Chapter 333: Sailing Trip [II]

Splash!

"Wait, was that a dolphin?" Julia pointed into the water as multiple dolphins begins to swim with the yacht as they got into the deeper parts of the sea.

"Yep. Blackfin Dolphins. They are common around here and there. They are quite numerous if a yacht or a boat sails around their areas as they can take advantage of the yacht or boat’s movements to manipulate the fishes that they prey on to come to their direction," the First Prince explained casually.

Elaina, Julia and the twins are currently on the top yacht with Caroline and her son. Curaj, Princess Margaux and the Witch is currently on the bottom deck, currently enjoying the close view of the fishes and the dolphins.

"So they are not just swimming with the yacht because they feel like it?" Elaina was surprised.

"Nope. These dolphins are devious and intelligent creatures. They will take advantage of their terrain and their surroundings to ensure they get to eat. It is just a misconception by some people that these little buggers are doing that to move with I suggest that you guys don’t have any trust with those dolphins. They may act cute but they are brutal fishes. Best to just leave and let them stay as attraction from afar," the First Prince shook his head and sighed.

"Haha, you might think my husband is just a hater of the dolphin but not really. We have some first hand experience of how they are not as friendly as everyone think they are. It does feel like something petty but trust us, its not that," Caroline chuckled.

Elaina nodded and looked at the fish catalogue part of the Almanac. Fishes that are illegal to catch like whales and sharks are already labeled and are automatically updated by the almanac so that Elaina will know that those fishes are not suitable for catching and fishing. They are also categorized that are not catchable, allowing Elaina to identify them easily. And just like what the First Prince is saying, the dolphins are indeed labeled as devious little creatures that are too intelligent for their own good.

"Anyways, what makes you and everyone else decided to have some good time sailing like this? I heard from my sister that you are quite dedicated to your work that even resting is close to impossible to you."

Elaina chuckled as she is indeed guilty about it. Even now, although they are on a sailing trip and was meant for relaxation and stuff, she is thinking of fishing.

"She is not wrong. I do like to work a lot. However, I didn’t plan this trip just because I am getting tired of the work and wanted some solace or away time from any work related stuff. I wanted to have my twins to experience the sea for once and have them get to experience the feeling of sailing in the water. Summer is still a few months later and it will be a while before that arrives so why wait until summer for them to experience the sea? That is one of the things I wanted them to experience at least," she explained as she looked at her twins enjoying the view of the sea and pointing on the dolphins jumping again and again on the water.

"So we have the same idea as well! Zane wanted to see the sea and experience it after reading a book related to the sea. And considering that we have this yacht with us, why not use it to our advantage and just sail and let him experience it for himself. It’s just that the time you requested for a yacht is also the time we plan to take out our son to the sea and cruise around for a while since it will be quite busy during summer. Springtime is a good time to sail around with the yacht as it is not too hot nor too cold for the sea."

Julia seems to agree as well. "Yeah, the heat from the sun is not as intense as I thought it would be. This would be a nightmare if we did this on the summer. Even at home, the heat is unbearable."

Looking up the sky, everything is clear and there is barely any clouds present, making it good weather without any signs that it will rain at all. The heat coming from the sun is just right and not too hot like during summers. Elaina sighed in relief to know that she picked the right date for them to sail in the seas during a fair weather.

"With the fair weather we have right now, underwater will be much clearer than expected and diving would be a good way to explore underwater. Although the kiddos won’t be able to experience this, adults like us can do so. Miss Elaina right? I always call you Miss Farmer since I always forget your name. Anyways, do you want to experience diving underwater and see the treasures of the sea that can only be admired properly if you go diving? My wife is quite good at it and it is one of her hobbies," the First Prince looked at his wife proudly the moment he started to brag a bit.

"Sounds good. May I ask if it is possible to do spearfishing underwater? I plan to go fishing for a bit and then Princess Margaux said that I can possibly borrow a gear to dive so I brought my harpoon gun with me."

Caroline was surprised but she smiled and nodded. "I wasn’t expecting to meet someone else who would share the same interest with me on fishing...but here we are."

"Interest in fishing?" Elaina was not expecting it. She looked at Caroline with a stare of disbelief.

"Ah, everyone, we will park the yacht here in the middle of the ocean. Plenty of fish on this place, and a great place to dive as well. Perhaps you girls should try to talk inside the cabin. The gear should be in there and you guys can continue on the topic. I will prepare the grill to prepare the meat for barbecue."

Elaina was then pulled by Caroline. "Come with me! I will show you the diving gear. We can also talk about fishing on the way!"

Although Elaina was still processing things, it seemed that she had gotten an unexpected comrade for fishing. And what is the better way to get the collection of fish catalog filled? Befriend someone who is an expert in fishing.

Adelaide and Arthur are enjoying the new scenery with Julia. For Adelaide, this is something she has never experienced in her past life. Seeing the sea before her is something that she never expected but one of the welcome ones that she has enjoyed so far. Although she has been adapting well to this new life of hers and having a twin sibling who is a genius in his own right, Adelaide can’t help but slowly enjoy her new life. Perhaps, she should forget everything in the past and start again in this life.

She looked at her twin brother who was enjoying the scene with his new friend Zane and was currently pointing at the fish on the water. She felt calm and happy that her brother was enjoying things that she didn’t get to enjoy in the past. This is why she will be taking advantage of this peace to relax and forget all the troubles she left behind in the past.

But then, Adelaide’s attention suddenly shifted when her twin brother called her.

"Sis! Look!"

Arthur can speak a few words now thanks to her teaching him a few good words to say. He can already chain and form small sentences one by one and although it’s not as good as her way of speaking, for a kid of one year old, he is already advanced enough as children will start chaining and making sentences around two to three years depending on the kid. Her case is special as she has memories of her past life, so learning how to speak is a matter of practicing in her new body and getting the hang of it.

Since Arthur was pointing at something, she turned to look at the direction he was pointing. She thought he was pointing at a jumping dolphin or maybe a swimming dolphin that was close to the surface. However, to her surprise, she spotted something underwater. It is being blurred by something that seems to look like underwater smoke, but because the water is clear, what appears to be a cloud of smoke is blood. And the one with blood is something humanoid. It’s not a regular human. After all, humans don’t possess a tail in replacement to their legs.

"Mermaid!" She exclaimed.

The Witch who heard her words turned to where Adelaide was looking and was surprised to see the floating body of a mermaid. One that looks the same age as Adelaide and Arthur.
