The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

80. Dragon’s Nest (4)

Unfortunately, however, the aim failed and it slightly missed. Should I be satisfied with the storm fish half gone?

“I am the man of the sea!”

Ted’s thunderous roar, the thunder really hitting far away, the raging rainstorm with no visibility.

We were fighting in the middle.

It didn’t make sense. It’s hard to open your eyes properly. Heavy raindrops hit the whole body.

“Ha ha ha! Sailors do not break!”

Even after seeing Arthur’s golden magic, Ted wasn’t surprised and repeated the same thing.

The storm fish hit us once and passed us by. On the rocking boat, sick from motion sickness, I cut through the men approaching Ted.

Dozens of storm fish were sliced away with a single sword. But couldn’t stop them all. Headbutting the bodies of fish flying like arrows!

It worked great!

Fortunately, we managed to avoid Stormshark, the leader leading them from the center. Being bitten by him would be like being bitten by a shark.

A group of storm fish that brushed past us turned around and took their stance. They flapped their fins like wings.

Soon he will hit again with a torso butt.

“grandfather! I have to catch the guy in the middle so they back off.”

“Know! Next time I’ll break his spine!”

Ted glared at the shark in the center of the school of fish.

“yes! Right. It’s him! Show the power of a sailor!”

“OK! I won’t show you!”

“Sea people don’t break with things like this!”

“Of course! This is the power of an old man!”

Stormshark rushed along with the storm fish and launched a second attack. It was fast paced.

“Wow!”

Ted swung the oar with a thunderous spirit.

Kwajik!

The oars are broken. The seaman does not break, but the oars seem to break.

one, it’s okay Stormshark also seemed surprisingly fatally wounded. I threw the dagger at the shivering shark.

Knock!

A dagger imbued with blue magic pierced the shark’s fin. The shark hit by the dagger fell into the sea by inertia.

The boat rocked loudly in the waves created by the fall. This caused Vivian to be thrown overboard and almost drowned in the sea.

I hurriedly reached out and grabbed Vivian’s wrist.

“it’s okay? Vivian?”

“… Ah yes! I’m OK. What about the young lady?”

After hoisting Vivian onto the deck, she found Sepia. Sepia was exhausted holding on to the bow.

As the Stormshark fell, the stormfish soon sank into the sea. I sat down on the deck as if exhausted.

I couldn’t catch the rest of them anyway.

“Good job everyone! It was especially great. Grandpa Ted!”

This isn’t a lie, it’s the truth.

Because Ted did his best to catch the shark. Ted, who grabbed the spare oar, rowed again. Arthur and I took up the oars again.

“But how much further do we have to go?”

I almost had to scream because of the sound of the pouring rain.

“You are almost there! We are here!”

The ship was constantly moving forward. It was still pouring rain. It wasn’t strange that the boat capsized. If it flips over, everyone is dead. There is no doubt about this.

“Okay! Coming soon!”

“uh?”

I saw that the world became clear in an instant. It didn’t rain anymore, and the boat didn’t shake. It felt like my mouth was about to open.

The world was so peaceful and quiet.

I can’t even imagine that there has been a storm so far.

It reached the eye of the hurricane. At the same time, the entrance to Atlan was visible.

“It has arrived! Kids, we’ve arrived!”

A huge sinkhole was visible in the sea. We are on our way to that sinkhole. Unlike the surrounding sea, the sinkhole was distinctly dark blue.

Sepia struggled to get up.

“Wow… . Right here… .”

“It’s been 20 years. Yes, this is the entrance to Atlan! It’s the Atlanta Blue Hole!”

As if recalling memories, the old man explained.

“But how do we get to Atlanta now?”

Sepia asked.

How can I get there, I have to dive into that blue hole.

Soon, Sepia seemed to have figured out how to enter.

“no way… . Hey, you don’t have to fall over there, do you?”

“Of course I have to go in there!”

“… Can’t I swim?”

“Go into the arms of the men of your party.”

I looked at Arthur and Vivian. Arthur knows how to swim, and Vivian doesn’t. Wouldn’t it be possible to be an all-round maid?

“I know how to swim. Ethan, take care of the lady.”

“Let’s go in! To a new world!”

Ted took off his shirt with a cry. He jumped into the sea first. I also took off my top and prepared to jump in.

“You jump in? over there? Is everyone real?”

“Of course. Or will you go back through the storm?”

While Sepia was restless, Vivian whispered something to Sephia. Sepia’s expression brightened for a moment.

“What are you talking about?”

“Ethan, this is a women’s secret.”

Ah yes. Would you like to

I put the lead ball and sword I was kicking into the shadows. Even if it was spilled in the sea, it cannot be found. Lead is not a diver, so of course it gets in the way of swimming.

“Hold my throat because I have to dive sepia.”

“uh? uh uh yes!”

Arthur smiled at us.

“Take care, both of you. I’ll go first.”

