Saga of Atlantis-Chapter 76 Skipping Levels, Fighting The Boss

Looking at the gaping mouth of the monster, I desperately tried to move away from its grasp. However, whatever I attempted, nothing seemed to free me from its relentless hold.

The small suction cups, numbering in the millions throughout the tentacle, held me in place, leaving me with no way to escape.

I glanced downward, only to realize that we were just above the mouth of the monster. Razor-sharp teeth surrounded us within its mouth as it brought us in closer, and its red eyes glinted with madness.

Its mouth was already filled with the gruesome aftermath of its rampage. Tens of people, their bodies torn apart, guts and blood, were strewn across its gaping maw.

Limbs and body parts were scattered in a grotesque display, with heads and legs caught between its razor-sharp teeth.

'Looks like I need to use it', I sighed as I thought about it. If I use it now, I would have to give answers to Sylvia about it.

'Plan B it is' I thought as I looked around, only to notice that Sylvia was occupied shifting the people out of the city.

I then shifted my gaze towards the other three members of the Noble faction who had the monster's tentacle wrapped around them with me. They were also struggling to free themselves.

"Yo!" I shouted out loud, grabbing their attention. None of them were remarkable, so I didn't bother to remember their faces.

"What?" one of them asked. He was the closest to me—uncomfortably and disgustingly close.

"Nothing! I just wanted to tell you guys that you died a dog's death!" I shouted, and with that, the kraken loosened its grip, and we all started to fall down into its gaping mouth.

{Wing's of the Phoenix}

With that one thought, beautiful and mesmerizing wings of white flames formed on my back. The shirt I was wearing got burned into a crisp, leaving my upper body bare and naked.

I flapped my wings twice, propelling myself above in the air, away from the monster's mouth. I soon reached an altitude that gave me a clear view, allowing me to survey the city freely.

The most noticeable thing was the complete devastation below. The entire city lay in ruins, submerged beneath the water. Only the roofs of tall buildings and structures managed to breach the water's surface, creating a haunting view of destruction.

The once-vibrant city has now been replaced by a watery graveyard, with remnants of a once-thriving port now hidden beneath the waves.

Then I shifted my gaze towards the source of the destruction.

"It's disgusting", I mumbled as I looked at the creature.

The Kraken is a legendary enormous sea creature that emerges from the depths of the ocean with an aura of acinent maliciousness. Its gigantic appearance, which resembles a horrific merger of cephalopod and horror, may send shivers down even the most brave souls.

The monstrous creature had a massive body covered in slippery, iridescent scales that glinted in the dim light of the abyss. Its massive mass dwarfed even the tallest building, and its hundreds of tentacles writhed with eerie grace.

Millions of small, serrated suckers lined each tentacle, ready to grasp onto anything unfortunate enough to come within its reach. The surface of these appendages glittered with a disgusting mixture of slime and seaweed, which added to the overall horrific aspect.

"What the fuck!" I exclaimed, swiftly flapping my wings to sidestep the swipe of its tentacle.

"Why the fuck is it still targeting me?" I grumbled, narrowly dodging more tentacles that lashed out in my direction.

Circling around the kraken, I observed its attacks becoming more destructive, thrashing anything that came between us.

To conserve the mana I had, I moved downward. With precise control of my body, I landed on the rooftop of one of the buildings. Shifting my focus back on the giant creature in front of me, I retrieved another spear from my inventory, replacing the one I had lost.

Swiftly, I assumed a battle stance, ready to face the monstrous bastard.

*ROOAAOORR*

The Kraken roared, all its eyes filled with madness, shifting towards me. It swiped two of its tentacles towards me, one from each side. Wherever they went, destruction followed. Buildings crumbled, and water splashed away in the wake of the powerful onslaught.

"Nah, I changed my mind," I mumbled, loosening my battle stance as I witnessed the destruction those tentacles were causing. No matter the circumstances, I didn't have main character syndrome. If I couldn't win, I would run—no questions asked.

{Star Energy}

Inhaling deeply, I triggered the energy revolving around my heart. Ever since I acquired the "Apex Chad Body," I could use all three energies in my body seamlessly, without any problems. This allowed me to experiment with Star Energy, and only I knew how broken this energy truly was.

"Hmm." I stopped what I was doing, sensing a presence behind me. Both tentacles were still coming towards me, but I immediately relaxed upon seeing Sylvia behind me.

Sylvia extended both of her hands, and in an instant, it was as if the air around us had solidified, creating blades of wind that swiftly sliced the two tentacles into hundreds of small pieces, making the kraken cry in writhing agony.

"The hell are you doing here, stupid disciple?" Sylvia said it frustratingly as she looked at me.

"Me? Nothing. Thought I could play with water here," I replied, shrugging my shoulders.

"Huh? Why now?" she asked, tilting her head in confusion.

"That bastard dragged me here! Why would I come willingly?" I shouted, pointing at the Kraken, which was inching closer towards us, looking pretty pissed.

"Where are the others?" she asked, changing the topic.

"Outside the city," I replied, walking closer towards her.

"Unreliable, stupid disciple. I told you to take care of them!" Her frustration was growing by every second.

"I know it's my fault. I will go back," I replied, moving back to give her space.

"Go back to them, now!" she commanded as she moved me behind her back as the Kraken started to attack us again.

"Where are the other powerful people in the city? Why are they not here?", I asked, looking around. She was the only one here who was saving the people and fighting that monster.

"Either dead or they run away, not like they were of any help", she replied, stretching a little.

"Can you kill it, Master?" I asked as I moved towards the edge of the building.

"Hard to say. Its regeneration is the main problem. It will take time," she replied, bending her knees.

"Eden," as I was about to move away, she called me.

"Yes?" I looked back at her.

"We will have a proper talk after all this is over," she said as the wind around her moved.

"Yes," I replied in seriousness as I jumped down the building while still facing her, and she jumped up right on the face of the Kraken.

{Wings of the Phoenix}

Flapping my wings, I moved upward, looking back at her one last time.

"Damn",

I couldn't help but mumble as I observed Sylvia's daring assault on the Kraken. With incredible agility, she leaped directly at the monstrous creature, delivering a powerful kick to its face. The impact echoed through the air, but the Kraken still managed to retaliate with a thrash of its tentacles.

Sylvia, however, was quick to respond. She harnessed the power of the wind and fire, creating a lethal combination that sliced and burned the Kraken into pieces.

The air crackled with the intensity of her elemental assault, and flames flickered around the dismembered parts of the sea monster.

Despite her relentless attacks, the Kraken's regeneration proved to be quite a challenge.

The severed pieces began to reattach themselves to the main body, like a gruesome puzzle solving itself against the laws of nature. The sea monster, although damaged, continued its relentless pursuit.

I watched in awe as Sylvia unleashed a second round of attacks. This time, she focused her energy on creating razor-sharp gusts of wind that sliced through the Kraken's flesh.

Flames erupted from her body, further intensifying the assault. Yet, the resilient monster continued to reform, its regeneration defying the destructive forces unleashed upon it.

Frustration etched Sylvia's face as she battled against the seemingly invincible Kraken. Despite her mastery over the elements, the sea monster's relentless regeneration proved to be an unyielding obstacle.

"She will really need some time to kill it", I mumbled as I observed her. In only a minute, she had already sliced the monster hundreds of times.

Flapping my wings, I started to move towards the city walls. If all goes well with the way it happened in the game, then Elysia will awaken her bloodline while Nadya will get betrayed and kidnapped.

"Hey, Edda", I called out my system, thinking about the crazy idea that I had now.

[Yes?]

"What will happen if I kill Elysia now?"
