“Uweeeeeek!”

Hermione shed tears. Azin looks at Hermione, who grabs the railing and wrinkles. I can't believe you're getting seasick. I didn't expect Hermione to do that, so I had no way of coping.

“.. are you okay? ”

I'm just worried about it. Hermione, who has been vomiting for a long time, has barely regained consciousness. He lets out his hand and sighs, leaning down against the ledge helplessly.

“Damn it."

Hermione sighs and mutters. He himself did not know that his stomach was this intoxicating. I didn't get seasick when I rode the wagon.

“I've... never been on a boat before... and I never get on one.”

Hermione said, wrapping her pale face in her hands. Gracia is a continent. Most of the territory leads to the Warp Gate and is a commonplace island around the hemonian Empire where swordsmen rule. There are no other small islands, but there are also warp gates installed on those islands.

In other words, they do not have to board the ship. Hermione quickly rises to her feet as she feels turned inside out again. Eww! You scuttle toward the running sea, grabbing a handrail. Since you have already eaten everything, all you get is yellow gastric fluid.

“.. do you want me to call a wizard? ”

“Well, that's good. He's barely drunk.”

He bluffs like that, but Hermione's face is pale like a corpse that would die right away. Azin kicks his tongue small and looks at Hermione. It's only been a few hours since we left ‘Polas’ in the west port. The sea route to the Kingdom of Gallios is expected for a month.

Well, you'll get used to it.

I was starting to look like that from day one, and frankly, I was worried about the future. Azin raises his head and looks forward. I see a fleet of tens and hundreds beyond the bow.

150 on the front, 250 on the back. 400 ships in total. 150 of them are on the front lines, with half of the Grecian 300,000 Navy in command of the first fleet commander, Marquis Belegor. The 200 ships carrying the army and knights are commanded by Grand Duke Jared, commander of the two fleet, and the 50 carrying supplies are commanded by Grand Duke Viral, commander of the three fleets.

There are 40 admirals who put those three on their heads and deliver commands to each of the ten ships. Another 400 captains giving orders to each ship. The Navy was that big at the moment, and the Army Gun Commander, the First Field Commander, the Commander Portia, and the Second Field Commander Remford. And 20 masters in each division. A knight, an officer with the rank of an officer.

And the Emperor and the Emperor.

This fleet was no exaggeration, even if it was a moving country. The Emperor's own war. The emperor fearlessly boarded the flagship 'Rebecca’, the flagship of the fleet, the Marquis of Belegor. If the Grand Sherrifa shows up and shoots Bress, he'll sink without a second thought.

“You look like shit. ”

A voice suddenly approaches. Azin turns his head and looks at the direction in which his voice was heard. A handsome man tucks his golden hair up neatly and frowns, looking this way. I know this face.

2 Prince Alcide von Gracia. Hermione's older brother. The ship, ‘Janis’, is ridden by all four of Gracia's princes, including Hermione. For safety reasons, not only the Crown Prince, but the palace wizards Muren and the Pentagon's five stars are aboard this ship.

Azin takes a step back and lowers his head slightly. Alcide gave such a fierce look to Azin for a moment. The Galpagos Earl, whom Ajin humiliated, was a nobleman supporting the two princes, and apparently remembered the matter as a grudge.

“Brother. ”

Hermione turns her head to a pale face. Alcade looks at the slippery liquid soaking Hermione's lips and wrinkles all over his face.

“Aren't you ashamed? ”

“Simple seasickness. I can't help it.

Eww! Hermione turns her head again and vomits toward the sea. Alcide sees that Hermione and shakes his head, kicking his tongue. Azin looks at the arcade, looking at the man standing behind him.

An Arcade escort knight. He gives a slight funeral when his eyes meet azin. I thought I'd try to argue, but it's my first day, so I won't have to cause any trouble. Azin is next to Hermione, and Alcide looks at the azine and wrinkles his glabella.

“Do you think I'm gonna kick that idiot's ass? ”

“You can't possibly think that. It's just...

“But, what? ”

“Please don't call my prince a fool. ”

Asin's answer lit up Alcide's eyes. He openly shows hostility, revealing his teeth.

“What's wrong with calling a moron an idiot? ”

“It's a conspiracy to call a person a fool, not a fool. ”

“Ha! What a shocker. The training is very good. You're gonna bite me if my master doesn't tell you to? ”

“Why would I bite His Highness? It's not a dog.”

Azin smiles and says hello. Alcide's face distorted, and his escort steps forward with an untidy look on his face. To be honest, I don't want to fight. You could have lost if you fought. And so was Ajin. Not because I saw the colors, but just because I didn't want to get into trouble.

“.. for the first time on a boat. ”

It was Hermione who opened her mouth. He takes a big breath and leans back. Azin took the handkerchief out of his arms without a word and handed it to Hermione. Hermione rubs her mouth and looks back at Alcade.

