A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 36
5 minutes ago.
[I can serve you. I can obey you, Master.]
The answer that came back to Tie’s question about whether they could help her was concise and certain.
Tie’s contemplation didn’t last long.
“Then I need a ship right now.”
[…Anything that belongs to the sea god’s abyss. Anything at all.]
What happened next was, without a doubt, the most exciting and thrilling thing Tie had ever experienced in her life.
“Danzu…?”
“Commander King! What in the world is all this?!”
Tie gaped her mouth wide open among the people who were all calling out to her.
Something was slowly rising from the deep, darkly rippling sea.
What had initially flickered like the size of Tie’s palm soon fully revealed itself above the water with white foam.
“The Commander King is summoning a shipwreck!”
It was a tremendously huge ship that soared endlessly upward.
“It’s a ship of the dead! They’re specters!”
As the people said, dark soul-like entities were constantly moving about on the ship.
[Master.]
[Master.]
[Master.]
Tie gulped as she listened to the voices circling around her.
And she gave the next command to her new friends—no, her subordinates.
“Take Tie aboard!”
The empty ship without people creaked as it lowered a gangway.
Dark forms gathered around Tie as if guiding her way.
Tie hesitantly followed the spirits, then glanced back.
The people gathered at the pier were looking at Tie with astonished eyes.
Tie spoke carefully.
“Anyone coming with me?”
Naturally, no answer came back.
Tie shrugged her shoulders.
“Then Tie will go rescue them alone.”
The spirits appeared as dark forms to ordinary people’s eyes.
But not to Tie.
Tie could see the forms’ hair and eye colors.
What they looked like, where their faces bulged when they smiled, and where wrinkles formed.
“They’re good kids….”
Just as Tie was about to step onto the gangway as if it didn’t matter.
“Let me go with you!”
Marianne rushed out from among the people.
Marianne stood in front of the gangway, trembling as she spoke.
“I, I want to board too. I have to save Raul and Enzo, both of them….”
Tie looked at the magistrate with surprised eyes, then nodded.
“Yes!”
And she stepped aside next to the gangway, meaning for the adult to board first.
Marianne took a deep breath and stepped into the shipwreck where the dead were swarming.
It was the moment when rumors began that Agabert’s Danzu Commander King could summon not only skeletons but also specters from the abyss.
The ship of specters that Tie had summoned.
The so-called ‘sailing ship’ reached Mastone in an instant.
And it positioned its hull right next to the passenger ship that Death Hound had purchased.
“What the!”
Cal, who had been trying to kill Basto with his subordinates, discovered the shadow cast over his head and dropped his sword.
An unbelievable scene was unfolding before his eyes.
He stared blankly at the ominous hull flaunting its presence in front of him.
“Wh-what in the world is this….”
Every time the torn and tattered sails fluttered in the wind, sounds like ghosts crying could be heard.
The three masts supporting the sails were tilted as if they might break at any moment.
When something flashed past the cracked and hole-riddled railings, Cal unconsciously startled and dropped his weapon.
“Danzu! They say it’s the ship the Commander King is on!”
Recar, who had approached, shouted.
Cal asked back with a pale face.
“What are you talking about? How could the Commander King possibly get here!”
Before departure.
Worried that Agabert might set out to besiege Mastone, he had slightly damaged all the ships in the village.
Some had holes made in the lower hull, others had their ballast removed or damaged that would help maintain the ship’s balance.
Though Basto had quickly managed to save the last ship that Cal hadn’t gotten to touch, it didn’t matter.
He could just ram such a small ship with the ship he had purchased.
‘I judged that since only these two ships remained, there would be no reinforcements coming from land.’
The ship before his eyes boasted a much larger size than the passenger ship he had obtained.
It was so old and gloomy that it was puzzling how it could sail, but for some reason it didn’t shake even in the storm.
“It seems we moved too openly! We should have considered the fact that the Commander King could summon specters!”
