Chapter 255: She Is Yours Now

"Ah!"

Kirmin jumped in surprise and quickly stepped away.

"Karoso?" Alita’s eyes widened as she looked at the ghostly figure of Karoso. "Are you dead?"

"I didn’t die. It’s hard for me to explain my current state. To keep it short, Elizabeth and I were influenced by an unknown force and went back to the past. I returned because of my identity as The Favored One, and she came back because of her job as a thief and her longing for pirates. Now, we are both on a pirate ship called the Black Pearl. As for why, we don’t know."

"But, I know what you will face next."

"By now, you should have dealt with that sea monster, right? Afterward, you need to quickly clean the blood of the monsters from the cabin, or there will be serious consequences."

"In no time, other monsters will be drawn to the blood of this monster, just like sharks."

"The faster you clean, the fewer monsters you will have to face."

"Also, the body of a fallen god is affecting this sea area; the past and future can communicate. Not only that, things from the past can be sent to the future, and things from the future can go to the past."

"But this only applies to materials, along with special ingredients from the Forbidden Sea, like the Devil Fish."

"In four hours, you will encounter a powerful foe. To defeat him, you need a special card, and the recipe for that card is…"

"Besides this card, there are also some support cards, and their recipe is…"

"What you are about to face is not just this. I know some details and I will tell you…"

Karoso’s speed is six times faster, which is the only speed that matches Alita’s strength.

"Wait, the most important card you mentioned, you don’t mean for me to make it right here, do you? That’s an eighth-tier card, and I’ve never made one before!" Alita’s lips twitched.

Karoso completely ignored Alita’s words and said to himself, "Kirmin, hurry to my room and bring me my card pouch. There is a whole set of sixth-tier cards in there."

Hearing this, Kirmin quickly ran to Karoso’s room and handed a card pouch to him.

Karoso didn’t know when he would break through, so he had prepared these long ago, including a sixth-tier Golden Legend weapon card.

Luckily, Karoso’s weapon card had been ready for eighth-tier ever since he completed Osiris’s trial, otherwise, he wouldn’t have a good weapon card at that moment.

Kirmin looked at the card pouch in her hand and thought Karoso was such a spender…

So many good cards, and how long has it even been?

Karoso grabbed the card bag and continued, "There’s no time left, remember that card…"

After saying this, Karoso vanished without a trace.

"What is happening? How did the young master turn into a ghost?" Kirmin swallowed hard.

"I don’t know, let’s do what he said. I hope there is an Eight-tier Card Maker on this ship."

……

From Karoso’s point of view, the others moved as slowly as a turtle, as if time had slowed down six times.

Kirmin was clearly running, but when she did, Karoso just wanted to kick her because she wasn’t going much faster than walking.

Karoso checked the time and started to quickly adjust the card set; this set focused on knights and had no water battle cards.

Even though Karoso was thorough in his preparations and had brought water battle cards before coming to the sea, he didn’t expect to break through so quickly. The netizens had not warned him that there would be ambushes at sea, so his preparations were limited.

However, even without the water battle card, Karoso’s abilities are far beyond what Elizabeth can match.

Knock, knock, knock…

At that moment, there was a sound of knocking on the door.

When Karoso opened the door, he saw Elizabeth covered in sweat, her eyes blank, as if something had gone wrong.

[Oh no, did she just throw herself at me?]

[Is Master Karoso going to take charge now?]

[First kiss is one thing, but not the first night!]

[No way, I oppose this marriage!]

"It’s too hard, controlling my powers is too hard," Elizabeth mumbled.

Karoso pulled her into the room and pressed her onto the bed. "What happened? You came to find me; you can’t just want to say you are too tired from training, right?"

[Wow, they are getting into bed!]

[Honey Karoso, hold on!]

[At this time, Elizabeth probably hasn’t bathed, so she must smell bad.]

[We can shower together, and Elizabeth can help!]

[Master Karoso, don’t be picky!]

[Hurry, hurry up! I want to see something amazing!]

