“Me?”
ㅤ
Luke let out a bewildered voice.
ㅤ
“What’s so funny.”
ㅤ
Prince Gale spoke in a disgruntled voice.
ㅤ
“No, why me?”
ㅤ
“It’s obvious, because you beat me.”
ㅤ
Prince Gale answered with a face like he had bitten a bitter bug.
ㅤ
“You defeated the Behemoth that I couldn’t defeat. It’s frustrating, but your power is above mine.”
ㅤ
“No. . . that wasn’t just my power. . .”
ㅤ
“But I won’t admit that I’m weaker than you, I absolutely can’t admit that!”
ㅤ
Gale turned his back again as he interrupted Luke’s words and roared.
ㅤ
“That’s why I’m training on this island. If you understand, get out of here quickly. Just looking at your face makes me feel sick.”
ㅤ
“Prince Gale is training. . .”
ㅤ
Luke was taken aback and looked at his back.
ㅤ
Gale, who was like the embodiment of arrogance, was doing such a thing. . .
ㅤ
But there was one thing that bothered him.
ㅤ
“But why are you training on this island. . .?”
ㅤ
Gale’s strength is real, even if he is overconfident.
ㅤ
Is there a reason why he chose this place to train?
ㅤ
“. . .”
ㅤ
Gale didn’t answer.
ㅤ
A clear rejection was floating on his back.
ㅤ
“. . .Anyway, thank you for saving the children. Thank you very much.”
ㅤ
As he bowed to Gale and was about to turn to the children, then. . .
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Oh, there you are, I’ve been looking for you.”
ㅤ
A voice came from the other side of the beach.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Gaston?!”
ㅤ
Kiel was surprised.
ㅤ
“You, you, Kiel!. . . Don’t tell me you’re also after Kidd-san!”
ㅤ
Gaston, who was also surprised and looking at Kiel, soon began to yell with suspicion.
ㅤ
“Kidd-san? This person is Gale. . .”
ㅤ
“Alma, it might not be a good idea to mention that name right now.”
ㅤ
Luke covered Alma’s mouth, who was making a curious face.
ㅤ
“This person is Kidd-san.”
ㅤ
“. . .”
ㅤ
“Oh yeah! This person has been living in the mountains of this island for half a year, and he’s our bodyguard! I’ll tell you, we were the first to notice him! Don’t you dare interfere!”
ㅤ
Gale didn’t answer, but Gaston started talking proudly.
ㅤ
“This person is amazing! About a week ago, when one of our friends was attacked by a troll in the mountains, he cut it in half with a single stick! He’s incredibly strong! I don’t know how strong your bodyguard is, but he can’t beat this guy!”
ㅤ
“. . .”
ㅤ
Gale didn’t turn to us.
ㅤ
“What’s wrong, Kidd-san. Please take care of them quickly.”
ㅤ
“Shut up.”
ㅤ
Gale cut him off with a single word.
ㅤ
“Who said I would be your bodyguard. I did cut down one or two of the demon beasts that attacked your village, but don’t get carried away with that.”
ㅤ
“But. . . we were counting on you. Please, just a little bit.”
ㅤ
“I don’t care. The internal affairs of this small island are none of my business. If it’s your problem, solve it yourself.”
ㅤ
Gaston was pleading with a pathetic face, but Gale was relentless.
ㅤ
“Luke, do you know that person?”
ㅤ
“Well. . . I mean. . . I wouldn’t say we’re acquaintances per se. . .”
ㅤ
Kiel looked puzzled, but Luke could only respond with a forced smile, unable to tell her that the man was the prince of the Arrogas Kingdom.
ㅤ
“Hey, Kidd, did you catch anything? The tide should be just right for fishing around here.”
ㅤ
As he turned towards the voice coming from behind the cliff, he saw an old man approaching.
ㅤ
The old man, looking like a withered tree, was crossing the rocky beach as if he was taking a leisurely stroll.
ㅤ
What surprised Luke the most was the old man’s steady gait.
ㅤ
People usually sway their bodies left and right when they walk, but the old man didn’t do that at all.
ㅤ
Because of this, it was hard to predict his movements, and it felt as if he had moved several meters the moment you took your eyes off him.
ㅤ
And his calm demeanor was very similar to Gale’s.
ㅤ
No, it was probably Gale who was imitating this old man.
ㅤ
(There’s no doubt, this old man is Prince Gale’s master)
ㅤ
Luke immediately sensed it.
ㅤ
Seeing the old man, Gale clicked his tongue.
ㅤ
“. . .Tch, I can’t catch anything because of the disturbance.”
ㅤ
“What’s that? So today it’s going to be dried fish or dried meat again. You can’t even feed this poor old man some juicy meat. What an ungrateful disciple you are.”
ㅤ
“Shut up, if you want to eat meat so much, why don’t you eat one of the monsters lying around here.”
ㅤ
“Well, well, I didn’t think I’d have to teach you how to fish. Here, let me show you how it’s done.”
ㅤ
The old man, unfazed by the carcass of a sea pig monkey lying on the ground, began to cast his fishing line next to Gale.
ㅤ
He showed no fear towards Gale.
ㅤ
“Um. . .”
ㅤ
“Sa. . .”
ㅤ
“Sa?”
ㅤ
As Luke was about to greet him, he noticed Alma, who was standing next to him, with her eyes wide open.
ㅤ
Alma’s mouth was trembling, and she finally managed to squeeze out a voice.
ㅤ
“C, Cyphos・Sparsa-sama?!”
