Mysterious Painting 4: Black Sea Creature

Oh... You really are a strong adventurer, aren't you? I don't think I can boast about my own heroic exploits in front of you anymore. Those pirates won't dare show up in these parts anytime soon, all thanks to you! Haha! I sure do know how to pick my adventurers, don't I? So, are you going to hop to your next adventure now that your job here is done? If not, I was thinking of asking you if you could do us a favor. Would you mind? It's nothing much. I just thought that it might be an easy task for you. The delegation coming in from Nampo have been delayed by some dark sea creatures, it seems.

Black sea creatures and pirates are in different leagues.

Seems like the trade goods will arrive safe and sound from now on. So this was the reason why the value of trade items had taken a dive recently!
