History of the Greatest Estate Design - Episode 256

256fury. With sincerity in the song (2)

Cheonhak!

Waves full of thin ice crashed in.

With a bloody sound, it hit the side of the large whaling ship, the Peliconia..

The sailing ship, which had overcome numerous adversities and rough storms, tilted..

A splash of ice water splashing all the way to the top of the stern.

Captain Felipe, who was suddenly drenched, turned the wheel and shouted..

“port! battle!”

“battle!”

The captain's orders were delivered in an instant..

It was passed down through the deck captain's mouth to the oars below deck..

The back muscles of the oarsmen moved like waves..

A seasoned captain's gentle rotation of the wheel.

The huge hull slowly tilted to port..

The command of the furnace changed according to the degree of inclination..

“Port side! No hit, 1 hit in the 4th inning! Starboard side! 1 hit per time!”

“after! under!”

The breathing of the oarsmen and crew was synchronized to the same beat..

On the other hand, the tempo of rowing has changed..

The port side oarsmen pulled the oars once every four breaths..

The starboard oarsmen pulled the oars once per breath..

The changed movement of both oars helped the hull move more dramatically..

Hahahahahaha!

The front of the hull was tilted sharply to the left like an eel stirring the current..

The huge hull cut through the waves in an instant and made a sharp maneuver to the left..

Immediately after the Peliconia moved sharply to the left,.

Muscular masses leapt out of the sea one after another like dolphins..

But they weren't dolphins.

Bye! Okay! break from school!

“Wow!”

“I missed it!”

Muscular body soaked in seawater and shining.

Below that, the lower half of the body with scales and fins that brilliantly reflect light..

They were mermaids.

A brief moment soaring above the water.

Several mermaids looked at the Peliconia with awe..

It was a look filled with regret that the attack of conversion had missed..

But they didn't give up easily.

No, the attack started now..

“Sisters! Don't miss the intruder!”

“We protect our seas!”

“Break the keel in one go!”

As many as five hundred mermaids rushed toward the Peliconia..

From the depths of the sea, he waved his fins with all his might..

He rose rapidly with his incredible strength..

Attempted a body slam on the bottom of the Peliconia's ship..

Quang! thud! Teokkung!

Although the Peliconia was demonstrating rapid and flexible maneuvers, it was unable to avoid all waves of waves of mermaids..

Every time it was attacked like that, the hull shook from the shock..

The bottom of the ship let out an ominous roar..

Captain Felipe's complexion turned slightly pale..

Lloyd's expression became more urgent..

“No, captain.!”

Immediately after the mermaid army's all-out attack began..

Lloyd was frightened by the violent and sudden change in atmosphere..

I almost fell off the bowsprit and fell into the sea..

“sing! They say you can do it! All you have to do is put sincerity and sincerity in it.!”

The deck shakes with sudden maneuvers and mermaids’ body strikes..

He came back to the captain, almost crawling on it, and shouted and argued..

To be honest, it was really, truly unfair..

‘I told you it would work! All you have to do is sing with sincerity and sincerity.!’

So I did it.

I really put my whole heart into it..

I did my best sincerely, warmly, earnestly, and sincerely..

I want to save the Countess, Julien, and everyone else..

I want to change their fate.

So please help me a little bit.

It's not the enemy.

It wasn't even a trespass..

I sang with a heart full of earnestness and a feeling of reaching out..

“But why! Is this what happened?!”

Lloyd argued with an unfair sincerity..

But Captain Felipe turned around..

“no! What did I say to sing?!”

While he was busy turning the wheel, he shouted with a bewildered look in his eyes..

“oh my god! Don’t you know why this situation has unfolded? I told you to sing! With sincerity and sincerity!”

“It was! So I sang, didn't I?!”

“……That was a song?”

The captain asked, tilting his head as if to ask if he was sincere..

Those eyes were so serious and serious that Lloyd almost burst into tears..

The captain's factual violence continued..

“therefore! Instead of making such a weird noise that makes your ears bleed just by listening to it, you should have just sang a normal song! song! Why are you trying such a strange thing for no reason? Tsk!”

“…….”

“It's not too late now. How about trying to sing properly again??”

“…….”

“no! This person! Why do you keep crying without answering?!”

“…….”

If you're the captain, don't you think you'll cry?.

All of a sudden, I was being pounded with words as if every bone in my body was breaking apart in real time..

Lloyd wiped away tears with all his might..

And then I turned the topic somewhere else..

“……Tsk! I'm not going to sing! I'll have to use another way, so let's just escape like this.!”

At first, it seemed like it would be best..

Approach through the song suggested by the captain.

That way to open the mermaids' hearts seemed like a bad idea..

No, on the contrary, now that the mermaids' hostility had reached its peak, it seemed best to run away first..

