Chapter 145:

I pledge my utmost devotion.

Drake bowed his head, pledging his allegiance to Otto.

It was an awkward stance.

At one time hed aimed for the Navy, but being the son of a pirate forced him to be one, and thus uneducated in the ways of etiquette.

But the raw sincerity oozing out of him covered the awkwardness.

*Shiiing!*

Camille pulled out his sword and offered it respectfully to Otto.

*Tap*

Otto tapped Drakes shoulder and head lightly with his sword and spoke.

I accept you as a vassal, and grant you the title of Count and the rank of Grand Admiral of the Navy.

I am honored. Your Majesty

Rise.

Otto helped Drake to his feet.

[Alert: You have succeeded in recruiting Francis Drake!]

[Alert: Drakes potential has been weakened!]

[Alert: Drakes scenario has been destroyed!]

A hazy string of notifications flickered in and out of existence.

I hope this eases your mind a little.

At the very least, its not tormenting me. I cant live and breathe with the same air as my familys enemies. I am satisfied with this.

Very well then.

Of course, even if he succeeded in his revenge, the dead family members would not return.

But with Avery dead, the anger and hatred that had been burning inside of him would gradually dissipate.

Youve been injured. Get some medical attention.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Drake stepped toward the medical bay.

Were not quite done yet. I need you all to stay strong until weve wiped out the last of the remnants and captured all the pirate ships.

Yes, Your Majesty!

The battle was far from over.

While almost all of the pirates had surrendered, there were a few ships that refused to submit and put up a last stand.

*Splash!*

Otto boarded the [Red Goddess] and pursued the pirate ships as they either resisted or fled.

Along the way.

Huh? freewebnσvel.cøm

Ottos eyes rounded as he saw a familiar figure fighting on top of one of the pirate ships.

Qasim?

Qasim was on the deck, slaughtering pirates.

Why are you out there?

*Zing!*

*Ziiiinnng!*

Qasim whirled around five cubes, unleashing a barrage of lasers.

That wasnt all.

Gwik! Gwick! Gwiiikkkk!!

Next to him, a giant Penguin was spewing cold air from its mouth, freezing the pirates to death.

Huh? Isnt that a Peng?

Otto immediately identified the penguin.

It was a strange sight.

Why would Qasim, who had been tasked with dropping off the pirates captives at the nearest harbor, be here on [Skull Island]?

And with a Tundrian Peng from the northern polar region?

Qasim!!

Otto called out to Qasim.

*Zwiinggg!!*

Kaaaargh!

Qasim didnt hear Ottos shout as he was busy crushing the second in command of the Sea Serpent Pirates with his whirling cubes.

QASIM!!!

Aah!? Your Majesty!

Qasims eyes widened as he finally heard Ottos voice.

*Whoosh!*

Qasim rotated the cubes under his feet and floated over to the [Red Goddess].

*Flap!* *Flap!* Flap!*

The Peng also flapped its cute, tiny wings, displaying its ability to hop from ship to ship.

Qasim, Chief of the Air Force, greets your majesty.

Qasim dropped to one knee and bowed to Otto.

Guick! Guic to see you! Gwick!

The Peng also greeted Otto.

Why are you here?

Oh, yes.

Qasim scratched the back of his head and laughed.

Thats what happened, hahaha.

Qasim told Otto about all the things that had happened.

How he had been caught in a storm and swept out to sea.

How when he woke up, he was rescued by a Peng.

What are you, a druid, and now youre picking up the Pengs too?

The story of how he met a group of pirates while floating on a slowly melting glacier.

The story of how he was drained and on the brink of death, when the cubes appeared and fired lasers at the pirates.

Those were the cuboids that fought in the ancient ruins at that time, right?

After defeating the pirates and making their way to [Claw Island], they were accidentally caught in a whirlpool.

And when they regained their bearings, they were in the middle of a naval battle, and saw the sight of three Krakens.

At this point, its embarrassing to say that Qasim was simply unlucky.

It was like when one falls backwards, ones nose will break, and the back of ones skull will crack.

However, considering that Qasim didnt die, he wasnt completely out of luck.

It was just an unwanted ordeal.

Was that all real?!

Perhaps, Otto reflected, Kairos might be a good contemplator.

Still, its a relief to see you safe and well, Qasim.

Haha hahaha.

I thought Id never see you again, Heuk.

Qasims teary eyes reddened.

He was worn out from unwittingly going through another round of hardship and misfortune.

The sight of Otto made the last few days burst out of him.

Oh my. Our Qasim. Its okay, youre safe.

Heukk.

Youve been through so much.

Otto soothed and comforted Qasim.

Because of his peculiar fate, Qasim, who continued to suffer, seemed pitiful.

But.

Otto glanced over at the Peng.

Are you.

Guic?

Gui. Guick. Guick. Chirp. Guk. Guiiiikk, chirp, chirp, chirp. Gui. Guic. Guuk. Guik. Guik. is. Guik?

Guuiiiic?!

The Pengs eyes widened.

Guic? How do guick know my name, Guic?

Am I right, youre Gui. Guick. Guick. Chirp. Guk. Guiiiikk, chirp, chirp, chirp. Gui. Guic. Guuk. Guik. Guik. is. Guik?

Yes! Guic!

In that moment.

What is he saying?

You know that penguins name?

What the hell are they talking about?

