I got off the bed after I heard Crane's shout. Cecil was still on the bed, breathing heavily, her chest moving up and down, and her body covered in various liquids.
"W-Where… are you going?" She forced herself to get up even though she was exhausted and asked. "W-We're not done yet… Especially after earlier!" She protested.
"We will continue later, okay?" I kissed her on the forehead and took out a set of clothes from my inventory. "You rest first. I will satisfy you until morning later."
"Don't command me. I still do not fully agree to be your woman before you give me what you promised! Don't think you can get my heart just by that. I am not that cheap and have a lot of treasure." Cecil heaved a sigh and lay back down on the bed.
"But well, I will just masturbate. My body is… on fire and sensitive right now. Come back fast and fuck me until I break, then I will think again of being your woman. Hnn~ So good!"
She began to pinch her nipple and insert her finger into her pussy as I got dressed in black trousers and an unbuttoned dark brown shirt.
I didn't wear anything luxurious as we were in the sea. It would just get wet from the crashing waves. Exiting the captain's cabin, I closed it again so no one could hear Cecil moaning loudly inside.
But that woman was also cheeky. How much treasure she had to even deny the pleasure and happiness she had with me? I knew she couldn't live without me anymore. But if she was willing to throw away that kind of pleasure for her treasure, it must be a lot.
'She shared it with her brother, though. So it's not entirely hers.'
The deck was busy. 4 thugs were running around the deck, trying to disembark at the island that came close to us. Due to the darkness and only a little moonlight shining over the sea, it was hard to see the island.
That island was normal; the size was probably only 500 x 400 meters, with rugged hills and greenery. Many blunt rocks jutted out on the edge surface, making it easy for a ship to use them to rope the ship close to the island.
"Tie it tightly! Elf girl, follow me to the island! We will take something and leave right after the others show up!"
"Aye!"
Crane gave instructions with a loud voice and jumped off the ship without any hesitation. The Elf girl followed close behind him, and they landed on a rock before jumping around to reach the sandy beach.
The others were still working and didn't even try to look at me.
My position here was as Cecil's boy, and I needed their protection. However, it was now different, as Cecil had already agreed to be my girl. Not that her personality would change overnight, but at least she understood that I wasn't the innocent boy she could dominate.
"But they just straight up ignoring me, huh?" I muttered as I looked over the thugs. "It's just convenient for me."
I looked like a bad pirate due to my clothing. It was also dark and not standing out.
Looking at Crane's dynamic movement as if he was avoiding something along the way by zig zagging around, some traps might lie inside the forest they just entered. It just made my belief this was where they hid the treasure stronger.
"Let's take a look and get the treasure, shall we? While I am at it, let's take over this ship and become the captain."
Grinning excitedly, I kicked the ship softly and landed on the island under cover of the night. Glancing back, I noticed the thugs hadn't realized me yet, and I proceeded into the forest.
For safety reasons and because I wanted to chase after Crane without losing sight of him, I traced his steps but still looked around to see whether I had missed something they hid or any traps.
But there was nothing like that in the path I traced. The grass was even parted to mimic an animal trail, making it easy to know where to go next.
And after running for a few seconds, I managed to catch a glimpse of them running side by side. It would be bad if I was seen before Crane reached his destination, so I jumped on the trees to hide and maintained my distance while enhancing my senses.
It took only 2 minutes before Crane suddenly stopped around the foot of a hill and turned to the Elf girl.
"Hmm." I stopped and watched their sudden action. Rather, it was Crane who made a move first.
"Stay still," Crane ordered authoritatively at the Elf girl, stretching his big hand forward.
The Elf girl, whose name I didn't know, looked shocked and took a step back. She was afraid of the sudden change in Crane and shrunk like a small animal.
I was ready to move if he tried to do something the girl didn't want to. But my worry was unfounded.
"Don't move!" He shouted at the girl. "I am about to open a secret door. Stay still, or you will trigger the trap. Trust your captain, girlie."
"Oh… Aye, captain. Me apologies."
Crane nodded at the Elf girl and extended his hand toward the hill as his hand was covered in a bluish mana, the earth before him moved, revealing a hidden door underneath a 1 meter pit.
So that was where he hid his treasure. Crane's grin told me what I needed to know: the door in that pit led to the treasure trove he and Cecil hid.
Even if I tried to find this place myself, I would be unable to as I had no <Treasure Detection> skill that a rogue usually had. And my radar showed a lot of hollow area underground, so I would need to check all of them before finding this one, and that would take a lot of time.
"Listen." He faced the Elf with a stern expression. "Because you joined our pirate crew and are useful, I will trust you with this knowledge. But, I have one condition."
"What be it, captain? Ara be all ears, ready to listen and obey." The Elf girl, apparently her name was Ara, replied in the sailor's tongue.
That was still foreign in my ears, but I could understand it a little bit better now.
"Be my girl." Crane declared without beating around the bush. "And the treasure inside will also be yours."
Scratch that, this guy needed a beating.
Ara looked uncomfortable and confused. Of course, a man almost twice her height and with large horns protruding on the side of his head just asked her to be his woman, and the treasure inside was offered to her.
However, I was naïve. I didn't know that a pirate and thugs, even in the Virtue Kingdom, was as worse as a criminal in Horizon Online.
"What about yer sister, captain? Ain't ye sharin' this treasure with her?"
"Doesn't matter. She's just a bitch and acts pretentious around me. I am the captain, and this treasure is all mine." Crane replied with a smile. "So, be my woman, and let's share this treasure. Of course, hide the fact from that woman."
"If that be the case, then I be acceptin', captain. No, darling."
"Kukuku, good decision." Crane laughed in a low tone and kissed Ara right in front of me.
Yikes… seeing that made me want to hurl. That Elf girl was actually so greedy.
Of course, that would be the case. Was I stupid? She was a thug who joined a pirate ship to scam the merchant.
After they kissed for a few seconds, Crane jumped down the pit and kicked the door open. They disappeared inside.
I took out [Shadow Cape] and followed them inside by hiding in the shadow. And when I entered, I immediately was greeted by a notification that I had completed the requirement to dominate Cecil.
However, I ignored that for now as the sight in front of me invited a big smile to my face.
'Holy! This place is indeed fit to be called a treasure trove.'
