Chapter 263 – 3. Dongju in May (0)
Shoot it-
The sound of seagulls chirping could be heard, but quite high waves came in, but the white whale did not show much shaking.
Is it because the ship’s no-world center is too extreme? Even if placed on land, the weight of the white whale is concentrated in the lower part of the keel and ribs to the extent that it would stand tall like a crow’s nest.
Even so, the atmosphere of today’s sea was definitely not unusual, so Nuri, who would normally be fishing, was looking around now.
“Come to think of it, is that function that controls the ship completely unusable outside the ship?”
“Huh?”
Yuria, who was manipulating her interface, turned her head to look at Noori at her words.
“This?”
“Yes”
I thought it was a really strange method, but since Nuri had been with YuRia for a long time, she was used to it to some extent and was able to see it without difficulty.
However, she didn’t seem to have used it when she went out to town before, so Nuri asked.
“It can be done outside the ship, but only within 50 meters from the ship?
But, is the cedar tree a common tree?
It is a very precious tree even in the era of Yuria.
In this place, it is monopolized only in the royal palace and the temple, and there are very few things that are released on the general market.
In fact, cedar wood, treated as a strategic material, was a treasure worth calling.
“Come to think of it, if you can handle the ship freely, you can also know where the ship is going, right?”
“Ah”
Yuria immediately investigated the route.
“Huh?”
Yuria, who had been doing some research here and there, tilted her head.
“Why is that?”
“No. Until now, the route was mainly northward, but the direction has changed. Southward.”
Floating a huge map of the continent in the air, YuRia made several manipulations to display the ship’s route on the screen.
“At this rate, would you like to go around the continent and enter Hudson Bay?”
Let’s see, our kind dragon king wrote down the name of this place.
When I looked at the map now, the former name was Hudson Bay, I broke into a cold sweat.
“This isn’t some kind of powder keg…”
Not only are there four countries surrounding Hudson Bay: Qing, Yuan, Ming, and State. If you expand the range a little, there is a small continent that seems to have been created by fragmenting the islands northeast of the former Canadian territory. Shouldn’t it be a very large island rather than a small continent? Since the standard of the continent is based on the Australian continent, it should be considered an island. … No, if you think about it, are those standards applicable in this era and in this world?
“Nuri. Do you see the land where the Kingdom of Gold and Won is located as an island and as a small continent?”
“Divided into small continents”
“Mmm”
Come to think of it, the standard of the island was also Greenland, right?
It seems that Greenland is also among the targets of the islands that seem to be fragmented.
According to Yuria’s standards
A continent larger than the continent of Australia.
An island smaller than Greenland.
But this place is bigger than Greenland?
“It’s a small continent”
“Is something wrong?”
“No, nothing”
It’s bigger than Greenland, so it’s not an island.
In the dilemma of not being land because it is smaller than Australia, it is a continent by the standards of this era. Yuria, whose dilemma was resolved, felt uneasy about something, but decided to move on.
Anyway. Small continents, including Hudson Bay, which were created by the fragmentation of Greenland and its surrounding islands in the past, are also clustered in front of the vicinity. It was a crazy sea where the interests of seven countries collided.
My head hurts already just imagining what will happen here.
I decided to think later about the things that hadn’t happened yet, and checked the map again, and the route itself was ultimately heading towards the Ming capital.
“Uh, um”
Is it impossible to display the final destination other than the route?
“Methuselah. Can you possibly access the final destination?”
It’s right on the screen! A red flag was planted in one place on the map.
Yuria, who saw it, groaned for a long time, considering the changed coastline and distorted shape of the continent due to the sea level rise.
Yellowstone National Park?
No.
It’s a bit subtle.
YuRia, who had been thinking about her for a long time, thinking about it again and again, struck her palm with her fist, feeling something about her as if a light bulb had turned on in her head.
“Devil’s Tower?”
It’s ambiguous, but the area seemed right.
Why did she think of Devil’s Tower? Yuria suddenly thought of Yggdrasil.
And the singularity of a kingdom came to mind.
Beyond one, there were two of them, three or four on the surface of the world. Wouldn’t it be strange to have more than that?
She actually used to think that while she was looking at the records of Earth in the past, she was looking at the data about Devil’s Tower.
It’s like the fossil of a very large tree.
Considering that this world is a world where various mysteries are abandoned and time is entangled, it would not be strange to have the world tree in the place of Devils Tower.
“What was the name of the world tree in the Americas? No, no…”
Considering that East and West have been reversed, is it a building tree?
If Devil’s Tower is really the world tree, it would be…
“Come to think of it, was leadern mythology like that? The sky was so low that the gods lifted it up with trees.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but the name of the World Tree in Ming is Geonmok.”
What did Yuria say to Nuri? She did and she looked at Norie.
Seeing Nuri talking while looking at the map, it seemed that Devil’s Tower was indeed the World Tree. The name fits the subject.
“I thought it was a tree, but it really was a tree. Is there a World Tree in the Northeast Continent?”
“Yes. It has the name Dohwa, but I have never seen it.
In fact, even after coming to the West Continent, the fact that Nuri’s position became so huge was all thanks to Yuria.
