Chapter 510: A way out

Two days ago.

The Black Sea Riders Island falls apart under the power of that giant wave. The pirates are thrown against rocks and buildings while even Lucien struggles to regain control of his body amid turbulent waters.

But a person can still smoothly swim into that chaos. It's Kamala, of course.

Due to her natural water affinity and Naga's anatomy, she advances through the rubble and trash towards Lucien quickly.

Why?

Because she knows she would regret it for the rest of her life if she missed the opportunity to have someone like Lucien on her side. Even approaching a mythical beast like the Leviathan is less frightening than returning to her home alone.

[SHIT! SHIT!! SHIT!!!] Yet, that doesn't stop her from panicking while she has to fight her survival instinct, which tells her to flee, and her feminine instinct, which tells her to help Lucien.

Then, she finally finds him, and when she sees his face, she feels that taking that risk is totally worth it.

"You???" Lucien didn't expect Kamala to have the courage to approach the Leviathan as he thought she was just another idiot noble who just treated him well out of self-interest.

"Quickly, we have to get out of here!!!" Kamala approaches Lucien and tries to grab his arm.

But he holds her wrist first, showing that even underwater, his agility is far superior to hers. Then he uses his mana to make his voice sound underwater again.

"I can't escape this creature! You have to get out of here now because I can't protect you either." He lets go of her wrist and pushes her back.

But she advances towards him again and tries to hold his hand. He holds her wrist, but she pulls out two shining gems from her storage necklace with her other hand.

The colorful glow of those gems shocks Lucien and Lust.

'Instant teleport gems!!' Lust exclaims in his mind.

At that moment, time seems to stop while Lust and Lucien imagine many possibilities. The first is that since the Leviathan is seeing and hearing them, the creature will likely kill Kamala in the next second to prevent them from escaping.

So Lust quickly advises Lucien to act quickly. 'Take her gems and think about being next to your wives, then you'll be teleported to wherever they are before the creature can do anything!'

A part of Lucien is very tempted to take the gems from Kamala, or at least one of them. He is missing his wives so much and knows they are missing him too. If they are far away from that place, they could have a few hours or even days to plan their next steps until the Leviathan finds them.

But of course, that's a very optimistic prediction as the creature could also catch up to them in a few hours and would be furious to the point of wanting to hurt the people he loves, so that plan is pretty risky.

However, the main point that prevents Lucien from taking the instant teleport gems from Kamala's hand is his self-pride. She's risking her life to save him, and even if it's for selfish reasons, he couldn't steal her gems.

Maybe he wouldn't think twice about doing that to save someone he loves, but they're not in real danger right now, so he doesn't want to do that.

Then Lucien pushes Kamala back again. "Quick! Get out of here before the creature kills you!"

"I won't go without you!!" Kamala is touched that Lucien doesn't try to steal her gems but doesn't understand why he doesn't want to escape with her either.

"You don't understand; the creature will follow me wherever I go, she..." He tries to explain but then notices that the Leviathan is already surrounding them.

"Oh, little dragon..." The Leviathan's bizarre voice echoes underwater as she surrounds Lucien and Kamala with her long body. "Looks like you made a new friend… do you guys plan on running away or something?"

Lucien instinctively pulls Kamala behind him as he faces the Leviathan. "She has nothing to do with our things."

Kamala is again surprised by Lucien. They don't know each other, but he is already protecting her in such a dangerous situation. And even though that creature is so powerful, she feels safe by being with him.

The giant snake's eyes sparkle as she understands more about Lucien's character. "You guys seem like a lovely couple... but I'm afraid you can't have a happy ending."

[Couple...] That word echoes in Kamala's mind, and she doesn't understand why that sounds so good.

Meanwhile, Lust is increasingly confused. Then she talks to Lucien. 'Why isn't the creature attacking? She could kill Kamala and get the gems easily...'

Lucien doesn't understand that either, but he doesn't understand most of Leviathan's actions. The creature always seems to be playing with him, which is frustrating.

"Stop the bullshit." He speaks to the Leviathan.

The creature makes a curious expression. "Alright, I can give you time for you to do that thing with her… I mean, by putting your mark on her body and sending her to your soul realm."

Lucien is confused for a second, but then he understands the creature's intent. "If you want to know how that works, why not just ask?"

As Kamala remembers how Oya and Helena enter and exit that mysterious portal, the Leviathan smiles. "Seeing how it happens looks better."

'It can't be just that…' Lust comments in Lucien's mind, and he agrees.

Lucien doesn't like having to do what the Leviathan order, but she's allowing him to save Kamala's life and get a powerful new wife, which will come in handy now.

Then he turns to her and looks into her eyes as he moves his hands towards her belly. "I won't hurt you, but this will bond us forever… if you don't want to do it, you have to escape right now."

Kamala is confused as she instinctively trusts Lucien but is afraid to do something she doesn't understand. She's already heard about the demons' famous soul contract and imagines that's what they're about to do.

[Bonding my soul to a guy I just met?] She can't help but think that's crazy. But at the same time, she wants to have a relationship with Lucien and not getting killed by the Leviathan, of course.

She panics at not knowing what to do and puts her hand over the small green stone on her necklace, activating her most valuable resource and causing a green light to appear around her and Lucien.

[Huh???] Lucien, Lust, and even the Leviathan are surprised as that green light becomes a cube-shaped barrier around them.

'This barrier looks really powerful!' Lust explains to Lucien.

Kamala takes Lucien's arm and puts an instant teleport gem into his hand. "Quickly, we have to get out of here before the barrier ends!"

"I can't go with you as the creature would follow me to your house." Lucien quickly explains.

"It's alright; she won't get into our town, and you'll be safe there." Kamala insists.

"Hahahaha..." The Leviathan's laughter echoes as she looks at the green barrier. "Do you really think your stupid barrier can stop me? I know where you're going, and you won't be safe from me there."

'This isn't right…' Lust comments in Lucien's mind. 'She should threaten your wives to stop you from running away and not say she's going after you.'

'Does she wants me to go with Kamala? But why?' Lucien wonder.

'I don't know, but if she's not going after your wives, this is a good chance for us to find a new plan. I don't know where Kamala will take us, but it must be far from here. Also, if her mother has actually encountered Leviathan before, we can get more information about the creature.' Lust explains.

'She is manipulating us, and I don't like it.' Lucien comments.

'Me neither.' She responds. 'But what is the other option? The Leviathan will keep beating you until you understand more about Aylin's power, and then she will try to devour you to observe that.'

Lucien feels that the two options he has are bad, but going with Kamala could open up new paths he couldn't get in standing with the Leviathan now. Also, the creature seems to be playing with him, so she has no reason to go after his wives.

"Alright, let's do this." Lucien squeezes the instant teleport gem in his hand and looks at Kamala.

"Crush the gem and keep imagining yourself by my side; I'll take us to safety!" Kamala explains.

*BAM*

The Leviathan hits the green barrier with her tail, but it doesn't move or crack, surprising Lust even more.

"Now!" Kamala exclaims and holds Lucien's hand.

They crush the instant teleport gems simultaneously, and their body turns to light as they move down northward, going to the deepest parts of the ocean.

The Leviathan doesn't even try to do anything because she knows she can't stop them now. But the satisfied expression on her face makes it clear that everything is going the way she wants.
