Chapter 633 Row Bully Boys Row [Part 1]

“By the way, where is this ship headed, Princess?” Ethan asked, making Ramona pout.

“Just call me Ramona, Ethan,” Ramona replied, ignoring Ethan’s question. “Stop calling me Princess.”

“I can’t do that,” Ethan shook his head. “If I called you Ramona in public, people might think it rude, or think that I’m not showing you respect. Also, it might lower your standing as a candidate to become the next ruler of the Magdar Kingdom.”

Princess Ramona frowned, but she knew that the young man was right. However, she decided to make him compromise by giving a suggestion.

“Then, just call me Ramona when it’s just you and Joanne,” Princess Ramona proposed. “Okay?”

Ethan nodded. “Understood, Ramona.”

The young Princess then smiled sweetly before giving Ethan a hug.

Hugging him calmed her down, and fortunately, the young man didn't push her away, which made her very happy.

'This is pure bliss,' Princess Ramona thought, while praying that she wasn't having a dream.

Because if she was, she wanted to stay asleep for a little while longer.

Joanne looked at this scene with disdain because she still didn’t know why the brother that she didn’t plan to recognize was very popular.

“Now can you tell me where this ship is headed?” Ethan inquired.

“We’re headed to the Island of the Kings,” Princess Ramona answered. “All Candidates must go there in order to make a pledge to serve the Kingdom. My brothers are probably already there since I was the last to leave the Capital.”

“Are they still sending people to assassinate you?” Ethan narrowed his eyes.

“I’m not sure,” Princess Ramona replied. “Father has sent me some of his trusted guards, who protect my residence. So far, there have not been any attacks that I am aware of. But, there might have been some skirmishes in places that I cannot see.”

The princess’ body subconsciously trembled because her relationship with her brothers had been strained as of late.

However, after Ethan threatened to drown the Magdar Kingdom with the power of the Tide Bringer, they started to hesitate whether it would be wise to antagonize such a powerful existence.

Ethan’s and Lily’s return to the future had been kept a tightly guarded secret by the Allied Tribes, who currently resided in the City of Zentris.

Everyone knew that the Tidebringer was the Guardian of the Lands of Alastor, so as long as they kept silent, no one would dare try to declare war on the Allied Tribes ever again.

Even the Orcs, Goblins, and other Monsters no longer bothered to antagonize them, especially after what happened in the battle with the Necromancer.

They only told Princess Ramona that the Tidebringer and his wife had already left because Ethan asked them to do so.

Princess Ramona was Lily’s first disciple, so she got preferential treatment from the Allied Tribes.

“I guess we came at the right time.” Ethan patted the Princess’ head. “As long as I am here, your brothers will not dare to even touch a strand of your hair.”

“Mmm.” Princess Ramona hummed as she continued to hug Ethan.

Right now, she had too many enemies, and she didn’t know who to trust.

She knew that she could trust her father, but she also understood that he couldn’t give her favorable treatment because it would just make her an eyesore to the other Princes’ who were eyeing the throne.

Even the guards, who were in the ship, were people that were assigned to her by her father.

However, she didn’t trust any of them.

The only ones she trusted with her life were Ethan and Lily, who didn’t care for the riches, influence, or power that they would gain if they were to help her sit on the throne of the Magdar Kingdom.

This was why they were special in her eyes.

They were her teachers, her close friends and, to a certain extent, the only people that she had opened her heart to.

She even confessed her feelings to Ethan, hoping that he and Lily would remain in the Lands of Alastor, so she could live with him forever.

But, that wasn’t meant to happen.

However, due to Fate’s design, she was once again reunited with her first love and with him by her side, she felt safe and secure.

“Ramona?” Ethan asked in concern when he noticed that the young lady in his arms had stopped talking and moving.

It was then when he heard her soft sleeper breaths, which informed him that the princess had fallen asleep.

She hadn’t been sleeping well as of late because every small sound she heard in the middle of the night would wake her up, thinking that she was under attack.

Lily had told her how to use her magic properly, so that she could defend herself.

