Chapter 66 Out at sea. (2/2)

Back in his ht this shi+p down here survival would be difficult He had no underwater breathing spells on hi forback without a boat would probably be iuard to rescue people fro fro away but that wasn’t it Some of the sailors rushed below deck to man the cannons while others occupied the ones on the main deck He could see as the point of theeneet a better shot on it

“Wait fer it…”

Isabela was at the forefront of it She was grasping one of the ropes attached to the sail while leaning out from the shi+p After afor them He was surprised that the lookout was able to spot so like this in the distance

Soon the reen, a little bit back fro from across each other on the top, and two more of the same on the underbelly which couldn’t be seen yet

The ular-shaped, with a spherical, somewhat beak-like nose Above the nose were three eyes, each one set atop the other and red in color There were also tendrils and a few shorter tentacles dangling froed froe hly half of this shi+p, it was possible that if it took a bite of it they would go under Even a full slae to this vessel

The creature’s body shape was siated and had all of those tentacles At first, Roland thought that they were up against the fabled Kraken but instead, this was so fish

“Fire!”

Theher saber down This pro He could see the a nice arc towards the beast, soin Ai a shi+p like this

Roland expected the creature to put up a better fight but it couldn’t even get in range of the shi+p The cannonsbelly up while its blood tainted the water

The sailors cheered out loud while the people on the shi+p clapped It looked like there would not be any shi+pwrecking happening any time soon

“Helic if ye 'ave t'!”

Roland was a bit surprised at the crew’s next action He was expecting theo up to the monster’s crops and fish out its e one

Instead, they released all the sails and even activated soet out of there as quickly as it was possible He got the answer to why after a few ot attacked from the side by a massive set of chompers

Another sea monster decided to make a meal out of this fresh body It was smaller than this one but it wasn’t alone asover the food The sailors knew this and quickly escaped as the creature’s blood would attract other predators to the scene quite fast

After the whole thing was over Rolandskill while exa it He could see that it was clearly a runic weapon, from the runic structure he could tell that it was composed of common runes

It looked like it was similar to soic iteunpowder to propel the metallic cannonballs outside He could also see that there were mana stones involved in this construction Probably thanks to that even these sailors with low mana could fire these off

He didn’t think there was a problera else to do He just sat down close to it and started scribbling, he didn’t think that anyone here would have extensive knowledge of what he was doing Even then he could just say that he got inspired by the cannon design

The trip continued with more monsters andso into the water After listening in he discovered that it was soh to scare off the ser ones It was utilized whenever too many of the sly the voyage continued into the last day without a hitch He expected to be caught up in so out of nowhere Now they were close to Dragnis island and apparently, the larger monsters didn’t intrude too close to it

There was a large party the day before their arrival Everyone got drunk including the adventurers and the traveling guests He had enough sense to take it slow, the other people on the other hand were loud and obnoxious Isabela landed herself another boy toy who he saw leaving her cabin in the e look on his face, he could only speculate on what happened that night

Soon froh above a voice of a man hollered

“Land ahoy!’’

Roland walked over while narrowing his eyes and glanced into the distance He could faintly see so Soon a city port could be seen by everyone and the people got ready to diseoin' ashore soon”

Isabela ca like cheap spirit She was showing a bit ht’s encounter

‘I guess this is it, I should restock at the port and find transport towards the town of Albrook’

This was his final destination He hoped that he had ht decision and that the toouldn’t turn out to be a dud The quality of the dungeon was also unknown, it could be too new for adventuring or training

‘Well, anything is better than staying back in that city…’

He recalled Edelgard and hoas probably going through turmoil at this verythrough soht decide to leave There was no concrete proof that the noble did it but ruh to cause potential business partners to turn away

Roland shrugged as that wasn’t his probleenda, what he now had to do was to gain more levels and craft better weapons for hi to craft is a hot tub… I haven’t taken a bath in weeks…’

He chuckled while looking into the distance, the large lander as he waited with anticipation to disembark
