74 Chapter 72 - Talking with Sheryll
Mongor slowly turned around, his head hung low making his hair hide his facial expression from other people.
Caldas saw his target turn to him and felt that his scheme is working.
"Just think about it, all of you may die if you return right now but..." Caldas took a long pause and looked around him.
"If you let us go and follow me then we can get the hell away from this island on my ship and we will rule the Caribbean sea sooner or later. There are many treasure chests on my ship, I can give all of it to you. And you my friend you can be the new captain of our ship." Caldas kept speaking.
Other party members nodded along with him while Sheryll kept silent.
"What did you say?" A cold voice interrupted Caldas.
Caldas looked at Mongor who finally opened his mouth.
Mongor at this time looked like a charged volcano just about to erupt. Veins on his hands popped up like they were gonna burst any second.
Mongor lifted up his head and stared at Caldas.
"You dare... YOU DARE TO INSTIGATE ME AGAINST MY CAPTAIN!!" Mongor shouted with red eyes filled with anger.
*BANG* *BANG*
"ARGHH GHAAA!"
Two gunshots and the scream of Caldas rang outside the castle.
"Turn his legs into a seive." Mongor ordered coldly while putting away his gun.
"Aye aye." Pirate answered with smirks on their faces while taking out their guns and aimed at Caldas's legs.
"No no wait, forg- gahh! Forgive me ahhh!" Caldas splattered the words quickly while enduring the pain.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
But the only thing that answered him was the sound of gunfire.
"AAAAHH STOP STOP ARGHHH"
Caldas fell down, his legs were connected to his body with only slight pieces of flesh and muscles here n there and it looked like they would completely disconnect with a slight pull.
"Take him to Captain quickly, I want him alive when he sees the captain." Mongor commanded and hurried towards the gate of the castle.
Pirates got hold of Caldas once again and followed Mongor.

Inside the castle....
Sally got up from Sheyan's lap and smiled seductively.
"My lord, I will do whatever you want, please follow me, I will take you to Caterly's treasury immediately." Sally spoke while bowing to Sheyan, showcasing her soft and bouncy boobs.
"Thank you dear." Sheyan replied with a smile.
*Click*
Door of the hall opened and a pirate walked in.
"Captain, Mongor is back with captives." Pirate bowed and spoke.
"Ohh that was quick, he deserves a reward, bring them here." Sheyan spoke with interest.
"Yes captain." Pirate replied and ran back.
After a little while, Mongor entered the hall with other pirates, captive contestants and a corpse.
After Caldas and others walked in they looked around the hall, they saw pirates all around the hall, each of them had a frightening black barreled gun in their hand and all of them were eyeing them like they were some piece of meat about to be chopped.
Finally their eyes fell on the man who was sitting on the main seat of the grandeur table in the middle of the hall.
Sheyan also eyed all the contestants and counted them.
"Hello my friends, let me introduce myself, I am Sheyan, a pirate." Sheyan got up and smiled at the contestants.
"Why did you bring us here?" Since Caldas wasn't in a condition to speak and Nick wasn't here, Skull the Black man who was also a trustee of Nick came up and asked tentatively.
"Oh, who might be this gentleman, are you the leader of this group?" Sheyan turned to Skull and asked with interest.
"No I am afraid not, our leader got killed by your man, that's his body." Skull replied and pointed at the dead body Mongor and others brought in.
"Hmm?" Sheyan cocked his eyebrow and looked at the corpse.
Mongor felt his heart come to his throat when he saw Sheyan's expression and quickly rushed forward and fell on his knees in front of Sheyan.
"I am terribly sorry sir, this is my fault, I fired at them to stop them from running, but blame my aim, I actually shot his head and he died." Mongor spoke with fear.
"Okay okay, calm down Mongor, it ain't a big deal." Sheyan spoke while looking at Mongor.
"Yes sir, please punish me, it's all my fault." Mongor didn't listen to Sheyan's words and thought he was being punished.
"Some one give him a slap and wake him up." Sheyan shook his head and spoke to the pirates standing around.
"Aye aye captain" Billy came up in a second, and slapped Mongor's cheek with excitement.
*PLAP*
Sound of slap rang in the hall and Mongor finally fell silent.
"Oooh, Billy you got some heavy hands." Sheyan exclaimed and spoke to Billy.
"How could I be light handed while following captain's orders." Billy answered with a big smile and stepped back.
"Are you awake now Mongor? Can you hear me or did Billy's slap turned you into a deaf Mongor?" Sheyan asked while looking at Mongor.
"Cap-captain?" Mongor looked at Sheyan with confusion.
"I said it ain't a big deal, I asked you to bring them alive just on whim, it wouldn't have mattered if all of them were dead as long as you brought their bodies." Sheyan spoke with a smile.
'Well, I asked to bring them alive since If these people saw that there is no chance to escape they might take a radical approach such as force return or dieing together. Even if items which can be used to initiate force return are very rare but you can never be so sure.' Sheyan thought to himself.
"Captain." Mongor looked at Sheyan with grateful eyes.
"Okay get back on your feet and stand back." Sheyan waved his hand.
"Cap- captain there is one more thing." Mongor didn't get up and spoke in a small voice.
"What else did you do?" Sheyan asked with a frown.
"Captain, we let one of their members escape, he- he used some mysterious means, first he hid inside some golden light cover and even the bullets of the guns captain gave us couldn't penetrate that cover then suddenly he disappeared in thin air." Mongor explained quickly.
