I am the Pope in the Western Fantasy World

Viscount Ward walked out from behind him, and the cold light of his sword reflected the sudden change in the black-robed man's expression.

Phil Gray coughed and said, "Excuse me, we just want to find out what happened to the Blacktooth Shark so that we can leave as soon as possible. And you are the one favored by the God of Death. If your skills can help you communicate with the undead..."

The black-robed man's eyes were fierce, but then they became calm again. "Why should I leave? Isn't it better to stay on this ship? The breath of death, so many undead souls, this is simply a holy place for a follower of the God of Death!"

Phil Gray was speechless. He himself was also a follower of the God of Death, so why didn't he feel how good this place was?

"Besides, you are from the Dawn Cult. Why should I help you? Just kill me so that I can see my god as soon as possible." The man in black robe seemed not to care about the sword on his neck. The blade scratched his neck, leaving a blood mark.

Then should he have used his identity as the Blessed of Death to get close to him?

Phil Gray sighed, feeling helpless seeing him being so stubborn.

Viscount Ward took back the sword and smiled, "Indeed, I shouldn't threaten a follower of the god of death with death."

"Hmph." The man in black wiped the blood from his neck, licked it with the tip of his tongue, and then left.

"I think something is wrong with him. You should ask someone to keep an eye on him." Phil Gray whispered to Viscount Ward.

"of course."

"Phil, I found this." Eli hurried to Phil Gray's side and took out a tattered book from his arms.

"What is this?" Phil Gray took it and found that it was a diary, and the owner of the diary was actually called Don Dolly!

Is that the man Captain Jeremy was talking about?

Phil Gray found a stool and sat down. He said to Eli, "I went to the captain's room just now. After I mentioned the Blacktooth Shark, the captain was possessed by Jeremy's ghost. He then mentioned the owner of the diary - Tang!"

Eli nodded, "I found this journal in the kitchen."

"That's right. Jeremy asked him to cook for the passengers. He should be the ship's cook. Have you read it? What's written in the diary?"

Phil Gray asked impatiently.

Eli paused, "I read it, but I didn't understand it, literally. This diary is written in ancient characters."

"Ancient characters?" Phil Gray then realized that the name was indeed not written in the modern language. However, he could understand all characters, so he did not pay much attention to it.

"Maybe he doesn't want other people on the ship to read his diary. It must record some secrets." Phil Gray's eyes lit up and he gently opened it.

"You actually understand ancient characters? Isn't that something only the old guys in the Light of Wisdom understand?" Viscount Ward leaned to the side and said with a chuckle.

"Yeah." Phil Gray responded casually, looking at the contents of the diary attentively.

"February 3021, 2 of the New Divine Calendar, sunny, calm sea.

Today, I saw the beautiful Miss Daisy. She praised the food I cooked for being delicious. The feeling of being exhausted miraculously disappeared and I just felt happy. Perhaps, the Goddess of Harvest gave us divine power so that delicious food can be enjoyed by our loved ones.

March 3021, 3 of the New Divine Calendar, it was cloudy and the sea was rough.

It has been raining for a long time and the wind and waves have not stopped. This is the first rain since the arrival of spring. The God of Weather and the Goddess of the Sea have really chosen a good day. I was going to go ashore to attend Miss Daisy's birthday party, but now I can't go, alas!

But even if there was no storm, could I leave the boat?

April 3021, 4 of the New Divine Calendar, the weather was sunny and the sea was calm.

I haven't seen Miss Daisy for a long time. I wonder if she will still take the Blacktooth Shark? However, I hope she will never take this ship again. The captain will take action sooner or later! Beautiful Miss Daisy, I hope you don't fall into his clutches! "

……

Phil Gray read out slowly. This man called Tang seemed to be a young man. He would write a diary on the 2nd of every month, expressing his secret love for a former passenger on the ship named Miss Daisy.

For nearly two years after that, he continued to cook on the ship, and his diary recorded some trivial matters on the ship, as well as the captain's harsh criticism and beatings against him.

Things changed a year ago, when the nobles of the Kingdom of Sealand planned an ocean voyage and hired the then famous Black Tooth Shark ship, with Captain Jeremy in charge of their journey.

"I really didn't expect that the nobles of Lanxi would be so stupid as to choose jackals to protect their flocks. After Jeremy has done this, he will never have to drift on the sea again, right? Poor Miss Daisy actually joined this journey with her brother!

"I want to protect her, and those other nobles who are seeking death should pay the price for their choices! Goddess of Harvest, please grant me more divine power. I want to treat my beautiful Miss Daisy with more delicious food!"

Phil Gray flipped through a few more pages and read aloud. In the past year, Don's diary had obviously increased, with a record almost every day.

Eli pretended to think, "It sounds like Captain Jeremy wants to attack these noble passengers on the Blacktooth Shark?"

"From what Don said, it seems to be the case, but what will Jeremy do? Where is the destination of this ship?"

Phil Gray continued reading, trying to find new clues.

"My lord? We found some bones in the room, they seem... they seem to be human bones." A dry voice suddenly came from behind. Phil Gray turned around and found a middle-aged man talking to Viscount Ward.

The middle-aged man was wearing a simple blue short coat, had a hunched back and looked somewhat timid.

"Really?" Viscount Ward thought for a moment, then turned his tall and thin body towards the guest room. "Take me there. You guys continue to study the diary here, and I'll look for other clues."

Phil Gray nodded and lowered his head to continue reading his diary.

"January 3023, 1, New Calendar. Sunny, calm sea.

Today they have been on board for almost two weeks, and they are getting closer and closer to the captain's destination. I am really worried, and I think I have to tell Miss Daisy as soon as possible."

Should he tell her about the captain's conspiracy? But if he only told her, how could the cook Tang take Miss Daisy out of the vast ocean?

Phil Gray was filled with questions.
