They don't want me to work harder

To be honest, he has a headache now.

It turns out that Veronica is really here. So, the giant who keeps repeating Grum is also an old acquaintance in the simulation?

Ugh.

I originally just wanted to catch a small character to practice my skills. It would be best to follow the clues and investigate the ecology of the surrounding pirates.

Well, now, Veronica has stepped in. How can he arrest people now - putting aside the special relationship in the simulation, he may not be Veronica's opponent!

Moreover, if we really have to face each other face to face, with that vampire’s character, it’s hard to say what will happen...

Fortunately, I put on makeup carefully when I came here, and coupled with the power-hiding effect brought about by the [Shadow Staff] trait... well, there was no way she would recognize me!

Thinking of this, Richard felt a little relieved and told Katyusha and White:

"Let's continue to pretend. After a few days when their guard is relaxed, I will directly summon the dragon to take you away."

"Your Highness, Your Highness..." White was obviously a little scared: "But what if they kill us alive tonight?"

"No, the most I can do is be exiled to a desert island."

Richard looked like he had come before, and patted White on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, as my deputy, you have to stand up!"

And the other side.

Click and click.

In the awed eyes of many pirates, Veronica stepped on her boots and stepped onto the deck of the Black Shark.

She narrowed her eyes and looked over all the prisoners with lazy and dangerous eyes.

Another bunch of boring guys.

Even if it is used as entertainment and food for today, it is not very qualified.

That's right, Veronica didn't attack Black Shark for revenge.

She was simply bored and a little hungry.

...However, the Black Shark Pirates surrendered too quickly and their own quality was not high, so she lost interest.

She was about to wave her hand and let her subordinates drop the low-level prisoners on any island, but she accidentally smelled a sweet smell.

This was something she had never tasted in reality, but it was also a familiar taste that she had indulged in for more than ten years in the simulated memory.

It turned out to be...

What I want is this!

Veronica turned around, caressed her red cheeks with her white hands, licked the corners of her mouth with her tongue, and said with a sweet smile: "There are also people here that I have seen in my dreams~"

All around, Pearl Buck’s crew shuddered.

It's coming, it's coming, the captain has to confide in someone again (physics)!

Richard below was as confused as the rest of the pirates.

Is this sentence such a big reaction?

But soon, Veronica broke away from her previous state, glanced at all the prisoners with a playful smile.

Is he in here?Which one specifically?

What was his original plan?

It wouldn't be good if you act randomly and make him feel bad...

Veronica said to the deputy beside her:

"Send the ship back to the port and kick the people off."

"what?"

"Didn't you understand me?"

"No, no, no, let's do it now!"

Veronica's men were surprised.

They didn't kill people, didn't draw blood, didn't even exile the prisoners, but they even thoughtfully sent people back to an inhabited island?

Captain changed gender today?

It's so rare, it's really a knife in the butt - it's an eye-opener!

Of course, all the captives, including Richard, only thought this was good news, and sighed in their hearts that Veronica was not as cruel as the legend said!

Late at night, the two ships returned to the neutral island's port.

In the curious and surprised eyes of the onlookers, Veronica's men released all the prisoners.

Richard immediately took his friends and hid far away.

"Huh...fortunately, I was not discovered as expected."

He breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Let's stay on the island for two more days. If we don't gain anything, we will go back."

"Okay, Your Highness..."

Then White led the way and took them to a small hotel. Unexpectedly, on the way upstairs, they happened to meet a familiar bald head.

He is the bosun of the Black Shark Pirates!

The latter had just left home and was arguing with the hotel owner about the price. When he saw Richard, he immediately laughed out loud.

"You're here just in time! Lend me some money to spend!"

Seeing this man coming with a knife, Richard also laughed out loud.

This is no longer on the ship, so why should he hold back?

Ah no, actually it's not his turn to take action...

Katyusha had already taken the lead and pushed the man who was a head taller than her to the ground!

Richard took the opportunity to inflict a mental shock, then apologized to the innkeeper, and took the person into the room on the second floor - since the captain was gone, it was not impossible to interrogate the boatswain.

But before he could sit down, there was a sound of bats flapping their wings outside.

Immediately, Veronica's words echoed in every street and alley.

"I have changed my mind, crew members of the Black Shark Pirates, your freedom has been taken back. Please report back to the port quickly, otherwise, I may not do anything~"

Looking at the little bat hanging on the window frame, Richard was speechless.

OK Veronica, you are so arrogant!

Broadcasting throughout the city and teasing the prisoners, it's no wonder you have such a good reputation!

After all kinds of tangles, Richard decided to go to the port to check the situation first, and get through if he could. If it didn't work, he would summon Dahei to run away.

When he arrived, he saw several former Black Shark pirates hanging on the pillars of the pier. People around him said that they didn't want to come back and resist with arms.

Some of them are dead, and some are still alive, muttering:

"Veronica, you are not trustworthy..."

Veronica on the boat smiled happily: "Did I promise anything?"

"Why on earth are you doing this..."

"It's late at night, I want to have a midnight snack."

For a moment, everyone on the neutral island shrank.

scary...

However, just as the entire city of Nyon was overwhelmed by the giant fungus beasts at the top of Silver, these thousands of lawless elements on the neutral island can only tremble in the face of the veteran vampire pirates at the top of Silver. Trembling, succumbing to the latter's female power.

In a place where there is no gold and an organized army, the deterrent power of the Silver Rank is unquestionable.

Veronica was pleased with the effect.

Then she stood up, waved gracefully, and said to her subordinates: "Let the remaining prisoners enter my room one by one. I want to see their quality... Well, let's start with him."

Richard was startled and found that the other party was looking directly at him.

hiss……

Did you do it on purpose or accidentally?

After being tormented all night, he felt really tired. While signaling Katyusha and White to calm down, he followed the pirates into the captain's cabin of the Pearl Buck.

In his heart, he was prepared to make a big move if something went wrong...

"first meet……"

However, after being alone in the captain's cabin, Veronica's first words gave up his idea of ​​​​escape.

"...His Royal Highness~"

Chapter 1: Captain, please respect yourself!

Ah, exposed.

But I obviously pretend to be perfect in appearance, right?

The corners of Richard's mouth twitched and he was speechless for a moment.

But things have already happened, so-called things have happened, and he can only accept the reality.

Then let us open the skylight and speak frankly!

Considering that the two of them didn't actually know each other yet, Richard directly summoned the Thorn of Dark Light, put on a defensive posture, and said coldly:

"It seems I still underestimated you, Captain Veronica...how did you find out?"

"Your disguise is indeed perfect, but the way we vampires recognize people is different from ordinary people~"

Veronica said, but she didn't even take a step back. She stretched out her white fingers and took the initiative to touch and caress the tip of Richard's sword, not letting go even if a drop of blood came out.

She said softly: "Your Highness Targaryen, is it true that in Connaught, it is a gentleman's courtesy to raise a sword to a lady?"

"Of course not, but you are a robber and I am an official. Isn't it normal for me to take precautions?"

"Yeah, I understand, but Your Highness really doesn't have to do this~"
