Chapter 256: chapter 256- Proceed The Journey

After Taufik returned to the ship, everyone except Aksara and Lembuswana, looked at Taufik with strange looks.

"... Who are you? I mean, what are you?"

Marzuki asked out of curiosity because it was not every day or even never that someone whose head had been completely destroyed could still move and live like what Taufik had just done.

"Hm? What with those weird questions? Of course, I'm a human being"

"No, you're everything but human, what exactly are you? And please don't lie to us, after all, for now, and in the future you will be with us, so at least we should know what you really are"

Marzuki said once again, with a serious look towards Taufik, as did the other crew members who looked at Taufik with the same serious look as Marzuki.

"...we thank you for saving us, but we need to know who or what you really are so we can be comfortable being by your side"

"...

*Sigh*

Truth to be told, I'm indeed not a human anymore"

"... No longer human? So are you saying that you were human before?"

"Yes"

"Then what are you"

"... A vampire"

"..."

"..."

Hearing Taufik's words, everyone on the ship immediately fell silent, 'Vampire', no one doesn't know about Vampires, especially in the last three years, the Vampire groups called the 'Immortal Troops' are the mercenaries most often involved in wars, whether on a large or small scale, even lately there is a saying that says 'If the 'Immortal Troops' are on your side, victory will definitely be obtained' Their services are always used and fought over.

Their reputation grew after news spread that they saved war victims and gave them a better life; they were demons on the battlefield and angels when they were outside of war.

"... A vampire?! Are you saying that you are from that infamous 'Immortal Troops'? You from there?"

"So he was from that 'Immortal Troops' No wonder he was that strong"

"I heard everyone in that Troops was all monster, they're not afraid of dying and also have great strength, truly fit their name"

"Oh, and talk about that 'Immortal Troops' I heard their queen is simply a goddess, she is a beauty among beauty, Words are not enough to describe her beauty"

"Sure, if have you here as a wife, I will not ask for anything else for the rest of my life"

"You? Yeah, keep dreaming buddy"

After that, a conversation about the 'Immortal Army', especially Tina, took place on the ship. They talked about it as a fairy tale, full of epic stories and other things.

However, in the midst of the conversation, Marzuki approached Taufik.

"... You said before that you're a king from some unknown kingdom, and you're a Vampire, so what's your relationship with the Red Queen? Is Aksa your child with the Red Queen?"

"... Well, our relationship is a bit complicated to explain, and Aksa is not my child with her, but with another woman who is also a bit complicated to explain, so I can't say anything about that, sorry"

"WHAT!...

Marzuki asked, realizing that he had raised his voice, he looked around and saw that the other crew members were still busy discussing/fantasizing about Tina, so he moved closer to Taufik and continued speaking in a low voice.

... If the Red Queen is not Aksa's mother, then who? Wait! How many women do you have?"

"Hm~ Including Aksa's mother, there's five"

"..."

"..."

"... How many?"

Marzuki asked once more, thinking that maybe he had heard wrong.

"Five"

However, Taufik's answer was still the same, this suddenly made Marzuki speechless for a few moments before he finally asked again.

"... It is The Red Queen Include?"

"Hm... Not yet"

Once again, Taufik's answer left Marzuki speechless.

"..."

Instantly, Marzuki's gaze changed into an envious gaze; this younger man in front of him lived a life that most or even all men on earth dreamed of; he had everything: looks, wealth, and women; he had more than all men in the world had.

'... What a Shame, the only thing he lacked was time, but... '

"Can you tell me how you managed to have so many women, is there a trick?"

"No way I tell you that, your wife will kill you and then kill me if that happens, one is enough for you"

Hearing Taufik suddenly talk about his wife, Marzuki felt goosebumps.

"... You're right, forget that I ever asked you that question"

"Sure"

Taufik replied; after that, Marzuki turned to his crew, who were still busy 'gossiping' and then said in a loud voice.

"ALRIGHT GUYS, STOP WHATEVER YOU DO RIGHT, DO SOME MINOR INSPECTIONS ON THE SHIP, SEE IF THERE IS ANY DAMAGE, WE WILL SAIL AGAIN WHEN EVERYTHING IS BACK TO NORMAL"

As ordered by their captain, the crew inspected the entire ship to see if there was any damage caused by the incident, fortunately after completing the inspection, there was no serious damage that could disrupt the ship's sailing, so after making a few repairs, that same night, the ship sailed back to their destination.

--------------

- With Triton.

After running away from Taufik, the Trident that Taufik threw, hit and severely injured Trident's stomach; at this time, he used the remaining strength to stay conscious and continue swimming to report what happened to his father, Poseidon, who was in the palace under the Aegean Sea.

"That man is not even a mortal, I have to report this quickly to Father, that man's presence would be very dangerous if he were allowed to continue"

Said Triton who was trying his best to move his fishtail to swim with the remaining strength he had, usually with his speed he could close the distance between where Taufik and the Palace under the Aegean Sea, but now with his injured body, he even had difficulty opening his eyes, even his healing was also slow.

"...we must get rid of that person, otherwise the influence of the gods on earth will be reduced or even destroyed, The man must be killed by any means necessary"

After swimming for a while longer, Triton was finally able to see the Glimpse of the Palace beneath the Aegean Sea.

The guards who saw Triton arrive with serious injuries immediately panicked and quickly went to pick up Triton who seemed to have no strength left to continue moving.

"Young God, what happened to you, who dared to do this to you?"

Asked each of the guards one by one, but instead of answering their questions, he ordered them.

"... Quickly take me to my father, I have to report something very urgent that involves not only us but all the Olympian gods!"

------------

- A few days later.

Nothing major happened after the Triton incident; only a few times they encountered the Rifts, which delayed their voyage a little, but that was a problem that even Marzuki and his crew could solve easily.

But facing the Beast that came out of the Rift, although they were fine but not with their ship, which was slightly damaged, so they had no choice but to stop when they arrived at the Iberian Peninsula (Now Portugal) was an Arab Islamic state ruled by the Umayyad dynasty.

They stopped for a while to replace damaged parts of the ship and at the same time replenish their food, because after all, Marzuki didn't want to continue to depend on Taufik, and Taufik didn't have a problem with that, after all, they had already covered almost half of their journey, and in In half a day's sailing, they would pass through the Strait of Gibraltar, and it would also be nice to touch land after several days at sea.

After everything was repaired, they continued their journey; their journey was still quite far because after passing the Strait of Gibraltar, they still had to pass through four seas, namely the Alboran Sea, the Balearic Sea, the Tyrrhenian Sea, and then the Ionian Sea before they reached their destination.

After half a day of sailing, nothing major happened; they managed to pass through the Strait of Gibraltar easily and safely and then sailed in the Alboran Sea.

The Mediterranean Sea is a busy sea traffic with trade, this is also the reason why news about the 'Holy Kingdom' can quickly spread to the outside world, gaining a lot of 'followers' in a short time, all because of the traders who pass through the Mediterranean Sea.

Even so, they were still able to sail calmly and without disturbance, and when several more days had passed now, they entered the Ionian Sea area, and soon they would enter the Aegean Sea area, which might be a little dangerous because that sea area belonged to Poseidon, who had a feud with Taufik.

"... What with that face, Ranjana? It's rare for you to show that kind of expression"

Marzuki asked when he saw Taufik, who was contemplating while looking out to sea.

"... I don't know, It's just- No, Nothing, I'm Alright"

Said Taufik, who then turned around and went towards Aksara, who was playing with the crew, leaving Marzuki behind with a curious gaze.
