Angel Monarch

Chapter 126: Battle in the Deep

The pain was excruciating, but Will didn't let his mind falter even for a second.

His whole midsection was in the maws of the real Colossal Sea Devourer, and it was getting slowly crushed by its four jaws.

Using his gigantic form Will tried to wiggled free, but it only caused more pain to coarse through his already mangled body. He couldn't even use his arms since they were all kept immovable by the yaws and teeth of the monster.

Or at least he thought they were, but as it turns out one of his scythes were still very much free. It was contained within the monsters mouth, but at least it could deal some damage.

'Let's see how does it feel to eat a knife!'

He began wildly swinging his arm and feel it bite into the creature's skin. It even managed to make an indent on the bone of one jaw.

From the monster's throat a deep reverberating sound came, which made Will's head spin.

'How?... What?... Is this a mental attack?! From this huge beast?... Just how many tricks does it have!'

It wasn't a very strong attack, but Will knew he was capable of something lot stronger.

'It must be because of all those smaller monsters, he was controlling them which means he probably felt each death. It weakened his mental capabilities by a lot, that's why it is using physical attacks... That's all it has!'

This realization was great and all, but the monster still didn't release him. He kept on swinging his arm which caused a small trail of blood as they descended further into the depths of the sea.

There was only darkness around them, Will couldn't see anything, but the monster didn't seem bothered by it at all.

'Why would it be? It's a fucking nocturnal hunter, it can probably see in the dark without any issue!'

At this point any light he saw above has fully disappeared. With his eyesight gone there was only one method that he could use for observation. He closed his eight eyes and focused on the water's movement.

Will felt the movement of smaller creatures and larger ones all around them, but one held his interest in particular. It was moving with high speed towards them, but it's size was way smaller than anything else... almost human-like.

Sarah was following the blood trail as fast as possible. Seeing Will getting dragged down caused a bit of panic in her, but she was taught to expect the unexpected and always be prepared.

After letting herself be scared for one second she centered her mind and went after the monster. Down here no one from the group has even a chance of helping... They were fully on their own.

Finally after a minute of diving straight down she caught up to them.

She grabbed onto one of the creature's eyes and stabbed her trident in the middle of the pupil as deep as possible. Will instantly got released as the beast's movements turned erratic.

It tried to got a hold of Sarah, but her body was just like the water... It can be contained, but never held.

She disengaged the beast and checked on Will, which was a foolish thing to do since he was perfectly fine...

How did she know that?

Because he was currently had both of his scythes lodged into the monster.

It went haywire again and began swimming fast. Moving straight downward, they were started to be afraid. The speeds they were moving was deadly if they suddenly hit the seabed, which caused a concern to build up within Will.

An idea appeared in his head and he began moving the scythes, guiding the monster up.

He controlled the beast for a while, but soon he began to slip and finally got shaken off, the worst part was the monster moved on very fast, leaving both behind.

Will turned towards Sarah to observe her movements, but she had no idea what to do now either. They were kilometers bellow the surface, and the hunt still wasn't over.

With nothing else to do they began to swim in the direction the creature left, and soon came face to face with it again.

They guessed the monster would try to run, but they overestimated its intelligence by a lot. It was too insane to leave from a hunt with an empty stomach.

It moved with high speeds, and using the four long tentacles it got hold of Will's four arms, but not the rest of his body. Using his own tentacles he dragged one of the four near his mouth and bit clean through it.

He specifically chosen one of the scythe arms as his hand to be freed, and after a few quick swipes all four of his arms were free. Around him was a huge amount of blood and four large remnants of the monster's main tentacles.

But again it did not have any self preservation skills, instead of backing off it doubled down on the attack. It moved faster than a creature its size supposed to and soon two of Will's arms were bitten off.

In this form he couldn't scream, but he most definitely wanted to. Luckily it was the two arms with hands at their end, which meant he could at least cause some mutual destruction to the devourer.

They both came away severely wounded, but unlike Will the creature had other forms of attacks.

A sonic boom echoed through the waters making both Will's and Sarah's minds hurt from the extreme pressure.

'Dammit!... He can control water way more effectively than either of us... His increasing the pressure and constantly makes sonic waves to prevent us from moving... What the fuck do we do now?!'

He was out of ideas and as the pressure increased on his body, the pain returned even higher than before. This went on until something finally changed... A small bubble of air appeared around him and Sarah.

Unknowingly at some point he transformed back into a human and now both of them were stuck with a horrible noise all around them. When the sonic waves hit the surface of the bubble they changed into something that could be heard by humans... It was like very loud bad singing.

"What do we do?" Asked Will, he didn't try hiding the fact that he had no clue of the next step. But fortunately Sarah was the smarter out of the two of them.

"It's easy! We use my bubble to slowly approach the sea devourer, and when we reach it you kill it! Any questions?... No good, because here we go!"

While doing this attack the beast had to be stationary it seemed, and also had to concentrate. It didn't notice them closing in on it, but the closer they had gotten the more issues arose.

The first and biggest one was the size of the monster. It wasn't hundred meter in length as said in the report, but it was definitely twice the size of Will's transformed self. It seemed even bigger from a human body, so how does he supposed to kill it?

The second problem was the ever increasing soundwaves, it was already starting to hurt again, but they could hold out for a bit longer.

When they were touching distance from the monster they stopped.

"NOW WHAT?" Shouted Will over the soundwaves. The grin that appeared on Sarah's face made a deep fear crawl upon his spine, not a fear of death or pain but something much worse... Humiliation.

"IT'S EASY WE GO AND CLIMB INTO ITS NOSTRIL UNTIL WE GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO ITS BRAIN TO KILL IT! ARE YOU READY? JUST KIDDING I DON'T CARE!"

As Sarah finished speaking the bubble began rising until it reached a hole that could fit two person standing abreast easily. Will sighed dejectedly and began moving inside the nose of the beast.

After a minute or two of walking Will soon realized that he won't going to have a more disgusting experience than this in the rest of his life... He will make sure of it.

Since the size of the tunnel was so big, it was full of a lot of very disturbing things. There were a few human items, remnants of corpses, bones, and some slimy thing that resembled snot.

Sometimes it covered the whole tunnel and they had to go through it. At this point he killed Sarah hundreds of times with his eyes, but she always just laughed a bit then moved on.

After another couple of minutes they finally reached some soft tissue that seemed to lead into the creatures brain. Will quickly cut through it and they moved further inside.

Before them was a large sized brain about ten meters across, and through the large hole they made, seawater began flowing inside. The monster began moving all over the place, like it was in a lot of pain.

Will soon understood why, the water within the brain had a very different composition from seawater. Which meant that the hole he made was slowly killing the beast. It also meant that he had to move as fast as possible and cut the brain apart swiftly.

Even after all the pain and suffering it caused, he didn't let it suffer and instead made his passing fast.

When the monster finally stopped moving he reached out his hand and touched the brain tissue.

It was time to evolve!
