109 Into The Atlantic Rim II : Sacred Coral Border Patrol

I already gave Qitar the warning she needed, but we were holding until after these group of people had made the first move. Currently Sky was in her bow form behind my waist, but the vibrating sword on my back was making everything on my body terribly uncomfortable. I moved forwards walking towards the uninvited guests on my ship, I watched as the person with the spear turned and whispered to the guy by his side. And come to think of it, that guy by the side looks to be the one in charge, but why was he on the sidelines.

"We're a border patrol unit of sacred Coral country, we received word that a wanted criminal has stowed away on this ship. We have to search it if you don't mind."

I felt my heart skip a beat before calming it down. These were just police men doing their jobs, there's no harm done. Except of course for the fact that I do have a wanted stowaway on board my ship, and I wouldn't give him up without a fight, which means me and these guys are definitely going to butt heads, especially that dudes with the spear. Plus why were they wearing helmets for fuck sakes! It's weird talking to silver helmet with my face reflected on it.

"My name is captain Seven, and I welcome you aboard the Acheron. I understand that you're all doing your jobs, but who gave you such a tip? We've not had any extensive contact with anyone since we left Patmos."

Quite few schemes were in play here; given how big the bloody airship above our head is, I wanted to get the fuck away from them without having to initiate a battle, not that I don't think we won't be able to win(not really), but there was another legendary weapon in play, and I don't want that guy to go crazy and make a play for Thalasio Spathi.

So I paid attention to quite a few details, first of all has to do with which stretch of the ocean we were currently sailing on. I don't know what it's called, however I know it's right on the fringe and edge of the law's influence. Not that you won't find cops like these sacred coral border patrol, the things is they would definitely have loose if not outright no morals at all. So they can be bribed or in really stupid and extreme cases, threatened.

These guys don't know me, they just received a tip, which if I should hazard a guess came from that crazy goblin-dwarf that asked me to go look for Zareth in the first place. Now I'm hoping these guys listen or at least watch the news, I might no longer be amongst the chosen but I should be a bit famous by now, after all I blew up a city and slaughtered millions by accident when I...…shit! These guys might actually be here for me.

Given that I haven't been arrested, yet. I hope they think I have someone with a lot of clout behind me, which should make them unwilling to make any trouble but I doubt that would work. None of these guys were gamers, but right now there's no difference between an NPC and a gamer, so it would be unwise the underestimate the greed for a legendary weapon, and not just any weapon, one that actually belonged to a god.

"You're captain seven? Interesting. You would have to come with us to our airship to answer some few questions, then naturally you can be on your way, however we still have to search your ship before that happens." The guy with the spear said to me.

I get this feeling that he is smiling behind that silver helmet of his, it made my knuckles itch. But none the less this guy is too far gone into the well of greed(I think). There's no way he's going to let me go, but more than anything else, he knows the advantage I have with my sword, especially given that we're currently surrounded by water for hundreds if not millions of kilometers. We both have a piece for the god of the seas trident, having me follow them back up to their airship eliminates the threat of me using the sword against them, plus without my allies around I should be much more easier to deal with.

He was smart, but to be honest going up their airship would be much more easier for me. I rather not have a battle on my ship when their own friends are on an airship that could blow us up if they so much as noticed something wrong. The Acheron is a fast ship, but we can't beat the speed for flight, the best case scenario would be to go up there and wreak havoc, and no one does that better than me. However I can't let them into the ship, my main quests says I have to protect and help every member of the elemental dragon race, and a dragon god's avatar would probably be ranked really high on that list.

"Do you have a warrant to search the ship?" Mack asked as he came up beside me looking at the border patrol dude with a ferocious look on his face.

"I don't believe we do elf, we have full jurisdiction to carry out such operations within this stretch of the ocean. It's our job to make sure everything is safe and crime is at an all time low here." The guy with the spear said as he shifted his head to Mack.

"I'm afraid that's not good enough. We're on a mission from the elven prime minister to deliver a race of Nereids to a temple in the Atlantic rim. This ship and her captain are under her employment, this is her seal of authority here, and quite frankly you're not high ranked enough to conduct a search on a ship under her employ. We have her on call 24/7 since this is a very important mission, we can call her and have her communicate with your superiors so that we can solve this problem without you doing something that would cause a diplomatic situation." Mack said with a hard look on his face whilst simultaneously showing a glowing silver crest with an arrow stabbing into a rose.

They looked shocked…..not really though since I can't see their face. But based on their silent posture and the way they looked at each other, they couldn't make a move on us even if they wanted to. I didn't even know Mack had that, but with Lerriandelei's influence, sailing these seas has become a lot more easier than expected.

"Very well then, we won't search the ship, however the captain still has to. Come with us to answer some questions and fill an official report." The spear dude said to me.

"Buy I just said..."

"I know what you said elf!" the spear dude said to Mack with no small amount of animosity in his voice. I guess he doesn't really like loosing.

"Yes we can search the ship, but your captain really has to come up and fill a report, this is standard procedure and it's not something we can skip, even for the Elvin prime minister. So please just make our job easier and come with us." He said whilst giving me a look(which I can't see at all).

"Sure no problem at all, isn't it just fill a report. I can do that and be back down in ten minutes."

"But captain!" Qitar called out to me.

"Don't worry Qitar, as soon as I'm on that airship fire up the Ion pulse cannon and aim it at the airship. If I'm not back down in 30 minutes, blow it up." I said to her with a smile.

The moment I mentioned the Ion pulse canon a shudder went through every single member of the Sacred coral border patrol in front of me. Seems like they know just what sort for damage and danger the cannon can cause, it's a weapon designed for space warfare, and it was placed on a ship like this. Definitely this was a course of action they had to think twice about.

But even then I'm sure the guy with the spear won't hesitate, he would probably be under the impression that once he wrestle the sea sword from my cold dead hands, he would be able to use the power of the seas to completely turn the situation around and sink the Acheron. Unfortunately for this fool, I'm not your typical captain.

"Well then officers, let's go fill that report shall we." I said to them with a smile on my face that seemed a little bit too happy. The spear dude grunted at me and turned around heading towards the floating platform that brought them down from their airship. It was the suspected leader that opened his mouth and said to me.

"Follow us captain Seven."

"Sure officers *CHUKLE* with pleasure."
