Chapter 268 - Chapter 271: Already Hooked On That Old Man At The Door

Dozale's glowing blue body floated up from beneath the sea surface.

It still stared at Guldon in front of it, furious.

The earlier attack had not really injured its thick, tough body.

However, it just could not accept it.

Why does that fire playing idiot in front of it get help?

So it was extremely angry.

Woo!

'If you've got guts, fight me one on one!'

Guldon naturally did not care about Dozale's provocation. Water and fire cannot exist together. The angrier Dozale became, the happier it was.

Even the lava flowing across its body shone a little brighter, as if the temperature had risen.

At the same time, Viktor was also observing Dozale.

To be precise, he was looking at its terrifying health bar.

Under Guldon's attack that was enough to destroy an entire city,

Dozale's health bar had only dropped by three percent.

However, this was normal.

After all, Dozale was not like Doragon, that kind of Calamity that was useless except for speed.

This was above the ocean. It was Dozale's home ground.

The sea was constantly replenishing its strength.

On its own field, it had confidence to face two opponents without falling behind.

So Dozale might very well be the hardest boss Viktor had encountered so far.

But Viktor was not in a hurry.

Likewise, he had not yet used his trump card.

Woo!

Dozale's massive body slightly raised above the sea surface, and a deep whale cry rang out like a giant bell shaking the heavens.

The heavy whale call pushed away the surrounding waves completely, forming subtle ripples that trembled across the wide sea.

As if responding to some kind of summon, the distant dark clouds began to churn and gather rapidly.

The thin clouds were pulled at a visible speed, fiercely gathering above Dozale's head.

Thick darkness quickly swallowed the entire sky. Beneath the rolling clouds, sunlight seemed unable to break through anymore.

Both the clouds and the waves became violently turbulent, the huge splashes they stirred up seeming as if they were about to touch each other.

On the sea surface, the white mist also seemed to be controlled. Thick vapor swirled and settled around, once again covering the entire ocean.

Seeing this, Guldon refused to show weakness.

It raised its head and let out a deafening roar, flames bursting and burning around it like a storm.

Under layers of thick mist, it was like a giant hazy lighthouse gradually becoming clear.

Scorching heat waves quickly spread outward, forcefully pushing away the surrounding white fog.

Lava surged up once again from the seabed, breaking through the ocean. The fiery red glow seemed determined to burn away all the white mist.

Boiling sea waves kept spreading from around Guldon, and even the sun in the sky seemed to grow more blazing.

As if struggling to squeeze through the thick clouds, fully displaying its light beneath the gloom.

The wildly gathering sunlight became unusually heavy. The thick clouds were torn open with a thin crack, and a ray of sunlight slipped in.

Evenly matched.

Viktor looked at the two giant beasts that refused to give in to each other, constantly changing the surrounding environment, and slowly said, "Go on."

"We still have plenty of time."

———

The shocking battle between Guldon and Dozale caused extremely astonishing environmental effects.

The surrounding weather fell into massive chaos because of it.

Take Braeston for example.

At this moment, the sky seemed to have lost stability.

Within just a few minutes, the originally clear blue sky would suddenly be covered by thick dark clouds, followed by heavy rain.

Before long, the sky would clear up again, and unbearable heat would once more fill the air above everyone's heads.

Countless citizens looked up at the sky, their eyes full of amazement at Braeston's current celestial changes.

The weather became unpredictable. Many residents complained again and again, yet felt powerless.

"What kind of damn weather is this?"

"One moment it's sunny, the next it's raining. There's no pattern at all."

"What does the Meteorological Bureau say?"

Everyone looked confused. Under such unpredictable weather, the Braeston Meteorological Bureau had given no prior notice.

Could it be that they were also completely clueless?

At the same time, inside a towering building, the dim interior was lit only by scattered candlelight.

A large group of mages gathered around a huge magic sphere in the center of the room.

They continuously injected magic into the sphere, constantly monitoring the cloud changes above Braeston.

"In one minute, Braeston will experience heavy rain again, and the temperature will drop sharply."

"In three minutes, it will completely clear up, and the temperature will gradually rise. Before the next heavy rain arrives, the entire Braeston will become extremely stuffy."

The mages' voices rose and fell one after another, but there was a trace of helplessness and worry on every face.

The entire hall was filled with scrolls and papers recording various weather data. The robed mages hurried back and forth inside the room.

Most of those working at the Meteorological Bureau were mages.

Because they could directly observe weather through changes in the elements.

