Above the surface…
Grace stood near the edge of the deck, golden eyes fixed on the dark sea below with a deeply worried expression.
Just a short while ago, the neck that Garrick had been holding had suddenly vanished into black mist right in his grip.
Without a word of explanation, Garrick had immediately turned and jumped into the sea after Jake.
Now the water remained still and dark, giving no sign of what was happening beneath.
Grace's hands tightened into fists at her sides, her massive breasts rising and falling with her quickened breathing as she continued to stare downward, unable to do anything but wait.
Then—
SPLASH!
Something exploded out from the water with tremendous force, sending a spray of seawater high into the air.
Grace's golden eyes widened in shock.
Activating her Far Sight skill, her vision sharpened instantly, allowing her to clearly make out the figures that had burst from the surface.
It was Garrick… and a severed black torso?
