10 - Trident 三叉戟

The guest room I used to sleep.

我曾经睡过的客房。

In it, I lay, dead tired from the break of dawn. I9;m sure my face was quite pale. It was painful to move, and I felt terrible.

我躺在里面，天刚亮就累得要死。我想我的脸色一定很苍白。动一动都很痛苦，感觉糟透了。

A bucket was left nearby, and Novem was in the room nursing me.

旁边放着一个桶，诺维姆在房间里照顾我。

“Lyle-sama, are you alright? Do you want some water?”

"莱尔大人，您没事吧？要喝点水吗？"

The deterioration of physical state before a Growth.

成长前身体状态的恶化。

It was coming out in me quite evidently, and I was also being battered by seasickness. From yesterday evening, I9;d already spit up a number of times, and caused trouble for Novem and Monica.

这在我身上表现得非常明显，我也被晕船折磨得够呛。从昨天晚上开始，我已经吐了好几次，给诺维姆和莫妮卡添了不少麻烦。

Shannon stopped by the room to observe my state.

香农在房间里停下来观察我的状态。

“Uwah, how terrible…”

香农"哇，好可怕......"

She looked over my weakened form with a delighted face. Behind her, stood Monica with laundry in hand.

她一脸欣喜地看着我虚弱的样子。在她身后，站着莫妮卡，手里拿着洗好的衣服。

“Little girl. The Chicken Dickhead9;s Fever Time is coming. Please quiet down.”

"小姑娘。鸡头的发烧时间就要到了。请安静下来。"

"香农呢？"

米兰达目不转睛地盯着坐在床头翻阅的那本书。

“At Lyle9;s place. That girl9;s too curious to help it.”

"如果你把身体擦干净，你就会感到安心。好吗，莱尔大人？"

➐

“Where9;s Shannon?”

Miranda didn9;t take her eyes off the book, sitting atop the bed, flipping through the pages.

… Aria called out to Miranda, who was reading a book in their room.

... 阿瑞雅叫住了正在房间里看书的米兰达。

自从我离开房子后，我感觉我的性格变得越来越糟糕了。

『… It9;s become lonelier here than it was at the start, thought.』

"是啊，他这种状态已经有好几天了。他一起床肯定会高度紧张的。"

She looked down at Shannon with an unpleasant expression, but when she looked at me, she was smiling…

『但是莱尔身边变得热闹起来了，这不是很好吗？你看，我们一开始就不该来这儿。就当是我们见证莱尔成长的幸运吧。』

She was truly delighted as she recommended for me to change. Novem gave a biter smile, as she stood, and extended a hand to me to help me stand.

五爷的声音只是比平时低了一些。

"在莱尔家。那姑娘好奇心太强了，没办法。"

“Just leave me alone. And I9;m definitely not failing this time. You hear that? Not happening! I9;ve already failed four times. The fifth time… the fifth time onwards will be different.”

"这不可能。绝对不可能。现在让你自己更难堪吧。"

当我把毯子盖在头上时，香农笑了。

看到她如此亲切地照顾我，我听到了宝玉的声音。是四爷的声音。

The Third sounded as aloof as usual.

为我坚持到底的是老七。

"鸡头，我已经洗过你的床单了，你的衣服也完好无损！现在换个衣服怎么样？你不能穿着又湿又粘的衣服迎接你的发烧时间。"

『......这里比一开始更孤独了，我想。』

她真的很高兴，一边推荐我去换衣服。诺维姆露出一个咬牙切齿的笑容，她站起来，向我伸出一只手，扶我站起来。

『他从一开始就一点都不成熟。你勾起了我的一些回忆。在第一家客栈，她给你洗头，你却不以为意，视若自然。』

Aria9;s face turned a little red, and she touched her hand to it to hide her embarrassment.

Seeing her nurse me so kindly, I heard a voice from the Jewel. It was the Fourth9;s voice.

（他们又在说那个莱尔先生吗？该死的，我以前总是克制不住自己，这肯定是这些家伙的错！）。

“It9;s impossible. Definitely impossible. Now embarrass yourself more.”

Clara had gotten quite used to the boat, but her health declined whenever she tried reading, so she was outside taking in the outside air for now.

