~Boom!
A loud sound came from one of the ships nearby, causing Kardinal Ratum and his men to frown grimly.
What the hell was that?
From Ratum's ship, he couldn't see what had happened to the ship a little further away, so he could only wait for the word to get yelled across ship by ship until it reached him.
Nonetheless, this didn't stop his brain from going to work.
The loud cracking sound of wood breaking, could only mean that one of his ships had taken a hit.
But from what?
Ratum's eyes darted around uncontrollably as he felt like he was slowly losing control over things.
Could it be underwater sea creatures planning to drag them down below?
Dammit! Who would've known that his downfall might be sea creatures?
But.. But... This didn't make any sense!
At this time of the year, there shouldn't be any massive sea creatures here that would resurface now.
So what was going on here?
