Episode 10

Dreuk! Drrr!
When Ryan pressed the button, the control stick flipped over and a mechanical stick came out.
(Similar environment to the first steering.)
You can steer the ship by turning the rudder or stepping on the pedals without the need for mana induction.
Originally, it was a mechanical device that allowed ordinary people to steer when the helmsman needed a break.
“Uncle navigator. This is the correct map, right?”
“I don’t know anything else, but I’ll definitely organize the charts around here. There was only one helmsman before.”
Charts record not only land features, but also currents and winds.
Seasonally, of course.
“oh. then. for me.”
“Don’t be mistaken. It’s a habit.”
When the helmsman is resting, he can barely go straight.
Considering the fatigue of the helmsman, it is better to find the optimal route that reduces the helmsman’s hands.
“Then can I leave it to you?”
“At this speed, what… … .”
It is dangerous to change course suddenly, but move forward at low speed or move carefully about 15 degrees left and right.
The helmsman also often operates in this mechanical mode when out of combat or when the climate is stable.
If you use mana for a long time, your fatigue will increase.
In a way, Lian, who fought in mechanical mode, was great.
“It’s okay.”
Lian fastened the leather strap to the key with her dainty hand.
Sailors from other missions will take good care of it.
You may leave your seat now.
We are going to continue going straight to the north.
“Should I find a helmsman before a doctor… Uncle Vice Captain. Where is your mother-in-law?”
“Once they were put in jail. Are you thinking of getting rid of it now?! If you don’t want to be looked down on because you’re young, it’s good to set a clear example.”
It was just saying that killing is not enough.
“A lot of people saw him being captured. It is difficult to kill.”
The title of family murderer is really troubling.
Of course, since all the naval prisoners were released, there are no more witnesses.
However, they know that Count Leon’s wife was captured by pirates, and a scandal may follow later.
as the culprit for her disappearance.
“If you don’t execute them, their authority will be undermined. When authority is diminished, control is weakened.”
“You know, the vice-captain uncle. cadet. Seeing what happened, I can’t even dream of a rebellion.”
His face twitched for a moment, as if he had received a slight blow from the sudden attack on his face, then he turned his words around seriously.
“That alone has its limits. If the captain shows weakness, there will be people who depend on that weakness. I am always the vice-captain.”
Would you mind watching this? won’t you kill me?
It means that you have this kind of thinking in difficult missions.
Because humans are weak beings.
Revenge and corporal punishment are essential. as cruel as possible.
“I want to keep him alive.”
“Then you’re going to keep me in prison?”
It is also difficult.
Even if you save him later and take him with you, he might say some nonsense.
As soon as he became a count, his authority might be cut.
“That is also difficult. Now that things have turned out like this, I have to appease them somehow… … .”
Killing increases the pirate captain’s authority, and saving him controls the future county.
“It’s difficult to kill, and it’s difficult to just imprison. We specialize in that.”
“yes? no way… … .”
There is. way to appease.
This world is a world where magic exists.
Of course, there are also slave imprints.
The problem is that the longer you engrave a slave, the more your reason will be destroyed and its traces will remain.
In severe cases, the entire skin color may turn purple.
‘Then it’s more difficult… … ?’
“kid. I know what you’re worried about, but who are we?”
“ah!!”
If you ask which occupation is most closely related to slavery, it is, of course, pirates.
They usually only kidnap, but they don’t mind making and selling slaves if it’s money.
“Can I leave it to you? There should be no traces of engraving. And you have to stay sane when you eat Earl Leon later. I don’t have a normal personality.”
After imprinting, the trace spreads every time you rebel.
Of course, they can’t resist physically, and just having the thought of rebelling gives them pain due to imprinting.
As a result, the area around the imprint gradually becomes calmer.
If it overlaps, it spreads throughout the body, and if left unattended for a long time, it will not recover.
“It takes effort, but it is not difficult. My subordinates will like it.”
“yes?!”
Rian tilted her head at the eerie vice-captain’s smile.
“To engrave a slave, all you have to do is erase and engrave the spell all over the body. Fear comes first. I need to fix that damn personality first.”
“Anyway, can I trust you? I hope your mind isn’t broken. It is also useful.”
Ryan’s eyes twinkled.
* * *
Squeak!
Is it because the door at the entrance to the prison is thick? Even though it was a new ship, there was a metal sound from the door.
“Do you have any discomfort? second mother.”
“Do you think you’ll be okay with this?! The place you turned into an enemy is the Serang Empire!”
Ryan rubbed his ear with his cute fingers.
“So what? Obviously, the Duchy of Brittany is a different country from them.”
“Are you asking because you don’t know that? Didn’t you know that even your proud mother’s family is a degenerate of the Kingdom of Airy with no strings attached? They are just colonial nobles ruled by the Ingleson Kingdom.”
“Ah~ when did Airy’s kingdom fall? It’s just the Countess of the Ingleson Kingdom.”
Ryan really liked it.
The same goes for being the warchief (duke) of the former kingdom of Airy. It’s also the fact that the Ingleson Kingdom is a dog-dog relationship with the Thrang Empire.
“Immature. Yes, they are island nations. Did they seduce you to help? You can’t believe that, can you?”
Of course not.
If that was the case, there wouldn’t have been only two attendants in the first place.
He also gave up on the outside world.
I’m sure I’ll die soon enough.
“after… Liana. The Serang Empire is the center of Yul Continental logistics, the largest market, and an economic powerhouse. Wars are fought with money.”
