Chapter 480: Stealing From Those Who Steal Part 1

Pov Marcos:

I was arriving at the meeting point he said yesterday, I'm bringing everything I need on this boat, what I wouldn't need I sold as soon as possible, but most importantly my wife is in my arms now.

"Do you think we can trust him?" (I)

"You said yourself that he's much stronger than he looks, plus I felt he wasn't someone with bad intentions against us." (Carla)

"He doesn't gain anything by deceiving us, he could get what he wanted in other ways." (Carla)

"..." (I)

Sigh

"I think you're right." (I)

When we arrived at the beach and I saw that he was not alone, I wondered how many people are with him, they are all wearing masks deferential to him that hides his whole body.

When I leave my dear Clara in the bed I brought, I walk towards him who, to my surprise, asked one of the people with him to build a great barrier that covers all of us and my boat.

Soon after he and those around him take off their masks, he shows off his long red hair, his dark skin, and his different colored eyes.

I wasn't even able to say his gender, all I knew was that his beauty was the biggest I'd ever seen besides my wife.

But one thing I've learned during my years working with illegal traders and all sorts of criminals is to never show what I'm thinking, so I struggle not to change my expression as I try to ignore his appearance.

Then I realize something else when I hear the woman who erected this powerful barrier calling him Father, I look better at his spout and see Vampire teeth, the same for the woman who erected the barrier, but I also see a Demon woman with him.

The only thing that crossed my mind was that they could be from the Dark Continent, so if I accepted working for him I could go there where I wouldn't have to hide since I'm not a criminal on that continent.

Soon I see him using his power to free my crew from slavery, each of them were people who would be discarded or in other words, they would be killed, I had to buy them with an excuse to save their lives, some I already tried to free, but none of them have a place to go back to.

Pov Zenos:

I had already arranged a house for Marcos and Carla in the City of Shadows, so we took them there while I introduced everyone to the city.

I was happy to see that everyone was impressed with the city and its inhabitants in a good way, which means we won't have any problems.

After that I let them be accompanied by Jade and Sapphira, the next day Alice looked for me to say that Marcos wanted to meet me, so I told Nix to bring him to the boat.

A few minutes later Marcos arrives and sees me fishing with my body fully covered, he is wearing a mask and sits in the chair next to me taking the fishing rod that is there to join me on the fishing.

"So the big ship that arrived in the city a few days ago was really his." (Marcos)

"Yes, your job will be to be the captain of this ship." (I)

"I'm going to need more people, my crew can take some checkpoints, but this ship is too big, that's why I don't even want to mention inside it." (Marcos)

"You can choose whoever you want from the city, but I advise the Elves and Lizardman's who have been working on this ship for a while." (I)

"I'll talk to them, thanks." (Marcos)

"No need to worry about thanking you for such simple advice." (I)

"I'm not thanking you for the advice, I'm thanking you for giving me an opportunity like this and for saving my wife, weak to you I was able to wake up next to her today with a real smile on both of our faces." (Marcos)

"No need to thank me for that either, I didn't exactly make a bone for the sake of my heart." (I)

"Besides, did you just come to talk to me about this?" (I)

"No, my last jobs have been for the same contractor, I thought you might like to know about him and the plan he has." (Marcos)
