Chapter 493: Sea G.o.d's Fury (1)
"I can feel bad omen around this place. Are we going to keep exploring deeper or come back here tomorrow morning?" Rhea looked left and right with vigilance. She didn't want to miss even the slightest detail in this mysterious and strange zone.
"Of course we will continue to explore inside. I can sense that my other avatar is not far from here." Oceanid frowned. If the situation became like this, he wasn't sure if his other avatar would be as frivolous as the previous one.
"Fine, but we'll only be scouring this area for one pa.s.s. If we fail to find anything, we'll continue again tomorrow morning." Nell agreed. It didn't matter if anyone objected because her decision was final.
"Alright. Let my little decoy check out what might await us ahead. We just have to follow it." Oceanid opened his palm and concentrated a little on it.
A clump of water slowly formed the shape of a small bluefish. Then, the little fish was simply thrown out of the barrier.
Seeing the fish swim away, Nell didn't say anything and just ordered her magic carpet to follow the little fish.
"Ooh~ Our field of vision has become so limited even though the Sea G.o.d has used his divine magic to allow us to see far. What could possibly be going on here, hmm? What if a terrifying deep sea creature suddenly appeared out of nowhere with its mouth wide open, to devour us!?" Sylvia put her hands to her cheeks in a hysterical cry, but her expression said otherwise.
"Aah, that scares me." Ella rubbed her arms while looking left and right restlessly.
"Why do you have to say things like that, right here and now, Sylvia? It's starting to bother me and scare me." Evelyn voiced her protest with anxiety and a slightly trembling voice.
The surroundings became pitch black once again. Only the limited s.p.a.ce on the magic carpet was illuminated by the lighting.
"I don't know what might happen in this place. However, my vision aids are ineffective here. If you're feeling scared, just close your eyes or tell stories to each other. It won't take long, I promise you." Oceanid suggested in a relatively gentle tone, but he didn't turn to the girls. He was focused on scanning the surrounding area using his decoy.
"Ohoho~ Sure, sure. The atmosphere in this place is quite suitable for exchanging stories. Ely, come join us. I'll share an interesting story with everyone. Just let the G.o.ddesses help the Sea G.o.ds to scan this area." Sylvia beckoned Elysia to come closer.
If it was a matter of exchanging stories, she felt very excited because she was an expert in that field.
Elysia looked at Elena and received a nod. Therefore, she accepted the invitation. The girls gathered near Sylvia after that.
"Can I join too?" Dorienne pointed to herself. She was also interested in hearing stories from other races.
"Sure, sure, please come closer then." Sylvia didn't mind it. She pointed at the nearby empty s.p.a.ce.
Dorienne smiled and left her father's side to gather with the girls.
The little beasts also wanted to listen to the exciting stories, except for Gio. They even lifted their ears to eavesdrop. While Osharus just folded his arms with a bit of curiosity.
"The story begins on a pitch black night. A group of five girls are in the middle of the forest with no light other than a dim lantern. They get lost without knowing the way out of the forest--" Sylvia began to tell a short fairy tale of what she had read.
Unfortunately, no one thought that it was a horror story until the middle. It was even more gripping and frightening because their current situation was somewhat similar.
"--When the leader of the group looked back to check why her friends were so quiet. She was utterly shocked to see no one there. She was alone, in the middle of the forest, with only a dim lantern in hand.
The fear and tremor slowly creep into her body. Her face instantly went pale, and she trembled uncontrollably. The silence was broken as a rustling sound suddenly sounded from behind. At that moment, she didn't even dare to look back. However, a black hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder." Sylvia immediately put on the black glove silently, then she put her hand on Dorienne's shoulder.
"Whaa, n-no, black hand! Demon, please don't kidnap me!" Dorienne was already feeling too tense and scared. She just screamed in fear and covered her face.
The pink mermaid turned out to be the timidest of the others. Sylvia only used it to tease the frightened girl.
"Hehe, it's not a demon, but it's my hand. Are you afraid, little mermaid? It's just a little horror story, no one was kidnapped here." Sylvia waved her glove-clad hand in front of her face with a dry laugh.
