“Cosmic Sect obtained a bale of spirit turtles from somewhere, Mr. Seizon. These spirit turtles can traverse the Night Sea freely and are wholly unafraid of the storms. It's precisely for that reason that they managed to ambush our airships and appropriated many of them,” that disciple of Stellaris Sect explained.
“Spirit turtles?” Cloud went silent.
“Cloud, let's get the situation straight first, then set sail and explore the sea. Perhaps your father and the others are fine,” Jared interjected.
He knew that the man must be lost at that moment and had absolutely no idea what to do.
“Okay. We'll set sail and check out the situation!”
Cloud nodded in agreement. Subsequently, he turned to that disciple and instructed, “Go and buy a few tickets right away. I want to go out to sea.”
At his order, the disciple admitted in a conflicted tone, “There are no more tickets for the near future, Mr. Seizon. They've long since sold out. After news of there being magical items at the Night Sea spread, many people rushed over. Consequently, the tickets for spirit ships are sold at an exorbitant price. Even then, the demand still surpasses the supply.”
“D*mn it! How useless! Didn't the lot of you know to prepare a few tickets?” Cloud instantly lambasted in fury following the man's words.
“Can't we go out to sea if we don't have tickets?” Jared asked in puzzlement.
“No, but there's still one way to obtain tickets,” Cloud replied in a whisper.
“What way? Buy them from others at a high price?” Jared queried.
However, Cloud shook his head. “By snatching them. The tickets are without names, so they belong to whoever has them in hand.”
Upon hearing that, Jared found it to be a great idea.
Yeah, we can snatch two tickets from someone else outright. Something like that is not uncommon in the Ethereal Realm, after all!
“Where shall we snatch them?” By then, Quinley's interest was also piqued.
“At the dock, of course! Only those who bought tickets would go there to board the ship,” Cloud declared.
