Chapter 194 - 193- Sea's Wrath

"What's going on?!" the guild member yelled.

"Get back!" Zach yelled. "Go to the high ground! This must be a special skill of the boss!"

Victoria and Aria jumped on the rocks, but the guild member didn't.

"What are you doing?! Get your ass here!" Victoria shouted.

"No!" The guild member pulled out his sword from his sheath and dashed forward after saying, "I will be the one killing this boss!"

"You idiot! Get back!" Victoria yelled, but it was too late.

The guild member didn't listen to Victoria and Zach's warnings and dashed into the water.

"...!"

Zach was about to jump into the water he could grab and save the guild member, but the guild member's body was pulled into the water by dozens of tentacles.

Seconds later, the water turned red. Seemingly, the guild member was killed.

"Argh!" Zach groaned in annoyance and muttered, "Stupid asshole!"

Zach was angry that he died in a stupid way. It was almost as if he did that on purpose.

The water level rose even more, and most of the land was submerged. The rock where Aria, Victoria, and Zach were standing also started submerging.

The floor had become a sea.

"What are we going to do?! We don't even know the boss yet!" Victoria panicked. "Is it yet another unbeatable boss?!"

"Don't worry." Zach cracked his fingers using his thumb and said, "I have got this."

"But!" Victoria stopped when she saw the confident look on Zach's face. Then, she looked at Aria, and she nodded in return.

"Heh!" Zach smirked and started laughing out loud like a maniac. "Ahahahaha!"

Victoria grew anxious as she couldn't comprehend what Zach would laugh like when they were in a dire situation unless the person had lost their mind.

However, that wasn't the reason why Zach was laughing, nor was he laughing at something else.

He was laughing at the boss' bad luck.

"I have the Sea's blessing, bitch! I can control the water around me!" Zach yelled out loud with a smug look on his face.

He tried to control the water, and soon he heard a prompt.

[Congratulations! The Sea's Blessing has evolved into the Sea's Wrath!]

"...!" Zach was surprised to hear that. 'Even Blessings can evolve? But it was originally a skill named Sea's Blessing, so I guess that makes sense.'

In Gods' Impact, everything evolved when they reached a certain threshold and met the requirements. However, this was Zach's first time using the Sea's Blessing in a fight.

"But why did it evolve?" Zach wondered. "Is it because of the evolution tree?"

Zach had obtained Sea's blessing from the scroll. But when Aquitius the seventh removed the Sea from Zach's soul, Zach devoured the Sea God's power in the process and left Aquitius vulnerable but still the strongest in the Sea Realm.

When Zach used the Sea's Blessing, the blessing registered Zach as a Sea God since he had devoured the seventh's power. And that met the requirement for the skill to evolve into Sea's Wrath.

Its benefit was almost the same as Sea's Blessing; the change was in the power level.

Zach controlled the water around him and made some space so they could stand properly. Then, Zach removed the water from the ground and landed on his feet.

"Be careful" Victoria muttered under her breath and watched Zach with an anxious and concerned look on her face.

Zach showed her a 'thumbs-up' without looking at her.

'Okay. I can control it without any problems'

The water around Zach started aggravating as though the boss was furious because Zach was controlling its water.

"3! 2! 1!" Zach smirked and said, "Readyyyyy, go!"

Zach imitated the battle start of a game he used to play before his father's disappearance.

Zach clapped his hands together, and the Sea was divided into two parts.

"..!"

For a nano-second, Zach caught a glimpse of the tentacle. Seemingly, it was hiding on that spot.

'This is my first time using this in a battle, and it's tougher than I thought.'

Zach had to keep himself focused on the battle to control the water. And it was hard during the battle as he also had to attack and defend himself.

Zach slowly widened the gap between the two sides of the Sea, which revealed more land.

In a few seconds, Zach had taken control over half of the Sea.

'I can see the monster moving here and there. But it's fast as hell!'

Zach had decided to take control over every single drop of water on the floor.

'If there is no water, he wouldn't be able to move. Most likely, he can't survive on land, and that's the reason why it's not coming out.'

'Even if I am wrong, it doesn't matter since I am faster on land!'

Zach moved the control of the Sea from his two hands to only one hand since he was to control the rest too. He raised the water in the air to make more space.

When Victoria and Aria looked up, it looked like a floating river.

Aria's hands were itching to help Zach, but she knew Zach needed deep concentration, so she didn't call him out.

Victoria had her hand placed on the hilt of her sword. She was ready to jump down and slay the monster if it came out and tried to attack Zach.

Aria had also summoned her hand, and it was charged with a power attack.

Zach was worried about the attack and defense, but he was concerned for nothing. Aria was his attack, and Victoria was his defense.

Zach slowly took control over the 2/3rd of the Sea and merged it with the floating river.

'I can feel the weight in my hand. It's not much, but it's definitely heavy' Zach uttered inwardly.

Soon, Zach took control of the entire Sea.

He merged the water with the river and muttered, "Let's see what you can do now."

However, Zach was left baffled after seeing the boss.

"Aquarius?" he muttered in disbelief.
