"Umm, Senior, where are you heading to?"
Alda hesitantly approached the quiet Lucy and asked after mustering her courage for more than an hour. It has been six hours since the Retour Poisson started diving deep into the Rose Sea and, a few minutes ago, they reached the 1,000-kilometer mark.
It will soon start getting dangerous and the sea monsters are very active here and empowered by the Rose Sea, making them a threat even to the Overgod.
Actually, despite their bad encounters, Alda felt relieved that someone as strong as Lucy was accompanying them. If things turn for the worse and a sea king appears, she was sure that the silver-haired woman will take care of it.
"Don't mind us."
Lucy spat those three words before proceeding to ignore Alda and gaze at Arthur. The black flames were sometimes subduing and other times rising three to four meters above, even breaking through the fish's translucent barrier but, fortunately, not affecting it.
