Chapter 83 The Awaited Answer

Walking towards the edge of the ship, it didn't take me long to understand the Toothless was asleep as I was aware of her current state of mind.

Even I am feeling sleepy now!

I yawned. I stretched out my limbs and arms to the side before I prepared to head back inside. Although it was unexpected, a quiet stroll and some bonding time with my crewmen didn't look like a waste of time to me.

Hopefully, as time passes, I will have men who are willing and able to protect me and this ship. Hopefully, it wouldn't be long before it happens.

Walking back through the door I had just walked out from, I headed straight to my new room, leaving whatever thoughts that would disrupt my current coolheaded state of mind to drift along with the wind.

"Bamm!" The wind aided in closing the door behind me.

…....….

"Haa!! Haaa!!! You can come out now, he's gone" Seadog said as he looked at his fellow crewmen who had hidden together with him when they both sighted the figure of Prince Wyatt.

"Are you sure?" Logen asked, cautiously.

Seadog snorted "Of course I am, do you think that I will lie to you when we are both in this together?" He responded.

Logen peeped out from the corner he was taking refuge in before he sighed in relief.

"I thought that he would never leave. Who knew that the Captain loved to take a view of the sea at night" Logen muttered.

Meanwhile, Seadog shook his head at his fellow crewman's utterances. Remembering the events of yesterday, he could only bow his head in shame at how badly their plan had backfired on them.

Now, their slave's contracts were deep within the belly of that monstrous Tiger Whale. Which they soon discovered is Prince Wyatt's tamed beast.

"Goddamn it" Seadog uttered in frustration. Why the hell is it this difficult to get out of their current mess?

Of course, he planned to run to the other ship and seek shelter among the Crimson black-eye crew. However seeing how they had brutally murdered Captain Clara's crewmen and after also being warned by Mad John, the idea just passed through his head like a ghost.

"Seadog, what are we going to do now?" His companion asked.

Seadog sighed "Let's head back in" He responded in utter defeat.

"But, how about the pla...."

"Tshkk… Forget about the plan. Let's just wait and see what happens next" Seadog replied "God willing, he keeps his word. And we should pray that he does".

…....…..

Looking at the overweight rat in front of me, I used my palms to massage my forehead.

At first, I wanted to summon the book and have it try the evolutional process and see if it would work, but sensing that Bones was still asleep and playing around in his dreamland, I couldn't do so.

I needed him awake so that I could try the different options in my mind. And since I can feel the magical energy in his body constantly growing, I didn't want anything to affect or disrupt whatever was changing within his body.

Magical beasts grow stronger by preying on the cores or flesh another beast much stronger than it. I guess that it also applies to the flesh of a human being!

And since Knight Camille was stronger, so strong that she could pinch Bones to death just by staring at him, it wasn't surprising that he would need some time to process the meat and the magical energy that is stored in it.

If it's indeed true, then trying to understand how he rushed on the meat until his stomach was bloated was understandable.

Yes, maybe that might be it. At least that's all I could come up with for now. Besides, the truth of the matter will be known when he wakes up and tells me what happened, along with everything going around in his body.

Regardless, I couldn't also test it on Toothless as she was the only real strength I had now. Of course, I still planned to test if she could enter the Temporary storage space but testing something as drastic as an evolution path on the only boxing gloves I had now just screamed -reckless.

Even if without a doubt, it would be successful, I still had to remember that this world is real. The people, their lives, their standards, and everything they all believe in is real.

And rather than behaving like I had a goddamned halo over my head that would make sure I succeeded, it was better to look for a new beast and experiment on it.

Yes, that's feasible a plan for now.

And while I am at it, I will also increase my power by finding a way to trick Annabelle into teaching me more about magical energy.

She looked like someone trying too hard to be smart, so it shouldn't be that hard.

Nonetheless, I summoned the book and flipped the pages open, checking how strong I have become since I felt more unrealistically strong ever since I bounded with Toothless.

Oh my!!! It seems that I have gotten much stronger than I imagined.

And surprisingly, I can still feel some kind of energy trapped in me, so that means that there is still room for growth.

I closed my book with traces of joy on my face as I saw that I could now tame up to thirteen magical beasts.

Just imagining hundreds of beasts fighting for me while I lay comfortably behind their protection, was enough to let a smirk spread wide around my lips as I jumped on the comfy bed behind me.

Seeing that everything was okay and the only thing that I needed at this moment was time, I closed my mind and slept comfortably, letting tomorrow sort itself out until I get there.

…...

"Knock!!" "Knock!!!"

"Captain!!"

"Knock!!" "Knock!!!"

The noise kept on coming, continuously ringing into Prince Wyatt's head until he woke up begrudgingly and dragged his sleepy body over to the door.

Opening the locks, he stared at Mad John, who was standing seriously beside his door.

"What is it?" He asked.

"Ahem!! Captain, have you forgotten that we have to meet Captain Crimson eye today and give him your answer" Mad John responded "He is waiting on the upper decks for you right now".

Prince Wyatt showed an expression of understanding before letting a tired sigh escape his lips.

"Hold on, let me go get a bath first" Prince Wyatt replied, shutting the door before waking out with some clothes in his hands.

"Don't follow me" Prince Waytt added "Wait for me at the upper deck I will meet you there soon",

Hesitantly, Maad John nodded his head before he turned around and left.

Prince Wyatt walked to the bathroom, yawing occasionally as he greeted some of his crewmen along the way.

….....

"How long did you say that it would take the Prince to get here?" Jerry said, narrowing his eyes at the man in front of him.

Meanwhile, Mad John couldn't help but thicken his skin against Jerry's offensive glare. The first time he meet the man, although he was fierce, he wasn't this abusive with his words.

Mad John was seriously beginning to wonder what changed! He was even thinking of forming some kind of bond with Jerry.

A deep breath of hot air escape his lips as he shook his head 'Maybe it was never meant to be' He thought.

"Let him be, Jerry. We have some time to spare today, so we will keep on waiting for the Prince till he arrives. So please be a little patient" Captain Crimson eye responded disapprovingly, saving Mad John from an unexpected fate.

Of course, he knew the reason for Jerry's agitated behaviour, and that was the reason why he was disappointed.

'How is it possible that he hadn't yet figured out such a simple plan?' Captain Crimson eye thought.

Retreating from his thoughts, his attention was drawn by the approaching figure of a familiar individual.

Seeing who it was, he smiled.

"The man of the hour is finally here" His words caused the others to look in the direction he was staring at.

Mad John sighed in relief and chose never to do this again.

It was better he came along with the Prince rather than wait here and bear the full brunt of an ascendant.

And soon, Prince Wyatt arrived in front of them. Halting his steps, he looked at the two men before him

"Since we all know the reason why we are here, I guess there is no need for long talks since it would be better if I went straight to the point and give you my answer" Prince Wyatt said.
