Chapter 431 - Pirates

Daedalus like the idea of being a pirate, Andromeda on the other hand, did not. So coming to a compromise Daedalus decided to make a small but luxurious boat and lure pirates to attack him. Before doing that Daedalus decided to try and find a city or a town to learn about the continent, it wasn't like Andromeda told him to or anything.

It had been a week since they had arrived on the new continent. Luck had been up at the start with Daedalus finding a nice ore vein of a new material a bit stronger than regular magic steel. After that however nothing much happened, Daedalus hadn't been able to find a town, city or even a small village. If it hadn't been for the strict programming of the map he would have made it reveal the location of a city near them.

Not minding any of that however was Andromeda, she had taken up knitting as another art to spend time on. Daedalus could only sigh and continue looking for a town.

Returning from an excursion into the forests nearby Daedalus found a new boat parked in the cave. Curious Daedalus walked into the house to find a group of tough looking men huddled in a corner with an angry Andromeda standing over them hitting them with knitting tools.

Shuddering Daedalus asked "Okay, what happened?"

One of the men immediately yelped saying "Please, oh god please, we didn't know. We didn't mean anything by it let us leave please."

Sighing and rolling his eyes he turned to Andromeda who was still giving the men red marks from her knitting tools, and said "Andromeda, could you tell me what happened."

Huffing Andromeda turned and said "These idiots seem to have been watching you come and go for the past week. They had gotten the bright idea to steal everything from our home while you where gone. Furthermore, the destroyed my knitting project and one of my tools."

Nodding in understanding Daedalus said "I'll make you new tools and a dungeon better than to keep them in the house anyways."

The men hearing Daedalus whimpered and one fainted before hearing him say "You brought this on yourselves, if you hadn't destroyed the project she was working on we would have probably robbed you and sent you on your way boat and all."

As Daedalus was talking a man walked in behind him and yelled "What's taking so goddamn long!"

As he finished shouting he saw Daedalus, then his men huddled in a corner being beaten with a knitting tool by Andromeda. Snorting the man said "Come on, are you lot seriously that week you can't deal with some children!?"

The man's way of speaking bothered Daedalus, and didn't want to risk him saying something to further infuriate Andromeda, so he knocked the man out. Andromeda smiled at that and said "While making the dungeon go ahead and add a small room for, equipment and a small table."

Daedalus shuddered as he nodded and cast a silent look of pity towards the cowering men.
