It had been an excruciating three days for him.
The things expected of him included managing sails.
Extending, reefing, unfurling, and then sewing in case of any cut, all required him to go up and down the masts.
By now, Kai had been to all three masts of the galley so many times that he had even forgotten the count.
Raul had to just grunt in Kai's direction for him to know that it was time to go to the crow's nest once more.
His thighs were chafed raw, and the blisters had come and popped, turning his soles into what seemed like hard leather.
One thing that had been nodded at by almost all seamen was Kai's serpent-like nimbleness.
Life at sea was a life of youth and vigor. It demanded harsh ways, and harsher men besides.
All had noticed Kai's swift reactions, his slippery, gluey footing on the mast and the deck.
Though he hadn't gotten even a hint of any nod from Raul, Kai could sense the emotions of all.
He knew he was heading in the right direction, and that seemed to have been sufficient for him, at least for now.
The chores also included ropework, canvas work, boatwork, and correct stowage of stores and supplies. It scarcely felt like the work of a single man.
Kai did it all with his mouth shut and his body sweltering in the heat of the thick, humid air.
Then there was the almost hourly work of cleaning one part of the deck or the other.
After helping the cook serve the food to all crew and the first and second mate, Kai returned to his hammock to get some shuteye.
No matter how much he ate, the hunger didn't go away. He regretted not storing more of the Pokemon meat in his MRB.
Whatever was there, he had already finished it on the first day. His MRB wasn't that spacious, to begin with.
Now, with one more egg, it was becoming difficult to store miscellaneous things in it.
I need a serious Inventory expansion, Kai resolved, shutting his eyes. Unfortunately, it can only be done outside the Random Worlds because of the MRB.
Snores of men were already buzzing into the crew quarters.
A few of the men were going out with hushed steps, hissing, whispering, and cursing each other to hurry. Booze had corrupted their brains, and now, only whoring was on their mind.
Kai remembered Meg's words, then. He had been holding back from forming a Party just in case something untoward happened. Three days had already passed, though. He had waited enough.
-/Chaos,/- Kai said, -/I want to add 3rd-floor Contestant, Code named Morning Mist, to my Party./-

Sending the request to Contestant Morning Mist...
Request Accepted.
Assign a name to your Party...

Kai scratched his head as he looked at the notification. Name? I did not know I would have to give the Party a name. Hmm, let's see...