他们表现得好像这是件好事，但我只能从 "成长 "这部分感受到恶意。

Aria had finished her daily training on the deck, so she had returned to the room with a towel around her shoulders.

There, Novem embraced me, and carefully lifted my body. I was probably making a terrible face, but she smiled as she sat me up, and began stripping off my clothes.

米兰达一边和阿瑞雅交谈，一边继续看书。

“If you wipe down your body, you9;ll feel relieved. Okay, Lyle-sama?”

When I pulled my blanket over my head, Shannon laughed.

阿丽雅把毛巾挂在床铺的栏杆上，脱下了自己的衣服。脱下被汗水粘在皮肤上的衣服后，她开始翻包找换洗的衣服。

阿瑞雅已经结束了在甲板上的日常训练，所以她肩上围着一条毛巾回到了房间。

"从某种意义上说，那是他最好的时候。他不会感到丝毫羞愧或尴尬，所以大约只有在这种时候，他才能尽情展现自己的能力。他以前从未像这样出战过，但我真怀疑他是否比平时的莱尔更强壮。"

The one who followed through for me was the Seventh.

『But it9;s gotten lively around Lyle, so isn9;t it all fine? See, we shouldn9;t even be here to begin with. Think of it as a spot of fortune we get to witness Lyle9;s Growth.』

三世的声音一如既往地冷漠。

"别管我。这次我绝对不会再失败了。你听到了吗？不会了！我已经失败四次了。第五次......第五次以后就不一样了。"

But taking her hand was a pain.

在那里，诺维姆拥抱着我，小心翼翼地抬起我的身体。我的表情可能很难看，但她微笑着让我坐起来，开始脱我的衣服。

“In a sense, that9;s him at his best. He doesn9;t feel the slightest bit of shame or embarrassment, so that9;s around the only time that man can show off his abilities to his fullest extent. He9;s never gone out to battle like that before, but I really wonder whether he9;s stronger than the usual Lyle.”

但握着她的手是件痛苦的事。

They were acting as if it were a good thing, but I could feel nothing but malice from the ‘Growth9; part of it.

And since I left the House, I get the feeling my personality has taken quite a run for the worse.

她低头看着香农，表情很不愉快，但当她看向我时，她笑了......

The Fifth9;s voice was just a little lower than usual.

“Chicken Dickhead, I9;ve washed your sheets, and your clothes are in perfect condition! Now how about a change? You can9;t greet your Fever Time in such wet and sticky clothes.”

“Yeah, he9;s been in that state for a few days now. He9;s sure to be in high tensions once he gets up.”

克拉拉已经很习惯船上的生活了，但每当她想看书时，她的健康状况就会下降，所以她暂时在外面呼吸外面的空气。

『He9;s not matured at all from the start. You9;re bringing back some memories. At the first inn, she washed your hair, while you remained unmindful, and treated it as natural.』

『嘿，在他完成成长之前，他的健康会被击垮。暂时没办法。不过回想起来，你确实成长了不少，莱尔。』

『Hey, his health will be shot out until he9;s done with his Growth. There9;s no helping it for now. But thinking back to the beginning, you9;ve sure grown quite a bit, Lyle.』

Miranda continued reading the book as she conversed with Aria.

阿瑞雅的脸有点红，她用手摸了摸脸，掩饰自己的尴尬。

Aria hung her towel over the railing of the bunk, and took off her clothes. After taking off the garments that had been stuck to her skin from her sweat, she began looking through her bags for a change.

0;Are they talking about that mr. lyle again? Dammit, it9;s definitely these guys fault that I was never able to restrain myself before!1;

“It9;s common to make mistakes in a post-Growth state, so isn9;t it a general rule to avoid battle?”

"在成长后的状态下，犯错误是常有的事，所以避免战斗不是一般的规则吗？"

“… That9;s right, but I can9;t help but wonder. In all actuality, just how strong is a serious Lyle? Aren9;t you curious?”

"......没错，但我不禁要问。实际上，认真的莱尔到底有多强？你不好奇吗？"

After wiping down her body and changing, Aria sat on her bed.

擦拭完身体，换好衣服，阿瑞雅坐在床上。

“Serious? He9;s still holding back?”

"认真？他还在隐忍？"

Perhaps Miranda had finished the book, as she closed it, and set it on the bed.