If it wasn’t for that, it’s Gache’s world tree. He couldn’t even dare to see Yggdrasil.
In any case, the white whale was going round and round to the south, leaving a precarious distance from which the coast of the empire was barely visible.
* * * * * *
Visor! Conductor!!
The surroundings were filled with the sound of metal against metal, shouts and screams.
The darkly discolored deck was already covered in blood, and in the midst of already fallen soldiers and pirates everywhere, the young man threw his spear at the pirates who swung his hatchet at him with all his might as he had been trained.
Pooh-!!
“Knock it off…”
With the terrible feeling of the tip of the spear piercing the skin and intestines vividly transmitted to his fingertips, the young man trembled and shook the pirate with all his might, fixing his grip on the spear again.
He had to come to his senses.
Didn’t he emphasize it over and over again at the training center? He said he would die if he didn’t kill him.
The opponent does not wait for time to calm down the shock of the first murder.
Especially if the opponent is a ferocious pirate like now.
Aww!! Big Hag!
Visor! Chaejaeng!!
The young man, full of excitement and fear, gasping for breath and constantly looking around, found another pirate.
He wanted to throw the spear as hard as he could and felt the terrible feeling of the spear point piercing the pirate’s stomach deeply and tearing through the intestines.
I wonder if the pirates aren’t dead yet!! I screamed and rolled back and forth, but when the ally, who was almost killed by the pirate a moment ago, speared his chest, Kkok! And slumped in agony.
“Cheer up everyone! We’re almost done!”
Hearing the general’s sound of encouragement, the young man once again exchanged glances with the unknown comrade in front of him, grabbed his spear again, and stepped forward.
It wasn’t just words, in fact, there were far more allies than pirates around, and at first glance, it felt like the sound of spears and knives colliding with each other was getting less and less.
“This shit!! Kkeaaak!!”
Filled with the excitement of winning the battle, the young man, forgetting the shock of the first murder, stabbed and killed one of the pirates who was floating on the defensive, unable to regain his senses, and looked around in search of the next pirate.
And I saw it.
He was on his way to winning the ship he was on, but the situation was not so good for the ships of other allies around him.
“General! Another ship’s ally!”
“I know!
Visor! Kagak!!
The situation that once collapsed out of control could not be reversed, and as soon as the final pirate was stabbed to death by an ally’s spearhead, he immediately began to turn the ship.
The war situation had not yet collapsed in the other ships, but as the young man’s ship headed toward the friend’s ship, which was put on the defensive, the young man, who was tensed as he grabbed the spearhead soaked in blood in the battle that would continue, jumped at that moment and comforted himself. What about the huge shadows cast? And looked up.
“What, what is this!?”
“Huh? Huh?”
Chaeng from all sides! Conductor! The sound of spears and swords colliding began to fade away.
The sudden appearance of a huge ship made me feel as if I would be intimidated by its appearance.
This huge white ship, which appeared without any sound so that no one noticed when it appeared, slowly came in between the ships, and even the pirates. Navy too. Everyone stopped moving.
Now that each other can’t tell which side this ship is on, it’s just that the pirates and the navy have stopped. The navy recognized that the pirates were not on each other’s side, but they were very embarrassed.
A third force that confidently intervened in the middle of this battlefield in the midst of extremely high attrition as they fought each other was not very welcome.
The naked beauty, no, the beautiful young man who jumped off the ship, with a greater desire to leave this place as it is, looked around with an expression that did not match the atmosphere of the place.
“I’m asking just in case, but the one with the blue collar is the Navy, right?”
At that point, even the pirates. We couldn’t answer either.
Why are you asking that?
“What is your purpose?”
“Is there a reason for helping those who met bandits?”
At that, the general shouted in a desperate voice.
“Boo, please help! Now this ship is fortunate to have succeeded in driving out the pirates, but the situation of our other ships is not good!”
“Okay. Then”
The red-haired young man fluttered her hair, sniffled, and jumped toward her most pirate-ridden ship.
The pirate, who had not been able to come to his senses until then, panicked at the sight of a naked young man jumping over the unbelievable distance at once, and hurriedly raised her spears high toward the young man, but in the end it was impossible.
The young man’s sword swung silently, and the pirates’ swords were like millet. No, even the sound of metal hitting sorghum cans was cut and fell, and at the same time, even the bodies of the pirates began to fall apart.
The red-haired young man, who had already left the spot before the pirates’ blood was spurted out, started flying over the ship like the wind, picking out pirates in an instant and slashing them.
Really huh? In a very short time, the ship with the most pirates was organized, and when the young man jumped up without a sound, the pirates began to fall into confusion.
“Go-goo!! Why the hell are you in a place like this…!”
“Ouch! This. It’s coming this way!”
Knowing that the scene from earlier was useless, the pirates hurriedly raised their spears and swords and aimed at the falling red-haired young man, but the result was the same as expected.
The pirates, who were cut into pieces along with their weapons, collapsed in a bloody storm, and the pirates, without even reacting, began to be cut into autumn leaves by the young man’s sword.
The pirates of the other ships who watched the scene panicked and did not know what to do, and quickly threw their weapons from their hands.
