"What do you mean by heavy?"

Turning around, Mercalos was surprised to see who it was while Lucilia had an tinged of hostility in her expression.

There, wearing a modern minimalist clothing, the silver grey hair coupled with that of a features of a maturing woman. Meiya Everheart looked at Mercalos and Lucilia with the air of nobility surrounding her.

Seeing Meiya at first glance, Mercalos first thought was that of she was a woman from the philippines. However, seeing the crest of the Everheart family on her wrist was what caused his shock.

The Everheart family is one of the leading families in the whole of Pilanda Empire.

The family itself is known to have unimaginable wealth and is home to powerful knights and magicians all around.

More so, it is also rumored that the family has some certain power in the Empire's politics.

"Wha-what is a member of the Everheart family doing here!?" Thought Mercalos.

While Mercalos is thinking on what the hell is an member of the Everheart family doing here, Lucilia then said with hostility.

"There's nothing heavy. You can go now."

Hearing what Lucilia said, and also what her tone implies, Meiya couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Look, I know that me and my team attacked you with those pirates. But now, I'm just an prisoner. I could do nothing to you."

Hearing this, Lucilia simply scoffed.

"I'm no fool. Your hands are not detained, and your wearing clothing that came from the Philippines. Prisoner? I think not. Besides, that's not how the Philippines deals with you anyway."

Meiya lowered her brows upon hearing this.

Lucilia was right. She was indeed not treated as a prisoner and had her own set of freedom.

She had also heard about the country Philippines before and everything about it.

From traditional culture to it's military.

It was hard for her to believe that such a country actually exists.

Although she has not seen the country itself, she could already tell on how powerful the country is.

There was an offside to all of this though.

She's trapped on the port alone.

All forms of contact outside the port was not allowed. Permissions to contact her family was all negated.

She was basically what people here calls a sitting duck.

Creasing her brows, Meiya then said.

"Might I ask for our bad blood then to be of the past for now. From what I heard so far, you also haven't left the port for a long time as well. So I'm pretty sure you also became uninformed about what's happening outside no?"

Hearing this, Lucilia couldn't help but stre daggers at Meiya.

It's true, although she was indeed receiving letters from her crew, most of those were about how worried they are to her. None of it concerns all the outside things that are currently happening.

Witnessing the cold fight that is currently happening between Meiya and Lucilia, Mercalos felt like he was being strangled to death at such an atmosphere.

"Please, if you want to fight, spare me from the issue." Cried Mercalos.

"Back on issue, you there, what's the heavy thing that you have been referring to?"
