Chapter 323 – 13. Regina, the Vicious Outlaw of Cedgetooth Harbor

Fluttering, I looked at the parchment in my hand over and over again and turned the parchment over, leaving behind the sentences I had memorized, but there was nothing like a secret message.

“Do you really think I’m an asshole?”

“… Maybe. No, he must be looking down on him because he has a good track record of escorting merchant ships.”

Light, light, clear dagger marks left on the edge of the parchment.

Bursting with boiling anger, I stuck out my tongue at the same clear marks Regina had left, and I rolled my eyes as I looked at the arena that Regina must have written (it was actually written like this).

“Is there any reason to fall into this trap?”

“Doesn’t exist. But the place Regina has decided to meet is on her mind.”

“Location? Oh, Coral Island?”

When she said that the place bothered her, she put the parchment on the table, pulled her chin, and pulled a chair next to Arsil.

“… !”

Small in size, she shook her upper body and concentrated on her parchment. She noticed my approach and stared blankly, then cleared her throat, looked at the parchment again, and began to explain.

“There is only one route from Gargil Harbor, located south of Hormia, to this sea area, and the island located in the middle of that route is Coral Island.”

“Hmm.”

“… It is an island with a sense of neutrality, with her merchant ships docking and trading one-on-one with each other around the coral island, but if Regina occupies it and does not get out of the way, all merchant ships belonging to the Empire passing through the Gargil will be plundered by her. I will.”

“It’s a neutral island, so if Regina eats it alone, won’t there be a big backlash and she’ll rather back down?”

“That’s true, but most of the merchant ships from the Empire these days depart from Gargil, so even while Regina is currently waiting for us, the merchant ships will still be leaving.”

“Whether they are kicked out or withdrawn later, it seems that the merchant ships departing now will suffer unconditionally.”

“That’s right.”

Hmm, as she pondered for a while as she scratched her growing beard with her fingernails, Arsil was staring at me with her orange eyes sparkling as she pressed her hood down.

Like a child who wants to be taken to her amusement park, it’s her lifelong wish-I fell for her charming eyes, and I pressed her head with the palm of her palm and stroked her roughly. Asked for

“Then let’s set off. Please tell Bakmun and the crew to prepare, I have something to prepare for a while and someone to meet.”

“Whoops, whoops!”

Arsil, who jumped up like a spring and pushed her hand away, snorted her snort. Kung, Kung-I checked her back as she stomped her feet cutely, and I went straight up to her room and opened the bag that was parked in the corner of her room.

I rummaged through the subspace bag filled with gifts from the witches, all kinds of order books and gifts from the witches, and the subspace filled with potions. After taking out the perfume, I sprayed it on my dirty body while rolling around with the men, and took out the courtesy items for a while.

-Basrock

A magic scroll given by the cursed witch, Livia. It said it included an instruction manual, but it wasn’t something I would use now, because it has a clear owner.

Hearing a strange hallucination, I inserted the scroll and took out all the spellbooks.

“Hmm… “

From spells that could be used in real life, to combat, auxiliary, and countless spells, he remembered the spells for attack, put the most colorful spells engraved in his arms, and put the rest back.

“Ah, I see.”

When I put my hand into the bag, thinking of the sword and the Korean alphabet, I felt a heavy weight attached to my palm like a magnet.

As soon as he pulled it out of his bag, a heavy longsword wrapped in a black leather scabbard appeared.

-Dalkak, sereung…

The moment I unfastened the fixing button and pulled out the longsword from the scabbard, a sharp yet elegant sword line appeared. While stroking and admiring the intaglio engraved on the bottom of the blade, which was a harmonious mixture of silver and ink, the pattern shone.

When I blew mana into the feeling of something being sucked from my index finger that touched my intaglio, a familiar feeling I often felt from Undine, the blue mana wrapped around the sword and then quietly permeated, and something completely melted into my head.

“Raven, you gave me a nice present.”

I put the longsword that Raven casually handed me to me in Witchcraft into the scabbard, put the sword I had been using for a long time in the cave I was trapped with Undine into my bag, and wore the longsword Raven gave me around my waist.

“Can you say a magic sword? I hadn’t even thought about it.”

The longsword Raven gave her was a great sword by itself, but the enchantment engraved by her engrave increased the value of the longsword several times, no, dozens of times.

“Can you absorb mana?”

I don’t even remember what kind of witch Raven was, but she was a witch recognized enough to help me in the myth of being a witch. Since it was a magic cast by such a witch, it must be quite effective.

Tak, Tak, it was a bit awkward since it was longer than my original sword, but after I finished preparing by shaking off the handle of my longsword, I put on the Phirea standing on the side of the wall on the right side of my waist and quietly left the accommodation.

“Whoa…”

Looking at the clear sky without a few clouds and the sun shining brightly over the gloomy lawless port, I permeated the crowd.

-Chuck!

“Stop!”

