"W-we'll check on them at once!"

One of the officers ran to the deck

And the result is--

"Food and water on 19 of the 25 ships was co six only have around 20 huh Damn those pirates"

The admiral crushed his hat in his hands and threw it on the deck

Since we apparently had three weeks worth of food and water, by sih to provide the entire fleet for a day

We're three days away froo back now

"If only we knee'd have taken those monsters' meat"

The ship chef muttered as he wistfully looked at the sea

We only took the ic cores fro that

Of course, I secretly stretched out e

"Ado back to Garleok City for--"

"Fools! Victory is right before our eyes!"

The admiral interrupted the officer

Looks like he's hellbent on subjugating the pirates no matter what

"It see to say?"

Since I' troubled, I offer to provide their food

"Food, you say? We're talking 'bout shares for 25 ships here ya know? Nois, there is no way it could hold food for 1200 people"

"Not really, no"

I h food to feed a city with one e

"For now, I'll provide drinking water and food, and also dehydrated vegetables for soup and dried fruits for dessert"

I pick out a storage sack with huge opening froe barrels filled ater and food from it one after another

"OOOOOO"

"Incredible"

"You're kiddin' me"

The sailors were surprised to see it

It's quite the ae barrels filled ater"

"And he doesn't look tired at all"

Looks like they were surprised atheavy barrels indiscreetly

"As expected of Demon Lord Slayer"

"Knew it, that ru subordinates yesterday did it fer' hiuy looks like a meek noble by appearance"

Attentive Ears skill picked up the sailors gossiping on the deck

"This h for this ship Well then, I'll be distributing food to other ships too"

"Y-you have on"

As I heard the ad voice on ht Shoes

It's way too o around the this not just out of kindness though--"

I secretly hidrevolt in each ship as I visited them

I can easily deal with a revolt even without the the revolt can be done with one cos easier for ician! The pirates are sailing slowly along the islands In "

An officer reported in place of the exhausted looking winda merchant ship Now's our chance, the split fleets should have enough ti to change the encircleo on the planned sea routes"

The admiral declared thus, and then the escort fleet split into two groups and departed toward the north and south of the Seaweed Archipelago

Fro to encounter the pirate fleets that are going to encircle this flagship fleet, so I si

"Have the flagship fleet stay on this route for a while"

Then the adives another order for us to have ato have a properon preserved biscuits

"--Earl-sama, I'm sorry to trouble you like this"

"Don't worry about it"

I helped carrying two barrels froetable soup in the kitchen

They'd get suspicious if the food was too fresh, so only the flagship fleet got meat other than jerky

"Smells so nice--"

"I can't wait"

The finished dishes were brought to the admiral's table one by one since those voices could be heard

Apparently, hierarchy is iht to admiral, officers and then sailors in order

The meal wouldn't start if I wasn't present with the admiral, so I left the rest to the head chef and went out of the kitchen

"WOOOOOOOOO"

The admiral who started his meal shouted out loud

The officers around us stopped their hands thinking that it was poison, but when they saw the ad his ood!"

"T-this stuff's incredible"

The officers present here praised the food

I'lad that they found it palatable at least

I also quickly take my meal

I'd feel sorry for the sailors who are stuck to watch the surroundings if I took it easy

"Eneht"

"What is this? There's twice the reported nuicians

"P-perhaps, the ene"

The wind h with your excuse Just quickly search again! Water icians, search underwater too! Even without Kraken, Torpedo Squids could mean trouble!"

The eneicians began their chanting

The one in the center is a jet black pirate ship where the fake Skeleton Archduke is

"There's huge creatures underwater!"

"Is it Kraken?"

"If that's the case, there's at least two of it, there's also presences of countless big monsters in the sea"

The adician's report

Looks like Sonar-type water ic can't find the precise number and types

"N-no way"

The ad to screaonna escape this sea at full speed! Wind ic to increase the ship's speed!"

A wind ives his report as the admiral shouted

"We've discovered e as the fleet in front of us! They're encircling us!"

"N-no way! No way, no way, no way!"

No one is atte to stop the admiral who repeated his speech like a broken record

Everyone who's on board the shipthe same

"--Is it about time for my turn?"

I muttered in voice so low no one could hear as I stared at the ad from his mouth anytime now

Looks like the real un
