Capítulo 194: Slander and Invitations

A man who seemed to belong to the nobility stepped in. Daman sighed and put his pistol down, and even though the pirates and the prince didn't know who this man was, they followed the example of the bookish fellow.

"I think you are making a mistake," he said.

"And you want that power out of the pure goodness of your heart," the king-captain said.
