"That"s enough Faunia. We might not be able to collect those are way too far!" Pedro shook his head as he stores back the stones on the sh.o.r.e."Hmph!" Faunia crossed her arms as she can only obey Pedro"s command.
"Why don"t you go and get the bags of the dead bodies furthest from us, and burn their dead bodies, to leave no "evidence". " He scratched his head as he looked troubled while staring in the forest.
"Tsk! Human! You"re so troublesome!"
"It"s no trouble at all... Later on, you"ll see that hard work pays off!" Pedro smirked as Faunia looked at him with an irritated look. After making a few steps forward, Faunia vanished into thin air.
"G.o.ds... Their strength is unfathomable. I can only consider my self lucky escaping death from her hands. and... being able to place her under my control..." Pedro shook his head as he ran back to the forest to collect the bags of the players killed by Faunia.
"I must not let my guard down! Faunia is not around me..." Pedro became cautious as he gets the bags.
Minutes later, Faunia and Pedro meet in the sh.o.r.e after all the bags has been taken and the dead bodies were burned. They rode the boat to the Karakoa.
...
Earlier, when Pedro sent the last batch of players to Karakoa, he called everyone (his crew) to the deck near his boat.
"Captain!" The NPC Crew that was left salutes to Pedro in a respectful manner. Pedro"s mother, father, and aunt, Sabrina and the rest of his "group" was astounded to the NPC"s actions. As for Talia and Mathew, they wore a frown as they stare at Pedro as if saying, "Captain? Him? This s.h.i.+p?".
"Cap... tain?" Loren was astounded and filled with disbelief as she stares to Pedro.
"Ehm... I"ll explain things later. For now, we need to prepare for our departure! First of all, I"d like to thank Shervan Jen Stelis, Kroven Tuf Stelis, and the all other crews who decided to stay with me and continue the crusade of the former Captain and her crew!" Pedro scratched his head as he started briefing everyone.
"It"s our honor, to be part of your crew!" Shervan Jen Stelis and Kroven Tuf Stelis bowed slightly in response to Pedro.
"Very well! Any updates on Raphael?" Pedro asked that confused the players with him.
"No need to worry Captain! Raphael is below us! We just need half an hour to attach it back to Karakoa." Shervan Jen Stelis, the older looking man, with gla.s.ses and a body built like a football player reported to Pedro.
"Then... I"ll proceed to a.s.sign crews to each s.h.i.+p. Shervan, you"ll lead half of the crew and will be a.s.signed with me in the Karakoa. As for Kroven, you"ll lead the other half and be a.s.signed to Raphael." Pedro stopped momentarily as he caught a glance to the players in the side, watching the events.
"As for you guys, Mom, Dad, Sabrina, and Loren would be with me in Karakoa. As for the rest, you"d be in Raphael. Brother Aldo! I"ll a.s.sign you as the sub-commander and be the captain of Raphael." Pedro smirked as he walked towards Aldo. Upon reaching Aldo, Pedro patted Aldo"s shoulder as he entrusts Raphael (Senior Alivia"s s.h.i.+p) to Aldo.
"But..." Aldo tried to reason out, however, Pedro spoke before he can continue.
"You don"t need to be worried, brother killer smile would be with you! He would be your second in command and my third sub-commander!" Pedro s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Mathew who was still unable to process what is happening.
"Me? Third sub-commander?" Mathew pointed his hand to himself out of astonishment.
"Yes! I believe in your talent so don"t fail me!" Pedro smirked.
"Expert brother thinks too highly of my skill, haha!" Mathew Forced a smile to Pedro as he nodded in response.
*Clap! Clap!
"The same goes for everyone! Shervan, Kroven, Brief them of the information they need to know about the s.h.i.+ps. I"d wrap somethings up back there. When I return, we"ll depart immediately to BHO HQ!" Pedro turned around and went back to his boat.
"Yes, Captain!" The NPCs shouted as they started to do their task. Shervan and Kroven approached the MPC, Main Player Crew, consisted of Sabrina, Loren, Aldo, Beatrice, Charlotte, Ashley, Mathew, Talia, and his Aunt. His mom and dad were part of it, but they were mainly playing just to see Pedro. Sabrina looked at the departing figure of Pedro as if she wanted to join him back to the sh.o.r.e.
...
"You have killed many humans! It"s surprising that you"re not turning into a demon yet!" Pedro mocked Faunia to break the awkward silence between them as the boat heads back to Karakoa.
"Heh, human, are you dumb or playing dumb?!" Faunia responded with a frown.

"Eh?"
"You"re dumb! Haha, We, G.o.ds and G.o.ddess, only became demons, once we succ.u.mb to dark magical energy to attain power and go against other G.o.ds and G.o.ddess... or... if our actions threaten the existence of this world! Other than that... we are free to do what we want. That includes eating lowly beings, like humans!"
"Hmmm..." Pedro rubbed his chin as Faunia explained new information to him.
"Human! It may seem weird to you but, do humans eat birds? vegetables? Yes? The same to G.o.ds and G.o.ddess, Humans are just like birds to us!"
"Then, A human eating a G.o.ddess... I am the first one?" Pedro smirked to the serious-looking Faunia.
"Tsk! Without your inherited demonic powers, you are nothing!" Faunia s.h.i.+fted her glance to the s.h.i.+p.
"Hahaha! Then I am lucky for having them! Else, I won"t get my self a strong G.o.ddess on my side!" Pedro patted Faunia"s head like she was his little sister.
"Heh!"
"Anyway! I only have one goal that I would need your a.s.sistance..."
"What is it, Human?"
"To fulfill the job of my "master"... and... To become the strongest being in this world!"
