Chapter: 1807
Pyo-wol and Yul Ayeon watched as the ship sank from an island.
The ship was engulfed in flames, spewing out fires as it sink to the bottom of the sea. The ship resembled a whale screaming in agony as it died.
Scattered corpses floated around the sinking ship.
Among the dead bodies, there were those who were killed by the two of them, but most of those corpses had died due to the cannon fire.
�How could they do this?�
Yul Ayeon covered her mouth with her hand as she stared at the scene.
The ship that fired the cannon clearly belonged to the same organization as the ship it shot, yet it still did so without hesitation.
Such an act was incomprehensible to Yul Ayeon�s common sense.
�They should be on the same side� Do they not value their comrade�s lives?�
�Perhaps keeping their secret is more important than their comrades� lives.�
�Still, how can a human�-�
Yul Ayeon�s lips quivered.
She had numerous large and small wounds all over her body.
These were injuries inflicted by Jin Yoo-gun during their fight.�
The fight between the two was fierce.�
In terms of martial arts alone, Yul Ayeon had the upper hand, but Jin Yoo-gun�s swordsmanship was not to be underestimated either.
With his practical experience on the battlefield, his swordplay was unpredictable and vicious. Yul Ayeon couldn�t easily overpower him. On top of that, she found herself in a difficult situation when Jin Yoo-gun�s subordinates joined the battle.
If the cannon hadn�t been fired at that time, Yul Ayeon would have ended up suffering much more serious wounds.
The moment the cannons hit the ship, Jin Yoo-gun and his men immediately ceased their barrage of attacks and quickly fled the ship together.�
There was no trace of hesitation in their actions.
Yul Ayeon was at a loss for words, unable to grasp their intentions, as they retreat like a fast ebbing tide.�
After escaping the burning ship, Jin Yoo-gun and his men boarded each of their own small boats. They then quickly made their way towards the newly arrived ships, three hundred meters away.
Along the way, many of the small boats were overturned by huge waves, resulting in the loss of many lives among the group.
But, all of them still left, without bothering to rescue those who had fallen into the sea.
Yul Ayeon escaped with Pyo-wol to an island near the ship. It was the same island they had used to infiltrate.
�So, we didn�t gain anything in the end. No, we did recover the Demonic Soul Blade, so it�s not like there was no gain at all. Still, it�s surprising. To think that such a group exists in the world.�
Yul Ayeon shuddered.
When it seemed like the Phantom Fleet�s identity was about to be exposed, they fired their cannons and sank the entire ship.�
While Yul Ayeon and Pyo-wol managed to preserve their own lives, they could not save a single one of those who were trapped in the cage.
They didn�t even manage to know their stories, where they were captured, or even their names.� JrNovels.com
