They came out from the Treasure Cove, and Luka approached them. "Are you guys alright?!"

Zeke smirked and took out the Poseidon's Bell from his inventory. "We got it."

Luka glanced at ut for a moment before he looked back to Zeke. "Still, are you okay? You fought a strong-looking monster back then."

Zeke was a bit moved that Luka thought about his friends before the object, but he nodded. "Yeah, it was hard, but after a couple of tricks, I won."

The little hero sighed in relief and smiled. "So that is the Poseidon's Bell?"

"Yeah." Zeke put it back on his inventory and dusted off his hands. "Now it's time to go back at Iliasport and get the fuck out from here."

And so, the party traveled back to Iliasport. It was late evening, and little by little, everyone was going back to sleep to work from the next morning. However, Luka located someone who looked ready to travel, and that looked competent enough.

"Excuse me… We'd like to take a ship to the Sentora continent." Luka asked to the person that looked like a captain.

The guy laughed and said. "Haha! You must be joking, young boy. You know what happens to any ship that leaves here, right?"

Zeke took out the Poseidon's Bell from his inventory and showed it to the captain. "If you hang the Poseidon's Bell at the bow of the ship, it should be alright."

"...Don't be ridiculous. If such a dirty bell would let me avoid storms, I'd be rich."

"But… *Sigh* I'm too tired to continue this type of conversation. Alice, you are good at magic, right? Do something."

Alice sighed and said. "For this time I will do it, step aside."

Alice pushed Zeke and Luka out of the way and got in front of the captain. He got a cheeky grin on his face and said. "Ohh… What a fine woman. If it's you, I can give you another type of ride."

Alice extended her index finger on the spot between the captain's eyes, and her eyes glinted a bit.

"You want to take us to Sentora continent."

The captain's eyes turned blank and repeated. "I want to take you to Sentora continent."

Alice glanced behind to Zeke and Luka with a smug face. "See this? I can make him say whatever I want. Ahem… You like sucking dicks."

"I like sucking dicks."

"He believes it too!"

"Ugh…" Zeke started to get weird thoughts from this situation and felt disgusted.

Alice deactivated her hypnosis, and the captain's posture got straight. He turned around and shouted to his crew. "Oi! You all! Pack up your fishing stuff and get ready for departure!"

His crew was surprised at his decision and almost let drop their stuff.

"Eh…? Uh… Ro… Roger!"

The sailors began to hastily prepare the ship. As they worked, Alice proudly said to Zeke and Luka. "Haha. These are the eyes that powerful beings have. Using them I can charm, confuse, petrify, or cause someone to faint at my will."

"That's awfully convenient…" Luka commented, while Zeke whistled in surprise. "That's a lot. Thanks for the help, by the way."

"Hmph, don't get it wrong, it is because I don't want to deal with this type of argument, too."

Meanwhile, the captain patted Alice's shoulder, remove his hat, and said. "We're ready to depart! Please board!"

One of the sailors in the ship yelled out. "Captain! Where are we taking these people? Who are they, anyway?"

"You idiot! Watch your mouth in front of these fine people! These fine travelers are… Who again?" The captain turned back to the party with a curious look.

Alice snorted and slapped the captain's hand away from her shoulder. "It doesn't matter, let's just board."

And so, they were able to get a ride to Sentora continent…

…

Now, it was night, Luka went to sleep, while Zeke was forced to train once again. Wielding Angel Halo with one hand, he faced Alice.

"That's right… Stabilize your upper body, step forward with your sword…"

Zeke kicked the ground and approached Alice, who ordered him again. "And now quickly thrust at me as I showed you."

He stomped the floor, anchoring his feet on the wood, and pushed Angel Halo to Alice, who blocked the attack with a scimitar she got from one of the sailors, charged with dark magic to avoid that the weapon breaks.

Zeke straightened his right arm, which was holding Angel Halo, and instead of pushing with his arm, he pushed with his feet, putting the strength of his entire body behind that attack

However, as always, he was unable to make Alice move an inch.

Alice pushed Angel Halo away and said. "It wasn't bad, you need to try that in actual combat now, instead of just sparring."

Zeke nodded with gratitude and sheathed Angel Halo. Meanwhile, Alice gave another history lesson concerning the technique.

"It is said that Bloody Fernandez mastered this technique, and covered the battlefield with her bloody thrusts. Using this Blood Fissure Thunder Thrust technique, she killed her enemies one after another, making a lake of blood."

"Yeah… I'm just going to call it Thunder Thrust, it feels better."

"Do whatever you want… Anyway, I'm interested to the Immortal Blood you recently got. Who is this 'Evil God'?"

Zeke understood what Alice was asking. In this world, there are only 2 gods, Ilias and the Dark Goddess Alipheese. If someone who claims to have something regarding a third god appears, things will get weird."

"Well… The entire story will be quite long, so I will just talk about the Evil God. He is called as such because of something that happened between him and another entity, but as I said before, the Evil God's Immortal Blood is far from completed.

There are 6 beads called Evil God's Seeds, and if one of them will be absorbed from the Divine Veins inside me, I will gain complete immunity to the element the Evil God's Seed represented, such as fire, water, lightning, air, earth and darkness.

Then there is also… A special ability connected to it, you can call them 7 gates, I can open the first one, increasing my power, but it also consumes my stamina by a lot. Unfortunately the last 2 gates are locked, and to unlock them I must talk to the Evil God's wife about then. Due to these restrictions, it is ranked as B."

After a long explanation, Alice nodded in understanding. "So he's just a person you guys call Evil God? I see…"

Zeke's eyebrows twitched. 'If she knew what he truly was…'

Technically, the Evil God is much higher in ranks and power than Ilias. Ilias was a self-proclaimed Goddess of Creation who was just the incarnation of the light energy in the universe and found this planet.

However, the Evil God had absolute control over 6 out of 7 elements, unable to control light, and also legitimately created a world that was as big as a small star, earning the title of Creation God instead of calling himself as such.

*Splash!* The loud sound of water slamming into the ship snapped out Zeke from his thoughts, he turned around and rushed towards the border, looking down.

A storm appeared in full power out of nowhere, trying to take down the ship.

From the bow of the ship, the Poseidon's Bell glowed with a soft ethereal light, and the ship didn't move of a single inch in front of the storm.

But…

Zeke glanced at his side and opened his Quest list.

[Pirate Lord of the Sentorean Sea: Someone threatens your voyage? Bring your sword and flintlock and kick the threat out of your ship, Jack Sparrow. Reward: 50 Bonus Points, 1 Super Spin, Title: Pirate Lord.]

"Goddammit, here she comes…" Zeke sighed and turned around, preparing Angel Halo. He put Pumpkin away because he was nowhere near to safe to use that gun.

He didn't want to destroy the ship with the Imperial Arm, and it would be annoying on his back if it was useless.

Behind him, the storm vanished, and a pair of hands lightly hugged him from behind. "Hello~!"
