White Agate, the next day.
Captain Irwin, who was fair, looked at Benjamin and asked again, "Are you sure you have searched all of them?"
"Really! I've really looked for them. It's as if they both disappeared suddenly."
"…"
Alvin's face was uncertain, and he had some guesses in his mind.
As Aldridge's former comrade-in-arms, he had agreed to do Aldridge a favor long before the White Agate set sail - firstly out of comradeship, and secondly because he did not want those women to get into trouble on his ship.
Oh, I just hope that those two people... are not going after those women. After all, one of them is Gehrman Sparrow, and the other is a "big shot" who has some kind of relationship with the mysterious queen.
Alvin shook his head and walked away.
A moment later, two figures walked out from the gap in the spiritual world.
One was wearing a silk hat and a black dress, had bronze skin, was of medium build, had black hair and brown eyes, and the other was wearing a simple black uniform, and his originally short hair had grown to his ears.
It's Azik and Priscilla.
"Thank you, Mr. Azik."
Priscilla thanked Azik obediently.
Azik smiled and walked to the edge of the deck to look out at the sea in the distance.
Priscilla tapped her forehead at this time: "How is it, did you find it?"
The mark of the gate to the underworld appeared on her forehead, and along with a gust of wind, Medici, wearing blood-stained black armor, appeared.
He frowned, looked around, and sniffed: "Not sure, she must have used some method to cover up her breath. We have to get closer to know."
At this point, Medici glared at her with disgust, "It's all because of you, stupid girl, that I'm dragged down by this!"
Priscilla immediately pinched her waist and said unconvincedly: "Do you believe that I will ask Mr. Azik to send me back to Backlund now?!"
"you..."
Medici was furious, but he didn't say anything after talking for a long time.
"Okay, I'm a burden to you, okay!"
"Hey, that's more like it~"
Priscilla waved her hand proudly, "Come on, I'll take you to find it slowly."
"Hahahaha! Medici was subdued by this girl."
"Is this still the same Medici we knew?"
"Hahahaha, how pitiful."
Soren and Einhorn were the first to jump out and taunt.
Medici folded his arms and snorted, "How about I let one of you control my body? Let's see who dares to disobey her?"
"…"
The two old guys fell silent immediately.
"Stop talking nonsense. Don't go through so much trouble and still let someone else steal your chicken. That would be a real shame!"
"That was you who did it. I was sleeping at the time."
"I'm sleeping too."
"So it's you who are disgraced!"
Medici: "Fuck!"
At this time, Azik, who was looking into the distance, suddenly saw a black shadow appear on the blue sea in the distance.
It was a black sailing ship with a black tulip painted on its pale white sail and the hull was dark black with a hint of green.
A glimmer flashed in Azik's eyes, and he vaguely sensed something. At this moment, the sailboat suddenly changed direction and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Azik murmured, "There seems to be something very important to me on that ship."
He glanced at Priscilla who was looking around, and finally gave up chasing after her to find out what was going on.
...
Cecil Port is a relatively small port on the Raging Sea. It was one of the bases for the early Loen fleet to stop and replenish. Unfortunately, with the construction of the two islands before and after, Damir Port and Bansi Port, it was gradually kicked out of the mainstream route. Only some small passenger and cargo ships would stop here. ~5¨2,s′h?uc*h,e^n¨g`.+c`o′m¨
If things had continued like this, this port might have been completely abandoned in a few years. However, the "Attack on the Governor's Mansion" incident that happened in Bayam some time ago forced a large number of pirates to leave Bayam and disperse to the surrounding islands. Unexpectedly, Cecil Port was reborn because of this.
Early in the morning, people in the port were still busy preparing to go out to sea. Travelers or pirates who got drunk in the bar the night before were still living a life of drunkenness. A young man with a black cat on his shoulder jumped off a small wooden boat and arrived on the island.
After Edward finished teaching last night, he decisively killed all the pirates.
That is to say, on the second day of sailing, more than a hundred pirates quickly graduated under the influence of Edward's knowledge and headed for the other side of life. His progress in digesting the potion also successfully moved forward, which can be regarded as a great harvest.
After a night of tossing and turning, Edward was quite tired, so he checked into a hotel and rested as soon as he arrived on the island.
