Chapter 35: Leisure Time (2)
The blue sky, the seabirds flying overhead from time to time, the slightly salty sea breeze, everything made people so refreshing. Unlike watching the sea on land, when you were truly in the middle of the sea, you would truly feel your own insignificance. In front of this endless blue sea, even the Titan Poseidon, the largest steel giant in human history, seemed so insignificant.
"Big Brother, look, a big fish!" Cherie, who was watching the sea on the deck with Ulysses, suddenly yelled, excited as if she had discovered some novel thing.
"Where! Where is it!" Ulysses was also a little curious when he heard Cherie say this.
"Look, there, it's behind our ship. What a big fish! Cherie has never seen such a big fish before!" Cherie pointed her little finger to the back of the ship.
Ulysses looked in the direction Cherie was pointing, and as expected, there was a big fish more than six meters in length swimming there. The fish was light gray colored, with a pointed fin on its back, and its head as sharp as an arrow. It was hunting for some small fishes following the boat.
Ulysses was no stranger to the appearance of this fish. The fishermen of Taji City would catch several such big fish every year. The name of this fish was the great white shark. It was a very ferocious carnivorous fish. The result of ordinary boats encountering it was almost always destruction. Only the large hunting boats were capable of catching this ferocious carnivorous fish. However, the sharp fin on the back of this fish called the great white shark was very delicious, and it was called the best of seafood. So as long as someone catches a great white shark, some people would spend a high price to buy the pointed wing. As far as Ulysses knew, the sharp fins of this six-meter-long great white shark could be sold for at least hundreds of gold coins.
Because Titan Poseidon threw a lot of food scraps into the sea every day, there were many fishes vying for the leftovers after Titan Poseidon. The great white shark probably wanted to catch the large school of fish behind the ship. Although it could be said to be a nightmare for ordinary fishing boats, in front of the giant steel ship Titan Poseidon, it was no different from the small fishes who eat food waste behind the ship.
"Ah! It's gone! Big brother, do you know what kind of fish it is?" As if full, the great white shark left behind the Titan Poseidon, disappointing Cherie for a while.
"The name of that kind of fish is the Great White Shark. The shark fin you have eaten comes from its back!" Ulysses explained to Cherie.
"Ah! Shark fin refers to the pointed fin on the fish like that! Cherie likes to eat shark fin the most." Cherie was surprised.
"Okay, the great white shark has already swum away, let's check out other places on this deck!" Ulysses wanted to take Cherie to finish the tour of the Titan Poseidon sooner, so that he wouldn't have to be with her all the time.
"Okay! Big brother! Then let us go to the bow." Ulysses' words immediately received Cherie's approval, and she immediately took his hand and walked towards the bow.
Ulysses and Cherie stood on the bow of Titan Poseidon, where they could clearly see the endless sea ahead and feel the rushing sea breeze.
"It's great to be able to board this Titan Poseidon!" Ulysses sighed sincerely. Only by standing here and watching the waves separated by Titan Poseidon could one truly feel that they had conquered the sea. Only this steel giant Titan Poseidon could give people such a strong sense of conquest. This is the romance of men!
"Yes! Cherie also thinks it's great to be able to board this Titan Poseidon, because I met my big brother here." Cherie's words made Ulysses feel dumbfounded. It seemed that boys and girls had a big deviation in the understanding of the word "romance".
"By the way, big brother, can you help me! I want to see the sea from a higher place!" Cherie's little face blushed for some reason.
"Of course, where are we going, to the top of the ship?" Ulysses agreed without hesitation.
"No, I don't have to go anywhere, I just want to watch it here, so, can you lift me up?" Cherie's face became redder and red, and her voice was as low as a mosquito's voice when she spoke.
"Uh... okay." Ulysses hesitated a little, and still agreed to Cherie's request. When he thought about it, Cherie was just a child, and there was nothing wrong with lifting her up. If Rasputin asked him to lift her, then he would have to really think about the consequences.
‘Huh? Why am I suddenly thinking of Rasputin?' Ulysses lifted Cherie's small body while wondering. Under the strength of his level five warrior, Cherie's body was as light as a feather, and he lifted her above his head effortlessly.
"Yeah! I can see everything!" Cherie, who was lifted by Ulysses, spread out her arms excitedly, and her whole body formed a cross shape, shouting loudly to the sea. Seeing her like that, it was as if she was about to embrace the sea in her arms. (TN: Author dude is copying titanic. LOL, I have a feeling that this ship is about to sink.)
Under the blue sky, in his hands, a blonde girl was shouting to the sea with her arms spread open. Her long hair fluttering in the air brushed past his face from time to time, bringing a unique fragrance of the girl's body; In his eyes, the girl with long golden hair bathed in the golden sunlight seemed to no longer belong to a human being, but a golden angel favored by the sunlight. Looking at the golden little angel in his hand, Ulysses was stunned for a while.
"Cherie, you are so beautiful!" Looking at the sunny darling in his hand, Ulysses gave a heartfelt compliment.
"Ah! Big brother, what are you talking about!" Cherie, whose hearing was disturbed by the sound of the sea breeze, did not hear Ulysses' words clearly.
"It's nothing, it's time to get down. It's dangerous to keep doing this. If I accidentally drop you, you will fall into the sea." Ulysses smiled and put Cherie down.
"It's okay, Cherie believes that even if Cherie falls into the sea, Big Brother will definitely come to save Cherie, right?" Cherie took Ulysses' hand again, as if she didn't want to let it go.
"Of course, I will definitely save you." Ulysses smiled.
"Then Big Brother, you make a pinky swear. Promise Cherie that if Cherie accidentally falls into the sea, Big Brother will definitely come and rescue me." Cherie said with a serious face, and stretched out her finger to Ulysses.
"I promised you that if you accidentally fell into the sea. I will definitely save you." Ulysses also stretched out his right little finger and hooked Cherie's little finger.
"Whoever breaks the promise will swallow a thousand needles." Ulysses and Cherie chanted the agreed spell at the same time.
