Chapter 113: Chapter 112 Classic Tsundere Quotes

"Prepare for launch!"

With the high-pitched call from the Mermaid Leader, a group of Sea Demons simultaneously released the ropes they were holding, and the huge trade ship slid off the shore and into the harbor waters.

"Boom!"

The massive entity crashed into the water, splashing vast waves that instantaneously hit Yila, Satan Ye, Hilena, and Xiao Gang on the shore... but none of their clothes were the type that would get wet.

Yila and Satan Ye’s clothes were magic armor, which dried instantly within a second, Hilena wore leather, which didn’t get soaked, and Xiao Gang was an Iron Demon Statue, which wouldn’t...

Um... Iron Demon Statue?

"Will you rust? Do you need help drying off?"

Yila shook his head, tossing the wet strands of his hair to dry them a bit, and asked Xiao Gang, who was covered in droplets. Xiao Gang promptly shook his head, indicating he wouldn’t rust.

"Ugh! My hair is all wet..."

Satan Ye adorably complained, her tail swishing irritably on the ground, with Hilena behind her, wiping her hair and dragon horns with a cloth.

After wiping, Hilena looked at Yila and, without asking if he needed help, started wiping his hair directly.

"..."

In Hilena’s gentle movements, Yila could smell the fragrance from the cloth, not sure if it was the fragrance of the towel or the scent absorbed from Satan Ye’s hair.

"Demon King, Mr. Xiao Gang, Ms. Hilena, and... Yila."

The Naga Leader swam over, greeting everyone and reporting: "The first ship of the year in the Demon King Territory successfully launched, and all aspects are looking good. Should we give it a name?"

In this world, no... it’s the same in any world, people always like to name a ship or a car to represent its identity or to express some emotions.

*The Naga Leader’s intention was undoubtedly hoping Satan Ye could give it a name.*

"Hmm, let me think..."

Satan Ye thought hard, looking quite conflicted. If it were Yila, he might name it something like "Natural Selection" or "Millennium Falcon," but he decided not to joke around.

*Because no one in this world would understand the joke, it would be meaningless.*

"I think we should call it Trade One."

Satan Ye nodded as she suggested the name, seeming somewhat satisfied with her choice, and she said: "Simple and easy to remember, it should be okay, right?"

Indeed, it was okay, but just okay.

*Realizing that Satan Ye might not be good at naming, Yila didn’t say anything because the name was indeed simple and easy to recognize. They went onboard the ship with the Sea Demons.*

*This was another test voyage. If the speed and stability of the journey could be guaranteed, then the trade ship would be considered successfully built. Once the people from Silver Moon Tree Court arrived, high-speed maritime trade could commence.*

There are many valuable specialties in the Demon King Territory, whether it’s the White Ball Wine still brewing or the Corpse Fragrance Potion, they were quite good resources, while Blue Bean Mushroom still lacked significant value.

*After all, it’s a universally sad knowledge every world shares—that the highest prices are often for products with added value, so food usually can’t fetch good prices.*

In other words, the valuable ones are luxury goods because nobles have a thousand times the spending power of civilians.

"Wow, so fast!"

Satan Ye exclaimed in surprise, watching the sails above her blowing fiercely, astonished at the ship’s arrow-like progress. Was it the swordfish exerting force at the bottom?

Apparently not, the swordfish was just an auxiliary measure; it played a more significant role in turning rather than speeding up or increasing top speed.

"Because, we can hear the song of the sea."

The Mermaid Leader explained, looking at the ship leaving the shore, she said: "Ms. Pirila endowed the sea with her rhythm. As long as we can understand her singing, we can easily advance."

"..."

"In other words... ocean currents? The sea has fixed directional flows that can help propel the ship forward."

Yila said this while everyone looked at him. In the Mermaid Leader’s expression of "Eh? You even know this?" he gently shook his head and said: "I don’t understand this field, I’ll leave it to you."

"Ahem... Lord Yila, even you don’t understand?"

Hilena said, looking somewhat weak.

"..."

"Don’t think of me as an omnipotent person..."

Yila said helplessly, concernedly looking at Hilena, who seemed unwell, and asked along with the others: "Hilena, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Hilena forced a smile, replying with a somewhat pitiful smile: "I’ve always been like this, just... not very accustomed to the sea."

*So it’s seasickness.*

*Come to think of it, during the last fishing boat trial, Hilena also stayed pale and silent in the corner of the boat, not participating in the conversations between Sea Demons, Yila, and Satan Ye.*

*So last time, Hilena was probably feeling bad too.*

"You aren’t unaccustomed to the sea, just unaccustomed to ships."

Yila said, patting her tender back, hoping she would feel better, and said: "If you sit on ships enough, you’ll gradually get used to it. But this process will be quite painful, or you could choose not to board ships."

"You can keep flying or stay on land; there’s no absolute necessity to sit on ships."

Although Yila said this, Hilena still shook her head reluctantly and said: "I’ll try to adapt. Someday in the future, I will need to be on the ship... Ahem, ugh~~"

Rushing to the side of the deck, Hilena grabbed the railing and leaned her head down, vomiting everything she couldn’t digest, then turned back around with a completely pale face.

*What a pity.*

Yila shook his head sympathetically, looking at the Merfolk who could sense ocean currents, the swordfish and Shield Shells accompanying the Merfolk, then looking at the Nagas.

*It seemed like the least useful race among the Sea Demons were the Nagas.*

*While Yila thought this, the Naga Leader sensed something, and they exchanged a displeased look with Yila, saying: "Hey, Yila, what are you looking at?"*

Yila knew his gaze might have been somewhat rude.

"Sorry."

So, Yila apologized simply, casually shifting his gaze and calmly said: "I just think your tail looks beautiful, especially under the sun, reflecting multi-colored lights."

"..."

"Just... just because you say that doesn’t mean I’ll be happy."

...

*What was this? Textbook-level tsundere?*