Recar was in a state of panic.
His eyes shook unstably, and his complexion was deathly pale.
His hands trembled so much that the bracelet on his wrist repeatedly made metallic sounds.
“Recar!”
“We’re all going to die! We’re all going to die, going to die….”
“Recar, you!”
Cal, who had been shaking Recar’s shoulders, stopped. He had suddenly discovered something strange in his subordinate’s eyes.
Recar’s pupils had no focus.
Moreover, for some reason his body was gradually growing cold.
“…Recar.”
At that moment, something dripped from Recar’s hair.
Cal startled and pulled his hands away from Recar.
And he stared at the moisture on his hands as if he couldn’t believe it.
Recar’s body was soaking wet at some point.
The water dripping down his hair was very cold.
Cold enough to believe it was seawater from the depths of the abyss.
“No way….”
Cal hurriedly turned around.
Sure enough, the other subordinates who had been dealing with Basto were also scattered here and there.
Some were curled up on their sides, others lay looking at the sky, repeatedly saying the same words.
“Going to die, we’re all going to die….”
They all had no focus in their eyes like Recar, and their bodies were soaking wet.
“Damn it!”
Then someone’s shout was heard from overhead.
When he looked up with pale blue lips, he could see the Commander King gripping the shipwreck’s railing.
Dark specters were swarming around the Commander King.
“Our Basto uncle… no, Basto’s iron-clad supporter!”
A hollow laugh escaped at his broken pronunciation.
Before coming out to sea.
When he had heard that way of speaking at the dock, he had only thought it was ridiculous.
It was strangely irritating and annoying to that extent, just that much.
However,
“Around my sailboat flows the morning dew of the dead! Especially when it touches the Silent Abyss…”
The Commander King who had been speaking looked to the side saying ‘Have they gathered?’
Then one specter moved eerily as if saying something.
The Commander King who nodded looked down at Cal again.
“The cold energy of the deep sea will plant fear in your souls! You will be unable to move and meet those who have died!”
Cal’s complexion hardened.
His subordinates were not in their right minds now.
Especially, their bodies gradually getting wet without even touching water was chilling enough to give goosebumps.
[Be more afraid-]
At that moment someone whispered in Cal’s ear.
“Damn! What-!”
Terrified, he was startled and looked around frantically.
[-Yes, like that.]
This time a chilling wind blew in his opposite ear.
“Ahhh! Ahh! Get away from me!”
Cal shook his stiffened body and head like crazy.
Then he covered both ears and urgently turned his body toward his companions.
However, the place where his companions had been just moments ago was completely empty.
“…Re, Recar?”
Cal called for his companion while trembling.
At some point, cold water was also dripping from his hair.
Moreover, something had been crawling up him from under his feet for a while now.
“…Sa, save me.”
Cal was so terrified that he couldn’t even look down at it and just muttered.
Meanwhile, the surroundings gradually became quiet.
How much time had passed in the silence where even the sound of falling rain, waves, and the roars of monsters had disappeared.
“Sa, save me…”
[Cal Worven-!!!]
This time an ear-splitting explosion echoed through the air.
Cal, who was startled out of his wits, squeezed his bloodshot eyes shut then opened them. Something was coming into his blurry vision.
[Did you enjoy it? Were you satisfied?]
Someone was holding both his arms in a bizarre posture.
Blood-soaked clothing, skin covered in wounds, sunken eyes and cheeks.
[Driving my husband into danger, making us food for monsters too. I’m asking how it felt to be the only one who survived.]
…That was Eve.
Basto’s wife, and now a dead woman.
The woman Cal had abandoned in Ban-Anra Village when it was invaded by monsters.
Eve’s face suddenly came close to Cal’s nose.
Her expressionless lips gradually stretched to the side and soon tore wide open.
[Disgusting thing.]
“Li, Lilia…”
[You seem ready to suffer for my husband’s share, and our Lilia’s share too.]