"Hmm disappeared in thin air?" Sheyan repeated with a frown.
'Looks like someone really had the force return item and he even used it but it could be a teleportation item too.' Sheyan thought.
"Yes captain, Molly has gone with 50 members to search for that bastard around the island." Mongor spoke.
"Hmm okay, you stand back but learn from these mistakes, I don't want to hear about something like this again." Sheyan nodded and spoke lightly.
"Yes captain." Mongor replied happily and quickly got up and stood in attention.
Sheyan turned to contestants once again and used his S grade ability on the corpse to check the available loot.
{Madson (contestant no. 2020)}
{Loot drop rate: 679 utility points (100% drop rate), 6 potential points (100% drop rate), 9 achievement points, sling shot (100% drop rate), jumping shoes (100% drop rate), Dagger (100% drop rate), Flintlock pistol (100% drop rate).}
'Madson, and there is no innate ability at all.' Sheyan looked at the information and smiled.
'I really thought, Mongor managed to kill Nick the party leader, how could a party leader die so easily. Nick should be the one who disappeared in thin air by using the force return item or some teleportation item.' Sheyan thought to himself.
'No worries I will get him sooner or later.'
"So where were we?" Sheyan asked the black man.
"Your man killed our party leader." Skull replied.
"Oh yes, your party leader." Sheyan smiled.
"Sir, may I say something." A pleasant female voice spoke.
Sheyan looked over and saw a gorgeous paled face woman, she had brown hairs which were open and handing down, a pair of blue eyes shining lusterously with a glint of intelligence hidden beneath. Her hands were tied and she was breathing a little fast making her full nad plump chest heave up and down with each breath.
When Sheryll entered the hall and saw Sheyan, her perspective sense triggered once again. Telling her about the great danger this man could pose to her, a danger she has never felt and will never be able to deal with or hide from. But her perspective sense also told her that if she managed to negotiate and got on an understanding with this person then that could be the biggest fortune she would ever earn in this nightmare realm, and the charm Sheyan was excuding from all over his body didn't help much to the cause.
And that's why she stepped up to speak to this dangerous but exceedingly charming and handsome man.
"Oh my, how did I ignore such a fine lady up til now, please speak whatever you want to say madamme." Sheyan spoke with a smile.
"Thank you sir, my name is Sheryll, I joined this group when I came to the island because the leader of this group found me and threatened me in suggestive words. So I don't have any good feelings towards this group." Sheryll didn't take Sheyan's polite attitude to heart as she knew that it was all a facade and spoke calmly.
"Sheryll! What are you saying!?" Skull the black man asked loudly. He had a bad feeling about it.
*Click* *Click* *Click*
Sound of gun clocking rang all around the hall and skull and other party members felt a chill go down their spine, even the Caldas who was lying on the floor after taking a bleeding stopping medicine felt his heart beat almost coming to a halt.
"Captain doesn't like it when someone speaks loudly in front of him especially when he isn't allowed by the captain." Billy spoke coldly.
"Keep your voices down when you are in front of captain or we will turn you into a seive before captain says anything." Mongor also threatened coldly.
Sheyan looked at it and nodded in satisfaction.
'These guys aren't half bad, they really learn very quickly.' He thought.
"Okay, don't scare out guests, can't you see I am having a conversation with this gorgeous lady." Sheyan spoke with a smile.
"Sorry captain." Pirates replied and took back their guns.
"Please continue, miss Sheryll." Sheyan turned back to Sheryll.
"Ye- yes sir, so I wanted to inform you that the leader of our party is called Nick and he is the one who disappeared in thin air, while that corpse belongs to another member of this group, his name is Madson." Sheryll calmed herself quickly and continued.
"Ohh, thanks for your information miss Sheryll." Sheyan spoke with a smile, without any change of expression on his face.
Sheryll looked at his face and felt that the information she gave isn't any important to Sheyan.
"Looks like sir already knew about it, forgive me for not saying anything useful." Sheryll spoke.
"Ohh." Sheyan looked at Sheryll and felt amused.
'She seems smart but compared to her looks she is still lacking a little.' He thought.
"Well well, no need to feel down, miss Sheryll, it's not like you don't have a much more important information to tell me." Sheyan spoke with a smile.
Sheryll looked at Sheyan with confusion and asked.
"What do you mean sir?"
"The information about why you attacked Tortuga's castle." Sheyan replied.
Sheryll's eyes shone when she heard Sheyan's words and spoke. "So sir is interested in that information but I can't say anything about that in front of your subordinate sir, you should already know about that."
"Don't worry, we will have a private chat about that later." Sheyan replied.
Sheyan used his insight ability on Sheryll and other people.
And got all information about them, as long as his perspective sense is higher than other people he can get some information about them, and if his perspective much higher than others then he can get all the information about them.

'Except Sheryll and that guy with mutilated legs none of these guys got innate abilities. Really a mood breaker but this Sheryll is really a treasure, she got two innate abilities and both of them are B grade.' Sheyan thought after checking the information about all the contestants.
"So miss Sheryll can I ask you a question?" Sheyan turned to Sheryll once again.
"Yes sir please." Sheryll answered, she felt it when Sheyan used his innate ability on her but she didn't dare to voice out any objection or dare to resist.
"Well you said that you don't have any good feelings for this group, so you won't mind if I kill all of them right." Sheyan spoke with a smile.
