Chapter 303: "Baby
The sky was clear.
The pristine and distant sky held a resplendent golden sun. After a heavy rain, the air above the sea was exceptionally clear.
Waves splashed like shattered jade, rolling from the sea's surface towards the distant horizon.
A small vessel, causing white waves as it sailed, was heading towards the direction of the Floating City.
On the deck, a tall, dark-skinned woman with long black hair that reached her waist held a telescope in her hand, gazing into the distance.
Behind her, the grey sails fluttered loudly in the wind, blowing her long hair into the air like the tail of a swallow.
She was Captain Eilina, dreaming of journeying to the mythical Maritime City to find treasures that could make her wealthy.
The grey sails signified that their vessel was something between a normal ship and a pirate ship; it sailed normally most of the time, but in critical moments of food and water scarcity, it also played the role of a pirate, looting passing ships.