The people around him were puzzled that Otto knew the penguins name correctly.

But the person who was really puzzled was Otto.

Why is the prince of the Peng tribe here?

It turns out that the penguin that Qasim had picked up was not just any penguin, but a prince of the Peng Tribe, a powerful faction in Tundria.

The Prince of the Peng Tribe [Gui. Guick. Guick. Chirp. Guk. Guiiiikk, chirp, chirp, chirp. Gui. Guic. Guuk. Guik. Guik. is. Guik]..

And now hes even bringing back Lord as he goes.

Otto shook his head in incredulity.

After all, the Peng was among the 100 Lords, who were the protagonists of the game, The [Territory War].

[Tundria] was actually not a region that had a significant impact on the main scenario of [Territory Wars].

Due to the fact that it was a cold polar area and an outlying region, it had a relatively minor global influence.

As a result, [Tundria] was seen as a sort of side story or event stage.

In fact, [Tundria] was the last DLC content to be added.

As the Northern Empire descends southward, a great war breaks out among humans, and the other races living in [Tundria] suffer extreme damage and environmental destruction.

This was the scenario that encompassed the entire region of [Tundria].

But even in [Tundria], there were also Lord characters, and they had their own scenarios.

Peng was one such [Tundria] Lord character.

A prince of the Peng Tribe who cant swim. He was bullied by his own people and was never treated like a prince. Later, he ascends to the throne after helping to defend Tundria from an invasion by the Northern Empire. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Pengs scenario is a traditional coming-of-age story.

Because of his cute appearance, Peng was accepted as the mascot of [Territory Wars], and because of that, he has a very large fan base.

This is so absurd.

Otto didnt know how to react to Qasims grandeur in picking up such a penguin.

But. I suppose this isnt unreasonable.

However, upon closer inspection, it wasnt an entirely impossible story.

Oddly enough, Peng wasnt a character that gamers choose to play.

It was a way to meet and form friendships with outsiders(gamers)who happened to stumble into Tundria, and work through hardships and adversity together.

Pleased to meet you. My name is Otto de Scuderia, King of the Kingdom of Lota.

Otto stretched his arms out behind him like folded wings as he greeted Peng.

Guic?!

Peng was surprised when Otto greeted him in the traditional Peng manner.

He hadnt expected a continental person to know Peng etiquette.

Gui. Guick. Guick. Chirp. Guk. Guiiiikk, chirp, chirp, chirp. Gui. Guic. Guuk. Guik. Guik. is. Guik. Its Peng, My name is Peng in the Continental Style! Nice to meet you! Guic!

Yeah, me too.

Otto grabbed Pengs outstretched wings.

What kind of human are you?

You can communicate with a penguin like this?

The people around him were stunned in amazement.

The Pengs are a race that few people ever see in their lifetime.

If the ability to communicate and exchange greetings skillfully with such beings isnt fascinating, then wouldnt that be even stranger?

But it wasnt just Otto who surprised everyone.

Guick Gui Guk. Guiic Guuck Gui.

(Nice to meet you. My name is Elise.)

Elise greeted Peng in their native language.

Guic?!

Peng exclaimed in surprise.

Gui Guik Guic Guuiiick Gui gui GguiIck?!

(Do you really know the language of the Peng people, Guic?!)

Gu Guiick Guiick G Guuk.

(I learned it during my time on the other side of the Wall.)

Elise spoke fluently, even the difficult tones (), and communicated with Peng without discomfort.

This is happening?!

Even Otto was surprised by Elises fluency.

What the hell.

Camille, who had been watching the scene, exhaled heavily in bewilderment.

But one thing was certain.

Neither Otto nor Elise would ever be considered a normal human.

Afterwards, Otto led his entire fleet to the [Gurling Archipelago].

They won a great naval victory.

Pirate Lord Avery was slain.

All thats left is to take control of the strategically important [Gurling Archipelago].

This isnt the direction of the [Gurling Archipelago].

Drake frowned as Otto directed the fleet in the wrong direction.

Uh. No.

Isnt our top priority right now to secure the [Gurling Archipelago]?

Thats right.

Then why arent we heading to the [Gurling Archipelago].

How do we breach through there?

Thats.

Ottos question left Drake speechless.

The [Gurling Archipelago] is a natural fortress, where even a small force can stop a large army.

No matter how large the [Black Fleet] was, if they were to blindly attack the [Gurling Archipelago], they would literally be sunk with a gurl.

It would be suicidal to break through the defense line of the [Gurling Archipelago]. Of course, with our current capabilities, we might be able to break through, but then wed incur some damage.

Its impossible to win a battle without taking damage.

What if there is a way?

What do you mean?

We dont have to spill blood.

With that, Otto continued to lead the fleet in the wrong direction.

And then.

Huh? Wh-what?

Look, theres a big reef up ahead!

People screamed as Otto tried to steer the Fleet into the big reef.

What do you think youre doing!

Hey you lunatic, why would you want to commit a group suicide after we won a fierce battle already!

Camille and Kairos cursed, yet Otto didnt care.

Just then, the [Serpents Tongue], which was at the forefront of the fleet, collided with the reef.

*Swoosh!*

The [Serpents Tongue] emitted a green light.

*Whoooosh!*

Space and time warped in front of the reef, and the center of the [Gurling Archipelago] appeared before them.
