Chapter Seven: The Prince of a Dying Country
Saito was caught and imprisoned by the pirates It seemed like the Marie Galante's crew had helped to take over the shi+p
Since Saito's sword and Wardes and Louise's wands had been taken, they were allowed to keep their hands and feet
unrestrained Without their wands, h the same could not be said about Louise
In the background, one could see wine barrels, cereal sacks and gunpowder casks disorderly thrown around Heavy cannonballs were piled up in the corner of the room
Wardes explored the cargo with a great interest
Saito sat down in the corner of the hold, frowning because of the pain in his injured arm
Louise looked at Saito with a worried expression after seeing him in such a state
”What? Just as I thought, the injury hurts after all”
”It's nothing” Saito said snappishly
”It's not nothing - show ripped Saito's arm and tucked up clothes
”Kya”
It looked really awful The Masked Man's lightning spell had inflicted a severe injury going froetting worse; his shoulder was having awful convulsions
”Is that not awfully burnt?! Should I feel relieved now?!” Louise shouted She stood up and started knocking on the door
”Somebody! Somebody come!”
The guardian stood up
”Eh?”
”Water! Is there a e! There is an injured person! He needs to be healed!”
”There is no such person”
”Lies! It is so!”
Wardes, as taken aback, watched Louise’ duripped Louise's shoulder
”Be obedient You are the prisoner here”
”No! I won't, you are injured!”
”Stop saying that!” Saito shouted Louise cringed because of his threatening attitude, and her pupils started getting ht back the inco tears
”D-don't cry”
”I a There is no master ould cry in front of her familiar!”
Saito turned his face away
”I see”
”I would never cry in front of you”
Louise walked towards the other wall and sat down facing away fro Saito headed towards Wardes and tapped his shoulder
”Please comfort her”
”Why?”
”Aren't you Louise's fiancé?”
Wardes nodded and turned towards Louise, and hugged her shoulders froround, averting his eyes fro worse It was his own fault for stopping Louise fro him
It's a suitable punish like me
”My punishment doesn't hurt that much Uwaa-”
Hisas a fat man with a plate of soup entered
”Rice”
When Saito, as near the door, tried to take the plate of soup The man suddenly lifted the plate up
”Only after you have answered a few questions”
Louise, whose eyes looked puffy, stood up
”Ask”
”What business do you have in Albion?”
”Travelling” Louise said with a decisive voice, putting her hand on the waist
”Tristain's noble, ould you travel to Albion? Why would you be sightseeing in such place?”
”I do not have to tell you such things”
”Still pretending to be tough, despite being scared and crying?”
Louise turned her face away as the pirate started laughing She grabbed a plate with soup and water to throw at him, but
Saito took it from her
”Hey!”
”I cannot eat a soup made by such people!”
Louise turned her face away again
”It's not healthy to stay hungry”
When Wardes said so, Louise took the plate of soup with a pouting face
Three people ate the sah in normal circumstances that would never happen
Wardes leaned onto the ith a tired expression on his face
Louise tore up the sleeve of her shi+rt and soaked it in water, trying to cool down Saito's wound with it
”It's alright”
”It's not alright!” Louise stared firmly at Saito with her puffy eyes ”Because, you are my familiar, you have to listen what I tell you!”
Saito averted his face Louise, as treating his arm softly, looked up at him
”What is it?”
”You have more important duties to care about”
”I do, but an injury is also very important! Is that clear?!”
Saito kept on looking away, before noticing the barrels with gunpowder
”We could escape by using that”
”Eh?”
Louise suspiciously followed Saito's look Saito opened the barrel and filled the plate with gunpowder
Wardes muttered tiredly
”And where would you run? Only emptiness surrounds us”
Saito sat down again with a thump
”but, sitting like that and doing nothing”
At that tiain This ti before the eyes and asked
”Good evening, are you the aristocrats going to Albion?”
Louise did not answer
”Oi oi, judging froh we do not look like that we respect nobles, thanks to the aristocrats our business goes well”
”But, isn't this a warshi+p of rebels?”
”No no, though we are employed, we are involved in the fifty-fifty relationshi+p with both sides We are related to both factions So how is it? Are you nobles? If it is true, then you will be let go free in the closest port”
Saito felt relieved Since Louise was an aristocrat everything could be settled peacefully then Also, they would be taken to the closest port
Louise, however, did not nod her head in agree at the pirate's forehead instead
”How dare you have anything to do with those dirty rebels? Do not disregard Albion nobles I doovernment in Albion Because I am an aristocrat who comes here on behalf of Tristain, I am, in other words, an ambassador Therefore, I demand an ambassador's treatment from you”
Saito widely opened his mouth and muttered ”Are you an idiot?”
”Who are you calling an idiot? The idiot is you! Trying to act cool while being injured this badly!” Louise angrily turned to Saito and shouted
”But! You should choose the tihtforwardness better!”
”Shut up! You are my familiar and you should listen to what I say! Anyway, show your arm! Hey!”
The surprised Saito clasped his arm, while Louise tried to pull Saito's arm with a jerk
The pirate laughed after seeing such scene
”Honestly, you should stop doing that!”
”You're wrong, I can't let you get hurt so carelessly” Louise asserted
