Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 690: Seabed Sealed Area

Nell decided to give a helping hand to the knights down there. After all, she didn't want the accursed monsters to escape the vicinity.

She also didn't wish to show her presence to the humans down there. Therefore, she only used magic to throw the fleeing monsters flying into the anti-curse zones. But also with her big sister's nature magic assistance, of course.

"The battle here is over. The army can wipe out the remaining monsters and clean up the mess here. Now it's time for us to go." Nell checked downstairs once more to make sure and nodded confidently at her words.

"Hmm." Oceanid put his hand on the control runes and controlled the Gravy Ark to fly away to the east. They continued their journey.

"Hmm?" Brian looked up at the sky in surprise.

"What's the matter, boss?" David looked into the bag too, but he couldn't see anything.

"It's nothing. It might just be my feeling. Earlier, I felt an entity was observing us. The monsters suddenly flying into the anti-curse zones are also unusual. Perhaps, someone is helping us in the shadows?" Brian muttered in wonder.

"You stupid donkey, have you forgotten that our Goddess, the Goddess of Blessings, is with us on our beloved continent? She is omnipresent. Her divine holy light is helping us, the Human Race, deal with all this chaos." Ashton smacked Brian in the back.

"Oh..." Brian responded nonchalantly.

"Hmm..." Raylee looked up at the sky too but inclined towards the east. His hunch said that someone did help them out of nowhere, and those entities had already left.

A few hours later, Elysia's group had arrived somewhere in the Aquatic Continent. They were in an underwater ruin to install some anti-curse mechanisms around the ancient ruin. Several mermen and mermaids were also present to help set some traps.

"Hehehe, I can swim freely in the deep ocean without worrying about anything. The Sea God's blessing really makes us like an aquatic race that can swim freely in the ocean without worrying about running out of breath." Sylvia swam to and fro like a free fish.

"But, we're not fishmen." Yuuki added a truth.

"That's, of course. A pair of legs is superior to a fish's tail." Sylvia showed her fair legs as if she was showing them off to the nearby mermaids and mermen.

"I don't know what you're trying to accomplish by doing that, but we can swim much faster than you, terrestrial creatures. If it wasn't for the Sea God's divine blessing, I doubt you would have survived due to the absence of air and water pressure at these depths." A mermaid frowned and put on an arrogant attitude.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter since we have magic. As for you, it's a difficult thing if you visit the mainland. It's fine for Saint-level or above since they can transform their fishtail into a pair of legs. What can you take from that? Yes, a pair of legs is superior. Don't you agree?" Sylvia smirked as if she was the victor in the argument.

"Tch." A merman clicked his tongue and turned his face to the side.

"Why are you wasting your time arguing? Have you set up the traps as planned? Sea God and his comrade have finished installing anti-curse mechanisms in this sealed area." A merman clad in fancy armor came over with a firm sentence.

"We have carried out everything according to plan, Young Master Clyde. However, this devil girl has often taunted us in many ways on various occasions." A mermaid in light armor pointed at the devil girl in annoyance.

"That's because you all respond to her taunts, moron. The Devil Race takes pleasure in making other beings suffer, irritate, or get angry. That's why all this argument goes on. She laughs while you end up annoyed and irritated." Clyde advised his subordinates with a subtle sigh.

"Hehe, I'm not that bad. That may be true once in a while. But, what happened just now is that their faces can be really red when they're angry or upset, but can't do anything because I'm the stronger one here." Sylvia pressed her finger to her cheek with a proud expression.

"You're Sylvia, right? You and your partner are being sought by Miss Elysia right now. You'd better go see her now." Clyde remained calm and composed.

"Is that true? Hm, the task of setting traps here is also over. Yuuki, let's go. We need to report." Sylvia immediately swam away without further ado.

"En." Yuuki also swam away.

After the two girls left, Clyde sighed. "That's how you drive the devil away. You have to remain calm in the face of creatures like them. To be honest, she is quite docile compared to the terrible devils out there."

"We understand, Young Master Clyde." The mermen and mermaids responded in unison.

"Very well, we need squads to monitor this area. A great battle will break out when this place collapses and free many terrible monsters. For our ocean and loved ones, we shall slaughter those monsters!" Clyde raised his trident and shouted for a morale boost.

"For our ocean and loved ones!" The mermen and mermaids raised their hands with shouts of enthusiasm. They then went back to the main force out there to report.

Several troops were already standing guard around on the outer side of the ruins. Elysia's group has just finished installing its fifth anti-curse mechanism at strategic points for clashes.

