New World - Philippines transported to another world

Chapter 19

The 'exploration' continues.

Throughout the trip, Lucilia thought that there would be more accidents.

But the reality is often not what would one expect.

It was peaceful.

That's all.

Looking far into the horizon. Feeling the gentle cool breeze pass her cheeks.

It was a good feeling.

Taking a deep breath, and then opening her eyes. She was now once more filled with renewed vigor.

"You look renewed."

"Well, after what happened today. I think that having a renewed, adventurous spirit, would be nice."

Mercalos sighed.

"How about you? It was just the first time you entered the Sea of Fog. I wonder how that experience felt."

"Ha! I tell you, it was 'great'."

Knowing what Mercalos meant, Lucilia laughed and said,

"You'll get used to it."

"..."

.....

Time passed, the sun had set.

The night slowly arrived. What came next after the light was the beautiful starry sky and the noteworthy double moon.

The crew didn't need torches which they would normally need during the night since this is the first time they saw such a beautiful night sky that even the earth would be illuminated.

Everything was clear in this bright night.

"Such beauty." (Mercalos)

"This is the first time I have seen the skies so clear." (Lucilia)

"First time? You mean you never encountered the skies to be this clear?" (Mercalos)

"Not once." (Lucilia)

Each gave their own silent moment to engrave this in their memories.

Who knows, maybe this would be the only time they would see this.

"It seems like beneath that deadly veil, was a beautiful woman all along." (Mercalos)

"You really referred to it like that?" (Lucilia)

"Is it not the truth?" (Mercalos)

Looking into the beautiful night sky, she replied,

".... I suppose it is." (Lucilia)

.....

It has been moments after their grand scenery.

Glancing at their 'escorts', although visible, only had these red and green lights.

Only few are awake at this moment but nevertheless, with the wind, they would not slow down from their current speed.

Lucilia, also sleepy, went on to preceded to do so, however...

"Hmm? Am I seeing things?"

She saw light.

It was small but she was sure it was light.

She woke up Mercalos.

"Hey wake up."

"Hnnugh, wha, old hag I want more sleep."

"Old hag?!"

A vein popped, then an ear-piercing cry was heard.

This woke everyone up.
