While Leo's group, Axel's group, and Ehtelyn's group were gathering the materials and supplies, teacher Homer quickly went to dig a deep and wide hole in the sand, specifically around 30 square meters, to act as the platform to build the boat.

The hole will be filled up with water later on after they finished with the boat, hence making the boat slowly float upwards.

Also, teacher Homer's had done it in such a way so that they will no longer need to push the boat to the sea by hand or a Magic spell, and instead, just let the water and wind do the work.

After finishing with the hole, teacher Homer then began to shape the wood that Leo and his group had finish gathering into the boat's frame by using a Magic spell called Bending, a Support Magic spell that allows the Mage to bend any materials in their will.

Finally done with the boat's wooden frame, teacher Homer then used the stones and a few iron ores that Axel and his group had gathered as he used it to add further support to the wooden frame by using a Magic spell called Molding, a Support Magic spell that allows the Mage to mold solid material into any shape in their will.

After finally finishing the boat's frame, it was finally time to add the interior and exterior of the boat.

Leo ordered his Earth Elemental to cut the woods in lengthwise before he passed it to teacher Homer for him to furnish the wood, then attached it to the boat's frame, and finally molding some iron ore into a nail to connect the furnished wood to the boat's frame.

They repeated the steps until the exterior of the boat was finally finished.

Now it was time for the interior.

The same as before, Leo ordered his Earth Elemental again to cut the woods in lengthwise before teacher Homer furnished them and then added them to the interior.

Right after, the boat finally took the shape that looked similar to those of 3 decker boats. The boat has some rooms on the 2nd floor and on the 1st floor was a storeroom for the food supplies and some extra materials for repairing purposes. The 3rd floor, which is the topmost part of the boat where they can see the ocean, has the boat's steering wheel and the two sail, specifically the mainsail and headsail that will control the direction of where the boat should go.

Since there was no fabric, they instead gathered together a bunch of leaves and connected it to make the sail of the boat.

Having only sails wouldn't really guarantee the speed of the boat, so they also decided to add some rows of wooden paddles at the both sides of the boat which was going to be controlled using a Magic spell by teacher Homer.

Lastly, everyone began to cover the boat with branches of leaves to somewhat disguise the boat into something similar to a tree. Magical Beast Sharks were already extremely familiar with boats, so they would definitely come and destroy it the moment they noticed the boat sailing in their territory. So, in order to fix that problem, they decided to cover the entire boat, specifically the top and bottom, both left and right, and the front and back with branches of leaves, so that when the boat sails into the ocean, it will only look similar to a floating tree. Though doing that doesn't really solve the problem, but at least they were able to minimize some risk.

After 1 hour's worth of time, they finally finished the entire boat. If this was back on Earth, then building a three-decker working boat that is 20 meters long, 10 meters wide, and 15 meters tall within 1 hour would definitely be treated as a world record, especially since there were only 10 people who built it, which also only has 1 adult and the rest were all students.

Magic really makes things convenient. Even a boat could be finished within the span of 1 hour.

"The only remaining problem here is can we really break the Magical seal?" Leo said.

"Let's first drive the boat to the side of the Magical seal." Teacher Homer replied. Just looking at the Magical seal wouldn't be able to take them somewhere, since he can't analyze the Magical seal in their current location right now. Once he can touch the Magical seal though, he would then be able to analyze the Magic spell's structure and hence he might be able to make a hole that will allow them to exit. Though he doesn't really know exactly what's the cost of making a hole in a Magical seal created by a Mage in the level of a Galaxy.

Everyone nodded their heads before they quickly boarded the boat.

Because almost everything was covered with branches of leaves, it was expected already that their sight would be hindered. However, they had already thought about that and hence assigned some location in the boat with fewer branches of leaves to cover, specifically the middle of the left and right part of the boat, the upper bow and the stern, the mainsail and headsail, and the boat's steering wheel. This location was specifically chosen because it gives them the best view around the boat.

*Whooosh!

With the help of the wind and the rowing paddles, the boat finally began sailing in the ocean.

Unexpected to everyone though, the boat they had quickly made actually functioned totally fine. In fact, they can even deem the boat as flawless, that is, if only the speed of the boat wasn't very slow. Though they were still moving, it was so slow that they were only able to arrive beside the Magical seal after 10 minutes, although the distance was only 100 meters, which is basically equivalent to 1 minute equals to 10 meters distance only.

"This speed would really become a huge problem later on!" Axel can't help but comment.

"What can you expect? We are only using leaves here, not fabric, so there are pretty much holes everywhere in the sail where the wind can just simply go through." Aiden replied. Because the sail was made out of leaves instead of fabric, the wind that will push the boat towards a specific direction pretty much only amounts to 50%, that is even the best assumption he had thought.

"Teacher Homer, what do you propose to fix this problem?" Axel turned to look at teacher Homer.

