"Hold! State your business here overworlders!" The captain of the merfolk guards stated as the guards encircled them and pointed their tridents at the three.
"We come in peace." Levin Cloud stated but Peridot's dragon tail hit his head for his bad joke.
"I come as the representative of the Wilde." Kabrakan stated which made the merfolk guard captain shudder.
The merfolk guard captain then looked at Kabrakan and noticed that he is indeed a terramorph. They also smell like that they did not eat a mermaid's scale to gain the ability to breath underwater which is why they are not hostile.
There have been some overworlders that are catching weak merfolk in order to sell their scales at a high level. Seeing that the trio did not have the smell of a mermaid on them while also traversing the so-called Leviathan Fields, the guard captain reluctantly let them inside.
"We will let you inside, but the dragon mount must stay here." The merfolk guard captain stated as it thought that Peridot is a sea dragon mount owned by Kabrakan.
"Mount! How rude! Even the esteemed masters of the eastern continent will not utter that in front of me." Peridot stated as she started to revert to her humanoid form. She was greatly offended by the words of the merfolk guard captain. It seems that the mindset of a dragon is already imprinted on her mind.
When the merfolk guard captain saw Peridot transforming into a humanoid form, he shuddered a bit as only pure-blooded dragons have that ability. He thought that Peridot is a sea dragon which is a class of lesser dragons, but he was wrong. The merfolk guard captain hurriedly bowed and begged for forgiveness. Fortunately for him, Peridot is too tired to even mess with him which is why she just brush it off.
"I have already sent one of my men to tell of your situation to the imperial palace. Please wait here for the time being. Still, as expected of the one chosen by the Wilde. All of you came out of the Leviathan Fields unscathed. It is a miracle that you are actually in once piece as even our finest warriors will lose a fin or two." The merfolk guard captain stated which made the three question what these Leviathan Fields are.
The merfolk guard captain explained to them that the Leviathan Fields are the most dangerous area near the merfolk kingdom. It is home to the fearsome monster's species of the sea, the Leviathans. Only those who are lucky can make it out unscathed while those that are not become fish food. The trio gulped upon hearing this description and worried for their friend.
"Should we go back for him?" Peridot asked.
"No. All of us already decided that we will meet in the merfolk kingdom if we get separated. We can just contact him later in real life that we already reached it. Anyways, we already mentioned that we have a demon companion named Equinox to the guards. They will notify as when he arrives." Kabrakan stated.
The two nodded as it is actually Adrian that made that rule since they do not know what might happen underwater. Instead of waiting for them to gather together, it is much better for them to proceed with the mission while the ones lost finds the way. As long as Kabrakan has support, they will continue with the quest at hand.
"He will not be lost right? Among the four of us, he is the one with bad sense of direction." Peridot wondered.
"The path is just straight north so he will not be lost." Kabrakan reassured.
"I am officially lost." Adrian admitted to himself.
He was able to kill off the Reaper but that also meant that his sense of direction was messed up. He got thrashed violently which made him forget the direction that his three friends swam on. The waters that he is currently in has no markings or special landmarks to assess.
The compass of the map is not even working as the world map that he is in possession does not have detailed navigation of the seas below. He asked Kanlaon if he could trace Peridot's dragon aura, but water is not like air that could carry a scent.
"Paradox, do you have a way to reduce the probability of which direction my friends went?" Adrian asked his ego weapon.
"Negative. Master did not ask me to mark the targets which is why I did not take of them greatly. But if you want the direction they swam when the fight started then please turn 30 degrees to your right and swim forward." The Cube of Paradox replied with a robotic tone.
"Let us go Kanlaon!" Adrian commanded as he took hold of his five-meter-long Genesis Dragon.
Twenty minutes have passed but he could not see any traces of his friends. What is worse is that he could not even see a trace of civilization as he is now in an area where there are lots of shining corals. He did not know if he circled or is just terrible with directions, but this is certainly not the way to the merfolk kingdom.
What made Adrian believe that he is in the wrong area is the fact that giant monsters that are the combination of whale and a manta ray are swimming next to him. Each of this great beast are at least forty meters long and fifty meters wide.
