chapter20 Black Pearl

On the northern seas, a large merchant ship sailed in the gentle sunshine and the right sea breeze.

On the bow of the merchant ship, there are a few big words written, which look even more shiny after the sea water is washed away - the Black Pearl.

Captain Cook, wearing a strange captain suit, stood at the stern of the boat and looked at the Pirate Islands that were about to disappear from sight.

"Oh~" After a while, Captain Cook sighed loudly, turned around and walked into the cabin.

"Hey, old guy." Walking into the kitchen, the magician who was still wearing a sailor suit greeted Cook while drinking, "Stop thinking about the little girl magician. Maybe she was just angry that day. Or on the other hand, if she could really go to Pirate Island by herself, why did she have to take our ship? It has been more than ten days, maybe she had already gone to Pirate Island and felt the taste of leaving first. To be honest, there was nothing else on that Pirate Island except the unruly pirates and delicious sea snake dragons. If it weren't for the safety of the Kingdom fleet on this route, we wouldn't have to go around the road to Pirate Island. What's more, war is not something that can be controlled by one person, right?"

"I just feel a little regretful." Cook also sat on the other side of the magician without hesitation. "The guys in Monteria Port can't see it, you can't tell it either. Her magic badge is the badge of a high-level magician. With her age, this almost shows that she will definitely become a great magician in the future. Perhaps the city-states in the mountains can cause some trouble to us now, but under his leadership, we will definitely unify the entire mountains. At that time, the enemy we have to face is the Kingdom of Kaochi, which has two great magicians. The Kingdom of Leding, who does not have its own great magician, will definitely be very passive in front of the great magician."

"Are the great palace mage who inherited the magic emperor's 'Doom Catastrophe' and the God of Wisdom'..." The magician took a big sip of wine and said, "The situation in the mountains can indeed not withstand a 'Doom Catastrophe'... And the God of Wisdom can predict the future... Indeed, if it really faces Kaoqi, the situation will be overwhelmingly unfavorable to Ledin. Unfortunately, most of the magicians in the mountains are consumed in meaningless internal struggles..."

"Yes...there are so many talented magicians who are strangled by the enemy on the battlefield..." Cook said, "So, we must win this war... But if Kaochi reacted immediately, Leding would be dangerous..."

"This is indeed an almost unsolvable knot..."

Then, the two fell silent, seemingly drinking the wine in the glass casually.

Suddenly, the magician put down his wine glass.

"How could such a strong magical fluctuation appear so close to the ship!" As he said, the magician walked out, "Was it possible that a sailor has provoked the monsters in the sea again? No... the monsters that were angry will not act restrained. Cook, hurry up and see what happened!"

"What other threat can the Marine Warcraft be left without the water?" Cook, who had drunk a little more, stood up a little staggeringly, "And, I'm not a combatant. If it's really a Warcraft, I can only see it, right? Moreover, isn't this a good opportunity to try the grassland people we recruit this time?"

"Then you keep drinking your bar, I have to go over and watch just in case." After that, the magician left the kitchen.

"A Marine Warcraft? Unfortunately... the monsters that can use magic don't taste very good." Cook, who sat down again, gave himself another glass of wine.

After a while, the magician returned to the kitchen.

"Old guy, did the monster be solved so quickly?" Cook turned around and said, "Oh... It seems that I'm drunk too much today, why did I have hallucinations? But, it's such a wonderful hallucination~ Miss Beren Casfil, your beauty and loveliness are like the stars in the sky~"

"Captain Cook, you should wake up first..." Fortunately, the drunk Cook did not do anything rude, and the magician said, "Also, this is not an illusion. The one standing in front of you is Miss Beren Casfil."

"Mr. Longan." Liuli said to the magician. "Since Mr. Cook needs time to sober up and I am a little tired, so please allow me to take a break first and then listen to what Mr. Cook wants to talk to me?"

"Oh, I'm sorry," said the magician. "I was so abrupt. I'll take Miss Beren Casfil to the guest room on the boat."

"Well, thank you so much~" Liuli smiled slightly, and then said to Nero, who was sitting on her shoulder and napping, "Nini, you are tired these days, huh~ Nothing has ever been easier for that uncle Lefurt to ask for... It's true."

"Um...huh..." Nero nodded in a daze, holding the decoration on Liuli's shoulders.

