"That's the sea, Disciple."

Floriana Sabina explained to him.

"Wow!"

Veia stood up and looked at the sea in front of them in amazement. This was her first time seeing it.

"Master Floriana, is this also your first time seeing the sea?"

Rant Valo turned his head to her and asked.

"Yes. It looked better in person than in the pictures I've seen."

Floriana Sabina nodded her head. As she was locked inside her sect, she didn't have the chance to head towards the sea. Even when she escaped, she wasn't able to reach this place. That's because she mostly roamed around the land.

"This is the most water I've seen in my life."

Rant Valo said as his mouth formed an 'O' as he stared at the sea. They rapidly approached it and before long, they were right on top of it.

"It would be the most you would ever see, Disciple."

Floriana Sabina said to Rant Valo with a smirk.

"Master and Grandmaster, can we take a swim?"

Veia asked them with her eyes shining in excitement. She wanted to try swimming in the ocean. After all, she might not have the chance in the future as they would head back to the center of the continent.

"Hm? You want to swim in this emergency situation?"

Floriana Sabina raised an eyebrow at Veia.

"I-I… Of course not!"

Veia shook her hands in a fluster. She forgot that they were heading for the Demon Continent in a rush.

"Well…"

Floriana Sabina held her chin in a ponder.

"I don't think delaying for a day is that bad."

She continued.

"Yay!"

Veia raised her arms in joy.

As for Rant Valo, he smiled. He also wanted to try swimming in the sea, but he knew that they were in a rush. It was nice that it was happening.

"Alright. I'm slowing down."

Floriana Sabina informed them. The boat then slowed down before it started to descend to the beach.

Bam

A light bump and they were landed on the beach. Veia immediately jumped out of the boat and stepped on the beach sand.

"Ah! It's hot!"

Veia jumped back into the boat in reflex. The sand had been under the sun for too long, and they were blazing hot.

"This is beach sand?"

Rant Valo scooped a handful of the sand under the boat.

"Yes. It looks and feel nice, right?"

Floriana Sabina said to him as she also took a scoop of the sand.

"Yes. It does. I wonder if we can take some home with us."

Rant Valo nodded his head and said to her wonderingly.

"We can, Disciple. But what are you gonna do with it?"

Floriana Sabina asked Rant Valo with confusion on her face.

"It'll be a souvenir for this trip."

Rant Valo replied to her.

"I see. Then let's take a lot."

Floriana Sabina nodded her head. Suddenly, a shovel appeared in her hands.

"W-What?"

Rant Valo looked at her in incredulity. He didn't expect her to actually take out a shovel.

"What are you looking at me for like an idiot? Didn't you say that you wanted to take the sand as your souvenir?"

Floriana Sabina frowned seeing the face Rant Valo was making at her.

"That's true, but isn't that going overboard?"

Rant Valo asked her with confusion on his face.

"What do you mean? There is a long beach all over the Lilith Continent. We can take as much as we want from one side."

Floriana Sabina said to him matter-of-factly.

"But it's bad for the environment, Master Floriana."

Rant Valo said to her. He was a villager, and it resulted in him being an advocate for environmental protection. After all, they didn't have any harvest in their farms when they didn't take care of their land.

"Hmph! Alright. We'll take just one sack."

Floriana Sabina snorted in annoyance. She gave the shovel to Rant Valo and an empty sack appeared in her hands.

"Do your job, Disciple."

Floriana Sabina said to Rant Valo with her chin raised. She then stepped out of the boat and walked towards the sea.

"G-Grandmaster! I can't go out! The sand is hot!"

Veia shouted to Floriana Sabina. She wanted to play in the sand, but it was really hot for her vampire skin to take. It was like she was being cooked under the hot by stepping on it.

"Wait for the night."

Floriana Sabina turned around and said to her with a smile.

"A-Ah… Grandmaster is so mean…"

Veia's cheeks twitched.

"It's your fault, Master! If you didn't anger her then she would have helped me!"

Veia turned to Rant Valo and pouted.

"What? How did it turn to be my fault?"

Rant Valo looked at her in confusion. She was blaming him for something he didn't do.

"Ahhhhh! Master, I'll eat you now!"

Veia screamed in frustration as she held her head. She then jumped on Rant Valo and embraced him tightly.

"V-Veia!"

Rant Valo escaped from her embrace using his cultivation. He then jumped out of the boat and looked at her smugly.

"See if you can catch me."

Rant Valo said to her teasingly before he walked towards Floriana Sabina calmly. It was as if he was telling Veia that he didn't feel threatened by her.

"I'll show you!"

Veia gritted her teeth in annoyance. A layer of Darkness Mana covered her soles like a sock. She then jumped out of the boat and stepped on the sand.

"Hm? It worked!"

Veia herself was surprised. She didn't really think that it would work. It was just something she thought of randomly.

"Master~!"

Veia ran towards Rant Valo happily.

"H-Huh!?"

Rant Valo turned his head to her in shock. He noticed the black sock-like thing on her feet, and he immediately understood.

"That's unfair, Veia!"

Rant Valo shouted before he ran away from her. Of course, they weren't really using their cultivations. If they had, then they would have skipped across the ocean long ago.
