Chapter 165: The Azure Skirmish
The Azure Sea was beautifully calm. The morning sun reflected off the pristine, crystal-clear water, creating a peaceful and almost idyllic setting.
Captain Kaelen of the Holy Empire stood at the helm of the Divine Judgement.
It was a massive, beautifully crafted wooden galleon adorned with glowing golden crosses and heavily enchanted white sails. He took a deep breath of the salty ocean air, a wide and confident smile spreading across his bearded face.
Behind him, his crew of fifty Paladin initiates were casually drinking wine and polishing their holy armor.
"The wind is perfectly at our backs, Captain," his first mate laughed, leaning casually against the wooden railing.
"We will reach the Eastern Seaboard of the Monster Continent by nightfall."
"It will hardly be a glorious conquest," Kaelen chuckled, resting his hand on his golden broadsword.
