The Immortal Player

Chapter 91: This scent...

"Captain Paul, You sure know how to joke!"

"Hahahaha! Beatrice, though I find your response hilarious, what I said will most likely happen! You know too less... and underestimated too much, how the top brass of the BHO works!"

"how the top brass works?"

"Yes! Anyway... That's to be expected since the balance of power will shift once more!" Paul Sorales nodded.

"The balance of power will change?!" Beatrice crossed her arms as her face frowns.

"Right!"

"Are you saying that this war will happen due to that change?"

"I am not sure. But... All I know is that... the Vicealmirante's death may bring a huge effect on the balance of power within the organization."

"I... can't argue with that!" Beatrice sighed as she remembers her memories of Madame Soledad.

"I guess... We can just wait and see." Paul sighed as he tightens his grasp into his katana.

"Uhm..."

...

Back on the Ship, Pedro and Sabrina arrived at the other ship and met Mathew and the rest.

"Brother Pedro!" Aldo shouted as he ran towards Pedro and Sabrina to receive them.

"Brother Aldo! What's up!" Pedro smiled towards Aldo as soon as he arrived. Sabrina who was walking beside Pedro waved a 'Hi' to Aldo. He nodded with a smile in return.

"I'm Exhausted!" Aldo sighed as he leans forward and looks like someone who just finished his daily exercise.

"Hahaha! This is a game though." Pedro mocked with a smile.

"Game my ass! I didn't know that managing a ship would be this troublesome. It feels like I am a Captain of a ship in real life!"

"Hahahaha! Do not worry brother! Your hard work will bear fruit in the future! You just need to keep doing your best and be patient. I promise you, brother Aldo, that the benefits you will gain would not be that simple!"

Pedro smiled as he thought that if only Aldo knew the future of playing the game and its benefits.

"I believe your brother. But... can you at least tell me some few hints and stuff? Even stuff and hints that can help lessen some of my workload in-game would be great!"

"I'll see what I can do. But... For now, I will have to ask brother Aldo to endure this for a few more days!" Pedro scratched his chin as he thinks of a way to help ease Aldo's workload on the other ship. Besides, the players' number one goal was to get stronger and to level up. So, Aldo's current situation wasn't ideal in the future.

"If Brother Pedro says so..." Aldo sighed, but after he stole a glance to Pedro and Sabrina, he smirked as he went and place his hard to Pedro's shoulder. Aldo pulled Pedro at some distance from Sabrina and whispered to him.

"Brother Pedro, Be honest... Something happened between you and Sabrina?"

Pedro wore an awkward smile as the two of them stole a glance at Sabrina.

"What do you think?" Pedro smirked.

"Hahahaha! That's my brother! Hahahaha!" Aldo burst into laughter as he sent waves of strong pats behind Pedro.

"Hmmm?" Sabrina became confused as he watches Aldo laugh.

"It's nothing Sabrina~" Pedro waved with an embarrassed look.

"HMMM?!" Sabrina frowned as she crossed her arms and stopped walking.

"Oh... Boss... It's nothing! Hehe!" Pedro quickly catches up before Sabrina can lecture him.

'Man, that was close. My skin would get turned 180 degrees if I didn't notice that!'

"Eheeeem! Brother Aldo, how are the others doing?" Pedro changed the topic as Aldo stopped laughing and wiped the 'tears of joy' in his eyes.

"They are fine. If you want to see them, I can bring you to them."

"No need. Just give these to them." Pedro took out the things he bought from the auction and gave it to Aldo.

"Brother... this..."

"Stop... Just accept it! If you want to repay me, then repay me by your hard work! Do your best to become stronger! The same for the other three."

"Hah... Then I guess, I can only say... I WILL DO MY BEST!" Aldo sighed and replied with confidence.

"That's good! I won't take your time any longer. See you around!" Pedro smiled as he and Sabrina waved 'goodbye' to Aldo. Aldo remained silent as he gave Pedro a salute.

'Seems like Brother Aldo liked the game.' Pedro smirked as he walks away, with Sabrina, from Aldo.

A few minutes later after walking back, Sabrina broke the silence.

"We have a few hours left before we log off... Are you gonna be fine when we are offline?"

"YES BOSS!" Pedro shouted with a salute.

"Tch..." Sabrina frowned and pinched Pedro to his side.

"Ouch!"

"Stop joking, Blockhead! Hmph!" Sabrina crossed her arms and averted her glance from Pedro.

"Haha! I'll be fine. Don't worry! More importantly, worry about yourself. You will attend our class tomorro~Later, right? The main topic of everyone might be about the game, so... Don't let this distract you on your academics, Alright?"

"Hmph! The worried became the worry. I know what to do, you don't need to lecture me. But... thanks for the thought!" Sabrina blushed, which made Pedro blush. Pedro wore a shy look as he nods in agreement.

...

Somewhere in a forest of the Aquari continent.

*Sniiiiiff!

"This scent... An exiled one? AWOOOOOOO!"

A werewolf with a huge body, sharp claws, and needle-like fur screamed as his blood-red eyes were filled with anger and killing intent.

"I WILL FIND YOU! I WILL TRACK YOUR STEPS! AND I WILL KILL YOU! That power will belong to me, THE FUTURE DEMON KING! AWOOOOO!"
