Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

Although Prince Wyatt saw this opportunity as the best chance of learning how to make use of his powers, however, if he needed to learn from the woman that wanted to be his student, then he needed to be smart about it.

"I…-I" Annabelle stuttered on her words. Honestly, there was nothing that she could think of now, however, she couldn't just say that to Prince Wyatt and make a fool of herself.

How is she supposed to complete her mission now?

'Think Annabelle!! Think!!' She racked her brain to come up with an answer.

Yet, nothing came up.

Suddenly, an idea sprang into her head. Although she didn't know if it will work, however, she wouldn't know until she tried.

"As I have said before, I don't know what the Prince wants so I am not sure if you will like what I have to offer. However..." Seeing that Prince Wyatt was about to interrupt her once more, she quickly continued.

She only hopes that this might work "However, I first want to know if you want to repair this ship at the moment" She said.

Prince Wyatt frowned. He wondered where the woman was getting to with her statement. But instead of thinking much about it, he let her finish.

"Yes, of course, I do. I certainly don't want to carry this ship along the dangerous waves as it much clear that it wouldn't survive if repairs aren't done immediately" He answered.

His response caused a smile to bloom on Annabelle's face.

"Then, how about this if I can help you find a good shipwright, willing and able to repair your ship then, would you let me join your crew and become a student under your tutelage" Annabelle replied.

The wrinkles on Prince Wyatt's forehead spread.

"And why would I need your help in repairing my ship? It's not as though you are the one providing the funds for the repair, or are you?" He asked, wondering if the woman had some treasure chest nearby or whether she had something else in mind.

"No, unfortunately, I don't have the funds to do so, especially when we are talking about an enchanted ship. However, whether you like it or not, you will need someone's help in this part of the sea if you want to repair your ship. And I think it's better if I am the one providing such help because at least we all know what I am getting out of it" Annabelle responded.

Prince Wyatt still gazed at her with a confused expression on his face. His brain not entirely understanding the point she was getting to.

Shaking his head, he stretched his back comfortably against the chair "Can you explain?" He replied.

Clearing her throat, Annabelle choose her next words carefully as she spoke. It was very clear that the Prince didn't have any knowledge of the Cryptic sea so she could use that against him.

"The Cryptic sea is divided into three seas, each land between those seas is ruled by several small kingdoms, namely, the Clerholm sea between the Vrymath kingdom and the Sloywoth kingdom, the Botois sea surrounding the Brylen Kingdom and the Carlson sea between the Houya kingdom, the Auziloth Kingdom and the Eser Kingdom" Annabelle paused, letting the geography of the Cryptic Sea sink into the head of the two men in front of her.

"In other to easily gain access into any of these kingdoms, one would first need to pass through the Cryptic Sea, which is linked to The Depths of Leviathan. And although it is a part of it, there is a reason why it is ranked the lowest of the 9 seas in the Depths of Leviathan".

Prince Wyatt shook his head "I still don't understand what you are getting to".

"Dont worry, Prince Wyatt, you will understand soon" Annabelle said with a smile. A smile that might have seemed suspicious to Prince Wyatt if he wasn't busy trying to look away from the woman's exposed breast while doing his best to listen attentively to her words.

Regardless, the mischievous smirk was caught by someone else. Someone who had felt a shiver going down his spine the moment he remembered the cruel faces of his former persecutors.

"Excuse my interruption Miss Annabelle, but I think the Prince wants you to go straight to the point" For the first time since the conversation began, Mad John opened his lips and uttered a word.

His sentence drew the attention of both individuals, with Annabelle thinking about who the man standing beside Prince Wyatt reminded her of and Prince Wyatt loving the sensation of having someone speaking up your mind without even needing to tell them.

At this point, he wouldn't mind letting Mad John take full control of the ship while he focused on other things, but he still needed to learn things himself for future's sake.

Besides, the human mind is one of the most fickle things in existence so he still kept some degree of cautiousness in his presence.

"Ahem!! As I was saying, the lands beyond the Cryptic sea are cursed".

Prince Wyatt's brow rosed "Cursed" He repeated.

"Yes. It is cursed by what is known as the moonlight's ice. A terrible kind of phenomenon that freezes everything it touches" Annabelle agreed and responded.

"Everything? Does that also include everyone, both humans and animals?" Prince Wyatt said. A bad premonition suddenly boiled from within his gut.

"Unfortunately, yes. The ice has already covered the entirety of the land beyond the Sloywoth kingdom, Brylen Kingdom, the Houya kingdom, the Auziloth Kingdom, and the Eser Kingdom, except for the Vrymath Kingdom which is due to the protection of the Miracle queen"

"So you are saying that everywhere beyond this sea is covered in ice?" Prince Wyatt repeated "Except for one Kingdom which is somehow protected by a miracle queen".

Annabelle pursed her lips, thinking of how well she could explain the current situation of the Cryptic sea. Things were too complicated that if she started spewing out all she knew, the plan she had thought of might derail into something else.

The only bargaining chip she had now was his ignorance. So she won't be telling him anything else without a price. A price that might as well solidify her place among his crew.

She smiled. She couldn't help it. In just a short moment, she had just thought of a Plan, although it wasn't perfect, it still wasn't that bad.

"Yes, but no. Just like the other kingdoms, the Vrymath Kingdom is also covered in ice and snow but it is the only kingdom still standing and hasn't been corrupted by the glacier wasteland yet" She responded "And this is all because of the Miracle Queen that rules over the Vrymath Kingdom, because of her god's given ability to protect her and people from the -Moonlight's Ice"

"Though it isn't all that safe because she is still just a single human being. Nonetheless, she is the only pathway between the life and death of her people and the destruction and salvation of her Kingdom. So calling her the Miracle Queen isn't all too far fetched".

"Interesting" Prince Wyatt muttered as he rested his chin above his fingers.

He knew that he would sooner or later come around things that were beyond common understanding, but no matter how he was prepared for such an occurrence, he would still be astounded by what he has just heard.

An icy glacier that freezes everything and anyone it touches!

Now he knew why Captain Crimson eye resented Captain Clara's father for taking everything away from him and sending him to these frozen wastelands.

Although this was his territory, it wouldn't be a lie to say that there was nothing here to rule over here. The Captain's attitude, behaviour, and purpose of his plans were now very clear to him.

Beyond this sea was nothing but ice and snow! If that was it, then he would surely need help if he wanted to get his ship repaired.

Regardless…..

"And what if you are lyin...….?"

"I can assure you that I am not. You only need to get passed the Cryptic sea and see the truth for yourself".

"Okay. But instead of needing your help, I can just go and ask Captain Crimson eye for his help"

Annabelle grinned "And what makes you think that Captain Crimson eye would help you without asking for something in return" She replied "Did you forget that he is a Pirate? Don't mistake his hospitality as a sign of goodwill, Prince Wyatt, or else you might regret it".

"The only reason you are been treated like this is because of your status, nothing more, nothing less".

Immediately Prince Wyatt's face creased. The woman was right. He knew so too, and that was why he didn't want to let go of his title yet.

Hell, even if he wanted to, he would rather squeeze out all the benefits it came with before letting it go. But for now, embarrassments aside, it did him more good than harm, so there wasn't any need to think about such things now.

Turning his head, his gaze jammed Mad John's eyes and they each came to the same conclusion which resulted in Mad John sighing out in displeasure.
