326 Acquisition of Deep Forest Town (Part 1)

As the sun gradually rose and brought forth a new day, the pirates who for some reason had decided to wake up earlier instantly panicked upon seeing the bloodstains. Chaos ensued shortly. Instead of Saleen, Daniel stepped out of his tent and started to use his magic to hold the pirates back.

It dawned upon the remaining pirates that one should never treat the words of a mage lightly.