‘After that, find another way. Really, really, if there's no way, we'll have to bring in Yongyong and invade the mermaid kingdom..’

If none of the methods work.

So in the end, if you can't become friends with mermaids,.

Rather, it seemed like a solution through overwhelming force should be considered..

‘But that's the last resort. For now, the priority is to jump safely..’

Lloyd looked at the situation anxiously..

Things weren't so good.

Boom! Quang! thud!

A ceaseless roar came from the bottom of the ship..

It seemed like the mermaids were trying to headbutt their bodies to make a hole in the bottom of the ship..

Every time this happened, the huge whaling ship shook with shock..

‘This is a bit fierce..’

Lloyd's expression darkened slightly..

It looks like a really bad situation..

I think it will even get worse in the future.

‘No matter how large a whaling ship is, there will be limits to how much it can endure..’

Originally, this sailing ship was a specially built vessel for hunting emperor whales..

In addition to sails, it was equipped with quite a few oars so that it could escape from a pod of whales while dragging hundreds of tons of corpses of emperor whales..

Thanks to this, he was able to demonstrate explosive mobility for a moment compared to his large size..

In addition, it has overwhelmingly stronger durability than ordinary ships..

Emperor whale struggling and resisting being hit by a harpoon.

This was because it had to be able to withstand the riots and counterattacks of that enormous size..

‘But the opponent is not good.’

It was a mermaid.

The undisputed leader in the underwater ecosystem.

An underwater tyrant that even the Emperor Whale is afraid of..

Isn’t that kind of being an army of mermaids?.

‘They say it has tremendous power. Did you say that his strength alone is comparable to that of top-level Orc warriors? Hundreds of those guys are rushing towards me... … If things continue this way, the bottom of the ship will eventually break..’

Of course, even if the bottom of the ship breaks, it will be able to hold out for some time..

It was originally a ship designed to withstand the Emperor Whale's counterattack..

It was built so that even if there were a few holes and flooding, the entire ship would not sink..

‘But if you're unlucky and the keel breaks,?’

Keel, the spine-like structure of a ship.

If it breaks, it's over..

Regardless of whether it is a bulkhead structure to block flooding or anything else, it will just be a sinking win..

But the problem was, those mermaids had enough power to break the keel..

‘Right now, I've managed to avoid a direct hit on the keel by showing off some amazing maneuvers, but there's no guarantee that this kind of luck will last forever..’

Lloyd looked at the situation calmly..

That's how bad the situation was right now..

‘Besides, there's really no way to fight back from this side..’

You can fight back.

Shooting a volcanic eruption underwater with a bell.

After inhaling seawater with a hamang, spitting it out all at once creates a whirlpool..

At the very least, you or Javiel can shoot blasts into the water..

‘but it's dangerous.’

Lloyd shook his head..

The mermaids would be in danger, not on this side but on that side..

‘You need to get help from them. But what if a mermaid accidentally strikes back and gets hurt? Then that's it. I'll just leave.’

From then on, we will truly become enemies with them..

Persuasion and requests all disappear in vain like cup ramen spilled on the floor of a convenience store..

‘Then there is only one way left.’

In the end, Lloyd came to the conclusion.

he shouted to the captain.

“Captain! How much longer can I endure like this??”

“Holding on, in what sense??”

“It means holding on without sinking.!”

“If you're lucky, it's possible all day.!”

“If you're unlucky?”

“1candle!”

“…….”

In short, it really depends on luck..

Lloyd said, gathering his wits..

“Then I will try to negotiate with them.!”

“Negotiation? In this situation?”

“Yeah, I don't expect it to work.!”

“I'll try to take my time?”

“As long as they listen to me, won't their attacks slow down a little? So when I start negotiating, from then on, you know.?”

“I understand. Rather than evasive maneuvers, escape from the sea area..”

First of all, escaping this area was the most important thing..

Then, the number of icebergs and drift ice floating everywhere will decrease..

This means the ship will be able to move freely without fear of collision or running aground..

You will be able to move quickly and with confidence, increasing your chances of escaping..

As expected, Captain Felipe, who was experienced, understood their intention right away and nodded..

A satisfied smile appeared on Lloyd's lips..

‘good. Let's do it.’

He went down the poop, relaxing the muscles around his lips and tongue..

I leaned out of the gunwale at the stern..

Ice water waves crashing in real time.

I poured my mana towards the bottom and shouted..

“excuse me! Mermaid sisters! Actually, there's one thing I'm curious about.!”

Lloyd's cries permeated through the crashing waves..

The sound even reached the ears of some mermaids who were rapidly rising to hit the bottom of the ship..

His shout continued..

“I know very well that I offended you by singing a strange and terrible song! So I'm curious! What should I do to make them angry?!”

Shall we… … ! Shall we… … ! How about……!

His cries spread louder, farther and deeper..

