So strange!
I've actually ended up walking with the people from the [Nine Commandnts eting].
Especially now that the other side is quite willing, even actively inviting into their territory.
Following the Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting], we moved cautiously on the island.
Ronald's feelings were quite delicate.
His original plan was just to find a suitable identity here and then infiltrate the [Nine Commandnts eting]'s territory.
But who could have predicted—
By a twist of fate, I've ended up on this path!
This developnt might bring so unexpected troubles. However, being brought into the territory as one of their own by the [Nine Commandnts eting] is undoubtedly much better than a forged identity.
On this aspect, Ronald's ntal preparation was well done.
So he didn't reveal any flaws along the way.
However, whenever he glanced at Costate, he found that his maid's eyes sotis lost control, obviously she wasn't yet accustod to controlling her emotions.
This was also noticed by the Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting] during their flight.
But they interpreted this reaction as fear of the situation, so they didn't grow suspicious.
For the next two hours, the five of them circled the island.
They only chose to act in safe locations, and would only risk crossing through difficult areas when necessary.
Concerned about the condition of their other companions.
Eve wanted to check on her companions in the island's town.
But before she even got close, she saw from a distance several bodies hanging from a flagpole.
Eve barely escaped with the help of the [Nine Commandnts eting].
But the others weren't so lucky.
These people were executed on the spot by the enraged pirates and hung up as a warning, declaring the outco of disrupting the death duel.
Seeing this, Eve almost collapsed.
Betrayed by her best friend, the death of her husband, and the loss of her most loyal companions, her heart was hit repeatedly. Even if she could rely on her past trained strong ntal state, it was now truly difficult to endure.
Under the double tornt of unhealed body injuries and ntal blows.
Eve directly lost consciousness, and could only continue forward being escorted by the Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting].
Carrying a woman who couldn't move.
Naturally, their party was delayed quite a bit.
It wasn't until late at night that they circled past a squad of night-patrolling pirates and approached the side of the dock.
Disguised under his assud identity, Ronald proactively asked the Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting]:
"Masters, do we have a way to escape?"
Hearing this question, the two Casters from the [Nine Commandnts eting] exchanged a glance.
Previously adhering to agreents, even risking their lives, looking totally unlike villains, the [Nine Commandnts eting] now gave a response that aligned more with their identity:
"Find a ship that's easy to sail, barge in, control them, and then escape."
"The harbor here doesn't have any blocking capability, as long as we act quickly, we can leave this island."
"..."
Ronald was silent for a mont.
Considering the thods he had witnessed the [Nine Commandnts eting] using, the ship capture and control they ntioned undoubtedly involved harming innocents.
Thinking of this, Ronald imdiately made a decision:
"Regarding this — I actually have a reconnaissance spell that's quite handy, should we scout out first?"
"That couldn't be better!" The Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting] showed no doubt, "Choose a small ship with few people and easy to control, the night also makes it easier to be stealthy!"
At this mont, the Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting] even admired Ronald quite a bit.
Because this man, not only willing to risk his life to help kill the King of the South Sea, now can even assist in their escape.
Such a young man is undoubtedly a welco talent!
On the other side, Ronald acted quickly.
He softly recited an incantation, and reconnaissance magic quickly spread across the dock.
To be honest, the current situation was a bit bad.
Because of the unexpected death of the King of the South Sea tonight, most people on the island were alerted, every ship had soone on guard, many even fully ard.
To seize a ship without engaging — very difficult!
But Ronald was different.
Rembering earlier encounters upon entering here, he quickly had an idea and imdiately spoke up:
"Gentlen, I've found sothing interesting!"
"There's a small dock to the left of the harbor, it's where the pilot ships are used, they're plenty in number, not heavily guarded, and the ships are small and easy to sail, let's choose this!"
The Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting] also arrived by ship.
When Ronald presented this plan, recalling their own experiences, they naturally had no objections.
So they imdiately chose to support it, incidentally complinting Ronald a few tis.
Then they carried the still-unconscious Eve along.
They imdiately began their operation.
The distance from their hiding place to the dock wasn't too great. But because of the patrols on the island, they had to move cautiously, taking quite a bit of ti.
Ronald took this opportunity to start his operation.
The so-called lack of heavy guard, that was just his made-up lie.
It's just that the distance to the pilot ships was far enough, facilitating his slow planning, so he chose that.
Thus, at the other end of their target, Ronald began using mood-influencing spells.
What mood were the people at the dock in now?
After the incident of the King of the South Sea's death, everyone's nerves were tense. Patrol guards naturally beca sensitive and suspicious, wanting to clarify any movent.
In such tense emotions, Ronald's guidance went rather smoothly.
In just half an hour, conflicts began to erupt on the other side of the dock, causing quite a commotion.
And the guards at the pilot ship side naturally noticed the situation over there.
Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't leave their post without permission.
But under extre emotional influence, these people beca increasingly concerned with the noise on the other side, quickly losing patience and heading towards the source of disturbance.
Everyone's spirit was taut in the night.
The ergence of such a disturbance was also noticed by the Caster from the [Nine Commandnts eting].
They, however, had no idea about the cause of the events unfolding, and upon discovering the situation, imdiately showed an expression of delight:
"They're making a move over there!"
"This is the best opportunity now, let's hurry!"
Ronald cooperated, pretending to be completely oblivious:
"Indeed, this is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity, let's try not to make any noise that would draw them over."
Under the cover of darkness, Ronald and the others moved quickly across the dock.
The rest went more smoothly.
Unlike the ships with owners, these island-registered vessels, for the pilots, serve as their workplace. Unless there's work to do at night, why linger at the 'office'?
So in the absence of the guards.
By the ti Ronald and the others arrived, they were virtually undisturbed, easily taking control of a ship.
