89 Chapter 87 - More contestants and spineless old man

The room fell into complete silence for a moment.

"You damn pirate!" Suddenly a voice filled with majesty broke this silence. A soldier who was wearing a better-looking uniform than other soldiers walked forward and stood in front of Sheyan.

"You think this is a place where you pirates can run amok!!" The soldier continued.

At this moment, Mongor and the other pirates also entered the room from the broken wall and glared at the angry soldier.

*Swish*

They took out their mini Uzis and aimed them at the Soldiers.

"Our captain doesn't like it when people shout in front of him." Mongor spoke in an angry tone.

The angry soldier backed off a step in surprise while the other soldiers in the room quickly aimed their own muskets at the pirates.

Among these muskets were some guns not belonging to this era, like AK-47, scar-l, and Beretta M9A3. Which revealed the identity of these gun holders.

Sheyan noticed the guns right away and looked at the contestants who were holding these guns. The old man came out of the shock at this time and controlled his undeads to protect him, while he quickly opened his pouch to take out more strange voodoo dolls.

But this time, Sheyan didn't give him the chance. Sheyan glanced at the old man with his onyx black eyes calmly when suddenly his eyes sharpened like an eagle, and his body radiated a terrifying pressure that fell on all the people present in the room except the pirates and the undeads.

*BOOOM*

Before the soldiers could say anything, most of them rolled their eyes behind their heads and fell down on the floor. Some managed to stay conscious but knelt down because of the huge pressure bombarding their souls and minds.

The contestants didn't fall unconscious because of the nightmare realm's protection instead they fell in a stunned state for 30 seconds and a fear state for 3 minutes.

The old man also managed to stay conscious because of his high intelligence and spirit stats but became unable to move his body from the shock.

Sheyan glanced at the old man fallen on his knees while clutching the voodoo dolls tightly in his hands and controlled his invisible hands to approach the old man, the invisible hands snatched the pouch and voodoo dolls from the old man and Sheyan stored them inside his spatial storage directly.

Next, Sheyan looked at the contestants who were in a stunned state. There were a total of five contestants among these soldiers, three of them were already identified by Sheyan due to the guns while the other two were found out due to them falling in a stunned state instead of kneeling down or falling unconscious like the rest of the people.

There were three males and two females in this group. Two African males, a Caucasian male, a Russian female, and an Asian female.

'What should I do with these guys, should I kill them like the rest of the contestants... Well, let's see if they are willing to surrender, they might have some useful information, anyways I am not short on points.' Sheyan thought and decided to let the contestants live for now.

"Who- who are you!" The old man finally managed to catch his breath and asked while looking at Sheyan with fear.

"The man who will be the pirate king." Sheyan looked at the old man and replied with a smile. "But for now you can call me father, hehehe."

The old man didn't know how to reply to Sheyan's words and fell into silence once again, he never imagined that this yellow-faced brat he looked down on would be someone so strong and scary.

"Ahem, sir, please forgive me for my previous rudeness, how about we give 50 no 60% of our wealth and you let us go? Please." The soldier who was shouting previously interjected at this time and spoke in a humble tone.

"But after all of you are dead, I would get 100% of your treasures isn't that right?" Sheyan replied to the soldier in a friendly voice.

"Sir, consider it again please, I can go back and request the empire to award sire with a lordship title along with many other riches." The soldier continued.

Sheyan was going to tease the soldier a bit more when out of the blue, his Nightmare imprint sent him a notification.

[ Contestant no. 2004 is requesting for a communication. ]

A/N: some of you might have forgotten, it's Sheryll's serial no.

Sheyan glanced at the notification and accepted the communication request.

[ Sir, some unknown contestants just appeared near us, they are requesting an audience with you. ]

Sheryll's voice sounded in Sheyan's mind.

[ Hmm? What do they want? ] Sheyan asked through his nightmare realm.

[ They said they want to meet you for a deal. ] Sheryll replied.

[ What deal? ]

[ They said their party leader will brief you about the details if you agree for a meeting. ]

[ Ask them who is their party leader. ]

[ They said it's someone called Zi. ]

[ Zi.. Tell them I agree to this meeting, and ask them to visit us after this historic battle scenario has ended. ]

[ Yes sir. ] Sheryll replied and ended the communication.

'Zi... The female lead, yeah she was also in this world at this point of time with her party members. They should be coming to me for the Fokke family members. Well, it's good, I want to meet the female lead too after all.' Sheyan thought after ending the communication with Sheryll.

Sheyan came out of his thoughts and looked at the kneeling soldiers and the contestants who had come out of their stunned states.

"Well, let's end this quickly, I don't want to waste too much time here, kill everyone except those five people who are still standing and that oldy." Sheyan ordered the pirates.

"Wait!" The leader soldier exclaimed loudly.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

But only the sound of bullets being fired greeted him before he turned into a bloody sieve.

Pirates didn't hesitate at all after receiving Sheyan's order and fired at the soldiers directly.

Other soldiers tried to resist the imminent death, but in front of the massive difference in types of equipment, they managed to hold on only for a minute before falling down into their own pool of blood.

The contestants heard the words Sheyan spoke to the pirates, so after communicating with each other through their nightmare imprint they decided to stay still and wait for the result.

The old man also decided to stay still, his pouch and the voodoo dolls were snatched already and without them, his normal decaying Undeads didn't pose any threats to Sheyan at all, his best choice was to stay silent and wait for his outcome, anyways the death of these soldiers didn't affect him since he already got his payment from the merchants beforehand.