也许米兰达已经把书看完了，她合上书本，把它放在床上。

“He9;s not. But just what would happen if he used all his Skills to their fullest. Lyle has eight whole Skills, does he not? Even if they9;re Support Class, shouldn9;t that number be formidable? That blue gem of his has been handed down for generations, so there are no duplicate Skills in it; it9;s needlessly amazing.”

"他没有。但如果他把所有技能都发挥到极致，会发生什么呢？莱尔不是有整整八个技能吗？就算是辅助类的，这个数字也应该很厉害吧？他的那块蓝色宝石是世代相传的，里面的技能不会重复，不用说也很厉害。"

Unable to comprehend the meaning behind her words, Aria tilted her head. So Miranda sighed, and gave an explanations.

无法理解她话里的意思，阿瑞雅歪了歪头。于是米兰达叹了口气，给出了解释。

“You listening? When you9;re in a time of crisis, and you have no choice but to manifest a Skill, then it9;s common for body-strengthening, or some other simple Skill to manifest. But if you have those simple Skills from the start, you9;re going to get something different, right?”

"你在听吗？当你处于危机时刻，你别无选择，只能表现出一种技能，那么表现出身体强化或其他一些简单的技能是很常见的。但如果你从一开始就拥有这些简单的技能，你会得到不一样的东西，对吗？"

Aria nodded.

阿瑞雅点了点头。

“I kinda get it. My red gem also has a body-strengthening Skill. And wait, I still don9;t really know how it differs from Lyle.”

"我有点明白了。我的红色宝石也有一个强化身体的技能。等等，我还真不知道它和莱尔有什么不同。"

"我不好。这堆积如山的文件到底是什么？为什么扎因和洛菲斯的文件会被直接送到莱尔先生在贝姆的豪宅里！"

马克西姆看着堆积如山的表格。

“… He9;s a hero who9;s done magnificent service for both countries, so I don9;t believe it strange for these sorts of documents to come. I-is it strange?”

看着米兰达立刻进入了梦乡，阿瑞雅开始思考接下来的日子该如何度过......

她嘟囔着说。

“I9;m not alright. Just what is this mountain of paperwork? Why is paperwork from Zayin and Lorphys being delivered straight to Mr. Lyle9;s mansion in Beim!?”

Maksim looked at the mountain of forms.

Bursting into Adele9;s room, Maksim saw the girl fall prostrate over her desk, and called out.

冲进阿黛尔的房间，马克西姆看见女孩瘫倒在书桌前，便叫了起来。

She muttered that.

是阿黛尔。

"当然奇怪！为什么报告会到这里来！？为什么提案要征求他的授权！？那个人到底做了什么？还有，这封来自洛菲斯公主的信......竟然是一首情诗！这是什么？你做了什么，莱尔先生！"

Similar strengthening Skills.

Maksim threw his towel aside, took up his spear, and leapt into the mansion, heading straight for Adele9;s room.

The blue gem one, a strengthening Skill of the Support Class.

It was Adele.

"......他是个英雄，为两国都立下了汗马功劳，所以这些文件送来我不觉得奇怪。我--奇怪吗？"

“There9;s no way a non-specialist like me would be able to explain it. But you can tell there are some subtle differences, right? More importantly, I9;ll be rotating out with Novem, and taking care of Lyle tonight. I9;ll be getting some sleep now, so please don9;t wake me.”

阿瑞雅说话了。

米兰达把书拿到房间里的一张小书桌前，躺了下来，把毯子披在身上，闭上了眼睛。

… Beim; Lyle9;s mansion.

"这是什么意思！！"

Automaton No. 2 was maintaining the yard, and the two of them were the only ones visible in the entirety of the vast mansion.

类似的强化技能。红色宝石蕴含着先锋级的强化技能。

“WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIIIIIS!!”

蓝色宝石一颗，是辅助类的强化技能。

In the large estate, Maksim was swinging about his spear in the yard to polish up his Skills.

There, Adele hit her palms against the desk top a number of times.

➐

“If this was masters, I9;d preserve and worship it… hah, let9;s get back to work.”

Aria spoke.

“Are you alright, milady!?”

Automaton No. 2 collected up Maksim9;s towel, and offered a line.

Slowly raising her face, Adele sought salvation from Maksim with teary eyes.

“Eh? I never heard anything about… and she9;s already asleep!”

