“What? Attacked by pirates?”
“I’ else I can say”
Milton was shocked by the report
Max had enthusiastically set out to accoiven to hi shi+ps and crewinforht be needed Once all of that had been coe himself This amount of effort had been the direct result of his loyalty
And so, on the first voyage attedom and made contact with seven merchant companies With this, even if it wasn’t an exclusive trade with Waterport Kingdoinally wanted, it could still be considered a successful e But even after that, Max had dom and expanded the business andto create aa branch be located in Gloucester Kingdooing se On their way back frodom, Max’s shi+p had been attacked by pirates Not only had they plundered all the goods and the e And…
“Those bastards said that if ant to get our Chief Adold as ransorip crushed the corner of the table
“So you’re saying that’s what those scu?”
“Yes, Marquis”
“Those XX sons of bches…”
Milton’s head seeer as he burst out of his seat and shouted
“Getpirates a lesson!”
Milton was detero out to sea
“Captain, that Marquis said he’ll pay the ransoood Should we just change our route to here?”
Red Beard, the captain of the Red Pirates laughed out loud
Red Beard, he was originally a pirate as active in the Southern part of the continent But, once he heard that there was a lot of trading going on in the Western coast of the continent, Red Beard had quickly made his way over
He had his et would coet of the rumor had arrived at port With faet in the oods on it He had wanted to kill all the people on the shi+p in order to get rid of witnesses However, one of the targets spoke up…
“Wait, instead of killing me, it’d be better to demand ransom froht it was bullshi+t, but the more he listened, the more it seemed plausible
“I am Max, the Chief Adet a single silver coin, but if you keep me alive, My Lord will pay the ransohed it off
“How hilarious A noble paying ransoold”
Max flatly interrupted Red Beard
20,000 gold was a lot ofhim turned silent
“Why not at least try? It’s not like you would lose anything”
All of a sudden, Max had taken control of the conversation and was teold? It won’t hurt to try”
Max clenched his fist the moment Red Beard said this
‘He’s hooked’
It had been the worst possible scenario the moment the pirates had attacked, but he couldn’t die like this Max still wanted to use and expand his talents in this world That hy he had told the pirates about the ransom and persuaded them to keep him alive
He had used 20,000 as bait but, would Milton actually pay that ranso The i e one of Milton’s men This was Max’s trick
‘Once My Lord comes, those pirates won’t even be a probleend of invincibility during the war against the Republicans
Although Max didn’t know much about war, he was certain that the pirates would be annihilated the moment Milton arrived So, it didn’tas he was able to create a hostage situation This was the plan Max thought up on the spot But…
“Captain, no!”
Suddenly, one man appeared and tried to snuff out Max’s plan
“Squid, what?”
The man nicknamed Squid was skinny and had small eyes He was so skinny that he was al at him, it was difficult to believe that he was a pirate
He replied while staring at Max
“That punk is trying to play a trick on us, Captain He’s trying anything to live”
“Huh? Of course he is So what? It doesn’t ht?”
“But we’re not even sure if they’ll pay the ransoold just for a commoner? It’s definitely a trick, Captain”
“You think?”
At Squid’s word, Red Beard see hiently shouted
“He’ll definitely pay it! My Lord really thinks highly of old a bit too much? It’s not like we’ve captured a beautiful wo to get suspicious, Max unwittingly yelled
“My… My Lord loves me”
“What?”
“His… his preferences lean in that direction…”
In life, there are moments when you just spout nonsense That day seemed to be today for Max
‘da that there was no way they would believe the nonsense he just said, Max was disheartened
“Hm… I see I heard there were noblemen ere like that before”
But it seeht it could be true
“Fine We’ll keep you alive”
“Captain! I’ a trick on us! Urk!”
Smack!
As Squid continued to cole punch
