Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

Chapter 120 It Can't Go Wrong, Right?

?"I--"

"Just keep quiet for a moment and let me explain" I repeated.

Good! Seeing that she had quieted down and was looking at me with a questioning gaze, I opened my mouth and chose my next words carefully.

"Annabelle?"

"Yes, Captain"

I pointed my hands at Nina, "This is Nina" I paused briefly, then continued "She is my wife".

Annabelle blinked at me weirdly before her eyes flashed over to Nina with a more observant gaze.

"Nina?"

"Yes, Prince Wyatt"

"This is Annabelle" I pointed both my hands to Annabelle "She is a member of my crew"

"And my teacher" Annabelle uttered, immediately after I finished speaking.

"Yes, I am also her teacher and she is my student" I explained.

"...Captain, is that it?" Annabelle asked. Her lips were thinly pressed together. Surprisingly, she seems put off by the fact that I got a wife, or that she won't be the only woman onboard the ship

"Yes" I nodded my head "Now, you guys should digest that knowledge first before you speak to each other….. It would be bad if any of you started on the wrong foot".

My stare didn't linger on one of them, but instead, I flickered my eyes at the two of them, and their expression, at the same time, preparing myself for any sudden outburst.

Of course, I certainly wasn't expecting the two women to meet in such a way!

My hand ran through my hair as the confrontation now turned into a one-minute awkward showdown.

Suddenly, Annabelle walked forward, her eyes fully focused on Nina. She stretched a hand forward for a handshake. A few moments later, Nina grabbed it and shook her hand.

"So you are his mistress?" Annabelle asked. She undoubtedly wasn't doing a good job hiding her dissatisfaction.

"Yes. It seems that I am" Nina replied, and then continued "And you are his student, and crew member?".

"Yes I am"

"So that means that Prince Wyatt is a Pirate?"

"Yes, he is"

Yeah! I haven't told her yet.

"Does that mean you guys are part of Captain Crimson eye crew?"

"No, we are not a part of his crew. But we know each other in some way" The back-and-forth questions and answers were thrown at each other without even a slight pause. It was as though they could understand the other person's facial expression and predict their next words.

"The--"

I interrupted their conversation. They didn't seem like they were going to stop anytime soon.

"Now, you both have introduced yourselves to each other" They both turned their heads and stared at me. Annabelle most especially stared at me with a stern inquiry gaze.

I paid it no heed, and continued "So what is it you want to talk about?" I asked, "I hope that it isn't anything serious". Since she entered the brothel and walked straight to my room, it wasn't difficult to know that something was up.

"No, it isn't. But it's still something I need to talk to you about" Annabelle responded. She sat down and made herself comfortable on the chair before she explained "You see, I...…."

….....

My brows furrowed "Is that what happened? And the reason you weren't here yesterday?".

"Yes" Annabelle responded. She crossed her arms and let out a long tired sigh from her lips "And that's why I came to you because I didn't bring that kind of money with me as I left it on the ship together with my luggage….. The one I have here is much but, not enough. I promise to pay you back when we get back to the ship".

"I understand. But that isn't the main problem right now. The main issue is that you were attacked by the Slo-oy..."

"The Sloywoth kingdom" She corrected.

"Yes, the Sloywoth kingdom" I noted "If they took such a chance to risk everything and fight you head-on just to bring you back to their king, I don't see any reason for them not to do the same thing again when they discover another opportunity".

"Yes, and that is why I have spoken with Boris beforehand" She explained.

"Who's Boris?" I questioned.

"He is the de-facto ruler of this city and the one the fight before it got out of hand"

I nodded in understanding. While I was here having some fun, engaging in a little exercise and picking up harem members, all these things were happening. Of course, I was aware that this world won't stop revolving because of me. But, that didn't mean that I didn't have plans to steer it in the direction, that I wanted.

I smiled.

My head tilted to the side, catching a glimpse of Nina's bewildered expression. Apart from meeting the de-facto rulers of the city and owing them some money, heaven knows what else shocked her.

I stood up, and straightened my coat "Let's go and meet this king".

"You are coming along" Annabelle asked with a raised brow.

"Of course. You are now a part of my crew. Which means that you are also my subordinate" I explained "So I can't let you handle such a thing by yourself".

Considering that I can smell the political affairs of the situation from a mile away. Politics. Politics is not my best friend.

She gave me a strange look but didn't object. "Alright, let's go" She nodded.

I turned to look at Nina "Are you coming? Or you would rather rest a little and wait till I come back?".

"I am coming" Nina rushed to grab her jacket, pulled it over her head and wore it before standing in front of me, with an exasperated breath.

I almost forgot that she is still afraid of being assassinated by the fallen kingdoms. As for which, we are still figuring that out.

Well, at least now, because of Annabelle, I have an opportunity to socialize with one of them now and understand the kind of people I would be dealing with, considering that I would be staying in the Vrymath kingdom for quite some time.

With fluid movements, I opened the door, walked out, and led the way downstairs. After reaching the last floor, I met with the same girl as yesterday who purposely derailed the conversation and caused Annabelle to stare at me with an odd gaze.

Unfortunately for her, I wasn't in the mood, again.

Yeah! Sex isn't the only thing I think about…. at least, not 24/7.

Besides, it's not as though I had any plans of fucking her as she wasn't on the checklist of women I wanted to sleep with.

…....…..

"7, 000 gold coins".

The huge amount of money still rang deeply in my head. There were a lot.... a whole lot of things that I could accomplish with just 7, 000 gold coins. I don't even believe I could accumulate such an amount of money by myself without pulling a few feats or breaking some personal financial barriers.

And now, I followed behind my new spouse --Husband --Prince-- Master... Ah! I still can't figure out what to call him.

I shook my head and scattered those thoughts. No, this isn't what I should be focusing on.

Didn't he say that he was a pirate?

Her prince was also a pirate! For some reason, I didn't know how to feel about that. I had thought that he was only trying to soothe me with his words about protecting even as a banished prince. But, after I learned that he was a pirate, I understood that it wasn't an empty promise.

And the fact they were somehow connected to Captain Crimson eye, who I knew so little about! Nonetheless, I exhaled in relief. My life was safe now. I stared at Prince Wyatt and Annabelle.....

"Probably" I couldn't help but mutter.

"Hurry up!" Prince Wyatt's voice penetrated my ears. His hands were tucked in his brown trench coat. He strolled forward without a care in the world. His posture was as though he owned everything around him as he glanced at the street stalls and houses, not bothering to even spare a second glance.

And lastly, if you have never spoken to him before, you would only assume that he was arrogant, self cent….

"We are here?" My thoughts were derailed by the sudden announcement, and the familiar large gates in front of me.

I turned her head towards Annabelle, who didn't like me. Though, I could already guess the reason, why?

My eyes then flickered over to the guards who hurriedly opened the gates and welcomed us in. "Our king has been waiting for your" They both spoke at the same time.

One of them even left the gates and escorted us into the villa "Follow me".

"Thump!" Unknowingly, without even noticing it, My heartbeat began to race. Just yesterday I was about to be killed by one of the invaders. Now, I was about to step foot into the home of one of the fallen kings.

All these things felt unreal to me!