"You mermen are responsible for sealing this area. We will be here as soon as this place collapses and free the accursed monsters. After our instructions, do you all know how the anti-curse mechanism works?" Oceanid put his hands behind his back.

"We have understood all your instructions clearly. We will guard this place and fight to eradicate the accursed monsters from this ocean." Osharus nodded in confirmation.

"Very good. That's all from us for now. This is the fifth sealed area we've recently spotted. We need to explore the vast oceans to install the prevention mechanisms in more sealed areas. Are there any questions on your side?" Oceanid looked at all the individuals around him.

"Is an army of certain clans assigned to guard every discovered sealed area?" One of the merman knights raised his hand to ask.

"Not all, but if the sealed area is near a civilization, then yes. We will assign the nearby clans to this noble task for the good of everyone." Oceanid nodded in confirmation.

"Hey, why do you keep following me? I'm neither fish nor food!" A mermaid in sexy fancy bikini armor tried to escape from a suspicious beastkin.

"I'm just wondering why mermaids can look half human and half fish. I can't confirm it's a random merman or mermaid. Since you seem friendly to my master, why don't you let me check on you, Dorienne?" Vanessa chased from behind.

"No way! If that's what you're saying, then what's with that predatory stare?" Dorienne looked back and shouted frantically. She swam as fast as possible to get away from the predator. She looked around for Elysia or anyone who could help her. Her father was still in the presence of Sea God, so he was not an option.

"..." Osharus didn't know what to say when he saw his daughter playing catch up with that white feline beastkin. He couldn't help but smile slightly and shook his head.

"Wow, this trough is so deep, dark and scary. Is it possible that a monster like a giant eel is nesting under there?" Nell asked in wonder while swimming above the big, deep trough.

"Looks like down there is only filled with unique sea creatures typical of the deep ocean. Uuh, I feel quite scared to be in the deep ocean right now. They call that thalassophobia, right?" Elysia took a few steps back from the trough.

"Thalassophobia? What is it?" Rhea was curious.

"That is the fear that arises from large bodies of water. Something like a jumpscare of a large and terrible creature from under the sea. Just imagine, from what the eye can't see, suddenly such a huge creature appears right before you. Ely couldn't stand against jumpscare, for your information." Elena covered her mouth and went away from the trough as well.

"I see..." Rhea nodded in understanding.

"Nee, the sealed area over there isn't connected to the trough here? What happens if the sealed area collapses and leaks into this trough?" Nell swam away from the trough. She became a bit scared because of Elena's words.

"Let's tell Sea God about this. He knows more about the ocean than any of us. Let's go back." Elena decides, and everyone agrees. They returned to the gathering place for the mermaid and mermaid troops.

When they arrived at the gathering place, a pink-haired mermaid swam over quickly. She immediately took cover behind Elysia's group for protection. "Ely, everyone, please keep that predator away from me!"

"Hmm, predator?" Elysia looked at Dorienne in confusion. She couldn't find any predators anywhere. Only Vanessa was approaching.

"Master, I'm not a predator. I just wanted to check that mermaid's credibility and authenticity. I'm also a little curious why she smells delicious like a rare fish, different from other mermaids. She is half fish and half-human. That leaves a lot of mystery behind." Vanessa justified her actions with a reasonable defense.

"No harm is done, Dori. Vann is harmless, just curious. Are you scared because of your survival instincts? Fish are afraid of a tiger?" Elysia gave Vanessa a head pat while facing Dorienne. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ (f)ir(e).nᴇt - novelenglish.net . bin

"Survival instinct? Am I afraid of a tiger? She is stronger than me and looks at me with her predatory eyes. Look at those feline blue eyes. It's as if she wants to pounce on me and eat me whole. Ely, you can't be so biased, can you?" Dorienne put on a pitiful expression.

"Fufu, adorable mermaid and curious cat. Have you had enough fun teasing Dori, Vann? A tiger's eyes are indeed like that, Dori. Vann means no harm. Let's do this. See, she won't hurt you. She's just being like a curious cat." Elena intervened with amusement. She grabbed Dorienne's hand and put it in Vanessa's arm.

"Uh-huh?" Dorienne gasped for a moment, but nothing happened after that. Vanessa just stroked her delicate hand, and it was just a little ticklish.

"Like human skin, but a bit slippery and slimy? Hmm, this is interesting. Is this mucus membrane?" Vanessa examined Dorienne's hand curiously.

"What do you mean by mucus? We mermaids do have a layer of skin like this." Dorienne withdrew her hand from the curious cat.

Nell and Rhea just looked at each other with amused smiles. Nell then went to Oceanid to tell him about the big, deep trough.
