Chapter 6: Little Sparrow

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

You specifically climbed up here just to say this

The sailors were astonished to find that he could also walk effortlessly on the tilted and swaying deck with the same composure as they did. A large wooden barrel filled with apples broke free from its ropes, bouncing across the deck, its lid shattering, and apples rolling everywhere, until a passenger on the Little Sparrow accurately caught the iron ring welded to the barrel's hoop.

Meat, the torn shirt, the back covered in scars, how terrible. The braids are chestnut red, lower the back a little more, hurry up and act, good fellows, only the last circle remains. Everyone, young and old, join in without exception, pull it tight, let the shouts echo to the heavens!

No one could figure out when their passengers had turned around, everything happened in the blink of an eye. A nearly adult orca leaped out of the water, followed closely by another orca, which was twice its size. As the young orca reached the highest point of its jump and was about to fall, the adult orca accurately struck its belly, causing the young orca to leap again, soaring through the air directly towards the Little Sparrow.

The soul from another world was almost mesmerized by everything before him. In his own world, only professionals and the wealthy could be fortunate enough to observe the free and wild orcas at such close proximity. Several orcas were swimming right alongside the hull of the "Little Sparrow" with the oars just a hand's breadth away from them; their companions were leaping out of the water nearby and splashing back down, creating waves that made the boat sway violently back and forth like a top on the verge of tipping over.

The Lich indeed fell silent, casting a sharp, cold smile before sinking into the depths of consciousness

How do we speak of the attack on Cape Sharp?

North Micro East, a line, orca

They moved in unison, circling around, while the winch creaked and groaned, the anchor chain clinked, and the wet iron anchor was dragged onto the deck, hanging at the bow. The oarsmen, hidden from view, wielded their oars, and under the precise guidance of the harbor pilot, the sailboat slowly and calmly backed away from the dock, brushing against the ropes and sails of other vessels. It made a quarter turn on the open water, raised its sails, and set off towards its designated course

Everyone else is busy grabbing anything they can catch, and each sway of the Little Sparrow will bring one side of the ship closer to the water's surface. The only one who seems to see the whole situation clearly is the sailor with yellow eyes, who stares blankly at the mage. The mage simply grabs him and ties him to the secured apple barrel to prevent him from falling into the sea in his dazed state, then shakes his finger at him and walks towards the stern.

Dongwei South, orca, four pieces

Every living being would be willing to approach you, the Lich said, of course, the positive energy that reshapes this body has never left; it still surges within your blood and marrow, warm and bright to the point of nausea

"Why not sing!" his companion said, "Our guests will enjoy it."

"Three-masted and four-masted ships may not be capsized, but they can still be struck and cracked," the captain said. "They can even pierce lead plates. Moreover, they are both large and heavy; even a five-masted ship that is four hundred feet long is merely the length of ten orcas, not to mention the narwhals, sperm whales, and blue whales." He shook his head, "One must approach these giants with respect and caution"

The young lads grab the rope!

It left the mage little time for contemplation; all he could rely on were the experiences and conditioned reflexes accumulated by this body over nearly a century.

The captain's cabin is the largest on the entire ship. In addition to his bedroom, there is a living room used for meetings and for all crew members to dine. The wizard's single cabin originally belonged to the first mate; it has a window and, after a good tidying up, can be considered neat and comfortable. However, it is so narrow that it can barely fit a bed and a foldable table that can only accommodate two arms. If he wishes to dine in his own room, he will have to make good use of his knees.

Look, it likes you, the Lich said with glee.

The cable pulling device is truly frightening

"Please forgive me," said the captain as he put on his hat, took a monocular from his pocket, and walked to the side of the ship to observe the situation behind.

"Yes," said the captain, "but they do play, you know. Chasing, colliding, or capsizing are their specialties, especially when the majority of the whales in a pod are males. It's like human children running around in the streets; they will chase each other day and night, heedless and wildly, calling out and jumping, completely unconcerned about what they bump into or what collides with them. They can easily crush or tear apart an entire small boat or a single-masted vessel in an instant."

That's right. The Lich said, and I have not climbed.

