Chapter 202: Time to Lock Up the Brig
"This has nothing to do with you."
Captain Philip glared at him, "Zhou, step back now."
Zhou raised his neck, looking like a confused young man, and said, "Captain, I am the first mate of this ship, with rights and responsibilities. This is not proper and goes against common sense!"
Rin found his righteous look amusing. If he were a normal person it would be fine, but pretending to be an apostle was ridiculous.
This performance is no different from watching clowns at a circus.
It’s strange. As a hidden apostle, shouldn’t he be more discreet? It’s quite odd to show up at this moment.
Could it be that he’s anxious? Afraid something will be found during the search?
Hmm? Shouldn’t I also join in the competition on stage?
At any rate, he is a troublemaker. The more outstanding the performance, the harder it is for those apostles to hide their true identities.
In a flash, Rin made a decision and stepped forward, with his arms crossed and head tilted, giving off a very disdainful look.
"Did I hear you correctly, are you saying it goes against common sense?"
Captain Philip’s eye twitched, and he quickly tried to calm the situation, saying, "Guest, calm down, he doesn’t know your noble identity. Zhou, please go downstairs."
"It’s not about status," Zhou glanced at Rin and stubbornly said, "If something is lost, sailors should be mobilized, the boatswain should organize an investigation, and once docked, it should be handed over to the security office. Making a big fuss like this will cause chaos among the crew and passengers."
"Zhou, let’s handle it for now. As the captain, I’ve already agreed to this, so you have no say in the matter."
"Even if they are VIPs, they are just guests, how can they act recklessly on the ship! Captain, everyone will be unhappy with such behavior, I strongly object!"
Philip’s face turned very ugly. This deputy he appointed just six months ago, at first he only thought he was quiet and somewhat stubborn, and too strict with his subordinates.
Overall, he was quite low-key, and things he ordered were completed quickly. Generally speaking, he was okay, but he didn’t expect him to be so out of touch at this moment.
Before he could reprimand, Rin’s voice rang out.
"Oh."
Rin calmed himself and nodded expressionlessly, "So, you’re not happy with my decision?"
"Yes, no matter what position, according to the rules…"
"Bang!"
A thick Magic Book swiftly smashed onto the first mate’s head like lightning, knocking him senseless. Even after the blood seeped out from the wound, he remained motionless, without any reaction.
Not only him, but all the other crew members were also left stunned.
A well-dressed handsome young man, though a bit arrogant, it was just a common trait among aristocrats.
But before the words could be spoken, he directly attacked with a weapon, a stark contrast to his cold expression, catching everyone off guard.
Sha Ye standing nearby twitched his mouth, silently criticizing the short guy for his smooth and skilled action, even more so than his magical abilities.
"Who do you think you are, daring to be unhappy with me?"
Rin shook the Magic Book in his hand and asked in a nasty tone.
Zhou blankly touched his forehead, veins popped out instantly, clenched his fists tightly, lowered his head, and struggled to hold back the urge to kill this annoying human teenager.
"Any more dissatisfaction? Want to oppose?"
The disdainful and mocking voices echoed in his ears again, he felt a surge of anger rushing to his head, feeling dizzy. If he didn’t hold back, his head would have exploded by now.
The moment he became an apostle, Zhou had already distanced himself from being human, considering himself superior to humans. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
No, he had to endure it, for the resurrection of his master, he must endure it.
Such contradictions were his purpose, whether to sabotage the matter, or to attract some support, stir up protests with more people, confuse right and wrong, and make the situation more chaotic.
"You dare to ignore my question? Seems like you are still quite dissatisfied, huh?"
Rin turned to look at Sha Ye, they exchanged a glance, then raised the Magic Book again.
"Bam!"
Another loud thud sound hit the head of Zhou, making his head shake, he angrily looked up.
Just as Rin was about to strike again with the book held high, Zhou reached out to grab Rin’s wrist, but suddenly felt a burning pain in his knee, causing him to lose balance and kneel down.
Sha Ye casually placed the evil sword by his side, the sword was already dyed red with flames, spraying out sparks like magma.
The scorching heat could be felt even from several meters away.
Philip intended to quickly stop the situation, but before he could reach out, the burning heat made him recoil his hand.
The previously noisy discussions suddenly quieted down.
Zhou felt uneasy, the aura emanating from this young woman was extremely powerful, something he couldn’t possibly confront.
Especially the temperature of the magic sword, whenever it touches something, it will definitely create a sizzling, smoky scene.
He felt a bit irritated, knowing he had hit a tough spot.
By the way, at the moment, Sha Ye looks like a twenty-something mature lady because she is working as a bodyguard. Being young and high-ranking might raise suspicion.
"If you move, don’t blame me for turning you into roasted chicken."
Compared to Rin’s fierceness, Sha Ye’s fierce and wicked image of a bad woman is equally intimidating.
To Rin, a level thirty apostle is quite powerful, but to her, it’s just a trouble that can be easily dealt with.
Rin examined the apostle, who still looked like he was suppressing his anger. However, his tightly clenched fists had loosened, indicating he had given up resistance.
Well, getting bullied by the Demon King’s heroes all the time, now bullying some cannon fodder, feels not bad at all.
This is the biggest advantage of being a villain, being aggressive and violent, but still following professional ethics.
Rin smiled proudly, bent down slightly, and slapped the book’s cover onto his face.
"Anyone else have any objections, or want to oppose?"
"I… will explain everything in detail after the return journey…"
"Smack."
The Magic Book slammed hard on his face, almost knocking out a couple of his teeth, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you hit my report?"
"Smack."
Changing angles, the Magic Book smacked his left cheek, knocking the first mate to the ground.
"Let me teach you now how to be a good subordinate."
"Smack, do you give up?"
"Smack, are you satisfied or not?"
"Calling you to come to me, do you deserve it, you scoundrel?"
The first mate wanted to resist several times, but was always suppressed by Sha Ye. Now he was beaten so badly that he wouldn’t recognize himself even if he were resurrected.
"Sigh… let’s leave it at that for now. Why are you looking at me like that? I’m not a demon, I won’t kill anyone or leave them disabled… Go, lock him up in a dark room, don’t let him out until we reach port."
