The large Whales swimming across the horizon suddenly disappeared. Instead, a single person appeared in front of Cale.
“Young master Cale, long time no see.”
“Good to see you as well, Paseton.”
The mixed-blooded Whale, Paseton. Only, the small Humpback Whale turned into his human form so that he could appear in front of Cale and company. Raon, Choi Han, and Rosalyn were the only ones with Cale on this now dark cliff.
“Why did you suddenly call for us?”
Paseton moved his gaze to the conch shell in Cale’s hand. They were in the middle of fighting with the mermaids, but had to come over after hearing Cale’s call.
The signal Cale had sent was, ‘Urgent.’ It was a noise that only the Whale beast people could hear.
“Do you need our strength already?”
One of the conditions of Cale’s deal with the Whales was that he would be able to use their strength.
Cale got right to the point in order to answer Paseton’s question.
“I found out the organization that is helping the mermaids.”
“...Excuse me?”
Cale’s unexpected answer made Paseton’s face stiffen up.
The Whales were already having major headaches from the people who had taken over Hais Island 5 and were helping the mermaids out in the dark. It was not that they were very strong, but the fact that the mermaids had help was concerning.
“One of my subordinates was injured badly while figuring that out. I contacted you because we need to quickly take care of his mermaid poison and because I thought you should know the information.”
However, Paseton had a question after hearing Cale’s comments.
“Young master Cale, why were you looking into that?”
Cale closed his mouth for a second. A rare, awkward smile was on his face.
“Just because I was concerned.”
Raon was not invisible, but chose to speak into Cale’s mind anyway.
- You’re doing it again.
However, Cale just ignored it and started to look annoyed.
“With the mermaids getting stronger thanks to the Forest of Darkness that is by our territory, I wanted to help somehow, even though I knew the strong Whale would be able to take care of it.”
Paseton thought that the expression on Cale’s face was one of embarrassment. Cale had a similar expression when he had helped get rid of the mermaid poison in his leg.
Many emotions quickly went through the handsome Paseton’s eyes. His beautiful eyes were very clear, even underneath the dark night sky.
Cale turned his head away.
“I see.”
“It’s not like we are strangers.”
He casually answered before making eye contact with the others.
Rosalyn and Choi Han were staring at Cale. Their eyes easily revealed what they wanted to say.
‘Isn’t that different than the truth?’
Paseton then started to speak.
“Thank you very much, young master-nim. You helped us out again after saving my life last time.”
Cale still didn’t look back toward Paseton. He could see Rosalyn and Choi Han asking him with their gazes.
‘When did you save this person?’
Cale ignored their gazes while Rosalyn and Choi Han did not ask their questions aloud. In fact, Rosalyn opened her mouth to say something else.
“Young master Cale headed over here as soon as he learned of the information. We needed to quickly take care of the mermaid poison, but he thought we needed to let the Whale tribe know this information as quickly as possible.”Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
Cale showed his thanks with his gaze. This was the first time someone actually helped him pull off a scam. Choi Han just kept his mouth shut and stepped back.
“I see. I guess we need to bring over a mermaid corpse in order to get rid of the mermaid poison.”
“We will go ourselves.”
“Excuse me?”
Cale looked back at Paseton.
“We are going as well.”
There was something he needed to do.
Of course, the words coming out of Cale’s mouth were very different from his actual thoughts.
“There aren’t many of us, so we probably can’t participate in the battle, but we want to help out, even if it is just a little.”
But really, Cale was just planning on doing a hit and run.
Even that was enough.
Paseton’s pupils started to shake.
The Whale Tribe was currently in the middle of a fierce battle with the Mermaids. Of course, they had the advantage since they learned about the dead mana and poison in advance, however, there were a lot of mermaids while the Whales had a lot of obstacles in their way because they had to protect the weaker sea creatures while fighting the mermaids.
That was why they needed an overwhelming strength.
‘Young master-nim says they are weak, but.’
Paseton’s gaze headed toward the Black Dragon.
It didn’t matter if it was on land, on an island, or even in the sea.
