Ivita could see the sincerity in his words; he really did want a family member to stay by his side, but Ivita shook her head, "A group of sailors and captains have said the same thing to me before."
"But there are people on Cross Island who owe me, and no one can owe me without repaying. If they don't pay me back voluntarily, they will pay ten times the price to compensate for my loss."
Germanicus gave a bitter smile. "Well, take this."
He surprisingly handed the Compass, which he'd won in the pirate duel that afternoon, to Ivita.
Ivita took the glass-surfaced Compass, which had a slight crack, and stared at it for a moment.
It was the item she had wanted to trade with Germanicus.
But before she could voice her trade, he had handed it to her.
Since coming to this world, she had always been trading with others. But the person in front of her, who was of the same age and recognized as an emperor by The Church in name, had spontaneously given her this item.