But Braeston's current weather situation was so bizarre that even these mages who monitored the weather every day found it unbelievable.

This change originating from the Padalun Sea was like a temperamental giant beast, calm at times, violent at others.

Energy rapidly gathered near the sea region. Clear skies and dark clouds collided quickly, constantly shifting.

It felt like a sign of nature's coming fury.

Facing this chaotic energy, worry showed in the mages' eyes.

"This… this needs to be reported to the Royal Capital, right?"

Someone had already sensed the seriousness of the situation and cautiously asked the others.

At that moment, a capable looking woman slowly entered the dim room, her expression serious and her steps hurried.

"Director."

Seeing the woman approach, the mages all appeared respectful.

The woman walked to the huge magic sphere, looking at the three dimensional image displayed above it, and frowned.

"What is the current situation?"

The mages immediately began reporting in an orderly manner.

Braeston's sudden weather changes were clearly affected by powerful energy from afar, and the source of that energy was the sea area of Padalun.

Such strong energy gathering could very likely trigger disasters such as tsunamis, typhoons, or waterspouts.

But strangely, that flood like energy seemed to be fixed in place by some force and could not be released.

At least for now, that was very good news.

The Director listened to the reports and slowly nodded.

"We need more manpower at the moment."

The chaotic weather was already causing huge impacts on the city. The alternating cold and heat made it impossible for residents to work normally.

Fishermen who went out to sea and merchants engaged in trade were also helpless. No one in Braeston could even step outside their homes.

The entire city had grown so quiet that this towering metropolis was nearly at a standstill. If this continued, the economic losses would be impossible to estimate.

Although they had already notified the Clavenna family, it was clear that the other side did not have a good solution either.

At that moment, a mage rushed into the Meteorological Bureau and reported to the Director, "There's good news, Director. Someone is already handling the abnormal situation in the Padalun Sea. It's Councilor Clavenna."

The surrounding mages were instantly overjoyed upon hearing the news, smiles appearing on their faces.

Even the anxious Director relaxed, her tightly furrowed brows easing.

The Councilor's power was extraordinary. And the one controlling the sea region was Braeston's own man, Councilor Clavenna.

That was Viktor.

This news had come from the Royal Capital.

It was a confirmed message from Viktor's younger sister, Liya, the public head of the Clavenna family.

Although no one knew where she had obtained the information, it was still encouraging.

The Director looked at the constantly changing weather readings and said, "With Councilor Clavenna's help, our burden can be reduced somewhat."

"Gather the manpower first. Have the mages prepare the magic formations. We need to stabilize Braeston's weather as a priority."

Just as she was speaking, another mage stumbled in once again.

"Director Norma, there's new information."

Norma turned her head and looked at the hurried subordinate, quickly asking, "What is it? Tell me immediately."

The mage took a breath and stammered, "At Braeston Harbor, there's a… um... an… an aquatic demi human swimming in the water?"

His voice was full of uncertainty.

"She says she can help us change the weather."

Norma was puzzled. 'What kind of person would dare speak with such confidence?'

Seeing the Director's brows slowly tighten, the subordinate quickly handed her something in his hand.

"She said… she told me to show this to you."

Norma took it. It was a badge.

On the badge were three shattered human heads. It was very recognizable.

Norma's eyes widened. She immediately understood the meaning of that emblem.

Almost in disbelief, she cried out, "Councilor?"

———

At the chaotic Braeston Harbor area, the demi humans were orderly guiding the surrounding sailors and fishermen away from the shoreline.

Leon wore a communicator on her ear, receiving real time messages from Miss Liya in the Royal Capital.

At the same time, Leon's gaze turned toward the harbor, the place closest to the sea.

She looked over there, and in her eyes, there seemed to be a bit of helplessness.

"Yes… right, Miss Liya."

"That person from last time, she's come to see Mr. Hailnason again…"

At this moment, Hailnason sat cross legged by the shore with his arms crossed, his breathing steady and heavy, staring intently at the girl in front of him.

The girl had red hair and a beautiful face, half leaning against the shore.

However, the lower half of her body floating in the water was truly hard to ignore.

It was a huge and beautiful fish tail, shining with brilliant red.

The scales on it sparkled like rubies, wide and bright.

She leaned against the shore, one hand very dishonestly touching Hailnason's muscular arm.

Her eyes shimmered, constantly throwing flirtatious glances at Hailnason.

"Mr. Bearman~ just tell me."

"Do you have a partner or not?"
