While the members were returning by shipi, all the captains were occupied too.
Almost everyone was busy doing something at that moment. They were all rushing to contact their respective martial halls to report on Fade's performance. At the same time, they were trying to negotiate the benefits they could offer to Fade for him to join their hall.
After all, this was the warrior who had defeated Balton.
Fighters like him were rare even on the inner island. In the past decade, there might have only been one or two.
Therefore, no one wanted to let this golden opportunity slide.
Even Pierzy from Thunder Hall joined in the fight for Fade.
When they were almost at the dock, the members, who were all feeling exhausted before, were beginning to bustle with energy once again.
When the ship finally pulled in at the dock, they were a little excited to see people already waiting for them.
"It's the captains. Are they here to welcome us back?"
"Really? I guess they must think highly of us."
"Man, it's a pity that some of them will remain on that island forever."
"Something's not right. The captains' eyes look like they're searching for something. It doesn't look like they're here to welcome us back."
Amid their discussions, the ship approached the pier. The students descended the ship and went onto the shore.
The members walked over to their respective captains. Those with good results had smiles on their faces. They were eager to report their performance to their captain and appeal for their acceptance into the Halls. Even those who hadn't done so well were desperate to rush over and make a plea.
At this moment, Saimus' eyes swept over the group of people at the dock and he spotted Nestor.
Although he wasn't at his best performance on the island, he had quite a good harvest. He had taken most of what they'd found in the mine together with the herbs they had harvested. He'd taken half of the share while the other half was distributed equally among the rest.
Hence, his performance was still the best among all his members.
Thinking of this, a confident smile appeared on his lips as he made his way over to Nestor.
"Mr. Moo, I've returned," Saimus greeted him with a smile. He then showed his harvest. "This is what I've found this time. It's not the best, but it's not bad. Everyone..."
However, before he could finish, Nestor interrupted him impatiently, "I know. There's no need for you to say so much. Did you see Fade?" "Fade? Mr. Moo, why are you..." A look of shock spread over Saimus' face.
Instead of explaining himself, Nestor ignored him as his eyes scanned the other ships, trying to single out Fade from the crowd.
"Wait. What's going on?" Saimus was confused for a moment.
At the same time, the same thing was also happening at the dock.
The two very injured Jaston and Mina had successfully located their respective captains, Lucio and Suanne. They wanted to rant to their captain and report to them about Fade. Maybe in this way, they'd be able to get back at him.
However, before they could even say anything, both Lucio and Suanne asked about Fade's whereabouts, just like Nestor did.
When the other members noticed this, their faces were filled with curiosity and skepticism.
"What did Fade do? Why are so many captains asking about him?"
"Did something big happen? Are the captains going to arrest him?" "No way. It doesn't seem like it!" "What's going on then?"
Amongst all the hustle and bustle, someone finally found Fade. He shouted and rushed over. "Fade's there! He's over there!"
