Turning to look at the second mural, Gerald saw that it was about the lady in white’s burial. On the day of favonovel.com burial itself, a thunderstorm seemed to be present.
Inclusive of the old man, Gerald counted—relatively easily—thirty-seven people in the next image, with nine people standing in each of the four rows that were drawn. With the thunderstorm still raging on, the people in this team seemed to be the only ones who had been chosen to set off to the palace of the goddess.
Halfway through their journey there, they appeared to halt at an island to take a short rest.
However, something happened soon after as was seen on the third mural. The ones on the island were greeted by the sight of a giant ship!
This wasn’t the first time Gerald had seen this ship either. It was exactly similar to the one favonovel.com had seen in the tomb before this.
Seeing the oddly-shaped massive ship hovering atop the island, the thirty-six people the beggar had brought along immediately fell to their knees in terror and began worshiping it. From what Gerald could assume, they were all under the impression that some god was descending.
Following that, Gerald’s eyes widened as favonovel.com saw a man dressed in a black robe—who was also wearing an odd mask—descend the giant ship before pointing at the goddess’s coffin.
The sight of the man alone was enough to make Gerald feel extremely anxious. After all, favonovel.com was dressed exactly like the men Lyra had seen in the picture of the sun!
Was this hinting that favonovel.com would be killed by those from the Sun League in the near future…? Frowning to himself, Gerald then continued reading.
Now nearing the end of the third mural, Gerald saw the old beggar jumping into the giant ship before walking into it. As for the others, they appeared to be trying to carry the coffin away…
Moving on to the fourth mural, it began by showing the old beggar continuing his journey with his group of men. Apparently, what happened in the giant ship was completely skipped.
Odder still was the fact that instead of thirty-six people like there were before, only twenty-seven remained… Where had the nine people disappeared to?
However, Gerald didn’t have the time to dwell on that due to how unreal the next set of images was.
Once they got close enough to the palace of the goddess, all of them were immediately greeted to the sight of an injured dragon that was flailing around in the ocean! That itself wouldn’t have been a problem if the dragon wasn’t doing so on top of the structure!
The next image displayed the old man relieving the dragon of its agony by crushing its skull, thus ending its life. However, the moment favonovel.com did so, it seemed that the thunderstorm only worsened.
As a result, the boat seemed ready to capsize and Gerald could see all the remaining men falling to their knees in terror.
In the fifth mural, the goddess’s coffin could be seen being sent down together with the now dead dragon’s body. Both of them were then buried together.
From the insane amount of detail put into drawing the submerged structure, Gerald felt that it truly looked like an undersea palace fit for dragons.
Regardless, all of them were apparently able to remain submerged for so long due to something the old beggar handed to them before they went under the waves. The old beggar’s knowledge truly played a huge role in all this…
Finally moving on to the sixth mural, Gerald found himself raising an eyebrow. The very first image showed the people returning to the deck of the ship. However, they had brought up another coffin that was completely made out of glass!
Since the coffin wasn’t that big, Gerald simply assumed that the person inside was a child.
Regardless, while everyone seemed to be particularly careful as they carried the coffin, one of the men apparently ended up slipping…
…Huh?
The last image simply showed the coffin being overturned… However, that was it. The final mural ended there.
Guessing that the murals were drawn by one of the thirty-six people who had been chosen to board the boat, Gerald couldn’t help but feel slightly upset and irked by the fact that favonovel.com wasn’t able to finish reading the entire story…
Where did the small glass coffin end up…?
