Chapter 271 Island With Unique Name
Chapter 271 Island With Unique Name
On a bright morning, Jesse was running along a stone path near the forest, where he got attacked by a wolf.
Not long ago, he was still scared to go anywhere near it, but now, he somehow felt a strange sense of calm and confidence and even felt like going to the forest to enjoy the nature around him.
However, he still wasn't bold enough to do that.
As he entered the large garden with lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and nice bush statues, he saw the servants busy tending to the plants and maintaining the garden's beauty.
"Good morning," Jesse said without being even slightly out of breath.
"Good morning, young master~" The servants said with all smiles, as they had gotten very familiar with this new young master of theirs.
At first, they thought he was just another spoiled rich kid after getting to feel the wealth of the Rothsmith family, but during their morning talks, they realized he wasn't a bad kid.
Morning was also one of the rare times they would be able to see him, as during the evening and night, he would be in his room, playing Martial Online.
After reaching the interior of the massive mansion, Jesse took a detour in the kitchen to get a drink, and as he saw a newspaper on the counter, he curiously checked it out.
The headline in the newspaper caught his attention.
[Warhaven - Safe Place or Heaven for Criminals?]
"Hmm..." With a drink of water in hand, Jesse read through the article and nodded thoughtfully once he was done.
'I expected this to happen. There is a large controversy about whether that place is really a safe haven or just a breeding ground for criminals.'
Jesse also saw that some of the players had received some kind of abuse in Warhaven. There had also been players who had joined gangs, and because of their experiences there, they had completely changed as people in reality as well.
'Well, I am currently abducted by a pirate.' Jesse wryly smiled and put the newspaper back down. 'This game has its light side, but the dark side is also quite overwhelming.'
...
As the black-sailed ship cut through the tall waves, Ambrose emerged from thin air in his cabin.
As soon as he appeared, he felt a slight tingling sensation on his forehead, coming from the black heart tattoo.
"Mgh..." Ambrose touched his forehead, his fingers tracing the intricate lines of the tattoo. "Is there really no way to break the contract? I wonder..."
After getting used to his avatar, which was vastly stronger and healthier than his real body, he stood up and sat down on the chair.
Then he brought out the Sky Fall with a swimming eye inside.
The eye was intensely looking at him, which was rather creepy.
'I wonder why she was called Red-Eyed Bonney.' Ambrose wondered. 'She doesn't have red eyes, as they are only special for vampires... well, Bella also has red eyes, which is a very rare thing to have.'
The eye impatiently seemed to look at him, wanting the answer right now.
"Sigh..." Ambrose sighed and said, "All right, I'll help you if you help me."
The eye shook left and right as confirmation.
"However, I am not sure how I can get you to your body. I am unable to leave Black Heart, and the only way that it might be possible is if Mars takes us to the island where your body is.
"Do you think that is possible to happen?"
The eye didn't move, as if it were really not possible.
"It is in the Sea King's territory?" Ambrose asked.
The eye shook left and right as confirmation.
"Okay..." Ambrose frowned and said, "We are currently heading there, but I am not certain where Mars is going or how far. Can you tell me where your body is, and I'll check out from a map where it is actually?"
The eye shook left and right.
"All right." Ambrose brought out the parchment paper, the jar of black ink, and the ink pen. Then he began reciting the alphabet.
After a short while, he saw an island name written on the paper.
"Breast Island?" Ambrose's eyebrow twitched. "Are you joking?"
The eye didn't move as if it were actually the real name of the island.
Ambrose rolled his eyes and destroyed the papers so that no one would be able to find out what happened in this room.
"I'll find out the map and check out where it is." He said and grabbed the pearl before saying. "For now, you'll go back to the inventory."
The eye furiously shook around as if it didn't want to, but Ambrose didn't listen and put it back in inventory.
After that, he buttoned his vest and walked out of his cabin, heading to the deck.
On the deck, Leon was still the helmsman. He was awake when Ambrose left for bed and was again awake when he returned.
'Does he ever sleep?' Ambrose wondered to himself.
Then, he saw the person he was looking for—Apollo, who used spyglass to keep an eye on the surrounding area as they were still inside Death King's territory and it was far from safe.
After climbing up the ladders to the crew's nest, Ambrose asked. "Good morning. Did something happen last night?"
"There was actually something." Apollo looked away from the spyglass and smiled. "We saw the ship of Death Entourage. However, they were clearly not a battleship, so they ignored us, and we ignored them."
"Oh." Ambrose wryly smiled. "They'll come chasing after finding nothing in Necro Village."
"They can't catch us." Apollo said. "Not when Leon is at the helm."
"By the way, does this ship have any map?" Ambrose asked, as he expected Apollo to know, as he had been here the longest.
"Yes, but they are all in Mars' quarters. Why?"
"Damn..." Ambrose sighed and said, "I need the location of one island in the Sea King's territory."
"What island? I might know it." Apollo asked.
Ambrose cleared his throat and awkwardly said, "B-breast Island."
"Pfft, what the hell did you say?" Apollo's mouth twitched as he wanted to laugh out loud.
"Yes, yes, it is as stupid as it sounds." Ambrose sighed. "There is apparently an island called Breast Island in Sea King's territory. I just need to know its location."
"I am not aware of its location, unfortunately." Apollo laughed. "Maybe you can purchase a map when we dock on some island, but don't get your hopes up too high. Maps of King territories are often rare."
'Maybe Bonney can somehow tell me, and I'll try to draw the map myself based on her words...' Ambrose frowned, as it didn't sound too good.
"Mars will never give you his maps if you plan to ask." Apollo said. "What's up with you needing to know anyway? Mars won't allow you to leave."
"I know, I just wanted to know something." Ambrose said and then left the crew's mast.
After reaching the bottom of the ladder, the captain's quarters door opened with a slam, and Mars stepped out.
As he leaned on the railing and saw the three men gathered on the deck, he shouted:
"Leon, go at full speed!"
"Where are we going?" Leon asked from the helm while taking advantage of the increased wind to speed up.
"To the Sea King's territory!" Mars shouted without fear. "We are going to war!"
Apollo's and Ambrose's expressions fell.
