Chapter 78. Go to Sleep, Monster
Luke was startled, and his hand movements became chaotic.
"Calm down, Luke," Char consoled.
He had expected this situation. After all, Mayenne was not a dragon that had been sleeping for thousands of years.
He controlled the speed of the dagger's penetration, but strangely, not a drop of blood flowed out.
This was because Luke's chest was empty.
His heart was hidden in the position of Mayenne's heart.
The Sea Monster's heart was hidden in the depths of the ocean, locked in a box, hidden on a cursed ship.
In other words, although the dagger had pierced through Luke's heart, the one who really felt the pain was Mayenne, but the source of his weakness was Luke.
Luke did not know that there was such a thing. He had always thought that he was a normal child.
"What's going on, Char?"
The siblings actually asked the same question in unison.
As soon as his voice came out, it was interrupted by Mayenne's angry roar.
Eight tentacles rose from the bottom of the water and slammed down. The lake water and sharp gravel came flying at him!
"Mia, [God Light Protection]!"
A golden eggshell bloomed from the girl's palm and wrapped the three of them inside, blocking the waves caused by the sea monster.
Char wiped off the water on her face and said to Luke, who had already stabilized, "It's up to you now. Can you really persuade it to go back? Your sister's barrier can last for a minute, but I won't let her do that, because it will greatly hurt her. Do you understand what I mean?"
Luke nodded.
"You feel bad for her."
"Yes, she is the angel that the Seven Holy Spirits gave me."
"But the angel beside you last time wasn't her."
"Ahem!"
Char turned her head away in embarrassment, avoiding Luke's playful gaze.
This little brat.
Luke relaxed.
He gestured to Char, who nodded and took Mia's hand. The golden eggshell shield disappeared instantly.
At the same time, Mayenne's tentacle hood came down hard. Char rolled to the side with Mia in her arms and barely avoided the attack, but her back was hit by the flying gravel, and her HP dropped rapidly.
Fortunately, he was carrying a healer in his arms. Mia raised her little hand, and her HP rose steadily again.
Then, the flying sand and stones came back.
Mia healed him again.
In just a few dozen seconds, he was like a silly pool in an elementary school math problem, with water flowing in.
That was really satisfying.
That was not the end. Mayenne's other tentacles also swung over, like a four-handed piano. For a moment, the sand and stones on the shore were flying. The residents of Astan City could hear the rumbling of thunder in broad daylight, and it came from underground?
What was even more strange was that although the giant Sea Monster's movements were wild and its momentum was great, it was very careful to avoid Luke.
Most of the young man's body was frozen in the ice coffin, and his lips were a little white because of the cold air.
There was a dagger in his chest, and it was still gradually sinking into his body as he exerted more force.
With every inch it sank in, Luke's face turned paler, and Mayenne's movements became more rough, as if it was struggling in extreme pain. Unfortunately, it was just an incompetent rage.
Luke suddenly stopped and turned his head with difficulty. His gaze passed through the gap in the ice coffin and met Mayenne's amber eyes.
This was the first time he saw a pleading look in the monster's eyes.
The young man grinned.
"Char is right. We are different.
"I'm not as timid as you, and I'm not as weak as I think I am.
"Go to sleep, monster."
The teenager's white lips touched up and down as he said this. It was like a declaration of a victor.
Then, he forcefully stabbed the dagger into his own chest.
"Ugh..."
Mayenne whimpered unwillingly, and a moment later, the tentacle drooped weakly on the ground, retracted with the last bit of strength, and then slowly sank into the depths.
Although it did not suffer any harm, it only felt pain. However, Luke's successful suicide had put him into a state of suspended animation, and correspondingly, Mayenne would also enter a similar state of suspended animation.
Luke was the leader of the two, which was the rule set by Fredrick.
After everything was settled, Char helped Mia up from the sand.
The ice coffin had been completely formed, and Luke was lying quietly inside, his hands still holding the dagger.
"Char..."
Mia tugged at the corner of his clothes.
"You will save him, right?"
Char smiled and wiped the dust off the girl's face.
"I will save all of you."
Char, who was a level 20 Elementalist, cast [Ice Casket] on the level 5 Luke. Based on the latter's resistance, it could last for at least a week in a cold environment, and the temperature underground was not that high either.
The real purpose of him bringing Mia down was to save Mayenne and not to save Luke.
Although the giant Sea Monster would not die, it would lose control of part of its body in this state of suspended animation. Then, this part of its soft body would rot and maggots would grow in the water. It was a terrible scene.
The maggots would attract the fish in the underground river, and the fish would attract the monsters who lived on them. The monsters' movements would attract the guards.
It was very troublesome.
Mia raised her scepter, which was taller than her own people, and cast [Purification] and disease removal spells over and over again, trying to get rid of all the dirty things on this giant creature.
The dispersing light flickered, illuminating the dark underground.
With this light, Char jumped into the water.
He was going to look for something on Mayenne's body.
Although the giant monster was introduced to Fredrick by Zin'rokh, it was not a creature of the abyss.
How should he put it? It was impossible to create such a handsome face in the dark abyss.
Yes, that was the truth. In the eyes of Sea Monsters, Mayenne was considered handsome.
Zin'rokh could not explain Mayenne's origins, but the Destroyer of Worlds was best at making the best use of everything, using the native creations to destroy the native lands. So, he took out Mayenne's heart and sealed it in a box with mana. He also hid the box on the fastest ghost ship in the Andres Sea and sent a signal to the cursed creatures, saying that Mayenne was chasing them.
The ghost ship was running in front, and Mayenne was chasing behind.
One did not eat or drink and had endless stamina, while the other was a natural monster with almost unlimited stamina.
Mayenne had naively chased after the ship for 10000 years, and even though it had unlimited stamina, it was exhausted.
At the same time, Fredrick followed Zin'rokh's instructions, he went to the deep sea and captured this weak creature.
What Char was looking for was the container he used, which was hidden somewhere on the surface of Mayenne's body.
After diving for seven or eight times, Char finally confirmed his position. He plunged into the water and dived deep into it like a torpedo without looking back.
A few minutes later, he emerged from the water with a small bottle in his hand.
The bottle was about 30 centimeters long, and it seemed to contain a small piece of calm ocean.
On the sea, there was a sailboat floating on the water.
The Black Pearl.