“That's it. I think you came because you're worried about your bad brother. You took a bad step. I'm fine, so just take care of your body. ”

“That's presumptuous.”

Alcide spits it out. Hermione grins as she looks back at the railing.

“The ocean, isn't it? I've seen the ocean a few times, but I've never been on a boat before. The sea... The first time I saw it on a ship, it was so vast. My chest feels open. The first time I've seen so much, I feel like my values are changing. ”

The sea is wide and I feel good, so I look closer. That's a long speech. Azin glances at Hermione smiling with a pale face. The face of the arcade was flattered to understand what it meant. He pressed down on the boiling stomach and shouted to Hermione.

I was furious with something creepy and coming, and I stepped back. The Arcade's escort knight turns to look back in amazement at him.

“... Your Majesty? What...?"

“Bar, what was that? ”

Alcide stutters and asks. The escort knight tilts his head. It's like pouring ice water down your spine. Terror like that, where the whole body hair stands still and the toes freeze. Alcade glances around and glares at Azin, smiling at him.

“Yes, you...! ”

“What's with you all of a sudden? ”

Azin looks at me and asks, "I don't know anything." Alcade shudders and turns his head. “Knng!” He stretches his feet out loud, and the escort knight tilts his head to follow behind the arcade.

“... what did you do? ”

“Just, I was a little surprised. ”

Azin bows his head to Hermione. Hermione glances at Alcide's back, smiling deeply at Azin's words.

“I feel a little braver being with my lord in the ear. ”

“Have you decided? ”

“What?"

“Swinging a sword. ”

Azin smiled and asked. Hermione clenches her fist without answering for a moment. “I would have told you then. I had already decided,” He muttered so loudly and swallowed his breath.

“Oops!”

I turn my head to the pushing vomiting. Azin sighs and looks at Hermione, vomiting. Just a moment. Azin flinches and looks back.

“Can I help you? ”

Rich black hair splashes in the wind. A woman in a pale purple robe smiles over here. The purple star of the Pentagon. Azin looks at her with a tense face.

What is it?

I did not feel the resolve. Obviously there was no one, but she had naturally interfered with the pain senses as if she had been there from the beginning. The sighing Hermione turns her head to look at the purple star.

“.. do you...? ”

“Asylla Felide. It inherits the magic of the Ride School and is called the Purple Star of the Pentagon. ”

Purple stars greet Hermione with graceful gestures. Hermione nods her head with a shivering face. I heard the introduction before boarding the ship, but I was distracted by the intoxication.

“With help... magic? ”

“That's all I can do. Of course, it's for the Crown Prince's body, and there's no danger of that. ”

Purple stars smiled and said. Hermione was in conflict for a moment. I don't want magic help. I thought I'd get seasick and get over it. However, since I repeated the painful vomiting several times, I couldn't help but feel that pride. Hermione glances at Azin.

“Wouldn't that be okay? ”

Azin speaks. Hermione nods slightly and looks at the purple star.

“.. then. Please."

At Hermione's words, the purple star came to Hermione with a big smile. Ajin takes a few steps back to examine the purple stars. I was a little surprised, but I don't feel much like it. Just a woman who could be anywhere.

‘No, it's more of a camouflage. ’

The Pentagon's five stars are close to the Master Mage. That kind of thing doesn't emit any power outside? Of course, that's reassuring. It's because they say they're rebellious, and they tend to make their internal affairs completely invisible to others.

‘But I feel different from the other five stars. ’

Unlike Müren, their magical abilities can be confused, but not so much as they can feel anything like a purple star. She was like...

‘It's transparent.’

I feel like I'm looking at an unspoken window. While Ajin was looking at the purple star, the purple star grabbed Hermione by the wrist. Her lips sparkle.

It was at that moment that a part of the magical power of the purple star that was completely hidden was opened. Ajin takes a step back, stunned. At first glance, the magical power of the purple star was so deep that the end could not be seen. It felt like I was looking into a black abyss, and the pain's internal air responded naturally to the threat.

"What the hell? ’

Press down on the wriggling internal air. YoungChang finished quickly. The purple star placed Hermione's wrist. Hermione looks down at her hands, a little surprised.

“This is...”

A moment ago, the seasickness that had shaken his mind disappeared neatly. Upside-down speed and dizzy head look as if they were awake. Hermione opened her mouth halfway and looked at the purple star.

“I'm an expert on spiritual magic. ”

I smiled widely at the purple star.

“Think of it as mild hypnosis. ”

“.. can hypnotism cure seasickness? ”

“I just didn't want them to notice. It's not completely gone, so be careful with your meals for a few days. Because if you get rough food in your panic, you'll get blistered. ”

“Well, I see. ”

Hermione nods her head with a shivering face. “Thank you.” Hermio bows slightly, and the purple stars take a few steps back and bow deeper.

“I was just a little skillful. ”

The purple star said so and retreated. Ajin stares at the distant purple star's back with a tense face.

Maybe it's the mood.

It felt like her shadow was moving freely.
