"...But it's not as early as yours." Ian looked at Nero helplessly.
He knew that she would definitely be very attached to him because of her past experiences, but he didn't expect that she would go to the extent of not caring about her surroundings or the people around her.
"Umm, there's nothing I can do!"
Nero also leaned his head on Ian's arm, rubbing his chest very deliberately.
"Who told the teacher to sneak out last night?"
"..."
Although he didn't expect to be discovered by Nero so quickly, Ian did not hide anything.
He nodded, "Something happened last night, so I did meet Atalanta on the deck."
"..."
After receiving this answer, Nero's eyes dimmed little by little.
"Teacher, does Yu no longer have any attraction to you?"
"You... like other girls more now, right?"
"..."
Ian looked at the young emperor beside him. At this moment, her face was drooping on the man's arm, and she looked very lost.
"Nero, why do you feel that way?"
"Because--" Nero muttered.
"When I leaned against the teacher like this before, the teacher always said that he wanted me to serve him as his wife, right?"
"But now, the teacher has completely lost this urge, right?"
"..."
Nero was always straightforward when it came to her jealousy, and Ian had the perfect solution for her behavior.
"Well, I wanted to enjoy these things after solving the problem."
"But if Nero cares so much—"
The man's hand gently pulled the girl's lips, allowing her to show her teeth.
"Then I have to buy Nero something to drink."
"Hmm~ Yu's alcohol tolerance is not bad at all!"
"It's okay. This cocktail party will be over when the sun rises."
Ever since——
As the sun was about to rise, a cocktail party was held in the cabin of the Golden Deer for teachers and students.
Nero skillfully held the champagne prepared by the man, turned the cork little by little, and then tasted the flavor at the bottle mouth.
At this time, Ian also touched the cherry decoration that the girl carried with her, which had a faint rose scent on it.
Everything is not much different from before.
The only difference was that there were Mashu and Atalanta sleeping nearby.
Unlike most girls who are too shy to face the situation, Nero seems to be very willing to let Ian see what she is doing.
Even with the cherry decoration pulled, she still didn't forget to show the man how she looked when she was stained with the color of the wine while tasting the fine wine.
Soon, as Nero's teeth merged slightly, the young emperor achieved her true purpose.
She felt the lingering fragrance between her teeth, playfully exposed her tongue that was completely soaked in wine, and spoke in a triumphant tone:
"Teacher, you really do what they said you would do."
"what?"
"Nothing." Nero shook his head, "Just some whispers."
"And teacher, don't waste time talking--"
The young emperor held the champagne she had just opened.
"I said so."
"I can drink as much as Rome."
"Then I want to see how much you can drink." The man stroked the girl's cheek with his fingers.
However, what Ian and Nero didn't know was that unlike Mashu who was actually asleep, Atalanta, whose bed was a little further away, had actually been spying on this dawn cocktail party.
after all--
She is also a kitten who loves to sip milk.
however--
Although Nero's behavior added a slightly more erotic atmosphere to the Golden Deer, it could not change the group's predicament at the moment.
Of course, everyone knew that they should set out now to find the Argol.
But the crux of the matter is -
Where can I find it?
The Oceanus Sea is so vast that it is not easy to encounter a ship.
Ian realized that this would not work, so he placed his hope on the Invisible Island.
If you can go to that island, you will basically have a 100% chance of meeting Jason and then finding Fujimaru Ritsuka.
But then new problems arise.
Where is the invisible island?
The last time he went to this place, Ian did not paddle there by himself, but relied on Demeter's "navigation" to reach the mysterious island.
It would be a bit too much to ask a man to recall the route he took now.
As for Drake, he can't be relied on at all.
"Invisible Island?"
"What are you talking about?" The generous female captain put her hands on her waist, "Is this the place where the treasure is buried?"
"..."
Well, it seems that Drake is not the way to go either.
Ian didn't expect that after going around in circles, he would end up back to the starting point.
The only difference is that the question has changed from "how to find Fujimaru Ritsuka" to "how to get to the invisible island".
only--
Ian knew that he must not spread that feeling of powerlessness at this moment.
"Let me think about it."
The man thought so, and then contacted Chaldea.
But unfortunately, the Invisible Island has never been recorded on any official map. Even with computing power as strong as BB, it is impossible to find such an area.
Ian never dreamed that the information isolation set up to protect the three Gorgon sisters would now become an obstacle in his search for Fujimaru Ritsuka.
how so……
Things started to go in a bad direction.
however--
It seemed as if there was a mysterious force guiding something, or fate did not like the ending that Ian could not find Ritsuka Fujimaru.
Things took a turn for the better three days later.
Although Ian said nothing, Atalanta was no fool.
She could feel that the man was suppressing the restlessness in his heart.
That was a sign of wanting to find the girl named Fujimaru Ritsuka as soon as possible.
but--
Atalanta also realized that even if she realized this, she would not be able to help.
Where is the so-called invisible island?
There is no way.
The only thing this little cat girl could do was to pray to the moon goddess Artemis over and over again on moonlit nights.
"Artemis, goddess of the moon, I pray to you sincerely in the name of Atalanta."
"Please do it for me..."
Atalanta looked around and confirmed that there was no one around, then continued cautiously.
"Show my husband the direction to the invisible island."
Everything seemed perfect until Atalanta was tapped on the shoulder.
"Eh--!"
Looking back at Ian standing behind her, the kitten's tail stood up.
"Master, when were you here?!"
"That's not important."
Ian looked up at the sky.
"Atalanta—"
"Can you teach me how to pray to Artemis, the moon goddess?"

Ian wouldn't do something without a reason.
When he decided to speak out, he must have had his own thoughts behind it.
For example, now——
Unable to find any other solution on the Golden Deer, he tentatively placed his hope on Artemis, the moon goddess mentioned by Atalanta.
of course.
Men are not the type to start having unrealistic fantasies based on just a few words.
He suddenly had this idea after he felt a certain resonance in the words Atalanta had just said.
To be more specific, it is like a reaction between radio waves.
"Well……"
Atalanta looked at the man beside her, and in his forest-like emerald eyes was an indescribable confusion.
"Master, what do you want to do?"
"Hmm..." Facing the cat girl who was looking at him curiously, Ian hesitated for a moment and then explained in a relatively tactful way.
"Atalanta, if you must ask——"
"Maybe I just think that two people praying together is much more effective than one person praying alone."
"and--"
Ian pointed to the night sky.
"If I heard correctly, you were introducing me to Artemis, the moon goddess, as his wife, right?"
"Wouldn't it be weird if I didn't come out?"
"..."
A blush crept up Atalanta's cheeks, turning her skin, which was originally bleached by the moonlight, into a shy look that symbolized the girl's mood.
"I didn't expect that the master wouldn't mind me calling you like this."
