'Lord of Mysteries....Mother Tree....Amon...Klein Moretti.....Medici...Adam...Will Auceptin..
Fallen Mother...'
While he was looking a the crimson moon the man who was draging him stop and look at him.
"Ey get up quickly and go with your group so i don't have to deal with you anymore "
After he said that he finally begun to look around him and saw that they were in a type of dock he didn't even realize that they had come here.
'How long was i staring to the moon?'
With a cold sweat he inmediatly stop thinking about it because he knew with absolute despair that even the fact that he was alive when he regain conciusness in his cell was not short of a miracle.
After gettin up and reuniting with the rest of the slaves he tried to remember what had happened.
He could remember who he was...
His name was Joa Nahuel, 21 years old, studying to become an architect....lover of videogames and web novels.....
He was the eldest son of a family of 4-his little brother being 19 years old- it was a lovely family blessed with health and very united....But that was it,they weren't special just a normal family.
His favourite novel was by far "Lord of Mysteries"...
He was a symple guy so...why of all the novels he read he had to end in the one that just by knowing to much it would either directly kill you or there were gonna be a paranoid knocking at his door before he could even react.
While thinking and cursing in his heart he sudenly feel a gaze on him....
His entire body begun to tremble and he fell that his soul wanted to leave him...
Thankfully that gaze was just momentary just a quick one but he could feel it...
It didn't came from the guards neither that beyonder of the 'prisoner' path that gaze from a high place..... . . .
Before Joa could tried to guess who it was a big ship already came to the dock,it was a typical pirate one painted black but the paint was already very faded like it hardly recieve care or mantinience.
It has 8 canons on each side and the sail was of a bloody red.
If someone had asked him he would give it a 4/10 it could use some more canons...
Anyway, when he stopped criticizing, the ship docked and a man got out and approached the 'dirty guard'.
"Well it look like you got a good bunch this time" -his gaze quickly passed everyone before it stopped on him-"and a high one too".
With that said he look at the 'dirty guard' again
"Good job Tames if you keep this pace you'll be able to leave this place"
This visibly excited the 'dirty guard' named Tames and he soon bow low in front of the other.
"Thank you for your kind words Captain James i will bring a bigger group next time"-having said that moved and stood next to James and next Tames ordered in a loud voice.
"EVERYONE BOARD THE SHIP WE DON'T HAVE ALL NIGHT"-while he said that he grab an slave at the front and quickly throw him towards it.
With that everyone started boarding the ship and Joa took advantage of that an took a quick glance at the 'Captain' ,he was a man of a strong build with long grasy blonde hair with gray eyes that shine with desire with a black tuxedo.
Before he could take a longer look his chains were pulled hurrying him to move faster..
They took them to the bottom of the ship where there were cells prepared for them, only this time he was with the group, not alone.
When all the slaves were already chained to the walls, the ship left the dock and embarked to an uncertain destination.
In the darkness everyone was already sleeping the journey to reach the dock wasn't long but because of malnutrition they were just too exhausted.
Joa was the only one awake sitting against the wall looking at the others cursing about his own luck, then he leaned his head against the wall and closed his eyes to think about his current situation.
'With the way Tames acts and his aura i can guess that he should be a "prisoner" of the "Bound" pathway and James should also be one but im not sure of his sequence...what im sure is that only the Rose School has the formula for this path and is obvious they aren't from the Temperance faction...'
'Thanks to the information from the book i know that the Rose School isn't specially know for trading with slaves so the most likely scenario is that everyone in this floor are going to be use as a sacrifice to the Mother Tree.....'
'Shit i would have prefered that the Aurora Society were to ones to trade with me atleast i would have a chance to better plan my escape but now i only have two choices or i find a way to escape from this ship in the midle of the sea with no land in kilometers or i wait for us to dock and be sacrifice to Mother Tree'
....
....
....
.....
....
...
..
'Great'
With resignation he decided to put the escape plan to wait and to try and discover who was the previous owner of his body.
Taking the classic meditation position, he tried to empty his mind to allow the memories of the previous owner to enter.
....
After a couple of minutes he finally emptied his mind and begun to search for the owners memories.
Suddenly another burst of pain hit him again and the memories of this body began to flow, Joa was prepared this time for the pain so it didn't take it by surprise and as he gritted his teeth he began to remember.
The owner of this body was named Adryan Kenway, a citizen of the Feysac Empire who had come to Bayam to try to become a powerful pirate... it wasn't even a week before he provoked the wrong people and was kidnapped.
He was an orphan and never knew his parents, the only thing he still had of them was a necklace that looked like the tip of a crimson spear.
The lady that took care of him in the orphanage told him that it was the last thing his mother left him.
And even that was taken from him by 'Tames' when he gave him the beating of his life and then dragged him away to the cave where he woke up....
Joa could guess that 'Tames' took the beating too far and when he left him lying in the cell Adryan ended up dying from his injuries and he ended up occupying his body...
'What a poor and unlucky bastard"-was all Joa could say before leaving the meditation state.
Now lying on the dirty and wet floor, he looked up at the ceiling and tried to sleep, he could feel the tiredness of the day and it also seemed like he was getting his memories back, it took more than he could guess.
Before he knew it, he had already fallen asleep and the world of dreams opened its arms to tuck him in.
