Chapter 36: Night

"Okfa assures us that you are one of those who know the 'living corpse' best."

Agnes could clearly see curiosity in Adewina's eyes, but only calmness could be heard in her expression and tone.

A true "living corpse" certainly knows enough about a living corpse, and Agnes couldn't help but laugh, not to mention that Mr. Chester's teaching during this time had made up for the lack of extraordinary knowledge of the "Rose School" - Mr. Conte was only a low-order extraordinary after all.

And it seems that Mr. Chester is authorized by the upper echelons of the "temperance faction" to be completely responsive when teaching Agnes.

Agnes nodded, acknowledging Adewina's words without any humility.

"I believe that too," she smiled, "I think you're a member of the 'Reader' pathway." ”

"Yes." Adevina replied briefly, and Agnes watched with some amusement as a little confusion appeared in her light blue eyes.

She wanted to ask me about my education, and the thought crossed Agnes' mind, and she listened to the whisper in her ear and made out the one that belonged to Adevina.

Sure enough, Agnes couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.

"Hey, our recruiter lady is going to start interviewing again!" Anderson looked a little excited, grinning a little as Agnes turned her gaze.

"I completed my secondary education as a teacher." Agnes whispered.

"Teacher secondary education?" Anderson's expression suddenly became a little strange, and Agnes knew what he was thinking even if she didn't listen to the whispers that flashed in her ears.

"Why, doesn't it look like it?" Agnes raised her hand and pressed the wide-brimmed hat on top of her head, and said with a smile on her lips.

"I thought you were at least from a noble family." Anderson said.

"Thank you for the compliment." Agnes blinked.

"We first picked up our last companion at Puerto Dirinhos, and then headed west to Puerto Escorson in the Gulf of Didsy, turning south." Advina said, looking at the busy crew as the ships leaving the harbor headed in different directions.

"We will take one of the routes to the southern continent on the previous part of the voyage, along the island of Artis-Mank-Piven into the pre-central part of the Furious Sea, and then we will voluntarily deviate from the course and go to our destination." Adevina said with some seriousness.

Agnes sketched the entire itinerary in her mind as Adevina spoke.

"In this way, it seems that our destination is quite far from the southern continent, and closer to the Gulf of Diece." She thought for a moment and said.

"That's true." Adevina nodded.

"Then may we have a good trip." Agnes said casually.

"Then the storm is above, may we have a smooth journey." Anderson stretched out his right hand and put a fist on his chest.

Agnes couldn't help but look at Anderson with a strange expression.

"Now that you're at sea, believe a little bit." Anderson grinned.

Agnes withdrew her gaze and looked at the place where the sea and sky met, feathered clouds streaking across half the sky.

......

The whole voyage is not long, but it will take about a week.

Agnes met the last member of the group that afternoon, the Extraordinary of the Warriors, a Knight of the Dawn, who had embarked from the port of Tirinhos, south of the Rorsted Islands.

This is a middle-aged man with a hearty smile, with light brown curly hair, deep facial features, and a height of two meters and two three, named Sbasky Nereki.

Truth be told, it was the first time Agnes had seen an unofficial mid-sequence extraordinaire at sea who had not become a "warrior" of a pirate - the "warrior" sequence to become a pirate was quite common in the Sunia Sea, just like the god Utravsky, who was also in the "Knight of the Dawn", who also worked as a pirate.

There is probably some geographical factor, after all, there are really a lot of people in the sea of Sunia, Agnes nodded secretly.

Of course, in the eyes of most ordinary people, adventurers and pirates are not much different, and they are equally notorious.

Karpaz's stress reaction to Sbasnereki was so severe that if it weren't for Agnes' orders, he would have attacked the next moment he saw him.

Somehow it must be that the "Knights of Dawn" possess a low-mystical divine light quality that causes discomfort to Karpath, but there is also a possible factor, Agnes squinted slightly as she looked at Sbasnereki who was laughing with her head on her head as she pressed the wide-brimmed hat on her head.

"Miss Poyesia," Sbasnereki looked at Agnes, who was leaning against the barrel of wine, and raised the glass in his hand, the smell of the wine penetrating into Agnes's nose, "Welcome to join us." ”

Agnes let the corners of her mouth curl a little, nodded, and raised her glass in her hand, "I'm interested in this ruin. ”

The familiar melody came from the side, and Angnes subconsciously turned her head to look at the place where the music sounded, where the crew who did not know the name played the guitar, and the sound of Anderson clapping his hands and laughing was very clear in the sound of the rolling waves in the night.

"The romance of love," said Edwina casually, "Rousail the Great played this piece for the first time at his wedding to Queen Matilda Abel. ”

"Hey, I heard that Rousaille the Great hired a musician from Fenerport who was proficient in Fenerport, and wrote it specifically for that wedding." Anderson said with some excitement.

"It's just a rumor that the piece is a fusion of the folk Fenerport melodies with the Intisian style," says Advina, "and the guitar, though an uncommon instrument, was invented by Russell the Great himself, and it's not surprising that he was able to compose the first piece that fits the guitar tone." ”

Agnes couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth as she listened to the conversation between the two.

"Not many people can play the guitar," Agnes asked, looking at Adevina's crew with some excitement and anticipation, as she looked at the crew after playing the piece, "where did you learn it?" ”

"My great-grandfather's great-grandfather was a court musician in Intis." The crew retracted their gaze at Adevina with some disappointment, and replied to Agnes.

Great-grandfather's great-grandfather...... A total of seven generations, Agnes couldn't help but sigh a little in her heart.

"Ms. Poyesia has such a question......" Sbasnereki asked with some curiosity, looking at Angnes, "it seems that you also know something about the guitar?" ”

Ella Boyesia was the daughter of a spice merchant, but her father died early and her mother was widowed, so she shouldn't have the leisure to learn an unpopular instrument, the thought crossed Angnes' mind, and she was about to shake her head.

But in the next second, Agnes felt her spirituality touch slightly, and she nodded slowly.

"I'll make some music that I'm interested in." Agnes lowered her voice.

"Do you want to have one?" The crew's eyes, who still didn't know his name, lit up instantly, and he spoke with suppressed excitement.

"Okay." Agnes nodded amusedly and took the guitar from the crew.

She thought about it for a moment, and instead of standing on her right foot, she sat casually on the wooden box on the side, resting her right leg on her left leg.

There are some traces that will not disappear once they are left, and Agnes couldn't help but shake her head slightly in her heart, such as the education of manners.

She plucked the strings one by one, determined the pitch of each string once, and then began to play.

The soothing prelude passed, and Agnes began to sing in a soft voice.

"Those stories about the sea,"

"It's no longer a mystery."

"I'm obsessed with the words in the novel,"

"You're going through."

"My fanaticism and obsession are written into letters,"

"Across the ocean with you."

"I'm on this windless and rainless night,"

"I miss you all night."

......

It wasn't a long song, but after Agnes finally stopped playing, the crowd was quiet for a long time.

"Although the guitar you chose for this song is just a foil," the crew member, who still didn't know his name, was the first to react and sighed, "but I can hear that you play better than I do." ”

Anderson, Edwina, and Sbasne Rekki's expressions looked much more serious, and they looked at each other.

"It's a beautiful performance," Adevina commented with a standard smile, glancing at the gathered crew, "but I think we should rest." ”

Then she glanced at Agnes, as well as Anderson and Sbasnereki, and said, "We'll have to discuss it earlier and see if we can deduce more from what we already know." ”
