“How long are you planning on staying here?”

Bud Illis plopped down on the deck and looked to the side.

He could see someone standing as still as a giant boulder.

‘…I didn't expect something like this to happen.’

Bud's expression turned odd.

Ron Molan was the person standing as still as a giant boulder.

There was also one other person next to Ron. The Mercenary King had received information about this person a few days ago.

Cale’s strongest knight.

Choi Han, the youngest sword master.

“Mr. Choi Han is here, so why don't you go inside, patriarch-nim?”

Bud could see the old man with a cold expression that no longer had the benign smile on it start to speak.

“Shut up. You're being too loud.”

‘Loud?’

The Mercenary King let out a sigh.

It was quiet on top of this ship.

No, it was absolutely silent.

Even still, Bud’s quiet voice was not enough to be considered loud.

However, Bud shut up as Ron ordered.

Glenn Poeff. His mage friend motioned to him with his eyes.

‘Are we going to leave them like this?’

Bud started to speak again after seeing the gaze.

“Wind Island.”

The Three Restricted Areas.

The island itself was not visible because of the roaring winds.

It did not allow anyone to easily approach the island.

However, people still knew how living beings died by this island.

There was a simple reason for it.

“Anything that dies in Wind Island will have its corpse fly out along with the wind.”

Not even breathing could be heard on top of the ship.

Bud closed his eyes.

Swoooooooooooosh- Swoooooooosh-

The sound of the wind could be heard.

One week.

Bud thought about the things that happened this past week.

The first three days were decently calm. Cale's group started to get worried once it reached the fourth and fifth days.

‘Why, why is the human not coming out?’

‘Something’s weird!’

‘Something's very very weird! It is super weird!’

Bud recalled the endless concerns of the children.

And today was the seventh day.

Bud raised his head.

He could see the ocean that held both Wind Island and its twin island. It was a place that was covered in fog over 360 days a year.

Bud had not seen the night sky of his hometown in a long time. It was a night with a new moon, however, the stars were shining brightly.

‘…It looks like I made an amazing friend.’

Well, the friend himself was amazing, however, the friend's group was even more amazing.

Back on the sixth day.

The people who had been sharing their concerns, walking around without knowing what to do, or slowly started to stop speaking all started to move.

Wind Island and the twin island next to it. The night sky around the two islands had been clearly visible.

It was because the fog surrounding the two islands and the ocean had disappeared.

“…Amazing.”

The silver kitten had pushed away the fog around the island.

The black Dragon caused some wind to appear to help.

The black Dragon, silver kitten, and the red kitten were all observing Wind Island from the night sky.

Swoooooooosh- Swooooooosh-

They were looking at the island even though Wind Island was still covered in wind and nothing was visible.

‘It is fine because I am the great and mighty Raon Miru! You two don't know about this, but this Dragon life of mine has been going on for six years! Over half of that was living in pain! This is not painful at all! Don't stop me! I will destroy everything!’

‘I’ll still eat well, rest well, and just sleep a little less to wait! It is not hard at all compared to when my sister and I were alone!’

‘…Don't stop us.’

The children were extremely stubborn.

Of course, even the three of them went to eat and sleep without any complaints when Ron or Beacrox told them to go.

“…It is so bright.”

Something was shining in Bud's eyes.
