And he swore by whatever divine force ruled the heavens, he would not let the crew break up. However, he didn't need to become captain of the ship to do so. Yet, Jonathan, his opponent in this election, oddly egged at him to step up. 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWcTk3ae5D
In the end, most of them had voted for Hector, for reasons he didn't really understand at the point, but they must've felt he could fill the role better than Jonathan. He wasn't a bad fellow, either. Yet, he wasn't going to question the crew's choice. He took up the mantle of captain without question.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaLUDXQFgy
Later, he had found out that Jonathan wanted Hector to run against him, because he didn't want to role of captain, but would've taken it should Hector refuse. He had already known the majority of the crew respected Hector quite a bit, and would've elected in his favor.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZez1DAHTI
