"We're finally here!" Several people jumped and skipped on the soft sand.
This is the Colorful Island in the Southern Islands, on the north side of the Berry Kingdom, close to the east. It is famous for the colorful fruits produced on the island.
Because the pandan fruit is so colorful, with red, yellow, and green fruits clustered together, it's quite attractive. Tourists from other places often come here to see it and spend their vacations. And because it's located in the northern part of the Austral Islands, it's considered the gateway and is relatively close to the mainland, so it attracts a lot of tourists.
The 'Great Eastern', which had crossed a long stretch of sea, stopped here for repairs and replenishment, then headed to the southern side of the archipelago, made a circle, and headed to New Wilga, then slowly returned to the Verdant Empire along the coastline.
The climate on the island is much milder and more comfortable than that on the mainland. When they left Yubere, the weather had become hot, but now it is still comfortable here.
"Thank you very much for the performance, ladies. This is a gift from me on behalf of the Earl. Please accept it." The butler in a burgundy suit bowed and asked several attendants to bring a few plates with small boxes with black velvet and gold edges on them.
After opening the box, she could see the pearl necklace inside. These pearls were large and full, white with a hint of rose pink, similar to the rose gold color the girl had seen in her previous life.
Even though they didn't know much about jewelry, they knew that it was worth a lot of money. Just when they were hesitating, the butler spoke again.
"Please accept this. It's just a small token of my appreciation. The revenue from your performances on the boat alone will far exceed this."
After the housekeeper's repeated persuasion, the girls felt reluctant to refuse others, so they each accepted a box of jewelry.
"This is a letter of recommendation and coat of arms with the earl's seal. If you have the opportunity to come to Cangcui in the future, you can use this to travel freely. Most nobles will still give each other face and will not embarrass you."
The butler sent another waiter over with a red velvet tray containing an envelope and a coat of arms.
"If your group has the opportunity to come to Nanjiao County in the future, please contact me. I will definitely prepare the best stage and venue for you."
...
"Then I wish you all a pleasant journey."
Afterwards, the butler and his entourage returned to the ship. After staying for half a day, the huge ship will head to the next big city, which is Biliu Bay, a large seaport city in the central part of the Southern Islands.
The island is rocky and surrounded by water. It is a water city with a unique terrain.
In fact, at the end of the journey, the butler had guessed that these young ladies might not be an opera troupe at all, but just came to perform on the ship on a whim.
But what does it matter? These people's looks and strength are extremely extraordinary, so why bother to delve too deeply into their motives? The butler who mingled in the upper class knew these nobles all too well. Living in luxury, they had all sorts of quirks, and this was quite normal.
It was a long-standing tradition for nobles to travel around disguised as painters and poets. Some, more radically, would work while traveling, or even become slaves for others, simply for the novelty of the experience.
Especially the last performance a few days ago, when Vimiya sat at the stern and sang in the moonlight, the wind and waves on the sea stopped, and dolphins jumped on the water to accompany her.
That magnificent and awe-inspiring scene was something even these Green Nobles would rarely witness in their lifetimes. It also brought the atmosphere of the voyage to a climax, perfectly fulfilling the plan previously laid out by Earl Blue Bull. This way, the steward had a great deal of spare cash; the jewelry he had given away was merely a drop in the bucket, worth just over two thousand gold coins.

"We've finally arrived at our destination. Shall we find a place to stay first?" Bumansa suggested happily as she looked at the white clouds and the beach under the blue sky.
"Yeah." Ye Ling nodded vigorously, and then began to look around the island.
On the other side, Alena, Loran Hill, and Lettice were talking with Triton and others.
"What are your plans next?" Loran Hill asked, looking at the three people in front of him and the little girl hiding behind Triton.
"Maybe we should just stay in the Southern Islands. Maybe it will be more stable here." Thinking that he still had to worry about the enemies of the Firula Chamber of Commerce in Yubere, Triton decided not to go back for the time being. He didn't have any relatives there anyway.
"Me too. Will I find a job in a small opera house here, or open my own tavern?" Su Lisi was wearing a purple dress and a sun hat on her head.
"I guess I have to change my career. It seems like there is no need for coachmen here, haha." Allen laughed heartily.
"How about sailing? I can recommend you to be a sailor on my father's ship." Aliena said with interest.
"Thank you, Miss Alena." Allen did not refuse and simply agreed. He was a person who went with the flow and would do whatever work was available.
"Where is little Luna?" Loran Hill bent down and looked at the little girl.
"I'm with Brother Triton." She said softly. Ever since Triton rescued her from the fire that night, she regarded Triton as her only support. Sometimes even Sulis was a little jealous of little Luna's closeness to and trust in Triton.
"Why don't we go to Coconut Breeze Island? It's located in the west of the Little Berry Kingdom. It's not too prosperous, nor too deserted. It's very suitable for living, and there are also several good schools." Loran Hill recalled what the old butler Ceres had said in the letter.
Coconut Breeze Island is very large, with a population of nearly 600,000. It is one of the top 10 most famous islands in the Hinaberry Kingdom.
"Thank you for your suggestion, Miss Luo Lan. For now, I will get familiar with the environment here and go back later."
Triton wasn't in a rush to set off; he wanted to help his two friends settle down first. It could be said that both of them had taken unnecessary risks on this adventurous trip because of him. Now that he had come to his senses, he felt deeply remorseful.
"Goodbye, then."
Just as Alena, Loran Hill finished their conversation with Triton and Allen, Lettice on the other side also finished her conversation with Sulis and waved goodbye.
The temporarily formed opera troupe disbanded here, although it was only there for two weeks. However, after the nobles on the ship went back to publicize it, the "Flower of Dawn" opera troupe became a mysterious and beautiful legend for a long time.
Eventually, some even compiled the story into poetry, describing a legendary opera troupe of nine girls with different looks and styles. Some said they were princesses from a certain country, some said they were visitors from the East, some said they were mermaids from the bottom of the sea, and some said they were witches playing with the human world.
Legends abounded, with varying opinions, and some later questioned its existence. However, the thousands of people on board unanimously confirmed the existence of such a mysterious opera troupe, leaving one amazed and captivated by the story.