马克西姆遗憾地垂下头。

Seeing Miranda instantly fall asleep, Aria began to think over how she would spend the rest of her day…

Miranda brought the book to a small desk in the room, lay down, draped the blanket over herself, and closed her eyes.

阿黛尔叹了一口气。

阿黛尔慢慢抬起脸，用泪眼向马克西姆寻求救赎。

"我道歉，夫人。我无能为力......"

在偌大的庄园里，马克西姆正在院子里挥舞着长矛，打磨他的技能。

"阿黛尔女士！！"

“Lady Adele!!”

"像我这样的非专业人士是没办法解释清楚的。但你能看出其中的细微差别，对吗？更重要的是，我今晚要和诺维姆轮流出去，照顾莱尔。我现在要去睡觉了，请不要吵醒我。"

But even if there were some differences here and there, they demonstrated similar effects. Miranda raised her hands in the air, and assumed a pose of surrender.

"诶？ 我从来没听说过......她已经睡着了！"

“I apologize, milady. There is nothing much I can do to…”

不过，即使这里和那里有些不同，但它们表现出的效果却大同小异。米兰达举起双手，做出投降的姿势。

马克西姆把毛巾扔到一边，拿起他的长矛，纵身跃入宅邸，直奔阿黛尔的房间。

"如果这是主人，我一定会保护它、崇拜它......哈，我们回去工作吧。"

类似的强化技能。

马克西姆无休止地重复着基本动作，擦了擦汗，正准备休息一下，忽然听到宅子里传来一声尖叫。

The red gem contained a strengthening Skill of the Vanguard Class.

“Of course it is! Why are the reports coming here!? Why are the proposals seeking his authorization!? Just what did that man do!? What9;s more, this letter from the Princess of Lorphys… it9;s a freaking love poem! What is this!? What did you do, Mr. Lyle!?”

"你没事吧，夫人！"

......贝姆；莱尔的宅邸。

Maksim endlessly repeated the basic movements, wiped off his sweat, and was about to take a break, when he heard a scream from the mansion.

2号自动机正在维护院子，偌大的宅子里只有他们两个人的身影。

Maksim hung his head in regret.

在那里，阿黛尔多次用手掌敲击桌面。

Adele let out a sigh.

自动机 2 号捡起马克西姆的毛巾，说了一句话。

“Then can you get me a refill on my drink, Maksim? They9;re apparently going to be picked up today evening, so I9;ll have to have them done by then.”

"那你能帮我续杯酒吗，马克西姆？他们显然要在今天傍晚去取，所以我必须在那之前把它们弄好。"

He took a cup from a tired Adele. Maksim put his spear under his armpit, and held the cup quite preciously, as he left the room.

他从疲惫的阿黛尔手中接过杯子。马克西姆把长矛放在腋下，颇为珍视地捧着杯子，离开了房间。

“I9;ll have it ready at once!”

"我马上去准备！"

As Maksim dashed down the hallway, automaton maid No. 1…

当马克西姆冲向走廊时，自动女仆一号......

“Don9;t run in the halls.”

"别在走廊里跑。"

Offered him a warning…

向他发出警告......

➐

… It was around when the ship voyage was entering its sixth day.

... 大约是在飞船航行进入第六天的时候。

Lyle was still bed-ridden.

莱尔仍然卧病在床。

At this point, it was agony for him to even let out words, and if someone talked to him, they9;d only get a, ‘meh…9; or, ‘yeah…9; in response.

这时候，他连说话都很痛苦，如果有人跟他说话，只能得到 "嗯...... "或 "是啊...... "的回应。

The bridge was about to enter dangerous water, so Vera had checked his room to confirm he was still in a horrible state.

『我，我看到了什么！天空乌云密布......』。

船长对惊慌失措的水手喊道，希望他能得到更确切的信息。

Vera looked out the window of the bridge, before rushing out of it.

“Those goddess of fortune rumors again? Don9;t go there. They drive all the men away, and I9;m quite troubled here.”

她自己还没有认清他们的关系。但在薇拉的印象中，一个人不是时间问题。这位年轻的仆人才华横溢，而且性格认真。

『I-I can see something! And the sky is clouding over…』

The captain shouted at the panicking sailor to get some more definite information.

