Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 39 Sunshine After the Rain
Dark clouds gathered and thunder rumbled. The gloomy sky was like a gaping wound, and the torrential rain poured down like a waterfall.

The wind howled, whipping up towering waves that surged forward one after another.

Clap!

The continuous lightning illuminated the sea, revealing a giant ship hiding within it.

Rumble!
One thunderous roar after another, like the resounding war drums of heaven and earth, inspired this warrior who went against the current and kept breaking through the giant waves!

Inside the cabin, Yaro, who had already crammed all the tables and chairs into the fixed spaces in the walls, was now sitting in the empty space, practicing a horse stance with his eyes closed.

The giant ship's constant rocking motion was detected by Yaro, who used his 'Cat-Shaped Fist - Climbing Tree' perception ability. He then exerted his strength layer by layer, like a ladder to intercept a flood, breaking down and dissolving the force, keeping his feet firmly on the ground.

From the moment the ship entered the Thunder Sea, Yaro had been training like this.

Using this method, they quickly adapted to their suddenly strong bodies, and at the same time, they used this method to adapt to how to exert force on the ship.

Rumble!
The thunder outside the window stirred his blood and qi, but it couldn't disturb Yaro's breathing for even a moment; he had already made all the preparations.

thump!
The persistent feeling of falling jolted him out of his trance.

The roaring thunder gradually subsided, the chilly wind suddenly disappeared, and the warm, briny smell of the ocean wafted through the cracks in the wooden window.

The sky has cleared up!
Yaro stood up, hesitated, walked to the windowsill, and gently pushed open the wooden window. The dazzling sunlight shone on his short golden hair.

The sun shines brightly outside the window, and gentle ripples spread across the sea. Several seabirds fly carefree in the air, occasionally letting out soft calls.

Feeling the gentle sea breeze and hearing the loud cheers of young children echoing from the cargo ship, Yaro took a deep breath and turned to walk towards the bathroom.

After washing up, Yaro dressed himself in various clothes in an orderly manner, picked up his knight's sword, and walked steadily toward the deck.

With Desi's deliberate indulgence, a group of teenagers on the ship had a number of conflicts in private in the past, and some of them are still lying in bed unable to move.

This is why, apart from a few individuals, most of the others have formed small cliques and are wary of each other.

Upon arriving on the deck, the boys, who had already split into several small groups, immediately greeted Yaro.

Good day, Mr. Yarrow.

"Greetings, Young Master Yaro!"

……

Yaro smiled and returned the greeting, then glanced around and immediately noticed the girl in the group of people dressed in hemp clothing—Isa!
Noticing Yaro's gaze, the girl quickly stepped out of the enthusiastic crowd and bowed respectfully to Yaro: "Young Master Yaro, thank you for taking care of me the other day."

Looking at the beautiful girl, whose face was still pale and who barely had the strength to walk, Yaro sighed inwardly, nodded and smiled, "Isa, are you feeling better now?"

"much better!"

Two adorable dimples appeared on Isabella's fair face, and her clear eyes conveyed her joy.

"Thanks to Young Master Yaro's kindness the other day."

"Otherwise, I might not have made it this far."

Isa closed her eyes, tilted her head back to face the blazing sun, and her fair collarbone stood out prominently beneath her greyish-white linen dress.

"Is this what my mother always talked about, the sunshine after the storm?"

"It feels so good!"

Knowing the inside story, Yaro gripped the sword hilt tightly. Facing the dazzling sunflower bud, he felt a strange sense of guilt. His gaze darted away, and he could only give a dry reply: "It is quite comfortable. Well... well, I'm going to sunbathe too."

The girl woke up with a start and quickly apologized, "Young Master Yaro, I'm so sorry, please forgive my rudeness..."

Before the girl could finish speaking, Yaro had already quickly stepped aside and hurried away.

Walking to a less crowded corner, I ran into Desi, who was filling out something.

"Brother Yaluo...hey, why did you shave your hair so short?"

"My hair felt a bit long, so I just shaved some off with my sword."

Yaro wasn't in the mood for small talk and said directly, "Brother Desi, I'm going to sunbathe. I've been cooped up for days."

Noticing that Yaro was not in a good mood, Desi didn't say anything more and nodded understandingly.

"Row."

The deck was now filled with the boys' little gang, and when they heard that Yaro wanted to sunbathe, they all invited this "young master" who was the most "noble" in status.

Yaro, however, was too lazy to get involved in their nonsense. He grabbed the wall to the side and, as agile as a big cat, quickly climbed up to the messy platform above the cabin.

Walking into the shadow of the thick mast, he leaned against it, half-lying down, holding his knight's longsword, and facing the warm sea breeze, Yaro stared blankly at the calm sea.

After a long while, Yaro finally came to his senses and sighed as he thought about his momentary daze.

Calm down, Aro.

You knew all along that you couldn't save anyone.

Don't think of giving alms to others just because they are too weak; it's something you yourself are powerless to do.

After thinking this through, Yaro closed his eyes, quickly clearing his mind of any distracting thoughts, and soon fell into a state between sleep and wakefulness.

Suck~
Call ~
Yaro's muscles were trembling slowly, his heart was beating slowly and heavily, and fresh blood was constantly flowing into his strong body.

