By this point, Hilsman's face was bright red and he was wishing the ground would swallow him up.

"I had never been on the water before and didn't know I was prone to seasickness," Hilsman mumbled while covering his face.

The poor knight's embarrassment had the room full of laughter again, but luckily for him, it only lasted a moment before everyone decided to cut the guy a break. Maybe if they don't overdo the teasing with others it won't be so bad when it's their turn.

Chapter 51: Into the Whirlpool (2)

Cale looked out through the small window on the boat. The color of the violent water was not transparent at all. It was white and blue as it reflected the bottom of the sea, and became a darker and darker shade of blue as it got closer to the center of the whirlpool.

'You'd probably die if you get caught in it.'

"I didn't," Toonka* said with pride.

"I played in it for a little bit too," Toonka added.

"Some silly whirlpool couldn't kill the great and mighty me," Raon stated.

"That's right. Dragons are much stronger than whirlpools, Dodam^ agreed.

"That's true. Quite a few of you are strong enough for those whirlpools not to pose a threat to you at all," Cale conceded.

Cale thought about the new magic bombs in the magic box back in his residence. He then turned his gaze toward the front and looked toward the smallest island of the cluster of islands in front of him.

"Young master-nim, it is that island over there! The whirlpool in front of that island is the worst! You'll need to say goodbye to this world immediately if you get caught in that one! Hahaha!"

"Pfft. That guy's amusing," Archie laughed.

"He probably doesn't even realize that his passengers do not want to hear things like that," Bud chuckled.

"I definitely didn't want to hear it," Hilsman grumbled.

The fisherman was really gutsy. He didn't even see the Vice Captain's face turn paler as he continued to speak.

"That guy really should have stopped talking before he even started," Hilsman moaned, his face once again scarlet.

Cale held back the feeling of needing to vomit and paid attention to the fisherman's words.

"Ah! I wasn't the only one feeling sick," Hilsman happily declared.

"But you were the only one to actually vomit," Beacrox pointed out in disgust. "More than once too."

A pout once again graced the usually cheerful man's face at the reminder of his shame.

"There is a legend that says that the whirlpool appeared because of a thief who stole something from a god, but, aiya!"

"It wasn't actually a god, right?" Kim Min Ah asked.

"That's right. It was just a god wannabe. She stole the jar that was placed at Wind Island from the Ancient White Star and his minions. The lives of her family and friends were sacrificed to create it," Cale explained.

"The fucking White Radish and the garbage that followed him around really did copy that Ancient White Bastard and his minions," Cage growled.

"Luckily for future generations, there shouldn't be a third Whita Star since the God of Despair has been sealed in a way that will prevent him from finding another idiot to take up his cause," Alberu said.