And that was the part that had drawn her in as well.

这也是吸引她的地方。

She herself had yet to recognize their relations. But Vera was under the impression that one wasn9;t a problem of time. The young servant was talented, and blessed with an earnest personality.

薇拉想起了她的妹妹，还有那个在宅子里工作的年轻仆人。她们的年龄相仿，而那个在宅子周围帮忙干活的男孩......他曾是维拉的初恋情人。

在这之前，天气一直很好。海鸟在船上飞来飞去，但现在它们完全消失了。旋转的雨云在天空中盘旋，雨开始下了，薇拉把黑发向后推了推，看着前方。

桥即将进入危险的水域，所以维拉检查了他的房间，确认他仍然处于可怕的状态。

She knew the red parasol the boy had given her as a present was something her sister put out money for, and asked him to buy.

"夫人，冒险者们的情况如何？有几个人行动还算镇定，但那个人还没露面，水手们都开始担心了。"

Vera recalled her younger sister, and the young servant who9;d worked at the mansion. Their ages were around the same, and the boy who assisted in work around the mansion… he had been Vera9;s first love.

维拉望着舰桥的窗外，然后冲出了舰桥。

薇拉不假思索地汇报了她的所见所闻。

“Well that9;s quite a… anyways, we have you with us, milady, so there9;s nothing to worry about.”

The captain pulled his cap down, and gave a dry smile.

The captain raised a loud laugh.

她并没有继续拖下去。但当那个男孩长到可以驾船出海的年龄时，他开始追求的却是她的妹妹。姐妹俩并不冲突，薇拉甚至说她会支持她。

Vera offered a light response of, ‘and how nice that would be,9; but inside, she didn9;t feel all that well.

“Milady, how are the adventurers faring? A few of them are moving around quite calmly, but the man has yet to show himself, so the sailors are getting worried.”

She wasn9;t still dragging it out. But when that boy grew to the age where he could take a ship out to sea, it was her sister he had begun to court. The sisters weren9;t at odds, and Vera even said she9;d support her.

Rather than worry, they were beginning to wonder if he9;d really be of any use.

“Then it9;s the men who9;ve got no eyes for women. You9;re a fine woman, milady, so they9;ll flock to you whether you like it or not someday.”

“What9;s all this? There wasn9;t any wind before… and this is…”

"又是那些幸运女神的谣言？别去那里他们把所有的人都赶走了，我在这里很烦恼。"

0;If father recognizes it, he9;s sure to be the successor. And I9;ll be stuck on this ship forever, will I…1;

船长拉了拉帽子，干笑了一声。

0;Hah, I really should have talked with him some more… once I get back, the three of us can sit down for a nice long…1;

Her sister was likely trying to be mindful, But Vera found herself becoming pitiful.

When she thought to herself, a voice came from one of the numerous metal tubes on the bridge. It was the one connected to the lookout post.

"那可真是......不管怎么说，我们有你在身边，夫人，所以没什么好担心的。"

当她抓住附近的栏杆时，船开始剧烈摇晃。

薇拉的表情有些僵硬，但她立刻笑了起来。

"他还处于生长前期，绝对不是什么好东西。时机太糟糕了。他们真的在外面，那些运气不好的人。不管是什么冒险者，一旦成为第一流的冒险者，我还以为他们得是运气比较好的，看来那个人不一样。"

"米拉迪，快进去！你会被淋湿的！"

就在她胡思乱想的时候，一个声音从舰桥上众多金属管道中的一个传了出来。它就是连接瞭望哨的那个。

一名水手跟在她后面，让她回去。

"那就是男人眼里没有女人。你是个好女人，夫人，不管你愿不愿意，他们总有一天会对你趋之若鹜的。"

（......不知不觉中，他已经开始和她正常说话了，可我一直是个女主人，不是吗？）

0;… Before I knew it, he had started speaking to her normally, yet I was always a milady, wasn9;t I. I9;ve always been called heartless, but it9;s honestly quite rough.1;

“He9;s still in a pre-Growth, and absolutely no good. The timing was too bad. They really are out there, those luckless folks. Whatever adventurers, once they got to be first rate, I thought they would have to be the luckier ones, but it looks like that man is different.”

与其说他们担心，不如说他们开始怀疑他是否真的有用。

Vera9;s expression hardened a bit, but she immediately smiled.

