Chapter 291: The Key to Stronger Allies

My once inquisitive Captain fell into sudden silence, as his dark eyes twisted in a glare as they fixed on me.

I had to wonder if there was something wrong with what I said. 

|[Typhon?]| I drew closer. |[Is something wrong?]|

He withdrew slightly, and I watched as various emotions flitter across his eyes before he composed himself.

[No, nothing.] Typhon replied and turned around. [It just took me by surprise how plain it is. I expected something longer.]

Plain? I felt like coughing blood.

Typhon didn't speak again and simply went away, leaving me confused. 

I wanted to ask him what he meant but I suppose with all the names I gave them, mine would seem too plain, if it was similar to theirs.

Perhaps, I should have said something longer and several times more outlandish instead.

What a mean serpent! How could my own Captain look down on me like this?

My feelings were more than bruised!
