Chapter 723 Cap 721: For The Glory Of...
I was looking into the distance when Leo approached me carrying a padded beach chair, very reminiscent of those hotel pool chairs that need 5 minimum wages to enter.
“Master, you can leave my mother-in-law here while we finish cleaning the Ship.” (Leo)
“Thanks, Leo.” (I)
I place Freya in the chair gently, I was told to stay close to her at all times as my Aura helps her recovery.
I look around and see many Hobgoblins cleaning the floors, walls, and other things that were stained with blood with the help of some Fairies.
“Marcos is already organizing everything with his team?” (I)
“Yes, his wife is organizing the cleaning, Carla works really hard at work.” (Leo)
“I haven’t been paying much attention to them, how are they doing?” (I)
“I train sometimes with Marcos, his strength just reached SS Grade and that’s why he became a Vampire, he doesn’t have much talent for combat techniques.” (Leo)
“He is a ship captain, very talented by the way, I didn’t expect him to be good at fighting, his current strength is already good enough.” (I)
“I don’t think he agrees, he’s been training magic with Erica, he seems to respect him a lot for the way Marcos treats his wife.” (Leo)
“I didn’t know Erica was a romantic.” (I)
“I knew since she treats me similarly, she also really likes talking to my wife, but I can’t say if I like the things she teaches Caryna.” (Leo)
I can imagine the kind of thing Leo is talking about, but I won’t get involved. be𝚍𝚗ove𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝

A few hours later Marcos comes to me with a regretful face, I think something happened, he sits next to me while Freya is lying on the other side still unconscious.
“What happened this time?” (I)
“Nothing, at least not yet.” (Marcos)
“What’s it?” (I)
“We’re heading into a storm.” (Marcos)
I look through a window to see a clear sky and nice weather.
“Doesn’t look like it, the weather is great outside.” (I)
“The clouds are too far away to see, but the sea is already rougher and the wind is getting stronger.” (Marcos)
“The direction of the small waves and the wind is the same, in front of us.” (Marcos)
“It should be another 3 or 4 hours before we get to the storm.” (Marcos)
“If you noticed early, then we just need to deflect, right?” (I)
“It’s not that simple, the ocean currents are pulling us in that direction and to be seeing that reaction at that distance means the storm must be very strong, which could mean it’s too big, so we won’t be able to get away.” (Marcos)
“(Why do I have to go through this again?)” (I)
“Why does this always have to happen?” (I)
“That’s been the same question hammering in my head.” (Marcos)
“Actually I suggest forgetting about this stolen Ship and keeping ours, this ship is in terrible condition.” (Marcos)
Delirious of our time here I took a look at the Ship and it looked very nice, I didn’t see anything broken, nothing rusted and nothing I saw seemed to be done wrong.
“This ship has been patched up many times with parts that were clearly taken from other ships, Carla verified this for me after I ordered.” (Marcos)
“That ship wouldn’t be able to withstand a storm like the one we went through last time.” (Marcos)
“…” (I)
Sigh
“Make preparations, let the others know we’re switching ships in 10 minutes and everyone should head back to the Dungeon.” (I)
“It’s all right.” (Marcos)
———–
5 hours later.
I made a bubble-shaped barrier around me and Freya who is floating beside me still unconscious.
Changing the Ship was our best decision, the storm had arrived faster than Marcos told, it took less than 3 hours, besides this storm was something new for me.
“This is the first time I’ve seen this.” (Nix)
“It looks like a weaker acid than what Irina uses.” (Irius)
“She doesn’t use acid, she has a corrosion ability.” (I)
“In the end, the result is the same.” (Irius)
The barrier around the Ship was protecting the ship from acidic rainwater, but that wasn’t the only problem.
“Where are these 10 meter high waves of acid coming from?” (I)
“No idea, but Nira is going crazy with the amount of mana we’re spending on the ship’s shield defenses.” (Irius)
“My sister seems to be getting tired of speeding up the shield concert.” (Irius)
“But there’s nothing we can do, I can’t let acid rain hit the ship or deflect the waves, they always seem to come our way.” (I)
“I swear I just wanted a smooth ride.” (I)

Pov Andreia (Executor of Light):
After the attack on the Church of Light’s stronghold, the shrine was badly damaged and the true Hero who was being defended while unconscious was severely injured, his body and soul badly damaged beyond what holy magic would be able to heal.
After a hard investigation, we were able to find out that something connected to the Hero of Light was used to target this place, so the attack came towards him, but we still don’t know who did it.
But an oracle came soon after telling us to kill the Vampire called Zenos and the Celestina Traitor Athena, my sister.
It looks like my sister must have been controlled, it shows that she wasn’t ready for this kind of mission yet or she really is a traitor like Saint Vanessa.
“Lady Enforcer of Light?”
“Are the troops ready?” (I)
“Yes, I have been informed that the honor of leading our army has been bestowed on you.”
“Correct and we’re leaving now.” (I)
I will be leading 1,000,000 elite soldiers to march to the Dark Continent, the time has come to put an end to that heretic, the traitor saint, my little sister who brought shame to the family and that entire continent filthy with miasma.
I stop in front of the troops before starting our journey to the enemy.
“For the glory of the please God Baldr!” (I)
“For the Glory of Baldr!!!!!”
“For the Glory of Baldr!!!!!”
“For the Glory of Baldr!!!!!”
“For the Glory of Baldr!!!!!”
