Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1170. It looks like a pirate ship.

For a whole day, the magical sailboat floated in the sea of demons.

On the first day, the sailors did not detect any abnormality and passed it over. He thought that there was no choice but to do so because there was no wind.

The morning of the second day was bright.

Navigator Bruno checked the direction of the player as soon as he opened his eyes.

‘It’s to the southwest.’

The ship was sailing around the outskirts of the Sea of Demons.

Relieved, he pulled the well-tied sailline tight once more.

The wind started blowing in the morning, and the horse-powered sailboat quickly split the current.

At this speed, it’s only a matter of time before they completely get out of the sea of demons.

He checked the numerous sail lines one by one before going back to the cabin.

around lunchtime.

The magic sailboat moved to a position where it was completely out of the Sea of Magic in half a day.

When Captain Althelm reached the southern end of the Sea of Ma, he slowly turned his bow to the north.

After crossing the sea area of the demon – from west to east – for one day, now it is about to cross – from south to north – again.

The helmsman Dilos, who had gone out to rest, hurriedly returned to the wheelhouse.

“Captain? Why did you turn the player around?”

“Why? They are doing it to pass through the sea of demons.”

“How long have you been out of there, so you’re going back in?”

“It’s not going in, it’s passing.”

“Weren’t you in the sea of demons all day yesterday? But are you going again today?”

“It was because there was no wind yesterday, and today can pass in half a day, so why are you so surprised?”

“Half a day? The wind direction is opposite. It will not pass until midnight.”

“It’s not all day, though.”

“You made it clear then! They say they don’t stay long in the sea of demons.”

“Did I say something wrong? You are passing by, not staying.”

“That is it. Are you kidding me?”

“It’s too much to play with words.”

When Captain Althelm showed a straight face, Dilos quickly apologized.

“sorry. But if we go into Captain Ma’s waters again, Bruno won’t stay still.”

“Isn’t it that you have a helmsman so that you can take care of such a person? You better convince me.”

On a horse-powered sailboat, the helmsman managed the crew as the next most powerful person next to the captain.

So Captain Althelm’s instructions were not unreasonable.

“What if Bruno doesn’t follow my instructions?”

“Punish or imprison, whatever you want. The sailors who don’t listen anyway are going to change water after this voyage.”

“All right.”

Delos asked no more.

This is because if the captain’s will is firm enough to mention a water change, he must follow it unconditionally.

“I understand Bruno, but what about you?”

“yes? What are you talking about?”

“What do you think about us wandering around the Sea of Demons?”

“If the question is whether you believe the rumors about the Sea of Demons, then I don’t believe them. But I don’t dismiss it as nonsense.”

“You mean a neutral position?”

“That’s right.”

“I think it is superstition. That’s why I signed a contract with the northern nobles.”

“It seemed so.”

“As soon as the words are out, you should also know. The northern nobles hope that the magic sailboat will not get out of the sea of demons. If you continue to stay in the Sea of Demons, there will definitely be words among the sailors. Take care of complaints and keep a close eye on those who do not improve. When I return to the port, I will never go out to sea with them again.”

“yes.”

“Let me just say this. Sooner or later, a mobilization order will be issued, and if that happens, those who are jobless will be recruited as territorial soldiers.”

“Is there a mobilization order?”

“It’s not like dispatching troops, but they say they’re increasing the troops in Hades Port. It’s better to get on a boat than to be dragged down by the maniac. Isn’t it?”

“Of course not.”

No money is paid to the gnostic, but the sailors receive a salary.

It was clear that if he wasn’t an idiot, he would take the boat.

Even if that ship goes to the Sea of Demons.

***

Elio and the others almost lived in the player.

They brought a chair to the player, sat on it, and looked at the sea and sky all day long.

The captain, who was worse off, ordered the helmsman to install an awning over the bow.

under the canopy.

Elio shook his head with a bored expression.

Contrary to its terrifying name, the Sea of Demons was very calm.

It is so calm that now it is doubtful whether there is a star in the Sea of Demons.

“I don’t feel good.”

Fabian responded to Elio’s murmur.

“why?”

“I feel cheated. Today is the second day. There can be no way that such a quiet and peaceful sea is the sea of demons.”

“There are days like this and there are days like that.”

“There is no day like that. It’s just days like this.”

“What are you so uptight about? A sky star that remained undiscovered for thousands of years and abandoned by sorcerers. It is not a problem that can be solved in a day or two.”

“If there are false rumors about the sea of demons, it’s because you’re completely on the wrong foot. You have to go somewhere else to find the Celestial Star.”

“Viscount, it’s only been two days. Those words are worth at least a year, so shouldn’t you try to find them before saying them?”

“You want me to do this for a year? If you don’t want to, you should quit. What are you talking about?”

“The Viscount has been here for a long time, so why are you doing that?”

“I believe and wait when the sea of demons runs rampant like rumors. look at this peaceful sea Where do you see that this is the sea of demons?”

“It’s not like the sea of demons goes wild every day! How many times can I tell you there are more good days! To the point where there are even more people who don’t believe it!”

Frustrated, Fabian raised his voice.

There were far more calm days than rampant days in the Sea of Demons.