[Even if they do get together, it will be all blurred out, so what’s the point?]

[I want to teach Master Karoso a few positions!]

Some netizens disagreed, while others enjoyed the excitement, creating a lively atmosphere.

They preferred to watch something entertaining rather than focusing on serious matters.

"No, no, no! I discovered something interesting…" Elizabeth grabbed Karoso’s hand and said, "I just saw Sophia!"

"She was lying in a room resting, and a female elf was sitting by her bed. I chatted with that elf for a bit and talked about our current situation."

"Karoso, do you know? We can contact people from the future, and I asked her to find someone to rescue me!"

"Master Celica is a cardinal; she will definitely not give up on us, right?"

Karoso was trying hard not to laugh.

Only Elizabeth was kept in the dark about this incident.

She did not know that Russell was on the ship, and she was unaware that the netizens had spoiled everything for Karoso.

Of course, it’s best for Elizabeth to grow by herself.

"Hmm, she won’t give up on us," Karoso said as he patted Elizabeth’s shoulder. "You did well, even though I just saw the shadow of a future person…"

"You saw it just now?" Elizabeth was taken aback.

Karoso’s vision couldn’t capture Minaret; it was the netizens who spotted it.

"Yes, but I don’t know how they can help us," Karoso said. "So, if we want to get out, we have to rely on ourselves…"

"Oh, I see…" Elizabeth looked very disappointed.

The plan to lie down and do nothing failed.

"Is there anything else? If not, go train hard. Your strength is very important; you can’t rely on me for everything. Don’t forget, you are much older than me."

Karoso’s words felt like a knife, stabbing Elizabeth in the chest.

Does he… think I’m too old?

No matter where I go, I’m still a beautiful girl!

Well, looking at Karoso’s young face, Elizabeth felt defeated.

"Hmm, I understand… By the way, about this ship and Tige, everything happened so fast before, I didn’t think much about it. Now that I remember this history, do you want to hear it?"

[What? Elizabeth knows this history?]

[It wasn’t written in the story.]

[Wow, the story didn’t even have a Master Karoso for Elizabeth to talk to!]

"Tell me more!"

Karoso’s gaze sharpened; this is important information!

"Don’t I like pirates?" Elizabeth shook her head.

She was just tired during training and had been blanking out, which is why she remembered this information.

"A long time ago, I read a book about pirates that talked about the three most amazing ships at sea."

"The first ship, Black Pearl, is known as the Ship of Freedom. It has unmatched speed that depends entirely on how much the captain longs for freedom; the more they desire it, the faster it goes. There are even stories that say its speed can cross time and space."

"No one knows what the Black Pearl is made of, only that it is a living ship."

"The second ship, Flying Dutchman, is incredibly fast and has the ability to dive underwater. Only the Black Pearl can catch up to it at sea."

"The third ship, Silent Mary, can destroy other ships and summon sea monsters, but the downside is it can never dock."

"The crew of the Black Pearl is cursed; all the crew members are ghosts, sailing fearlessly in the sea, making the ocean tremble in fear. Its last captain was Tige Spoleto, who famously took a queen from a country as his wife and then sailed out to sea again."

"Under Tige’s leadership, this ship ruled the seas for thirty years, battling Silent Mary countless times, and then both ships vanished without a trace."

"Some say they were wiped out by the church, others say they were hunted down by the navy of that country, and in the end, they were killed by cannon fire."

"But! For an entire new era, no one dared to say this, until the Age of Innovation, known as the Age of Card God, when countries began to tell the stories of how the Pirate King was killed."

"Hmm… What I see is a rare book that tells the oldest story, which should be the truest."

"Perhaps this time is Tige’s final journey…"

With a look of amazement, Elizabeth also looked full of longing.

Such an amazing pirate truly reached the pinnacle of piracy.

If I could steer the fastest pirate ship, how wonderful that would be!

In that case, I would be the freest person in the world!

Just then, thin strands of wood floated up from the deck and gently brushed against Elizabeth’s head.

