Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 172: CHAPTER 172 – Aquathrens.

"My Lord, there are some movements on the island!"

A guy ran into a room that seemed like the throne room, just a bit smaller.

However, that guy, unlike humans, had green-colored skin, and gills on his neck, while his hands had fins that started from the palm and ended at the elbow.

He had a tail on his back that seemed quite strong. The tail had fins at the end.

His eyes were large and a bit misplaced or maybe it was misplaced from human standards but not for him.

His eyes were on the sides instead of being in the front, probably giving him a 180-degree view.

If one looked carefully, they would notice something.

This room was actually underwater!

The people inside the room were all underwater, and they were breathing.

Now, the feature of the guy earlier made sense.

These creatures were known as 'Aquathren'.

They were the monsters that the raiders were supposed to kill to clear the gate, as for the boss that they were supposed to kill…..

"There is always movement on the island, what's new about it?"

A deep voice questioned the creature from before as a colossal pressure descended upon him.

*Thud*

The creature fell on his flat on the ground as the pressure was too much for it to handle.

The one who exerted the pressure was an Aquathren with blue skin and a height of 2 meters.

This guy was the boss of the gate, and he was peak SS-ranked Aquathren.

He was sitting on a throne made of the bones of some large fish as he ate some kind of meat.

Right now, he was looking at the guy from before as if he were an insect as he listened to the other Aquathren in the room chuckle and giggle at the guy's demise.

*Spit*

"Disturbed me for nothing-"

The boss monster spit the meat he was chewing on the guy who was lying on the ground, clutching his own neck as he was having a hard time breathing.

But he paused, or more precisely, everyone in the room paused, all because of the words that escaped from the guy's mouth.

The creature that was dying under the pressure from the boss monster, used all of his willpower to voice out a single word.

"Human…."

This single word made the hall get enveloped in a pin-drop silence.

The boss waved off the pressure as he stood up from his throne of bones and looked down at the guy.

"What did you say?"

"My lord, I said humans, there are humans on the island!" The guy was trying to calm his breathing but when it was the boss monster's crazed eyes, it hurriedly replied.

"You know the consequences of lying to me, right?" The boss monster asked as he stepped toward the guy.

The guy from before felt the word behind the words of the boss monster, but he nodded his head and continued.

"I know, my lord, but those humans came out of that portal-like thing that we could never cross."

"Oh?" The boss let out a surprised voice as he started contemplating.

"How many of them came?" The boss monster asked as he looked into the guy's eyes.

"More than 100, my lord."

The guy replied as he tried to stand up.

"And where are they now?" The boss monster asked again as he moved closer to the guy.

"Last time I saw them, they were moving toward the west of the island-"

The guy replied honestly as he looked at the boss monster, but….

*Crush*

His head was crushed by the boss monster.

"I never told you to get up," The boss monster spoke as he jerked his hands twice, causing the brain matter stuck on his finger to fly away.

*Thud*

The body of the guy fell to the ground and he died without even knowing the reason for his death.

"He could've been useful you know, he was an S-ranked Aquathern, after all."

Just then a feminine voice was heard as a female Aquathren stood up from her seat and walked toward the boss monster seductively.

She had large breasts, and a large ass that giggled with every step she took, and from the flirtatious looks shared between her and the boss monster, it was clear that they had some chemistry.

"He was just an S-rank Aquathren so it doesn't matter, it's just one less mouth to feed now, and one less mouth to ask for human meat we will be eating today."

The boss monster just shrugged with an evil smile on his face, but when he spoke about human meat, he involuntarily gulped, swallowing the saliva that was being generated in his mouth just by mentioning Human meat.

"I guess that's true," The female Aquathren came close to the boss monster and hugged him as she nodded her head.

"It has been a decade since we ate human meat, after all."

The female Aquathren added as her eyes shone with hunger.

"Let's go then, what are you guys waiting for?" The boss monster looked at the remaining Aquathrens in the room and questioned.

"Let's go!"

"We are eating human meats tonight!"

"How does it taste, by the way?"

"Oh, you are a youngling I see, you will know how it tastes later then…."

All of them cheered as they moved out of the room with the boss monster in the lead.

They were going to eat human meat today!

The dead Aquathren was ignored by everyone, some even stepped over him without any regard as if he were some waste that was not even worth looking at.

....................................….

"Why are we in a forest?" Alice asked in confusion as she looked around at the surroundings.

"Wasn't this supposed to be a coastal territory?" Alice added.

Ann also looked around in confusion, but then Alex spoke.

"We are on an island, it's just that the island is quite large," Alex spoke as he could already sense the sea in his perception range.

"Ohhhh," X2

Both Alice and Ann nodded their heads in realization.

"Master, where are the guys that came before us?" Suddenly Noctura asked as she looked curiously at Alex.

Alex looked at Noctura and smiled.

"They are headed that way," Alex pointed at the direction Argon and the group had walked into.

"And which direction is the closest seashore?" Ann asked with a frown.

"That side," Alex replied as he pointed the way for Ann.

"That's the exact opposite…." Alice muttered with a frown.

Even she could tell that something was wrong.

"If Argon knows the future, then he probably knows the location of the boss monster, I think we should follow them," Ann suggested, but Alex smiled as he said.

"Well, good news for you guys, we won't have to go anywhere as I can already sense a group of monsters headed our way."

Alice, Ann, and Noctura quickly got battle-ready as they heard Alex's words.

But Alex just chuckled.
