“I understand you reprimanding me if I caused damage to the ship but since the whales, the dolphins, and I were far enough from the Amelia, the only danger was the ship leaving me and with my power, the ship could hardly leave me behind,” Anton said, still assuming a very serious countenance.

“Again, we apologize, Sir Sunder. When the report arrived, it said that a mage jumped into the ocean and we thought that we had to rescue someone. You don’t need to talk to our leader or Captain Robertson. We would reprimand the one who reported.”

“You don’t need to do that. It was also my fault that I didn’t warn anyone of my intentions so let's just forget about this situation and I apologize as well. I respect you both for trying to save a mage who had fallen off the ship and as recompense, let me give you these two enchanted items,” Anton gave two statues enchanted with the Air Conditioner enchantment and provided an explanation of what they were and how to turn them on and how to rechanged them.

He wanted to keep a good relationship with the ship’s mages and the two enchanted items were a low-cost bribe and a form of advertisement as well in case his family wanted to continue selling enchanted items.

Anton saw that the two old mages were happy that he didn’t want to pursue what happened and were also very happy with the magic items. He knew that they would probably dismantle the items to study the spell attached to it but he was not worried. His magic belonged to a different magic system and if they managed to reverse engineer it and copy it, he would only feel respect towards a person like that.

Anton and his father said their goodbyes to the two old wizards and he saw that they probably were not even aware that they were trying to leave since the two old men were focused on the magic items so Anton and his father just shrugged and left.

Anders didn’t talk while they were walking back to the suite and when they returned there, everyone was asking him questions about what happened.

“When I was on the deck earlier, I saw a pod of whales and dolphins. The whales were so huge but looked very calm and kind and the dolphins who were following the whales for protection were so cute so I flew to them and played with them for hours. Oh! I remember that one of the pink dolphins gave me something before I left,” Anton said then he retrieved the big clam that the dolphin gave him from his inventory.

The clam was as big as his palm and when Anton opened it, they saw that it contained a huge pink pearl and the pearly was glowing a soft luminous pink glow.

Everyone gasped when they saw the huge pearl and the beautiful ocean gemstone took everyone’s breath away.

“It’s the legendary ocean pink pearl! There were only two known ocean pink pearls and based on what I’ve heard, the one in your possession was much larger than those! You can sell that gemstone for millions of coins! It’s said that the glow of the pearl can bring a restful sleep and beautiful dream to the one who sleeps near it,” Antonia exclaimed.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

“It’s truly beautiful! I will not sell it since it’s a gift from my friends from the ocean,” Anton said softly then kept the pearl in his inventory. He planned to clean the clam that was holding the pearl since it was very pretty as well.

“The two old wizards wanted to reprimand me since I caused a scene but everything’s good now. I bribed them with a couple of air conditioner enchanted items,” Anton continued.

“Brother can I look at the pearl again,” Anna asked so Anton retrieved the clam that was holding the pearl. He gave the pearl to his sister so she could look at it then gave the clam to Colin to be cleaned and polished and told the man to be careful in cleaning the clam since he planned to make it the pearl’s holder.

The ladies gathered to examine the pearl and everyone was looking at the gemstone with glowing eyes. Admittedly, any woman who saw the huge pink pearl would be enamored as well. The soft glow brought the gemstone a mysterious and calm feeling and Anton could believe Antonia’s claim that the pearl could bring sweet dreams.

“The dolphins gave you that pearl just because you played with them?” Walter asked.

“Probably it’s because I gave them a massive amount of mana water. Animals liked mana water. Our two horses Maide and Bailey had been drinking mana water for a long time and they became extremely intelligent. I think that they will be evolving into spirit animals soon so that means that the effect of mana water on animals is huge.”

“It’s truly a pity that your mana water can only last for an hour,” Phillip said.

“Anton let’s go to my room and talk,” Anton’s father suddenly said. Anna snickered while everyone looked at different things except at him.

“Are you going to give him a thrashing, father?” Anna asked jokingly and she laughed. Of course, she was just joking but everyone joined her laughter.

“Why did you think that flying off to play with sea animals is a good thing?” Anders said to his son softly.

“Father, they looked really adorable, and wanted to look at them up close. I noticed that the ship’s speed was slow enough that even if the whales and animals were not swimming with the ship side by side and the ship left us far behind, I would have been able to catch up to the ship without any problem.”

“The problem is you didn’t think of the possible consequences that would affect all of us. Even though the problem with the ship’s mages was resolved because of your bribe, the fact they tried to flex their strength and bully you meant that what you did was an action that had possible consequences. I know that you’re becoming powerful and rich enough that you can disregard some of the consequences that ordinary people would find dangerous but keep in mind that you have a family and friends with you. I’m not limiting you since as a powerful person, the world is your oyster but please think carefully before you think of doing anything, okay.”

“Yes, father. I apologize.”

Anton’s father smiled at him and they both went outside the room. Soon Harun arrived with the Kraken tentacle meat that Anton gave Phillip to give Harun so the sailor could have it cooked by one of the ship’s chefs.

Even though they had eaten the Kraken meat several times, as Anton expected, they were not getting tired of it. The ability of the meat to absorb the taste of the specific dish where it was included but still retain its own unique magical taste kept the meat truly the best in the world in Anton’s opinion since he had not eaten anything else that could rival it. Maybe some other cow or pig-based monster would rival it but since he had not encountered them yet, the Kraken meat firmly remained his number one.

He was just happy that he still had tons of it in his inventory. Anton was a bit worried about the meat running out so he was hoping that another Kraken attack their ship again and even though he was warned not to join any battle, he would probably try his best to steal another tentacle.
