Chapter 339

[21st Round] Youre Fired!

I thought you hated the world of Fantasy because you always said you wanted to go home. For me, though, this is where my mother and I were born and raised, so I used to feel enraged by that att.i.tude of yours.

I see.

Living standards here had slightly improved when I introduced flush toilets, but this planet still had a long way to go.

However, Ssosiel, who rested her head on my shoulder, interpreted it in her own way.

But now Ive come to realize that despite all the words youve thrown, you actually love this world. You instantly found a common language with the locals, and they immediately fell in love with you. This would be impossible if you didnt understand their life and did not empathize with them.

All Ive been doing is skillfully use those stupid savages with the help of Fabrication and Incitement.

There are reasons for everything in this world, but it doesnt matter what they are. What matters is that you fit into their community and get along well with them.

Everyone can do that.

Not really. I know I cant. I can only stand by and watch.

Is that so

There was nothing more I could say in reb.u.t.tal.

The reason I could easily get along with the people of Fantasy was because of my first companions.

It wasnt because they helped.

To confront my companions who disagreed with me at every opportunity, I needed people to support me.

Hence, I made sure I could get close to anyone if I wanted.

As a result, reputation manipulation became as natural to me as breathing.

Im really happy my husband loves my home planet.

Seriously, how did you come to that conclusion?

It seemed like Rice Cake influenced her a lot.

My father is amazing!

Green Cake, who had remained silent until now, looked at me with respect.

Well its really nothing. Watch and learn. Heres what you can do in a short amount of time with just a few beers.

What? Cruise s.h.i.+p of the G.o.ds?!

Flying s.h.i.+p Laurita!

The legendary s.h.i.+p has been rediscovered!

Everyone to the tavern!

The story I told quickly spread throughout the port.

The ma.s.s production of even larger airs.h.i.+ps was organized on the Western Continent, but the Eastern Continent, a developing country, hadnt yet reached this level.

For them, it was like a star in the night sky.

You will need a skilled sailor!

And someone who will take the helm for you!

What about a mate with extensive experience?

Im a good sailor too!

Ah! Dont you need a cook?

I can heal the wounded!

A lot of people immediately started asking me to join my team.

Since they were born on the Eastern Continent, they grew up listening to their parents and other adults speak of legends.

The most popular of them was the story of the Flying s.h.i.+p Laurita.

Paying no heed to stormy waves and typhoons tearing through endless waters, it could travel from the Eastern to the Western Continent in a single day.

For sailors, it served as the epitome of dreams.

Of course

How sure are you he isnt just some liar?

I dont think you should just blindly trust random pa.s.sers-by.

Liar? Throw him out to the mermaids in the water.

Is it even worth it?

Some didnt believe me or hesitated.

But those whose attention I wanted to attract quickly took the bait.

The time had come for them to appear.

Look! Its her s.h.i.+p! The Pirate Queen has returned!

My G.o.d! The Bandit King has also appeared!

Oh! This is insane! Even the Merchant King is here too!

Unlike Merchant King, who wasnt a criminal, Pirate Queen and Bandit King couldnt freely visit this area.

But these rules, set by the authorities, could be skillfully circ.u.mvented.

If they didnt cause a disturbance, one could easily turn a blind eye to their existence. After all, battles occurring in the city werent good for anybody. If, on the contrary, they engaged in common consumerism, they would actually bring benefits to its economy.

Still, criminals were criminals.

Hey, earthworms. Get out of my way!

Water fleas! Begone from my sight!

Pirates and bandits werent on the best terms.

They had no conflicts over territories, but that was the problem.

It was a matter of honor.

Pirates ruled the sea, and bandits ruled the land. Both factions saw themselves to be the stronger faction.

An important individual is coming, you criminals! If you dont disperse, Ill send every last one of you to jail!

Why is the road blocked, chancellor?

Sorry, sir. Weve now cleared the way.

Very well.

A long procession deliberately wedged itself between the pirates and the bandits, pus.h.i.+ng them aside.

Merchant King made his entrance.

His pale skin and blond hair suggested he was a thoroughbred n.o.bleman, but he was a real hard worker who rose from the bottom at a young age.

Wild boar, well settle our differences next time, growled the female wearing a black c.o.c.ked hat with a white skull depicted on it.

Under her admirals uniform, which gave her a n.o.ble appearance, she wore only a swimsuit so tight it fettered her prominent parts.

She was sometimes mistaken for a mermaid because of her blue hair, but looking at her pointed ears, one could immediately tell that she was an elf with mixed blood.

I was certain she wasnt a pureblood.

Elves could only dream of such huge b.r.e.a.s.t.s.

Pirate Queen had ruled all pirates for a long time now, and she also served as the main rival of mermaids.

A swarthy man with a bare upper body answered her, Bwahahaha! Thats my line, seal!

Bandit King was also an elf with mixed blood, but I wasnt certain about his other race.

Merchant King, Pirate Queen, Bandit King.

The strongest representatives of the Eastern Continent entered the tavern one by one.

To meet me.

They all wanted to get their hands on the legendary treasure known as the Flying s.h.i.+p Laurita.

Merchant King, reaching me ahead of the two, greeted me first.

Its not unprecedented at all that people call you a liar. I am called the Merchant King. For more information

No need.

Then lets get straight to the point. Disregarding the possibility that this is a bluff, then you know the location of Flying s.h.i.+p Laurita. Where did you get that information?