Finally, all the mermaids' attacks stopped for a moment..

Everyone's eyes were on the surface of the water..

Everyone paid attention to Lloyd sticking his upper body out over the gunwale..

and was angry.

“It's him!”

“that's right! That person sang earlier!”

“That's not a song! It was a curse using sound waves.!”

“Sister, my eardrums are still bleeding.!”

The eyes of all the mermaids in the sea burned brightly..

We need to catch that man..

Must be thrown away.

We must sew up our mouths so that we can never pollute the sea with dirty songs and noise again..

As such, the mermaid army has once again strengthened its mental armament with its burning anger and will to realize justice(?).

And then he launched an even harsher wave of attacks..

Well done-!

“……Ugh!”

An attack by a mermaid who suddenly leaps up and throws her fists.!

Lloyd fell backwards due to that sudden slash..

But it's already too late.

‘shit!’

The fist was flying so fast.

I could see the enormous forearm and shoulder muscles behind that fist..

I could clearly see the mermaid's burning eyes looking towards me..

Those were the eyes of a fearless warrior..

‘They're trying to kill me!’

But I can't cope.

Much greater speed and momentum than expected.

A fist coming up like that.

On the other hand, his movement of falling while trying to avoid backwards?

I couldn't feel so slow..

The moment he realized that, he was sure.

‘That's right.’

What happens if you get hit by that?.

At the very least, won't your jaw be fractured?.

‘If you're unlucky, you might have to eat only porridge for the rest of your life..’

I didn't like that.

But there was no way to deal with it.

Just momentarily extracting the mana from the mana heart.

At least I amplified my mana with a shabby mind technique..

All I had to do was raise my defenses so that my jaw wouldn't break..

‘Ugh, please!’

I hope it doesn't hurt.

He closed his eyes tightly, hoping.

But that was then..

To Cuong!

A strong crashing sound was heard just below the chin..

I opened my eyes in surprise..

Then I saw it.

‘Javiel?’

Before I knew it, Haviel was right next to me..

The guy was stretching out his hand.

He was blocking the mermaid's fist that was attacking him with his palm..

“Inhale!”

The mermaid, whose fist was blocked, opened her eyes wide..

I immediately twisted my whole body..

For escape?

It wasn't.

Wow!

A muscular tail thicker than a log swung towards us..

Wouldn't it be at least a whole body fracture if you just brushed against it?.

It was such an incredible force that it made me think..

But it didn't seem to be the case for Javiel..

“It's dangerous. Please step back.”

The guy stretched out his remaining hand..

I pushed this back..

And put your shoulders forward.

Shoulder and mermaid's tail collided.

And the mermaid jumped out.

two puck!

“Hehehe?”

The muscular mermaid flew dozens of meters away with a gasping sound. Fell into the waves. As if he wasn't seriously injured, he immediately swam below the surface and disappeared..

Only then did Javiel's gaze return to this direction..

“Are you okay.”

“……Uh, yeah.”

Lloyd nodded silently while shaking his butt..

As I unconsciously stroked my lower jaw, I got goosebumps belatedly..

Just now, a really big problem almost happened..

If it wasn't for Javiel, I could have suffered greatly..

‘shit.’

Lloyd was shocked..

I tried to take my time by trying to negotiate..

Even that failed.

‘I have to find a way somehow.’

Otherwise this ship might really sink..

Of course, you and Javiel will be able to escape on Komin's back, but many of Captain Felipe and the rest of the crew will be sacrificed..

‘I don't like that.’

I shook my head violently..

tried to find a way.

Even in that short period of time, the situation got worse by the minute..

Quaaaang! Creak, crack! Squeak!

slowly, little by little, but surely.

Every time there was a loud banging sound on the hull, a little annoying noise began to creep in..

“It seems like the hull is twisting from impact..”

Javiel also felt anxious..

If things continued like this, something big would happen..

‘If the ship really sinks, we'll have to save Lloyd first..’

No matter what happens, Lloyd must be protected..

Even if that person isn't real.

Since it has already become a pillar supporting the family.

That person is a fake who is more important than the real thing..

So I will definitely keep it..

no matter what happens.

No matter what absurdity you experience.

I will definitely protect and protect you..

So the silver-haired knight strengthened his resolve..

But at that very moment.

“Write it. I can't help it because the situation is like this. Javiel? We should do some fishing..”

“yes? Fishing??”

Javiel tilted his head at Lloyd's words..

Fishing out of nowhere in this situation?.

what does that mean.

Besides, how can you fish when there is no bait??

Eventually, the silver-haired knight had to witness it..

Lloyd lifts the rope effectively.

The smile shamelessly appearing at the corner of Lloyd's mouth.

And the extremely unreasonable proposal that is calmly made towards us..

“You, let’s take some bait. Still, since he's a grand master, he won't die even if he falls into ice water.?”
