Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

Chapter 144 The Royal Swindler

?The door was shut behind me as I walked out with the two crates in my hands.

Although half of what I had just spouted out was true, I can't help but chuckle at the rubbish that had just come out of my mouth.

Hah! I almost even believed myself.

HAI!!

The guards immediately saluted by keeping their hands down in a defensive position as I made my way passed the gates. I guess seeing their King personally escorting me into their home made their respect for me rise astronomically.

I didn't halt my steps for any reason until I found an alley and casually walked into it. After I laid them down, I gently wrapped my magical energy around them the same way Annabelle had explained the process to me.

Suddenly, I felt my senses and a huge portion of my attention around the two crates also.

Good! It's working.

Having an ascendant explain this to me was honestly as better as I had imagined since they had the experience to back it up.

Due to my out-pour of magical energy, the air around the environment suddenly became dense, and then, soundlessly, the two crates disappeared and entered my 'Temporary storage space'.

And this time, I could sense it.

As it turns out, leaving a large portion of your magical energy on something makes it easier to trace, however, it also means that other ascendants can pick up these traces too if they are familiar with you.

However, the easiest way to avoid such an event is to just leave a trace of your magical energy on it, which is something that requires time and effort to learn and execute.

Fortunately for me, I had both of these things to invest in since I wanted to be strongest to get whatever I wanted.

It took me less than 30 minutes before I arrived back at the brothel....

"Annabelle" I muttered, in surprise. I certainly didn't expect her to be here of all places at such an hour. Especially if she still decided to put on those robes that left her cleavage in the open.

And to be honest, I was beginning to wonder how many of those same types of clothes she brought with her.

I looked down to stare at mine. Honestly, the fact that these things still look neat and proper amazes me. Although I didn't know how to check if there are enchantments on them, which I am sure they were, and how many they were.

But, one thing I am sure of, is that this boxer and trenchcoat feels fresh every time I put them on.

Maybe a self-clean feature.

Hmm! No matter what, I can only agree that it was cost-effective.

As I walked forward I let my magical energy sweep across her a little.

Too much! Too much!!

I immediately exhaled in relief the moment I withdrew back my magical energy.

That was close. Too close. I had just bothered between the line of letting her know of my presence and sending a life-threatening warning.

And as expected, countless tiny ice spikes suddenly appeared around her. Each honed in on me without her even turning to look behind her back.

"Swooosh" "Swooosh"

I instantly channelled my magical energy in front of me and my flames.

"BOOOM!"

Within seconds, the ice collided with the wall of flames in front of me and melted to nothingness. Nevertheless, although, I had stopped the deadly projectiles.... my flames, however…..

Well, let's just say that they looked like Dante's first house-warming party to hell.

"SHOW YOURSELF, COWARD!" A high pitch feminine voice, which I believed belonged to Annabelle penetrated through my flames and entered my ears.

Truthfully, I was tempted to walk around the wall of flames that I had just created and immediately clear up the brewing misunderstanding.

But, have you ever seen or heard of someone walking around a wall of fire that they had created?

No! I am sure you haven't.

It was either they walked through their flames or scatter them into the winds as it slowly disappears in front of them with a cloud of heavy smoke or fog.

I touch the flames with my left hand and felt my magical energy wrapped around it for protection. Yes, even though I had conjured it, and I had a slight immunity against some of the elements which I felt had increased drastically after I had ascended, it was still fire, which meant that it could still hurt me if I wasn't careful.

Just because you conjured a rain of free-falling rocks doesn't mean that it won't hit you unless you the conjurer can control them.

It was something that I could do, almost instinctively as though my body had done it before. Almost the same way as when I set myself ablaze or surrounded myself in the bluish water sphere, which I concluded was some kind of ascendant technique that the former Prince Wyatt had learnt.

Nonetheless, I lit my body up in flames and walked through the wall of fire. The moment I crossed to the other side, I immediately switched off my flames and withdrew my magical energy, scattering walls of fire into the wind.

"I hope you won't regret eve --" Annabelle froze. "Cap… C.." Her voice hung in her throat the moment she saw my face clearly, with the foggy vapour behind me that rose into the sky.

"Annabelle?"

"Captain... I.."

I interrupted her. "Don't worry, I was the one who attacked you first, and you were just protecting yourself from a threat". Yeah, there was no way I was going to tell her I am still learning how to control my powers, especially when she was still under my nose.

I asked "What are you doing here? I wasn't expecting to see you here during such hours".

She cleared her throat. Her chest heaved up and down. together with her bust, as she took her time to soothe herself down before she responded "I came to talk to you about the ship. By now, I think that the shipwright must have been down with it or is close to finishing the necessary repairs and we need to about its status to make other plans for the future".

"Why didn't you come t…." I trailed off before I smacked my lips shut in realization.

"I was the one that asked you to come today, wasn't I?".

"Yes," Annabelle nodded. "Although I came early, but when I approached your door, you were…." I didn't miss it as her eyes immediately trailed down to my crotch "….Busy. And so, I decided to come some other time, but you were still at it. So, in the end, I decided to wait for you outside after the …workers told me that you had gone out".

I sighed. "How long have you been waiting?"

"Almost an hour and a half".

I remembered telling a worker that I was familiar with to take care of Nina, whenever she woke up and to tell her that I went out and would be back soon if she was worried about my whereabouts.

I nodded at her words. "So, how about we send some of my crewmen back, and one or two would return to the kingdom with a report of the ship?".

She shook her head at my statement "I was hoping that you send me to do that since trusting a group of men who had spent almost a week in a brothel and hadn't even made an attempt to step outside doesn't seem too reliable. And besides, I know the shipwright well enough to finish whatever instalments you wish to add and --".

"Stop". I interrupted. Although she had a great point, presently, Annabelle, was the last person I wanted to gain control of or leave alone, with my ship.

I trusted Mad John enough to leave him with such a task, but not her. "Don't worry about it, they are just releasing their stress after I told them what comes next when we are ready to head back into the sea".

I strolled forward and gestured for her to follow me. I continued to speak. "So, I don't think that you need to worry about their competence or loyalty".

I will deal with my crew myself, and fish out the ones that aren't reliable.

I pushed the door and walked into the brothel, with Annabelle following behind me. The arousing sound of debauchery filled my ears while the ever-erotic smell cried out to me to pick a woman with the nicest ass I could find and bend her over while I plunge my dick deep into her fleshy insides.

I lightly suck in a deep of air and gently released it. At this point, I was already aware that my lust was insatiable

Whether it was a sense of conquest that filled every string and cell in my body that felt like this was just the beginning of my journey or the fact I could now fuck any kind of woman I thought could only exist in fantasy, which filled my dick like a raging Bugatti on overdrive, I couldn't tell.
