"Legendary-grade monster?" Broken repeated, still processing Ronan's words.
"Yeah... haha," Ronan replied with a chuckle. "It was both a nightmare and one of the most incredible things we've ever experienced."
He leaned on the railing as he recounted the event. "It was massive... something like a sea serpent or maybe a dragon. I'm not even sure. It just rose out of the ocean, this enormous thing that could've swallowed our entire ship in one bite."
"Just hearing that sounds terrifying," Broken said.
Ronan nodded. "We were lucky, though. The monster didn't actually attack us. I don't know... it felt like it was just warning us. Like it was telling us to turn back and abandon our expedition."
As Ronan spoke, he briefly outlined the journey they'd been on at the time. He and his crew often sought out uncharted waters, challenging themselves to explore areas that no one else in Yunatea had dared venture into.
The world of Yunatea was vast-so vast that even after years of exploration, entire regions of the ocean remained mysterious and untouched. There could be undiscovered islands teeming with hidden creatures, or ancient monsters lurking beneath the waves, waiting for an unsuspecting ship to stumble upon them.
Ronan continued, his tone lighter now. "One time, we found this island where every monster was level 250 or higher. That's part of why our levels are as high as they are now. We've gotten used to fighting some of the strongest monsters out there just to survive."
"That explains a lot," Broken murmured.
"Here, King," Ronan said, pulling out his map. "Let me show you where we ran into that Legendary-grade monster."
He pointed to a specific spot on the map, a seemingly random point far from any known landmass.
Broken leaned in, studying the location. "This... is way out in the middle of nowhere," he said.
"Exactly," Ronan replied. "There's no telling what else is out there. That's what makes it so exciting and so dangerous."
There was something about the location Ronan pointed to on the map that caught Broken's attention. His eyes narrowed as he examined the spot more carefully. It was the exact location SexyGrill had estimated as their next destination for the quest-the place where the Floating Island, the Vensalor Kingdom, was said to be hidden.
Broken froze for a moment, letting the pieces of information click together in his mind. Could there be a connection between the floating island and the Legendary-grade monster Ronan had encountered?
If they were planning to head to that location again, Broken realized, they'd have to be prepared for the possibility of facing that creature head-on.
Excitement surged through the arena as a team stepped onto the stage, the name "Destroyer" displayed boldly on the monitors overhead. The crowd erupted into cheers the moment they
recognized the players.
"London!"
"Heejin! Oh my god, she's so beautiful in person!"
"That's Melliandra! Damn, she looks exactly like her character in the game."
"King!"
"And... Charmelyn! Wait, what's her real name again? I didn't know she was this gorgeous in
real life!"
The noise grew louder, but amidst the excitement, murmurs of confusion began to ripple
through the audience.
"Wait... why are there only five of them on stage?"
"Shouldn't there be six?"
"Where's Broken? Isn't he supposed to be part of Team Destroyer?"
"Damn it, where is Broken? They're not seriously going to be beaten in the opening match,
are they?"
"They can't! Their opponents this round include two Divine Champions on the same team!"
"Yeah... the strongest team in the US."
