A gigantic merchant ship, approximately 40 meters long with a broad hull, was anchored at the edge of the Realm of Pitch Darkness. No cannon ports for defense were visible anywhere on the vessel.
Three tall masts bore black sails, topped with the banner of the Prayer for the Dead.
Besides this ship, two heavily armed pirate strike ships, each about 20 meters long, lay nearby.
However, the condition of these pirate ships could only be described as downright miserable.
These few pirate vessels were surrounded, completely encircled by four warships from the Holy Mother Church.
The Vibrating Stone Cannons on the Holy Mother Church's warships had long ceased their bombardment, as the enemy ships were already crippled.
The masts and lower decks of the two pirate strike ships, designed for attack, had long since been destroyed.
These pirate ships were already under their control.
A Knight in Soft Armor, wielding a Long Saber, stepped onto the deck of one of the pirate ships.
