“A Pirate?!” Angel and Shalem both exclaimed at the same time. They were surprised by her response. Angel always thought that Nausica was an officer that lead around troops, but the real response was completely contrary to his expectations.
Nausica is a pirate!
After a while, Angel calmed down, at first he thought the answer of “pirate” was quite shocking. But after thinking back, Angel unexpectedly felt that Nausica being a “pirate” was very suitable-
With a large number of men under her, coupled with her fierce skills, she is like the war reprimanded Yang Qiu who guards the rivers and mountains, lazy and s.e.xy when resting, smoking and drinking alcohol, but not to the point of indulgence.
Regardless of whether these three values are correct or not, this single person embodies them, Angel thinks that she is the stuff of legends. If a talented bard could write and sing about her tale, they might be able come and sing a brilliant epic.
Angel’s thoughts fluttered about, and before his picture of that world was finished, he heard Shalem shout, “You’re a pirate!”
Angel looked back again, and now Shalem’s expression towards Nausica went from subtle familiarity to extreme disgust.
“If it wasn’t for the circ.u.mstances, then this child’s view of right and wrong would be quite appropriate!” Angel thought to himself, and in this way, Shalem is indeed a person of interest that he can possibly be friends with; Angel himself does not care about whether or not she is a pirate. “Good” people are not necessarily good, and “evil” people are not necessarily evil. Angel prefers to measure the world with his own two eyes, rather than being led by prejudiced “rumors” about a “profession,” and their shackles to an initial impression.
But Angel’s demands on himself and demands on others are wholly another matter. Shalem’s dislike of “pirates” shows that he has a decent character, that is, if it is only coming from his prejudice towards her “profession.” It’s just that Angel still has his doubts. If Shalem really has such a strong moral view of right and wrong, and is also pure of heart, then how was he able to pa.s.s the Nine Bloodbath Cabins trial?
“Well, it seems that little Shalem has a problem with me being a pirate.” Nausica does not care about being hated by Shalem, but thinks this ‘childish’ temper of his is a bit strange, becoming inexplicably familiar, then inexplicably disgusted… … it’s very interesting.
“Pirates are not good people. They rob the people of their blood, sweat and tears, only giving evil in return.” Shalem stopped talking after and sat aside, caressing his long cherished book.
“It seems that you are still a child with a strong sense of justice.” Nausica joked.
Shalem did not look directly at Nausica, but still protested in a low voice: “I’m not a child. I’m already 13 years old.”
Nausica raised her brow: “I thought that the youngest among us was little brother Angel, or someone who could pa.s.s through one of the Nine Bloodbath Cabins, and should not care about these customs. I didn’t expect to meet… a little boy with such a strong sense of justice… if I remember correctly, aren’t you the winner of cabin three?”
Shalem was fl.u.s.tered for some reason when he heard Nausica’s question; Shalem didn’t seem to want to answer her question, but his upbringing taught him that it was impolite to not answer. After a while, Shalem just said, “That has nothing to do with you… again. Nothing at all. ”
Watching Shalem’s performance, Nausica could not help being stunned, and then she burst out laughing.
“Interesting, very interesting.” Nausica continued: “He’s more interesting than him now.” The word “him” refers to Angel.
“There are so many interesting people in the Duchy of Versailles, you and Sharon. Duni both are so interesting.”
Advertis.e.m.e.nts
“Sharon. Du… … how can you call her Majesty by her given name!” Shalem glared at Nausica with strong discontent.
“I didn’t mean to. Last time I had rose tea with her Majesty, and she told me to call her that.” Nausica shrugged while there was a sparkle in her eyes.
“You had tea with her Majesty? No way! … … wait, Nausica, I think I remember that name.” Shalem suddenly opened his eyes wide and said, “Are you the Lord of Blackberry, Lord Asbay?!”
Nausica nodded noncommittingly. “My full name is Nausica.Asbay.”
“Are you really Lord Asbay?! The legendary Lord of Blackberry who purged the dark reaches of the entire Blackberry Sea!” Shalem stood up with sudden excitement.
Hearing Shalem’s long list of t.i.tles, Nausica shook with non-existent gooseb.u.mps: “Haha, well, yes.”
“Great! Lord Asbay, I am your loyal admirer! I didn’t expect to meet you here. I am so lucky!” Shalem swept away his previous disgust, replacing it with eyes of joy, and professing his desire to wors.h.i.+p Nausica.
