Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Novel

Chapter 902: A new guest

"We would be drinking all night long! I won't accept any excuses!" the Pirate exclaimed, leading Karyk and Gabriel towards the pirate ship. As they boarded the ship, the atmosphere was lively, filled with rowdy laughter and the smell of alcohol. Pirates of all shapes and sizes were gathered, celebrating their recent victories and plundered treasures.

It was clear that the ship hadn't cfrom the main base directly. Instead, they were also returning to the main base after plundering another ship when they saw the signal. They were also in a very good mood because they had managed to rob a lot of treasures this time. The Pirate Captain stood at the helm of the ship, overseeing the festivities. His booming voice echoed across the deck as he addressed the crew. "Welcback! Master would be really happy to find out that you've returned."

"And since you're back, I'm sure you found something important to report?" he further asked. But soon he realized that he might have asked more than he was allowed. Only their master was supposed to know such things. The more people knew about it, the riskier it became.

If only these two knew about it, then even if their master wanted to silence people, he was going to kill only these two. But if the others knew about it and the master found out, the others could be at risk as well. "There's no need to talk! Tonight, we are going to celebrate your return! It shall be a celebration like never before!" The Captain of the ship quickly changed the topic. He raised the bottle of alcohol, welcoming the guests. The crew cheered in response, raising their tankards and shouting in excitement. Karyk and Gabriel exchanged glances, realizing that their plan to infiltrate the pirate organization was off to a promising start. These people weren't asking any questions. It was clear that they were more scared of the answers that they might receive than anything else. As the night went on, Karyk and Gabriel found themselves engrossed in conversations with various pirates, understanding more about the current situation at their base. They listened carefully, gathering information about the pirates' activities, alliances, and their leader, the enigmatic Sea King. It seemed that the Sea King's power and influence extended far beyond what they had initially anticipated. It was especially the case for the people he had gathered. It was well known that the Sea King was strong, but they just found out that he wasn't the only person who was strong. In recent weeks, another person had arrived at Pirate Island who was said to be just as strong as the Pirate King. The Sea King called that person a friend. But no one knew about the identity of that person. The only thing they were certain about was that the person wasn't a part of the Elzeiran Empire. Hearing about that person, Karyk was really curious about who it could be. He had a good intelligence network but even he didn't know of a person who was as strong as the Sea King while not being a part of the Elzeiran Empire Royal Army. The only person he could think of was the Puppet Master. But he didn't believe that the Puppet Master was going to work with the Sea King. He wondered if that new guest was going to spoil their plans. He also managed to learn another thing worth interest. It was said that the Sea King wasn't even on the Pirate Island. He had left the Ocean Region. As for where he went, no one knew for certain. Ssaid he went to take a dragon. Others said he went to kidnap sgreat Generals from the Elzeiran Empire. There were also rumors that said that he went to the City of Ember which was quite chaotic during recent times. In between the revelry, Karyk noticed a pirate who seemed more observant than the others. His sharp eyes and composed demeanor stood out amidst the chaos. Intrigued, Karyk decided to strike up a conversation with him.

"Quite the celebration, isn't it?" Karyk remarked, nodding towards the rowdy crowd.

The observant pirate glanced at Karyk, a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "Indeed, it is. But celebrations can sometimes be a smokescreen for hidden motives and secrets. Careful who you trust in this world, my friend." Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on ɴoᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt Read Web s Online Free - Fire Fire -

Karyk couldn't help but feel as if the man before him was not actually a Pirate. He looked more as if he was trying to fit in. There wasn't much suspicion in his eyes so it was clear that he didn't doubt his identity. But still something was odd about him. He was clearly new to this ship. Karyk's interest was piqued. "You seem to have a keen eye for details. I take it you've been with the pirates for a while?"

The observant pirate nodded, his expression becoming more serious. "You should run. I don't know what that man sent you to do, but I am sure he will kill you the moment he gets what he wants from you."

Karyk and Gabriel exchanged a knowing glance. This observant pirate could be their ticket to uncover the secrets of the Sea King and the temple. He also appeared to know more than met the eye, especially about the mission in another world. They had to gain his trust and delve deeper into the mysteries that surrounded them.

As the night wore on, the observant pirate revealed himself to be named Roderick. He was an orphan who had recently joined the Pirates. He wasn't strong, but he was a wise person. Even though he joined only recently, he had managed to make a place for himself. He didn't have loyalty toward the pirates, but he still stayed with them. A person as cunning as him was trying to get close to them. Karyk had a feeling that there was something he wanted from them. He had a purpose in revealing his flaws.
