"Listen up, everyone! I am the great Captain Dudin Wade, have you forgotten who the true master of the 'Queen' is?"
"Charlie! What are you standing there for, huh? Got bird shit in those damned eyes of yours, or did a woman smear them over last night? Blink, will you blink, damn it??"
Tap.
Suddenly.
All movements halted.
Tap, tap.
Crisp footsteps sounded out of nowhere on the deck of the Queen, and likewise into the ears of every crew member.
In an instant, for some reason, the chaotic Queen fell silent, an unsettling quiet.
The only one left chattering was Captain Dudin Wade, high above, still pointing at Charlie's nose.
Charlie's eyes were full of terror as he threw coquettish glances frantically behind Dudin Wade.
Tap, tap, tap.
"Shh, shh, shh——"
Charlie desperately made faces behind Dudin Wade, nearly squeezing blood from his eyes.
My respected Lord Dudin Wade, how could you be so oblivious!
The lowly Charlie is about to wet himself in fear!
At that moment.
