quietly observed the now-armless mage.

“I guess he’ll die.”

Cale was observing Redika, who was nearing the end of his mana explosion. He assumed Choi Han would not do anything else since Redika would soon die.

“Aaaah!”

But he was wrong.

Spurt!

Blood splattered everywhere.

Choi Han had swung his sword one more time at Redika’s right eye. Cale turned away as he didn’t want to see that sight. However, he was now looking at the ship that was continuing to crumble.

Boom.

The ship was breaking apart, starting from the bow. However, Cale clicked his tongue while watching the destruction.

“There was another one left, as I expected.”

At the same time, Cale was shocked.

“He was a magic spearman.”

“Human, you didn’t know?”

“Yeah, I didn’t.”

“I see.”

A magic spearman was someone who used both magic and spears. Although the spearman was not at the spearmaster-level, he could use magic. The spearman, who had not been using magic very much while he had been on the island, flew over using levitation magic to save just one person.

Only the blonde swordsman flew up from the rubbles of the ship.

“Aaaaaaah!”

“Please save us too!”

The members of the organization who were still alive shouted toward the spearman, but the spearman did not even turn to look at them.

He just looked toward Redika.

“Pretty strong.”

Cale could feel the strength of the secret organization.

If this magic spearman can use levitation magic on two people, he was at least at the upper middle-tier mage level. He was both an upper middle-tier mage and a spearman who was close to reaching the spearmaster level.

“Do not worry. He is still weaker than Choi Han.”

“I know. It’s just that he is stronger than me.”

Silence suddenly filled the area. Raon finally started to speak after a while.

“Stronger than you, mm, it is kind of obvious that, mm, there are many people stronger than you. So do not be too upset.”

Cale wanted to say something back to Raon, but could not do so.

Bang!

“...Scary.”Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

A golden aura hit Redika’s body, which exploded on impact. Cale could see Choi Han retreating on a whale while sending out an attack with his black aura.

However, it did not reach the magic spearman and swordsman in the air.

A frowning Choi Han tried to swing his sword one more time as Rosalyn slowly floated up into the air. The two of them peeked toward Cale, but could not call out to him. The silence continued, no, the screams of the people on the burning boat continued.

Rosalyn and Choi Han were ready to attack the magic spearman and blonde swordsman at any moment.

It was at that moment.

Splash-

They could hear water splashing. Witira, as well as some of the Whale tribe members, were swimming their way.

“How disappointing.”

“That’s why I said we should just run.”

The spearman sounded annoyed as he responded to the swordsman. He then looked toward Choi Han, Rosalyn, and the Wolf children. They were all still wearing masks.

“I can’t tell who they are.”

“Maybe you’ll find out if we fight some more.”

The spearman saw the blue mana swirling on top of Rosalyn’s palm and shook his head.

“It’ll be a draw at best.”

Flick! Bang!

The large blue whip landed on the water. At the same time, Witira used the recoil of the whip to jump into the air. The spearman summoned a five-colored magic scroll that made Rosalyn certain it was covered in highest-grade Magic Stone powder.

“No!”

Rosalyn followed Witira and headed for the two enemies. Choi Han’s black aura also shot toward them like a bullet.

However, the spearman ripped the scroll in half before their attacks could reach them and both he and the swordmaster-level swordsman started to turn transparent. It was a long distance teleportation scroll. The blonde woman frowned as she parried Choi Han’s aura with her own aura. A small explosion occurred, and she used that moment to wave toward Choi Han and Rosalyn.

“Bye-bye, anonymous people.”

She then looked toward the angry-looking Witira and started to smile.

It made sense why the mermaids would hate the Whale tribe that ruled the ocean under the name of peace.

But there were always two sides to a story.

‘Not my problem.’

Cale was someone who only moved based on what benefit he could gain from each situation. Thinking about this would not benefit him, so there was no point in thinking about it.

“Then I am going to go now. We are in a bit of a hurry.”