A sailor followed her, and told her to return.

Vera reported what she9;d seen without any falsehoods.

她知道，男孩送给她的红色阳伞是姐姐拿出钱，让他买的礼物。

（如果父亲认准了，他肯定是接班人。而我将永远被困在这艘船上，是不是......）。

The captain asked Vera about the state of her bodyguards, aka Lyle9;s Party.

（套近乎的人都是为了钱。当我在海上漂泊的时候，你还指望我遇到什么人？天哪......）。

船长向薇拉询问她的保镖，也就是莱尔党的情况。

The weather had been splendid right up that point. Sea birds were flying around the vessel, but now they had disappeared entirely. Swirling rain clouds were spiraling their way into the sky, and as rain began to fall, Vera pushed her black hair back, and looked ahead.

（哈，我真应该和他多聊几句......等我回去后，我们三个可以好好地坐一坐......）。

船长大声笑了起来。

0;The ones who draw close are all just after the money. And when I9;m out here on the ocean, just how do you expect me to meet a people? Good grief…1;

薇拉轻描淡写地回答："那该多好啊！"但她的内心却不是滋味。

When she gripped a nearby railing, the boat began to rock violently.

"这是怎么回事？之前一点风都没有......这是......"

“Milady, quickly go inside! You9;ll get wet!”

她姐姐可能是想关心一下她，但是薇拉发现自己变得很可怜。

Vera was looking straight in the direction of the boat9;s trajectory. And after pointing her hand at the sailor, she immediately gave orders.

薇拉直直地望着船行驶的方向。用手一指水手，她立刻下达了命令。

“Turn this boat around! Port or starboard, I don9;t care! Change our course at once!”

"把船掉头！左舷还是右舷，我不管！马上改变航向！"

But pushing the sailor to the side, the captain popped out his head.

但把水手推到一边，船长却冒出了头。

“Milady! The rudder isn9;t working! It9;s as if we9;re being pulled in, reeled in ahead!”

"夫人！舵失灵了！我们好像被拉住了，被卷在前面了！"

Vera mortifyingly looked straight ahead.

薇拉惊恐地直视前方。

There, showing its face from the water surface, was a large monster… no, one known as a god of the seas, a 【Trident Serpent】 was looking their way.

在那里，从水面上露出脸来的是一个大怪物......不，是一个被称为海神的怪物，一条【三叉戟巨蛇】正朝他们这边望来。

It had three heads, and the middle one looked just like its namesake… from the sides of its jaw, grew sharp protrusions unidentifiable as horns or fangs; they were made of an unknown metallic substance.

它有三个头，中间的那个看起来就像它的名字一样......从它的下巴两侧长出了尖锐的突起物，无法辨认是角还是獠牙；它们是由一种未知的金属物质制成的。

Such protrusion weren9;t on the other heads, but she noticed the six eyes of the three heads were looking their way.

其他的脑袋上没有这种突起物，但她注意到这三个脑袋的六只眼睛都在看着他们。

She could only despair. It was several times larger than the Vera Trēs, and from the eyes of sailors, a monster that was a difficult one to even try and survive against. Yes, it was a monster, and even if it was called a god of the seas, it was looking on them as prey.

她只能感到绝望。它比维拉.特里斯大好几倍，在水手们的眼里，这是一个连想在它面前生存都很困难的怪物。是的，它是一个怪物，即使它被称为海神，也是把他们当作猎物。

A little below where its heads forked off, she could see a large fin. It was floating on the surface, waiting for them to draw closer.

在它的头部分叉处的下方一点，她可以看到一个大鳍。它漂浮在海面上，等待着它们靠近。

"不会有什么好结果的。用枪指着海神。"

But a single sailor…

本该生病睡着的男孩公然无视蜷缩着的水手们，向船头走去。

Raising a face taken aback, Vera vexingly grit her teeth.

“Prepare for battle! We9;re not going to let ourselves go down just like that! This is a state-of-the-art ship, is it not!”

在甲板顶上，是那个蓝发少年的身影。

雨越下越大，薇拉瞪着眼前的三叉戟巨蛇......她注意到了那里。

“There9;s no way a cannon9;ll take down a god…”

薇拉的声音再次响起。"准备战斗我们不会让自己就这样倒下的！这是一艘最先进的船，不是吗！"

“… Get off the ship, milady. With a small boat, there9;s still a chance you9;ll get out alive.”

