Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

"Although I don't know exactly what's going on, the position of boss is very important. How can it be entrusted to someone else so easily?"

None of these people knew the girl's name; they thought she was someone who had suddenly appeared.

Only after the Lord's Curse was explained did everyone understand that it really was their creator.

"This, this is unbelievable. We were created by humans."

Those who cursed were very surprised. They had always thought of themselves as the most spiritual beings in the world. To have existed until now and possess such great strength was simply to be the chosen ones of heaven.

To be a curse was an honor for them, but they never imagined that they would be created in this way.

"Was that really our creator?"

One of the curses asked incredulously, expressing his doubt that it was such an astonishing thing to be able to witness one's own creator.

This was even more unacceptable to those who were under the influence of the curse.

"The lord cursed."

“That’s right, she is indeed your creator, and she created many more curses before. Now it seems that her power has already surpassed those curses.”

Since the arrival of this girl, Ron's battle with those curses seems to have come to an end; at least for now, those curses have no intention of bothering Ron anymore.

Ron and the others immediately stepped back, intending to discuss the matter further.

Taichiro said.

"Could that really be the creator of the curse?"

Ron nodded and said.

“That’s right. When I accidentally entered the world through that door, I was attacked by many monsters. I never expected that these monsters were created by that girl. The aura emanating from those monsters was almost exactly the same as those curses, so I can conclude that these curses were indeed created by her.”

Taiichiro was shocked. If that were the case, it would mean that the other side would definitely favor his race, which would be extremely detrimental to humanity.

He said.

"So what should we do now? Should we continue attacking them?"

Ron shook his head and said.

"We still don't know the woman's true strength, so we must let her demonstrate her abilities before we make a decision."

Although Ron had fought the woman in the world inside that gate before, it was only a brief encounter, and Ron was not able to clearly understand the woman's strength.

Moreover, there are many factors interfering there. Therefore, their true strength may not necessarily be what they perceive.

Taichiro nodded.

"In that case, I'll give it a try."

As he was about to push open the door and leave, Ron blocked his way.

"Now is not the time. She is with those curses. If we attack her now, we will likely be attacked by those curses."

Although Taiichiro was wary of those curses, now he was even more eager to know just how strong the girl really was.

He nodded and said.

"In that case, let's observe her secretly."

So they quietly slipped into the town again, hiding in the shadows to observe the movements of the cursed ones.

But ever since that woman appeared, the actions of these curses have become very strange. They often gather together and then do some inexplicable things that even Ron can't understand.

Taiichiro looked at Ron with some surprise.

"What are they doing?"

Ron shook his head and said.

"It looks like they're performing a ritual or worshipping something."

Taichiro said.

"These curses... do they still have their faith after seeing their own gods?"

Ron shook his head. At least for now, he hadn't seen any belief behind those curses, but the scene before him proved that the other party was indeed performing a ritual.

In front of their ritual was a huge statue, and Ron and Taiichiro couldn't make out what it looked like.

"What is that thing? It looks a bit like a curse, but more like that girl."

Ron said suddenly.

Taiichiro stared at the statue, seemingly lost in thought. Ron could tell that Taiichiro appeared to be studying the statue.

Ron said.

"Have they really begun to sacrifice that woman? But she is clearly standing in front of them. What will they think when they learn that their creator is just an ordinary human being?"

Taiichiro shook his head. He didn't understand such behavior. At least in his opinion, he would be devastated if he knew that his creator was just an ordinary human.

But to everyone's surprise, instead of collapsing, those curses have become even more active.

Just then, they suddenly saw a woman not far away.

The woman was now dressed in exquisite attire, looking as if she had stepped out of a painting. She moved slowly, surrounded by many curses.

Ron saw this and said.

"What on earth is going on here? What are they trying to do?"

Taiichiro shook his head. He still couldn't determine the intentions behind these curses, but one thing he was certain of: they were definitely plotting something.

Taichiro said.

"The first thing that woman said when she stepped out was that she would lead them to regain their honor. Now it seems that they may very well turn against us humans."

Ron nodded, agreeing with the woman's actions; he shared this view, he said.

"But what should we do now? Should we take action immediately?"

Taiichiro shook his head.

"I think we must wait and see for now."

In the days that followed, Ron and Taichiro would frequently search for the woman's whereabouts in the vicinity.

They could see that the woman was living a more and more comfortable life, and that she was beginning to control the curses to build various palaces.

These curses were incredibly powerful and numerous; within moments, palaces were erected one after another.

Ron was dumbfounded by what he saw. He could hardly believe that she was dreaming of being an empress. She probably wanted to rule over all the curses here and then establish her own dynasty.

Thinking of this, Ron chuckled to himself, never expecting that the other party had such great ambitions.

Taiichiro was puzzled when he saw Ron smiling.

"What are you laughing at? Don't you feel scared? This thing is starting to target humans; it's obvious she wants to rule the world."

Ron laughed.

"That's unlikely. All she's done is rule over those curses. It's clear she has that dream now, but it will soon be shattered."

At this point, Ron clenched his fist.

"We absolutely cannot let the curse truly stand over our heads."

Taiichiro nodded, indicating that he would support Ron's decision no matter what.

"But what should we do now?"

Ron said.

"Of course it's about causing trouble."

Through their investigation, they learned that the curses would transport a batch of supplies to other places overnight.

Ron said.

"This batch of supplies must be very important, otherwise he wouldn't have sent more than a dozen curses to transport it. That would be a waste of his talents."

Taiichiro nodded, and that night they lay in ambush at that crucial point.

Soon they saw several cursed figures carrying a carriage rapidly approaching in their direction.

Ron said.

"It's them. Can you guess what's in there?"

Taiichiro shook his head; so far, he knew nothing about what the curses had done.

Although they had been secretly investigating for a long time, they did not expect that the curses had hidden these messages very well. Even the most ordinary curses had no idea what their plan was.

Ron and Taiichiro came out with several people, but Ron couldn't get the answers they wanted from them. The things that these curses were carrying must be very important, so they decided that they had to get them tonight.

As the curses were about to reach Ron and the others, Ron suddenly whispered something.

"Now's the time, let's get started."

Before he finished speaking, Ron had already rushed out, unleashing his full power. The cursed energy suddenly formed on his body, and a terrifying energy slammed into the ground in an instant.

The cursed ones had no idea that Ron and his group would attack here, and they were thrown into chaos.

However, these curses were very powerful, so they quickly adjusted their state and launched a counterattack against Ron and the others.

These curses were quite powerful, which is why Ron was able to suppress them before, but now they were quickly overpowered.