But, at the end of the day, she was just a twelve-year-old girl, who just wanted to live in peace.

Unfortunately for her, she was blessed with strong magical powers.

This made her a threat to her brothers, who wished for her to be eliminated, so that they would have one less rival for the throne of the Magdar Kingdom.

Ethan gently laid the Princess on the bed before looking outside of the window of her cabin.

Since they were sailing in the sea, he could sense anything within his Domain.

He gazed at the dozens of black dots in the horizon, who were headed in their direction at a rapid pace.

All of them were ships, and from the looks of it, they were targeting the ship where Princess Ramona was currently at.

Suddenly, he heard a knocking sound coming from the door of the cabin.

“Princess! Enemy ships are approaching us from the east,” a Guard shouted anxiously. “Do not leave your room at all costs! We will deal with them without fail!”

After saying those words, only the sound of hurried footsteps reached Ethan’s ears.

He had placed Princess Ramona inside a protective bubble, which had a soundproof ability.

This meant that she couldn’t hear anything that was happening outside the bubble, allowing her to sleep peacefully.

“Joanne, want to vent your frustration on some people who wish to kill us?” Ethan asked his sister, who was sitting on a chair with her eyes closed.

“I don’t want to waste my time on small fries,” Joanne replied. “If you wish to deal with them, you can deal with them yourself.”

After losing to Ethan during the celebration party, Joanne asked around to get a better understanding of the person who suddenly barged into her peaceful life.

It was then when she was informed that the young man was able to manipulate any body of water, and his specialty was controlling the sea.

Since that was the case, she wanted to observe how Ethan fought for real.

During the party, it was the Ancient Wendigo and the Fairies who fought for him.

She wasn’t able to glimpse a fraction of Ethan’s power, which was why she planned to sit this one out, so that she would know her “enemy” better.

Before following Princess Ramona to her room, Joanne had silently dropped a small doll on the deck, who used the commotion to climb the ship’s tallest mast.

Ethan’s sister could see through the eyes of her dolls, which was also the reason why she had closed her eyes, so that she could get a better view of the young man’s abilities.

But, Ethan didn’t do anything.

He allowed the ships, who seemed to be Pirate Ships, to come closer until they were only hundreds of meters away from their ship.

The enemy forces immediately surrounded Princess’ Ramona’s ship and made a declaration.

“If you wish to live, surrender the Princess to us peacefully! Resist and all of you will be killed down to the last man!”

Ethan smiled faintly after hearing the ultimatum that the leader of the Pirates gave.

He still didn’t make a move because he was waiting to see if there were double agents, or traitors among the guards that were protecting the princess.

The young man understood that the Princess had been living a very precarious lifestyle because she didn’t know who she could trust, and which of them were working for her brothers as spies.

Just as he expected, a banging sound was heard on the door.

“Come out, Princess! The Pirates are demanding that you surrender, so that everyone in this ship will be spared!” an anxious voice came from the other side of the door. “We want to live, so please, won’t you surrender to them peacefully? I’m sure that they will not harm you.”

Ethan wanted to laugh at the man’s desperate attempt to get on Princess Ramona’s good side.

The mere fact that they were trying to harm a twelve-year-old girl, who just wished to be left alone, made him wish to start a massacre.

However, he endured. This was not the right time to strike.

Also, even if all the Pirates were to work together, the young man wasn’t afraid.

All of them were fighting in his Domain, and the majority of the Pirates were just ordinary people.

Just a single thought from him and the sea would answer his call.

It was a very simple matter for him to flip over the Pirate Ships, which would make the Pirates panic.

But, he didn’t do that.

He was still waiting to see how the situation would unfold.

Only when he had flushed out the traitors within Ramona’s guards, would he deal with the Pirates, who had no idea who they were dealing with.

Joanne, who had no idea what her brother was thinking, remained seated.

Although she didn’t like him, she recognized his abilities, which meant that she wasn’t worried about what was going to happen next.

Besides, even if Ethan didn’t make a move, she was confident that, with her powers, she would be able to send the Pirates packing, and ensure they would never bother them again.