“What are you?”

The splendid mansion halfway up the wedge-tooth harbor, as I had heard, was admiring it, thinking it to be a magnificent mansion. At that time, the two gatekeepers who were guarding the door got out of their seats and approached me.

“What is it, a guest?”

It was an obvious trap that Regina invited me to Coral Island, a neutral island nestled in the middle of the sea route, but what I needed to know was why she “Invited” Me.

The fact that the routes overlapped so much that merchant ships docked and traded one-on-one, and that ships in the sea area often gathered meant that there was a possibility that Regina’s friends would also gather.

Since she already invited them by the name of a duel, I guess I should invite at least one of her uninvited guests for her.

I met eyes with the owner of the mansion approaching through the bars with the sound of shoes clattering. I loosened my tongue in advance to make a deal, quietly pushed the gatekeepers away and straightened my back.

***

– Beep!

In the ocean with white waves, a sailboat with a mermaid figure, which we are now familiar with, was approaching our ship while cutting through the waves.

Just as the sailors furrowed their eyebrows at the deafening sound of the flute, a strange voice resounded loudly as if whispering from the side.

[You managed to find me without running away. Being here means you are ready to die!?]

“Is there such a magic?”

[Yes, the Empire countryman might not know- it’s a newly developed magic called currency magic, dog crap, no- I used it to take away your last hope, even if it wasn’t enough to cut it into pieces]

“Oh, you can hear me.”

“… Cassano.”

[Gee, doggy, fuck you bastard… ! You have plenty of room, huh? I’m so proud of myself that I won once, but that ends today. I will return Phirea and give your ship to the sea!]

“Regina. Are you missing me?”

Kung, thump, stomping his feet as he headed toward the player. The distance between the two sailboats cutting through the sea was getting closer and closer before I knew it, and with a little exaggeration, Regina and I were getting closer enough to collide.

[Casano, you fucking bastard… ! I will get revenge, I will get revenge!]

Regina, who had spotted me with the naked eye, raised her voice and the crew members’ faces twisted. I, too, frowned at her childish cry of hatred that tore her ears, then sighed, then stretched out her right arm and drew her sword.

-Coooooung!!!

Eugjik, eugjik, the mermaid figure and the lion figure collided and the ship’s trajectory was twisted. Hearing the sound of footsteps running across the deck and raising the drawn sword over his head, Phirea, who was wearing his right waist, started crying madly.

– Whiik!

With a short whistle-like sound of wind, Phirea tore off her belt and flew away, wrapping herself around Regina’s hand as she jumped from the tub.

-Click, seureung!

Grasping the scabbard with a wolfish grin, Regina landed next to me completely and immediately bent her waist as if dancing and kicked me around.

Wow!

The heel of the boot hitting her side accurately made a heavy sound, but it was bearable, so I turned her sword around and grabbed her inversely. Regina’s escape was faster.

-Quaaaaa!!!

“Oops, Shivaal!”

Regina, who smiled even though her ankle was caught, pucked her pirea into her deck and blew her mana into it. It swayed and fell over her stomach.

-Kurrure… !

I brushed off my clothes while spitting in the heavy sea water that drenched my whole body. Piing, I plunged my sword into the deck and put my hand in my bosom.

“Ha ha, ha, how is it, you bastard- isn’t it easy? I haven’t even shown my skills yet!”

“Okay, good fight. Whoa, ah- I’m not wet.”

Flutter, flutter- As I was brushing off the droplets of water on the tip of the order book I had in my arms and listening to Regina’s words, Regina, who had gritted her teeth enough to hear even though I was about 10m away, snorted at the order book in my hand and took an order form from her pocket. Took out

Crumpling her order book with her trembling hands, she watched her own men and my crew fire her cannons, chug, chug, and then began taunting me with a sinister grin.

“Cassano, you innocent pervert. Are you an idiot to believe that it is a dueling ground and come all the way here?”

“There’s no way she came unprepared—did she shake all the knowledge out of her head while whining and whining at my fingers?”

“This, baaaaal… !”

Shudder, shudder, her heart trembled at her teasing words, and Regina, who crumpled her toe, exposed her white teeth and mercilessly crumpled her face.

Even though her beautiful face was distorted with anger, it was like a piece of her, so I applauded her without thinking and looked at her. I guess I took it as her insult. She tore up her order book and shouted at me, pointing to the sky with a phirea.

“Yes, you have to keep acting like that so you can look forward to the moment when I cut your throat. Wait and see- your sailors, your comrades- I’ll slit everyone’s throat, no- I’ll slit their sinews and sell them into slavery. Are you excited just thinking about it? Her?”

-Peeing! Peeing! Piying!!!

The spell book was torn and the gathered mana clumped together in different colors and shot towards the sky.

Mana exploded like firecrackers to light up the darkening sky, tearing up the clouds that had settled in, and a chilly silence settled over the tumultuous sea.
