Chapter 118: 118. Mountains?

"Please don’t analyse anything." Tyler requested.

"Too late." Lilly Gomes murmured.

"Lets see you were kidnapped by Tyler." Lily Gomes just said.

"Why do you think so?" Mathilda hid her surprise and asked.

"From what I remember, you went missing just a few days before our departure. Also There is a cuff mark on your wrists. With your perverted nature, it might be one of your kinks. But the cuff mark didn’t disappear, which means it should be Aura Restriction cuffs. Tyler worked in the Isle of Blood for a few days, he must have taken one from there. Those marks will take some time to disappear, which means you were locked in the ship for many days." She said Swiftly.

Tyler sighed. Mathilda was baffled.

"Ok. Now I understand why you were afraid." Mathilda said to Tyler with a realisation.

"Alright, Alright. Even though Tyler is a little perverted."

"*cough*" Tyler coughed..

"He still won’t go far to kidnap a girl. Which means he somehow learned one of his secrets." Lily Gomes stopped.

"Alright. I will stop analysing the situation. I don’t wanna lose a friend just for some secret." Lily Gomes then took the fruit and threw it straight at Mathilda’s mouth which just opened. The fruit blocked her mouth.

"I know you are trying to drag me too by revealing his secret. Bye b!tch. Also Tyler, If you can’t kill her, then just turn her into your slave. " Lily Gomes gave some ideas and left.

"Sex Slave? I am in. I will take care of all your women when you are busy." Mathilda spat the fruit out.

"The Oscillation Tower. I heard there are some witches that live there that sell soul contracts. I will give you the freedom after signing that." Tyler said.

Mathilda stopped Tyler. She looked Little angry, "Am I not enough for you to push me down?"

Tyler was speechless and he said, "Even if we make out, I will still not trust you completely. "

Tyler left while saying those words. Then he came back again.

"Follow me to my office."

Mathilda was once again Locked again.

"I am bored sitting in the same room. Send me some maids." she demanded.

Tyler sighed and said, "Nope. You already corrupted all my servants. No more girls for you."

Few days later

"The first stance, stretching exercise. One two three four, two two three four..."

"The second stance, chest expansion exercise. One two three four, two two three four..."

"The third stance, kicking exercise. One two three four, two two three four..."

"What are you doing?" Tyler asked, looking at the servants doing exercise.

"It’s a daily routine. They need to shape up a little bit. Now, you go and swim." Lily Gomes pointed at the sea.

Tyler jumped into the sea. He tried Kun Swimming method which he received as inheritance. Tyler swam at full speed around his giant ship. He felt half of his energy drained. It is still better than before.

There is another thing Tyler discovered. Tyler bit his finger and blood began to flow. He placed the wounded finger in the water. The wound is slowly recovering. Even though it is slower than using Aura or Prana to recover, Tyler didn’t use any sort of energy or healing Items. It’s just sea water. Kun’s Mystical ability to recover in Sea.

Tyler looked at the back of his left hand.

"Zuzia?" Tyler called.

The Dragon Tattoo vibrated a little as it was saying ’five more minutes. Let me sleep a little longer.’

Tyler then Jumped up from the water. Ice formed under his leg whenever he jumped up. With that he reached the top.

The servants already went back to work. Tyler saw Silvia drawing something in the ground and arranging it.

’Should be summoning Array.’ Tyler inwardly thought. He thought of making Silvia a Mage. Or a dual practitioner like himself. Summoners are usually mages. Even Tyler doesn’t understand about Mages and Warriors. For him it feels like Cultivation got divided into two.

Chef Darla brought his food to his room. She quickly placed it and ran away like escaping from a tiger. Tyler thought that she was just shy.

’Hmm.. why is he not making any moves? Is he waiting for the right opportunity?’ Her thoughts ran wild, ’What should I do if he makes a move? Should I resist or should I give in?’