“Ha. Surrender! Hang Bo-ok!! I will surrender! Please save my life!!”
Is it because the majesty of youth is so great?
Even though they knew that the end of the captured pirates was the death penalty, they eventually chose to surrender.
At least if they went to jail, they could live until the sentence was executed, but if not, it seemed obvious that they would all die here, so the pirates hurriedly began to surrender in order to live a little longer.
At that, the young man smiled shyly and put his sword into the scabbard.
It was only now that I could see it, but there was not a single drop of blood on the young man’s sword.
“God, it’s amazing. Is this the power of the masters of Moorim?”
“I learned a little martial arts, but I’m a westerner”
At the young man’s words, people say eh? And looked at the young man in bewilderment.
Just now. Even though you show such great confidence, you are not a Moorim person?
Is that also a westerner?
At those words, the general looked at the huge ship that got in the middle of this naval battle again.
The pure white beautiful geoseon had a certain western style when I looked at it again with a spare time.
However, for some reason, it was too late to recognize it at a glance because it also had the food of the East without knowing it.
After being absent-minded for a while, the general commanding the boat the young man landed on had hurriedly bowed with regret.
“Thank you for your cooperation. The fleet was able to be safe thanks to the great cooperation. How should I repay this favor?”
“It’s not a big deal. If it’s a conflict between countries, maybe it’s natural to help someone in trouble in other places.”
At those words, the longevity sighed in relief.
That said, this ship would not have been involved if a local war had unfolded, although it was unfortunate that many people died.
“I am a member of the military. Although I cannot provide much help, I want to repay this favor. Is there anything you want?”
The young man seemed to be lost in thought for a while at the words, but then he glanced back and looked over the boat.
On the boat, a very beautiful blue-haired girl looked down over the railing with her head poking out.
“Yuria. What should I do?”
“What if I go out in style and then wake up in colic…”
“Haha…”
The blue-haired girl jumped off the high boat in disbelief.
Everyone was surprised and worried about the girl, but it was for nothing.
Tak-!
As soon as her feet landed on her belly, her legs and body bent, letting her shock flow away, and the girl, who landed, straightened her hair and moved toward her young man.
“I’m sorry. My husband is immature.”
“Ah, that’s right, husband… Husband!?”
Everyone eh eh eh!? And looked at the little girl.
All the soldiers doubted their ears at the words that came out of the mouth of a young boy who seemed to be about 10 years old.
Husband… You’re my husband…
Haha… Kid.
“No, I became like this because of circumstances, but this person is my wife. Originally, she is not that short compared to me.”
At the young man’s words, people are ah? I looked at the girl again.
At first, I thought she was just a small child, but looking at her again, the lines on her face were the same. The same goes for a body that is overly voluptuous and mature for a child. And the expression on her face was by no means that of a child.
“Ah…”
“What the heck…”
Among people, at some point, the girl became a woman with a small body due to some kind of evil witchcraft.
Seeing that he landed lightly from that high place with that small body, he must have been an outstanding master.
“Then Daehyeop-nim was on his way to get rid of the enchantment on me?”
“You’re right”
“Ohhh… I see. In that case, why don’t you come to our kingdom?”
What did Roa and Yuria say? And looked at each other for a while.
“I don’t know if it will be of great help, but I would like to be of some help in finding a way to get rid of the enchantment on me. Please.”
“Oh, it probably won’t work. I already got help from the White Dragon Gate, but it was useless.”
“Speaking of White Dragon Gate…?”
For the general, the name Baekryongmun was the first time he had heard of it.
“It is a sect famous for its Seon method in a kingdom called the East in the West Continent.”
“That’s right. I’ve heard a lot about Han Kingdom. Even in that cruel West Continent, you can see the spirit of the East… Kuhmm! I’m sorry.”
No matter how you look at it, they had red hair and red eyes, unlike the people of the kingdom, who had dark hair and black eyes like them. The blue-haired, blue-eyed two were never from one kingdom.
In other words, he quickly recognized that he was a Westerner who had slandered him for being cruel, and immediately stopped talking and apologized for his mistake.
Just just. Roa and Yuria were bitterly silent in a different way.
Even though it’s Roa’s hometown, it’s true that Yuria suffered so brutally as he said earlier.
The meaning of what he wanted to say would be different, but even so, Roa and Yuria couldn’t help but feel bitter.
“Would you like to try something like this?”
“Is that so?”
Roa easily answered YuRia’s words and nodded his head.
And a little girl named her wife, no. At the words of the woman who had become a girl, she followed the young man so easily that she broke out in a cold sweat.
If you are a captain, you should show a more dignified appearance…
YuRia just let out a sigh at the sight of those around her.
I didn’t want to go out because of this, but really Roa…
It is the desire of a wife to want to show only her husband’s wonderful appearance to the people around her.
Even if you try to make it look great, you ruin everything.
“Fool…”
“Why not…”
“I’m more stupid because I don’t know that”
“Ugh…”
YuRia leaped and fell into her loa’s arms.
“Let’s go back to the White Watch”
“Huh”
Loa, who obediently embraced Yuria, jumped up on top of that high white mirror.
