Eilish dismantled the Mountain Bringer in just ten minutes under the eyes of its master. The tamer couldn't believe what he saw.

Mountain Bringer was a powerful fourth stage monster and only a few people could match it in the entire world. A country would have to sacrifice a lot if they were to face this monster yet, Eilish killed it.

Eilish's power was simply unbelievable.

The whole land had changed and a vast sea remained in this land, replacing the previous forest.

Heimer, Baldur, and Princess Dreimi finally saw the power of the existence from the Divine World.

It was almighty as if Eilish herself was a god.

"..."

Aerin was stunned. She didn't expect that Eilish possessed power beyond her imagination.

She knew that she was a top expert in this world yet compared to Eilish, she was nothing. She finally understood why the group was nonchalant regarding the enemies. The tamer and all the monsters weren't a threat at all.

Eilish descended and stood on top of the water. She retracted her aura and the elemental energy around her disappeared. She was still at the Force Stage so she couldn't maintain [Element Drive] for a long time.

It seems that she needed to master techniques related to elemental power to extend the duration of her [Element Drive]. Luckily, there were manuals of it back in Astros so she didn't need to earn achievement points and exchanged it in the Athen's Champion.

It was one of the manuals that Souta wrote down using Saya's knowledge.

She already mastered a number of spells so it's time to focus on other skills to further improved her ability.

Souta floated beside her and said, "You've grown stronger. I didn't expect that you're power is close to an expert reaching the limit of the second shackle."

"I still haven't touched it so it would take a lot of time," Eilish answered as she shook her head. She could already feel the third shackle but it would take a lot of time before she break it. She hasn't even cracked it yet.

Souta nodded as he glanced at her body. His eyes could see the invisible shackles around her. He stretched out his hand to touch it, but his hand simply passed through it. As expected, only Eilish could influence the shackles on her body.

Eilish waved her hand and a figure flew toward her.

It was the master of the Mountain Bringer, the Tamer.

The tamer was about to say something when he felt a strong energy tighten around his body. It prevented him from opening his mouth to beg for his life.

"Be quiet."

Eilish said before she focused her attention on the corpse of the giant monster. She raised her hand and made a grabbing motion.

Ohm!

The corpse trembled and after a few seconds, a sphere the size of a human head flew out of it.

It was the monster orb of the Mountain Bringer.

"Here," Eilish threw the monster orb at Souta.

"Thanks," Souta said as he looked at the orb in his hand. This orb had little use to his current energy level.

He could drain all the energy within in just a single day. It would only be able to expand his capacity by a small margin. Well, it was better than nothing.

Souta couldn't help but give Eilish a second look. She was a better mage, a better mage than himself. Based on what he saw today, Eilish was the best spell user in the entire Astros. No one could beat her when it comes to spell mastery.

Eilish sensed his gaze so she turned her head to look at him. She flashed a smile and said, "That's my gift to you."

Souta sighed and smiled to himself. "It's quite bad." 

...

The threat of the tamer was gone and Souta received the system rewards from the quest. Rewards from the system were better than any parts of the Mountain Bringer.

The group left the scene not wanting to attract any attention. The Crown City suffered damage from the battle as thousands of house within it was submerged under the water. They sent experts to investigate what happened, only to find a gigantic corpse of a monster.

Eilish left the interrogation of the tamer to Baldur, the Captain of the Royal Guard. He used any means to extract information.

They found that the tamer was a subordinate of the Second Prince of the Crimco Empire. Crimco Empire was a huge country and was stronger than Arsen Kingdom. It was within the top 10 strongest factions in the land.

The tamer was raising a bunch of monsters for the Second Prince. The Second Prince wanted to kill his siblings and become the next emperor of the Crimco Empire.

Souta didn't care about this information. What matters to him was that he received a quest and cleared it without any problem.

If the Second Prince came after him, then he would kill him.

Aerin bowed her head as she thanked everyone for helping her.

"Thank you for lending me your strength. I'm glad that we stop the tamer from killing more innocent people," she said.

Souta yawned and said, "It's nothing..."

Then, he turned in the direction of the Crown City and added, "Well, it seems that the city was affected so you don't have to thank us."

Eilish smiled embarrassedly. "I didn't expect that the effect of my spell would affect the city. I got used to Imperium's pressure."

People got injured due to the heavy energy and the sudden flood but no one died. The only problem was a lot of people lost their homes from the flood.

"I will not forget anyone of you. If you need my help then you can find me in the Elven Country, Lushinya. I'm one of the Great Guardians of Lushinya. You can visit my country and I will show you my utmost hospitality." Aerin said from the bottom of her heart.

Heimer, Baldur, and Princess Dreimi smiled.

The group bid farewell to Aerin before they separated. Aerin went in the direction of her country while Souta's group continued their journey toward the Devil Sea.

Devil Sea.

It was one of the most dangerous places in the entire Planet Plunyx. It housed countless monsters and each one of them possessed great power that made countless people tremble in fear.

A lot of people and countries tried to establish a sea route in this place yet all of them failed. There was a king in the past that tried to negotiate with those monsters. It resulted in him being attacked by countless monsters.

Those sea monsters were very aggressive towards any creature from the land.

The sea was their territory and they wouldn't tolerate any living beings on the land stepped into the water.

The Devil Sea was vast. Dark clouds were hovering above it giving an ominous vibe. Lightning flashed and thunder roared every second. The atmosphere was heavy as the wind blew strongly causing huge waves that could trample any ships or boat.

The fluctuation of energy in this area was high. The weather in this terrifying sea was terrible all day long. The storm never stops and if it somehow stops it only disappeared for a single day.

Several figures were standing on the cliff looking at the ominous-looking sea.

It was Souta's group.

They finally arrived in front of the infamous Devil Sea.

"So this is the Devil Sea..." Baldur muttered.

"I've only heard of it but it seems more terrifying than the rumors," Heimer said.

They haven't gone into this place in the past. Aside from the distance, they didn't have anything to do with this place. So they only heard information about the Devil Sea.

Souta narrowed his eyes. The things that he want were under that sea.

He already knew what would happen so he had to prepare.

Souta turned his head and said, "Stay here. Eilish and I will go."

Heimer, Baldur, and Princess Dreimi were surprised at his words. They were about to say something when Souta interrupted them.

Souta raised his hand. "You are my guide. I don't need you to protect me so wait for me here."

The three didn't have a choice but to agree to his words. They were Souta's guide. If a battle occurred that was above their levels then they wouldn't be able to do a thing. They would become a burden.

After all, the person that they wanted to protect was far stronger than them.

"Don't worry, it wouldn't take long. I will return after I finish what I need to do." Souta assured them.

Heimer, Baldur, and Princess Dreimi nodded at his words.

Souta and Eilish jumped down from the cliff. They slowly approached the seaside as the strong wind brushed across their faces.

"Even the wind here is sharp as it contained a little bit of energy. Ordinary people will get cut if they approach this sea carelessly." Eilish commented.

"Yep, but the thing that made this place dangerous isn't the wind." Souta smiled as he stared at the water.
