Chapter 290

It was time for Oliver and his team to go to the Antarctic ocean. Thirty minutes and the whole crew would leave.

Mikael and Furrneka were looking at them, Mikael had acquainted with the members the whole time he was in the guild. He got friendly with every person that even the girls started flirting with him, Furrneka was eyeing them with her fists ready to punch. She was proud of herself that she did not hurt anyone at all.

"Have a safe trip man!"

Mikael said to Oliver, he could see that Oliver is a great guy. The only bad thing about him is that he's so much into food that almost every hour he had food stuffed in his mouth.

"Thank you."

Oliver and Mikael had a handshake.

"Mikael, are you going to Australia?"

"Yeah, I have to meet Patriarch and Niña will meet me there too, I think.

He was not sure about the latter.

"Is that so."

Oliver nodded and decided to tell a story.

"Mikael, I will tell you a story. It's about a young orphan who almost died because of hunger. On his deathbed, the only thing he was thinking was food, he wanted to eat food. His dream was to eat every type of cuisine around the world and savor their unique taste…"

"What happened next?"

"Before he could die in the slums, an old woman helped him and take him to her house. The old woman took care of him and treated him like her grandson. She would always cook for him." Oliver smiled reminiscing about his grandmother. "The kid realized the importance of food. The greatest thing that he hated the most are people who waste food as if they were not essential. People who waste food are much worse than garbage, that is his motto."

"Huh? What's the moral of the story?"

Mikael tilted his head as he didn't get the story much.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

"Haha, none. I just want to say that I never saw you wasting any food. You are not a picky eater but you always liked dishes with rice!"

"… Hey you're starting to tell your life story. You're not gonna die, right?"

Mikael, don't jinx it.

Oliver laughed and started walking away. A large flying craft landed and the whole team entered. Mikael and Furrneka watched until the craft left.

Mikael smirked and held Furrneka's hand, they left the place.

…

"Are you sure that this is the place?"

Yuuki asked Kaya while she was looking around, the whole place was covered in ice and no evidence of life was apparent. Blizzard kept pouring down and their vision was not clear. They could only see ten meters ahead.

Kaya stepped up wearing a thick jacket. She drank a cold-resistant potion and nodded at Yuuki. She was carrying Shelly with her other arm as if the child was not heavy at all.

"Yeah, our evidence takes us to this place. The Shadow Demon is here. We don't know the reason but he is trying to talk to the Leviathan."

"I see."

The Leviathan was living in the Antarctic Ocean, it was a Legendary Creature but it was viscous like Fafnir. The Leviathan lives coexistence with the Earth and humanity. Although the Leviathan would get angry when someone would enter its territory, just like now.

Roar!!!

A powerful roar echoed and Shelley trembled, hiding her face over Kaya's jacket. Kaya tapped her head to reassure her that she was safe.

"… I think someone disturbed the Leviathan."

Jaya looked at the place where the suffocating pressure came from. Kaya didn't see Fafnir personally but she senses his power kilometers away from him when she was in Africa. Kaya was having the same sensation right now. She admitted that Legendary Creatures were built differently than any beast. Since their birth, they were already majestic and above any.

Yuuki started walking and Kaya followed her.

"Are you sure that you don't want to take Shelley to a safe place, I know some people who can take care of her?"

Kaya asked but the one who answered her was Shelley herself.

"It's okay sister Kaya, I want to help Yuuki Oneechan."

The little girl said with determination. Kaya shook her head, it seemed that she could never change her decision.

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

Yuuki came to them and gave Shelley a head pat which the little girl liked and snuggled her head against her warm hand.

They went to the place where danger was looming, they know that they might die if they trespassed the Leviathan's territory. Yet they were not afraid to lose their lives, they were already dead when they lost their loved ones. The only reason they kept thriving was for revenge and revenge only. Their hatred towards the Shadow Demon was so enormous that it was eating them alive.

Now, even trespassing Leviathan's territory was not frightening at all. Because they experienced true terror.

"Well, I can say that this place is the best for your Skills Yuuki. The Antarctic is your domain."

"…."

Yuuki didn't speak, just like always, she had a cold expression.

'I will kill him.'

Yuuki said in her mind. She created a new Skill just to kill the Shadow Demon. She didn't care if she lost her life, as long as she killed the Shadow Demon everything would be fine.

…

Speaking of the Shadow Demon, Delorio was under the ocean and he was using a potion to breathe in the water. He was bowing his head and waiting for the Leviathan's decision. He was sweating so hard despite being under the cold ocean.

It was an endless snake-like creature that had black scales looming around.

A vast sea creature was staring at him, the Leviathan was mad that someone entered his domain. The worst part was that it was a Demon, a disgusting pile of shit.

"Please the progenitor of Sin, please open the Gates of Hell to meet my Master."

"How dare a lowly Demon disturbed my rest. What insanity dares you to cross my habitat and hope that I will grant your wish.

To be fair, Delorio was not a lowly Demon but the Leviathan didn't care. Delorio lost almost all of his essence, the corruption was leaving his body and he was going to go crazy at any moment. In fact, he was already crazy.

"A fool who lost his reasoning and grinning in front of me despite knowing the danger."

The Leviathan was the first Demon Lord who held the throne of Sin of Envy. He had the power to open the Hates of Hell and invade this world. Yet he didn't dare to, he was already tired of the endless battle of their species. Of course he won't help Delorio at all.
