Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

At least they didn't leave me hanging or that would have been awkward.

I smiled.

The feeling of riding a ship over reckless waters with uncertain dangers never gets old. The emotion was real. Raw, and real.

Steering towards the direction Mad John had pointed out for me, I replied with the same sentiment "ALL HANDS HOAY!!".

…......

Steering the ship in a certain direction was more difficult than I imagined. But thankfully, I was given a compass by Mad John that kept me moving on a steady path.

The wind hit my face as I rode the swaying ship, rocking softly back and forth while my crewmen tied the bombs with the ropes that have been given to us by Captain Crimson eye and threw them outside the ship, tying the other end of the rope to the side of the ship.

Meanwhile, Annabelle was now in her room unpacking and rearranging her things while Mad John accompanied her in case she needed anything and doesn't get lost on the ship.

Besides, I don't want her running into something she isn't supposed to and risk giving the crewmen hard time.

"Haa!!" I shivered. The further we went in the Cryptic Sea, the colder the wind became. It's been 3 hours already since we departed away from Captain Crimson eye's ship, and we still haven't encountered anything unexpected.

"ARE ALL THE BOMBS IN THEIR POSITION?" I asked, knowing that the chilly weather meant that we will so be entering the icy parts of the Cryptic sea.

"AYE CAPTAIN" They responded.

Looking around, I could see the ropes tried around my ship and strapped together with their bombs made me nod my head in approval.

If one of those mutated beasts comes, we will be armed and ready for them!

Still, how low is the temperature around here?

"Haaa….." Letting my breath escape into the wind, I could see thick whitish fog which signified that the temperature here was lower than I could have imagined. Thankfully, I was putting on a coat.

And also, I could see that some of my crewmen were putting on long thick sleeves this time around, while the others still in their short sleeves weren't doing well as they shivered uncontrollably.

Well, I told Mad John to warn them of the cold weather, and seeing that some of them wore some protective clothes, it seems that not all of them listened and took heed to his advice.

"WHOOOOSSSSH!!"

The wind thickened and the water beneath our sails got rougher. We were now entering uncharted waters, and I knew that it won't be long before things took a turn for the worst.

"CLAPPP!!! CRAAACCCKKK!!!!!"

Speak of the devil, and he arrives just on time!

Lighting strikes through the sky, flashing twice in a row beside our ship, with the sky darkening with each roar it unleashed upon the sea.

The sea which was once calm and windy now growled with the roar of a wounded lion. The waves took pace with water finding itself over our ship, and before I knew it, it was man vs nature. A broken ship vs a traitorous sea.

"CLAPPP!!! CRAAACCCKKK!!!!!" Thunder crashed once more in the sky above us, and in a few minutes, the only thing that lit up our surroundings bright enough for us to see was the thunder and lightning each threatening to strike the sea and lite it ablaze like kerosine.

"EVERYONE, STAY YOUR POST AND KEEP THE SHIP MOVING!!" I screamed. I currently only knew how to ride a ship through a calm sea, but as for a bloody sea storm, my skills were definitely out of the question in front of the natural calamity.

Don't ask me how I rode the last one, because I freaking had to light myself up on fire for it!

I almost sent out someone to call Mad John so that could take control of the helm until I saw him and Annabelle running out from the lower decks and entering my vision.

"Mad John!!" I screamed one more, drawing his attention towards me. I watched as he ran up the platform, and in a few minutes, he was already beside me.

"Captain" He said, and I nodded my head, before letting go of the helm and giving him control over it.

Seeing that I was no longer needed over here, I went down and immediately approached Annabelle who was at the edge of the ship and looking over the sea cautiously. Somehow, I didn't like the look in her eyes!!

Walking over to her as the sea water slapped across my legs and winds that threatened to lift me into the sky, I asked warily "What is it?".

"They are here!!"

"What is?" I replied.

Without hesitation, Annabelle pointed a finger over the surface of the sea, and within the roughing lashing of the water below us, I could make out the figure of a bright crystal colour figure swimming back and forth. It was a sea beast.

"They are meant to use this opportunity to try to capsize the ship, but I think that something is stopping them"

"Toothless" There was no need for me to wonder who that person or beast protecting my ship was.

Seeing Annabelle frowning in confusion, I said "They might be staying away because of my tamed beast".

"Oh!! Realization dawned upon her, and even though I knew that she was wondering why I had named a Tiger Whale Toothless, the circumstance didn't allow her as two humongous figures engaged in a dog fight leapt out of a sea like a fucking dragon trying to leap through the dragon's gate once more.

Needless to say, it was time to try out the fireworks Captain Crimson eye had given me.

"I respectfully speak to you, the warring woman of water and blood. Seeping crest of lunacy and hatred. Assemble, daughter of Mother Andiara -My name is Keia".

Listening to Annabelle already summoning her spirits for help, I sighed in relief as I didn't want this to be another Knight Camille situation. And seeing the 115-meter-tall spirit fighting my side was reassuring, to say the least.

"SWWWWOOOSHSHH!!!" The ship tilted to the side, sailing further and further away from the battle between giants.

Turning back to take a glance at Mad John, I could see his concentration against the waves as he tried to stir the ship away to safety.

Hahh!! This is what it means to have people who were competent enough to value their life and yours.

"BANNNG!!!" A force crashed against our ship, making the steering roll away from Mad John's hands before he grabbed it again with a new-found ferocity.

Meanwhile, my eyes twitched as I imagined how damaged the ship would become if it gets under attack again.

"You guys should handle the ship and make sure everybody on it gets to safety. I will handle this mutated sea beast" I said to Annabelle who blinked in confusion.

"Huh!!".

Not waiting for her to respond, I immediately went towards where the water-resistant ropes were tied and untied three of them.

Sending a message for Toothless to return, I watched as she left the other mutated for Annabelle's summoned spirit to handle before she arrived in front of me in mere seconds.

Commanding Toothless, to open her jaws, I threw one of the ropes in it and ordered her to tie it around the monster.

Since all I needed was to light the rope and the bombs will follow suit, the best plan right now would be to harm the sea beast directly instead of trying to scare them aware with several blasts, hoping that I manage to at least hit them while letting my ship take the collateral damage.

A response of confirmation from Toothless was all I needed before I saw her dive back into the water with the ropes in her jaws. Although I haven't yet seen this mutated beast, I could tell from their sizes that they weren't as big as Toothless, but were still big enough to trade as sushi to the giants in the beanstalks.

The waves soon tripled above our heads, telling me all I needed to know about the battle taking place below us.

"PING!!! BOOOM!!!" The sound of a Toothless sonic boom awakened me from my dazed slumber for me to go on with the next phase of the plan.

Tapping into my magical energy and circulating it around me, my whole body instantly torched up in the stormy darkness, lighting up my surroundings with the only thing covering my figure was a raging torrent of flames.

And with it, a bright orange light lit up beneath the violent waves.

Phase one was complete. Next was phase two. And before I knew it…..

"BOOOOOMMMM!!!"

The waves rose up, ascending into the sky, and the water parted ways, splitting into two as though some dollar store Moses was trying to split the sea but gave up almost immediately.
