Did you say that humans are animals of adaptation?
On a night when the moon was unusually blue, Amy was leisurely resting with her legs crossed even as the ferry boat was dangerously rolling over due to high waves.
“… … The sound of strong waves is like a lullaby. But you know me. “The sea is not something to be afraid of.”
There is such a story.
There is an unbelievable story that when a person goes through too much hardship, his or her brain breaks down a little to protect one’s sanity.
“It is human imagination that creates fear… … . Nature and the sea just exist where they are… … .”
Is Amy’s head broken?
Or did I really attain enlightenment?
Like a Taoist master of nature and life, he spoke wonderful lines and chewed dried fish.
“Um-um, what do you think? “Are you still sleeping?”
Looking at someone shaking a blanket, it looks like Amy has a new friend to sail with. But unlike Amy, who was perfectly adapted to the sea, her new friend suffered from seasickness.
“… … I’m sleeping. “I couldn’t sleep at all.”
Sigh-
Someone covered in a blanket removed the blanket with a tired face.
“I’m dying of seasickness from the fishy smell… … . “How do you sleep?”
Amy’s new partner was Kim Eun-ah. When Sandra told Amy that she was going to deliver the news that Shin Yoo-seong was alive, he willingly provided her with an escort.
[You may encounter pirates while sailing, and there are too many villains in the world for a woman to travel alone.]
So Eunah Kim and Amy became a team and started sailing.
Of course, it was not a voyage to visit the Gaonne Academy family and tell them that Lady Shin Yurcion was alive.
The purpose of this voyage was to convey Sandra’s ambitions to the commander of the Seiden Knights and prepare for war ahead of the fact. In a way, it is an important matter that determines the success or failure of the attack.
“It’s a very uncomfortable world, but what can you do? We have to endure it. “Where we lived, all you had to do was send a message through your pocket!”
Kim Eun-ah nodded weakly and took a bite of dried fish.
She had no intention of complaining about the side dish during such an important strategy, but as soon as it touched her mouth, Kim Eun-ah got goosebumps all over her body.
Jilgeong-
To put it nicely, the scent of the sea.
To put it in a bad way, it smells fishy.
Jilgeong-
As Kim Eun-ah was forcefully chewing the dried fish that could not be chewed well, she became desperate to attack the tower as soon as possible.
“hey. Something. Don’t you want to eat something soft? Something like a boiled egg… … .”
white night.
Kim Eun-ah suddenly got excited about the topic of ‘food’.
“Hehe, yes. It’s good. boiled egg. But it’s surprising. “Eun, it’s a bit of a simple dish for you.”
Amy nodded and agreed with Kim Eun-ah. However, it was surprising that Kim Eun-ah, who had tried all kinds of delicacies, chose only a simple dish called ‘boiled eggs.’
“It’s delicious when you sprinkle salt on it, but boiled eggs are a bit ordinary.”
Kim Eun-ah burst out laughing at Amy’s words. She then took it, shivering as she curled her body against the cold sea breeze.
“It’s a different story if it’s an egg cooked in hot spring water. “How creamy is the texture?”
“Huh, hot springs? Have you been to those places too? “Oh, you would have rented the whole thing.”
Renting an entire lodging with a hot spring would have been too big a story for the average person, but it was quite possible for Kim Eun-ah, the successor to Shinsung Group.
“No, I bought one. “My mom is in charge of the Japanese branch.”
However, Kim Eun-ah took another drink.
“Oh, you bought it… … .”
Amy briefly reflects on herself for underestimating Kim Eun-ah. Kim Eun-ah covered herself up like a blanket as the cold got worse, recalling her nostalgic past.
“The water is hot. How nice it would be to soak in hot spring water in an open-air bath with an open sky… … .”
“swimming… … I hope so… … .”
Amy grinned like an idiot and remembered the warm hot springs. Although she was currently suffering from the cold sea breeze, Amy felt warm just thinking about the hot springs.
“… … Hot water and cold night air. “That’s the beauty of hot springs.”
Kim Eun-ah also recalled that time with a tired face, as if she missed it. As she spent time on this ferry boat, filled with the fishy smell of seafood and the salty sea breeze, Kim Eun-ah desperately wanted to wash up.
“lol… … .”
And Amy nods and smiles like an idiot, as if she feels the same way.
