The Lord of the Crime and Mysteries
After saying that title, Father became quiet and went back to his chamber.
"WTF was that?"
Literally, why does that sounds too familiar to the lord of the apocalypse?
Is there any connection between them?
I looked down at the half drunk mercenaries roaming around the deck.
Then, suddenly one fell down the deck; but was pulled up before I could get alarmed.
"Silly, aren't they?"
I sighed but... "Dangerous too. Recovered yet from the effect of the aphrodisiac."
She blushed away and said, "Kind of... leaving that, why did your father allow me to come?"
"I don't know, maybe he doesn't know you were here."
"Impossible, I was standing behind him all this time."
She shook her head in disbelief.
"Who knows, maybe he doesn't care about it at all."
"What if I leak something about the event?"
She zoomed herself to me in disbelief.
"If you mobilize so many men then the king would have to be blind or deaf to not notice... so he doesn't care about you since it is already going to be leaked."
I said while sipping on the drink staple in this ship.
Beer...
"This thing makes me feel weird."
"I know, even I couldn't digest it.", Rishta tried to symphatize.
"I meant it is genuinely good." I cleared.
"Blood of mercenary...", she whispered but I heard those words clearly due to enhanced hearing.
Wait,
My senses are advanced.
I opened the status.
[Name: Illyum Green (Lucien Darknight)]
[Race: Human]

[Preception: 72]
[Stamina: 29/30]
[Divinity: 2000]
I didn't get enough time to test all this.
The bloodline infusion improved my body but I don't know by how much since I got system after I infused.
The perception stats are too high compared to other stats. Is it normal?
"Rishta, how strong are you compared to others?"
"What is logic, here to ask that? "
She gave me a blank look.
I guess it is rude to ask ladies something like that.
"Oh, what is your prowess in swordsmanship and magic compared to your peers?"
I formed a forced smile but the sentence was good enough to gain her approval,
She puffed her chest in pride and said, "Heh, I am quite a genius myself too. I stood first in the entire magic academy while knowing the secret techniques and magics of Rosette family, my peers are incomparable to me. Only royal families and family leaders can match me."
"Then, why were you at a disadvantage against Albert?"
She frowned, "I said ROYAL FAMILY excluded, how could I match a prince with their god defying ability? Those guys how unlimited stamina and that broken ability. That guy is just showing off his golden spoon, I liked what ended up happening to him..."
Her evil visage didn't match her usual kind cuteness.
...
Aren't you living off your family too, then?
But, I didn't dare say that out loud for my sake...
"Wanna duel against me?"
"Haha! Do you think a previous magic researcher could match mage just after one flimsy improvement with the help of tentacles? How long will you think your tentacles will last against me? One second or two?..."
She blabbered on but I didn't focus on her words since it got me thinking again of my improvement.
"It is boring..."
It is getting boring again,
Why doesn't anything interesting happen here?
It has been boring, where is all that hype that god created?
What about the game? Is nobody going to play it?
