After healing the priestess, Chunhua went to inquire how they ended this way.
Her question also applied to them bonding with the halflings.
Did they decide to forget the past, be diverse and accept these halflings as lackeys into their pirate ranks?
After all, the greater the numbers the greater the strength!
But their answer completely deviated from her guesses.
"It was because of Thalassa. The one you said for me to be wary off. Not only did she snatch the King's body, she also kidnapped Shillo then said a few things about breaking the seal and sacrificing us…" Shivani regained her consciousness and explained. Her expression still had traces of disbelief and sadness.
They never knew the King they respected all along but was nothing but a fraud and the real one was long dead. They could not even give King Nephim a proper burial. They were careless and only have themselves to blame.