"That is indeed a problem... But don't worry, I think I have a solution for that..." Teacher Homer answered before he suddenly began taking out some clothes in his storage ring, "This was the last resort I had thought about..."

"Clothes are indeed fabric, I almost forgot about that!" Everyone nodded their heads joyously.

Unfortunately, not everyone was privileged or rich enough to be given or to have enough money to buy a storage ring for storage purposes. So, only Axel, Murgan, Aiden, and Ehtelyn were able to contribute some clothes, though Ehtelyn only gave a few saying that she can't bear to destroy such beautiful clothes.

Girls would always be girls, no matter the situation.

Teacher Homer then began sewing the clothes together using a stone he had molded into a needle and some strings from his storage ring. Afterwards, he removed the sail made out of leaves before he replaced them with the sail made out of clothes and covering it with some branches of leaves afterwards. Magical Beast Sharks can still see on the surface of the ocean, so to be extremely safe, they still covered the sail with branches of leaves.

"Before we finally set sail, let me crack an enough space in this Magical seal first..." Teacher Homer said as he closed his eyes and put his hand on the Magical seal.

After approximately around 10 minutes or a bit more, teacher Homer suddenly opened his eyes as he exclaimed, "Bingo!"

*Whoooosh!

A part of the Magical seal opened up enough for the boat to pass through. Teacher Homer then quickly controls the boat to drive forward before the Magical seal closes back once again.

To be honest, teacher Homer was actually only able to open that crack for a few minutes because the Magic power difference between him and Lu Ming wasn't something he could easily transcend. In fact, just to crack open a space wide and long enough for the boat to pass through, he actually needed to consume almost half of his energy.

"Hahaha, finally!" Teacher Homer can't help exclaiming in relief.

Leaving the Magical seal, they finally entered the seemingly endless Shark Cemetery.

Right in front of them was the road that will lead them to an unknown path.

Either they would die, which would then mean everyone in the Floating Mountain would also die and Lu Ming's plan becoming successful.

Or they would succeed, and hence everyone would be able to live, and Lu Ming's plan would be stopped for good.

In all of their opinion, the chances of failing were actually as high as 90% and the chances of succeeding were a mere 10%. That is just how dangerous this path was going to be.

However, despite knowing all of that, they still didn't hesitate to continue.

Teacher Homer looked at everyone with the eyes of a person that wants to know whether one of them wanted to back out now or if they still want to stay and continue in the journey.

Teacher Homer only stared at them. No sound came out of his mouth, at all. Nevertheless, everyone was still able to understand what teacher Homer really wanted to say.

"It's too late to back out now, we are already outside of the Magical seal!" Leo said with a chuckle. Even if someone really wanted to go back, they would not be able to do so that easily anymore, since the Magical seal has already recovered and hence they can only return if teacher Homer cracks the Magical seal twice, one to go inside and the second was to return outside, which would obviously consume 3/4 of teacher Homer's total energy.

"I can still op- "Teacher Homer wanted to say something but he was immediately interrupted by Axel.

"Yeah... I guess we are stuck together in this boat then, right?" Axel said as he looked at the others.

"Hahaha, not a problem for me!" Murgan nodded his head.

"Silver Mage Academy better gives me a good compensation after this!" Aiden said with a smile.

"I wonder, what kind of potions could we find in the Blue Fin Kingdom, I'm really curious!" Matthew voiced out his agreement in a different way.

"Likewise! What kind of unique materials do they use to make their weapons? I'm so excited!" David took out a journal from his pocket as he began writing something.

"No need to ask us. The moment we returned after gathering the food supply, we already decided to sacrifice our lives for this!" Ehtelyn replied.

"Yep!" Melthy added.

"I will not regret anything!" Tiffany followed.

To be honest, no one could have easily noticed this, but Leo's main purpose of giving the girls the task to look for food was actually to give the 3 girls the choice to decide between going on this journey or hide somewhere else for safety.

Not because he wanted to protect the girls, it simply because base on his experience with girls, they always cause trouble, especially in a really dangerous situation, specifically between life and death situation.

Because he can't afford his life being put into danger just because of some stupid things, he gave the girls two choices. If they want to follow, then they better lay down the groundwork for this operation. And if they don't, then they better hide somewhere safe in Floating Mountain.

It was already a fact that teacher Homer, Axel, Murgan, Aiden, and even Ehtelyn herself have storage rings with them, which obviously has some foods stored inside, right?

So why would they need to look for some more food?

In order to have some extra food for the journey in case they ran out of food supplies?

That might indeed be the case if this was an ordinary journey, but this was clearly a journey between life and death.

So the girls were able to quickly realized that Leo was giving them a choice of walking in this path or not, which they bravely choose the first option and returned back with some food supplies, even though they don't really need to.

"It's my greatest honor as a teacher to have students as brave as you bunch!" Teacher Homer said as he bowed his head a little. He then fixed himself as he continued, "Now then, let's begin the journey!"