“I know that the Ingleson Kingdom is not without money. Maritime trade has also developed.”
At Lian’s words, the Countess seemed frustrated.
“No matter how strong the Ingleson Kingdom is in the sea, it can’t sustain a war on the continent. you’re just a loser It’s just being used and thrown away. It’s not too late even now. If you release me, I can clear up the misunderstanding.”
I heard that the Countess is the daughter of a merchant.
It’s also quite popular in the Thrang Empire.
“hehehe. That’s why I’m coveted.”
Rihanna’s stupid words.
“what?!”
“It’s quite a way to turn the jjanggu. I think I can write it usefully.”
Being a pirate doesn’t mean looting unconditionally.
Even if you plunder, the unit of profit may change depending on how you dispose of it.
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Be my ally. I will become the pirate king.”
“Are you kidding me right now?”
“Are you kidding me? You’re going to be our ship’s accountant.”
“who… whoever wants… … .”
Maybe good words won’t be conciliatory.
While thinking about that, the vice-captain intervened.
“Looks like you need some professional help.”
“yes. I guess it should be.”
At the words of the two, the Countess blinked her eyes openly.
“Please take care of me.”
“after… Just in time, there was a guy on our ship who excelled there.”
At the words of the vice-captain, one skinny man slightly lowered his head.
“This is Big Johnson. You can just call me Big.”
I thought he was a prison guard from the beginning, but I guess he wasn’t.
A pharynx hung from his waist.
It seems to be a magical object with intricate patterns engraved on it.
Maybe that’s what puts a stigma on it.
Ryan approached him in a low voice.
“It is a talent, so please handle it with utmost care.”
Combatants are plentiful on pirate islands. Other professions are possible to some extent.
However, the three most difficult were doctors, priests, and accountants.
This was close to embarrassing common sense to bring a reason.
“Don’t worry. Captain. Would you like to see it instead?”
“no. I think from here on, minors are not allowed to watch. This body is still young, so I don’t think it’s good for emotions.”
People were heard outside the prison.
I could fully predict what would happen.
“then.”
When I went outside, the sailors were standing in line.
“Hey~ kid.”
Then, a sharp female voice called out to Lian.
I knew who it was without even looking back.
“sister. Where did you leave your respect? I don’t feel any respect at all for being called a kid.”
“is it? okay. My cute baby shark.”
“Ugh!”
“More than that, he was weaker than I thought. That’s what kept her alive. Rumors have already spread inside the ship.”
Certainly, pirates and nobles had different ways of thinking.
but. Those who live only for today can’t have the same thinking as the nobles who live for tomorrow or for generations to come.
“just. Would it be better to kill him… … .”
“no. I can’t do that when I’m trying to have some fun. what. It might be more painful for that aristocratic b*tch than killing him. hehehe.”
At those words, Ryan’s expression twisted.
“Don’t look at me like that. Homos*xuality is not a bad thing. I believe in Messal, the god of the sea. what. I am bis*xual.”
Even in the world Lian lived in in the first place, the standard of morality is not absolute.
However, it was even worse in this world where feudalism existed openly. In addition, even in religion, each denomination has slightly different doctrines, so morals and ethics are also very different.
“So I am looking forward to it. our baby shark Grow up quickly.”
At that, Lian took a step away from her.
The god of the sea allows not only homos*xuality but also ideal s*xuality.
The principle itself is the pleasure of the flesh.
That’s why they don’t consider lewdness a virtue and adultery a sin. He is an absurd god who regards innocence as a sin.
fortunately that. That woman with the missing screw is not a pedophile.
Tak-tak!
She tapped Ryan’s shoulder lightly.
“Move!! Guys! I am number one!!”
He savagely harmed the pirates standing in line and advanced.
After all, these pirates couldn’t be careless for a moment.
“Hoo~”
Lian came out on deck to catch the sea breeze.
My stomach rumbled.
It’s a game. cheat the game got into the game
Isn’t there a saying that a tragedy seen from up close is a comedy from a distance?
I saw people die. It was also indirectly killed.
It seems that the smell of blood rises.
So, in order to maintain my ego, I decided to look at myself from an outside perspective.
I decided to think of myself as a game character.
Of course, I have no intention of bearing the misfortune of others at a serious loss.
Maybe this world is really a game.
If you fail, you are the one who dies.
“Status window! Status window!!! What a state!”
Not even a damn status window. No divine being taught anything.
I might have acted a little more morally if I had given a word about this world.
“It’s the worst.”
To be honest, the difficulty is sky-high.
Clearing the 1st round without any buffs or succession was the condition.
for now.
“First of all, it is continental unification.”
After all, wouldn’t it be more fun to be a loser on the continent than a loser in a corner?
Thinking about that, the depression disappeared.
at that time.
“Ohhh!! also. young master. As expected, the lineage of the Supreme King!”
Suddenly, something attacked Lian from above.
“Ouch!! Ciri dangerously.”
“I liked the look on the young boy’s surprised expression.”
It feels like being attacked by a lion.
From a distance, this must be a comedy, right?
It’s probably not the first time Charlotte has pranked her like this.
Of course, I don’t have any memories left of Rian.
“uh… excuse me. By the way, do you see a dot on the sea?”
“Can’t you see? Stop playing around.”
“It is real.”
Ryan rubbed his eyes.
No matter how I look at it, I can’t see it… … .