After the body of the final soldier fell down along with other bodies, the pirates finally stopped firing and stood behind Sheyan once again.

Sheyan nodded in satisfaction before looking towards the contestants.

"Do you want to live or die?" Sheyan asked.

"Of course we want to live." The Caucasian male quickly replied while the rest of them nodded in agreement to his words.

"Good, then come and stand behind me, I have some questions which we will discuss about later on." Sheyan smiled and gestured the contestants to stand behind him.

The contestants quickly went behind Sheyan and stood attentively.

The pirates looked at these guys with curiosity and alertness but didn't say anything since they were recruited by their captain.

Now let's deal with you oldy." Sheyan finally turned to the old man once again.

A solemn expression appeared on the old man's tree bark-like face, he slowly stood up and looked at Sheyan seriously.

Sheyan looked at him with curiosity, wondering what he would do now.

The old man controlled the decaying Undeads to part a way for him and he walked towards Sheyan with a solemn face.

The pirates tightened their grips and stood alertly behind Sheyan.

*Tap* *tap* *tap*

The old man stopped after he was only 2 meters away from Sheyan.

"You got some other ways to deal with me oldy? Let me see." Sheyan broke the strange atmosphere.

*PLOP!*

Suddenly the old man fell on his knees as tears and snot appeared on his face.

"Father! Father, I was wrong, don't kill me please." The old man cried while joining his hands together in a praying manner.

"Fuck!" The contestants exclaimed.

"FUCK!" The pirates exclaimed.

"..." Sheyan was too stunned to speak.

"Father, I will be your slave. I will be a good slave." The old man continued.

Sheyan's lips twitched with speechless.

Suddenly his nightmare imprint rang and a long list of notifications appeared in front of him.

[ You have cornered the Black magician Baron Dorky, and now he is requesting to be your slave. ]

[ During your paused duration of the nightmare realm and world, a servant will continuously consume your utility points as wages, it will not take into account of your return to the present world. The higher the rank of the servant, the more utility points he/she will consume. ]

[ Your servant is a mage type, upon death his loyalty degree will drop by 10 points. He may drop by 1-2 ranks according to the situation but can be resurrected with an amount of utility points. The amount of utility points is based on the rank of the servant and has a direct link to the types of equipment he is wearing. ]

[ If a servant's loyalty degree drops to a defecting level when he dies, then he will become unable to resurrect. ]

[ Your current charm is 35 points, once your servant's loyalty degree drops below 30 points he will exhibit slacking behavior. Once it drops beneath 10 points, there is a possibility of defection. ]

[ Note: Acquiring a servant is an extremely rare thing, please cherish this opportunity. ]

[ Do you wish to accept this named servant? Yes / No? ]

'Hmm, oh right, there was this feature in ultimate evolution, Sheyan managed to get two slaves during his adventures. The first one was some mob pirate who died in this world while the other was that mysterious goblin he got in Harry Potter World. So what I do with this spineless oldy.' Sheyan thought as he read the notifications sent by Nightmare Realm.

'Well, his stats ain't bad and his Voodoo doll creation and decaying dead-making skills can increase my overall strength once again.' Sheyan pondered for a second and clicked on yes.

[ Warning: Your servant's loyalty degree is 35 points, it is close to the danger zone. ]

[ Warning: Your servant's loyalty degree is 35 points, it is close to the danger zone. ]

Sheyan glared at the old man after receiving the warning.

"You don't seem completely willing to be a slave though." Sheyan spoke lightly.

The old man flinched in fear and quickly prostrated and spoke solemnly.

"I Bagon Dorky, take an Ooth in the witness of the vast sea that from now I shall willingly follow you, my lord, til death takes me away."

[ Your servant's loyalty has increased to 70 points. ]

[ Your servant's loyalty has increased to 90 points. ]

Along with the words from the old man's mouth, the loyalty degree increased and Sheyan received the notification from Nightmare imprint.

"Hahaha good, you won't regret this decision oldy." Sheyan finally smiled and said to the old man.

"Yes, my lord." The old man replied without getting up.

"Get up and follow behind me along with others." Sheyan spoke.

The old man got up from the ground and stood behind Sheyan along with his undeads and the other members of Sheyan's crew.

"Now, let's go and loot this ship as quickly as we can. After this, we still have to go and loot other merchant ships." Sheyan spoke.

"Aye aye, captain!" Pirate cheered.

"Sir, we know about the location of treasures." The Caucasian male spoke at this time.

"Ohh, that's good, take us there." Sheyan replied.

"Yes sir, but sir I have a small request, it doesn't matter if you reject it though." The Caucasian male spoke again after getting the glances from his party members.

"Hmm, what is it?" Sheyan asked.

"Umm, as you know, we also have a mission, and our rating will be affected now since you defeated us. If you help us kill or defeat some small pirates from other pirate groups we will be very grateful sir, and we know about the location of treasure storage on other merchant ships too, knowing this information can save you a lot of time." The Caucasian male continued.

"Okay, no problem." Sheyan agreed, he was going to deal with some pirates anyway.

"Thank you sir thank you." The Caucasian guy and others showed a happy smile and thanked Sheyan.

After they saw Sheyan's strength, they already gave up hope to complete their mission and were even ready to die, but now with Sheyan's agreement to help them, the hope appeared once again.

"Okay let's not waste time here anymore, you lead the way." Sheyan spoke and pointed to the Caucasian guy.

"Yes sir." The guy replied and came to the front for leading the way.