I don’t know how many times I’ve said that already.

Only then did Viscount Elio Lagoa’s dissatisfaction subside.

“If I persevere, that day will come, right?”

“coming. Weather isn’t always good.”

“Not just bad weather. The weather in the Demon Sea is special.”

“Whether it’s special weather or just bad weather, it will come if you wait.”

“Hey man! Bad weather just means nothing. It’s better not to come. They say it only makes people suffer.”

“If you know that, it’s a bit tedious, so wait and see. It’s not like the demon’s sea is running away, so why are you bothering me like that?”

“Who do you think caught up? It was so quiet that I had a reasonable suspicion. Have you ever been out at sea and never doubted that?”

“Of course it’s not like that, but you don’t have to say that, do you? Anyway, it will be revealed with time.”

“Ooh! I’m a wise man I’m a wise man you are good.”

It was the time when Elio grumbled after being pushed back by Fabian in an argument.

The helmsman scrambled across the deck.

“Good! Get well!”

As the helmsman made a fuss, Fabian rose from his seat.

“What is it? Did you find anything?”

“A strange ship is rapidly approaching our ship. It looks like a pirate ship.”

“pirate ship?”

“Yes, I don’t know if it’s an enemy ship or a pirate, but… it’s certain that it’s targeting our ship. This is because there are no ships that go this route, and even if there were, they wouldn’t approach it so recklessly.”

“So what?”

When Fabian asked back, the helmsman of Dilos spoke quickly.

“We don’t have much combat experience because we only sailed in close waters. I think we should evacuate to Hades Port for now. The captain told me to find out your opinions.”

“Can you escape the pirate ship if you avoid it?”

Fabian looked around, but the pirate ship was behind him.

“But I can’t just sit still and win.”

“Does the pirate ship have magic cannons?”

“That’s on battleships, not on pirate ships. All you have to do is walk over with a hook and fight with a sword.”

“Tell them that they don’t have to run away if the opponent’s ship doesn’t have magic cannons.”

“If it’s a pirate ship, the pirates will come to our ship.”

“Everyone who crosses will die. The Count is the Sword Master and the Viscount is the Grand Master.”

“Is that true?”

The helmsman of Dilos looked at the northern nobles with dubious eyes.

It’s hard to believe even if it’s just a sword master, but a grand master?

No matter how much I spit out, I hope you keep the proper line.

“Do I look like someone who would lie to me about life-and-death matters?”

“Oh no.”

“Then go and tell them. Just stay still.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Delos helmsman bowed and hurriedly returned to the wheelhouse.

Looking at him like that, Fabian muttered disapprovingly.

“Really? Did I look like such a fool?”

Then Elio said something.

“That there is a grand master. From next time, just do the sword master.”

“I was afraid the Viscount would be disappointed.”

“I’m not that petty.”

“Yes, please don’t say anything else later.”

“Stop talking nonsense and go and check whether it is a pirate ship or not. If it’s the southern navy, it can fire magic cannons.”

“All right.”

Fabian immediately rose from his seat and looked up at the main mast.

As expected, at the top of the topcastle, a sailor was looking behind him through a telescope.

“hey! Top Castle there! Can you hear me!”

At Fabian’s cry, the sailor took his eyes off the telescope and looked down.

“yes! lily!”

“I heard someone is chasing me? Is it a pirate ship? Is it a battleship?”

“It doesn’t look like a battleship!”

“Not a battleship? Are you sure?”

“yes! It looks like a converted merchant ship!”

“Which flag would you know? Is it hanging!”

“Nothing!”

Fabian inadvertently turned his head to the stern.

Two flags with the patterns of the Duchy of Lorraine and Count Belanus fluttered vigorously.

After thinking for a moment, Fabian kicked off the floor and leaped.

He soared halfway up the mainmast, stepped on a transverse yard just before he fell, and soared again.

The sailors who watched him nearby opened their mouths.

They had met the knights too, but it was the first time they had seen such a nimble movement.

After stepping on the yard and flying like a bird, Fabian lightly landed on the top castle.

He intended to check the unidentified ship with his own two eyes.

Sailor Steed, who was stunned by the Northern Knight’s splendid movements, lowered his eyes.

I thought the knights would be desperate on the ship, but there was nothing to say because they were flying so fast.

“Give me the telescope.”

“yes.”

Steed handed over the telescope without saying anything.

Fabian looked through the telescope in the direction the sailor was looking earlier.

indeed! A large sailboat was approaching through the current.

Fortunately, there were no cannons anywhere on the deck.

There could be portholes on the left and right sides of the sailboat, but that didn’t seem likely.

Steed, who was standing there awkwardly, pretended to know.

“Looking at the low hull, it is more like a merchant ship than a battleship.”

“It looks that way to my eyes. A pirate, not a privateer ship, right?”

Fabian shook his head.

Battleships have thick hulls to install horsepower cannons on the left and right sides of the hull.

However, that large sailboat rushing in without any sign had a flat hull, so there was no space to install a magic cannon.

Fabian returned the telescope to the sailor and said.

“Did you find it?”

“yes.”

“Right.”

After checking the sailor’s face, Fabian jumped out of the top castle.
