The Immortal Player

Chapter 90: Boss?

"How were things doing in the CBCR Sabrina?"

"According to the NPC, the sailing was smooth so far. There are no problems at the moment."

"I see. By the way... Can I ask you something?" Pedro smiled as he stole a glance at Sabrina. The awkwardness he felt before was now gone. He became used to Sabrina being with him. Hence, Pedro can now talk casually with Sabrina.

"A~ask? Sure, what is it?" Sabrina raised her eyebrows anticipating what Pedro was about to say.

"You know what... Forget about it." Pedro halted for a moment as if he remembered something important. He shifted his gaze forward as his heart changed its rhythm and started to beat faster.

"Eh? You said that you have something to ask me."

"Just forget about it... It's something personal."

"If you say so. However, If you change your mind, Don't hesitate to approach me." Sabrina respects Pedro hence she didn't pry any further to that matter.

'If I won't say it now... I might not have a chance, to say it in the future. Hah... F**k it! I don't wanna end up to be the same loser I am in the past!'

"Eh... Then... Can I ask you?"

"Ask what? Sure! go ahead." Sabrina became confused as Pedro stopped once again. However, this time, He turned around with a serious look.

"Then... Sabrina, Can you be my girlfriend?!"

Pedro shouted at the top of his lungs. After shouting, he focused his gaze on the floor near where Sabrina was standing. His heart beats faster than normal as beads of sweat started to fall from his forehead to his blushing face.

Silence filled the hallway as Sabrina was speechless, not knowing what to say. While Pedro never felt this degree of nervousness in his life. As each seconds pass, his heart starts to tighten. The longer time passes, the more awkward he felt and the more his heart hurts.

"I remem~" Pedro raised his head and was about to say his 'Escape' lines when Sabrina interrupted.

"Yes..."

"Eh..." Pedro was astounded and can't help but to stare at Sabrina.

"I said... Yes!" Sabrina averted her gaze from Pedro as she started to walk towards Pedro.

Pedro was still speechless as his 'heart pain' and sadness were suddenly replaced with a seemingly endless amount of joy.

'Yahooooo! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!' Pedro screamed inwardly as he felt relieved. He seemed like someone who just won from the lottery. Before he could calm himself, Sabrina was just a step away from him.

Sabrina hugged Pedro that made his heart beat faster than before. Pedro hugged back Sabrina as he placed his right hand to Sabrina's back and his left hand to her head and caressed it.

"I'm not dreaming, right?!" Pedro joked with a smile to break the silence.

"Blockhead! Does this hurt?" Sabrina smirked as she pinched the skin on Pedro's back, and twisted it... 180 degrees.

"AAAAAA-Ouch!" Pedro screamed on top of his lungs that made Sabrina laugh.

"Hahahahaha! Did I just got my self a crybaby?"

"Tch! Anyone would cry when they got pinched like that!"

"Alright! Alright! At least, you know now what will happen to you when you do something wrong! Also, From now on I want you to call me 'Boss'!" Sabrina's hug to Pedro tightens as if she didn't want to let go of him.

"Boss?"

"Yeah! You got a problem with that?"

"N~No, Boss!"

"Good... Hahaha!" Sabrina laughed as she released Pedro from her hug.

"Hmm... It's kinda unfair! I want you to also call me 'something'!" Pedro complained as he straightened his outfit.

"Then I will call you Blockhead!" Sabrina walked backward, ahead of Pedro, as she happily raised her hand as if signifying for a good idea. Pedro, who was scratching his chin and was in deep thought while walking, shifted his gaze to Sabrina with a confused look.

"Why blockhead?"

"Cause you're an idiot... who thinks about others before yourself!"

"Eh? When did I~"

"Do I even need to remind you of something?" Sabrina sighed as she turned around and matched Pedro's walking pace. Sabrina was referring to the recent accident where Pedro acted to help others to the point that he disregarded his own safety.

"Let's not talk about that!"

"Whatever, blockhead!" Sabrina smiled as she was about to reach Pedro's hand.

"Tch... Anyway, I'll go and check how the other ship is doing."

"I'll go with you!" Sabrina made a cute face as if imitating a cute cat who was asking for food to her owner.

"Alright! Alright! You can come."

"Hehe... Don't worry, I'll protect you no matter what!" Sabrina smiled which made her shine like a beautiful celebrity.

...

On the port of Bearth Human Organization Headquarters...

"Brother Yojiro! That ship!"

"Uhm... One of the three ships of the Legendary fleet Karakoa... The ship, Felippe!"

"We must join that crew brother!"

"I can't promise, but... We'll absolutely do our best to top in the recruitment event!"

"Yeril, Mom... Dad... One day, Brother and I will return to save you from the monsters!"

Two young men wearing a neat BHO Uniform and has a Katana on their waists, stood in front of the window of their room, into which the room faces towards the port and the open sea. All other BHO members who will participate in the recruitment event stayed in the same type of room that was provided by the officials. The two young men have a thin body built. Although the two of them have a small size of muscles, they were well-toned like they were doing bodybuilding.

...

On the ship Felippe, Captain Paul Sorales, Kentaro's apprentice, stood in the deck of the ship.

"We're finally here!" Paul Sorales sighed as if he was carrying a huge weight on his back.

"Don't worry, Captain! Vicealmirante's apprentice will also go to the recruitment event." A female crew spoke behind him.

"Still... Things won't be that easy for all of us! At worst... There might be a war coming in our way!"

"A war, Captain? with monsters?"

"No... among us, humans!"
