Chapter 104: Dirty Little Tramp, And Her Idiot Of A Flying Father

I had never seen anything like the colossal horned four-story tall octopus that was floating forward into full view. I was still nearly three stories tall, but this creature was vast and looked like it wanted to get handsy with all those tentacles.

What could this female creature want with me? What was this thing anyway? Octopus didn't have horns or grow this big.

Yup, there I go again with that idiot first-world brain. It didn't matter what this grayish blush multi-armed horned disaster looked like, it seemed to have a problem with me, and I needed to deal with it.

"Who are you, and what do you want?" I asked after Hydie fed me air to fill my big lungs.

"Me? I am The Goddess of the Sea! What do I want? It's quite simple, I will consume you, and then I will reform and bind your body with my magic! After that, I will empower you and use your system to help me finally kill that dirty little tramp and her idiot of a flying father! KACK KACK KA KA!" The Gray Turd announced to me, and I had the decency not to burst out laughing.

So, this was a Kraken who tried to eat her child, Tiga, the Mantiken. Now she wanted to use me to finish the job?

I was going to lay the hurt into this old witch, but I had some questions I wanted to try to get her to answer. I wanted to know more about the ocean, and something as ugly and old as this creature was likely to have the knowledge, regardless of how insane she was.

"Is that really your laugh? Also, what is a horned octopus-like you want with the girl? She isn't in the water, so why should it affect you? You rule the sea, and from what I understand, she isn't likely to come and take over. What are you doing hanging around here and not ruling the rest of the sea?" I asked, crossing my arms, about preparing to switch Pacts at a moment's notice.

I looked behind me briefly, and the Sahuagin, and now Barracuda men. They were all gathered together shaking in fear; previous quarrels were forgotten for the moment.

Then I realized what was happening, and I uncrossed my arms back, and they all moved back. I needed to stop antagonizing the sea witch; I wasn't affected by the Fear pressure that the Kraken was generating, but everyone else was, yet this creature wasn't as strong as Nixi.

"What do you think you can do to stop me? The child has half of my power sealed within it. Once I kill the failure, I will be returned to my full strength!" The Kraken snarled at me, and then her tentacles shot for me.

I was ready, and I activated my Fire Force Pact; not the best choice typically, since I was in the water, but the Pact only fully activated once I had stored up enough energy. Hydie was the buffer, and that concerned me.

I grabbed the first tentacle that reached me and then squeezed down as hard as I could. The effect was immediate, and the rest of the tentacles flared out of control as I closed my fist to flatten the tentacle just like a yogurt tube.

A bolt of something struck me in the front of my left shoulder, but my body and Hydie absorbed it. The Kraken was screaming at me to let go because it had literally squeezed the guts out of the tentacle, and she had only come just within range of me.

"Are you sure that the fire totem is a good idea? You might attract unwanted attention," Hydie asked me as I stepped back and grabbed up a bit higher, about to crush it, but I had to shrink down to my normal size last second.

There was a massive stalagmite of coral that passed through the area that I just was in with great speed. Then, after it was gone, I expanded again, but I no longer had a hold of the tentacle.

"I am going to enjoy consuming you, Mortal! I will revel in joy as I grind your body into paste!" The creature spat, but I rushed forward as she was speaking.

A flurry of tentacles tried to stop me, but I crushed any in my way, and then I was hit with a flurry of chromatic-looking blots. I assumed that they must be magic, or some type of energy, because my Fire Force Pact devoured them, and they just sunk into me.

Both Hydie and I were completely absorbing all the magical or energy attacks, but that was the Pact ignited. The lines of the Fire Force Pact burned up my body like veins of burning lava, and then I exploded with bright pink light.

That made the Kraken close her eyes from the brightness. I used the opening to grab onto two of the horns on the top of her head.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE! YOU DON'T KNOW, AHHHH!" The Goddess screamed as I rammed both my knees into both her closed eyes.

There was a horrible squishing noise, and then I was knocked back from the flailing tentacles as the creature squealed. I was emitting an intense amount of pink light, and I could see far-off shadows that were moving, massive shadows.

"I Hope the Night Harbingers get you all, you filthy creature," The Kraken screamed as she retreated, trying to get out of my burning light.

I switched back to the Water Force Pact, and the light had disappeared, but the damage was done. I turned back to the Men that were moving back to me with worried looks, and I couldn't blame them.

I had seen two shadows that made the now retreated Kraken look like an average-looking octopus with horns. They could be one of two types of ocean creatures, and I really hope it was one and not the other.

"Get everyone as fast as you can; leave everything behind, and we need to get back to the Sahuagins village where the water is much shallower here. I don't think that whatever is coming will be looking to talk, now!" I told the two groups of me and yelled the last part to get them moving.

That was the shadow of a massive shark that had to be three times the size of a Blue Whale.

A Megalodon, or this world's equivalent.
