atch.

“What is it?”

“Did anything change?”

But nothing changed, leading to more elves murmuring.

“Pfft.”

This was too funny, so I had to turn away and hold in my laugh, but some of it still escaped.

“You?”

Andrew looked at me as if he had just gotten smacked across the face.
I really wanted to savor this face, but I whispered in his ears how to actually get in.

“If this is another lie, I don’t care about the island.
I’m just gonna give it all up.”

Andrew glared at me once, then shouted to the island once again.

“Island of lost souls, I have come forth to relieve you of your injustice, so please grant the entry of Andrew Coldriver of the Coldriver family.”

Krrrrooom!

This finally worked.
The sound of crying stopped, and the fog covering the island all went away.

“It’s true!”

“Can we go in now?”

The elves applauded at the sight, but still no one dared to get off.
They were definitely scared of becoming like the elf earlier.

“What is up with you guys? Are there only scaredy-cats here?”

I jumped off the boat like it was nothing, after a pathetic expression.

“See? I’m fine.”

When I looked up at them after landing on the beach graciously, the elves just got ready to disembark.

“By the way, can you just release me already? Until when do I have to go around tied up like this?”

I twisted my body and emphasized the ropes around my body.

“Fine.
But first, you need to hand over your sword.”

Bonnie pointed to a pirate member to bring him my rapier on my waist.

“You are going to regret it.”

I warned them, knowing what would happen, but

Tsssssk!

“Ahhh!”

The elf who ignored my warning screamed as soon as he grabbed my sword, and then shoved his burnt hand into the pile of snow.

“Told you.”

As I let out a faint laughter, Bonnie went over to the scarred elf with a cold expression.

“Hand me over your palms.”

Was he looking after his crew? But Bonnie grabbed his hand again then placed it on the sword once more.

“Ahhhh!”

The elf screamed in pain, but no matter how much it burned, Bonnie used the other elf’s hands to grab and throw the rapier to the ground.
I didn’t know that he would do something like that for real.

“There.
Now, you may release her.”

The elves awkwardly let go of the knots over my body.

“Aren’t you treating your subordinates a bit too harshly?”

For the first time, I felt sorry for the elf rolling on the floor grasping his hands in pain.

“A pirate is still a pirate without one hand.”

Bonnie spoke carelessly and went into the island with the other members.

“I feel like just standing here still would freeze me to death.”

The elves walked ahead while looking around the place.


“The temple will appear soon.”

I whispered to Andrew in secret.

“The temple? What happens when we get there?”

I told Andrew what to do once we reached.

“Is that the temple?”

A moment later, the temple made of marble appeared in front.
There were two giant doors that stood as if it wouldn’t let us pass so easily.

“What do we have to do now?”

Bonnie looked at Andrew.

“Like this.”

Andrew acted as if he knew the answer all along and then recited ice magic while he placed his hands on the door.

Kazam!

The door of the temple froze from Andrew’s magic, shattered like glass, then dropped to the floor.

“I’m glad my mana has recovered.
There was no need to wait until I could use magic again.”

I pretended to act excited as I watched him.

“You better.
If the magic hadn’t worked, what would have shattered is not the doors but him.”

Bonnie even expressed his relief in a violent manner.

“You sound scary.”

Andrew pretended to be frightened at Bonnie’s words.
Bonnie looked at Andrew once, then brought his subordinates into the temple.

“Wait.”

As I was trying to step inside, Andrew held onto me.

“Why?”

“How do you know all this? It’s as if you’ve already been here.”

Andrew’s confusion was understandable.
Still, even if I told him that I read the novel, he wouldn’t understand. 

“I will just say that I got a prophecy from the gods.”

Then Andrew made a questioning face.

“A god? Which one?”

“There is just something like that.”

I smiled at Andrew, then walked inside the temple.
