Chapter 401 - 335: Hurricane and Chattering Ariel_3
Chapter 401: Chapter 335: Hurricane and Chattering Ariel_3
Placed in front of the door, Lis shook his head.
This talkative mouth…
This stealth ability…
This spellcaster’s ability…
No mistake, this is one of the future Pirate Kings, “Chatterbox Ariel”!
This guy’s popularity among players is fairly high.
...
Not for any other reason but it’s evident from his nickname.
Simply because he’s too talkative, never stopping even for a moment, and what’s more, it’s all utterly pointless prattle, truly a torment.
He’s also the most peculiar one among the three Pirate Kings.
Nothing like a king’s demeanor, his favorite thing to do is to grab someone and chat.
He enjoys it, but for others, it’s pure torture.
So much so that his crew can’t stand it, and his pirate ship has won the throne for the highest turnover rate among pirate members.
The reason he is so well-known among players is precisely this.
All captives caught by him are tied up and treated well, only to serve as his conversation partners.
That’s truly terrifying, dude!
Players are willing to die, and if the death is interesting, countless players would volunteer to experience it.
But being caught by him is simply a fate worse than death, passively enduring his endless babble.
And the worst part is, Ariel is a Gold High Order minstrel, and his talent ensures that his words carry Magic Power, meaning even if you shut your hearing, his voice can still directly enter your mind.
The feeling, as those lucky enough to have experienced it lament, is like having the Great Compassionate Mantra blast in your head in 360-degree surround sound.
Therefore, the fate of being caught by Ariel ranks in the top three of the “Most Unacceptable Endings” chosen by players.
It’s more unbearable than being sealed away, second only to being permanently banned.
Although Lis himself wasn’t caught by Ariel, an underling from his studio was once unfortunate enough to be Ariel’s captive.
For a month, he didn’t dare to log in!
As long as Ariel is free, whenever he sees you’re awake, he’ll come to talk to you about life.
Alas…
Lis looked at the “younger version” Ariel in front of him, shaking and mumbling, feeling a headache but also a pleasant surprise.
No matter what, this guy… is indeed strong!
Unlike Helen, who has a plethora of strong subordinates, and unlike the Master of Undead, Calvo, whose strength mostly resides on that Ghost Ship, Ariel’s status as one of the Pirate Kings is entirely due to his own strength.
As a minstrel, Ariel not only has outstanding skills, but his forte is the enchanting and heart-stirring arias!
He even has the glorious feat of controlling a Golden Strong Man with his original poems and singing!
That’s even harder than killing one!
His nature is not bad, but pirates with a bit of strength are unwilling to join his ranks and endure his nagging.
So, the reputation of the “Poet Pirate Group” is entirely Ariel’s doing.
Hmm…
It might also have to do with his peculiar hobby.
“What’s your name?”
Lis looked at the “younger version” Ariel in front of him.
“My name is Ariel.”
“I come from Gefa City in the southern part of King Bodich’s Kingdom.”
“My lord… Are you the hero who killed Patrick?”
“Really, I adore you!”
“That guy is too inconsiderate, disliking me for talking too much?”
“I…”
Seeing that Ariel wanted to continue, Lis quickly waved his hand to stop him.
Ariel stopped, his thick Adam’s apple moving up and down several times, suppressing the urge to continue pouring out his heart.
Right now, he is not the future invincible Pirate King, and feeling the dreadful aura of Lis, he could just barely control his urge to talk.
Lis felt a headache, as he could already sense Ariel’s world-shocking talent for gabbing.
Oh dawn above, how did he manage to spout all those words in just ten seconds, and so clearly without any mumble?
At that moment, Lis felt as though his brain was being DDOS attacked.
Lis began to doubt whether his idea to recruit him was the right one.
No, it can’t be wasted, such a great talent!
What if he becomes mute in the future?
Lis comforted himself, looking at Ariel and saying:
“I am Lis Kain, the new captain of the ‘Hurricane’. From now on, you’ll follow me, got it?”
Ariel nodded repeatedly and raised his right hand to vow:
“Rest assured, Lord Lis!”
“You saved me from the clutches of that Demon Patrick, you are my lifesaver!”
“Ah~, at this moment, I can’t help but want to sing a hymn!”
“Wise and mighty, radiating Holy Light Lord Lis pulled Ariel from the Abyss.”
“Oh Lord Lis!”
“You are so great, so kind!”
“Like the dawn’s first light, you cast upon Ariel’s heart, scarred all over!”
“Your smile is like the nourishing rain, moistening Ariel’s mind long dried out!”
“You are the angel sent from heaven, dispelling my Fear and sorrow!”
“Oh, Lord Lis~”
“You…”
“Can it!”
Lis couldn’t stand Ariel’s barrage of words anymore, let alone his dramatic and plaintive singing tone.
A Human Immobilization Technique pinned Ariel in place, most importantly, shutting his mouth.
Looking at Ariel’s somewhat wronged and bewildered eyes, Lis felt a bit overwhelmed.
Maybe the arcane he researched next should indeed be a Silence Technique!
