Destroying My Own World

Since Mykel didn’t join the expedition, Rozan had been chosen to lead the team. They knew that he was the most insightful compared to others, and he always found an answer to every problem.

They were standing near the portal, and it was quite interesting because what Zhang prepared wasn’t just a ransom for everyone, but he prepared ships and boats. He brought them because it would be easier to travel from one island to another inside the portal. He had thought about it and made it possible rather than wasting time on making a boat.

"Is everyone ready?" Zhang asked.

They all nodded and then entered the portal and the trucks carried the ships into the portal. When they were inside the portal, it felt so familiar that it made Rozan and Gerrard reminiscent of the past.

"This place reminds me of Shelly. I hope she’s doing fine back there," Rozan said as he looked at the tropical islands scattered around the sea. "Anyway, I think we already know what kind of monsters or creatures we are going to deal with," Rozan pointed out.

"You do?" Ren asked with his eyebrows raised.

"Sea monsters. I can bet a million dollars that I’m right," Rozan answered as he nodded his head with confidence. "This is going to be a hard one because we might fight them in the middle of the sea unless we can lure them into the island," Rozan continued.

Zhang, Ren, and Jeong looked at each other and thought if that was really the case, they were in big trouble. Eun Soo was looking at Rozan and knew the storyline in Lowa World, and she was so eager to ask Rozan about Shelly.

"If any of you have sea sickness, I think you will have a hard time here," Aurea said as she looked at the new sword that Ren gave her. "I’m not trying to scare you, but if you fall off the ship, you’re as good as dead," Aurea looked at them with a serious expression.

Everyone nervously gulped and looked at how scary Aurea held the katana since she tried the sharpness of the blade by cutting her fingers and palm.

"Can you freeze the water?" Gerrard asked Rozan.

"I could, but not that wide. Also, I might use all my stamina to create a decent platform for all of us," Rozan answered. "I don’t think that would be a good idea," Rozan continued.

"Well, this time we are boarding a ship made of steel. The chance of them breaking is smaller than a wooden ship," Sven said as he looked at the ships being docked on the shoreline.

Rozan with Zhang, Ren, and Jeong were discussing the plan, and that was when they realized how insightful Rozan was. The strategy that he gave and the solutions to the problems that might arise had been set and planned from the beginning. He gathered all the information and used every one of them without wasting them.

"Alright, we are good to go! Everyone gathered up!" Rozan said as he clapped his hand.

"Gunnar, Sven, Vincze. The three of you will be boarding the head ship with Zhang, Ren, and Jeong. Aurea, Lillith, and Nagy, you guys are boarding the left wing ship with archers from the Golden Lotus. Jeanne, Enma, Bhatmelec, you guys are boarding the right wing ship with archers from Shinshi Clan. I’ll be on the tail ship on my own with the archers from Shinhwa Clan. The healers and mages will be on the main ship in the middle," Rozan explained.

"Are you sure about this plan? I know that you guys are strong but putting our strongest forces on the outer line is quite risky," Ren asked.

"You’ll understand why this plan is going to work. Trust me, I would never put my friend in danger if I know they can’t handle it. With that being said, your men will be safe in their hands as well," Rozan said.

"I’ll hold onto your words," Zhang said.

They all boarded the ships and started to explore the islands.

(At the hotel)

Elena was asleep, and her hair had turned gray and thin, but her face was still the same. Her whole body became so skinny that her bones could be seen on her arms, neck, face, and chest. It was hard for Mykel to see her in that condition and not to mention having to wait nine hours for Magnus to arrive.

"Dad, I’m cold," Elena said weakly.

Mykel didn’t say anything and immediately removed his suit and got on the bed to hug her. He covered himself in the blanket with Elena so she could feel his warmth. He even let his insides get burned to let his body be as hot as possible without harming Elena.

"How is it now?" Mykel asked quietly as he gently stroked Elena’s head.

"Warm, so warm," Elena answered as she wrapped her arms around Mykel’s body, and then she started to feel sleepy again.

The sound of Mykel’s heartbeat made Elena feel at peace and forget about the pain all over her body. She thought that she would be fine to die like that since it was the most comforting and relaxing moment of her life. She then fell asleep again with a smile on her face, but that smile only made Mykel worried.

(Inside the portal)

"Gunnar, give me a boost!" Sven said as he looked up.

Gunnar went down to his knees and put his shield right above his head. Sven jumped and landed on top of the shield, and then Gunnar sent Sven up high into the sky.

A winged eel was flying above the head ship and was about to cast a waterball. Sven cut its head before the eel could gather the water in its body, and when he was free-falling four winged eels flew toward him and were ready to bite him with their razor-sharp teeth. He spun around and cut all of them in half as he dodged the attacks.

"What a terrifying creature," Sven said as he landed on the ship. "We have been hunting for hours, but there’s no sign of the leader. How long are we supposed to be sailing aimlessly like this?" Sven asked.

"Who knows, let’s just hope that the leader will appear soon," Gunnar answered.

Rozan was at the far back and killed all the winged eels that were trying to eat the ship with his icicles. He single-handedly butchered and froze the winged eels as the archers looked at him with admiration. They didn’t even get the chance to help because of how fast his reflexes were.

"This won’t do," Rozan said after he killed the last winged eel. "You guys take the lead for a moment, I’ll be back in a minute!" Rozan continued and flew to the left-wing ship to speak with Aurea.

"Aurea! I need your help," Rozan said. "We have been fighting these eels for four hours, and there’s no sign of the leader. I believe everyone is getting exhausted from this, so I have a theory that the leader won’t come out if we don’t force it to the surface," Rozan explained as he looked around.

"You want me to go down there and find the leader?" Aurea asked.

"If you can," Rozan nodded his head.

"Alright," Aurea nodded her head with understanding. "Lilly, take the command," Aurea said as she removed her sweater and pants.

Everyone was flustered when they saw her body, and they couldn’t look away because they had never seen any woman with a perfect body like her. Lillith suddenly cleared her throat as she glared at them, and they all immediately looked away.

"If I don’t come back up in five minutes, that means I’m in trouble," Aurea said as she climbed the railing. "Keep my sweater and pants dry!" Aurea said to Lillith and then jumped off the boat.

As soon as Rozan was on his way back to the tail ship, a giant whirlpool was being formed. He was floating in the air and looked at the whirlpool getting bigger and bigger so that it slowly sucked all the ships toward it. When he squinted his eyes, he realized there was a big shadow underneath the whirlpool.

"Everyone! Brace for impact!" Rozan screamed his lungs out.

A giant winged eel went to the surface and the splash was like a tsunami. Seeing how high the tide was, made them realize it would be impossible for the ship to survive. Rozan then flew toward the tide and then used all his stamina to freeze it with magic. He went all out since the tides kept coming and tried to break the ice, and when he ran out of stamina, he looked at the giant iceberg that he made from the tide.

"I still got it..." Rozan chuckled as he fell into the water.

When Rozan was drowned in the sea, he felt someone grabbing him and carrying him back to the surface. When he gasped for air, he looked at Aurea who was carrying him in her arms.

"Well, we did our job. Now it’s their turn to kill it," Aurea said as she watched Jeanne and the others jump into the iceberg.
