Child of Destiny

...

Bang!

A collision of psychic powers created an explosion that shook the entire sea. The shockwave sent violent ripples on the surface of the water that slowly turned into raging waves that went in every direction.

Grimrace was flying in the air using levitation magic with his Psychic Powers. He was looking down from his position and glaring at the giant jellyfish below him. freёwebnovel.com

Invisible ripples could be felt around him as he controlled his powers. Realizing that the Psychic Powers were not enough to take down this monster, he decided to use his elemental transformation.

'Elemental Transformation: Yasha Transformation'

With this transformation, his aura rose sharply. He released a suffocating pressure that immediately suppressed the one that the jellyfish monster possessed.

At the same time, he summoned his shadow powers, manifesting a huge group of shadow daggers in the air.

He spread his arms with his palms facing the sky. He seemed to be acting like some sort of god before waving his hands forward and hugging the air with his arms.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Quickly after that, a hail of shadow daggers and knives fell from the sky and rained down on the giant jellyfish. They left a series of intertwining lines in the air as they fell and produced sharp sounds that cut through the wind.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The jellyfish tried to block the falling shadow knives with its psychic powers, but Grimrace controlled each one of them very skillfully, changing their trajectory mid-flight before proceeding to attack at a tricky angle.

Some of the shadow knives collided with the psychic barrier, but there was still a lot that managed to bypass it and landed on the body of the monster as well as its tentacles.

But despite how strong the impact was, the giant jellyfish seemed to be completely unaffected. Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be an invisible layer of aura right above the skin of the monster, protecting it.

Swoosh!

Raising its tentacles, the jellyfish pointed them at Grimrace, who was in the air, before shooting beams of light from their tip.

Grimrace quickly responded and did a series of aerial maneuvers to dodge while also waving his hands to send his shadow knives down.

After dodging for quite a while and realizing that he was being pushed back once again, Grimrace suddenly paused while extending his hand above. He opened his hand wide while summoning his Psychic Powers and slamming it down immediately after.

Swoosh!

A huge invisible hand was formed above Grimrace before slamming down along with his actions.

Bang!

The invisible hand collided against an invisible barrier, preventing it from going further. Then the aftershock from the impact sent the water flying in the air, creating a curtain as high as the stone wall in the distance.

Grimrace made a grabbing motion as he maintained his extended arm. Following his actions, the huge invisible hand made of Psychic Powers suddenly tightened, grabbing onto the barrier of the jellyfish.

After that, Grimrace gritted his teeth as he put a lot of strength on his arms, lifting the jellyfish along with its barrier.

Realizing what the abomination was trying to do, the jellyfish suddenly started moving crazily, slamming its tentacles around and creating more curtains of water.

With the water that was sent in the air, the jellyfish used its powers to form a giant spear that was pointing at Grimrace.

Swoosh!

Without further ado, the monster sent the spear forward, disrupting Grimrace, who was focusing on controlling the invisible hand.

Unable to divide his focus between the two, Grimrace chose to let go of the jellyfish and dodge the incoming spear.

After that, Grimrace stabilized his balance in the air, spreading his arms wide and summoning more of his shadow powers.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Dark tentacles came out from its body and spread in every direction, seemingly forming a net surrounding the area.

Not long after, a cage was formed and trapped the two of them inside.

The giant jellyfish felt an intense danger when the cage was formed, which was why it immediately released more of its psychic powers and forcefully pushed the cage, trying to break it.

…

In the distance, Shin was watching the battle with a slight frown. It was not because of the current pace of the battle, nor due to the current state that it had. Instead, he felt a strange energy coming from jellyfish aside from that corrupted energy similar to an abomination spirit.

It was very vague at first, but he felt that it was getting stronger as more time went by. It was as if this foreign energy was getting clear the more the monster used its psychic powers.

When he focused more on it, Shin felt that it was coming from the body of the giant jellyfish.

While he was lost in his thoughts, Hanzo suddenly appeared beside him and commented. "Now this is interesting. It looks like that abomination friend of ours is quite lucky this time."

Shin turned to the old spirit and flashed an inquiring look.

Hanzo did not reply for a few seconds as he was trying to make sure that he was right. He then nodded his head and added. "That Sea King must have a Sea Soul within its body. I am not sure how it ends up on its hands, but I can assure you that it is something good."

"What is a Sea Soul?" asked Shin as he turned his gaze at the battlefield. He did not know when the battle ended, but it looked like the monster wave had finally calmed down a little.

The number of sea monsters was reduced to the point that they did not need to worry about them anymore. The rest of the elemental spirits were already more than enough to deal with them, which was why Hanzo had plenty of time to idle around.