They needed to quickly heal Ron now that they had the necessary ingredient.

Cale arrived at Hais Island 1 and quickly entered the tent.

“Ron.”

“Young master-nim.”

Beacrox stood up and looked toward Cale. He saw Choi Han and Hilsman coming in with the mermaid corpse and closed his mouth.

Ron was sleeping. The assassin was not aware that people had arrived.

Sigh.

A deep sigh came out of Cale’s mouth. A pile of highest-grade potions was sitting next to Ron’s bed.

“Beacrox, remove the covers.”

“Yes sir.”

“Can you lend me a glove?”

Beacrox, who was removing the blanket, suddenly flinched. He started to speak without looking at Cale.

“...Are you going to personally do it?”

Beacrox quietly observed his father’s face as he recalled what his father had told him. Ron had told Beacrox how strong the organization, ‘Arm,’ was every time he was awake.

He heard Cale’s confident response at that time.

“Yes, I will do it.”

Beacrox took a white glove out of his pocket and handed it to Cale. Cale put it on and inspected Ron’s infected areas. The poison seemed to have settled down a bit after being doused in highest-grade potions.

Cale motioned to Choi Han, who quickly brought the mermaid corpse over. The corpse cast a shadow over Ron’s body as Cale took out a dagger and cut open the mermaid royalty’s corpse.

Drip, drip.

The mermaid’s blood started to drip one to two drops at a time before spurting out. Cale guided the corpse to make sure that the blood landed on Ron’s sides and thigh. He then cut the corpse in other places as well in order to hit all of the infected areas.

“Beacrox, pour a highest-grade potion.”

“Yes sir.”

Siiiiiiizzle.

The potion, mermaid blood, and mermaid poison mixed with each other and started to sizzle. However they could see that the mermaid blood that was mixed with the highest-grade potion was evaporating the poison.

“Oooo, ugh.”

Ron started to groan. His eyelids started to shake.

It was because the mermaid poison that was deep in his body was starting to disappear.

Ron’s eyes slowly started to open.

“...Young master-nim.”

“Stop talking, I am busy.”

Ron still continued to ask.

“Are you healing me right now?”

“Yes.”

Cale verified that the sticky poison that was stuck to Ron’s body was gone before looking toward Ron.

“The poison is gone. Now you just need to recover.”

“I see.”

Cale took off the now-bloody white glove and threw it into the fire.

“Ron.”

“Yes, young master-nim.”

Ron looked back at Cale. Beacrox was looking at Cale as well.

“There is nobody left in that organization that knows your face. You know what I mean, right?”

Cale turned away from the fire in order to look at Ron as he continued.

“It means it is now time to go home.”

The poison was gone and the person who took Ron’s arm was no longer in this world. That was why Cale was saying that they could now go back to the Henituse estate.

The word, ‘home,’ made Ron slowly close his eyes.

“Yes, young master-nim.”

Cale nodded his head and patted Beacrox’s shoulder. Beacrox had been holding his father’s hand since earlier.

“We will start Ron’s recovery as soon as we get back.”

That was the last thing Cale said before leaving the tent. He could see the endless ocean and sky. After working hard all day, it was now night time. The night sky over the ocean had a way of making people emotional.

“I guess I’ll finally get to rest for a bit.”

Cale started to smile. They’ll need to deal with Ron’s recovery, but at least Ron was still alive.

Cale was thinking that he could now enjoy the slacker life at home for a bit.

“Young master-nim, you’re back!”

“Long time no see, Hans.”

Hans greeted Cale with a bright expression.

“Umm, young master-nim, what about Mr. Ron?”

“The poison is gone.”

“Oh, wow. Thank you very much.”

“Why are you thanking me? Everything has been fine while I was gone?”

“Yes. There is nothing to report.”

After seeing that Hans did not seem worried at all, Cale believed that he would be able to live the slacker life once again, even if it was only for a year.

Well, at least that was what he thought.
