Chapter 909
"A clan blessed by the lands itself concealed by two great mountains located in the south of east. If you seek the precious land that they cultivate then make sure that you are strong enough to reach them." Madame Jean stated in a voice that echoes.
"That should be the Carabao Clan." Peridot muttered as she is taking note of the words coming out of Madame Jean\'s mouth.
"A clan said to be born from water itself as they live and thrive in it. Head east and find the swirling catastrophes to find what you seek." Madame Jean stated as she descended and sat on her table.
The surroundings also returned to its former look as the sea of stars vanished. Things that previously floated settled down back to their original places. The orientation of the room also returned back which no longer made then nauseous.
"You have gained what you seek. It is time for the Madame to be elsewhere and if fate allows us to meet again then so be it." Madame Jean stated as the crystal ball on her table emitted blinding light.
When the three opened their eyes, the tent and everything inside of it vanished. Madame Jean is also nowhere to be seen as she vanished as well. The three had a long pause before they finally realized that they are no longer in the tent and that they are out in the open.
"Did she really just vanish? Did you know that this is going to happen?" Levin Cloud asked.
"I did not know. I only know of her tent\'s location before which is why I suggested to come visit here. I did not know that she will vanish after reading the fortune that we wanted." Peridot replied as even she did not expect to be bamboozled.
"Anyways, she said to head south of east to find the Carabao Clan. Do you guys have a world map?" Kabrakan asked.
"I have one. Let me bring it up." Peridot stated as she showed them her world map that came from her master. Although, it was not up to date since it is a map that depicted the world about 50 years ago.
"There are a group of islands located south of the east continent, but it is not traveled much by the merchants. It is said that south of the east continent is where barbarians live that attack any that goes there." Peridot stated but they can only follow that hint.
The group headed to the eastern continent first and planned their next destination. They needed to go to the port city located at the south of the east continent called Vermillion Port. Thankfully, the Vermillion Bird is welcoming to Peridot when it learned that she was Adrian\'s friend.
They easily arrived at Vermillion Port since they rode Moksha to arrive faster than before. The only problem that they encountered is that no ships actually sail south. Even the fisherman that stays there are warning them to not go to the islands south of Vermillion Port as it is said to be hideouts for pirates.
"Do pirates even exist in this game? I mean the seas are controlled by various races that make the oceans their home." Levin Cloud stated.
"Pirates exist but they are smarter than you think because they only target boats that they can definitely loot. The targets are usually small merchants\' ships that cannot hire great protection or private ships. They are the reason why the other continents rarely exchange goods." Peridot replied.
"We can just ride Moksha there anyway. I can restore his stamina as long as we fly at a decent speed. It seems that the fishermen are not going to help us even if we pay them." Levin Cloud stated.
The three agreed to use Moksha to fly to the islands located south of the eastern continent. They headed to the area where not much activity is bustling as summoning Moksha in a crowded area is not a great idea.
"So, all of you are going south? You can definitely survive but it is still up to the luck of the three of you." An old hermit suddenly stated as the three suddenly noticed that he was meditating in one of the rocks.
"Do you know what awaits us south, old man?" Levin Cloud asked as NPCs that warn people know of the dangers.
"Let me warn you. The only way to your destination is the sea. Flying will only lead to your doom." The old man reiterated as he returned to his meditation. He no longer spoke even if the three of them asked the old hermit.
"We should at least try. What if the old man is just there to scare anyone that attempts to fly to the south of here. But…it is still your call, cousin." Levin Cloud stated as he looked towards Kabrakan.
"I agree as we cannot blindly believe everything that they say. We need to see it with our own eyes and experience it with our own body. If we do not go because of the warnings of people that we do not know then we might regret later." Kabrakan stated as Peridot agreed.
Moksha is summoned and he increased his size to make sure that the other two can ride him. They headed south to where the islands are located. The old hermit could only see the determined faces of the young ones, but he clicked his tongue. He knows that the only way to the islands of the south of the eastern continent is through water.
