Chapter 32 - The Battle Ends Another ship was rocked by explosions. “How…fearsome.” Sakuya was looking at the pirate ship going down in flames, her face paler than usual. After slaying all the pirates on the ship we’d boarded, we were observing the surrounding vessels. Of the circa 200 ships that composed the pirate fleet, more than half had already sunk. Before our eyes, another large ship was keeling over, dragging the smaller ships around it to the depths of the sea. “Who would have thought…

Chapter 39 - Seeker of Salvation 【POV: A certain country’s minister】 “What a bizarre question. Is it strange for a pirate to engage in acts of cruelty?” “No, that is not what I…it seems to me that…you do not take pleasure in torture, governor.” Carefully picking my words, I finally asked the question that had been weighing on my mind. During my tenure as minister, I have had the chance to witness the darkness lying in the hearts of many men and women. Among them, there were those…

Chapter 33 - The Man who Fled and the Insolent Messenger In a small town located to the north of Brutos… The governor put in charge of the port town of Brutos, who had abandoned the city out of fear of the pirates’ attack — a man named Baraquemo Lant — was positively delighted by the good news. “Ooh! Really, is that so! The pirates’ attack has been successfully thwarted?” “Yes, all the pirates who landed were either beaten back or captured. The rest fled back to the…

Chapter 34 - The Charlatan’s Dance House Asbart, another powerful faction in the Sapphire royal court, boasted authority and influence on par with House Maynast. Eager for a chance to undermine the position of their rival, they would readily set up Baraquemo as a traitor. “Kh… you dare…!” Baraquemo tore up the accusation letter, rolled the pieces in a ball and threw it on the floor. “Oh dear, did you really have to go and make a mess like that? Well, a copy was already sent to House Asbart, so…

Chapter 35 - Battle by Day, Battle by Night One week after the Lion Kingdom pirates’ raid… I was still in the port town of Brutos, watching it be slowly rebuilt. The battle against the Lion King crew ended in a complete victory for our side; most of the pirates who landed to attack the governor’s palace were either captured or killed, and more than half of the 200 ships that formed the fleet had disappeared under the waves. The pirates who survived fled to the sea…but they did not end safe…

Chapter 36 - Attack of the Mad Matriarch On the western side of the Southern Archipelago lay Amethyst island. Largely dominated by a volcanic area, Amethyst was also home to the pirate state Lion Kingdom and its capital, located on the eastern edges of the island. 20 years prior, after king Galahad Blutleid died on the battlefield, the kingdom entered an age of darkness — until the recent emergence of a new king brought new energy to the country. Galahad’s younger brother, Gaion Blutleid, proactively…

Chapter 37 - The Fall of the Pirate Kingdom “The…Overthrower…? Why do you want to know about that…?” Gaion was perplexed. He honestly had no clue as to why Grace would be interested in such a thing. (Could she be planning to mass produce the Overthrowers? Don’t tell me that this woman is aiming to conquer the southern seas too…?) Such thoughts crossed Gaion’s mind as he opened his mouth. “That…was brought to us by a man who joined the crew a few years ago.” “A man…?” “An odd…

Chapter 24 - Battle at the Governor’s Palace “ATTACK THE PALACE!!!” “RRAAAAAAHHHH!!” The pirates, split in several groups, advanced towards the palace from multiple directions. Of the over 2000 pirates forming the Lion Kingdom fleet, 1500 had disembarked. The remaining 500 stayed on the ships, in case of emergency. The majority of the attacking force was made of low-rank members of the Lion King pirates, but their morale was everything but low. A higher rank within the Lion Kingdom was promised…
