"Hmm. Have you learned to write?"
Ian quite admired Andor's tact, which was the fundamental reason the other survived. Soon, he noticed the report and notebook in Andor's hand, filled with dense writing: "It looks like you've written quite a lot, huh?"
"What did you write?"
"Yes, sir. I originally knew some scattered words... In order to meet the demand, I've been seriously studying recently."
Regarding this matter, Andor couldn't suppress his pride, which was something he was quite proud of.
After all, learning to read and write in a short time, even with some prior foundation, was truly a remarkable achievement for a pirate.