“Your justice has brought light across the Blackberry Sea domain, you have saved countless victims and are a true hero!” Shalem was brown-nosing… almost singing in the form of an aria. … no, in the form of praises.
“At first I thought your Excellency Asbay was a man, but I didn’t think it turned out to be a woman. I misunderstood you just now. You are a great person!” Shalem couldn’t wait to point out his mistake and profess his admiration for Nausica, fearing that if he were to not do so for one second sooner, it would leave him open to criticism.
Nausica had many avid suitors, but this was the first time such an admirer has looked towards her as an “idol”. She doesn’t know how to deal with this type of person at the moment.
After watching the play go on for a long time, Angel suddenly leaned over and asked, “What on earth did she do? To make your face changed so quickly.”
Nausica did not answer, but Shalem helped explain, using a lot of praises and rhetoric, from time to time mixing in a few words of flattery… after listening to Shalem, Angel finally understood where Shalem’s idolization originates from.
The sea of Blackberry was a dark source of chaos in the area, where many pirates had grouped, burning, killing and looting everyone that pa.s.sed by the domain, until the arrival of Nausica. She had spent three years with a fleet traveling from south to north in battle, fighting with her band of pirates through iron and blood, she suppressed the whole sea domain, cleaning up all the bad characters in the Blackberry Sea. Since then, merchant s.h.i.+ps from the nearby waters of Blackberry have had no more accidents, it can be said that all this merit can be attributed to Nausica!
“Well, as a matter of fact, I also collect tolls.” Being praised to the horizon, Nausica herself felt a bit uncomfortable and could not help opening her mouth.
“That’s different! Your excellency is a pirate. Isn’t it normal to collect tolls?” Shalem retorted.
Angel could not help laughing at Shalem’s remarks, what person can loathe a pirate one moment, and stand by that pirate the next.
As Nausica said, this Shalem is an interesting and wonderful person.
Of the two, one side touted praises about the other while the other side was uncomfortably receiving it, Nausica could not help wiping some sweat from her forehead when they finally finished their conversation. It was the first time she had been in such a difficult conversation.
At this point, Angel suddenly said, “By the way Nausica, what was the third cabin you were referring to?”
… …
After a while.
“Ah, so you’re one of the ones who pretended to be dead!” After listening to Nausica’s explanation, Angel couldn’t help laughing.
He was wondering how Shalem got through one of the Nine Bloodbath Cabins… he didn’t realize that one can pa.s.s through by playing dead.
“I’m curious. With your character, even if you pretended to be dead, you’ll have to fight someone in the end. I can’t believe you escaped without a fight.” Angel wondered.
“That man killed a lot of people, and he ended up almost dying and unable to kill me. That’s why I… …” As Shalem spoke of his experience, his voice grew lower and lower, it looks as if he had not yet fully recovered from the fact that he had actually killed someone.
“These days, I think of that day often. I haven’t slept day or night since that trial, and it’s only when I’m reading, that I truly forget what happened at that time. ”
Looking at Shalem’s small pale face, he saw that his dark circles were thick, as if he was wearing smoky makeup, Angel had previously felt it looked funny, but at this time, he felt an inexplicable heartache.
He hasn’t killed anyone himself, so he doesn’t know if he will be in such a negative mood, but he has compa.s.sion for how Shalem feels.
Angel pats Shalem on the shoulder and tried to comfort him.
Nausica was not used to such a low atmosphere. After looking at Angel comforting him, she changed the subject and said, “We each talked about ourselves. Don’t you want to say anything about yourself?”
The topic inexplicably returned to Angel, Nausica looked directly at him, Shalem also put away his low mood, and with curious eyes looked back at him as well. For them, Angel’s ident.i.ty is the most curious. Why doesn’t he have to take part in the Nine Bloodbath Cabin Trials? Why are the shadow servants so respectful to him? Even the official wizards on the Cloud Whale are very close to him.
Angel knew that they wanted to hear some answers, but he himself didn’t even know what Sanders valued from him, so he had to act ignorant and simply say a few words about his background-
“I came from an aristocratic family, I have only one brother, and no t.i.tle, but I am very happy, and my brother is kind to me. I have an enlightened Mentor, he taught me a lot of things, but he became sick, and in order to treat him, I had to do everything I possibly could to… … later, I came across a wizard apprentice, and in order to cure my Mentor, I set out on my journey to the Big 6 mainland. “
