Chapter 128
Ghost Ship
It was already decided that we would deal with the ghost ship, but the problem was how we would accomplish that.
And so I first asked Marco Polo, since he was knowledgeable about the sea.
“Marco. About this ghost ship, how strong is their fighting force?”
“It is in fact, a small fleet of five ships. And they are commanded by the pirate with red hair and burning eyes, Francis Rosnay.”
“So you even know his name. There is something dashing about it, too.”
“Aye, he was once a human. But he gave his heart to Demon King Dagon, and became an undying monster. He then captured the ghost ship that was said to only appear once every few hundred years, and he became its captain.”
“He seems larger than life. Someone who won’t be taken down easily. So, is he interfering with the trade routes as a way of supporting Dagon?”
“I believe so. After all, the reformists are gaining momentum because of it. Those routes are the lifeline of the city.”