I saw it with my own eyes.

Is that so?

Merchant King raised his right hand slightly.

Click! Click! Click!

The people accompanying him pulled out weapons.

But the bandits and pirates werent stupid.

How could you start without me, Merchant King?

b.l.o.o.d.y seal! Dont get ahead of me! If you want to continue trading on land, Merchant King, you better lay down your arms.

Bang, Bang, Bang

Pirate Queen and Bandit King quickly disarmed Merchant Kings escort.

The difference in their skills was so great that they didnt even have to kill anyone.

Although, if a firefight had begun, Merchant King would have pulled out his weapon too.

Although they all carried royal t.i.tles, they acted like gangsters.

Pirate Queen raised a question.

Does the lord of the seas who told you about the s.h.i.+ps location have the same blue hair like mine?

He was born in the Magic Kingdom of the Northern Continent and is also a disciple of Sage. He still loves his daughter, to whom he gave his precious ring.

Escort me to him. Or sell me a map of his location. Even though I am a pirate, I swear, on my precious ring, that I will pay for it fairly.

Pirate Queen wasnt like this in the beginning.

Visit ReadNovelFull[.]com for extra chapters.

After several years of wandering in search of her father, who disappeared at sea, she was caught by pirates and became their queen only after she rose from the bottom, having gone through the most severe trials.

That was also the case in my first round.

Her target wasnt the vessel itself, as rumored to be, but the whereabouts of her father that went on an adventure in search of it.

Bandit King intervened in our conversation.

They say the flying s.h.i.+p is filled with the angels treasures. Is this true?

No.

Whats in it?

It was empty.

The Flying s.h.i.+p Laurita was seized and repaired by the guardians of the Northern Continent, but before that, it was used by the First Hero.

Fugitive Senior, who spent money on family entertainment, couldnt leave expensive treasures in it.

Eventually, after handling it poorly, Laurita crashed.

Haha! Really! My grandfather had been in that crashed flying s.h.i.+p! I planned on killing you if you lied to me, but Im now ready to negotiate. I am that treasures true owner! Tell me where it is, and I swear on my grandfathers name that Ill definitely repay you!

That was complete nonsense.

If he were to get it, he would immediately plunder on land, water, and sky.

Of course, he wouldnt be able to do it for a long time.

An airs.h.i.+p was amazing from humanitys perspective, but it was just a simple paper airplane against the might of dragons.

Ssosiel poked my side.

Whats the matter?

What are you going to do with them? If you dont tell them where the s.h.i.+p is, theyll start a fight with you.

That was a very good question.

I patted Green Cakes hair with my right hand.

This is my son Green Cake. Tsk tsk! Oh, these people! There doesnt seem to be any reaction. Oh?! A mug of beer for the daredevil applauding my son! No, two mugs!

The people who became nervous because of these powerful leaders presence, who served as the Eastern Continents representatives, instantly cheered up.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Uh Father? He sounded embarra.s.sed.

It was really frustrating.

He should already know how to a.s.sess the situation and react accordingly by now.

Was it because he didnt really have my blood flowing in his veins? Unfortunately, my adopted child didnt know how to use Fabrication and Incitement.

Well, it shouldnt be a problem.

The Lord of the Seas and the Flying s.h.i.+p Laurita are in the endless waters separating the Eastern and Western continents. It is a place so dangerous only a few managed to return alive from its waves.

Endless waters.

It was more than twice the total area of all the Earths oceans in size, and its depth was five times their average.

In the middle of it was a whirlpool so huge not even the most outstanding s.h.i.+ps could pa.s.s through it.

I patted Green Cake on his shoulder. My son will escort you to the island where the legend rests. Haha! Dont underestimate him. Although my child looks young and innocent, he is very intelligent. All you have to do is follow him. Pretty simple, right?

Father, I Kh!

I stepped on Green Cakes foot before he could say he didnt know the islands location, and he immediately shut his mouth.

I was worried about his future.

He should take this opportunity to have a good social experience.

Merchant King looked at me intently.

Why didnt you take it for yourself?

I couldnt move it since I dont have the right to control it.

I see Ill have to reset its steering rights somehow Ahem-hmm! I apologize for such a stupid question.

Pirate Queen asked afterward, Who will you give it to?

You can figure that out among yourselves since I dont care who it belongs to. Whoever emerges the strongest will gain full owners.h.i.+p of it.

Youre a demon.

Pirate Queen was pretty shrewd.

But I wasnt just an ordinary demon. I was the Demon Lord.

It didnt take long for Bandit King to express his displeasure.

And were supposed to follow him?

Haha! I dont even have time to take care of my wifes pelvis. Hence, I thought, why not send my son?'

He doesnt look like you at all Kh?!

Bang!

Bandit King fell to the ground, crying out like a wounded boar.

I wasnt the one who did it.

It was Green Cake.

Appearance is not everything! If you p.i.s.s me off one more time, I will punish you again!

My son.

The way he ended his words wasnt the best, but I was happy.

If he could conduct business even with such people, then he would definitely become a great dragon.

My wife poked me my side again.

What is it this time?

What are you trying to achieve by sending your son to that place?

Green Cake followed me across all the continents.

All that remained was to add to his resume that he was a great explorer of legends.

Afterward

Im going to fire Lanuvel.
