Chapter 2026 The Mershark Witch Princess

-----

FLUOOOOSH!

As Gaby fought the Aberration with her ghostly ship and her slime companion, the rest of the Realm of Atlantis was in utter chaos.

The seas were constantly waving uncontrollably, and because the Outer God's tentacles had shook the stone base of the sea, it began to change the entire course of the oceans.

Huge tsunamis started to consume every small island in this Realm, where there were no continents, but a series of islands and archipelagos scattered across many areas.

Most of the islands were simply filled with Monsters or Divine Beasts, and the largest populations of mortals were mostly inside of Poseidon's Divine Realm.

That is, mostly. Although Poseidon governed the seas and this entire Realm, there were many tribes of people that didn't obey his rules, and because he was mostly passive about it, he let many tribes develop on their own.

Eventually the tribes gathered, forming entire civilizations. Some fell by natural disasters; others were destroyed in wars. Poseidon had once offered them to join on his utopia, but not many had joined him, deciding to live their own lives, free from his control.

However now, when the entire Realm was being destroyed, collided with another Realm, all while an Outer God was attempting to devour both of them, is when some of these mortals began to regret their ancestors decisions to stay free from Poseidon's control.

They might had been controlled by him, but in this situation, they would at least be safe inside his Divine Realm! Now, the seas consumed many islands, and it was a matter of time for them to consume those where large groups of people lived.

Although the Islands and Nations of Atlantis have changed many times over the course of thousands of years, now the largest Nations were located in two separate areas, the Great Archaea Archipelago, and the Matanui Island.

Tribes of Mermen, Mershark, Sea Elves, Sea Goblins, and of course, brown-skinned humans adapted to coastal sea-faring lives gathered, a union that was the result of many years of wars that ended in a seemingly peaceful era.

The Great Archaea Archipelago was the home of several unified nations, although the space was small, they lived in harmony with nature and the bountiful seas.

However, once this entire tragedy struck, things became completely chaotic. The inhabitants quickly moved to the capital, covered in walls, and protected by a magic barrier created on ancient times.

The swimming races could not escape into the seas, as they were chaotic and would simply send them straight to their deaths, refuging on land, the people hoped for the best.

SPLAAAASH!

The seas kept clashing against the magic barrier, the people trembled in fear, hugging their loved ones, there was nowhere else to run to anymore.

SPLAAAASSSHH...!

"Mommy... I'm scared..." A little mermaid girl hugged her mother, as she started to cry in her shoulders. "Is Mother Sea angry with us? What did we do wrong?"

Crack, crack...!

"It is not Mother Sea... She has been twisted, controlled..." Her mother looked into the skies, the invisible magical barrier gaining countless cracks. "The darkness coming from another plane... It has come to reclaim our seas..."

"What do we do?" The little girl cried.

Crack...!

"I don't know..." Her mother hugged her, beginning to cry. "But I know that I won't let you go... Even if the seas come, I'll stay with you..."

Crack... CRACK!

Above the castle in the middle of the city of the Archaea Archipelago, the young Merman Prince glanced into the distance, his face filled with despair...

"Is this our punishment for not having taken Lord Poseidon's hand when we could? The sins of our ancestors..." The man sighed.

CRACK... CRACK...!

"The Sea has come back... to reclaim what it is hers..."

CRAAAASSSHHH!

The barrier completely shattered, the seas emerging from within the cracks, the enormous tsunami threatening to engulf everything shattering the whole barrier once a large crack was made!

SPLAAAAASSSSHH!!!

Everyone closed their eyes, hugging their loved ones. Others remained in silence, facing their fate while looking at the chaotic seas one last time...

Yet once they felt like something was off, they opened their eyes once more, finding out that... things had not changed, they were not being consumed by the raging, chaotic seas.

And instead, the seas had shaped themselves to protect them?!

"W-What is this?!" The Prince opened his eyes in shock, noticing something.

A beautiful Mershark girl with long red hair and a charming smile floated in the skies, wearing a beautiful blue dress, her graceful body covered in many jewelry-decorated accessories.

The coral-decorated staff glowed brightly, imbuing, and amplifying her powers to completely new levels... She alone emanated a powerful Aura of not only the might of the Seas, but also of divinity and holiness.

"A-A beautiful Saintess... Ahh, her radiance... A goddess...?" The Prince muttered, tears flowing from his eyes. "In all my life... I have never seen such a beautiful woman before!"

"Mommy, look!" The little mermaid girl said, pointing into the skies.

"W-What... A Saintess- no, a Goddess?!" Her mother was shocked.

The Gods of the Seas had long ago abandoned the mortals that didn't followed Poseidon, leaving the mortals rather defenseless, and whenever a new God surged, he was often quickly recruited by Poseidon, so seeing a Goddess of the Sea was like a miracle beyond miracles!

"Calm down, everything is going to be okay now that I am here." The girl spoke, her appearance immediately being recognizable for the people, she was a Mershark, no less!

However, she had horns as well, and her scales were also dragon-like, and above all... She had a pair of beautiful fairy-like wings of sapphire and golden color growing from her back!

A Fairy Mershark?! Has something like that ever existed before? nove.lb.1n

"Aarae, well done!"

Suddenly, a galloping and handsome centaur of the seas, a Kelpie with sea dragon-like features emerged at her side.

"Ervin, dear. I'm handling things alright, but the seas constantly keep pushing!" Aarae gritted her teeth. "Would it be better to teleport everyone inside my Divine Realm?"

"I would prefer that rather! Don't push yourself please, you're pregnant after all..." Ervin sighed, worried about his beloved wife, caressing her belly, which had grown a big in these last weeks since her pregnancy.

"You don't have to worry about that! Mom always fought when she was pregnant of us two as well!" Sighed Aarae. "Anyways-"

TRUUUMMM...!

However, before the lovebirds could continue their banter, he seas shook one last time!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"GRUOOOHHH!"

Several explosions descended from the dark skies; enormous meteors made of crystalized miasma descended into the island!

And from within them, as if they were eggs, Miasmic Aberrations surged, quickly shapeshifting into sea creatures-like forms, swimming across the tsunami waves, rushing to stop Aarae!

"Miasmic Aberrations?!" Ervin quickly summoned his golden trident. "Your mom's fighting the big guy over there, but I never thought that its small minions would come all the way over here!"

"It seems that the Outer God controlling them even wants these poor people dead..." Sighed Aarae. "Are even mortal souls delicious for that monster or something?! Ugh, I'm getting a bit angry now... To go so far just to take the lives of a few mortals, he's doing it intentionally! I won't forgive him..."

"Let's crush these things first, honey!" Ervin said, gathering his Divine Powers.

"Alright!" Aarae nodded, a confident smile surged in her flawless face. "[Primordial Sea Witch Queen Magic]: [Oceanic Judgement]!"

TRUUUUMMMM...!
