Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

...

--A few seconds later--

The group was unarmed with aggrieved expressions.

In the end, they succumbed to these people under their stern eyes.

And now, they felt ashamed.

How could they, trained and well-ranked masters of the Navy, be shaken by a single look from a Butler?

Augh~...

Such a thing must never get out. And even if it did, they would deny it all the way.

Hmph!

Guns were kept aside, and all normies quickly understood that this was not an ordinary phenomenon.

So... So were they about to fight with the supernatural?

The strange noises echoing from the other side only made their skins turn clammy with fright.

It was hard to believe that they, able Navy officers and guards, would one day turn fearful like chickens awaiting slaughter.

But as they say, there\'s always a first time for everything.

Whoosh!

Dorian flicked his hands, giving each normie a single protective charm in the shape of a ruby stone, the size of a small pebble with strange carvings.

"To breathe unaffected, keep the stones with you at all times."

It will purify whatever they took in.

True or false?

Everyone didn\'t care, holding the stones as though they were their babies.

Bho Jin even wanted to swallow it, just in case.

In the end, he kept it in his inner breast pocket, even going as far as zipping it tight.

Say no more. That stone will never leave his body, even after this...

That was what he decided, not knowing it would turn to dust after excessive use.

And in such a heavily rotting atmosphere, it should break down after 24 hours at most.

.

Alright...

With everyone given appropriate warnings, Dorian twirled his fingers, and the ship began sailing in between the cracks, leaving their very ordinary world behind.

Everyone swallowed hard, seeing the ship move without a pilot.

Okay...

They now accepted and came to terms with the fact that magic was real.

But the reputation of this only further cemented the fact that their enemies might not be the human foes they were used to facing.

Old Bho took a deep breath, looking at his grandson deeply.

"What\'s happening now is similar to what happens on our Bho site, right?"

"Yes, Grandpa." Bho Jin answered bitterly. "Do you now see why it was hard to explain?"

Well, Old Bho had to admit that if someone told him such a thing, he would send the person for reexamination, talk less of his grandson.

Such a thing was too fantasy-like and impossible for any sane person to believe.

Thinking like this, his anger from earlier had all dissipated. He even understood why his friends hadn\'t told him a single thing before.

"What a mysterious place." Gia Ming murmured.

They hadn\'t even docked on the island yet, but he and the rest were already getting danger warnings and bells ringing in their minds.

Bam!

The crack closed up.

And now, there was no more turning back.

The strange purple waters emitted a foul stench that left them feeling constantly nauseated. They held their mouths, swearing they weren\'t always this queasy.

If anything, their reactions showed just how bad the rotting smell was.

Look! Even the ship wasn\'t taking it well.

(-_-)

....

Everyone was blown away by the changes they saw.

It\'s barely been a minute since they sailed in. Yet, the ship was rusting at a visible rate.

They even bargain to worry whether they would be able to make it to the shores on time before the ship completely breaks down.

But seeing Dorian\'s calm expression, everyone swallowed their words.

At this time, they realized just how powerful this Youngster was.

Lying trough.

Didn\'t you see him open this crack in space and store the ship forward without a pilot? What\'s more, their hearts told them this youngster was the cause of the storm earlier. So how can they not feel awe and respect towards him?

And just like Old Gia and the lot, they too started calling the youngster Grandmaster.

Sure enough, Old Gia was still as wise as he always was.

So it wasn\'t for nothing that he acknowledged this youngster.

Gia Ming\'s mind spun rapidly.

A while ago, he heard several people in his Gia clan were selected to undergo some special training in a classified location.

He heard Old Gia had time with these people to become one of the teachers there.

He initially thought it was nothing.

But seeing Dorian and the rest, he had a hunch it might\'ve been related to this.

\'So did they leave to learn magic?\'

.

"Look! Look! Over there!"

Saying closer, they spotted a massive cruise ship too rusted to recognize.

F***!

It looked like its parts had stayed in a junkyard for 50 years without care.

So imagine if this was the cruise ship that got lost yesterday?

Old Bho felt it couldn\'t be. That rust was too heavy, and several parts of the ship had broken off and fallen apart too.

Many didn\'t want to conclude on the matter since it was likely that all the ships that vanished over the many creatures along this line might\'ve been swallowed into this space.

Shwah~

The rusting speeding boat sailed along the purplish waters until they finally docked.

Gwack~~~~

A thunderous bellow exposed from the heart of the barren land, crashing everyone\'s hair to stand at attention.

What was that?

Many jumped into battle mode, already on the edge of their seats.

Evil…

This place was just too evil!

.

Here at last.

Dorian swept his eyes across the massive land.

"Leave… You know what to do."

"Yes, Grandmaster."

Whoosh!

Like the wind, Old Gia and the rest jumped over the rails and vanished with their flash steps, leaving Dorian with the rest.

With the lives of many at stake, there was no time to waste.

In no time, not even their shadows could be seen.

And looking, a slight smile crept out from

Dorian\'s lips.

Oh?... How interesting.

He retracted his gaze from his surroundings, lazily looking at the group of normies behind him.

"Let\'s go."
