Chapter 46 Battle at Sea Part 1

The crossing from Cerulis to the island where the tournahts and one day had passed since the fleet had departed from Cerulis's harbor

Inside Daniel's cabin, Heiart and Daniel had spent the past day and a half talking, and beco acquainted with each other

Unfortunately, no le chance to interact with the fourth passenger of their cabin, as he seemed to move from his bed only when the three weren't present

During the secondcards on the small table within the cabin

Daniel had found a pattern within the interactions between the two cousins The gay and luck, but the truth, was that most of the tihts of hand

Although he would never cheat whenstreak hadleadershi+p between the two, instead of being a way to win s, but dexterity wasn't one of the for the older cousin's tricks, and ensure his victory To a point, where the younger cultivator had started to root for hieance for thedefeats of the past

The three played for the entire , when finally, it was time for lunch

The shi+p they had boarded wasn't thehall and a kitchen within the hold

Close to beco the cabin, Heioing to eat, want to join us this time?”

But as usual, he received no response

After the expected response, the three left their cabin They had been caught up in the ga hour a little too late Causing theh the many crowded corridors that separated their cabin and the dining hall

Hundreds of people packed the corridors tightly, and sloalked towards the dining hall in disordered rows

Many, in order to avoid the chaos of lunch and dinner tie, and eat them in the spacious deck

Daniel, was one of those people He had purchased many rations from the shops of the harbor, and had stored the in line for a bit in exchange of so ether

Unfortunately, they had underesti this late for the lunch

An hour slowly passed, and they still hadn't ed to leave the corridors with the cabins

Unwilling to wait any longer, Daniel looked at the two martial artists, and said ”I have soo eat on the deck?”

The two, sick tired of standing in line, quickly accepted the proposal, and made their way towards the closest exit for the deck

Finally out of that death trap, they inspired a large breath of sea air, then found a place to sit

Daniel took three wrapped sandwiches out of his spatial ring, and handed one to each of the two cousins

Once again, the three started to eat and chat peacefully, but before they could even start to relax, Daniel noticed a few members of the shi+p's crew run frantically to one side of the shi+p

They were all looking at soht behind the backs of Daniel and his two companions

With half of a sandwich in his hand, and his mouth still full with his last bite, Daniel turned around

Before he e warshi+p just a few hundred

Daniel looked at the scared expressions of the crew”PIRAAAAAAAAAATES!”

The ten shi+ps which traversed from Cerulis to the tournament's island, usually didn't have powerful cultivators on board

Each shi+p belonged to a different company, and aside from the weak crew and a decent captain, the only cultivators on board, where those who had embarked the shi+p to reach the tournament's island

On this warshi+p's black and tattered veils, one could see a white skull which held a knife in its teeth, and in its empty eye sockets there were red flaroup of pirates was known as bloody Sea Pirates, and was a vicious group which attacked the various shi+ps that set out froth wasn't high, but their expertise with navigating the seas had roup's captain was a pirate at the fifth rank of martial cultivator, and was known as 'The Red Painter' A name much more refined that its owner deserved

In the past couple of decades, hundreds of shi+ps had fallen under the hands of the bloody Sea Pirates, and not many had survived the encounter

After the first crew member shouted, a series of similar shouts resounded in the air, and a few e from the entrances of the hold

Daniel and his cabinwarshi+p

The pirate shi+p had no intention of sinking them, they would instead approach a shi+p, and board it They would then kill,and rob to their heart's content, before leaving

The warshi+p's target was, unfortunately, Daniel's shi+p This traverse for the tournament's island hadn't been the first one for the pirate's Captain In fact, he was fully aware that these shi+ps would be packed with cultivators, so he had decided to attack the least luxurious one

Their gains would still be great, even though notmasters and mistresses would be present on board, but at least, they had no reason to fear for any powerful bodyguard

Closer and closer came the shi+p, until the cultivators on board of Daniel's shi+p were able to see the multitude of cultivators on the warshi+p's deck They all had bloodthirsty expressions, and seemed to be ready for battle

The many cultivators within Daniel's shi+p weren't unprepared either After all, they had departed in order to take part in a co to the island, that would be a great shast them, the only calm person was Daniel
