Chapter 606: Selecting A Crew Truen and Zero learned a lot from Ottley about managing a crew even if they didn't think the information was particularly useful. They were more interested in knowing how to sail a ship to get to where they wanted to go. The only crew they needed was already assembled. For a whole week, Ottley made them participate in menial tasks on the pretext of preparing for an actual voyage. Zero and Truen were no longer allowed into the shipyard now that the actual construction of the…-

Chapter 605: Weatherman When Docky heard from Ottley that Truen and Zero managed to overcome the practical aspect of their training, he smiled. The Marissa was also coming together very well. Pocky's prototype worked, and they were remodelling the initial design. "Very good," Docky praised his disciple. "Did they use magic?" Ottley shook his head. It certainly wasn't magic. However, these people were still very powerful without it. He told his teacher how Zero pulled Truen with superhuman strength and…

Nearly a month into the training, Ottley discovered that Zero and Truen were picking up their learning speed after the initial struggle, making up for the lost time. "Man overboard!" an otter shouted from the small ship that Zero and Truen were acting captains of. Ottley said nothing and watched from the sidelines. It was time for their test. After a month, Zero and Truen worked hard to learn everything about a ship. Now, they could easily tell their port from their starboard. "Close the sails!…

Chapter 603: Man of Sea (3) "Thirty-six seconds!" Ottley announced with surprise. Exactly what happened last night? What did his master tell Truen? This was a huge improvement! It has been almost a week since they started this training. Zero wasn't making much progress with his floating and swimming, but Truen struggled miserably without signs of improvement. The best was four seconds previously, and even so, Truen had to sit out for ten minutes before he collected himself to try again with a pale…

Chapter 602: Man of Sea (2) Zero and Truen progressed at different speeds under Ottley's tutoring. The doctor struggled with floating while Truen found it hard to keep himself underwater for more than ten seconds, even after Zero taught him the underwater breathing skill. Nobody felt the urgency more than Truen about his slow progress. The sea otter captain was kind enough to never pressurise them. In fact, the entire otter village was very supportive. The community often gave him small encouragement…

The otter assigned to be Zero and Truen’s teacher was a young otter who introduced himself as Docky’s disciple and a captain of a ship. In terms of commanding a vessel, nobody was better than Ottley when navigating rough waters. "This scar on my back," Ottley removed his shirt to show the doctor and his archer pal, "came from saving my comrade." Zero frowned. That didn’t look like it was done by a blade or a whip. The scar ran all the way from Ottley’s left shoulder to his right hip. There…

Chapter 600: Right Sea Hand's Ability After the hearty feast, the sea otters worked hard. Everyone was called to hasten the wood cutting and treatment for Zero's ship. While the experienced shipwright made the necessary preparations, Zero and Truen found themselves engaged in a high-level discussion with the Sea Hand brothers. As promised, Docky would help them narrow down Indra Seagloo's possible location using Pocky's findings. "These are old sightings," Docky grunted, and Pocky shot his brother a…

The trip on a dragon’s back lasted for almost a week, and by the time they found land again, Pocky realised something. Despite leaving this place for years, nothing about its landscape changed. A strong sense of nostalgia hit Pocky, and after getting off Bob’s back, he walked as if he was possessed. He knew this sight. He knew this sea. He knew this view too well! It was as if he wasn’t trapped in a mountain cave for decades. Now that they were very close to Pocky’s home, Zero decided to give…

Chapter 598: Grilled Squid Two days passed in a similar fashion. Pocky grew more comfortable with Zero and his gang. Even Bob was able to crack a few jokes that made everyone laugh. If they weren't hungry, they would sleep or chat or play some games. Beneath them, the ocean remained the same no matter where they travelled, and the sun travelled in a line above them, edging a little more each day forward as Bob tried his best to keep up the speed. "A whirlpool?" Pocky couldn't help but notice. He squinted…

Travelling from the edge of Mystic Meadows all the way back to the wilderness between U.N.U. and Lycantopia was going to take too long. Zero was currently in a hurry to get Pocky back so that the Sea Hand brothers could start working on the sinking ship. "Must I really agree to this oath?" Pocky asked nervously. He stared at the hunting knife in his hand and back to the magic scroll. As a shipwright, he didn’t study magic. To place his life in the hands of strangers who saved him was a huge risk.…