After speaking, Arthur got into the sea. Vivian winked at me and signaled me to go first. It seemed that he was following us and preparing for any possible situation.

“Hold tight.”

“Uh, yeah.”

I carried sepia on my back and went straight into the sea.

* * *

“Puha!”

He raised his head above the surface.

I was finally able to breathe the breath I had been holding back. After a lot of hard work, we were able to reach the entrance of Atlan.

When I came out to the ground, the passage of the cave was long.

“Hey, come down now. It’s suffocating.”

“Oh, I was going down anyway!”

The feeling of Sepia’s voluptuous breasts touching her back was gone. After finally reaching Vivian on the ground, we followed Ted.

I took a ball of lead and a knife from the shadows and kicked them.

“But what is it? A sandbag?”

“Everything is like that.”

Sepia made a pouty expression. Either way, I’ve had lead balls kicked around my wrists, ankles, and waist. After training with Master, it was a lump of lead that I always wore except when sleeping or washing up.

“If it’s training, why don’t you wear armor instead?”

“It is a lump of special alloy lead. It is heavier than most metals.”

According to Master, it is. Thanks to that, it has a higher density than most metals.

“But, Mr. Ted. You seem to have had quite a bit of adventure when you were young. You said you also visited Atlanta… .”

Arthur asked out of curiosity.

“Even if I look like this, it’s only once in a while. I fought by tearing off the leg of a Kraken that was attacking with a deep-sea fishing boat with my bare hands!”

Arthur nodded his head and listened to the nonsense that anyone could see. After all, our protagonist… .

“Once upon a time, I was the one who went to the desert country ‘Schumann’ on a boat!”

His past explained in the original story is roughly like this.

Growing up as a seaman, Ted yearned for adventure. So, as soon as he turned 20, he boarded an adventure ship, met a pirate, and served as a slave on a pirate ship for 7 years.

At that time, like the chance of a genius, there was a chance to escape from the pirate ship.

Real man Ted cut the captain’s throat and escaped. They escape and reach the desert country of Schumann in the southeast. Afterwards, he likes the place and settles down for a while, going up and down several boats there.

He must have lived in Schumann for about 10 years like that.

Then, on the way home, he met a storm and was wrecked, and then went to Atlan. That was a story from 20 years ago.

The explanation of the original work is that he took pride as a sailor because there are such ups and downs in life.

“So, how was my adventure!”

And sure enough.

While walking down the street, he recounted his past.

“What those pirates were after was the treasure of Treasure Island! But not one pirate was after the treasure!”

After seven days of battle and adventure, Ted’s pirates move the treasure of Treasure Island to the pirate ship.

“I took advantage of the hectic moment and decapitated the enemy commander! It was a time when the battle was fierce. and shouted! stop everyone! I cut your captain’s throat!”

As a result, Ted went from being a scavenger slave at a pirate ship terminal to becoming a combat agent and full-fledged sailor.

In this way, the Redbeard Pirates, to which Ted belonged, were able to monopolize the treasure.

Then he meets the navy.

“And in that battle I avenged myself! I finally decapitated Redbeard, who had enslaved me for seven years!”

Maybe Redbeard was betrayed. After being rescued by the Navy, Ted decides to stay with Schumann for a while.

After experiencing a new world like that, I boarded the ship again.

The story was coming to an end. It meant that this aisle was coming to an end.

“And I met a storm on my way home. I met a dragon there!”

The cave reverberated at Ted’s cry. Finally, I remembered something to check.

“Arthur, look at the eggs.”

The egg was stored in Arthur’s inventory to avoid being swept away by the storm. And if I remember correctly, the egg should hatch around this time.

Arthur took the egg out of his inventory.

When others see it, it will look like it was taken out of a subspace. Now that we’ve arrived in Atlan, the egg should hatch in response to Arthur’s magic, but… .

Strangely enough, Al didn’t even move.

what. Is it broken?

Or am I missing something?

Could it be that the egg was shocked during the battle and the hatchling died?

“Wait, Arthur, give me some eggs.”

I felt anxious. The most probable and disturbing point is that you fought the brown thief while holding the bag.

“Here, Ethan.”

I got an egg from Arthur. I took the egg to my ear. At that moment, the sound of an egg cracking was heard.

uh… ?

It’s like waking up in response to my magical power. As I turned my head, a deep blue hatchling just popped out of the egg.

“Oh my God, I’m going to see an indigo dragon’s hatchling in my lifetime!”

Ted was amazed. But that wasn’t the point.

“ah… , Dad? Dad!”

Hatchling smiled at me. The hatchling, which was flapping its wings, quickly turned into a three or four-year-old outgoing girl. Hatchlings tend to recognize the first person they see as their parent, and mimic that appearance as a polymorph.

The problem is not that. The point is that the situation is now gem.

It was the first time in my life that I took away the main character’s talent.