Hanzo thought for a moment before continuing. "It is a natural treasure that is usually used for nurturing the soul of an individual, or especially used to heal a soul that suffered from serious spiritual attack."

"If I am not wrong, this Sea King must have stumbled upon this treasure and wanted to use it to reach the next level. Unfortunately, something must have happened, which is why it is currently in its wounded state."

He then paused for a moment before continuing. "I am quite confident that whatever happened to it, this Sea King must be currently running away."

"It then tries to use the Sea Soul to recover from its wound somewhere in the depths of the sea, but it then encountered another incident when it suffered another serious injury, worsening its already terrible state."

"Then the Sea Soul must have contaminated in the middle, ending it up with what we are seeing right now. It loses its mind and goes berserk when it is unable to control the Sea Soul, which is why we are here right now."

Shin then nodded his head before asking. "Then does it mean-… whatever that Sea Soul or something is, it will be helpful to Grimrace?"

"Not only it will be helpful, but he will also experience something that only a very few Elementals have experienced in the past-…" Hanzo trailed his words for a couple of seconds as he watched the battle. "…-and that is evolving into an Elemental Being that is acknowledged by the world."

Shin confused looked at Hanzo when he heard had and asked the old spirit to explain further. "What do you mean by that."

Hanzo smiled mysteriously. "What I mean is, he will become an ancestor of his elemental race if he has gotten a little luckier."

Shin could not completely understand it, but he could at least tell that it was a good thing for Grimrace, which also meant good for him.

He just shrugged his shoulders before casting his gaze back to the battle in the distance.

***

In the meantime, in the headquarters of the World Gaming Organization, Carlos was currently inside his office, sitting on his chair and looking at the report that had just been given to him.

He leaned back on the chair, looked at the ceiling, then closed his eyes before massaging his temples.

He was completely exhausted and suffering from a serious headache.

He was wondering whether a certain player was his nemesis in his past life or something. He felt that whenever everything was getting a little better, the worst possible event always happened, and the center of everything was this particular player.

Taking a deep breath, he looked at the screen projected in front of him before turning back the report that was given to him by Lohengrin.

"Why is this stupid monster in his territory and become part of the Territorial Quest?" mumbled Carlos as he repeatedly read the report.

He could not blame the man in question either as it was not the fault of the player. Shin was supposedly doing his own thing when the sea monster entered his territory intending to invade it.

However, this event would cause a serious problem for them as this sea monster possessed something that was supposedly a crucial item for a main scenario quest.

Carlos could already see what was going to happen after this.

Shin would kill the sea monster, get the Sea Soul, use it to promote one of his Elemental Spirit Companions, and then get another overpowered Elemental Being after.

That was something very good for Shin, too beneficial even, especially when he would get almost all his Elemental Spirit Companions into a Supreme Spirit or Monarch Elemental.

With that number, Shin would most likely trigger another major event by accident if this continued.

That was just one of the problems, and it was quite acceptable since they were already somewhat used to it.

He had been doing these crazy things from time to time now, so the people of the World Gaming Organization were somewhat numbed to it.

But the real trouble came after he killed the Sea King and got the Sea Soul as that monster and natural treasure was supposedly meant for another quest.

It was something that certain factions needed to save someone – an important NPC related to a main quest scenario of the game.

If Shin acquired the Sea Soul and used it to promote his abomination spirit afterward, then the Sea Soul, a rare natural treasure, would be lost. This would lead to a delay on the side of the main quest scenario, or worse, lead to the death of that NPC.

This would then result in the deletion of a series of quests related to that main quest scenario. All the hard work and effort of the different departments when designing that Main Scenario Quest would be wasted.

The worst part of this was the game developers could not get involved in this matter and could only watch while hoping that a miracle would happen and save them.

The very person, who saved them from their earlier predicament, was now back to being 'himself' and become their mortal enemy.

"Is it guaranteed that the main quest scenario will be deleted once he acquired that item? Or will it create another path for the other side?" he mumbled as he thought of the Super AI Chronos.

He heard that the chairman had recently updated the system of the game, making it more advanced and improving its ability to calculate different outcomes within the game.

Due to the recent events that happened within the game, particularly some of the accidents that gave the World Gaming Organization a lot of problems, the chairman had come up with this solution.

Carlos just hoped that it would be enough.

But if it was not-…

Just the thought of it made Carlos miserable.

He then turned to other virtual screens, which were showing two Miracle Players. He stared at them for a moment before praying. "Let's just hope that these two will create their respective miracle and save us from this."