"It's here, Miss Beren Casfil." After walking in the boat for a short while, the magician led Liuli and Nero to the opposite side of the captain's room and opened the door, "This is the guest room. The conditions on the boat are limited. I hope Miss Beren Casfil, you will be more forgiving."

"I'm very grateful that there is still a separate room. Thank you, Mr. Longgan." Walking into the room, Liuli gave a mage ceremony to the magician.

"Well..." Seeing Liuli's mage ceremony, Longgan had to reply to Liuli's mage ceremony, and then said, "I won't disturb your rest, Miss Beren Casfil. I will remind you before dinner."

"Yeah, then I'll trouble you."

Then, the magician gently closed the door of the guest room and returned to the kitchen.

"Hey! Old guy!" Captain Cook seemed to wash his face and wake up. There were still water drops on his hair tied into many small braids, but his voice was much clearer than before. "Did that magician lady really come to our ship?"

"Yes, Cook." The wizard nodded.

"Then this is a great opportunity!" Cook said excitedly, "Let's go, take me to see her! Where is she now?"

"Don't be so impatient, Cook." The magician stopped Cook who wanted to leave the kitchen. "It's not a gentleman's behavior to disturb a lady's rest. Moreover, I have good news and bad news, which I must tell you now."

"Oh, that magician lady is resting. Then wait until she has rested before disturbing me." Cook also knew that he was too impatient just now and sat back on the stool, "Okay, my old guy. What kind of good news and what kind of bad news?"

"Cook, can you guess how this wizard lady came to our ship?" After sitting back at his seat, the wizard asked Cook.

"Does this still need to be asked? It must be the wind-type wind wing technique." Cook replied, "With the magic of a high-level magician, the half-day voyage from Pirate Island to Black Pearl can still be supported."

"Well, if it were before today, I would have answered like you." The magician said, "It's a pity that you answered wrong."

"Oh? Then how did this magician lady come from?" Cook asked curiously, "Besides the Wind Wing Technique, I really don't know any other spells that can do this."

"Of course, I didn't know such a magic before... it wasn't right. I should say I knew it, but I never thought anyone could use it." The magician paused and kept it a little behind. "When I arrived on the deck, I happened to see Miss Beren Casfil falling from the air to the sea. At that time, I thought she was just exhausted and was about to order the crew to put down the boat and save her. As a result, guess what happened."

"I don't understand magic, I can't guess." Cook shrugged and admitted directly that he was a layman in magic. "It's not that the magician lady appeared directly on the deck, right?"

"Very good, Cook, you're really right this time," said the magician. "Miss Beren Casfil suddenly disappeared before my eyes before I gave the order, and then, in the next moment, appeared on the deck. Do you know, what does this mean? Cook."

"Is it... the legendary space magic?"

"Yes. Because space magic is only circulated in the legend of the war between gods and demons, and even the former magic empire only has a few fixed teleportation magic arrays." The magician said seriously, "So, I always think that space magic is just a legend. But today, I have witnessed the real space magic! If Miss Beren Casfil uses this magic in war, Cook, how can we be afraid of the combination of the earth-bound array and heavy armored soldiers? An elusive army will suddenly appear in front of you when you are completely unaware..."

"Indeed... if she could really do this, Ledin wouldn't need so many wind magicians." Cook nodded and said.

"So, my good news is that if we can win over Miss Beren Casfil, then the war will definitely end soon." The magician said with a wry smile, "But... this is also the bad news. How can such a great magician accept our win over?"

"Great Magician!" Cook asked loudly, "Old man, don't scare me."

"Just now, Miss Beren Casfil used three magics, namely fire, water and wind. Even Cook, you should know what it means to be able to use multi-type magic? Moreover, that perfect control is definitely something that only a great magician can have." The magician said with a wry smile, "And, guess what she is doing with magic?"

"Okay, old man, don't let me guess the riddles all the time," Cook said. "We have to plan a good idea to make her willing to meet 'him' with us once. If 'him' cannot keep this magician lady, then we will definitely have no choice."

"That's right..." said the magician, "and, Miss Beren Casfil, used water magic to wash the face of his pet elf, and then used fire magic and wind magic to dry the water droplets on the elf's hair... This kind of control... I never knew what magician could do. Magic... When did it become something used to do this?"
