Chapter 940

"Should we actually help out and kill some of the Leviathans?" Kabrakan asked the two.

"Nope. We are not heroes and also, they are the first ones to be hostile towards us. I am not a great martyr that will forgive those that tried to harm us." Peridot stated.

"I agree. If those leviathans did not attack just now, then we would have been trapped in a place that might not even have sunlight. We would have died though due to the lack of air, but she is not that lucky." Levin Cloud added.

'',

"So, we go to plan 'Steal it and Retreat'." Kabrakan stated as this is the plan that they have concocted if things go south.

"We are not stealing. We are just retrieving something that should be given to us. It is a piece of a divine item after all. They do not own it in the first place." Levin Cloud stated as he explained that they are not doing anything bad.

"You have been hanging out with Adrian too much." Both Peridot and Kabrakan muttered to each other as that is one of the famous lines that Adrian uses to justify some missions.

The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla is starting to grow impatient as the leviathans under her control have yet to destroy the barrier protecting the merfolk kingdom. She decided to become more proactive as she raised the Eye of Poseidon. It should have been untainted, but it is now filled with miasma which is why the clear blue color it had is now dark blue.

"Show them despair! Wrath of the Dark God slumbering in the Sea!" The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla shouted as numerous tentacles suddenly came out of the Eye of Poseidon.

The Eye of Poseidon did not have this spell engraved inside of it, but it is the result of the divine artifact being poisoned by the miasma of a dark god. All the spells inside of it is now tainted and will call power from the dark god instead of the God of the Seas Poseidon.

The tentacles that came out of the Eye of Poseidon manifested from miasma that came from the depths of the sealed dark god. The dark god can now use the Eye of Poseidon as a catalyst to affect the things around. It is now considered as an artifact that can bring about his full resurrection.

The Eye of Poseidon might be powerful, but it lacks an energy source that can fuel the dark god's resurrection. Since the Eye of Poseidon pulls energy from the god it is connected with, it cannot provide power to unseal a dark god. The Splash of the Wilde is needed for an energy source that will greatly destroy the seal of the Dark God Slumbering in the Seas.

The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla has full support of this dark god which is why she controlled as much leviathans as she can. She will sacrifice the all the merfolk that casted her away for the dark god that she serves. As the dark god that she serves, is just sealed in the area near the Merfolk Kingdom of Atlantis.

The Dark God Slumbering in the Seas is sealed at the Leviathan Fields. Its presence there is also one of the reasons why the leviathans are born. It is also one of the reasons why the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla managed to control twenty leviathans due to the power of the dark god.

At first, only about three tentacles made of miasma appeared and started bashing on the barrier. As time passed, more and more tentacles started to emerge as the dark god seemed to be impatient. After the thirtieth tentacle that slammed on the barrier, it finally broke into pieces, but the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla is extremely fatigued.

Even though she is pulling power from the dark god, she herself also needed to use her own mana. The merfolk assassins thought that they could kill her as she is exhausted but something unspeakable suddenly happened.

The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla suddenly used her tentacles to rip the soul out of a leviathan. The leviathan's soul is then devoured by the Eye of Poseidon. Some of the energy that the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla lost is suddenly recovered. The merfolk assassins that tried attacking her saw this but cannot retreat immediately.

The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla used the smaller tentacles that she created and bound the merfolk assassins. Since the merfolk assassins are caught, they could only lament as they died being eaten by the leviathans. The death of the merfolk assassins became the fuel for the rage felt but the merfolk army.

The merfolk army charged bravely to kill the leviathans as more of their people will become food for these beasts if they do not kill them. Each royal merfolk family member with their guards faced a leviathan while King Neptune himself came to kill the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla himself.

"It seems that casting you out was my worst decision that I have uttered. I should have given the order to kill you when you sacrificed one of my grandchildren to your perverted god." King Neptune stated.

"Cast me out? Do not make yourself delusional. I escaped with all my might after your hounds chased me to the ends of the seas. If you have just agreed with me then Atlantis might have become a powerhouse by now. The Kraken and Scyllas would be bowing down to us with fear!" The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla stated with a maddened toned.

The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla's hatred for the Kraken and Scylla race runs deep as her parents died in the war against them. In fact, Atlantis is a kingdom that has just been made for about two centuries since the merfolk are often driven out by the Kraken and the Scylla race.

The merfolk might be great underwater combatants, but they are not the best. The Kraken and Scylla race are hardcore combatants since the waters that they are born in are harsher. The Kraken and Scylla kingdom is located at the very heart of the Sea of Monsters unlike Atlantis that is just at the edge.

"Once I devour this ungrateful kingdom then I will move onto the Kraken and Scylla races. I will decimate their entire race as revenge for the pain and suffering that they have inflicted upon me." The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla shouted as she released miasma that infused with the bodies of the leviathans.

The already bulky bodies of the leviathans became firmer and increased by half a meter. The eyes of the leviathans turned red as they became berserk. The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla wanted complete destruction of the merfolk kingdom now that she remembered her wicked resolve.

"You think that you are the only one that controls a leviathan!" King Neptune stated as he raised his trident high.

The leviathan field that is right next to the kingdom of Atlantis suddenly started to crack as a monster of epic proportions suddenly emerged from beneath it. A Sea King that is clearly greater than other normal sea kings came from the ocean floor. The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla is not shocked upon this discovery as this is also one of the fruits of her labor.

She managed to steal a Sea King egg from a weakened female Sea King, but it did not hatch with just her help. The blood of the merfolk royal family seemed to be good nutrient for leviathans. This Sea King is nurtured by King Neptune himself when they discovered this fact. It is now one of the most powerful mounts that King Neptune has.

In fact, one of the things that the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla came here to do is get the blood of merfolk royalty. She will hatch the hundreds of leviathan eggs that she amassed with their blood. Just like what she did to one of the king's grandsons when she hatched a leviathan.

"Did you not think that I am not prepared for this?" The Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla shouted as she too summoned a leviathan that is familiar to King Neptune.

The leviathan that she summoned is a Reaper that is two times bigger than an average one. It seems that the blood of the merfolk royal family is not just a normal thing to hatch leviathans. It also has the capability of evolving the leviathan or making it mutate.

"You dare bring that beast! This is good! I will kill you and that beast that fed on the blood of my grandson!" King Neptune shouted as him and the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla started their clash.

Meanwhile…amidst the chaos happening outside, the trio is following Kabrakan to a place inside the castle. He could feel the Splash of the Wilde calling out to him in a somewhat weakened voice. It is crying out as something is trying to pollute it. It seems the Wicked Sea Sorceress Ursalla is not the only one that is a follower of the dark god.
