Chapter 742 - New Hope
Angor glanced at Tulu again, who looked very surprised to hear what Helen said.
“Captain Erwin found Tulu from a small village three years ago. He was only 15 back then. The association only accepts people who are 18 or older. Tulu has been working on the ship as probation. During these years, it’s Erwin who’s been taking care of Tulu’s expenses and payment. Well, he’s 18 now, but the captain is planning to get to Ferran Land before getting Tulu registered. I don’t think that’s necessary anymore.”
“Hey wait, I’ve been getting my salary from Captain Erwin?” Tulu widened his eyes.
“Yup.” Helen continued explaining, “I mean to say, Tulu is not an employee of White Clam, so you don’t have to worry about getting into trouble by taking him away.”
Angor knuckled at the desk. “I see then…”
Helen suddenly stepped on Tulu’s boots, which caused the young man to yell in pain.
Call him teacher! She told Tulu using her eyes.
When Tulu finally realized what he should do and tried to show his manners, Angor released a small trace of nightmare energy to silence him.
…
Once in the hallway, Helen looked at Tulu’s uncontrollable smile and whispered to him, “Conceal that look while on the ship, will you? Don’t let your tongue slip and cause trouble to Mister Padt.”
Tulu nodded but without removing that big smile. He just couldn’t help it.
Helen sighed. “Think about Mister Roman. Maybe the wizarding world isn’t that awesome as you think. Power always means corruption and violence. Learn from Mister Padt and grow up.”