It was utterly marvelous; he felt as if he had transcended the confines of his body, yet he could still perceive every subtle detail. He could gaze deeply into that slightly parted mouth, admiring the pale grayish-red tongue and counting the number of teeth. He could smell the scents of tuna and octopus, and find a broad-leaved algae on the black pectoral fin. He could sense his own body tilting backward along the trajectory of the orca's charge. He raised his arm, his ten fingers sinking deeply into its thick abdominal fat. He breathed calmly, under the terrifying pressure exerted by nearly 10,000 pounds of weight, which even caused the entire boat to tilt to the left. The left side of the hull submerged into the seawater. He knew he was propelling this massive creature, using its leaping power to steer clear of the most crucial main mast and sail.

Ah! The sailors responded in unison, simultaneously pressing their bodies against the winch handle inserted into the head of the winch, "Ah, you are truly useless, long rope."

"Forgive my bluntness," said his passenger, "It seems that humans are not included on the list of prey for whales."

"Sir," the captain repeated, "where would you like to dine, in your room or mine?" He slightly leaned forward, bowed to his passenger, with his hands hidden beneath his short cloak

The orca passed between the main mast and the foremast, tearing half of the fore triangular sail, taking away the signal halyard and several foot ropes between the two masts, and its tail swept away a sailor who was unable to dodge, breaking four of his ribs; however, compared to the disaster it could have originally caused, this minor loss is completely negligible

It was a two-masted schooner known as "Little Sparrow," which, in terms of comfort and aesthetics, was far inferior to Captain Drake's Golden Lady. However, it was a new ship with ten sails, and when the wind was favorable, it would not be significantly slower than the latter. Its captain was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with broad shoulders and a dark brown face that easily evoked the image of a long-used copper coin. He wore a deep brown cloak adorned with a silver medal symbolizing the Wokins. He harbored some doubts and wariness, unable to refuse the demands of the leader of the Sharpbeak Harbor Thieves' Guild, yet he truly disliked having such a troublesome character aboard his ship

The soul from another world smiled and said, just like you, he is not the kind of fool who only endures without understanding how to retaliate; he knows that this statement can keep the lich quiet for a long time

Then his colleague also shouted: "Northeast, 3, orca"

The sailor with yellow eyes rushed over to help him lift and secure the heavy wooden barrel. When they faced each other, the wizard, puzzled, saw fear in those yellow eyes, and the sailors shouted in unison

The sunlight began to grow scorching, while the sea breeze struggled to transform this heat into a damp chill. The little sparrows joyfully darted across the calm surface of the sea, and尖颚港 was soon left behind.

Before the first ray of sunlight was cast upon the top of the main mast, an old sailor, trusted by the captain, called upon the others, and they took their positions in front of the vertical windlass used for weighing anchor

Before the mage's magical pendant could traverse two squares, the orca and the whale had already caught up with the "Little Sparrow". It is easy to distinguish between them; the whale shoots a high column of water, singular in nature, while the orca's water column is much lower and spreads outwards. Additionally, compared to the steady and grounded gray whale, the black-and-white orca is much more lively. They leap and glide between the troughs and crests of the waves, chattering incessantly with sounds like "gaga", "chirp", and "huff", colliding with each other, kissing, tumbling in the air, and creating huge splashes with their tails.

The Lich let out a loud laugh, saying, I believe they have been quite gentle with you. You must know that the foul stench emanating from you is exactly like that of those meddlesome white-robed priests and paladins.

I think he still likes me a little

"Shall we sing a song?" asked a sailor

Sir

The unexpected guest withdrew his gaze from the distance, leaning casually and relaxed against the ship's railing. His cloak was draped over his shoulders, and the white robe he wore shone dazzlingly in the bright light, resembling a handful of ice and snow. However, his black eyes were even more peaceful and serene than before leaving port. The captain did not understand why he had such a strange thought, but it felt very real; he preferred to converse with this person rather than that one.

As the captain and the spellcaster walked on the unsteady deck, the lookout in the crow's nest suddenly shouted loudly: "Northeast by north, two whales."

Then a sailor with yellow eyes struck the wooden planks beneath his feet fiercely, making a loud noise.

"This is your room." He took out the magical pendant that once belonged to the owner of the Blunt Head Tavern, which had been used by the thief to offset part of a debt. The faint glow was not prominent in the sunlight, but the gem in the eleventh slot had changed from deep sea blue to cornflower blue. It was slightly early for lunch, but the wizard immediately thought that this might be the captain's intention, allowing this unexpected guest to dine alone in peace, which was a good thing for him as well as for the captain and the crew.

Where is the large ship

Having spoken, he brought his fingertips close to his forehead, expressed his apologies once more, and then departed
