The rest of the journey was anything but smooth sailing.
They encountered two more storms, each fiercer than the last. The storms weren't the only problem either. The ship was also attacked by sea creatures in clear weather.
Sometimes, it was a single massive creature they had to team up to defeat, while other times, it was a swarm of tiny creatures they had to face in a drawn-out battle.
There were some other headache-inducing incidents as well.
There was this one time when Evangeline wanted to walk on the sea's surface. She could do so by using the Ruler of Waves spell and solidifying the water's surface beneath her feet.
But as she was playing on the water's surface, a large tentacle suddenly emerged from the depths and wrapped around her leg. And so, she was dragged into the water as she screamed. It was a good thing Adrian had reacted in time and cut off the tentacle using the third level of his infusion art.
Standing by the deck, Adrian let out a tired sigh.
