Chapter 165 The Master of Tides [Part 2]

“Illumina.”

The moment Ethan spoke this word, his wand flew above his head and the image of the mermaid princess materialized in front of everyone.

The Sea God’s Trident in his hand glowed a brilliant blue, waiting for his Master to give it an order.

A torrent of water circled around the young man’s feet, expanding up to two meters around him.

The Spectators gasped in shock after seeing this scene.

Great Chieftain Adrian’s and Marco’s mouths hung open in surprise. If someone were to put a large egg inside their mouths at this moment, neither of them would even realize it due to how shocked they were.

The Shamans, who were watching this scene, glanced at each other before shifting their attention back to the handsome young man, whose aura and stance had completely changed.

The Shamans, the Chieftains, and a few veteran Warriors, suddenly thought of a name, and that was…

Tide Bringer.

An existence that once helped the first Great Overlord secure the lands that were under the Allied Tribe’s sphere of influence.

While everyone was in a daze, Rex stopped his advance and immediately took a few steps back in order to distance himself from his opponent.

He didn’t expect Ethan to be capable of wielding magic, making him regret his decision of not ending the battle earlier.

“Aqua anguis,” Ethan stated.

Immediately, the torrent of water surrounding him turned into dozens of water snakes that flew toward his opponent with their fangs wide open.

Illumina had taught him a few tricks in order to maximize his Partial Resonance. Usually, Ethan only used his Trump Card to hit his opponent at close range.

But after listening to the Mermaid Princess’ advice, he realized that if he used water-based spells during his Partial Resonance phase, the power of these spells would be amplified and become multiple times stronger.

Since this was his first time using this kind of attack pattern, Ethan focused on control instead of intensifying the offensive prowess of the spell.

Although the spell’s offensive power didn’t increase, it allowed him to command the countless water snakes with ease.

Seeing this approaching danger, Rex shouted a war cry as he used his spear to swat away the countless water snakes that descended on him with fury.

His spear danced like a weapon of war, destroying every snake that came within his strike range.

The warrior knew he couldn’t only focus on defense, so he decided to charge at Ethan while swiping and dodging the magical snakes that seemed unending.

Due to their sheer number, he couldn’t catch a glimpse of his target. The only thing he knew was that if he kept on moving forward, he would eventually break through and land a decisive blow to his opponent.

After what seemed like an eternity, Rex was able to cross the distance, and set his sights on the teenage boy, who had his arms pulled back and ready to strike.

“Rising Dragon Strike!” Ethan shouted as he thrust forward.

As soon as he did this, the head of a Water Dragon Erupted from the tip of his trident and gave a resounding roar, making the hearts of those who heard it tremble.

A moment later, the Water Dragon collided with Rex, dragging him along with it.

Ethan didn’t want to hurt the warrior too much, so at the moment of impact, the Water Dragon absorbed his opponent before spitting him outside of the dueling stage.

It then gave another mighty roar before flying towards the heavens and disappearing from everyone’s sight.

A few seconds later, raindrops fell from the sky for half a minute before dispersing completely.

Ethan was still in a striking pose with his trident glowing brightly, allowing everyone to look at him in awe. If one were to look closely, a hint of reverence could be seen in their eyes, as if they were looking at a deity.

Taking a deep breath, the handsome young man raised his head to look up in the sky with his eyes closed.

He could feel the last vestige of Lily’s Magical power leaving his body, and he felt exhaustion starting to seep in.

Suddenly, he felt something wet and soft pressed against his lips, making him open his eyes.

The Mermaid Princess, Illumina, kissed his lips for a few seconds before pulling back. A mischievous smile was plastered on her face before she spoke to Ethan through telepathy.

‘With this, they will think that you are someone blessed by a deity,’ Illumina said. ‘The folks of long ago are quite superstitious. Who knows? This might help you in more ways than one.’

After saying those words, the Mermaid Princess disappeared into particles of light before turning back into a wand that merged with Ethan’s body.

Due to how focused he was on the Mermaid Princess, the young man didn’t notice the solemn gazes of everyone around him.

Then someone spoke, and their words reached everyone’s ears.

“Tide Bringer.”

Those two words broke Ethan out of his daze as the trident in his hand vibrated and hummed softly.

It was as if it was telling his Master that the name that was spoken held great significance.

“Tide Bringer?” Ethan muttered as he glanced at the Great Chieftain of the Kendall Tribe who spoke behind his back.

“Yes,” Great Chieftain Adrian replied before kneeling, and pressing both of his hands on the ground as if he was worshipping a divine being.

One by one, the members of the different tribes, including their Chieftain and Shamans, did the same.

They made a gesture of worship before raising their heads to look at the blue-haired teenager, who wielded the Sea God’s Trident, which was still shining brightly in his hand.

Lily, who was watching this scene, couldn’t help but smirk after seeing Ethan’s dumbfounded expression.

Clearly, he neither understood what was happening nor why everyone was worshipping him.

————————

In a forgotten city, somewhere in the lands of Alastor, a stone trident that was over three meters tall, glowed faintly.

“At last, you have finally returned.”

A voice that was filled with longing and excitement, reverberated within the city that had been abandoned for many years.

“Come, Tide Bringer. Let songs of your bravery be heard.”

A laugh that was filled with happiness reverberated in the surroundings.

Clearly, whoever this voice belonged to was waiting for a long-lost friend whom it hadn’t seen for the past hundred years.
