Chapter 191 - Chapter 191 Ordering A Ship

As Morgan left Thomas continued to sit there and stare off out across the sea as he mumbled "He has a point, but killing them still doesn't feel justified." As he sat there Poppy and Ceil walked up to him and said "Its been a while since we've seen you so we came to search for you." Thomas glanced at them and said "I don't think I blocked any of those memories." Poppy stared at Thomas and said "Yes I'm aware you didn't block them, that's actually why we came to search for you." Thomas glanced back out at the ocean and said "Then your already aware that I've become a pirate king and murdered more people?" Poppy nodded and said "Yes however in this situation you probably could've avoided those casualties." Poppy walked towards Thomas and sat beside him as she said "However I am surprised that you hesitate so much, even though you kill so often." Thomas stared at Poppy and said "It's not that I want to kill them, but things will just happen faster if I do." Ceil sat down beside Thomas and said "If your not happy with killing you should just swear you'll never do it again." Thomas stared at her and said "Even if I'm just swearing to myself it means nothing unless I really never kill again, but there's always gonna be a time where killing might be the only option." Poppy walked towards Thomas and said "Even if you kill hundreds I'll still be right here by your side." Thomas stared at her for a moment and said "I suppose your right I still have other things to worry about right now anyway." As Thomas stood up and began to walk away he said "We should have a boat we can get a free trip on in a little while." Thomas glanced at them and said "If you'd like we can leave in an hour or two and make it to SeaPoint overnight." Ceil stared at him and said "I suppose we can ask the others but why don't we stay a little longer." Thomas stared at her and said "We don't have to we could stay a while longer." As Thomas turned around he seen Alexander standing there breathing heavily as he said "I found a large ship, it should be good enough to sail the sea." Thomas walked towards him and said "Alright just lead me to it." As Alexander lead Thomas to the ship Ceil and Poppy followed him. Once they entered the shop Thomas glanced behind him at Ceil and Poppy and said "You didn't have to follow us." Ceil stared at Thomas and said "Sorry we're just worried a little." Thomas stared at her for a moment and asked "What for?" Ceil sighed and said "It seems like your not gonna understand unless we tell you." Poppy pointed at Thomas and said "Your a pirate king now." Thomas stared at her and said "Yeah I am." Ceil stared at him and said "They're not gonna like a demi human being a pirate king." Thomas glanced back at Alexander and asked "Did I just make myself more hate able?" Alexander nodded and said "Unfortunately yes, however since your a pirate king I'm sure you'll be able to find a crew that doesn't hate you." Thomas flinched and said "Wait seriously I thought this would have the opposite effect." Alexander nodded and said "I wouldn't be surprised if the people in this town tried to kill you in your sleep." Thomas continued to stare at him as he mumbled "Why wasn't I warned about this." As a man walked up to them he asked "Were you the man who wanted that one ship?" Alexander nodded and said "That's right I'm gonna be the the new pirate king's right hand man." Thomas stared at Alexander and mumbled "Right hand man?" The man stared at Thomas and said "So you must be the new pirate king correct?" Thomas stared at him and nodded as he said "Yeah, unfortunately I wasn't aware that people would hate me being in the position." The man walked towards Thomas and said "It's not always a bad thing, think of it this way your the first demi human pirate king." The man smiled and said "And you'll be the very first pirate king I'd ever build or sell a ship to." Thomas stared at him confused and said "Build?" The man nodded and said "Well of course, I don't just sell them I can make them to your exact specifications." Thomas glanced at Alexander and said "Building a ship from scratch will probably take a while." Alexander stared at Thomas and said "But if you build one from scratch you can make it as big and as sturdy as you want." Thomas stared at the man and said "Guess we aren't gonna buy that other ship." The man smiled and said "Then tell me what you want." Thomas shrugged and said "Probably a decently sized ship that's pretty sturdy." Alexander stared at the man and said "After building this boat your shop will gain a lot of fame." The man smiled and said "Of course, and I suspect you'll be paying for this now?" Thomas held his hand facing up in front of him and asked "How much is it?" The man stared at Thomas and said "Building a ship from scratch is gonna be a little pricey but I should be able to do it with around thirty five gold." As a pouch appeared in Thomas's hand he tossed it to the man and said "Its all there, feel free to count it." Poppy stared at Thomas and asked "That wouldn't happen to be the other pirate king's treasure, would it?" Thomas glanced at her and said "Yeah there was quite a lot but I don't actually know how much there is exactly but it should be a decent amount." The man opened the pouch and peered inside as he said "It's a pleasure doing business with you." Ceil stared at the man and asked "When will it be done?" The man glanced at her and said "Maybe a month or two." Thomas sighed and said "Looks like we're staying here a while." As the man walked away he stared at Thomas and said "You seem pretty capable, why don't try taking on the nearby dungeon, do be warned though many have died." Poppy stared at Thomas and said "If your gonna go you should go with the others." Thomas stared at her blankly without saying a thing as she said "Never mind your probably gonna go to sleep." Ceil stared at Thomas and said "Before I forget I made a talisman that weighs about a thousand pounds." Ceil places the talisman on him and said "There that should be fine." Alexander stared at Thomas and asked "Are you serious?" Thomas glanced at him and asked "About what?" The man pointed at Thomas and said "That talisman, does it really weigh one thousand pounds?" Ceil stared at him and nodded as she said "Creating these takes a while but they have been helping him to get stronger." Alexander took a step back and stood up straight as he said "No wonder you came out of that ship unharmed." Thomas stared at him and said "Actually I got lost on the ship and the captain went to the deck while I tried to figure out where I was." Ceil stared at Thomas and said "Then you could've been killed?" Thomas stared at her and nodded as he said "Probably." Thomas smiled and said "He was cool about it though and even let me keep the treasure." As Thomas began to walk away he said "If you ask me I just got lucky." Ceil glanced at Poppy and asked "Do you think he really means that?" Poppy nodded and said "He probably does believe it's all luck." Alexander stared at them silently as they glanced at him and asked "What are you staring at?" Alexander pointed at them and asked "What are you guys to the captain?" Ceil stared at him and said "Well I guess we're all a team." Poppy stared at Ceil and said "Yeah we're all on an adventure right now." As they walked out of the building they seen Thomas walk into a bar. As they followed him in they seen him hand the bar tender a few gold coins as he said "It may not make up for it but please consider this an apology for earlier." The man held the gold coins and asked "Are you serious?" Thomas nodded and said "Of course, if you think about it it was partly my fault." As Thomas walked away he said "Well that's all I had to say, see you later." As he walked out Ceil stared at him and said "For a moment I thought you were gonna drink away your problems." Thomas stared at her for a moment and asked "Are you trying to say I have a drinking problem?" Ceil shook her head and said "No, but we'd all prefer that you didn't get wasted." Thomas stared at her and said "Okay then I'll lay off the alcohol for a while." Ceil grinned and nodded as she "Thats good to hear."
