Was that a boat?
Whose boat would put out to sea at a time like this?
"They didn't even check the weather!"
"Were a few fish worth their lives?"
The Verdant Green Maiden frowned.
Waves towered over the sea. In a storm like this, she could not save them, however much she wanted to. Standing on a reef, she could only watch as the waves smashed the boat and overturned it in the blue-black water. The people aboard were unlikely to survive.
"...Let's go back."
The Verdant Green Maiden sighed and turned to Liu Yong.
There was nothing she could do.
With the wind this strong, going out to sea was out of the question.
Liu Yong nodded, and they made their way home through the pouring rain.
The Mad Wind had come quickly and left just as quickly. By the next day, it was gone, leaving devastation behind.
Each household began clearing up its belongings.
"Lady Shao Dian, what exactly is this Mad Wind?"
"Could a monster from the sea really have come ashore? What else could cause something so terrifying?"
Liu Yong looked at the Verdant Green Maiden and voiced the question that had been troubling him.
"..."
"A monster?"
The Verdant Green Maiden raised an eyebrow at Liu Yong.
"You've read books, and you still ask a question like that?"
Liu Yong gave an awkward smile. "I've read books, but I've never been to the seaside. Isn't that what everyone here says?"
The Verdant Green Maiden sighed.
"It's hard to explain how this wind works."
"In short..."
"It isn't a monster. It's a kind of weather phenomenon that forms over the sea."
Even if she mentioned tropical cyclones and initial disturbances, Liu Yong would not really understand.
Of course, the Verdant Green Maiden did not fully understand