"Huh?" Elizabeth was startled and quickly turned around.

When she saw the thing on the ship, she couldn’t help but look surprised.

"Are you saying hello to me?" Elizabeth waved her hand at the wooden tendril and then stretched out her small hand, saying, "Shall we shake hands?"

The tendril gradually formed a hand and shook hands with Elizabeth.

"Karoso, does this mean it accepts me?" Elizabeth said excitedly, "Can I become the captain?"

"It just means you have potential; claiming it in this era isn’t that simple. You need to be able to handle it," Karoso casually replied.

Karoso wasn’t jealous that the legendary pirate ship Black Pearl was being friendly to Elizabeth, but he ignored it.

This wasn’t just for the plot; it was also about personality.

Karoso’s education meant that he couldn’t be free; he couldn’t abandon Canglang Province, so he couldn’t connect with Black Pearl’s freedom.

"Can I be friends with it…?" Elizabeth pouted.

Karoso’s gaze was fixed on her lips.

Elizabeth saw the way Karoso was looking at her and thought about the sea, her face suddenly turned red. She quickly stepped back and covered her mouth.

She felt something was off, quickly let go of her hand, and waved at Karoso, saying, "It’s not that I don’t want you to kiss me, it’s just, it’s…"

"In any case, you understand…"

Karoso looked confused, "What do I understand?"

"In the future, this ship will be gone," Karoso said. "It doesn’t matter how well you get along with it."

"At least we are friends now, why worry so much?" Elizabeth smiled, gently holding the thread.

[The Silent Mary mentioned by Elizabeth in her gossip really has a strong visual impact.]

[Summon the sea monster, did we just encounter one?]

[Wow, didn’t that just match up perfectly?]

[The ship fighting HMS Johenna Smith is Silent Mary, and is the Black Pearl also fighting?]

[This battle is very dangerous; it is the biggest challenge Captain Tige has faced. But don’t worry, in this fight, Elizabeth is just a minor character. Though it is still perilous, the main battle is between Tige and Saladache.]

"You mentioned this sea monster and the difficulties they will face later…" Karoso’s gaze fell on the bullet comment, and he turned to write with his hand, "Is it related to Silent Mary?"

[Yes, looking at it this way, that must be the ship. The graphics at that time did not show the battle of the ship, but there was indeed a fight.]

[At least now we know its fighting style involves ramming and bow cannons; we just need to be careful about that.]

[It’s a sure win, why worry about that?]

Karoso isn’t as optimistic as the bullet comment suggests.

Earlier, the sea monster suddenly became stronger because he is Surtr The Favored One. Who knows if this ship will have problems?

Also, Tige asked himself questions he shouldn’t have asked, many of which were about the future. Heaven knows if he will face consequences.

"Come on, let’s find the captain." Karoso grabbed Elizabeth’s hand and walked outside.

"Hey, hey, hey? Where are we going?" Elizabeth stumbled as Karoso pulled her.

Soon, the two arrived on the deck, where Tige was looking far away.

Seeing the two holding hands come over, Tige laughed heartily and said, "Well, my son can’t wait to enjoy the spoils, huh?"

"No…"

"Hahaha… I did say back then, whoever lands the final blow gets this woman. If Will disagrees, that’s Will’s problem. You didn’t object then, and now she is yours! The bathwater I used today is a gift for you. It’s a good thing that can enhance magic, calm the mind, and speed up magic recovery." Tige looked at them with admiration.

"Huh?" Elizabeth’s eyes widened. "You came to find the captain for this?"

Elizabeth’s voice trembled slightly.

She did not expect that Karoso really wanted her!

But, but… this is wrong, isn’t it? Isn’t this taking advantage of someone in danger?

"Captain!" Will panicked and rushed over, pleading, "Give me one more ch…"

Bang!

With one kick from Tige, Will was kicked apart.

Will’s bones tried desperately to come together, but the speed was astonishingly slow.

"Not killing you is my mercy," Tige said, raising his head. "On this ship, my orders are absolute!"