“There9;s no way I could run. It9;s the currents pulling this ship in.”

Bu the sailors were making expressions of despair.

她知道自己再也见不到家人了，但即便如此，也许这也是摆脱目前被禁锢状态的一种手段。

0;The hell am I thinking about? If we sink here, I9;ll really sink to the ocean9;s depths… ocean9;s depths? You9;re telling me that was a prophetic dream?1;

And on the deck, the sailors, sat, and held their heads.

他们陷入了绝望，甚至没有一个海员试图有所行动。于是，维拉又用拳头击打栏杆。

He was soaked by the rain, yet he continued across the shaking vessel, looked at the enemy, and…

他被雨水淋湿了，却继续穿过摇晃的船只，看着敌人，然后......

但一个水手......

"完美！！太棒了！那高大的身躯，那英武的轮廓，那威严的气势！你一定是我值得尊敬的对手！你一定是我雄伟的对手！"

Lightning fell from the clouds, and lit up the dark shadow of the Trident Serpent in a pale blue light. Its blue scales beautifully reflected the seven colors of the rainbow, as it eagerly awaited the arrival of its prey.

The captain seemed to have given up as well. Of all else, that9;s just how overwhelming the opponent was. The center head looked as if it were wearing a crown. A golden crown, and those sharp golden blades on the sides of its mouth.

Vera leaned in as she heard that elated voice.

"......让幸运女神见鬼去吧。看看这个。"

“… Even so, god of the seas there.”

"可是，夫人......我们面对的是一个神。"

"大炮是不可能打倒神的......"

水手们，坐着，抱着头。"......下船吧，夫人。用小船，你还有机会活着出去。"

“… Prepare for battle. Take out the cannons. We can9;t just leave this god of the seas to do as he pleases forever!”

看到三叉戟大蛇，船长把帽子尽量往下拉。

（我到底在想什么？如果我们沉在这里，我就真的会沉到大海深处......大海深处？你是说那是个预言梦？）

The boy who should9;ve been sick and asleep blatantly ignored the sailors curling up, and headed for the front of the boat.

“… To hell with goddess of fortune. Just look at this.”

Lyle spread his arms out with in the rain, and shouted out in a loud voice.

“A splendid opponent to commemorate this Growth! You shall… become the fuel for my money-raising schemes!! Fwahaha, FWAHAHAHA… *cough*! Swallowed a little seawater. The water spray here is awful.”

Vera slowly turned to look at the captain.

She knew she wouldn9;t be able to see her family again, but even so, maybe that was a means to escape from her current locked-down situation.

“What does he intend to do over there…”

她摇了摇头。

看着以 "三叉戟之蛇 "号为中心的漩涡状水面，维拉把拳头放进了栏杆。

Vera wrung out her voice once more.

As the rain grew stronger, Vera glared at the Trident Serpent before her eyes… and there, she noticed.

Looking at the swirling water surface centered on the Trident Serpent, Vera lowered her fist into the rail.

她的眼睛睁得大大的。"......准备战斗。把大炮拿出来我们不能让这个海神永远为所欲为！"

Together with is jaw, it looked like a three-pronged spear.

船长似乎也放弃了。这就是对手的压倒性优势。中间的头颅仿佛戴着一顶皇冠。一顶金色的皇冠，嘴边还有那些锋利的金色刀片。

"我根本跑不动。是洋流在拉这艘船。"

Atop the deck, the form of the young man with blue hair.

And she shook her head.

"他打算在那边做什么......"

薇拉慢慢地转过身来看着船长。

再加上它的下巴，看上去就像一把三棱长矛。

薇拉再次拧紧了嗓子。

而在甲板上，水手们坐着，抱着头。

“Nothing good9;ll come of it. Pointing a gun at the god of the seas.”

Seeing the Trident Serpent, the Captain pulled his cap down as far as it went.

"......即便如此，那里的海神。"

They were in despair, and none of the seamen even tried to make a move. So Vera hit her fist against the railing again.

维拉惊讶地抬起脸，苦恼地咬着牙。

“But milady… it9;s a god we9;re up against.”

布水手们露出绝望的表情。
