Novel & Cerita Poirot: Problem At Sea

It feels like a stolen jewel I want to hide in my pocket. The door opens. The peace shatters instantly. Ciro fills the doorway. He is wearing his working face—a mask of granite and suppressed violence. "We have a problem," Ciro rumbles. Aureliano marks his page and sets the book down. The laziness vanishes. The predator snaps back into focus. "What kind of problem?" Aureliano asks. "The Port," Ciro says. "Pier 4." I sigh. A long, heavy exhale that pushes against my ribs.

Bolts now wreathed in fire, flew straight towards the Kolysian vessels settings its passengers, both machine and sapient on fire. But with that brief moment of superiority, their barriers were now broken and their position could now be seen. The activity on each boat had heightened despite Drent’s work. Skelemek machine men creaked and sputtered as they turned to face their new charge. The pirate’s emotions turned from fear to outrage as they fired their staeves and rods at the entrenched warehouse. They were far from range of course. Most, if not all of the pirate group were returning to Orobar Hill. As they charged for the docks, Drent continued his work, pelting away at whatever Kolysian

The start or new battle came unexpected. Elifis fallowing Conrad remain silence as they look at the port covered in mist. They knew that when they enter the port, everything will be over... There's no holding back neither... The port had been taken by the pirates has they to the reason it was covered in mist... Surely they can think of the mist but they are not good with handling the mist... Magician can but they didn't bring any wind mage... Conrad look through the side from side observing any signs of abnormality even though the mist is just a clear white smokes.

He summoned a tsunami to push back their enemies and set back their pursuit. But before his tsunami could hit its target, it shrunk and dissolved. There was only one explanation for this. From the current distance, his eyes couldn’t pierce the silhouette of their pursuers standing on deck but it was clear from the full bamboo-sail battens that they had a junco ship. It was a two-master flying a black flag. “Bad news, guys!” he shouted to Temujin and Aki. “The pirates have also got a blue Slayer on board!”

There seemed to be a pair of evil eyes in the center of the enormous tornado, which stared fixedly at Horatio. The seawater that had been sucked up into the air suddenly shot in Horatio's direction like a rain of arrows. It was too late for him to dodge. In an instant, he was surrounded by Caine's relentless attack. "Mr. Swanson… Mr. Swanson actually lost?" Hamish whispered in disbelief. The seawater that had shot toward Horatio was practically indestructible. Even the speedboat beneath Horatio's feet was peppered with holes. At the sight of this, even Lars was stunned.

I lifted my eyes to my aide. “Say that again.” He swallowed hard, barely able to look at me. “The coast patrol just reported it. The explosion happened on the nearshore route to Emerald Isle. They’ve confirmed…” His voice shook. “They’ve confirmed it was the white yacht Mrs. Moretti took this morning.” The crystal tumbler at my side hit the floor with a violent crash. Glass shattered everywhere. Sofia flinched so hard her face went white, and the child jolted awake and burst into tears.

There was a ship slowly approaching the coast. A few members of the Sea Dragon Sect were on board, shaking as they maneuvered the boat. A head hung from the bow. It was Jotun's head. 'F*ck! Who dares to kill my men?' Forsythe was enraged. He asked one of the ship's crew members, "Jared, what had happened? How did Jotun die?" The pirate named Jared looked petrified as he stuttered. "Main Leader, it was—" Before Jared could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a cold voice. "It was me!" Immediately, a beautiful figure appeared above the flagpole on the bow. It was Morticia.

The same boy I raised aboard my ship. “Why are you late?” Sebastian demanded. Angst written over his handsome features. “I’m ne’er late!” He shouted back. Making fists. “Ye know well me wouldna be, were there no’ a good reason!” What reason could there possibly be? “Do enlighten me!” Bast fumed. “Pirates don’t dare bother my flag, so what the devil is your ‘good’ reason?” “We had a for’nigh’ of sea storms for starts. Go’ washed inta the Peril.”

“Fair.” The phone buzzed again. Pal — 4:58 a.m. Tell your old man to get to the marina. Now. A photo followed. Grainy, real, awful. A slab of twisted hull beached on the rocks like a dead whale. Paint scoured. Rust bleeding. Four letters visible under the scrape. SIRE— His stomach emptied itself into his throat. He shoved the phone at Rachel. She flinched like she’d touched a live wire. “Oh my God. Con.”

Liora's POV Amid torrents of violent waves our boat rocks back and forth. Everyone clings on the sides of the hull with both of their hands to prevent being thrown off. Others struggle scooping the sea water gushing into the boat, back into the sea. "We should let down ropes to help them!" I plead with the others. “Are you suicidal? Their weight would drag us down!” Tedmold shouts over the chaos. “Or she’s just in love with those mean hosts,” Violette mocks.
