Kai found himself swinging in a hammock, staring up at the musty and moist wooden roof.
He sat up and saw that he was wearing a thin, loose shirt over torn shorts. His feet were damp and naked.
Then he looked around.
It was a big hall crammed up with many dusty yellow hammocks, which gave a hint that they might have been white a few ages ago. The floor was also wooden, long, soggy timber running across from one side of the hall to the other. Wooden casks were lying about in two of the four corners, and the entire hall reeked of a strong, bitter smell of booze and piss.
A sudden creaking noise from his right caught Kai's attention.
Kai was on one side of the hall, with nothing but a wooden wall on his right, and now, words were appearing on the wood as if someone was scratching them out using a sharp knife. Even the noise had an edge, he realized, wincing with every letter.

Congratulations Contestant Kai Stormborn
You have triggered a Side Mission
...
Main Mission: Three heads of the Targaryen Dragon
Side Mission: Elementary Seamanship
Side Mission Summary: Black Betha, a galley captained by Ser Davos Seaworth, is stationed at Dragonstone's harbor. In the absence of the Onion Knight, the ship is under the command of the Quartermaster Matthos, Ser Davos' son.
You are a newly hired ship's boy who is apprenticed to be trained in the ways of seamen. The second mate, Raul, will oversee your training and will assign you all the work any seaman ought to do on the ship.
Once the second mate deems you worthy enough, he will present you to the Quartermaster for inspection. You must get Matthos' acknowledgment to proceed to the third part of your Main Mission.
Side Mission Objective: Get Elementary Seamanship Ability
Side Mission Time Limit: 1 week
...
Do you accept the side-mission?

Wow! Kai was gobsmacked. The Systems itself is rewarding an Elementary Ability directly through a Side Mission?!!
From what Meg had told him, only the most luckiest and worthiest Contestants chanced upon Abilities, and that too through Hidden Missions or as the reward of Main Missions.
Then there was the Elementary Seamanship. It was one of the the most sought-after Abilities for those who wanted to make a name for themselves in the Random Worlds of One Piece and the Pirates of the Caribbean.
Kai also noticed that there was no introductory notification this time.
Maybe I will get it after completing this mission, he guessed and accepted the mission. The black bar of Abnormality Limiter has returned, though.
After the mission's acceptance, all the words etched on the wood disappeared.
More rows of words followed this disappearance, whose structure suggested a personal nature.
