263. Turn turn turn turn

The sea surface of Starfall Sea No. 13 Subarea was ablaze with lights from the large luxury magical mechanical ship.

Melodious music wafted from the mansion atop the opulent ship, intermingled with the cheerful laughter and chatter of young men and women.

A few wizards from the Mantas Family took flight from the sea near the ship and landed on the corridor at the edge of the upper deck.

"Sir Bower, we have searched underwater, and there is no sign of deep sea demons," one of the Mantas Family wizards reported respectfully with a bow to the lean old man in front of him.

"That deep sea demon must possess considerable intelligence. Having noticed the numerous sailing ships above the surface, it might have already left this subsea region," the wizard who lingered in front of the underwater cave earlier suggested.

The old man referred to as Sir Bower was skinny and short, with a pointed chin and small eyes perched above which were round glasses.
