I Can Read People's Comments-Chapter 327: Arrival

[Chapter 326 Comments.]

[DarkSlayer: It’s a Tomb Of the Sword King like always. I’ve never seen the Tomb of the Spear King, Axe King, Blacksmith King or something new and original. Over 90 percent of every stories, it’s always the sword, totally overused weapon.]

[Keltic_Spirit: I wonder what is special about the sword? And knowing you, the one you pick will become the one to wield said sword.]

[ScarletzWolf: hmmmm not sure about having a sword slave, a squire or a butler i can agree with, as you said, just changing the title of the person. but others would still call and referr to then as a slave…read more]

"Sword King, huh?" Theo smiled. "I don’t know how common it is, but it seems to be pretty common. Then again, I can wield multiple weapons while my main weapon is a spear. Now that I think about it, I haven’t wielded a spear once, it is saddening. Well, I can kind of admit that a sword is more conventional to use.

"Something special about the sword? Well, we don’t need to know, I think. If we know, the author might just use it to create another arc. We can’t let him do that. Or at least, we don’t discuss it right now so that the author will use it later. Knowing what things to expect is rather assuring.

"Yeah. You can easily change how you address someone, but in the end, one’s status won’t change. The only thing to do is by bringing them outside this world. I don’t care if they are talented or not. The plot armor will somehow make them strong." Theo smirked.

*Knock!*

*Knock!*

The carriage’s door was opened as the ten brothers were waiting outside. They had stopped for a while.

"We have arrived."

Theo let Haruka exit first before coming out himself. As expected, they were on the port. There were multiple battleships on the left side of the port, with a lot of people coming back and forth to restock their supplies.

The ten guys led them to meet someone who would lead the expedition.

"Admiral Gonzalez." They greeted a middle-aged man. He was wearing a navy uniform with a wide blue hat.

Despite his age, his body didn’t lose against time. He looked at Theo with that giant body of his. "So you are the teacher from the World Union Academy. I don’t know why I ended up getting an order to bring you as well."

"Don’t worry about it. I’m just here to enjoy the ride." Theo shrugged. He was here to teach his student, so there was no need for him to do the hard work if that wasn’t necessary.

The admiral gritted his teeth. "Do you know that I can kill you right now? You are so weak that my sword has reached your neck!"

All of a sudden, the admiral drew his sword. His movement was so fast that no one could react… No one except Theo.

"And you have died three times." Theo grinned. Discover stories at novelbuddy

"!!!" The admiral noticed that even though his sword was next to his neck, he couldn’t move farther, as if there was an invisible wall circling around his neck.

Although he couldn’t see it, there was a presence above him. Its hands were around his forehead as if it were trying to do something.

If he looked down, there was a pair of bloodshot eyes that were ready to emerge from the ground to crush him.

More importantly, his blade turned into a snake that turned around as if it were trying to bite him. If not for the fact that he knew this was an illusion, he would probably have let go of his sword.

The admiral pulled back and sheathed his sword. "I now understand why the empire sends you here. I am Admiral Gonzalez. I apologize for testing you."

Theo didn’t accept or reject his apology. He simply said, "What is the current situation?"

The admiral closed his eyes for a moment before explaining, "We will be going with four battleships and a total of two thousand people.

"There are about six thousand pirates. They will be intercepting us, so it’s better if we clean them up first.

"After that, we’ll head to the Sword King’s tomb while letting two ships take care of the rest of the pirates."

Theo crossed his arms. "The strong enemies?"

"The pirate leader is Azalk. He is a strong man who can go toe-to-toe even against a first-class knight in the empire. The one supporting him is a former sword master. There are several noteworthy names, but my subordinates will take them down."

"What about their actions? Have they done anything bad?"

If the admiral responded with, "Isn’t that obvious? They are pirates," Theo would definitely be disappointed.

However, the admiral understood this the most and showed that the empire wasn’t corrupted. He explained the matter seriously, "The pirate is robbing people from their staff. Sometimes, they are raiding port cities and demanding ransom. The people… I don’t think I have to tell you that.

"They have done a lot of unforgivable things that make them look like a devil instead of a human. It’s time to wipe them out."

Theo squinted his eyes. "Haruka?"

"Yes, Teacher." Haruka stepped forward.

The admiral couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows, not wanting to listen to a kid. However, Haruka said, "From what I can see, there are a lot of people having the same fate as those pirates. There are a lot of slaves here."

"We are from two different worlds. I don’t know your world, but in this world, slaves are legal."

"I’m not talking about the legitimation of slaves, but the strength of our troops. The enemy already outnumbers us, if we are weaker than them, it’ll be a lot of trouble."

"…" The admiral didn’t have a change of expression, but he secretly felt impressed by Haruka’s assessment. "We have enough strength to handle them. I can assure that."

"In that case, don’t you think it’s better if we make another surprise to have an overwhelming victory?"
