Zeno watched Genbu's gaze carefully, however he could not believe it directly, it could be that what came out of Genbu's mouth were sweet words that were a trap he made. At first glance there may be no face of lies from Genbu, even Zeno immediately felt that what Genbu did was something very serious, moreover he did not feel any suspicious signs of Genbu.
The thumb finger was bitten very strongly, revealing fresh blood coming out of Zeno's thumb. Carefully, Kiba dripped a drop of blood onto Genbu's head, which was part of a contract ceremony with beasts performed in general. Even Zeno had done it three times before.
“In this way, the legend of the guardian of the direction of the northern wind is willing to become the subordinate of the lord. I, Genbu, will make a land a protector of the lord, so that no one will be able to harm the master.
“I accept your loyalty. The name Genbu is a legend, but before me you are no longer Genbu. Just like Kiba, in legend, he was named Byakko, but before me he was named Kiba. Hence the legend of Genbu, your name is now Skarlos of the North.” Shouted Zeno said out loud.
“Skarlos from north, very good name.” Skarlos slightly raised the tip of his lips before continuing his conversation. “Alright, I really like the name you gave me. At least it also makes you easy to call me.”
Kiba sighed and smiled widely afterwards, about Genbu who was very stubborn turned out to be outside the reality that happened. Though previously he had thought that his master might have serious injuries when faced with Genbu who is now called Skarlos.
Zeno withdrew all his subordinates, even Skarlos, now leaving only Zeno and Lothar and his subordinates. Zeno noticed Lothar's strange gaze, his mouth wide open as well as raised eyebrows, indicating that Lothar really could not stop to be surprised after seeing what happened. Not only the lothars, even the rest of the crew also wore the same expression as the master.
“Wait for master, how are we going to get out of here? We are in the middle of the ocean, even the distance of the Arctic continent seems to still be very far.” Said one of you screaming like crazy.
Lothar then realized that he was really trapped this time, the ship he was on was also destroyed, while the position this time has been in the middle of the ocean that is impossible to swim back to the continent of five countries or return to the Arctic banua. It made the lothar hold his head and run indistinctly.
Zeno looked at them with disdain, only a matter like this made Lothar confused, when it should have been, as the owner of the ship, Lothar was already used to this kind of incident.
Zeno looked away at the expanse of the sea in the southern region of the island, slightly he narrowed his eyes to see a small dot moving towards him.
“See, there is a passenger ship.” Zeno pointed towards the south.
------
The luck this time might have been on Zeno and Lothar's side, otherwise, they might have been stuck in the middle of the ocean for a few days while waiting for help to arrive. In addition, this passenger ship also comes from the continent where Zeno lived which has the same goal, which is to the Arctic continent. However, the route is a shipping lane between the two continents.
Zeno simply told Lothar to tell him what had happened to the ship they were on without telling him what had happened afterwards. Moreover, Zeno did not particularly like the matter being told to strangers.
“Prince Fang Zeno, if you may know, what is your destination for the Arctic continent.” Asked one of the stewards who was serving Zeno.
“Maybe my goal could be to look for the water emperor who served before emperor Fang Tan. More precisely before emperor Fang Yoshi handed over the imperial Throne to emperor Fang Tan.” Reply Zeno.
The servant was surprised when he heard Zeno's destination to the Arctic continent, “I just found out that the prince's father was in the Arctic continent. My mother had previously told me that the emperor of the country gave up his post to his father and wanted to go as far as possible because he felt he could not protect the mistress Arina who was pregnant with you. The rest of my mother, even the people do not know where the current emperor Fang Zhuo went.”
“Mr Fang Zhuo will definitely be very happy after knowing that you are a child who at that time could not be saved.” And imagining it actually happening.
“For sure, I really can't imagine it happening. For fifteen years never met, it was something that missed me so much.”
“Prince, I go first. Make sure you really enjoy the service of our ship.” Said the servant who bowed and then left Zeno.
Zeno thought for a moment while sipping a cup of tea prepared by the steward who was prepared for him. “It should have been a coincidence if grandfather told me to go to the Arctic continent. That is, previously grandfather also knew where the father went at that time, and it must be another purpose why the father chose the Arctic continent as a place to calm down.”
“Master, if you may know, have you ever met the figure of the grandmother or wife of Mr Fang Yoshi?” Kiba asked in Zeno.
Zeno again sipped hot tea, then answered Kiba's question, “No, why? It's likely that my grandmother is dead, although I actually want to see her figure too.”
“I've heard from the master's grandfather, that the Ice Sword came from the wife of the master's grandfather, or literally it came from the master's grandmother. And master understood right, where did that Ice Sword come from? Right, the Ice Sword you are using is from the continent we are heading to right now.”
“So that means?” Zeno asked frowned.
“If the Ice Sword is from the Arctic continent, while the master grandfather got it from his wife, it makes a question in my mind, plus the mind of the master always says that your father headed for the Arctic continent there must be a cause. So you know what I think?” Zeno continued while explaining in detail to Zeno.
Zeno opened his eyes wide and almost spouted tea while listening to what Kiba said, now he understood more, and the theory released by Kiba made more sense again. That is what makes Zeno can understand why his father chose the Arctic continent as a place to calm down.
