Chapter 50.5

‘You really are like Lock hyung mentioned. Yes, we will do our best.’ The children who said that they will work hard really did work hard. Maybe that was why, but Cale couldn’t help but smirk at Beacrox, who seemed to get more tired each and every day. Beacrox just stood there while the wolf children set up the table and then headed out. “Uncle, are you not coming?” The wolf children were bright and pure. They called Beacrox uncle and treated him like family. “...I’m coming.” The children headed out first after hearing his comment. All of them were dressed cleanly and had their hair well kept, as if they never lived in a remote village before. It was inevitable with Beacrox’s style. ‘Now that I think about it, he would be a really good babysitter.’ Cale avoided Beacrox’s gaze, thinking that Beacrox would come at him with his cooking knife if he knew what Cale was thinking about. Beacrox was living as a clean and respectful chef right now. He could not be cold to the wolf children. All he could do was glare at Cale every so often. Cale watched Beacrox pick up a fork and knife and start to leave the room as he started to speak. “Thanks for always giving me a delicious meal.” “...Yes sir.” Click. Beacrox left the room and closed the door behind him. Cale looked at the door and started to speak. “I don’t know why he is trying to do his dad’s job while his dad is gone.” There was no reason for Beacrox to bring the food to him. However, Beacrox was slowly doing Ron’s work at any chance he got. Sadly, this prevented Cale from being able to enjoy the gap left from Ron’s departure. The wolf children or Beacrox always showed up to take Ron’s spot. Cale looked toward the corner of the room next and continued speaking. “Come eat.” “Cale’s meal buddies, On, Hong, and the Black Dragon, rushed to the table and started to eat. Cale looked out at the sunset over the ocean as he leisurely ate his dinner. The next day. “Hello.” “Nice to meet you, young master-nim.” Cale exchanged greetings with an old man. This was a fisherman who had roamed across this Ubarr sea and battled against the whirlpool for tens of years. This old man, who was known as the greatest veteran of the Ubarr sea in this small seaside village, had a very tan skin that represented just how much time he spent out at sea. “Just trust me. I will safely take you to the central island.” Amiru, who was next to Cale, nodded her head and added on. “Right. He is an amazing individual, so you will be able to get to anywhere in the Ubarr sea as long as he is with you. I’m sorry I cannot go with you even though I’m supposed to show you around. I have some work to do.” “That is okay. It is enough that you have introduced me to an expert fisherman.” It would be complicated if Amiru went with him. Cale had already determined the people who would go with him today. The fisherman asked. “Is it just the three of you?” “Yes. Let us go.” “Yes sir. Please get on.” Cale got on the small but sturdy boat. The Vice Captain got on behind him. Since the Vice Captain will be with him, Cale did not need to take any other knights with him. It really shouldn’t be a problem though, since the islands were uninhabited. “Please be safe, young master.” “Got it.” Deputy butler Hans had On and Hong in his arms as he watched Cale off. The kittens On and Hong were flailing around, trying to get away from Hans, who was getting closer to the water. Although they liked the smell of the sea, On and Hong did not like water. - I will be flying. Naturally, the Black Dragon was planning on following them while remaining invisible. Cale joked with the last person getting on the boat. “Beacrox, apparently the nets near the island tend to catch a lot of rare seafood. It will be great to broaden your palate.” “...Thank you very much, young master Cale.” Beacrox, who ended up going with them at Cale’s order, got onto the boat with a stiff expression. Cale ordered the fisherman once everybody was on board. “Let’s go.” “Yes sir.” The fisherman, the captain of this small boat, started to row with his son. In this whirlpool filled sea, neither a large ship nor acceleration magic was important. It was safer to be with an experienced fisherman and rely on their years of rowing experience. “The boat may rock quite a bit, so please hold on tightly.” The old man casually announced as the boat departed. Cale started to curse soon after they left. “Shit.” The boat was rocking. The boat was just barely avoiding the whirlpool that seemed like it would suck everything in. The force of the whirlwind was rocking the boat a lot. Splash, rash. All sorts of water smashing sounds rang in Cale’s ears as the old fisherman shouted. “Hahaha. Young master-nim, isn’t the whirlpool grand?” The fisherman was a very courageous man. Cale pushed away the hand of the Vice Captain who was grabbing onto his clothes with a pale expression. He was feeling seasick. ***** TL: Yet he got shipwrecked...clearly didn’t survive the sea...(PR: Perservering = Survival)
