I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 75: Monster Brother

With an intense curiosity for the unknown, Rogel continued perusing the books.

At this moment, he was vaguely wary of the attribute of faith and decided not to upgrade this value for the time being.

The state of the game character could feedback into his real-life body.

Being unconsciously influenced by some god’s faith would be terrifying.

As he kept reading, time passed slowly.

Rogel’s frown deepened.

Finally, his hands came to a halt.

The travelogue also stopped on a certain page.

"The beginning of one journey is also the end of another..."

"... I traveled aimlessly with a merchant ship, attempting to find something interesting in the mundane while heading to Bali Island, but what I didn’t expect was that the novel content I longed for nearly cost me my life because our ship encountered a dreadful tsunami at night..."

"... My goodness, I really don’t know how I survived and reached this magical place, nor do I know if the generous captain and his crew are still alive..."

"... These plump creatures seem to boil something in a cauldron with an indescribable taste... like a stew? I hope describing their creation this way won’t get me beaten up..." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"... Heavens, you would never believe what I saw— they poured the stew into one of their own’s mouth, and then that plump creature screamed madly while tearing off its own skin. Damn, it’s bloody..."

"That plump creature actually turned into a human? And then back again, like a piece of clay? This is too strange! Oh my, are they wizards? What kind of miraculous witchcraft is this?"

"I think I need to find a way to leave here. I don’t want to be noticed by them and become the next test subject..."

This is a traveler’s journal.

It recorded his journey across the Five Major Seas.

The earlier content was rather ordinary, with some descriptions of humanity or praises of food.

Among them, it’s not hard to spot fictional content.

However, this description was particularly realistic; he even detailed the process of his escape and the appearance and habits of those "plump creatures."

This piqued Rogel’s interest slightly.

It seems these are creatures capable of preparing secret medicine?

Maybe there’s a chance to visit Bali Island since it’s supposedly within the Giant Claw Sea Area.

Perhaps he could find a way to learn magic potionmaking from this.

After noting it down, Rogel continued to flip through the books.

A moment later, Rogel took a deep breath.

Although not much, it indeed was a gain, quite decent.

He put down the books in his hands and turned to look at Louis Kaiya, who was waiting beside him.

"Let’s hear what you need."

Rogel spoke.

Though he didn’t particularly need the conditions Louis Kaiya offered.

Since he obtained some useful information from his collection, listening to his request wouldn’t hurt.

Of course, if the request was too outrageous, he would certainly not agree.

"Thank you, esteemed Captain Rogel..."

"Wait a moment."

Just as Louis Kaiya was delighted, Rogel suddenly interrupted.

"... Please keep your words brief and to the point."

"And I must let you know, I might not be able to help you."

These nobles’ certain modifiers, honorifics, and habitual endings seemed ingrained in their bones, which gave Rogel a headache.

Upon hearing this, Louis Kaiya simply nodded silently, then began stating his requirements.

"Mr. Rogel, I need your help to check out a monster... to be specific, it’s my brother, Vilencea."

See, this isn’t so hard to articulate.

Rogel internally rolled his eyes and then began to inquire about specific related information.

Louis Kaiya withheld nothing.

Rogel quickly learned the specific information from his account.

Vilencea, Louis Kaiya’s brother, not long ago was an ordinary person.

However, shortly after the Mother Goddess Church arrived, Vilencea’s behavior became extremely abnormal.

First was an enormous appetite.

During that time, Vilencea was constantly ravenous, appearing gaunt as if he hadn’t eaten for days.

With the affluent background of the Kaiya Clan, they naturally wouldn’t let him starve.

They were also seeking doctors for him.

But the doctors couldn’t find the cause of Vilencea’s ailment.

After a period of ravenous eating, Vilencea suddenly became obese, like a giant meatball one day.

Then, one day, he reverted to normal.

Until one day, he suddenly went berserk, tearing off his face skin at the dining table, pinning down his father Leokaya and his mother, and spat two worms into their mouths.

Vilencea’s next target was, naturally, Louis Kaiya.

Luckily, the guards of Kaiya Castle arrived in time to restrain Vilencea.

After being attacked by Vilencea, Louis Kaiya’s parents slipped into a coma.

While Vilencea transformed into a manic, grotesque monster.

Louis Kaiya confined him in the basement.

Initially, he worried about Vilencea starving to death.

But what happened later proved his worries unnecessary.

Louis Kaiya’s parents’ bodies continuously withered, while the monster Vilencea transformed into remained unharmed.

This made Louis Kaiya realize that the key to his parents’ changes might lie in the two worms Vilencea spat out.

Further discoveries by Louis Kaiya revealed that the monster brother wasn’t particularly powerful.

But it seemed unkillable.

When the guards restrained it, they accidentally slashed its throat.

Yet Vilencea stood up again after falling, and the wounds healed.

This led Louis Kaiya to realize it wasn’t something he could deal with.

So, he began to seek an extraordinary.

He planned to negotiate with the Mother Goddess Church for an exchange, hoping they’d examine and resolve the issue.

However, the only Devoted Knight in Nadewilo had already been killed by Rogel.

Thus, Louis Kaiya’s gaze naturally shifted to Rogel.

After listening, Rogel pondered for a moment, then looked up at him.

"So you believe this is inextricably linked to the Mother Goddess Church?"

Louis Kaiya nodded.

He didn’t harbor any good feelings toward the Mother Goddess Church.

Additionally, this incident occurred after their arrival, so it’s clear he would suspect the Mother Goddess Church.

It indeed is related; I even think it’s the doing of the Mother Goddess Church...

Rogel thought silently to himself.

After all, without his intervention, after such an incident, the Kaiya Clan would surely turn to their Mother Goddess Church.

The Mother Goddess Church has significant motives.
