Cursed Immortality-Novel

Chapter 542 Take Over (1)

?Captain Free Sword spoke without having any intention of moving from his spot, "I humbly apologize for my previous offense, and this time, I've come with sincerity. I invite Miss and Sir to my humble ship to show my hospitality!"

'Not leaving your turtle shell, huh? But you're only inviting the wolf into your house…' Jacob smiled coldly, as he had already predicted this outcome.

Captain Free Sword would naturally not leave the safety of his ship and crew after knowing Jacob's strength, and he would feel secure with them, so he invited them over. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Novᴇ(l)ꜰɪre .ɴᴇt

But Jacob was also ready, and a gray disc appeared under his feet before he began to fly towards the ship. Captain Free Sword's eyes contracted to see this, but he didn't panic.

On Jacob was on the same height as Captain Free Sword, he looked down on the guy, making him uncomfortable, and said, "Since you show yourself, I'll naturally return the courtesy. Led the way."

'So, he is the one in charge!' Captain Free Sword's eyes shimmered with understanding as he had already suspected this since this giant was too powerful. How could someone like him listen to an epic?

Sofie was just a front to keep him hidden, which was completely justifiable since Captain Free Sword would do the same.

"Please." Captain Free Sword didn't pay attention to Sofie anymore and directly led him into the Ship's meeting hall.

Jacob nonchalantly entered, and he also felt many eyes on him; Immortika was right in front of him, and he confirmed that Captain Free Sword wasn't a puppet and all the crewmates were hidden and keeping a close eye on it, ready to react the moment he showed any malice.

However, Jacob had already acted. It was just that Captain Free Sword and his crew didn't detect anything.

They both enter a spacious hall with a table full of rare delicacies and mana fruits, and all of them are unique rank. This also shows Captain Free Sword's wealth.

Jacob couldn't help but secretly sighed since he now returned to this place as a feared guest then just an ant and Captain Free Sword didn't even notice his voice which made quite clear that Captain Free Sword didn't bother to remember him, he was just a disposable pawn.

Captain Free Sword also felt a little bit at ease when he saw Jacob calmly sit down, which meant he really wanted to form this partnership, and he was at fault from the start. Still, he didn't dare to let his guard down, and men were closely monitoring this place.

At this moment, Jacob picked up a golden fruit, carelessly removed his mask, and bit it while coldly stating while glaring at the corner, "Tell your man to stop hiding there and scram before I change my mind, or do you want to repeat the same mistake?"

Captain Free Sword was shocked as his heart trembled because Jacob was staring at the same place where Vile Horn was hiding using an advanced, unique rank stealth treasure, but Jacob saw right through him!

Furthermore, Jacob didn't even bat an eye before eating that fruit, so he wasn't worried about poison, which give him an air of mystery.

'Just who is he?' He thought gloomily and quickly said, "Ha…ha, it seemed my man was quite curious about Sir, don't worry it won't happen again. Vile Horn, if you've seen enough, now, leave our guest alone. I'll accompany sir."

The next moment, Vile Horn's figure appeared, wearing a gray cloak, and his eyes were filled with doubt and a hint of fear before he bowed his head and left the hall. He didn't dare to refute it, as this person was really not to be messed with.

"If there's someone monitoring, tell them to stop, since what I'm about to say is not something just anyone could here. Or do you think I need to put up this act if I want to deal with you?" Jacob coldly stated while picking up another fruit.

Captain Free Sword was now really impressed, and he no longer had any thought about suppressing this person. Since he dared to come, this could only mean he was fearless, and he didn't need to bother with all this if he had ill intentions, so he was slightly convinced.

In the end, he gives a signal that only his crewmates can understand before smilingly replying, "Haha, I trust sir completely. There is nothing here but my sincerity. I wonder what instructions sir has for me." He calmly sat down on the other side of the table, as he still didn't dare to sit close to Jacob.

Jacob smiled slightly as he asked, "Tell me, how did you end up here?"

Captain Free Sword didn't find this question unreasonable and replied, "My comrades betrayed me, and they disclosed my whereabouts to a powerful enemy, so having no choice, I was forced to use a trump, and I ended up here." Although he was subtle, he still gave a reasonable answer.

"Since your enemy was willing to spend so much time with you, then this could only mean you have something that interests them, or you've done something unforgivable, right?" Jacob asked.

Captain Free Sword smiled bitterly and masterfully dodged the question, "Sir, you should know we star pirates are outlaws, and there are hefty rewards in our heads, so anyone would be interested in calming them. I'm just a little pirate, just living in fear of others. How could I interest others? It's just that some people wanted to be heroes by dealing with a bunch of nobodies like us. We are not evildoers.

"On the other hand, I'm quite curious about how someone like sir is doing here, and what do you want from a nobody like me? As long as I can do it, I'm willing to work for you since all I want is to go back." He quickly changed the topic.

'What a sly bastard. He clearly has something that others want, and he is forced to flee. It seems he is hiding something terrible.' Jacob thought as he easily saw through Captain Free Sword's fa?ade.

Even an idiot could tell that Captain Free Sword was hiding something, which forced him to use something important that could send him directly to the epic star ocean. So, it wouldn't be just some random item.

In the end, Jacob decided to capture him first before taking his sweet time investigating it. He had already won some of Captain Free Sword's trust by lowering his guard.

"How is it?" Jacob questioned Nyx.

"Yes, he's not powerful enough to even detect my seed entering his dreamscape realm. Now, even if he runs, I can easily find him." Nyx confidently replied.

This was Jacob's true goal from the start. Even if Captain Free Sword could teleport away, Nyx's seed would be in his mind, and he couldn't escape Jacob's tracking no matter what. He was now completely in his palm.

The next moment, a ruby color cube appeared in his before crimson light flashed past Jacob's eyes as he used his hex, "Slumber Hex!"