She stood there and shook her head and nodded her head. Chief servant Situ, who noticed her from afar, was confused, "What is the chef doing?"

Due to harsh weather, the ship took a turn. The south was getting closer and closer. Tyler and the others can see the stars in the sky are getting very visible. The Aurora lights in the horizon are just spectacular.

The weather is getting colder and colder as they move further south. Thankfully Tyler already loaded up lots of winter dresses.

The Ship will stop at an Island to sell and buy something. Tyler also didn’t stop his daily training. Lily Gomes would train him every day and also throw him into the sea.

He also visits Mathilda just to calm her down. He also asked Mana to look after her. Surprisingly these two hit off really well. It makes sense because these two are certified perverts.

Sometimes Mana would send her pov to his mind. He saw naked Mathilda doing many things. The most hilarious thing is - it was requested by Mathilda herself.

Tyler is not a saint. But decided not to touch her for now. Chef Darla as always delivered the food to him. Looked at him with some expectations and left with disappointment. Tyler was confused but got used to her behaviour.

"We are reaching ’The Oscillation Tower’ in two days." Lily Gomes informed him.

Tyler sighed in relief. He took the last cheese sandwich on the table.

"Tyler, we are going to travel the whole world together. So some secrets might be uncovered on their own. So, it’s ok to trust the people around you." She said as she patted his shoulder and walked away.

Tyler took a bite on his ’sandwich’ but he bit the air. His last sandwich is missing, "It’s ok to trust the people around me?"

Lily Gomes took a bite of the sandwich she just stole from Tyler.

┉┈ ◈ ◉ ◈ ┈┉

The next day, the entire ship shook violently. Giant waves surged in the middle of the sea, alarming everyone on board.

Tyler and the others rushed to the deck, staring at the anomaly. A colossal creature, as large as their ship, emerged from the depths. This was Tyler’s first encounter with such a massive being.

"Something is wrong," Lily Gomes muttered.

"What do you mean?" Tyler asked, tilting his head in confusion.

"There’s no way a creature of that size could cause waves this immense," she explained.

As she finished speaking, sharp mountain-like structures rose from the sea, encircling the giant creature. They swiftly closed in, trapping it, and then pulled it back into the water. The sea turned crimson with blood.

"What was that mountain?" Tyler asked, his voice filled with astonishment and fear.

"Quick, let’s get out of here," Lily Gomes urged.

The ship immediately set sail away from the dangerous area.

"That wasn’t a mountain," Lily explained once they were safely away. "Those were the teeth of a creature. The real sea giants. They’re called Sea Titans. It might be the same type that moved that island before."

"Are there many Sea Titans in the North?" Tyler asked, his curiosity tinged with anxiety.

Lily nodded. "Yes, the northern seas are their domain. They are rare, but encountering one can be deadly. They’re ancient and powerful beings, rulers of the deep."

Tyler took a deep breath, the gravity of their journey settling in. "We need to be prepared for anything," he said, determined in his eyes.

Lily nodded in agreement, understanding that their adventure was fraught with dangers beyond their imagination. They had to stay vigilant and ready for whatever the treacherous northern seas would throw their way.

"How do we avoid them?" Tyler asked.

"Why do you have to avoid them? If you are strong enough." She simply replied.

"Don’t worry. It’s just one Sea Titans somehow appeared in the south. It’s a rare occurrence. We will never see another one again."

While they were talking, the water around the ship rose above. The same mountains appeared around the ship.

Tyler looked at Lily dumbfounded.

"As I told you before, it’s rare for us to see another creature. But this one is the same creature." Lily Gomes awkwardly said.

Tyler sighed his luck is getting worse. In this Vast Sea, only his ship got targeted by a lost Sea Titan.

"I got it." Lily suddenly snapped her finger.

"Did you find a way to escape?" Tyler asked, his eyes lit up.

"Nope... I found the reason why the Sea Titan targeted our ship." She said with a proud expression.

"Can You please switch to Detective Mode."
