Chapter 257: The Child Has Grown Up
If it were before, Elizabeth would have shyly covered herself and might have even screamed.
But now, seeing how Karoso completely ignored her, as if she weren’t even a woman, made her more and more angry, and she couldn’t help but stand a little taller with pride.
Karoso’s expression showed no shyness; he did not cover his eyes or stare directly at her.
Until the curtain fell, Karoso remained in that same state.
Elizabeth pouted; it was so boring…
Does he really not find women attractive at all? I’m at least a somewhat popular singer, and so many people like me.
The two of them soaked in the pool for a full half hour, and they didn’t communicate much about what had just happened.
Elizabeth felt that it was about time, so she broke the silence first, "I’ll go out now."
"Hmm."
Soon, the sound of getting dressed could be heard.
The pirate was quite thoughtful, knowing to bring Elizabeth a new outfit.
Of course, it could also be that he just handed it to her by chance.
Once Elizabeth was dressed, she confidently walked out as if nothing had happened.
Just looking at her, she really did have the flair of a future pirate queen.
[Master Karoso, what do you think? Does it look good?]
[Bigger than Neymar’s.]
[If we’re talking about size, Alita is still the best.]
[Celica and Minaret have the best legs!]
[Shallow, can’t you see personality? How cute I am!]
Karoso quietly washed his face with water from the pool and didn’t respond to the bullet comment.
Knock, knock, knock…
Just then, there was a sound of knocking at the door.
"Young master, it’s almost time, you need to take a rest."
"Five more minutes," Karoso replied.
Not for any other reason, but because Karoso’s brother had not gone to bed yet.
He didn’t know how much the so-called Holy Light from the bullet comment could block, and standing up now would surely be embarrassing.
No matter what, Karoso is still a man. How could he remain indifferent when he saw this? He just knows how to control himself better than many others.
Karoso furrowed his brow.
What’s wrong? Why is he so angry? He wasn’t like this before…
……
On the other side.
Listening to Alita, Russell and the others became serious.
Right now, Russell, Celica, Merlin, and two eighth-tier members of the Dawn Church, along with Alita, were all in Celica’s room.
Minaret stayed in the shadows outside, afraid to see Merlin become murderous, so she didn’t go in.
If it weren’t for Karoso, she wouldn’t even bother to join this meeting.
This is the time to overcome difficulties together. Even if it goes against the rules of the Church of Dawn Goddess, Celica cannot keep it hidden.
Neymar and Sophia are currently in a coma. Sophia has been placed on the bed by Merlin, while no one can approach Neymar, as if there is an invisible barrier around her.
Mysterious blue glyphs are swirling around Neymar, creating a strong sense of mystery.
Merlin has added four layers of magic circles to this room; everything should be fine for now.
"Do you mean to say that Karoso told us there will be powerful enemies ahead?" Celica touched her chin. "Did he explain his situation clearly?"
"He traveled through time and space with a girl named Elizabeth. They don’t know what happened, and they don’t understand why they were chosen." Alita said seriously. "His form was vague; Kirmin and I saw it, but others may not have."
"I also saw it before with Minaret." Celica’s gaze turned to the door.
Merlin remained silent.
One of them is one of the oldest High Elves, and the other is one of the oldest Dark Elves. They both participated in the great war back then and even crossed swords.
It no longer matters who was right or wrong in that war. Merlin is on the side of the winners and doesn’t care to see Minaret. But since Minaret doesn’t want to see her, then they won’t meet.
Russell’s expression also became serious.
How is this nonsense related to Elizabeth?
Karoso is special but still normal; after all, he is one of The Favored Ones, but Elizabeth is just an ordinary person…
Russell didn’t doubt that Karoso was causing trouble; the ship is his and the route was decided at the last minute.
Russell couldn’t help but grind his teeth; lately, it feels like he’s been running into this kid everywhere.
However, Russell felt somewhat reassured about Karoso; he knew Karoso’s abilities and believed he would be able to protect Elizabeth well.
Don’t be fooled by Karoso being only fifth-tier; you can’t judge this person by his rank.
"This is the Forbidden Sea, where anything can happen. It involves gods and powers that we cannot understand," Merlin said. "The most important thing right now is to get through the challenges ahead, right?"
"Our magic has been used a lot, and the recovery speed is very slow."
"What about the losses on the ship?" Celica’s gaze was fixed on Russell.
"There were five hundred twelve deaths in third class, seventy-three in second class, and six in first class. All the injured have recovered." Russell sighed, "The bottom of the ship is damaged and even starting to leak. We are working hard to repair it. Luckily, we have a magic circle, or else this ship would have sunk."
Russell paused for a moment and continued, "In the short term, we won’t be able to sail."
He was worried that Celica would force him to sail and take the ship out of the Forbidden Sea.
But with Elizabeth missing, Russell was indeed a businessman, yet he only had one daughter, Elizabeth.
The ship could sail now, but if they left, Elizabeth and Karoso’s chances of survival would be even lower.
He cared more about Elizabeth than the passengers on the ship and his own life.
"Although I don’t know what happened, it is certain that these things were aimed at those two girls in the room. This is the responsibility of the Church of Dawn Goddess, and all losses will be covered by the church," Celica said.
I have to say, no matter what the Church of the Dawn Goddess is like, Celica herself is quite impressive.
This debt could easily be ignored and shouldn’t fall on the Church of the Dawn Goddess.
However, Celica is the type of person who sees things in black and white.
"Thank you, Archbishop," Russell said with a bow.
"So many people have died on the ship, and the passengers cannot help. Especially those in first class, they are all very cautious about their lives and won’t send out their guards," Celica frowned and said, "We will have to rely on ourselves."
"Is there an Eight-tier Card Maker on the ship? Karoso found the recipe for the card in the past, which could help us through this, but the most important card can only be made by an Eight-tier Card Maker," Alita said.
Russell shook his head with regret.
On this ship, the most powerful Card Maker is Alita, who is right in front of us.
Besides her, there isn’t even a seventh-tier Card Maker.
"An eighth-tier card… Theoretically, a seventh-tier Card Maker could make it too, right?" Merlin’s gaze turned to Alita.
"Are you kidding me?" Alita exclaimed, feeling frustrated.
