Chapter 217: chapter 217- Nameless Kingdom
"Stupid! The same move won\'t work for me"
Seeing the Tentacles coming towards him, Nāgāntaka did not avoid them but instead approached them, with both of his humanoid hands still retaining their sharp claws, Nāgāntaka hugged the two Tentacles in each of his hands.
Nāgāntaka grinned, and the Kraken began to look panicked; he tried to pull back his two Tentacles by using the fluid that he could release from his body at will. However, it didn\'t work because, before the fluid could work, the flames around Nāgāntaka had already vaporized it.
"... Now is my turn to show you what the sky looks like, doesn\'t it?"
Said Nāgāntaka who then immediately flapped his wings, and shot up, as if he was not under the sea, the Kraken tried to fight by using the six Tentacles to swim deeper into the sea, but the power that Nāgāntaka currently had was extraordinary, so he did not feel any resistance from the Kraken, so Nāgāntaka continued to shoot up towards the sky carrying the Kraken with him.
-------------
Nāgāntaka, who had risen to the sky, saw that Kraken\'s body had completely left the sea; he grinned again because he saw how Kraken tried to attack him using the rest of his Tentacles that could move.
"... Wrong Move, you fool"
Nāgāntaka comments on the Kraken\'s movements, then the intensity of the flames around Nāgāntaka can be seen decreasing, but then replaced by the appearance of six additional hands-on Nāgāntaka\'s back, which then catch one of Kraken\'s Tentacles each.
With that, the Kraken was completely helpless and could only hang upside down because its eight Tentacles had now been sealed by Nāgāntaka\'s hand.
Without wasting any time, Nāgāntaka tightened the muscles of his eight arms and then spun his body which made the speed of his rotation continue to increase with each rotation, making the Kraken swing quickly, already feeling that the time had come, Nāgāntaka then released his grip on the Kraken\'s Tentacles which made the Kraken have to be thrown high into the sky.
With the Kraken still soaring high, Nāgāntaka calculated where the Kraken would fall and then flew there at full speed.
Seeing that the Kraken was about to fall towards him, Nāgāntaka raised one hand, and then all the flames surrounding him, seemed to gather in his palm, forming a solid fireball, and automatically, his six additional hands also disappeared.
"... You\'re choosing death by disturbing my master rest, You are an insolent creature"
Said Nāgāntaka who then immediately threw the solid fireball towards Nāgāntaka, the solid fireball shot towards the Kraken at full speed, in the middle of the journey it suddenly took the form of a fire spear, which continued to grow larger the closer it got to the Kraken, and the next second, the Kraken who could not move to avoid the fire spear, hit it hard.
*BOOM!!*
A huge explosion followed after that, which seemed to turn the night into day for a moment.
A massive explosion occurred after that, followed by a roar of pain and despair from the Kraken. The massive explosion seemed to turn the night into day for a few moments before it once again became dark.
From the cloud of smoke created by the explosion, something fell, and it was the charred and shattered body of the Kraken.
Seeing this, Nāgāntaka stretched his hand towards the smoke, and the same fireball flew back and landed right in Nāgāntaka\'s hand, which he then brought close to a red crystal located on the chest of his golden armor.
Feeling that the situation was under control, Nāgāntaka had one more thing to do, before he returned to the lair where his Master, Gaia, and Lembuswana were.
Feeling that hundreds or even thousands of sea beasts were still watching him from the deep sea.
Nāgāntaka spread his killing intent, in a loud voice that was authoritative and contained a threat, Nāgāntaka said.
"FROM NOW ON, THIS ISLAND IS MY MASTER TERRITORY; IF ANY ONE OF YOU DARE TO TAKE A STEP ON THIS ISLAND WITH THAT FILTHY FOOT OF YOURS, BELIEVE ONLY DEATH IS THE CONSEQUENCE, YOU BETTER ENGRAVE MY WORDS ON THAT LITTLE BRAIN YOURS!!..."
There was silence for a moment after Nāgāntaka said that, and he didn\'t expect an answer either, what he expected was for the Beasts to feel fear.
Nāgāntaka continued to hover there until he felt that all the Beasts had left the island. Nāgāntaka kept a firm and unwavering face, but in his heart, he was very relieved.
Nāgāntaka turned around to go back to the big tree on the hill, but he was suddenly shocked because he suddenly felt an unpleasant gaze from a distance.
