Logan slowly walked into the room.
His intuition was telling him that the person was in the room, like a venomous snake, waiting for the best moment to strike.
The weather was growing stormier and the winds were picking up.
Madison didn’t know how the wind entered her room when her door and windows were shut.
It was making her feel uneasy.
She raised her head to look outside the window.
The winds were bellowing and bringing up huge waves.
They were entering Devil’s Chasm soon.
The weather was worse than before.
It was like the sea was trying to swallow them up.
The huge waves crashing against the ship caused it to shake violently.
Occasionally, there were huge waves that would strike fear into anyone who saw them.
The sea took on a darker hue, looking more ominous without the sun.
The Devil’s Chasm was very aptly named.
Madison stood beside the window feeling uneasy.
It looked like it was about to rain, which would worsen the situation.
Madison’s anxiety grew when she thought of how they would be traversing such turbulent waters for the following days.
Another huge wave struck the ship and caused it to shake.
Madison almost lost her balance and fell.
She paced around the room for a while and decided that she wanted to look for Logan.
At least she would feel reassured with him around.
She had started to feel attached to him after spending so much time together.
As soon as Madison opened the door, the winds surged and slammed it shut before she could even take a step outside.
The door was closed so abruptly that it almost hit her on her nose.
Then, she heard a sailor’s voice through the wind saying, “Miss, you should stay in your room.
The weather’s really bad right now.
And the ship’s swaying a lot.
You might get hurt if you come out.” Madison wondered where Logan went.
Her heart was racing.
Logan was slowly exploring the storage room.
He held a high- power flashlight that shed light on some mostly broken tools.
Dust was swirling in the air and the corners of the walls were lined with glistening, swaying cobwebs.
Just as a large spider slowly descended from its web, Logan abruptly swung his flashlight to the back.
Behind him stood a masked man holding a dagger.
The blade was only an inch away from piercing Logan.
Logan reacted promptly and shone the flashlight into the masked man’s eyes to disorient him.
Then, he kicked the masked man with all his strength.
The man fell into a toolbox with a loud “thud”.
Some of the hammers hanging on the wall fell and brought up acloud of dust.
“Don’t move.” Logan shone the flashlight directly at the man.
The man raised his arms to shield his eyes.
His tall frame appeared forlorn amid the debris.
Then, Logan finally got a good look at the man.
He was shocked when he saw the mask.
“It’s…
you.”
The mask belonged to Jack.
Jack squinted as he sized up the man before him.
The man looked like Hunter, but Hunter had a larger frame.
Jack’s gaze then fell on Logan’s face.
It was a very plain face.
Jack had never seen it before.
Was he not one of the assassins sent to kill him? “Do you know me?” Yes.
That was Jack’s voice.
Logan took a few steps forward and grabbed his collar.
He said coldly, “Spit it out.
Why are you here?” Jack thought the man’s attitude was weird.
If he was one of the assassins after his life, they would have put a bullet through his head by now.
They wouldn’t ask silly questions.
Who was this man? Logan’s kick from before had landed on Jack’s wound and caused the wound to reopen.
Blood started to flow and stain his shirt.
However, before Logan could question Jack further, a terrified sailor yelled in the corridor, “Pirates! Pirates are here!” Acold gleam flashed in Logan’s eyes.
So they crossed paths with pirates after all? Those scum.
Outside, the sound of sailors running around followed.
Even though they were just on a regular cargo ship, they were still armed with some weapons.
Back when pirates were rampant in the area, everyone had to pick up some skills in order to survive.
But the pirates had just been eliminated a few years ago and peace returned to the area for a bit.
But now, the pirates were back.
Logan immediately tied Jack up and threw him aside.
“Stay put.” Then, he quickly left.
No matter what Jack’s goal was, he would never hurt Madison.
He wasn’t a threat compared to the pirates.
Jack was only thinking about the two children.
Damn it.
Why would pirates appear at that very moment? Tobias was playing with the two children in his room.
He noticed that despite being young, they were very intelligent.
They were very mature too, more mature than children their age should ever be.
“Genius! You’re an utter genius, Zack,” Tobias said.
He had only intended to teach Zack how to play chess to pass the time.
But he didn’t expect Zack to pick up the game so quickly.
It had only been a few days since Zack learned the game, but Tobias was no longer a match for him.
Tobias would be ridiculed if word got out that he lost at chess to a child who was barely three years old.
As for Alicia, she didn’t like to play chess.
Rather, she enjoyed using his computer.
Other kids their age couldn’t even count to three, but these two had already built an extensive vocabulary.
Zack moved a piece on the board.
It was a checkmate.
He had ended the game in less than five minutes.
Tobias was beyond excited.
He knew that Zack would be able to make a name for himself if he was given a proper education.
Before Tobias could pester Zack for another game, a commotion was heard outside the room.
“B-bad news, captain! Pirates are here!” The door was pushed open with a “bang”.
A frightened young sailor stood at the entrance.
This sailor hadn’t been on the ship for too long.
He had only seen peaceful days.
He had never seen such chaos.
The smile on Tobias’ face faded.
“Don’t piss yourself.
It’s too late to run.
We can only face them head-on.” He put down the chess piece he was holding.
Then, he patted both the children on their heads.
“Be good.
Stay here and don’t go out.
