What Caesar didn't know was that from the moment he gave the order to set sail, Miguel had been watching him—until he and the Wind Fury had completely disappeared from his line of sight. Miguel stood on the beach, pulling off his waterlogged riding boots. As if to accompany the sound of the seawater pouring out of the boots and returning to the sea, the Wind Fury's sails billowed in the distance. Miguel looked up. Even though the ship was now far away, he could still hear the sound of the wind filling…- 221.3 K • Completed
- Miguel was exiled, and before dinner, Caesar organized a meeting with all the officers. The entire meeting proceeded as smoothly as any other. Caesar appeared to be the same Caesar as always—unflappable, not a single mistake or moment of distraction throughout the meeting. The officers of the Wind Fury exchanged silent glances, and for some reason, they all breathed a collective sigh of relief. The content of the meeting was kept entirely confidential. When Rick emerged from the meeting room, his…

- Caesar acted like a standard scumbag who abandoned his lover—he left right after finishing. The only remotely human thing he did before leaving was remembering to take Miguel down from the railing. Then, while the navigator was still weak and limp, he casually took out his handkerchief to wipe away the white, strange substance left inside him. At this moment, Miguel, in a very unromantic way, was reminded of the days when his younger brother was still a helpless child, squatting in the toilet and…

- Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. … Miguel felt that after living for over twenty years, he was about to end his short life. He hadn't had the chance to do many romantic things in his lifetime… But today, when Big Dog stared at him through the bars and invited this virgin to have a go, Miguel almost instinctively made a move without hesitation— He reached his pale hand through the gaps in the bars, grabbed the captain's collar, and pulled him closer. Then, their…

- "This is my empire, my power sweeps all, Yo—ho—ho— Who is singing the sailor's song? Yo—ho—ho— The mermaid's song echoes, Yo—ho—ho—" When it comes to things that are destined, Miguel could say with certainty that from the moment he first laid eyes on the Saint Monarch, he knew what destiny was—back then, he was still a young, inexperienced fisherman, led by the great Captain Big Dog to stand beneath that dark, ominous ship and gaze up at it. Miguel knew then that they…

- Caesar led the Wind Fury fleet through the thick smoke with ease. The Wind Fury seemed to have transformed into the most agile seabird rather than a massive three-masted galley warship, skimming swiftly over the sea's surface. Unaware that they had already been ensnared by the demon's hand, the British Navy, thinking the Black Sea Wolf's fleet was retreating, intensified their drumming and horn-blowing, closely pursuing them. Amid the artillery fire and the dense morning fog, even sunlight couldn't reveal…

- The sudden approach of a formal Royal Navy fleet caught the sailors aboard the Wind Fury off guard. The men's roars and the chaotic footsteps on the deck created a tumultuous scene. Without waiting for Caesar's orders, the gunners had already begun heaving the cannons out of their ports. Under the direction of the charge captains, the cannons were loaded, the sails were raised, and dozens of ships turned in unison, forming the most optimal formation for naval combat. The dark muzzles of the cannons…

- "I heard that you've been looking for us everywhere." Margarita still smiled as beautifully as ever, humming an unknown tune while absentmindedly braiding Margaret's hair into a neat plait. Caesar's sister remained just as Miguel had seen her last—sitting motionless in that armchair in the darkness, like a lifeless porcelain doll. "I found the Fountain of Youth," the man said matter-of-factly, his expression unreadable. Margarita's hands paused for a moment, and her singing ceased. "I told…

- Zhizhi was right. It was already early October, and as the scorching heat of summer was coming to an end, Miguel had thought they would at least enjoy a pleasant and relaxed autumn before welcoming the new year. But now, it seemed all those hopes had been dashed. The Lady Lovibond came and went like a shadow, and no one knew how to get in touch with them. Thus, Leoza, who had originally been assigned to return to Mermaid Harbor, regained the right to board the Wind Fury. Before the red-haired teenager…

- What the captain and the navigator needed most at this moment was sleep. Returning to the large bed in the captain's cabin, Miguel immediately grabbed a pillow and stuffed it under his head, munching on a piece of rye bread that the sailors had "dedicated" to the "captain's wife." As he devoured the bread, he said, "Do you feel like we just got married under everyone's blessings?" Caesar changed his clothes and wiped himself down, walking back to the bed and peeking over. Without a word, he took the…
