Vice Admiral Iceberg

Abner had just led Mr. Gaston and his party halfway up the mountain when a transparent Starlight Longbridge appeared. He stopped and looked up. A woman in a classical black robe covered with symbols and magical markings had stepped onto the bridge and was strolling through the air.

An Astrological Instrument and a short scepter hung at her waist. She looked like a warlock from a legend come to life.

Admiral of Stars Cattleya... Abner recognized her by that distinctive entrance. He looked closely, saw no one following the Pirate Admiral, and turned his gaze away.

Behind him, Miss Gwen watched the two female pirates make their striking entrances with envy. She wished she could do the same, but her modest strength could not support that dream.

The Giant Descendant's Notebook she had obtained from the Fourth Epoch contained only the Potion formulas for Warrior and Pugilist. She had dared to accept Mr. Gaston's commission and come to this pirate-filled island in hopes of obtaining the Weapon Master Potion formula and its ingredients.

"I wonder when I'll be able to explore dangerous places across the Five Seas without a care, like Vice Admiral Iceberg..." Miss Gwen sighed to herself.

While still in midair, Cattleya sensed someone probing her with an ability similar to Eyes of Mystery Prying. She frowned, investigated briefly, and spotted Abner.

The Polymath's Analysis? Is he trying to learn Starlight Bridge by watching me? Cattleya recognized Abner. He was close to her crew member, and she had even commissioned an investigation into him before that operation in Backlund. He had left an impression.

But what's a detective doing at the Pirate Gathering? Wait... The elderly man behind him looks like a well-known Appraiser. I see. He must have been hired to protect him.
