Omega Summoner

The waters around the kingdom suddenly became chaotic as the Sea King of King Neptune became enraged. Even the weaker tiered leviathans became fearful when it emitted the deafening roar. The leviathans around them suddenly weakened which made the merfolk strengthen their attacks against them.

King Neptune is still heavily injured though and is about to get entangled by Ursalla when water tornadoes suddenly surrounded him. It prevented the Reaper and Spear Spark from getting in the way as those water tornadoes could easily damage their flesh.

"Interesting! A Sea King raised by the blood of a merfolk king properly could exceed their powers. It is almost near the mythical tier. I will dominate you once your owner is made into my slave!" Ursalla stated as she used the Eye of Poseidon to cancel the skill of the Sea King.

The Sea King managed to buy enough time for its master to breath and revert back to his merfolk form. It did not negate the damage that he suffered though as the wound is still present. His body might have become small, but the injury is still present.

Ursalla also reverted back to her smaller form as it also taken a toll on her stamina. Also, it would be uncomfortable fighting King Neptune in her larger form as she will take more hits due to her bigger form. For now, she had the upper hand which is she is not taking more measures to defeat him. She will relish the taught of the previous king she served as a half dead man.

"I am surrounded. I surely have no luck in this world." Levin Cloud chucked as his preparations are already finished.

He managed to cover the whole area in sea plant life. He knows that he is more powerful when he is amongst greenery which is why he forcefully attracted all the plants in the vicinity to come towards him. Thankfully, even sea plant life considers him as a leader among them as a leshy.

"Need to buy as much time as possible first. I am already running low on life energy just by forcefully growing all these plants. Bramble Cage! Flower Enhancement!" Levin Cloud stated.

The sea plant life that surrounded him suddenly formed a dome around him that protected him from external attacks. After that, flowers suddenly started to bloom from the sea plant life as the defense provided by the Bramble Cage is enhanced. The Deep Assassins started to bash the dome attempting to kill him and get to the Splash of the Wilde.

"You guys are lucky because I cannot transform to my true form or else, I would have turned all of you into fish balls!" Levin Cloud shouted at the Deep Assassins which seemed to have agitated the monsters even more.

The Deep Assassins were tearing at the layers of Bramble Cage and even the enhancement cannot completely block them. Levin Cloud could not help but pour mana into the spell so that it would continue to glow but stopping numerous enemies is not as easy as one can imagine. The most reliable one in their party that can deal damage to large number of enemies is currently lost at sea.

"Achoo! Someone must be talking bad about me." Adrian stated as he looked at the state of the Sea King Leviathan eggs while rubbing his nose.

"How are my babies, blessed one?" The Sea King asked Adrian.

"They are good, but I need to tell you something about the eggs. It seems that they have little life energy left. Have they taken too long for them to hatch?" Adrian asked the Sea King.

"You are correct, blessed one. It usually takes two years for my babies to hatch but it is already ten years, but they have yet to hatch. I fear they might turn to stone this year if they do not hatch. I have seen other eggs that became stone as some of my brothers and sisters did not hatch as well." The Sea King stated.

"I shall try my best. You said that leviathan eggs hatch faster when exposed to the blood of a merfolk. Is that absolutely true?" Adrian asked as he did not want to just randomly stroll to a merfolk and suddenly ask for their blood.

"I heard from the other leviathans that merfolk royalty blood is what increases the chances for our eggs to hatch. It is not absolute, but it also increases the chance for a mutation if it is purer. Unlike other leviathans, I do not like going to the merfolk as they would surely ask for one of my eggs if I asked them for help." The Sea King replied.

"I see. Maybe…it is not the merfolk blood that is affecting them but the small amounts of Asmodian blood present in their body. Royalty should be purer than others which is why the merfolk royal family's blood is needed." Adrian muttered to himself.

"I ask you, blessed one of the Goddess of Life. Please help my children to hatch. I will gladly sacrifice my core as long as my children are safely hatched." The Sea King stated.

"Let us discuss the reward after I hatch them successfully." Adrian replied as he started to inject life energy to the three eggs as he wanted to try his blood theory.

When the three eggs are sufficiently filled with life energy, Adrian suddenly made a small cut on his finger as his blood started to ooze out. He did this in an environment that is not filled with water as the Sea King manipulated the water so that Adrian's blood will not flow with the water.

Adrian just used one drop of blood per egg, and he could suddenly feel that two of the three eggs started to get filled with immense energy. He looked at the last egg that did not move and tried one more drop of blood but there was no reaction unlike the other two.

Adrian activated his evil eye and then saw why it showed no reaction. The egg or rather the sea king that is supposed to be inside of it is soulless. Unlike the other two that showed reaction, the last one is just a husk filled with life energy. It seems that just supplying life energy is not enough to hatch them as their souls are also needed.

Adrian told the Sea King about the news, but he was comforted with motherly love. The Sea King did not hold a grudge and just told Adrian that it is nature for some to not hatch. Adrian did not like this as it is very painful for a mother to see its child die but he did his best at least. Even if he injected more life energy, a being without a soul will never be born.

After Adrian told the Sea King of the news, she stopped manipulating the waters. The eggs and Adrian are once again underwater. As soon as this happened, the two eggs suddenly started to wiggle as they started to hatch. Joy overcame the sadness that the Sea King experienced of learning the news as her two newborns are about to come out.

The two eggs cracked simultaneously, and the appearance of the two baby sea kings came into view. They were extremely cute to the point that Adrian wanted to pinch their bodies. He did not do so out of respect for the Sea King.

Adrian is enjoying the cuteness when he saw that the baby sea kings looked like sea turtles in their baby forms. Also, one of the two sea king babies are of a different color as it had a silver shine compared to the orange hue that a normal sea king has. He wanted to check if this baby sea king is sick, but its soul is bright and healthy.

"I cannot believe it. A mutated one. The chances are one in eight thousand one hundred ninety-two." The Sea King muttered.

"You mean the silver one is a mutated one? Is it more powerful than a normal sea king?" Adrian asked.

"Not much but she will be more attractive to other sea kings. She will be a troublemaker in the future." The Sea King replied.

"I see. Maybe it also has some odd abilities but to think that they look like sea turtles. Sorry if that offended you." Adrian stated as his thought came out of his mouth.

"No need blessed one. Our species is said to have been born from the union of an octopus leviathan king and a turtle dragon which is why we look like turtles at the beginning of our lives. Some Sea Kings even have small amounts of dragon blood in them which is why they look more like dragons. If you look at me, my head looks more like a lower draconic species, and I also have enhanced intelligence due to the dragon blood in me albeit faint." The Sea King stated.

"Oh! I learn something new every day." Adrian stated as he suddenly earned two titles.

[You have earned the Underwater Egg Hatcher title.]

[You have earned the Friend of the Great Sea King title.]
