When the fishermen learned that there was an island nearby, Hades expressed surprise.

Looking up and following the direction pointed by the men for a moment, who would have known that during his time at sea, there was an island so close to the sea where he was stationed.

At this point, he finally understands the horror of the sea, and if there is no adequate preparation and tools, and without the luck of the protagonist, it is really normal to get lost in the sea.

"West Sea...... Poli ...... I see, thanks. ”

After Hades got the news he needed, he wanted to thank him gratefully, but for some reason the expression on his face was stiff, and he couldn't extract any emotion from top to bottom, so he had to bow symbolically.

The fishermen and uncles hurriedly expressed their fear, they have lived for most of their lives, and they have received great gifts from the nobles.

The old fisherman saw that the other party was just a child and might have been shipwrecked, glared at the few people who had gotten into the eyes of the money, took out the compass and handed it to Hades.

"Here's the compass and the map, you just follow this direction, and you won't be able to see the island in a short time."

"yes, okay."

Hades nodded flatly.

Suddenly, he refocused his gaze on a few people, his eyes showed a bit of contemplation, and his fingers involuntarily grasped the long knife hanging from his belt, and his fingertips trembled slightly.

And behind him, the darkness that has accumulated over the years of murder is approaching.

A strange thought suddenly crossed his mind.

There are a total of 5 people on the opposite ship, which is 5 souls, and the way to kill sea beasts to obtain souls is difficult to find and difficult to deal with, but killing people is much simpler.

Hades vividly remembered that he had killed a pirate, and that was the first time he had obtained a soul, and that was the first time he had killed someone.

He hadn't seen anyone alive at sea since, and it was even more difficult to collect souls.

The current 5 points of soul are almost at his fingertips, and it is not much easier than his hard work at sea for half a year.

As soon as this thought came to him, even he was startled.

He...... What are you thinking?

Hades stood at the bow of the boat, his palms soaked with sweat, and watched the fishing boat gradually sail into the distance.

Homicide...... When did it become so natural in his concept.

Especially on the other side, there are still a few kind-hearted people who don't know each other and help themselves.

A strong sense of self-blame hit his heart, and the guilt that sprouted blamed him for the gradual collapse of humanity in him.

Human nature...... He really ...... Is it still human?

Hades became completely panicked, because this was not the first time that such feelings had occurred.

From the first time he killed someone and didn't feel anything wrong, he questioned his own humanity, and then drifted alone at sea for half a year without the slightest sense of loneliness, and he doubted himself even more.

Until now, when his knee-jerk thoughts actually pointed the knife at ordinary people who had no grievances with him, he was convinced that he had fallen.

It's just unclear if this evil side comes from the system, or if it's because he hasn't been with people for too long and has lost his humanity.

The waves crashed against the hull, splashing onto the side of the boat, splashing onto the guardrail around him, and soaking Hades' trouser legs.

The weather under clear skies is changing, and the sun is still shining, but in the blink of an eye it is already dark clouds, which is a sign of an impending storm.

Hades looked at the blurred black shadow in the distance, which should be the "Polly Island" referred to by the fishermen, but for some reason a trace of irritability suddenly rose in his heart, and this irritability became stronger and stronger, so that he could hardly control his emotions, just like the weather above his head changed suddenly.

Closing his eyes, Hades's mind flashed all the bloody images, one by one two or three meters long sea fish were blown out by his punch, bright red fish blood sprayed in the seawater, splashed on his cheeks, the fishy sweet smell stimulated his sense of smell.

Suddenly, the picture turned, and the place he was in was no longer the sea area, but the port of a small town, and the violent deaths were no longer sea fish, but fresh human lives.

The long knives dyed red, the cold corpses, the high tide washing the blood-red sand, all of this made a terrible picture that stimulated his nerves.

He thinks he's gone mad!

Suddenly, Hades opened his eyes and made a decision.

Turn the ship's bow, get away from the island, and find a place to hide off the beaten track.

He wanted to calm down and sort out his complicated state of mind.

Of course, this is also a chance to give the people of that island a chance to stay away from the demons.

......

"Wow-Wow——,"

On the sea, in a canoe, a girl of eight or nine years old was paddling hard with her thin arms.

The storm was approaching, the sun was covered with dark clouds, and the whole sky seemed to collapse, forcing the air to fill with oppressive breath.

A flash of thunder tore the clouds to shreds, and the rain poured down from the sky, also scaring her on the boat.

The girl's hand holding the oars trembled slightly, almost unable to control it, and a hint of panic flashed in her big frightened eyes, but then she forced herself to calm down.

A girl of her age should still be coquettish in the arms of her parents, noisily holding the hands of adults and asking for gifts.

But for her, these have always belonged to the category of extravagant expectations.

She used to have a doctor and friends in the library to rely on, but now, she's on her own.

In the bow of the canoe was one of her parcels, which contained some bread and fresh water.

This was the "salary" she received from her previous family, and if they didn't choose to sell her to the Navy, maybe she could work there for a while and wait until she had saved enough money......

But there is no "if" in the world, and being betrayed seems to have become a part of her life.

The girl stubbornly bit her lower lip, forcing herself not to cry, she wanted to live, for her mother, for the doctor, and for all the scholars.

She hugged the bread and nibbled on a few bites, the bread was too dry and too eager to eat, her throat couldn't swallow and choked, and she wanted to feed a few mouthfuls of water in a hurry, but suddenly a wave hit and lifted the bag of food and fresh water in the bow of the boat into the sea.

The house leaked and it rained overnight, and the girl looked at the sunken food in despair, and she wanted to jump into the sea to pick it up, but she was a capable person, and even the sea abandoned her, so she could only hold the plank on the edge of the boat and pinch her fingers into blue and purple.

The food was gone, the water was gone, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the world turned off the lights for her, and at the same time blew out the last candle, leaving her in darkness completely.

The helpless sobbing sound finally sounded, and tears mixed with the rain trickled out of her eyes, but the girl did not give up, she grabbed the oars and rowed hard, facing the storm and waves, inch by inch on the sea.

I don't know how long it took, but she finally saw a ship parked at sea not far away.

It was as if she saw hope.

The sun's rays slowly shone on the earth, and the waves on the sea slowly dissipated.

The gentle rain washed down her cheeks as if giving her last of her strength, and she was getting closer to the ship.
