98 Docking at the port of BHO HQ!

"Expert Brother! What are we going to do here?" Mathew asked as he and Talia felt relieved after seeing the port and the brick buildings.

"To recruit!"

"Recruit?" Mathew glanced at Pedro with a confused look.

"Yes. Recruit. We lack crew members."

"Players? If you needed manpower, you could have told me so earlier. I can ask my fellow~" Before Mathew could finish, Pedro interjected.

"Not players... NPCs." He smiled.

"NPCs?" Mathew frowned. He and Talia looked confused as they were not able to process what Pedro was thinking.

"Expert Brother... If I may..."

"Yes?"

"Uh... Won't it be better to hire Players than NPCs? I mean~"

"I know what you are thinking. But... I would say that I don't trust players. This was the reason why I chose NPCs over players. Don't worry, these NPCs are more capable than players. You'll see!"
