In the captain's bedroom, in the largest aquarium in the back room.
A beautiful figure was swimming inside.
Her upper body was a beautiful human female figure, with exquisite and attractive features.
A head of blue hair drifted in the aquarium's seawater, emitting a faint glow.
Clearly different from the hair of ordinary land-based life.
The upper body's clothing was made of so shells and unknown fabrics, but it was not conservative.
From the chest and abdon down, her navel was completely exposed, and there were symtrical magic patterns above.
Extending down to the arm, appearing intermittently in the seawater.
The lower body was a fish tail, or more like a dolphin's tail, but with scales flashing with a faint magic light.
The tail had ribbon-like fins, similar to a goldfish.
"rmaid?" Kane said in confusion.
The figure of this creature was exactly like the rmaid in Kane's impression.
There was almost no difference.
Kane rembered that in the Mist World, there was also such a race as rmaids, and they were Kreya's kin.
Also a branch of the semi-human race.
They simply lived in the ocean, but even so, they had deep connections with the country that was Kreya and her family's holand.
This rmaid, with a face full of fear and anger, shouted at Kane and the others.
"Let out at once, you damned humans. My mother will not let you go."
As she spoke, she shrank into the corner of the aquarium, covering her face and crying.
Seeing this situation, Kane explained, "I think you might be mistaken; we are not the ones who captured you. The pirate who captured you has already been dealt with by us. We can let you out now."
"Really?"
Upon hearing Kane's words, she imdiately swam over and leaned against the glass tank.
Her tone was full of excitent.
Before Kane could respond, she started expressing her gratitude.
"Thank you so much, you're such a good person."
A good person didn't quite sound like a complint to Kane, but it was so innocent.
She believed him just because he said so casually.
He then reassured her, "It's okay now, don't worry."
Beside him, Kreya turned her head to look at Kane and remarked on his deanor, "You don't really believe her, do you?"
"Huh?" He didn't imdiately grasp what Kreya ant.
"You're probably thinking she's so innocent and easy to fool, right?" Kreya rolled her eyes and said.
"Huh? Isn't that so?"
Listening to Kreya's words, Kane asked in confusion. For that's precisely what he thought.
He really didn't see anything suspicious about this rmaid maiden, and her power level was only mid-tier Silver.
The Divine Gaze also didn't foresee any danger.
Nor did he feel that the excitent the maiden showed just now had any falsehood to it.
But since Kreya actually said that, it seed this rmaid maiden was certainly not simple.
And with Kreya being a semi-human too, maybe she knew many secrets that Kane was unaware of.
Seeing Kane's curious gaze, Kreya walked over to the aquarium and tapped on the glass tank.
"Stop pretending. Though I don't know why soone like you was caught by those people, the patterns on your abdon and the demon pattern on your shoulder have already exposed you."
After hearing Kreya's words, the rmaid maiden paused in confusion but then dropped the act. Her whole deanor changed.
From the innocent, naive maiden before, she instantly shifted to a matured and cunning temperant.
?
What is this?
Kane was taken aback by this sight.
Is it possible for soone's deanor to change so dramatically?
It was just a slight change in expression and movent, but her whole deanor made a total and completely opposite transformation.
If it was acting, Kane could hardly believe it. This change seed more like so kind of magic.
A thod similar to an illusion.
At this point, Kreya explained, "A race like rmaids is born with a strong magic talent, and they naturally possess illusion talent."
She then pointed to the rmaid in the aquarium.
"Look at her navel area, the patterns, and the patterns that extend from her shoulders, indicating that her entire upper body is covered in magic patterns that appear and disappear."
"These are proofs of her power; she is at least a golden-level powerhouse on par with Raphael and others."
Kreya's last sentence seed to convey so very hidden information, as the rmaid in the aquarium frowned, then waved her hand, causing the entire aquarium to shatter.
Although the aquarium shattered, the seawater within didn't gush out but ford a surging wave-like shape supporting the rmaid.
Keeping the rmaid's tail always in the water.
At this mont, the patterns on the rmaid's navel, abdon, and the extensions from her shoulders were more radiant than before.
This rmaid also held a blue-gold trident in her hand, adorned with spiral patterns, shells, and pearls.
She exuded an aura, frowning, she questioned Kreya, "Who are you, and how do you know secrets only known to the rfolk royal family?"
Because only mbers of the rfolk royal family inherently possess these patterns and talents.
Whenever she uses magic or abilities related to magic, these patterns appear.
This further enhances their magic talent and the potency of their magic.
Seeing this rmaid seem ready to make a move, Kane and the others were not going to hold back either.
Kreya and Kane directly projected their own aura, pressing it onto the rmaid in front of them.
