Chapter 593 The Primordial Beast
A few minutes earlier...
Victor and Lenny, the moment they were whisked away from the arena's chaos, found themselves thrust into an otherworldly realm. But it wasn't solid ground that greeted them; it was an entire world made of water.
They were submerged thousands of feet beneath the surface, yet, to their amazement, they could still breathe as effortlessly as if they were standing on land. This wasn't just any aquatic world; it was a place where the rules of reality danced to a different rhythm.
As they looked around, the expanse of liquid stretched into the unseen depths, the water clear and shimmering with an ethereal glow. It was a surreal feeling, being surrounded by water yet untouched by its weight.
Their movements were not hindered; instead, they discovered they could only navigate this aquatic world by swimming. Every stroke through the water felt like a dance, a fluid grace that matched the strange beauty of their surroundings.
Suddenly, a powerful surge of energy rippled through the water, causing a subtle vibration in the liquid around them.
Intrigued, Victor and Lenny turned to witness the source of this extraordinary force.
Emerging from the depths was a behemoth of a creature, a majestic being twice the size of a whale. But what set it apart were its extraordinary features. Instead of gills, it boasted colossal wings that glided through the water with a mesmerizing grace. Webbed feet propelled it forward, creating a harmonious blend of aquatic and airborne elegance.
The creature's presence was awe-inspiring. Its scales shimmered in hues that mirrored the spectrum of the sea, catching the ambient light in a dazzling display.
The wings, reminiscent of an otherworldly dragon, undulated with a rhythmic power that seemed to defy the laws of physics. As the creature approached, it regarded Victor and Lenny with eyes that gleamed with an intelligence as deep as the ocean itself.
In this realm where liquid was both their environment and sustenance, the encounter with this colossal, winged aquatic marvel left Victor and Lenny in a state of wonder. The water, though it surrounded them, felt like a haven rather than a barrier. The creature's majestic presence was a testament to the boundless wonders that awaited them in this extraordinary world where the rules of reality were rewritten and every moment held the promise of discovery.
Initially, Victor and Lenny believed the colossal creature had its eyes fixed upon them. However, upon closer inspection, Lenny discerned that what he had thought were eyes were, in reality, just two dark shades in front, creating a deceptive illusion of a watchful gaze.
As their scrutiny intensified, a remarkable revelation unfolded before them. The creature's head boasted over a hundred openings, each revealing giant eyeballs as red as rubies. These orbs, reminiscent of precious gemstones, shone with an enchanting radiance that transformed the world around them into a vibrant tapestry of red hues.
The beauty of these crimson eyes, glowing like rubies in the water's embrace, cast an otherworldly ambiance. The red light, emanating from the multitude of eyes, danced upon the liquid canvas, turning the aquatic world into a mesmerizing panorama of scarlet brilliance. The water, once clear and translucent, now bore the reflection of the creature's magnificent gaze, creating an ethereal landscape of red-tinged wonder.
In the presence of this aquatic marvel, with its deceptive shades and a plethora of ruby-red eyes, Victor and Lenny found themselves immersed not only in the water that surrounded them but also in a world aglow with the stunning allure of crimson radiance.
The creature's gaze, though not directed at them, painted the underwater realm in a palette of red so resplendent that it felt like they were suspended in a sea of rubies, captivated by the magical spectacle unfolding in the heart of this extraordinary aquatic world.

Lenny chuckled, "Oh there is no need for that. I already know a lot about this big guy." Lenny thought to himself. Besides, in front of such a creature that Lenny was most certain was a peak Great Demon rank existence, he rather save his magic points in case of an emergency. n.)o-.v(/e..L((b(.I/)n
Also, Lenny believed that he and this Behemoth of a creature have long been in a hurry to meet one another.
As Lenny stood close to Victor, his hand moved to push Victor forward. The youngster had been so taken by the awe of the creature that he had forgotten what to do.
Victor, encouraged to get himself back, suddenly swam forward, and then he bowed respectfully. "Great Primordial Beast, I am Victor, son of Alpha Scarlet and the New Alpha of the City of Milk and Honey. As it is tradition, I am here to..."
*SWISH!*
Long tentacles the size of thick ropes used onboard ships rushed out from the Primordial Beast's body, grabbing Victor and then pulling him closer.
Instinctively, victor tried to pull away, but it was no use. He turned to Lenny, "Lenny! help me!!" However, Lenny did not even move from where he stood.
Instead, as he watched on, he had a conniving smile on his face.
A sudden realization that Victor did not want to believe settled on his mind.
Something was not right, and he knew of a truth—that what he felt in his heart was true. He had just been sold out.
He did not know why, and worse of all, he did not know what he had done to the primordial beast who was the guardian of his people.
After all, all their lives, all they had done was praise and worship it.
Victor struggled all he could, even going as far as to activate his werewolf form however, there was no use.
From the top of the head of the Primordial beast spikes suddenly appeared. Victor was pulled closer until he was impaled on these spikes.