"!!!"
Nāgāntaka quickly turned his head towards where he felt the gaze coming from, with his golden eyes that seemed to burn like fire, Nāgāntaka looked through the darkness of the night, but all he saw was emptiness without a single figure.
"... Is it just my imagination because I\'m too tired?"
Said Nāgāntaka, then shook his bird\'s head, and turned his body to return to the nest.
What he didn\'t know was that from afar, from the deepest darkness of the ocean, a creature opened its eyes because it sensed Nāgāntaka\'s presence.
"... GARUDA... I NEVER THINK THAT... I WILL MEET ONE... AGAIN... INTERESTING...
"
Said the creature in a deep voice, then closed his eyes again.
"... I\'LL SEE YOU... SOON... MY LONG LOST ENEMY..."
--------------
Nāgāntaka, who had entered the hill area and had approached the tree, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that nothing had happened to the nest. Nāgāntaka flapped his wings, but suddenly he felt all his strength disappear, which caused him to fall and hit the ground.
When it touched the ground, Nāgāntaka\'s body was again enveloped in light, and when the light disappeared, Nāgāntaka\'s body returned to its bird form, he groaned in pain because he felt like every part of his body was being crushed.
"... No... I can\'t lose consciousness right now... what... if..."
No matter how hard he tried to stay conscious, he still couldn\'t, this was the consequence he had to pay for using a power he shouldn\'t have been able to use yet, and so, along with the rising sun, Nāgāntaka lay unconscious on the ground.
--------------
"... After morning came and I regained consciousness, the first thing I saw was the sight of you still unconscious beside me, along with Lembut who was also unconscious... And Nāgāntaka who was also lying on the ground unconscious"
"..."
"... At that time, I couldn\'t move my body much, so I couldn\'t do anything, so I could only wait until Lembu woke up and then tell him to move Nāgāntaka"
"I see... That\'s quite a long story for an \'I-Will-Make-It-Short\' kind of Story... One questions... Why the Hell that we keep staying in this Island for a Damn five years strike?"
Hearing Taufik\'s question, Gaia giggled melodiously and then said to Taufik with a sweet smile that remained on her face.
"Hehehe~ it just happened, we didn\'t plan all this, originally we were going to leave this island after you regained consciousness... but during the time we stayed, humans slowly entered this island and unknowingly this island has become a nameless kingdom, inhabited by many humans from various tribes... and you know what?"
"... What?"
Hearing Taufik\'s question, Gaia smiled sweetly, and with a blushing face, she said to Taufik.
"... You are the King of this Nameless Kingdom and I... Was the Queen... So from the perspective of the people of this kingdom, you and I are basically husband and wife"
"..."
Hearing that, Taufik could only remain silent, and then lay back down on the bed with his eyes closed.
"... Why? You don\'t like it? Did I do something wrong?"
Gaia asked in a sad tone, thinking that Taufik didn\'t like what she did.
"No... It\'s just... Feel unreal for me, you know... For me, it\'s just like yesterday... Nothing will change even if I complain... so what did those two restless creatures do during those years, and where are they now?"
"Lembu and Nāgāntaka?"
"Hm"
"Those two are considered by the residents to be the Guardian spirit duo and have protected this island"
"... They did? Nāgāntaka is okay, but Lembu to?... Now I\'m curious about how are the residents of this kingdom, so where are they?"
"With the condition of the earth has calmed down a bit because the cracks have not occurred again for the past five years, they have no other activities, so they routinely carry out patrols to look for the remains of the Beasts that are still left on earth, and coincidentally today is the day of their patrol schedule... Ohh~ do you want to go on a date with me?
At the same time, see how our kingdom is?"
"... Seems like a plan for me, alright let\'s go on a date"
Hearing Taufik\'s answer, Gaia looked very happy and immediately stood up.
*Clap!*
"Okay, I\'ll go get ready; I\'ll send a servant to bring you a change of clothes, so wait, okay? I\'ll be right back"
Hearing Gaia\'s enthusiasm, Taufik could only nod his head, smiling faintly as he looked at Gaia who was hurriedly leaving the room.
Taufik closed his eyes again and let the sunlight hit his face. In this situation, Taufik called out a name in his heart.
\'... System?\'
[...]
But there was no answer at all, which only made Taufik sigh.
\'... So you haven\'t woken up even after five years have passed... somehow I feel a little lonely... \'
....
