Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

Chapter 21 Pirate Prince Wyatt

?Whether it was a whale, Poseidon, Aegaeon or Amphitrite herself, I won't let this ship get destroyed.

If I did, where would I find another group of strongmen willing and ready to serve under me?

I wasn't Genghis Khan, and neither was I Alexander the Great who could recruit and lead a thousand men to battle.

I knew my limits.

Instantly, the sensation I felt from Bones soon turned into hope and gratitude.

'No need. I can't let that whale bully us and go scott free can I?'.

"SWOOSH!!" "BANG!!" BANGG!!!"

We were finally on the upper deck, and I could feel the strong winds blowing against my skin as the ocean clashed against my ship violently.

Even the sounds of what I presumed were the cannons could be heard as I saw a flaming ball of fire hitting a huge moving creature in the ocean.

It didn't even take me a minute to know what the creature was.

"CAPTAIN, WHAT DO WE DO?" Mad John said, screaming at the side of my ears due to the heavy sound of racket around us.

"TWO OF OUR MEN WERE UNLUCKY AND GOT INJURED DURING THE FIRST ATTACK, AND THE REST AREN'T SURE THAT THEY COULD KEEP THE CANNONS GOING FOR LONG. WHAT ARE YOUR ORDERS CAPTAIN?"

What the hell?

How was I supposed to know what to do?

Aren't you the expert here Mad John?

Those were the words that I wanted to say. But looking at the eyes of a man patiently waiting for his captain's orders no matter how many stupid stunts the former Prince Wyatt might have pulled in the past made those words hang in my throat.

I didn't know what to do, so I couldn't bring myself to utter a word.

But still, think Wyatt. I know you aren't stupid, so think.

Wait a minute!

"WHERE IS THE KNIGHT? WHERE IS SHE?" I shouted.

"KNIGHT CAMILLE"

Oh! So that's her name. It's a beautiful name if you ask me.

"WHERE IS SHE? WITH HER HELP WITH WE COULD OVERCOME THIS EASILY".

With her, taking care of this tiger whale would be a breeze.

And considering if the stories and information that Mad John had given me were true, then there wasn't any need for me to worry.

"SHE IS ASLEEP CAPTAIN" Mad John responded.

WHAT?

I couldn't help but look at Mad John, evidently astounded at his words.

"I HAVE ALREADY GONE TO HER ROOM, AND SHE TOLD ME TO TELL YOU TO TAKE CARE OF THIS YOURSELF. FROM NOW ON, SHE IS NO MORE A PART OF YOUR CREW, AND SHE WILL DROP AND THE NEAREST TOWN WITH CAPTAIN CLARA".

That bitch!!!

I don't know why, but I am beginning to suspect that she was the one that threw the former Prince Wyatt ofF board to his death.

Calm down, Wyatt!!

Breathe in and breathe out.

Well if she doesn't want to help then I can't force her, can I?

Besides, I was already contemplating whether I should draw her to my side or get rid of her from the beginning.

I might as well do the latter when this is all over.

But for now, let's get rid of that whale first.

"Whose steering the ship?" I said, no longer shouting as the noise coming from the waves seems to have reduced.

Mad John looked at me dumbfounded as though he wasn't expecting my response.

"It's Seadog. Seadog is the one steering the ship".

Weird name. But not for a pirate.

"Let's go" I said pushing my thoughts to the back of my mind as I rushed towards the helm with Mad John following behind me.

Upon reaching, I could see the figure of a slim man with a tattoo on his hands forcefully trying to steer the ship away from the tiger whale, but the winds and the whale itself wouldn't allow him.

"MAD JOHN!! I AM NOT SURE I CAN HOLD ON ANY LONGER" Seadog screamed.

"CAPTAIN!!" Mad John said as I could hear his teeth grinding against each other.

I didn't know if he had noticed, but he has called me 'Captain' more than he has called me Prince Wyatt.

Not that I was complaining, but I needed to keep it like that. Because I could already tell, that who had the highest authority in this ship apart from me were Knight Camille and Mad John.

And even though I could feel the unearthly power coursing through my veins, I still needed someone I could trust and help me handle some matters that I know won't be possible for me to do.

That narrows my choice to either Mad John or Knight Camille.

"BANG!!!" "CRASH!!!!"

The ship swayed from side to side as I watched as Seadog slipped and fell to the floor due to waves slapping on top of us and his body which was unable to keep up; with the sudden collision.

I ran towards the helm and held it tightly.

Although it was strong and hard to pull. But, I pushed. I pushed everything I had into my hands and turned the steering to the other side, driving it away from the direction of the tiger whale

However….

"Captain!! Let me help" Mad John said as soon as he arrived at my side and joined me to hold the helm as we continued tilting it to the other side.

That settles the debate then.

Mad John, it is.

I might not be able to trust him with my life yet, but at least I am sure that I can count on him.

Yet, for some reason, I felt a shiver through my spine every time he calls me 'Captain' and looks at me with those eyes of admiration and respect.

I wasn't drunk in power.

Come on!! I just arrived here in a day. It would take a lot more than this little show of respect and admiration to turn me into a tyrant.

And I wasn't planning on becoming one anyway.

I couldn't explain what I felt, but that didn't mean that my body couldn't.

"Haaaah!!!!"

I screamed, turning the helm with everything I had.

Everything!!

I did nothing except let the otherworldly power flowing in my veins run without constraints.

I held nothing back.

"BOOOM!!"