I slept until the afternoon.
Edward was awakened by the aroma of barbecue. As soon as he sat up, he saw Lilith squatting in front of a small oven, roasting two mice seriously. From time to time, she would pick up some spices with her hands and sprinkle them on, looking very busy.
"…"
The corner of Edward's eye twitched. No matter how adorable a child was, once she did something naughty, it would be a headache - making a fire and barbecuing in a hotel. No one knew what she was thinking.
At this time, Lilith looked back and said, "You're awake. Miss Lilith's barbecue is almost ready."
Lilith picked up a piece of roasted rat meat and smelled it. "It smells so good. Come and eat it."
Seeing her face full of expectation, Edward was silent for a few seconds, gave up the idea of educating her, and took out a gold coin and threw it: "Eating this piece of roasted rat meat is harmful to me."
Numbers facing up indicate a negative.
Well, I've rejected the little girl's "kindness" so many times, so I'll just eat with her this time.
Edward walked over and sat down next to Lilith, took the roasted rat meat she handed him, and took a bite with his eyes closed.
Then a strong meaty aroma filled his mouth. He immediately opened his eyes and exclaimed in his heart: This thing is actually quite delicious - she must have been secretly practicing roasting mice for some time.
"Wow!"
Lilith was so happy that she danced with joy: "Edward finally ate a mouse. Edward finally ate a mouse with Miss Lilith~~"
Today is the most memorable day for Miss Lilith!
"I told you! Rats are the most delicious thing in the world!"
After saying that, she took a bite of the roasted rat meat and ate it happily. However, she soon raised her eyebrows and looked down at the roasted rat meat in confusion: "Huh? That's not right."
Edward wondered, "What's wrong?"
"It feels... not as delicious as before."
Lilith looked at the roasted rat meat hesitantly, then smelled it and licked it - it still tasted the same, but why did it feel not as delicious as before?
"Maybe your piece is not baked well, try mine."
Lilith took it and took another big gulp. Her face slowly wrinkled: "It's still not right!"
"Could it be that... the species and quality of the mice are different?"
"No, they are all the same."
The little guy was so anxious that he was running around in circles. "This is so strange, why is it like this? It's obviously the same mouse, cooked the same way, why, why does it feel not as delicious as before?"
Edward's mind was stirred at this moment, and he thought of a possibility: Perhaps it was because she had been promoted to Sequence 7 and turned into a human? Transforming from a cat into a human was not just a change in form, but a change in the essence of a creature.
There are huge differences between the habits, preferences, and tastes of cats and humans.
Take the example of cats' love of eating mice. From a scientific point of view, this is because mouse meat contains taurine, which cats cannot synthesize on their own. This substance directly affects the health of cats.
So Lilith's previous love for eating mice might not have been simply due to taste preference, but was also influenced by this aspect?
Although this change in taste is a kind of "evolution", Lilith obviously does not want this kind of evolution.
Seeing the little girl staring blankly at the roasted rat meat with a lost and confused look, Edward immediately hugged her in his arms with heartache, "Okay, okay, it's okay, maybe it's just because... the sea has affected Lilith's taste."
"Really?"
"real!"
She blinked her eyes and said, "Woo woo, but Edward finally ate rat for the first time, but I don't think it tastes as good as before. I just feel so sad."
No wonder Christine said that being human would make one unhappy—
How can you be happy when even rat meat is not the most delicious thing in the world?
Yes, Lilith actually guessed it: all this was related to the fact that she had become a human being, just like a few days ago when she discovered that the steak, lamb chops and even bread she ate were much more delicious than before.
Why--
Edward was so stupid that he thought there was something wrong with the rat meat or the place where he ate.
No, Lilith must pretend that the mouse tastes as good as before, so that Edward won't worry about me.
Lilith made a decision secretly.
"Edward, I suddenly think rat meat tastes good again~"
Chapter 386 What's the Use of You
Edward was surprised: "Really?"
"real!"
She nodded repeatedly. "Also, did you notice that Miss Lilith didn't feel seasick during this boat ride~"
"Yeah~ That's amazing!"
"Yes!"
Edward couldn't help laughing when he recalled how cute and pitiful Lilith looked when she first took a boat.
