Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea-Chapter 108 Captain Mad John (2)

?A pirate ship is like their home. And as a Pirate, anyone entering your ship when you are not around is like someone entering and breaking into your home.

To put it simply, if Captain Crimson eye has one of his fellow crewmen, he suddenly can't enter his ship and start making demands without meeting the Captain himself.

"If you are here to accompany Prince Wyatt back, then you shouldn't have any reasons not to wait until his returns before you come to take her away since she will be in your ship throughout that time" Mad John questioned. His voice got sharper and stricter the more he spoke.

Though he might be currently assuming the role of a Captain and had initially given up Clara because of his hate for her, but if the Captain comes back and finds out that Clara was on his ship before he let her go to the ship that escorted them across the Cryptic Sea... He might not be happy.

He might not even be pleased!

And knowing his Captain, that doesn't sound like a good idea now that he thought things out very well.

Meanwhile, Marcus could only scratch his head as he mused.

"Well, I heard that Prince Wyatt tried to kill her before, so it's only fair that we retrieve her first for her safety" He replied.

"True" Mad John nodded because he had heard about it from his fellow crewmen. And he was also present when his Captain killed Knight Camille, so he never doubted the information.

"But knowing my Captain, he would probably immediately glide over to your ship the moment he finds out that Clara is in your ship" He added.

"And who is going to tell him?" Lark, the tall sturdy man asked while he made sure that Clara was still in his grasp.

In response, Mad John smiled.

His earrings glistened under the afternoon sun as he pursed his lips together. With a wry smile, he responded "I hope that you aren't asking me to lie to my Captain".

"No, we are not. We are only asking you to keep this a secret because of Captain Clara's safety" Great spoke, making his presence known in the conversation.

"IS THIS WHAT I HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO?!" Clara declared. Her eyes snapped wide open and she stared at all five men in anger.

In an instant, she raised her body into the air, shooting up and twisting her body mid-air in a swift fluid motion "Bamm!!". Her leg connected with the skull of the man who held and sent him stumbling back as he clutched his head in pain.

She landed on her feet and then jumped backwards until she was far away from arm's reach and looked at them with bloodshot eyes.

"Since I have now been reduced to someone whose life is decided by some bunch of no-name pirates.." She cranked her neck from side to side, pulled her hands up, and assumed a fighting stance "Come at me however you wish".

The four Crimson Blackeye pirates rose a brow.

"And let me make this clear, I am not leaving this ship without meeting Prince Wyatt" She expressed. "Whether or not I die by his hands is none of your concern or that of Captain Crimson's eye" She didn't know why Captain Crimson eye was trying his hardest to keep her safe.

She didn't think that he was one of her father's close associates, if not, she would have heard of him long ago, especially since he is the Captain of one of the nine seas like her father.

Mad John smiled. No, the only one still smiling was him!

"As you can see, Miss Clara is also in agreement with waiting until Prince Wyatt returns" Mad John said before he turned to look at Clara questionably "I am right Miss Clara?".

Clara glared at him. After he had given her out like a sack of dirt to be thrown away, his shameless query irritated her.

"Yes" Nonetheless, She answered.

She stared at Mad John, and to be honest, he was beginning to remind her of someone.

The four Crimson Blackeye pirates stood still with contemplative looks on their faces.

"Is that really what you have to say?" Basal, the Captain of the 29th fleet replied. His expression turned serious as a dangerous atmosphere wrapped around him.

Apart from the orders given to him and the 28th fleet, Basal was given another order. And that was to either antagonize Prince Wyatt into attacking them or….

Kill Captain Clara no matter what!

And his reward for doing so?

His fleet will be promoted to the 20th fleet and will enjoy far more privileges than their current one. They were even higher rewards if they accomplished both.

Though he doesn't know what Sir Jerry wants to achieve, but as a pawn beneath the ladder, the only thing he could do is climb higher until he reaches the top. And the only way to do that is with the aid of those already there.

"Yes. That is all I ..we have to say"

And not even their words will deter him.

"Captain Marcus" Basal said.

"Yes" Marcus stared at his fellow Captain with an equally unpleasant expression. Instinctively, he knew what would happen next, and he didn't like it.

"You han - -"

? A gust of magical energy suddenly swept through the air, sending shivers down the spine of everyone present.

Silence! Everyone stood mute and still, and you could almost hear a pin drop.

"I can't concentrate on arranging the whole ship's enchantments with the noises coming from up here".

Mad John immediately snapped his head to the door and saw that it was Mr Alson speaking. "Didn't I tell you that I can hear your loud voices even from the ship's lowest level?" Mr Alson questioned.

"Yes, I am sorry about that. But you see, we currently have visitors".

Mr Alson eyed the familiar faces of the pirates but, he could not remember who they were.

"Maybe I have repaired their ships before' He thought.

Stopping himself from thinking too much about them, he replied "Well, wrap it up fast. Dismantling and repairing enchantments needs a high amount of concentration, and to avoid any mistakes, I don't need noise" 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

He turned back and began walking towards the door. Whatever was happening here was non of his business.

"I don't think that would be possible Mr Alson" Mad John's words made him pause and turn his head with a frown on his face.

"Why?" He asked.

…....…

"Because they are here to cause problems and forcefully take away my Captain's guest" I replied while grinning inwardly.

There was a strange atmosphere that surrounded the men in front of me. An atmosphere that could only belong to an ascendant, which was something arched into my body, that I could never forget.

I was worried because I felt that the pirates in front of me were ascendants, so it was a good thing that Mr Alson was present.

After all, to fight an ascendant, you need an ascendant. If not, both I and Clara will be nothing but sticks beneath their fingers.

However, even if Mr Alson was an ascendant, I could tell from his temperant, that he was not even to bother entangling himself with someone else's issues.

But, after discussing with him the whole night as I led him to every corner of the ship, I understood the kind of person he was and knew how to force him into our entanglement.

"And how does that concern me?" He asked.

The first method?

"There are here to kill us and everyone on this ship?"

Take acting lessons from Captain Prince Wyatt!

Mr Alson frowned. His gaze flickered from the Crimson Blackeye pirates to Clara, before he turned his attention back to me.

"And if we are dead, I am not sure that the Captain will pay you for your services because how would he ride a ship, even if it is fixed without his crew" I continued. "How do you think he will feel when he comes back to see the dead body of his second-in-command on a ship he left for repairs?".

The Second?

"And I don't still see how that concerns me. I am here to repair this ship, and not be your bodyguard" Mr Alson replied.o

"Yes, you are right. But you see if I die, this ship will explode and burn itself to cinders".

Be as charismatic as Captain Prince Wyatt!

Mr Alson's frown deepened. This time, there was even a contemplating glint in his eyes.

"He is lying" One of the Pirates retorted. From his eyes, I could see the fear deep within them. And from the way, the pirate avoided his gaze while speaking directly at him, told me all I needed to know.

That Mr Alson was a formidable ascendant!!

Of course, I had my guesses, since the only people capable of fixing enchantments and runes are those at the 'Mage rank', however, this confirms it.

"I don't know about this ship exploding, but we are only here for that woman over there, and we promise not to touch anybody else" He added before he pointed his hands at Clara who was now staring at me with an astounded gaze.
