Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 2321

Just one look and Ambrose immediately clenched his fists in anger and excitement. A man stood on the back of an enormous shark, with his arms wrapped tightly around the fin. It seemed like he was chasing after something. Donoghue Dixon was dressed in a monk's robe, and he had an arrogant expression on his face. The creature he was hunting dashed forward in the water. It looked like a fish, but the crowd's jaws dropped in awe when they saw what it was. It was a girl, and she could not be older than 17 years old, with blue silky long hair and a curvy figure. She wore something that seemed to be out of the world; it was formed by countless scales sewed together delicately. It made her look like a fish.

"A Sea Mackie?" Hidden Dragon stared at the girl in the water blankly and mumbled in awe, "Who would have thought? The legends within Ruins Sea were true; there really are Sea Mackies."

Everyone was frozen in place; they were speechless.

"Brother Dragon!" Eira snapped out of the initial shock and asked, "What is a Sea Mackie?"

Hidden Dragon took a deep breath and explained slowly, "A Sea Mackie belongs to a clan that protects the ancient secret of the Ruins Sea. Legend has it that they migrated to the Ruins Sea thousands of years ago. They live there for most of their lives, so their culture and practices are entirely different from ours. Did you see her clothes? That's made with fish scales, making them look like fish from a distance, hence the Sea Mackie name. "

Hidden Dragon vibrated with excitement as he explained that. Ever since he became a pirate, whispers of the Ruins Sea's ancient secret and the legend of the Sea Mackie never left his ears, but he had yet to witness any proof of those until then. A Sea Mackie, right before their eyes, when they arrived at the edge of the Ruins Sea. That was when Dixon had spotted Hidden Dragon and Ambrose on the back of the gigantic shark. His expression darkened with frustration. How dare those people tracked him all the way there!

He had captured that gigantic shark the previous day in the deep sea. Dixon could not swim, but with the power of the Sky Breaking Axe, he had managed to tame the shark and use it to travel freely on the ocean.

Dixon laughed. He had given up on the hunt for the Sea Mackie girl, and instead, he turned to mock Hidden Dragon and the others. "A bunch of useless pirates! Who do you think you are, chasing after me? One of these days, I am going to throw all of you into the ocean as fish baits," Dixon spoke with absolute confidence as if everyone was beneath him.

Hidden Dragon could never hold his temper; Dixon's words and expression had ignited his anger. He tightened his grip on his blue sword and shouted at Ambrose. "Kid, go ahead and help that girl; I'll take care of that stinking monk." Hidden Dragon sprung into the air and headed toward Dixon's direction.

"Brother Dragon, be careful!" Ambrose shouted back in response. Then, he jumped into the water without any hesitation to help the girl.

Even though she was wary, the girl relaxed when she realized that Ambrose did not mean her any harm. As they reached up to the deck, her body shivered as she remained alert.

"What is your name? Why did that man chase you?" Ambrose asked softly.

Everyone gathered around the girl; they were more curious and more enticed than ever. Oh, what a beauty! She had delicate features, and the scaly clothing emphasized her slim figure.

The scales shone in glorious colors that complemented her deep blue hair. It was hardly an exaggeration for one to describe her as a fairy princess from the great ocean. The girl felt uneasy when the crowd focused their attention on her. She took a few seconds to calm herself before she turned to thank Ambrose.

"Thank you. My name is Heather, the princess of the Sea Mackie Clan. I came out to play today, but that bad man saw me and had been chasing after me ever since," she said.
