The Charm of the Pirate

Captain Hades

Inn 'Je souffre et aime', December 1499.

Sofia who was sitting too far away could not hear their conversation, even though she had opened her ears wide, but did not get anything.

Hades looked at Sofia, they clashed. Sofia quickly shifted her gaze, but Hades only laughed as soon as she saw Sofia's confusion.

"Enough interesting." Mumbled.

"Captain, it looks like some soldiers are getting closer and closer towards this place." Ben saw the situation outside.

"We have to go now."

"Richi, go first."

"All right."

"Don't do the no-no." Before leaving, Richi looks at Sofia first.

"Is this what you call monkey love?" Hades speaks of origin.

Richi looked at him with disgust, then left.

Sofia breathed heavily, she did not speak a word with Richi, and just looked at him like a fool.

After Richi was long gone, Hades walked closer to Sofia. All the eyes in the room paid attention to Sofia's movements. They get curious because Sofia does not show what should happen if they meet the most famous pirates of the century.

Sofia does not know what the profession of Hades is, she clearly does not understand why everyone is afraid to see Hades.

"Little girl.."

"Are you not going?"

"Me?"

"I'll stay here."

Hades laughed out loud at Sofia's reply. He shed tears for not being able to hear it.

"Jeez Ben, we need this girl for entertainment on the boat."

"Do you agree?"

"Of course Captain!!"

"Do you want to come with me?" Hades looked at Sofia with a face full of smiles that could not make anyone turn away.

"Come with you?"

"For what?"

"Well.."

"What if this is.."

"You'll see that man again."

"Just the guy?"

"The man who came out first." Hades showed a wicked grin.

Before Sofia is really interested, it is fortunate that the sound of the siren saves her from the terrible tragedy that will befall her.

"See you little girl."

"May we meet again." Hades waved his hand at Sofia.

"May not." Mumbled slowly.

Captain Hades and Ben left quickly through the back door, no one dared to stop him.

Not long after, the sound of someone breaking down the door from the outside was so loud that Sofia's reflexes covered her ears.

Braaaak!

Braaaaac!!

The door opened, and dozens of soldiers were standing in front of the building.

A marine runs inside and immediately secures Sofia. Sofia is shocked and unable to fight back when the tall man carries her like a princess in a fairy tale.

"Hey..!"

"Hey..!"

"GET RID OF ME!" Sofia hit the back of the soldier's back.

"Sorry Miss, this is an order."

Sofia doesn't fight anymore, this must be her father. Only his father knew he was running away from home.

Sofia was silent and did not put up a fight.

He rode a horse-drawn carriage with strict guard. To his left and right sat a guard. Even he could not move freely.

Sofia was so upset, she breathed heavily.

After passing through the rocky road, Sofia repeatedly almost fell, but swiftly a guard beside her held her body so as not to bounce around.

The road passed is getting better, a sign Sofia is getting closer to her home.

All the lights in Marquess Jasper's house are on. As the sound of the horse-drawn carriage rang out, Jasper dashed quickly towards the entrance, as well as Elie.

"Good night sir, we've found Miss Sofia." An officer with a high position represents his comrades."

"Thank you, where is my daughter?"

A chariot driver opened the door of the carriage quickly, then helped Sofia to get off.

"Sophy!"

"That naughty girl!" Jasper ran and hugged Sofia tightly.

"Dad.."

"Aren't you angry?"

"Then you must be severely punished!"

After reuniting with Sofia, Marquess Jasper entertains the entire army and everyone who has helped find her Son.

Unmitigated, Marquess Jasper took out all of her precious Rum supplies. Everyone was delighted with the treatment of the royal Marquess Jasper.

Elie walks with Sofia in her room. Elie was crying all the way. Sofia felt guilty, she didn't say anything.

"Miss.."

"Are you okay?" Elie scanned every inch of her young Miss' body meticulously.

"I'm fine Elie.." Sofia could not bear to embrace her servant who was so loyal and kind.

"Where did you go, Miss?"

"I go down every road we used to walk on if we went into town."

"But no one knows where you are."

"Ah, I'm not there."

"Then, where did you go?"

"I was escorted by a donkey coachman named 'Je souffre et aime' if not mistaken."

Suddenly, Elie's face turned grim. She squeezed Sofia's hand tightly.

"What's Elie doing?"

"Are you really going there?"

"I was there."

"Jeez, what a disaster!!"

"You're overreacting Elie.."

"No, Miss.."

"No.."

"Do you know what place it is, what place?"

"No, what place is it?"

"Miss, that tavern is a den of thieves!"

"Nest villain Miss!!"

"Konon said, every pirate has ever visited that place!" Elie shuddered in horror at the thought of her young Miss visiting such a place.

"really?"

"As in the storybook I read?"

"Miss, for God's sake!"

"That place is dangerous."

"I'm okay really."

"Indeed the place is a little creepy, it's full of the smell of booze and tobacco smoke."

"But nobody hurt me."

"There was someone who wanted to take me to the ship, but the sound of the siren made them leave."

"Miss, God is still with you."

"Who is the jerk that wants to take you?"

"Hmmm.."

"If it's not wrong, someone calls him Captain Hades."

Brugh!!

Elie fell down instantly hearing the name mentioned by Sofia.

"Youte!!"

"Gosh, are you okay?"

Elie's face was still pale, her lips were shaking, she couldn't control her heartbeat.

"Youte!!"

"Respect.."

"Miss, for God's sake Miss.."

"That man is the most dangerous man!!"

"He is the devil Miss.."

"Runing word, the pirates terrorized every island they visited Miss!!"

"They took dozens of virgins and sold them in Somalia."

"And he found a jewel like you in that slum, God loves you very much Miss, I swear by the Spirit of My Mother and Father who are gone.

"Elie's.."

"You really didn't make up a story?"

"It's been a legend for decades, Miss, no one doesn't know the name of Captain Hades."

"Maybe it's just you who doesn't know it."

"But, Richi knows her Elie."

"Maybe they're a cabal, miss.."

"Gosh, they're hiring good-looking men now."

"that's terrible."

Throughout the night, Elie continues to tell the legend of Captain Hades in great detail. Sofia still can't believe she came home intact after hearing a very creepy story. There is not a single good that Elie tells us about this Captain Hades. He really is an***** which is very nasty, rude and brutal. That's how people know him.

Notes :

Pirate or otherwise known as Pirate. Usually they sail the sea to rob merchant ships or ships that look luxurious.

His behavior is far from good and unforgiving to anyone. In fact, they did not hesitate to destroy the ship with cannons.
