Chapter 52 I Am Not A Fairy Tale Prince

"He's strong.."Prince Wyatt said.

"And powerful" Captain Crimson, completing his sentence for him

Prince Wyatt frowned, realization dawned on him as he finally understood the power that was held beneath the hands of Clara's father, Captain Davy.

'It seems that Mad John's knowledge was a bit limited' He thought.

"And I don't know if you have forgotten, but the sea you are standing on is one of the smaller parts of the 9 seas. Which means that you are about to kill the daughter of one of the generals on my sea" Captain Crimson eye said.

Seeing his expression, Prince Wyatt's body tensed up, he prepared to circulate his mana around his body and immediately jump into the sea if Captain Crimson eye makes any attempts to attack him.

"So is that the reason why you saved her? Because of her father?" But still, irrespective of the cautiousness he felt, Prince Wyatt replied.

"Yes, I am afraid so. As long as she is the daughter of Captain Davy, I can't let any harm come to her on my sea. Especially when she is about to be brutally gnawed and mauled to death" Captain Crimson looked down at Clara who has already passed out in his arms.

Nodding his head in understanding, Prince Wyatt replied "I see. So am I going to be reported or punished because I have attempted to kill the daughter of one of your generals?".

It seems like his life would be in danger again for the third time since he came into this world..... At least now he had a better chance of fighting back.

Captain Crimson eye looked at Prince Wyatt bewildered before he suddenly burst out into a fit of laughter which surprised Prince Wyatt and made the latter look at him in confusion.

Seeing Prince Wyatt's confused expression, Captain Crimson eye calmed down his gut and looked at him with narrowed eyes.

"Stop her!! Funny enough, I want to kill her too".

Unfortunately, Captain Crimson eye words only caused Prince Wyatt to look at him with more confusion and a bewildered expression on his face.

"Haaaa!!! Must I explain everything?" Captain Crimson eye said with a raised brow.

"Her father is the reason why I am here, the reason why he controls two of the biggest sea in the 'Depth of Levethian' is because he snatched it away from my father, Captain Baron, otherwise known as the Crimson Baron, the third strongest retired General in Captain Silver-tongue fleet...." He added with a sudden pause "Mind you, he is retired because of her father, Captain Davy".

Prince Wyatt's brows rose. He was surprised, intrigued and allured by the sudden revelation.

If he was to be brutally honest, it was as though he had just landed in the middle of a soap opera. The development of the sudden event was one that he wasn't happy with, yet he wanted to know more.

"I want to kill and bury her corpse somewhere far away in a cursed land in return for every shame and misfortune that he had inflicted upon my family and me".

"If you want to kill her that much, then what's stopping you? She is right there in your arms. What is stopping you from poisoning her right now or throwing her into the sea? For all I know, you could have just let her die and blame her death on me, and since everyone had seen me dropping her to her death, then every blame would be on me" Prince Wyatt said, elaborating his words so that Captain Crimson eye would understand what he means and know that he meant it.

"I would be the killer, not you. Don't you think that I haven't thought about the consequences before I decided to attempt such a thing?"

Captain Crimson eye stared into Prince Wyatt's eye.

Prince Wyatt stared back. Their gaze was locked on each other, their eyes trying to decipher the other.

Captain Crimson eye smirked and replied "You didn't strike me as a careless and brash individual Prince Wyatt".

"How so?" Prince Wyatt replied.

"Captain Clara is the only child of Captain Davy. So do you think that he would allow her to row away on these dangerous waters without protection? Even if he did, the moment he finds out that she is dead, he will leave everything behind and chase you to the ends of the world" Captain Crimson eye responded.

"By then, I would have already fled. He can chase me, but that doesn't mean that he would be able to catch me. I have my plans, and that is why I can safely say that before he comes for me, I will be ready" Prince Wyatt replied.

"It seems that you also are stubborn" Captain Crimson eye replied, shaking his head at Prince Wyatt's statement.

"Don't I have the right to be? Especially when the person you are holding in your hands is certainly going to become a thorn in my back sometime in the future?".

"I understand your emotion and can relate to them, But, unfortunately, I can't let you go through with your plan".

"Why?" Prince Wyatt questioned.

"Because this is my sea, and I won't allow her death to be on it" Captain Crimson eye's gaze hardened as he looked at Prince Wyatt.

"Fine. If that is your only reason, you can leave her on my ship, and I will carry her out of your sea before dropping her body back into the ocean" Prince Wyatt said as he walked towards the upper deck where the helm was located.

Even though he didn't like Captain Crimson eye's interference, there was nothing he could do to collect Clara back from his arms since he wasn't strong enough to do so.

He could tell that the Captain was strong after witnessing the feat that he had just pulled out in front of his eyes.

And even though he knows that he has grown stronger, trying to pick a fight right now would be stupid, especially after the successful intimidation that he had pulled off, in the beginning.

He was weak without Toothless but why would he let another person know about such a weakness, especially a Pirate?

He was weak, and although it irked him, he knew that it wasn't his fault.

The fault for his weakness belongs to the former Prince Wyatt, But can he blame a dead man that needed to die for him to find a place in this world?

Nonetheless, whether he had arrived in this world for four days, a week or a month, death wouldn't care for such an excuse when it comes knocking on his door, so he needed to find someone that would show him how to become strong since he couldn't do so himself.

His luck had worked the first time. It had worked the second time. And as for the third time...,. His luck might not be enough.

Meanwhile, Captain Crimson eye's could feel his face twitch after listening to Prince Wyatt's response.

Looking at his crewmen who were watching their conversation at a safe distance with weary gazes, he called them over.

"Come here and carry her into one of the free rooms, make sure to make Jerry checks up on her later".

His crewmen immediately walked towards him without hesitation and just when they were about to leave the ship, a loud voice entered his ear.

"Captain!! Captain!! Please help us!!! We want to stay by Captain Clara's side when she wakes up, please help us get out of here too".

The voice came from a woman who instantly took to her heel and ran towards Captain Crimson eye, but just when she was about to reach him, one of his crewmen reacted instantly and struck a blow towards her gut, causing her to fall back and collapse to the ground due to the reeling pain.

Kneeling in front of Captain Crimson eye, her eyes were steady as she continued with her plea.

"Please, we want to stay at Captain Clara's side!! Please free us from here".

Captain Crimson eye frowned as he could already guess that these were Captain Clara's crewmen.

But what he didn't yet understand was why Captain Clara and her crewmen were on Prince Wyatt's ship.

Sure he knew about their relationship with each other, and that was why he was determined to form some kind of relationship or bond with him.

Nonetheless, that was also why he was surprised that Prince Wyatt was attempting to kill her and now he has found a few of her crewmen rounded up like some group of criminals, he couldn't help but imagine what was going on in the First Prince's mind.

Never mind what kind of bad blood had formed between them, was the First Prince of the Endossa Empire this heartless that he would attempt to murder his ex sister-in-law?

Was he really ready to go to war with his ex Uncle-in-Law irrespective of the consequences that it might bring?

No, he couldn't let that happen. He needed to make Captain Davy watch as he takes back everything he owns, everything he loves and cherishes...

Including his daughter, his most priceless possession.
