The aircraft carrier along with its fleet travel through the unknown sea as they gasp of disbelief.
Just three hours ago, captured enemy prisoner spoke about being subjects of the coastal country called Kingdom of Federica located northwest from their position. They were told that they sent a message to them and will surely bring terror to Leonardo's fleet as soon as they reveal themselves.
With the sunk enemy warship, Leonardo saw this as a bluff and merely scoff before leaving the man. They commit no interrogation that will hurt its convict proving difficult to extract information.
Currently, they're traveling to standard 30 knots as they still investigate their location. The warship that was left behind to guard the mist reported the disappearance of it and hence their search for a way out.
It has been three days since the disappearance of the mist and their accommodates has been running low. Probably because of the mouths they need to feed for better performance.
Leonardo sigh as he reach for the radio and order his man to be vacation for he needs a rest. Three full days since they arrive and three full days without sleep, if he were to further ignore his needs, he might soon starts to hallucinate.
The sun starts to set yet still no land or shore was found, some crews are starting to panic as they knew their lives are at stake specially when they are far from their homeland. Their morale is getting low.
The search for mist seems to have been set aside for now according to Leonardo's report and a search for land was prioritize. However, despite the change of course, his people are still panicking.
Until a land appear.
Though still unrest, people's mood starts to improve. They were relieve and starts to prepare for docking.
Although the shore does not have docking port, they have small boats such as supply ship.
"Order our men to stay cautious, be prepared for anything. I have a bad feeling about this, this place is too dark and silent."
"Yes, sir!"
Ships' armaments prepared and aa gun also loaded. All weapons ready to be fired as other crew rest ashore.
"They're having too much fun."
"To release some stress, sir. We've been here for quite some time. Perhaps too long to be not worried."
"Perhaps,"
Felix excuse himself and left the admiral to his lonesome and planned to join his subordinates.
Leonardo on the other hand keeps his eyes open after resting for seven hours. He has enough rest to stay awake for the night and help his men guard the vicinity.
-----
Three hundred ships battle stationed within the Port city of Pearl. Six of these ships are capitals' and within those six carries the royal family.
"You shouldn't be here, your majesty. If something happens to you, I will be held accoutable."
"Why, do you want me to die here?"
"Of course not, your majesty. It's just that, if you order us to prepare such heavy fleet, the enemy must be a threat. You being here is a threat alone to our sovereignty."
The King scoff and reassure his men.
"Worry not, I'm here knowing what it will cost me. That's why I left my son taking the king's task at my behest. And soon enough, he will be the ruler. Such thing will be an practice for him. Now, prepare!"
It's been the fourth day since the message were sent and as soon as morning came they were all ordered to prepared. Some are even sleepy and not fully functional, yet it didn't stop them from protecting their city.
Complete silence as they await for their enemy. All guns aimed towards the sea. And that's when a fast moving bird-like object appear a thousand feet above them.
All of them were surprised as some even stare with this disbelief.
Even their eyes can't catch on towards the unknown flying object.
"I-It was them."
Within a cabin, his hand shook and drop his tea. His eyes stare far from what's in front of him as he order his man to prepare for battle.
His family also look at him with a worried expression.
"That sound, is that them?"
"No, it's one of them."
