      by nellstewart 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…

      by nellstewart 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…

      by nellstewart   Chapter 31 - The Queen of the Sea Birds   Countless sea birds were flying over the port, mewing, cawing and crying. From their claws and beaks dangled pieces of rope lit on fire, which they dropped over the pirate ships. Some of the birds even carried glass bottles filled with oil, which helped spread the flames further. The fire eventually reached the pirates’ flaming arrows, explosives and gunpowder meant for the “Overthrower” cannon, setting off large explosions. Cue a series of deafening…

      by nellstewart   Chapter 38 - Heartless One   【POV: A certain country’s minister】   My name is Samuel Lauros, I am a minister of the Garnet Kingdom, in the Southern Archipelago. More precisely, I “was” a minister.  Several months ago, the Garnet Kingdom was taken over by a foreign country and had been effectively dismantled: my old title had little to no meaning anymore. Garnet had been destroyed by the Lion Kingdom, a pirate country. We had always been at odds with the outlaw state; in recent years,…

      by nellstewart 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…

      by nellstewart   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…

      by nellstewart Chapter 28 - The Pretty Boy’s True Face “Hehehe…I’m going to get everything ready in a moment, so hang tight, okay?” “.........” Bartolo Blutlied…also known as Cristina, brought the young boy to her cabin and positioned him on the bed. Cristina sat down in front of the mirror and started leisurely removing her makeup, using water dotted with rose petals, all the while sneaking glances at the boy through the mirror. The black-haired, delicately handsome boy was sitting still on the bed,…