"You are so mean. But, no one was kidnapped? They disappeared one by one, right? Then, what did the forest-dwelling demon do to the other four girls? And what will that demon do to the leader girl?" Dorienne pursed her lips, but she was still curious about what might happen to the characters in the story.
"The demons eat them. Virgin girls are delicious to them." Sylvia smiled in response with an innocent expression.
"Wha-what!? That's more than one demon? T-they like to eat the girls? It's terrible, the land is terrible! That forest is terrible, whaa!" Dorienne immediately ran away to hide behind her father.
"Ho? Actually, the underwater world is one of the scariest if you want to know, the daughter of mine. Are you ready for that?" Osharus smiled helplessly to see his daughter's response.
"N-no, no more... I don't want to hear any horror or scary stories. Please don't burst my bubble. Just let me live in my peaceful little world." Dorienne shook her head in vehement refusal.
"Too bad. Pitiful child, she will only continue to live in her little world at this rate, oblivious to the cruel outside world." Sylvia shook her head. She felt pretty sympathetic.
"Sylvi." Elysia muttered softly.
"Y-yes?" For some reason, she felt a little tense to look at this friend of her.
"Hmm..." Elysia just stared at Sylvia in silence.
"Wh-what? Please don't look at me like that or I'll blush. Please say something or I won't know what you want to say. Or... Are you scared too, Ely?" Sylvia scratched her cheek and looked to the side awkwardly.
"It's nothing." Elysia canceled her intention to reprimand Sylvia.
She only glanced at her other friends. They were close to each other and holding hands, maybe out of fear? While Yuuki only gave Sylvia a deadpan expression as if it was the most boring story ever.
"Meh, it doesn't even scare me one bit. Not even a single fur on my tail is standing up. I have a real life story that is scarier, but I can read the mood. So, I will tell this story another time if you want to hear it." Yuuki gave a thumbs down to mock Sylvia.
"Heh~ I already said that it was just a light horror story. Are you challenging me, the expert in storytelling? Then, I wonder what you have. I want to see you scared to death like a scaredy cat." Sylvia folded her arms with an arrogant expression.
"Why are cats involved? We're not scaredy cats." Vanessa raised her hand and voiced her protest.
"Oh, ah, umm... It was just a play on words or conjecture. That doesn't mean I'm involving the cats or anything, okay?" Sylvia thought for a moment to revamp her statement just now. "Yuuki is a fox, so scaredy fox. Yeah, that's it."
"Well, here it is! I'm sure of this now. I'm ninety percent sure that my avatar is down there." Oceanid suddenly exclaimed while pointing at something below.
Instantly, everyone's attention was drawn to the designated direction. However, there was nothing but dark brown sandy soil at the bottom of the sea.
"Huh? Are you sure about that? There's nothing-" Nell was silent for a moment as she examined the designated spot once more with her magic vision. "There's a secret pa.s.sageway. It's buried two meters under that rather muddy ground. Shall we go down there now?"
"Isn't the answer obvious? That's why we're here." Oceanid stood up and prepared for a battle.
A set of water element full-body armor emerged out of nowhere and instantly enveloped his entire body.
"It'll be fine if I'm the only one going down there. I'll finish things quickly. Hopefully there isn't the contaminated waiting for me underground." Oceanid looked at everyone and informed in a loud and firm voice.
Rhea glanced at the secret underground pa.s.sage briefly, then she gave the nod to represent everyone. "You're wearing your divine armor, huh... Hm, alright, we'll follow you from behind and will help if it's necessary. You know what you need to do. Please don't act rashly or make stupid decisions."
"Understood. It's easy to destroy thousands of presumptuous mortals who dare to challenge me." Oceanid turned around and narrowed his eyes. His helmet covered his face entirely, and then he jumped out of the barrier.
*Bam!*
It only took a thump to the ground, a small whirlpool suddenly appeared, and a deep hole was created instantly.
Feeling that it wasn't enough, Oceanid brought his palms together. A ball of water formed there like a concentrated whirlpool.
"Who dares to touch my avatar!?" Oceanid threw the ball to the ground with a furious cry.
*Boom!*
The devastating power instantly caused an underwater explosion. The twenty-meter diameter hole was created, and Oceanid went straight into the hole at high speed.