Until—a strange commotion suddenly broke out on the deck.

"what is that?"

"It looks like a seagoing vessel as well."

"It seems much smaller than our ship!"

The young trainees were unaware of the seriousness of the situation.

"It seems like they're coming for us."

The trainees were able to do simple orientation identification.

In that short time, the ship was getting closer and closer, and the trainees even noticed that the deck of the ship was also full of people.

Through the occasional reflections, one could see that they were all holding various weapons, yet they were jumping around haphazardly, as if they were having a noisy dance party.

"Stop the ship!" The shouts could be faintly heard from the ship.

Yaro gripped his longsword tightly and looked up.

So... they were pirates?
So, the way to test death is to fight pirates?
Or perhaps they accidentally encountered pirates?

However, regardless of whether it is an accident or not, as long as the mortality rate is achieved in the end, the death test is considered to have been successfully passed.

As the ship drew closer, both sides could vaguely see each other's flags.

Yaro had no more illusions; the flag on the opposite ship was the skull and crossbones flag, a symbol of robbery and slaughter.

"It's the academy's transport ship. There must be a lot of knight breakthrough potions on it. Hurry up, don't let them get away!"

"Knight Breakthrough Potion! If we steal it from them, even if we quit, we can still go back to our hometown and be knights!"

"Yes! That's right!"

The one-eyed, burly man standing at the bow of the ship shouted fanatically, urging everyone on: "Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Chase after them! The ship is full of brats. Kill them all! Don't let a single word get out!"

Yaro was speechless.

Since you see that everyone on the ship is a teenager, why do you think there might be knight breakthrough potions on board?
Moreover, can't you see the direction this ship is heading?
Will the cargo ships coming from the outside world also carry Knight Breakthrough Potions?

Could it be... that his mind has been influenced by his mother?

Chaos erupted on the deck.

"Where is the wizard?!"

One of the students asked this silly question.

A student immediately provided the answer: "The wizard left long ago!"

"So... what about the crew members?"

Yeah, those crew members were all big and burly, they looked like they were not to be trifled with, so why haven't we seen them lately?

"Oh no! All the cabin doors are locked!"

"Lord Desi, Lord Desi is also missing!"

The trainees grew increasingly desperate, and they could hear the pirates' relentless shouts.

"Kill them all! Kill them all!"

With sails billowing, the pirates, their expressions frenzied, rowed furiously, constantly adjusting their course to pull closer to the giant ship that was drifting with the current.

"I don't want to die!"

"Open the door! Open the door now! I'm about to become a full-fledged wizard, how can I die here!"

"You've come to the wrong place! We're all trainees! There are no potions here!"

The people on the deck were like ants on a hot plate, each making different choices, hoping only to escape with their lives.

"Quiet!"

Yaro strode to the platform, looked down at the deck, and posed the most pointed question: "What are you still hoping for? If they were willing to help us, why did they lock the door?"

Why did Desi, who was sunbathing here just now, leave quietly?

Compared to the days before, Yaro had deliberately talked to them quite a bit and had taken good care of them on a daily basis.

Furthermore, they all believed that Yaro, being from a wizarding family, must possess many extraordinary abilities.

Therefore, seeing that Yaro was still there calmed the panic on the deck somewhat.

Seeing that no one came forward to refute him, no one questioned the matter, and no one questioned whether he knew the inside story, Yaro couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He didn't care what the teenagers thought, but at this moment, it was best if they could unite with him and rely on their own strength to get through this ordeal.

Once this matter is over, any further doubts they may have will be irrelevant to me.

"Mountains crumble, people run away; only self-reliance can ensure a continuous future!"

"Stop clinging to any illusions! You can hear the pirates too. If you don't want to die, pick up your weapons!"

After saying that, Yaro stopped paying attention to the boys.

Jumping off the high platform of the ship's cabin, Yaro drew his knight's longsword and ran quickly toward the direction from which the pirate ship was approaching.

Some teenagers followed Yaro's footsteps and rushed over, while a few more rational ones immediately began to rally the people around them and issue various subtle instructions.

The pirate ship was approaching, and the fanatical faces of the pirates on board were clearly visible.

When they reached a certain distance, they all cheered and shouted in unison, and countless grappling hooks were quickly thrown over, while countless pirates continuously fired arrows to provide cover.

Although Yaro managed to dodge quickly thanks to his reflexes, two of the boys who had followed him were still shot and bled profusely. Meanwhile, the pirates cheered with glee, and more arrows rained down on the fallen boys.

The screams gradually subsided, and many timid girls spontaneously let out piercing screams.

Amid the noise, a boy called out urgently.

"Quick! Find some planks around here. Their arrows are weak; planks can block them!"

"Hurry! We must cut their ropes as soon as possible!"

It was Max Shaffer's voice, Yaro recognized.

No wonder, I had heard him say before that his family owned a shipyard, so he naturally had some knowledge of naval warfare.

Since there is a good solution, Yaro will not argue with others for the sake of saving face.

Fortunately, there were already plenty of planks on the deck, all for preventing the ship from leaking.

Yaro had already scouted the area. Crouching down like a lizard, he quickly crawled to the nearest plank, picked it up, grabbed the edge, and charged forward again.

Thank you, thank you so much for your support today!
