Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

153 Chapter 153

The duo moved through the darkness with very careful moves. They were now basically in the domain of one of the sea king fishes and it could be something that could outrage the monster.

Luckily, the fish seemed to have gone far away as they didn't sense its presence anymore.

So, almost too calmly, they reached the place they intended to go to safely with no actual harm.

"Wow…" An impressed voice came out of Acht's mouth intentionally. His eyes sparkled with admiration as he witnessed one of the most beautiful things he had ever seen in his life.

Under them directly was shiny ground. The color of this place was an azure blue that contrasted the dark color of the sea.

This beautiful light was as if Acht got submerged into a fairytale of dreams, far beyond what any human could ruin with their hands.

He went down to take a better look and much to his surprise, it turned out that the source of this light was not the ground itself but a huge number of pearls.

Each pearl was crystal clear with a small source of energy inside them that could be seen emitting this beautiful light. In a single moment, this place turned from a sea of dreams into a shiny sky filled with blue stars.

Acht felt his body calm down subconsciously at this sight and his mind became as calm as a lake. It was almost akin to a hypnotic effect.

Lein also stopped for a moment to appreciate this scene but she didn't last long as she shook her head and focused on her task. She had already seen these soul Lapis ores many times before.

"Enough sightseeing. Let's get done with this job and leave." She said as she descended to the ground slowly, trying not to step on one of the soul Lapis ores.

"They are very fragile so be careful."

Then, she touched one of them before pulling it gently from the ground with extreme care.

The first one she pulled was a big one, the size of her whole palm.

The other rocks were also the same size with some small variations.

Acht also followed suit and tried to harvest a few soul Lapis ores. He made sure he didn't crush them with his hand.

"How many should I collect?"

"Ten or so. Choose the big ones."

After a few minutes of collecting ores, Acht stored them in his spatial ring. He did feel slightly bad for ruining a very beautiful sight like this but there was nothing that could be done in this situation.

"By the way, where is the great wall? I can't see it?" He asked.

Lein didn't speak and just walked a few meters in a certain direction.

Then, she extended her arm. Immediately, her palm seemed to touch some kind of surface.

This small touch created a wave of energy that dissipated around her, showing a clear hue of a transparent barrier.

It was quite surprising to see this scene. He had never expected this great wall to be transparent and also barely a few meters away from him without him being able to detect it.

'Is it not made out of energy?' He thought to himself as he also approached the barrier and touched it with his hand to inspect it thoroughly.

It was sturdy but also fragile, creating a weird contrast that should not exist normally.

Acht then knocked on it a few times, each knock creating a ripple through the whole barrier that dissipates in the form of waves.

"Let's go now," Lein spoke to him as she swam up.

He also turned around and was about to leave. That's when he saw something weird to the side, not that far away.

It was something that was very hard to see but because of the angle and also the light from the soul Lapis ores, he was able to detect it.

So, he swam there and grabbed this weird thing. Much to his surprise, it was a transparent piece that eerily resembles the barrier…or to be more precise, it was indeed a piece of the barrier.

He turned it around a few times before he called Lein.

"You might wanna see this." He said.

"Hm?" Lein didn't understand and came back to him.

He gave her the particle and could clearly see the change in her expression the moment she understood what it was. Her rather calm and collected expression crumbled and was replaced by deep shock.

She couldn't believe what she saw.

"There is no way…" the woman muttered under her breath and tried to calm down.

Then, like a crazy person, she rushed to the barrier and started touching it and knocking on it multiple times.

Acht watched her actions silently, seeing her being that distressed, he also turned serious.

After countless knocks and inspections, she was able to find something very important.

As if she was frozen, she stood silent, just looking ahead of her, seemingly in a trance.

"The great wall…it's crumbling." She muttered in disbelief.

"Little shit, we need to leave right fucking now. This is very fucking serious."

She almost shouted and swam back up as fast as she could.

But, before she could move forward, a loud sound followed by a strong shockwave stopped her in her place.

The two immediately looked to the side.

'This sound…Don't tell me.' Acht thought to himself with a click of his tongue.

A horrible idea came to his mind and he immediately swam up.

He tried to tell Lein to move when the sound assaulted his ears again with an even stronger shockwave that almost sent him flying away.

He barely was able to balance himself since the water was heavy enough but that didn't make him any calmer.

Then, as if to make the situation even worse, a huge silhouette, big enough to cover a whole city appeared on top of them.

"RAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!"