“What are you looking at, little Whale?”
It was because Hais Island 12 was close to Arm’s base on Hais Island 5. They didn’t want the Whales to be seen. That was why they came to Hais Island 1 first and will then move to Hais Island 12.
“I will go get my noonim.”
Paseton had a stiff expression as he reported to Cale that he would return with his sister.
Cale had informed Paseton on their way over that the people helping the mermaids were a large organization that even had the balls to lead the Plaza Terror Incident in the Roan Kingdom’s capital.
“Sure, make it fast.”
“Yes sir. Hais Island 1 is part of the Whale territory, so the mermaids will not come.”
“Alright.”
Paseton bowed before quickly leaving the island. Archie and the other Whale did not even look back as they followed behind Paseton.
“Young master-nim, should I set up the tents?”
“Yes. Move Ron once you are done.”
“Yes sir.”
The Wolf, Maes, answered confidently before heading over to Lock and Hilsman. Lock, the Wolf King’s successor, was currently patting Hilsman’s back. Hilsman was busy vomiting from being seasick.
Soon enough, Rosalyn, Maes, and the rest set up a couple tents near Hais Island 1’s coast. Naturally, Cale did not help and simply watched them do all the work.
Choi Han was standing in front of Cale because Cale had called him over.
“Choi Han.”
“Yes, Cale-nim.”
“I think it is better to be selfish than allow any of our people to get hurt.”
Cale’s goal was to quietly get out without getting hurt from the Whales’ battle with the mermaids.
“But there is something we must do this time.”
There was something Cale needed to tell Choi Han before the Whales returned.
“You remember the mage from the Plaza Terror Incident?”
Choi Han’s expression stiffened up. The blood crazy mage, Redika. Choi Han had cut his arm off.
Cale quietly whispered to Choi Han.
“He is the only one who managed to see Ron’s face. There are two things that I believe are most important in this operation.”
Choi Han made eye contact with Cale.
“First is to cure Ron of the mermaid poison and second is to get rid of any potential threat to Ron or any of us in the future. You understand what I mean?”
Choi Han answered without any hesitation.
“I will either destroy that mage’s other eye or kill him.”
He then added on.
“Beacrox will want to do it, but I think it is better for me to do it. He is currently too emotional to be rational.”
Choi Han knew exactly what he had to do. Ron ended up that way because he did not manage to kill Redika last time. He had no qualms about killing people anymore.
It wasn’t that it pained him to do so, but it didn’t matter if those bastards died, no, it would be better if those bastards were dead.
“No, there is no need to overdo it and kill him. I don’t have any thoughts about dirtying our hands.”
“It will not be very difficult.”
Cale knew that Choi Han was a good person, but that he had no qualms about killing.
However, Cale did not want to put any blood on his hands if possible. He didn’t care if that was unfair.
“Choi Han, my plan is-.”
It was at that moment.
Splash-
Cale heard a loud splashing noise.
Cale closed his mouth as a bloody scent filled his nose.
He turned his head toward the water.
“Wow.”
There was a person who really used that stupid method to fight.
Well, a Whale, not a person.
The large Humpback Whale, Witira, the future Queen of the Whales.
She was covered in blood. She seemed to have been fighting against the mermaids using her blood.
“Young master Cale, nice to see you again.”
However, her voice was still very calm.
At that moment, Raon started to speak in Cale’s mind.
- I am great and mighty, so I do not want to use blood like that! And you definitely cannot do that!
Raon was very adamant.
- Human, hurry up and give me the Magic Stones. I will make even a hundred Magic Bombs if you want!
Cale had hundreds of the highest-grade Magic Stones that were said to be extremely destructive, as well as Raon and Rosalyn.
“Choi Han.”
Cale walked toward Witira as he spoke in a quiet voice that only Choi Han could hear. It was a task for a few people.
“Aren’t you good at stealth?”
The name of the plan was, ‘Reflection.’
Return everything they received. There was nothing worse or more annoying than having the same thing you did being done to you.
