The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 258 - Business Deal & Savage Land (I)

A/N: I have given it a lot of thought and have decided not to add Hela in the harem. Adding her would definitely mess up my plan and plans are always important. That is why I take votes long ago…

Now, I know a lot of you won't be happy that MC won't be getting 16 girls but that is going to ruin my idea of getting MC his own peerage, and adding too many girls would definitely be a problem for me to write… ??

So, I hope all of you guys understand my choice and decision…

-----------------------------------------

A woman in her early twenties appeared out of thin air in front of a tall glass building. She appeared right on the streets but no one paid her attention… no one even bothered to look in her direction.

The woman's dirty blonde hair was tied in a ponytail and she was staring at the building with a dreamy look on her face. The woman was wearing a sea green sparkly sundress… if any of the passersby were able to see her then they would have definitely compared her with an angel.

Everything about the woman could be called Angelic, except one thing. Her glasses… her glasses were bright pink and one of the lenses was glowing blue while the other was glowing red. A huge innocent smile appeared on the woman's face as she started to skip towards the building's entrance.

[POV Luna]

I stopped in front of the glass door and it opened on its own… I wonder if Nargles are responsible for that… after all, I am under a notice-me-not charm and Nargles are known to ignore them. I shrugged and approached the reception. As soon as I entered the building I dropped the notice-me-not charm and approached the reception desk.

I knew that the woman behind the desk won't help me, though I wonder why… must be Wrackspurts, they must be messing with her head. I pulled out my phone and texted Nemuri. The woman behind the desk gave me an odd look but I wasn't bothered about her… after all, she didn't know the secrets of the world.

"How may I help you ma'am?" the woman asked me. Even though her words were polite, her tone wasn't polite, she was mostly annoyed by me. I knew that tone very well… mostly from Hogwarts. But, I am going to be the bigger person here and forgive her…

Well, even if I was going to forgive her, her life isn't that good and it would get worse in the future… well, there was nothing I could do. "Yes, sure. You can pick up the phone" I quipped in a cheerful tone but the woman gave me weird look…

The woman looked at her phone and frowned and was about to say something rude but the phone started to ring. The woman was completely bewildered… yes, that might be odd for her but it's pretty normal for me. No, need to complain…

With a confused and worried look on her face, the woman picked up the phone. "Yes, ma'am" the woman said with a scared look on her face. "I will be sending her to your office and I will clear your schedule" the woman finished in a fearful tone and told me to take the lift.

"Thank you" I thanked the woman and skipped towards the lift. I already knew where I needed to go and which button I needed to press inside the lift.

I entered the boxy contraption and pushed the button on which the number 50 was carved. The contraption started to move upwards and I started to hum the song the contraption was playing… it was really a nice tune. The contraption finally stopped and the doors opened with a ding sound.

I walked out of the contraption and found myself in front of a pair of regal-looking doors. I pushed the doors and entered Nemuri's office… her office was huge. Nemuri was sitting behind a huge glass table and her chair looked like a golden throne… I know it looked like a golden throne but it wasn't made of actual gold, it was just shiny.

"Luna… not that I mind but why are you here?" Nemuri asked me with a confused look on her face.

"I am sorry Miss Kayama but this visit is strictly for business" I said with a serious look on my face. Of course, we can't have our private lives tangle with our business life. Nemuri gave me an odd look…

"Sure, Luna, whatever you want… why don't you take a seat?" Nemuri said gesturing towards the chair. I plopped down on the chair and beamed in happiness. Everything was happening like it is supposed to be… the chair felt more comfortable now that I was sitting on it.

"So, how can I help you, Miss Lovegood?" Nemuri asked me with a teasing smile on her face. I beamed at Nemuri when she decided to treat this like a business deal.

"Miss Kayama, I have seen the newspapers in this world and I found them rather lacking, don't you?" I asked Nemuri who simply nodded her head with a smile.

"So, I was wondering if you would help me publish the Quibbler?" I asked Nemuri who stopped nodding her head and gave me a look.

"Yeah sure… I will buy some publications around the country and hand them over to you" Nemuri said and shrugged. Once again I beamed at her with a huge smile on my face.

"Thank you, I won't disappoint you, Miss Kayama" I said in a completely determined tone.

"So, should we arrange the contracts?" Nemuri asked me in an amused tone.

"Our business deal is already over Nemuri, so we won't be needing any contracts" I said in a serious tone, Nemuri's smile vanished and her facial expression froze for few seconds before both of us burst out in giggles…

[POV Reo]

"We are going to fly…" I said with a huge grin, both Fleur and Jean also smiled, they wanted to show off their new powers. I have heard that they have gained a flying ability some weeks ago… this was a nice chance for them to try it out…

"But we don't know how long we would be able to maintain our wings" Jean said sounding not so confident.

"You don't have to worry, we could land if needed" I said in a reassuring tone. Both Fleur and Jean nodded their heads in understanding. Both Fleur and Jean unleashed their flames and wings of fire sprouted behind their backs. Jean's wings had a reddish tint to them while Fleur's wings were more on the orange side.

After they were done, I nodded at them and started to float… slowly I rose to the sky and the girls followed… when I reached the desired height I stopped and looked at both Fleur and Jean.

"I am going to slowly increase my speed… I don't know if you would be able to match my speed or not but try to use your max speed" I said and started to fly towards Antarctica. The girls caught up to me easily… so, I increased my speed.

I increased my speed to half of my max and the girls were able to catch up to me after some effort. It was a beautiful sight to see… both of them were leaving trails behind them… while Jean's trail was red, Fleur's was orange. I didn't want others on the ground to notice this so I casted a notice-me-not charm on both of them.

Inside Elysium, it wouldn't have been a problem but we were leaving the island and I didn't want to bring someone to the Savage Land. Even though I knew that most of the meta-humans were on Elysium but there were still some meta-humans out there helping humans. They could still help the humans and follow us to the Savage Land…

I decided not to increase my speed since the girls looked like they were on their max output. Thankfully the girls weren't tired even after 4 hours of travel… the three of us finally arrived above the Savage Land. The tropical forest was huge… I felt several life signs spread around the forest. There seemed to be some colonies too.

After I checked that no one was below us I signaled the girls to land. Both Fleur and Jean nodded their heads and followed suit. Slowly the three of us entered the forest… the trees were huge, I was pretty sure that the trees were no longer supposed to be this huge. I signaled the girls to land on a tree branch, I didn't want to land on the surface…

"Wow! Do you see the color of these leaves? I don't think that they do photosynthesis" Fleur said in an excited tone, in her hands she was holding a giant leaf… the leaf was yellowish in color. Since Fleur was a Phoenix I wasn't worried that the leaf was poisonous… even if it was, it won't matter.

"I am not sure but I think that even though these leaves are yellow they can still carry out photosynthesis, the process might be different though" Jean said with a thoughtful look on her face.

While the girls were busy talking about giant leaves, I spread out my senses in search of what I have come for and I wasn't disappointed when I felt a huge lump of an unknown metal. I also felt several life signs around the lump of metal… it couldn't be called just a lump of metal though… it must be thousands of tonnes. From my senses, I concluded that some beings might have decided to build their colony around the lump of the unknown metal.

"Let's go I have found what I have been looking for" I said while looking towards the colony's direction…
