?Chapter 465: Chapter 466: Summoning Chapter 465: Chapter 466: Summoning “The situation is just like this, Fenna, what do you think?”

On the deck of the Homeloss, Duncan spoke to Fenna who was holding a Sea Breath Wood amulet she was carving.

Fenna listened to Duncan recount the problems encountered by the White Oak and the captain’s plans for the future. It took her a long time to process before she finally reacted. She tossed the newly carved amulet into a barrel and looked up, “You mean, that I should vouch for White Oak in my capacity as a saint, and then issue a permit that allows the mutated ship to return to a legal identity as a Judge?”

“It seems feasible procedurally,” Duncan said earnestly, “after all, you truly are a saint of the Storm Goddess—and also the Judge of Prand.”

“But my position as a Judge has been revoked…”

Duncan waved his hand dismissively, “Wasn’t that arranged privately by your pope? Your official public identity hasn’t changed.”

Fenna paused again—the straightforward lady seemed not yet accustomed to Duncan’s way of thinking. “Exploiting loopholes in the rules” was something she had never considered in her many years as a Judge. Instinctively, she felt something wasn’t right, but couldn’t articulate what it was, and could only hesitantly say: “Procedurally… I’m not sure if it’s right, but…”

Duncan interrupted Fenna’s hesitation with a stern look, “White Oak needs to return to a legal status, and the Exiled Fleet needs to re-establish contact with the civilized world. You wouldn’t want us to forever be a shadow looming over the world—the neutralization of the once-threatening Exiled Fleet is a good thing, and as a saint of the Storm Goddess, you should actively push this forward, don’t you think?”

Fenna suddenly became still, her expression solemn as she fell into thought. After some time, she looked up into Duncan’s eyes, “Your tone sounds like when you normally bamboozle Alice.”

“You are not Alice—Alice would’ve believed me after the first sentence.”

Fenna: “…”

“But the principle is the same, White Oak truly needs your help right now,” Duncan continued with composure, “And from a practical standpoint, having an additional controllable and powerful Transcendent exploration ship is not a bad thing for the City-States—certainly better than letting this ship become a wandering shadow in the Endless Sea.”
