Chapter 87: Fishing Failure
Byron stood at the bow of the 'Flaming Rose,' his eyes fixed on the large shadow lurking beneath the waves. This time, there was no trace of the despair or helplessness he had once felt. When the shadow attempted to pull him under, he experienced only a brief moment of dizziness before quickly regaining his composure.
The idea of being driven to suicide by the 'Calamity' or suffering a devastating mental blow didn't cross his mind. Instead, he felt a deep sense of stability, as if his ship had already found safe harbor before the storm even hit. It was a reassuring feeling, a solid foundation beneath him.
