A few weeks later, at high noon, Ace's small ship was approaching a barrier island.
'It's about time…' Ace's eyes shimmered with resolve as he knew what was about to come.
However, right at this moment, the calm surface of the water suddenly started to ripple, and Ace's focus was instantly drawn to this abrupt anomaly.
His eyes suddenly widened when he saw a massive shadow creeping upward right under his ship, and the water's surface was rising.
'Live fate map!' Ace instantly activates the live fate map to gauge the threat level. It was his first time seeing a sea beast after he left the Union continent.
The moment he laid his eyes on the fate map, his pupils dilated because the fate point he saw was black!
Right at this moment, a ghastly pressure descended, and Ace's heart sank because it was quite clear that he wasn't just imagining things.
