Xia Mu smiled, released her soft little hand, went into the room, and put the "key" away.
The aft cabin is not below, but also above the ship, with bright, large windows offering a clear view of the outside scenery.
A ray of the setting sun cast a brilliant glow on the clouds in the sky, making them look like orange-red scales—a breathtaking sight.
"Let's go to the deck to watch the sunset!"
Xia Mu became interested and waved to walk outside.
Erii tiptoed to catch up and slipped her soft little hand into his big one.
Stepping out of the cabin, a refreshing evening breeze caressed my face.
They went to the bow of the ship and took a closer look, discovering just how well-hidden this so-called tugboat actually was.
The rust is fake; the messy wooden crates are everywhere, but they don't look like they've ever been filled with anything; they look brand new.
Xia Mu was certain that this thing was no different from a warship.
The two walked to the pointed bow of the ship, held onto the railing, and let the wind blow their hair.
"Wow--"
Erii's small hands gripped the gunwale, her red and white shrine maiden skirt fluttering in the wind, revealing only a glimpse of her delicate calves.
Her fiery red hair was bathed in the same radiance of the setting sun, as if flames were burning.
Xia Mu turned to look at her, his eyes reflecting the flames.
“Eri, there’s a movie I really like.” He suddenly spoke into the wind.
Erii turned her beautiful face towards her: "What is it?"
"Titanic".
Xia Mu laughed: "There's a scene in it that made me feel really good when I was immersed in it."
"I want to see."
Erii immediately said.
"Okay, we'll go see it in a bit."
Xia Mu moved a few steps closer to her, almost touching her back from behind.
"Eri, actually, I'm worried about what Aki-senpai said too..."
He gripped the gunwale with both hands, and a soft voice rang in Erii's ear.
Erii found herself enclosed in the small space at the bow of the ship, and immediately felt at ease. She leaned back, allowing herself to be completely enveloped in his warmth.
Xia Mu's voice continued to ring out at this moment:
"Will you leave me after you understand everything?"
Chapter 110 I Am the King of the World
The unpredictability of life lies in the fact that friends who are firmly believed to be together, lovers who will never separate, and stories that are sure to have a happy ending can suddenly shatter at some point on some day.
Xia Mu doesn't consider himself the chosen one or the king of the world; he's just a lucky guy.
Rebirth, transmigration, and special abilities are all blessings from heaven, but none of this guarantees that he will get everything he wants, hold onto the warmth in his hands, or sweep away any darkness.
The outcome is always unpredictable.
What is controllable is the choice made at every moment.
Why should I leave?
Erii turned her head to the side, her bright eyes almost overflowing with confusion.
Xia Mu's chest pressed against her back, her long hair flying from his sides, exuding a pleasant sandalwood scent.
"Eri..."
His gaze fell upon the setting sun that blended seamlessly with the sky, and unexpectedly, the image of him jumping off the cross-sea bridge in his past life flashed into his mind. The sunset back then was just as beautiful as it was now.
"No matter what the future holds, in this moment I possess..."
Xia Mu released his hands from the gunwale and slowly placed them on her slender waist, pressing them against her warm, smooth abdomen. He leaned forward and rested his head on her thin shoulders.
Erii couldn't help but turn her head to look, but her cheek suddenly pressed against his face, feeling warm and cozy.
She couldn't bear to turn back.
Xia Mu closed her eyes, feeling the gentle breeze on her face and the warm softness on her cheeks.
“Don’t look at me,” he suddenly said softly, “look ahead.”
"Oh…"
Erii blinked reluctantly and slowly turned her head back.
At that moment, Xia Mu opened his eyes.
"Stand firm."
He spoke softly, removing his hands from her lower abdomen.
Before Erii could feel disappointed, he took the initiative to interlock his fingers with her two small hands at the same time, and then opened his arms with her.
The two stood at the bow of the massive ship, their clothes fluttering in the wind.
"If I were to add 'I am the king of the world' at this moment, it would be perfect."
On the second deck, Ye Sheng and Jiu Deya stood side by side, watching this beautiful scene unfold.
"I believe they will continue on this path." Shudeya clasped her hands tightly to her chest, her tone devout.
Ye Sheng smiled faintly: "Every couple in love will have a happy ending."
"Ok!"
Shudeya nodded vigorously.
"I am--"
At this moment, to their surprise, Xia Mu actually shouted into the wind and waves: "King of the World!"
Jiang Feng's powerful voice resonated throughout the ship, reaching the ears of everyone and bringing smiles to the faces of the executive officers.
This carefree and energetic attitude, unconcerned with the opinions of others, is characteristic of Kassel College.
in other words…
The entire college is full of immature kids.
"Hey, Professor, is this really okay? We're on a search mission."
A girl stands in front of a display screen inside the top-floor cockpit.
She was probably twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with black hair and a typical Latina beauty, wearing a combat uniform specially made for her by Kassel College.
“Call me Captain. My current identity is the captain of the Moniach, not your substitute professor,” Mans exhaled a puff of cigar smoke. “Selma, don’t be jealous of them. It’s only because you’re too picky that you can’t find a boyfriend.”
"Captain, look at the men surrounding me now, none of them have any manliness, they're all just support-type Word Spirits..."
Selma said with dissatisfaction, "The only one who has survived..."
She thought for a moment, then swallowed her words.
Mans glanced at her: "What's wrong with Ye Sheng?"
Selma shook her head: "It's nothing."
In the entire execution team, any slightly perceptive specialist would have noticed the shady dealings between Ye Sheng and Jiu Deya, but no one spoke up.

Of course, Mans, being such a roughneck, had no idea, otherwise he would never have allowed the two of them to dive down and carry out this mission.
Because only he knew how risky this mission was; things might go awry, or...
So he really didn't want Xia Mu and the other person to get involved, but unfortunately Principal Angers only had "dragon slaying" in his eyes.
"Drip drip drip drip!"
Suddenly, bright red dots lit up on the screen.
"What! It's a signal! A strong metallic signal!"
Selma was startled, then overjoyed: "Professor! We've found it!"
"I told you to call me Captain!"
Mans strode over, put the cigar away, and stared at the monitor.
But before he could be happy, the red signal dot suddenly disappeared.
"What's going on?" he asked, frowning.
"I don't know," Selma said, puzzled. "Is the signal detector broken?"
"Damn it? Those guys in the equipment department wouldn't be that unreliable."
Mans shook his head, staring at the monitor: "Stop the Moniach and probe carefully."
"Yes."
The Latina girl, Selma, answered immediately.
"I am the King of the World—"
At that moment, Xia Mu's voice came through again.
Selma frowned slightly: "This guy..."
"Drip drip drip drip!"
But at that moment, the traffic lights started flashing wildly again.
"Locate it! Quickly!"
Mans moved closer to the monitor.
Unfortunately, the traffic light went out again just as Xia Mu finished calling.
