""So, when are we gonna attack that gigantic beast?"" Asked Herald""No, we are first going to try talking to it. If this is all a misunderstanding then we don"t have to fight for our life nor this kingdom will be destroyed."" Replied Irena
""Are you kidding me?! How is that beast going to understand us?!"" Shouted Herald startled.
""Ela understood us while this beast is stronger than her, it must have some intelligence"" Said Irena.
""Power doesn"t have anything to do if your smart or dumb! This thing will attack us if you get close!"" Countered Herald.
""But if we succeed then it is all a happy ending right?""
Herald bit his lower lip in frustration and worry, indeed beast will gain intelligence when they reach higher realms but the intelligence gain will be different on every beast. 95% of beasts won"t have the brain to speak or think of schemes. They at most will understand what you are saying but thats the limit.
Even if they gain intelligence, their instincts are stronger than their mind so most of them will attack you when you enter their territory or get close to them.
Herald shaked his head and prayed for Irena"s safety. He can"t change her mind, no matter how dangerous the threat is, Irena will do it for her friends, family and the country.
She was always stubborn when she was born, once she decides to do something, she will see it to the end.
""Sigh~ "" He couldn"t do anything in this situation. He knew what Irena expects from him. When the negotiations fails, he needs to command the army to battle the beast. To be honest, he isn"t the best fighter. Although he is in the empyrean immortal realm, he could easily be overpowered by a heaven immortal 9th stage and higher.
He is smart, he was praised because he was smart. His cultivation speed is also amazing but because he didn"t like combat he didn"t learn any fighting techniques only the basics. So even if he followed Irena, he would only be a burden.
So he prayed and watched how this will end.
Will it be all a misunderstanding or a bloodbath?
...
""Hmm?"" Adam watched how the army splits into two making a path for a mermaid with a silver tiara on her head. She had enchanted thin armor on and was at the empyrean immortal realm 7th stage.
"Most likely the queen" Thought Adam.
"It looks like the mermaids are reasonable and at least they try to talk to me" Adam cancelled the ability vision sharing and stepped out of Hydro"s mouth when the queen of mermaids was 100 meters between them.
...
Irena was confused and felt uneasy when she saw that the gigantic beast was opening it"s mouth but she didn"t move.
But after several moments she became dumbfounded to only see a handsome human man coming out of the the mouth of the beast. But she didn"t became scared of it like Aria did.
She had the confidence that she would able to runaway from it, the man infront of her had no cultivation, only aura. No extra Qi Essence around him yet she felt more uncomfortable when around him.
It was as if he knew everything, and his eyes are saying that he is amused as if she was nothing but a toy to him, that she couldn"t do anything to him.
But that was the truth. Ela the beast that they subdued 10 years ago required 80% of the country"s force including her and other peak experts.
Yet now she is facing the master of the beast that even Ela feared of and taking account that the beast was already 20 kilometers away from Ela.
Irena bit her upper lip to stay calm and when she finally calmed down she began to speak.
""I am the queen of the mermaid race, Irena Leonora"" Said Irena calmly as she continued.
""May I know what the intentions are of your holiness?"" Irena didn"t beat around the bush and asked what was on her mind.
Meanwhile Adam was thinking why every mermaid called him holiness. He isn"t a pope or priest.
He then imagined himself with a pope hat and a long white with golden edges robe on himself. Of course he didn"t forgot the cross while imagining.
Nope, it totally didn"t fit him, in fact it was horrible but back to the apparantly mermaid queen"s question why he was here.
He also didn"t like beating around the bush so he said;
""Well, I just wanted to tour around your city then you guys are welcoming me with 3 million soldiers of at least nirvana realm."" Said Adam bluntly that startled and confused the queen of mermaids.
"Touring around the city huh..." Irena was indeed confused but also happy. It was all along a misunderstanding, she sighed out of relief for not having to battle the gigantic beast and the man before her.
""We"re sorry for our impoliteness, please come this way"" She led the master of the beast to their city while sticking her thumbs up towards the city that Herald and the others could see.
The people who saw the gesture immediately loosened their guard and also sighed out of relief.
Herald also had a bright smile on his face. "The biggest crisis is over, so as long n.o.body provokes him, it will be safe" He then issued an order that whoever provokes the man that is now coming to their city will be immediately executed, be it n.o.bles or commoners.
The soldiers who received the orders immediately began to do it as they ranaway to let everyone hear it.
...
It has been 4 hours of touring with the queen as guide, the city that was called atlantisia was quite special but Adam didn"t know how to describe it.
70% of the city was the same as a normal mermaid village while the other 30% was certainly similar. It wasn"t that different except the transport and buildings.
The transport they are using were seahorsed while the buildings are actually just st.u.r.dier corals or minerals.
The palace of the city on the other hand was magnificent, the building materials were rare gem corals, condensed pure water and something else called einzi. Weird name but it was similar to marble.
Conclusion: It was pretty boring and why did he continue? Maybe something amazing would happen but was just false hope.

While Adam and the queen of mermaids with 30 guards continued walking they heard a loud screech outside the cities.
Adam was curious and so he teleported towards where the sound came from while every guard and Irena was totally confused how the man disappeared but Irena regained her senses very quickly.
""Snap out of it! We are going to the sound!"" Irena swam to the sound"s direction after she gave her orders.
...
When Adam arrived he saw a gigantic lobster. But it wasn"t your everyday normal gigantic lobster but one with wings.
""A lobster with wings?"" Adam tilted his head when he saw the rediculous creature. He appraised the name of the lobster to only see it was literally what you see.
[Gigantic Winged Lobster]
Anyway, Adam had a very great idea. It was so good that he even drooled.
""Let"s make a delicious lobster dish!""
