Chapter 274: Karims past (b) (2/2)
”You've good eyesight.”
Elliot's words confirmed that that was what he just used to destroy the picture.
”Join my crew!” Karim wanted him, now for sure. ”This time, I am looking for people who are strong and as talented as me in their own fields! Although I only have a navigator and me, my crew is still better than ten thousand others. I am super strong. And my navigator is also one of the best drivers in the universe, which I can confidently say. With someone as talented as you onboard, we can aim to become the best!”
”No, I am not interested in boarding someone else's ship,” Elliot said, quelling Karim's excitement in an instant.
Even if Elliot wanted to become a space pirate, he would not join another crew but make his own!
”Don't be in a hurry to refuse.” Karim said, ”Give me an answer the next time we meet.”
Elliot replied, ”We probably won't be meeting again, and even if we did, it would be after a very long time.”
The only thing they would be doing was contacting each other's from worlds apart and sharing information. There was no need to make such a good relationship even more stronger; at least, Elliot didn't feel the need to get closer to Karim.
”I don't think that will happen! I will head straight to you after leaving this place.” Karim said I hope you've a better answer ready by the time I come to pick you up.”
Elliot: What if I still say ”no”?
”I will threaten or even coerce you into joining me.”
”You sure about that?” Elliot gave him a threatening look that chilled him to the bones. But Karim, in the end, was a Sublime Emperor. So, he didn't tremble and immediately calmed down. He thought to himself that it would be pretty shameful to feel fear from the gaze of a person who wasn't even an emperor!!
He could tell that Elliot wasn't an emperor or even a king because he couldn't sense his kingdom!
Karim said, ”hah, hah, hah, don't look at me like that; I am a pirate after all. Doing and saying evil things is my forte.”
Elliot didn't have much to say, so he stood up and went out of the second floor.
”Wait, where are you going?”
Karim chased after him and asked why he was in such a hurry.
”Back to my world.”
Elliot got what he came here for, so it was time to return home.
”At least tell me where it is?” Karim blocked his oath and asked.
”It's up to you to find out, Mr. Most Infamous Pirate!” Elliot said as he slipped past Karim.
”Ah, what a cheeky bastard.” Karim said, ”With him on board, life would be more fun!”
Elliot had already walked up to the librarian by then.