As for Kreya, it was easier to handle, rely letting the rmaid feel the pressure, signifying that this centaur woman in front of her was stronger.
However, the aura emanating from Kane, who had been deceived by her performance earlier, caused her to instinctively start trembling all over.
She silently withdrew the trident in her hand, indicating that she bore no hostility.
Seeing her submit, Kreya responded, "We are explorers, from the Mist World, where we are considered the sa race across large expanses."
"Additionally, I've interacted with many mbers of the rfolk royal family from outside; it's not really a secret."
This kind of secret was actually nothing worth hiding; it might just serve as a point of exposure when hiding strength.
The rest, instead, acted as a rather nice adornnt.
Even a testant of noble lineage.
"You are explorers? The ones the Mist speaks of?"
Kreya nodded: "Indeed, those explorers."
Seeing the two still engaged in conversation, Kane interrupted, "Though it's quite rude, I must say this is not the place for chatting, particularly since we're in a hurry."
"Alright, let's head back." Kreya turned her head and left the room with Kane, heading towards the deck.
The rmaid followed them up.
Once they reached the deck, they saw Lily Lu playing with a pocket watch in her hand.
Upon seeing Kane and the others co up, she instantly appeared on Kane's shoulder in a flash.
Then curiously stared at the rmaid following behind them.
"Who is this pretty sister?"
Upon hearing Lily Lu's words, the rmaid smiled and said, "My na is Miralina, you can just call that."
"A half-breed with a fishtail? This is the first ti Lily Lu has seen one, then aren't you from the sa race as Sister Kreya."
Casually exchanging a few words, she then turned her attention back to the pocket watch in her hand, ignoring the newly appeared character.
It seed like her race really belonged to the sa one as this centaur maiden in the outside world.
Thought the rmaid maiden as she listened to Lily Lu.
But it couldn't be confird yet.
Then she asked Kane and the others, "May I accompany you for a while? I'm quite curious about the outside world and the explorers.
Of course, this is my token of thanks."
As she spoke, a fist-sized pearl, flashing with light, suddenly appeared in the rmaid's hand.
Then she handed it to Kane.
Seeing her gesture, Kane didn't imdiately accept it, but furrowed his brows and pondered.
Ocean race, or a royal family mber of a certain race?
With strength comparable to Raphael, she should hold a significant position.
With this in mind, Kane nodded, "No need for a token of thanks, if you wish to travel with us, do co along."
Hearing Kane's response, Miralina smiled and nodded, "Thank you."
Given her status, it might be useful in the future, forming an acquaintance wasn't a bad idea.
Then the group returned to the Lantern Ship.
Lily Lu opened the pocket watch, and the magic sailboat, now severely damaged, turned into a stream of light and entered the pocket watch.
While the tiny sculpture inside the pocket watch started to flash with a faint light, it too appeared to have damage similar to the overturned boat.
Seeing Kane and the others return, the people on the ship gathered around, and then their attention all focused on Miralina, who followed behind Kane and the others.
To be precise, it was focused on her fishtail.
"A half-breed from the rfolk? Quite rare, are they an explorer?" Raphael asked, sowhat curious.
In the Mist World's sea-born races, most are responsible for the underwater mist dungeons.
The vast ocean area is not for display, with many dungeons being under the sea, naturally appearing in the ocean.
Compared to terrestrial races, oceanic races have more advantages in exploration.
They can be occasionally seen on land, just quite rare.
Only when encountering rare dungeons with special traits do they appear.
Just like terrestrial races appearing in oceanic mist dungeons.
Only when a dungeon's value is truly imnse might such situations occur.
Just like the dungeon Kane and the others went through that helped explorers stuck at a bottleneck break through.
These types of dungeons are rare opportunities, once known, even if not very suitable, they must be tried.
Kane shook his head and explained, "This lady is nad Miralina, a royal mber of a certain rfolk race in these seas, and she will be traveling with us for so distance."
Upon hearing Kane's introduction, everyone smiled kindly at Miralina and nodded.
However, they weren't overly interested.
If she were an ocean race explorer, their interest might be greater.
They could learn more about those oceanic mist and dungeons compared to land-based ones.
It's a common conversation topic when oceanic and terrestrial races et.
And one both sides find intriguing.
After all, in their respective areas, those are rarely seen.
Though their interest in Miralina decreased, Miralina's interest in them was significant.
Later, Kane constructed a fish tank filled with seawater at the bottom of the yacht.
The material used was no different from the outside, but the entire thing was made transparent.
For her to rest in.
Through Kane's thods, she gained a new impression.
Yet, it didn't seem to explain why the aura she emitted could make her tremble.
