Chapter 272: Only I Can Defeat You

Celica was also someone who cared about her image. After hearing what Neymar said, she felt ashamed to face her.

Even in a place like the Forbidden Sea, there was no way out for anyone, especially when such things happened. No one wanted it, but if you didn’t protect well, then you just didn’t, and Celica never made excuses for herself.

"Ahem, you two continue talking. I will apologize later…" Celica stepped back outside.

If it were another experienced cardinal, they probably wouldn’t let it go so easily; they would want to ask more questions to understand the situation.

After Celica left, Karoso hugged Neymar tightly and quickly used the Communication Card to tell Neymar everything that had happened to him.

Of course, Karoso instinctively left out what happened with Elizabeth.

Neymar also shared everything that had happened to her with Neymar.

"Remember, you were very confused at that time and didn’t know anything." Karoso whispered through the Communication Card, which Celica and the others couldn’t hear, "They can’t use soul-searching spells to make you tell the truth."

This is the advantage of having connections; those special interrogation spells can’t be used against them.

Otherwise, with something so strange happening, the Church of Dawn Goddess would not let it go.

Fortunately, everyone in the first class of this ship is either rich or important; if the Church of Dawn Goddess targeted one of them, Karoso could rally others to protest together.

This force combined would be too much for even the Church of Dawn Goddess to handle.

"Um, I understand, big brother, you be careful too…"

……

At the same time, in Ailina’s room.

"Brother Carrey, I’m scared…"

Ailina hugged Carrey, trembling with fear.

Carrey held Ailina close, feeling like a winner in life.

Karoso, did you see? You can’t compete with me!

In her most scared moments, she never called your name, only mine.

"It’s okay…" Carrey patted Ailina’s back.

She depends on me so much; can I propose to her afterward?

How infuriating! If Rayne weren’t in this room, I could have spent the night with Ailina.

"Didn’t the crew just say that? The problem is solved. Don’t worry; even if it’s not solved, I will protect you…" Carrey comforted her.

"Hmm…"

Ailina’s mind was wandering.

She remembered seeing Saaya on the ship; he is also the son of Grand Duke Osiris.

And that Second Prince of the Empire looked so charming…

……

At that moment, Saaya was in his room drinking.

He did not care at all about the messy things that had happened before; no matter how fierce the fighting was outside, it was not something he could get involved in.

He was just thinking that Karoso had died and had surprisingly turned into a ghost…

Normally, he should have laughed, as no one would compete with his brother for the position of the big boss, and the person he disliked the most was gone.

No way to explain it to his father?

That was not something Saaya should worry about; with so many skilled people on the ship, they achieved nothing. Even if Osiris knew that Saaya did not protect his brother well, he would only be punished for a few days and locked up for a month at most.

Saaya also did not know why he felt so gloomy.

"Damn it, it should have been me who sent you into the abyss…" Saaya smashed a bottle on the ground and gritted his teeth, saying, "How did you become a ghost by yourself? Useless, useless!"

"Young Master, this wine is specially made for Professionals; it’s quite strong. Let me drink with you…" A female bodyguard sat beside Saaya.

"Get lost, I don’t have time to deal with you."

Saaya pushed the female bodyguard away.

He picked up a bottle of wine, swayed a little, and stood up. He wanted to go outside for a walk, to the deck, to feel the breeze and pay his respects to Karoso.

The sailors had already informed the first-class passengers that everything was fine for now, but the first-class passengers valued their lives. Even when told there was no danger, none of them wandered outside.

Creak…

Saaya opened the door, holding the wine bottle, taking three steps to the left and two steps to the right, stumbling toward the direction of the deck.

Just then, he felt a small hand tap on his shoulder.

Saaya paused for a moment and instinctively turned his head.

He saw Karoso looking at him with a puzzled expression, "Second Brother, it’s one thing not to take part in the fight, but why have you drunk so much? Are you afraid they might lose and get swallowed by monsters, wanting to have one last drink before you die?"

"Father taught me that in times of despair, placing hope in others is the foolishest thing to do."

"Even if one’s strength is not enough to save their life, they should still pick up their sword and fight to the death."

"At least we can trust the sword in our hands."

"Even if we die, we will honor the ancestors of Colloa."

Saaya stared blankly at Karoso in front of him.

"Ha, I’ve really had too much to drink; I’m seeing illusions," Saaya said with a helpless smile. "I really wish someone could wake me up…"

Bang!

Saaya was stunned.

Suddenly, Karoso slapped him across the face.

"Second Brother, I will meet this request of yours; just say it directly," Karoso said calmly. "By the way, I’ve never seen such a strange request. Second Brother, are you a masochist?"

Saaya looked at Karoso in disbelief, firmly holding his shoulder. "This isn’t an illusion; you’re not dead?"

"I’m perfectly fine, why would I be dead?" Karoso raised an eyebrow.

"Then why did you look like a ghost just now?" Saaya’s eyes widened.

"Ghost… Some strange things happened to me; it’s a secret. My father can know, but if you want to find out, you should ask him." Karoso shook his head with a slight smile.

He thought of that sycophantic version of Saaya and how similar they were to the current one.

Did he make a wish and end up in the Colloa family?

Seeing Karoso like this, Saaya ground his teeth in anger.

He hated Karoso’s attitude; even though he was younger, he knew so much more than Saaya and wouldn’t tell him anything.

Ugh, why doesn’t that little brat just disappear?

"Damn it!" Saaya pushed Karoso away and said angrily, "It’s better to be alive. I tell you, I will make you lose everything one day and then you will regret it in the dungeon for the rest of your life!"

"I’ll be waiting." Karoso waved Saaya off, "I’m going back to sleep now. You do as you wish."

"You jerk, don’t die so easily in the future; only I can kill you!" Saaya shouted.

"Got it," Karoso waved his hand.

Watching Karoso’s vanishing figure, Saaya grew more and more angry.

But while he was getting angry, he suddenly showed a little smile.

Without this little brat, how much less fun would life be?

He will fall into my hands sooner or later!

Hmm… how about trying to steal his woman like the Second Prince said?

Saaya was not thinking about Ailina, but he thought about the woman close to Karoso…

Neymar is the younger sister, and… Teresa?

Saaya shivered.
