Chapter 224 Tezzolo’s decision

After calming down, Tesoro realized that he had caused a big disaster.

He looked at the girl in his arms who was slowly stopping sobbing, then looked up at Saint Chalmaco who was already unconscious on the ground.

Tezoro's brows were furrowed at first, but then, as his brows relaxed, his eyes gradually became firm.

No matter what, it's all worth it!

Tezoro carried the disabled Stella on his back and walked slowly towards Gel and the others, picking up the sack he had brought along the way.

"Thank you for your help. This is all the Bailey I can give you. Although this amount of money is less than one ten-thousandth of the life-saving grace, I hope you will accept it as a small token of my gratitude."

Tezulo handed over the sack with both hands and thanked him.

Stella also quickly got off his back, bent down and bowed deeply to Gel and the others.

No, I think you have a way to repay me.

Even with the beauty beside him, Gel was staring at Tesoro with lustful eyes, and his burning gaze gave him goose bumps all over his body.

Senior's fingers turned into sharp claws. He walked forward coldly and gestured twice in front of the woman. His movements were as fast as lightning.

“Clang! Clang~”

Before Stella could react, she found that the shackles on her neck and hands had been cut off and fell to the ground with a clang.

"Ah, thank you, my Lord!"

Still with some disbelief, she touched her neck, which was originally fair and tender but now had many scars from wearing an iron collar for a long time.

Senior nodded without saying a word, very gentlemanly, but he was still wearing a stocking hood on his head, which made a big contrast to his behavior.

"Eat it, it will help your injuries heal faster."

Gel handed each of them a Da Huan Dan. Seeing that they both ate it obediently, he continued:

"My name is Ger, and I'm a well-known and tough explorer. You can rest assured that I'm not some suspicious bad guy. As for other things, we'll talk about them in detail later. Now I have to yo-yo."

Although Tezulo didn't know what a yo-yo was, he could still understand what Geer wanted to say based on the current situation. He said in a firm tone:

"No, Lord Gel, I just attacked the Celestial Dragons in a moment of impulse. I have committed an unforgivable crime. Even the admiral of the navy may personally go out to hunt me down. If I go with you, it will only harm everyone. So let me stay. Everyone has their own consequences. I will bear the crime of attacking the world's nobles. I only ask that you take Stella with you to escape from here!"

There was a determination to die in his eyes, and he knelt down and pleaded with Gel sincerely.

"No! Tezulo, everything is caused by me. If you must stay and die, then let me stay with you."

Stella was completely panicked as she didn't expect that after finally being together, she would have to separate again. She held onto Tesoro's arms tightly with both hands and refused to let go.

Seeing this young couple in love being so ungrateful, they started to show their affection to each other again.

Captain Gill, who was allergic to romance, interrupted ruthlessly:

"Wait, don't rush to think about whether you die or I die or we all die together. In order to save you, I have offended even the Celestial Dragons and the World Government behind them. Your lives no longer belong to you completely, so from now on, no one can take your lives without my permission! Of course, if you insist on seeking death, I will not stop you."

Gel had already made up his mind that if they insisted on staying and dying, he would respect their choice. After all, in his opinion, those who were willing to be killed were not even qualified to be saved.

Gel spread his hands and asked with a smile like a bewitching devil:

"Sah! Tezulo, Stella, it's time to make a choice! Are you willing to call me captain? Do you want to follow me until death? Or do you want to surrender to the so-called world nobility and stay here to die?"

Stella clutched her skirt tightly with both hands, her heart was extremely conflicted, the desire to survive and the kindness of not wanting to drag down her benefactor collided violently.

"But, sir... they are Celestial Dragons. Taking us in means being enemies with the World Government. For people like us... is it really worth it?"

"Humph, just a world government!"

Barrett, who was even more unscrupulous than Captain Beagle, said with disdain upon hearing this.

On the side, A Jin kindly reminded:

"You just need to answer the captain's questions. The captain will handle the rest. You don't need to worry about it."

After so much difficulty, they were reunited with the one they loved. No one wanted the happy time to be so short. It was the most precious time of youth, and they still had countless wonderful things to experience together.

Tezulo was a smart man. He didn't act pretentiously. He just took Stella's hand and knelt on one knee on the ground. However, he didn't suddenly propose to her. Instead, he asked Ge Er:

"Captain Gul, we are willing to follow you until death! Please save us! We don't want to die like this."

The desire to survive made him change his mind, or it should be said that if there were other options available, Tesoro would not want to die in such a cowardly way.

Having successfully fooled another younger brother, Gel showed a satisfied smile, walked forward and pulled the two of them and spoke enthusiastically.

"Hahaha, everyone, get up. We're family from now on. It's a wise decision. Very good! You didn't let me down."

Then Geer took out a large sack and handed it to Ajin, saying:

"Tie up that idiot with the fish tank on his head and take him away. Oh, and remember to gag him."

"Yes, Captain."

Ajin took the sack and walked towards Saint Chalmaco.

"Senior, Barrett, throw these remaining lackeys to the fish, and remember to clean them up."

"Leave it to us, Captain."

"Come on, both of you follow me back to the residence first."

"Ah, yes, Lord Gur!"

Tezulo and Stella said stiffly.

Gel waved his hand and turned to walk forward. Weevil helped Ajin carry the sack, and the two followed closely behind Gel. Senior and Barrett happily dealt with the crime scene.

"Just be casual. Don't be so restrained. We are all family. Just call me Captain."

"Okay, Captain!"

Tezoro originally wanted to ask if they should pack up and run away now?

But seeing that Gel and his companions all looked as if they were not taking it seriously, he had no choice but to swallow his words and quickly followed with Stella's support.

...

"Da da da~"

The leather shoes made a crisp sound when tapping on the stone road.

"No? We are wearing stockings and hoods, carrying a big sack that is twisting. Shouldn't we be the most handsome guys walking on the street? Why is there no one willing to take a second look at us? What's going on?"

Arriving at a busier street, Captain Gel asked in confusion as he saw passers-by hurrying past him without even bothering to look up at him.

"Captain, this is a lawless area. There are all kinds of vicious criminals everywhere, such as fighting, robbery, kidnapping, and human trafficking. It is normal for us to dress and act like this here."

Behind him, Tezulo, a local, explained.

"Oh, there is such a thing. It's really outrageous that there is no order at all."

Gel said as he took off his hood, thinking to himself, why didn't you tell me the situation earlier when you knew it? Doesn't this make my perfect disguise seem redundant?