“If you take a dip like that and wait about 10 minutes, the secretary puts a plate on the water! “It’s what makes it float.”
Kim Eun-ah continued her description with a proud expression thanks to Amy’s reaction.
“Imagine. A soft hot spring egg served on a plate with cider so cold it made my teeth hurt… … .”
Amy closed her eyes and imagined, just like Eunah Kim said.
A day when the night air was cold.
I see myself soaking in a hot spring, putting a towel on my head, and taking a deep breath with a satisfied look on my face.
[So, shall we try cider and eggs now?]
I smiled brightly and ate the hot spring eggs on my plate with a spoon, then rinsed my mouth with cold cider.
[Kya~!]
The moment when Amy, who was impressed by the refreshing refreshing carbonation, opened her eyes with a happy face.
Slap-slap-slap-
Amy faced the cruel reality again as she looked at the still vast ocean. And the same goes for Kim Eun-ah, who was in love with her sweet dreams.
“… … When will Seiden arrive?”
When Kim Eun-ah, hugging her knees, asked in a weak voice as she remembered the hot springs, Amy scratched her head.
“Well, maybe… … 2 days? “Of course, unless you encounter a typhoon or a sea monster along the way.”
From Amy’s point of view, it was humorous to make her laugh, but Kim Eun-ah nodded weakly.
“I see… … .”
As the atmosphere became increasingly gloomy, Amy tried to change the mood by smiling.
“Oh right! Now I just have to slowly roll it up! “Eun, is this your first time seeing this?”

Like a fisherman pulling a net, he pulled the line on the ferry boat, and fish with bait came out one after another.
“Look at this~ There are a lot of guys with stripes this time? Because this guy smells bad! “Let’s peel off the intestines, dry them, and grill this silver-scaled guy!”
However, even while Amy was busy listing the fish and chatting away, Kim Eun-ah was only looking at one place intently.
Gray sea area.
Kim Eun-ah’s eyes landed on an unidentifiable shadow creeping from underneath the ferryboat.
Kim Eun-ah called Amy in a very serious voice.
“Hey, Amy. “Why do you think this is the king’s sea area?”
Nevertheless, Amy, who was removing the fish from the bait with a concentrated look on her face, only responded nonchalantly, saying, “Okay.”
“Of course I know. That’s the information I was talking about. “There are several bosses like Sandra in the Sea of Kings.”
But what Amy knows is the half-truth. Kim Eun-ah shook her head, her eyes still fixed on the sea.
“Then why do you think they chose that sea area?”
“Well, you don’t know that, do you? “Hmm, was the location good?”
“I heard it from Benian’s mercenary group, but there is a legend in this sea area.”
A story Amy will never know.
A legend passed down only to those who have lived in the waters of the Emperor.
“… … “In the waters of the monarchs, there is a true monarch.”
Kim Eun-ah, with a stern expression, opened in a quiet voice.
“The king with a thousand teeth swallows the stomach in one bite.”
Kim Eun-ah recited exactly what the mercenary member said.
“If an angry monarch slams his tail, any island will sink.”
However, after being defeated by the owners of the sea area led by Sandra, the ‘Emperor’ gave up his name and disappeared.
It has never been shown once until now. It only came down as a legend through sailors and mercenaries in the sea.
[Listen carefully. That guy is no ordinary fish. Do you know why we praised him as an emperor for no reason?]
Kim Eun-ah recalled the sign the mercenary had told her.
[That guy controls the weather. The beads in his eyes are his strength. I can create a storm or cast dark clouds at will.]
The sky was as dark as the mercenary said.
It was not the darkness that comes naturally at night, but very thick dark clouds.
[What happens to the sea when something bigger than an island approaches the ship? The sea becomes calm without a single wave… … .]
The sea was very calm compared to before. It was as quiet as a lake, and there was even silence. There was only silence, as if the sound of waves I had heard countless times until now was a lie.
[If you see the emperor in person, you will never forget it. Sparkling under the sea… … .]
Kim Eun-ah pointed with her finger to a point in the sea that she had been staring at.
“Look over there.”
The gray sea.
Ironically, a huge red gem shines so beautifully inside.
[…] … If you look at that guy’s red eyes.]
Kim Eun-ah stood up on the ferry, threw off her mat, and spoke in a subdued voice.
“… … “It is the king.”
