Chapter 162: The Black Whale

.......

King Nasubi has declared that his country will build 20 of these ships in one year. He also promised to send 100 million people to the Dark Continent within 5 years, ambitious indeed but possible especially considering that the black whale was designed to be simple so as to reduce the building cost and increase the production rate.

Since the Black Whale is too massive to be tied up at a dock, airships and ferries are employed to transport people and supplies to and from a seaport and it took quite some time to transport 200000 people which is how much black whale 1 can handle.

The ship will carry many notable figures including the Kakin royal family and members of the Hunter Association and V6 who will extend their journey further to the actual Dark Continent.

The Black Whale 1's passengers are divided into five separate tiers (further subdivided into several decks) according to their wealth and social class: those traveling in the first and second tiers are the wealthiest passengers on board, including the royal family and prominent members of the upper class and their staff, while the lower three tiers are zoned for general passengers.

The throughways dividing the tiers are guarded by the royal army since the entirety of the ship is under martial law. More specifically, the second and third tiers are separated by a thick bulkhead which can be only opened in emergencies from the second-tier side.

In order to move between the third and fifth tiers through the Central Passages, passengers need to buy tickets from the royal army.

Yasuo and Morena's quarters happened to be in the first tier in a quarter similar to the princes, and something strange many didn't expect is that the only people from the silver snake family that are within the ship are only the previous two and Orilin and a less than ten of his henchmen.

Something Natsubi didn't expect at all as he expected from the silver snake family to take over the last three tiers which are 3,4,5 respectively, however, that didn't happen at all which is a good thing as Morena and Yasuo's influence is something to be feared and he can't use the family card against her considering how she is.

So now at least, that massive manpower under their hands isn't here to make things harder but even the two that stands upon that power are too dangerous to be missed with, however, he knows he can't interfere in the succession so he can't really advise any of them.

'Hopefully, he won't mess around causing the contest to fail.' Hoped the Kakin empire's King not knowing that the succession contest will definitely succeed, it's just that the winner is someone he won't expect at all.

Yasuo and Morena walked hand in hand throughout the first tier strolling around before heading to the large dining room where several people are already talking with each other.

Every in the first tier and the second tier have some kind of high status and position or some achievement and some of them want to secure more relationships with similar people and what better place to do so than the dining room and there are several of such rooms to accommodate the number of people in the tier.

They took a seat at one of the available tables and ordered lunch, not many people are here as most ones are preparing for the departure ceremony where everyone will be later tonight in the main hall that's large enough to accommodate everyone in this tier.

They had lunch then went back to their large quarters already neat and tidy with their belongings also well organized then just messed around for a while, after all, they didn't see each other for a long time so they will for sure spend as much time as they can with each other.

Of course, there is a ceremony in the evening and they plan to go. Yasuo wore a black suit jacket with a black tight shirt beneath it and black pants, dark leather shoes.

Morena on the other hand wore something that complements her bright angelic white hair, a silver halter dress, and white high heels shoes, they looked perfectly matched especially with Yasuo's silver eyes that brought a new light to his attire.

And Morena couldn't help but take a long look at Yasuo unable to take her eyes off him, she really felt like she should just go back to bed and continue what they were doing igniting her desires again, she circled her arms around him and went for a deep kiss sticking tightly to his tight frame.

"You look gorgeous." Yasuo's remark was quite simple stating how he feels and she responded back, "And you look handsome, too handsome to the point it scares me how many women you'll attract, competition..."

She said that but she looked pleased proud of the fact that she will be the only one that'll stand by him for eternity and she knows to heart as she continued, "But don't worry, I can't allow them to annoy you when you're so busy with me so I will get rid of each one of them just for you..."

Yasuo was thoroughly amused by her sly words but he didn't care, instead, he lifted her small glossy left hand saying, "Sure and I'll reciprocate back and one last thing."

He brought his right hand close to her hand, his hand in which a silvery shining ring appeared, a special ring. The silver ring has an exquisite pattern all around making it look more elegant than it already is especially with the large diamond attached to it that's also patterned making it look like an unrivaled piece of art.

Yasuo put the ring on the fourth finger of her left hand while explaining, "This ring is quite special, it's something I worked on personally and it's unbreakable."

She reflexively took another ring he just handed her, a simpler silver ring without a diamond but with similar patterns inscribed on it, she looked forward to this day for years so how could she miss this opportunity, she instantly put the ring on his finger and hugged him tightly hiding her face in his chest muttering, "Thank you..."

Yasuo started caressing her smooth hair with a smile of amusement on his face allowing her to calm down, the woman that was just remarking about how she will exterminate every other woman in the world that set her eyes on him turn into a shy girl that simply found it embarrassing to show her face to him.

He just waited until she calmed down and took her to wash her face then they headed arm in arm to the ceremony hall where most people are already present, instantly, his control domain picked a few interesting signs, guardian beasts.

Guardian beasts all around walking with their owners, A Guardian Spirit Beast, a parasitic type Nen beast possessed by the king and princes of the Kakin Empire. They are instrumental to the unfolding of the Succession Contest and they were born once the egg truly hatched.

All Guardian Spirit Beasts are imbued with two primary instinctual rules: they do not fight and kill one another; they do not attack another human whom a Guardian Spirit Beast is protecting.

That means they have to find other ways to kill each other and become the last survivor and the King that can potentially rule over the entire known world and beyond, that's just how abnormal the guardian beasts are.

Natsubi has 14 legitimate children that are currently all participating in the contest since none of them can refuse but there are only a few of the guardian beasts within the hall while some are strolling around the ship or are with their owners that didn't show up.

Yasuo's steps remained as silent as always on contact to Morena whose steps attracted the attention of some who wants to have more connections within the ship so they turned their head looking at the special visitors, the strange and special people that are walking down the stairs leading to the large hall.

How could people not find them strange? The special colors are obvious to all in the middle of the bunch of normal people. White shining hair with pitch-black eyes and the silver dress, she instantly took the spotlights from all else.

The bright silver eyes and the smooth black hair falling to them complemented by the black clothes and handsome tranquil face and well, they suited each other perfectly.

Yasuo picked two wine glasses from one of the waiters then handed Morena one and continued walking towards who Yasuo really wants to talk to though before he can do so, Tserriednich walked up to them with a formal smile on his face, "We meet again."

And he added directly after, "So I heard none of your family other than you got aboard the ship." That of course had a heading meaning behind it.

Years ago, he made a deal with them to support his ascension to the throne and while their level of power and influence had surpassed his expectations by far, he still thinks it's useful for them to support him as he will grant them even more authorities within the empire.

he knows he can't kill someone at their level as that'll just bring more hardships but why do so when they can benefit both from each other?

They don't have a reason to say no, that's why he was surprised when he took a look at the number of passengers of the silver family that amounted to no more than ten people.

Yasuo smiled as if he just remembered that deal and explained, "About that, we're just here on a vacation and aren't interested in any trouble at all so excuse us..."
