Chapter 342 - An Unexpected Side Mission and a Terrible Feeling!
As the salty wind whistled in Kai's ears, he gawked at the gray-colored Notification in front of his eyes.
His entire face contorted as he looked at the Side Mission.
The consequences of failing this mission were obvious to him.
Lethifold would die, and he would transfigure into Darcie here, with no explanation, making his Comprehension shatter. Kai had been already counting on Lilith to take him back.
This notification toppled everything.
Not to ntion, there was an even bigger, and more hideous, matter that Kai was only now making a sense of.
Why had Lethifold brought him here?
This question Kai had already asked himself many tis. But only when he saw the mission's hint did he get an answer.
Motherfucker! Kai cursed through his greeted teeth. I don't have any magical creature's flesh right now. The only way to get one is...
He stared at the frothing waves and his heart skipped a beat.
What about the Pokemon Random World Tiline's Retribution?!
The effect of his minor epithet, the Unforgivable Cursed One, would definitely make him face a tsunami on the spot.
There was only one way.
Kai must hunt a magical creature with an unprecedented amount of speed, taking as little ti as possible.
There was not even a single second to waste.
Kai let out Petyr, making him rge inside him, and then threw himself off the cliff.
The wind rushing up the cliff hacked at his face, but Kai brutally ignored it. His entire figure blurred then, becoming hot.
Dense blue-colored overlapping scales began surfacing on his back, his hands, and his legs.
His chest gained a yellowish tone and a thick, finned tail, snapped at the space behind him. On his head, a three-pointed, dark blue crest surfaced, crowning him like a dragon.
In the next mont, Gyarados-Kai appeared in the magical world of Harry Potter, wielding Fangs.
Hisss!
A burst of misty breath escaped through Kai's mouth, and his entire figure got covered in blood flas.
Selfless Breathing Style!
With a splash, Kai tore his way into the sea.
At the sa mont, the entire cloudy sky and the vast sea trembled.
Crack-kkkkkkkkk!!!
One could see a gigantic storm brewing up, coming towards the cliff with a grudge so vile that the very wind started to reek of blood, thunder, and retribution.
Kai buried the sense of doom within his heart.
He, covered in blood flas, kept swimming down, his tail and legs flapping furiously, kicking at the water.
Suddenly, he noticed movent in the corner of his eyes.
It was a blue-red magical beast with the head and forequarters of a horse and the tail and hindquarters of a giant fish.
Its various fins and scale-like body possessed hues of hundreds of colors, shining brightly even in the blackness.
It was a Hippocampus!
The mont it sensed Kai, the enormous creature beat its tail and galloped away.
Kai's eyes had gone red with anger and urgency. He hacked Fangs, activating White Serpents.
The intangible serpents slithered through the water unhindered and coiled around the magical creature, binding it at the spot.
In one kick, Kai neared the magical creature and thrust the huge swords into its body.
Squelch!!
A burst of blue blood exploded out of the wound, and the Hippocampus whined before dying almost instantaneously.
Kai grabbed the giant beast and swam up.
The mont he reached the surface, he beca Dentor-Kai and flew up, leaving the sea.
When Kai landed on the cliff, he lifted his head and looked at the sea. It was as if he was seeing the Valley of Endless Rumbles materializing into the real world.
Yet, with Kai now out of the sea, both the sense of doom and the thunderstorm, accompanied by a world-ending tsunami, vanished gradually.
Kai fell on his back, sprawling on a bed of wet rock and moss with icy gusts of wind as a blanket.
To his left, the magical creature, Hippocampus, lay, bleeding, with its tongue hanging out of its mouth.
Its body was slimy and its tail was still beating, hamring on the rocks as if it had so life remaining about it.
Lethifold flew toward its food with one flutter, stretching and shrinking simultaneously.
Kai saw the most baffling scene, then.
The black cloak hovered above the dead body of the Hippocampus, stretched like a carpet.
From its bottom side, thousands of black string-like tentacles wriggled their way out and coiled around the dead body.
With a jerk, these tentacles pulled the beast into the black cloak.
Crunch!
With his already stumped gaze, Kai saw a mist of blood bursting out of Lethifold along with expressive crunching sounds that sent a shiver running down the spine of the very wind.
Kai then saw the lace-like black cloak gaining thickness in seconds, becoming as thick as a woolen cloak.
The Hippocampus must have weighed over 100 kg, but now not even its bones were left.

...
Kai couldn't even say sothing, but he knew he must.
"Take
back to the library," Kai almost begged, hoping that Lethifold wouldn't refuse him. "Beware of traps, though. Don't let
out if you sense HIS presence. OK?"
Lethifold fluttered in silence.
Kai pushed his weak figure up and staggered toward the magical creature.
Lethifold's woolen cloak-like appearance wrapped itself around Kai from head to toe. When it coiled one last ti, Kai had already returned to the place he called Absolute Dark.
In the next mont, Lethifold threw itself toward the sky, stretching like an incomprehensible long rope of silky and woolen cloth.
Then, it shrunk into a black point and vanished.
...
This ti, when Kai ca out in the open, his expression wasn't so listless anymore.
Kai's mind was alert, but only a few minutes were left. He must tidy up everything before becoming Darcie again.
Kai had just thrown himself towards the hearth, trying to replace the chairs and table at their original position, when his sight landed on the two nail-sized crystals, shining like blood.
Kai instinctively took several steps back.
This?! He thought, his mouth gaping at the scene. DEATH didn't take them?!
Reluctantly, Kai used Telekinesis to bring a crystal near him and observed it. It seed authentic enough.
A deep frown settled on his face because of this inexplicable phenonon.
The answer ca to him like a strike of a thunderbolt.
Fuck! He cursed, almost throwing the crystal into the fire. HE is goading
into using the sa thod again. Damn! HE must have tampered with them already. I think even using these crystals to heal my soul in another Random World would be of no use to
now. Tch!
Kai fud in helplessness.
With a flick of his hand, he put both crystals into the box and threw them into his MRB.
There were still many ways to make use of these crystals, he knew. After all, they were Philosopher's Stones, costing him 33 million Mission Credits each.
I just hope everything goes well with Jack Sparrow's Compass, Kai thought, seeing into the fire.
He didn't know why, but with so much happening today, he was having a terrible feeling about the upcoming jump.
