Otherworldly Loafing Diary

Chapter 12: Deep Sea



Deep Sea.

The crane's body was silent in the deep ocean, at a depth of 5000 meters. It was on a rocky mountain, lying down because it was not conscious at all.

The impact caused by the fall of the crane in the ocean was huge, it created a huge crack. The huge mountain that was once in the ocean was shattered into pieces. All that was left was a large ripple in which Derek was asleep.

Although it looked like Derek had fallen into the ocean without breathing, it was a creature that didn't need to breathe anymore. But breathing with the lungs is different from breathing with gills. During Dereke fainted, its body adapted to the high water pressure.

Derek skin now even harder because it has adapted to this deep ocean during his fainting. In addition to having adapted to the pressure of water, it also made its body adapt to live in the deep ocean. The lungs that were not working before began to work again little by little.

[Unbreathe (Max): An ability that breathing living beings should not have; With your unique skills, you can acquire skills that no one has ever acquired before; Passive skills]

[Skill Underwater breathing (Max) is being integrated with Unbreathe (Max)] [Unbreathe's Skill Grade increases to unique]

[Unbreathe (level 1): A racial ability possessed by a high human, they have organs to breathe but evolve not to use them to maintain their human-like face; Passive Skill]

Derek are in a state of fainting are in a state of rapid evolution to be able to adapt to their environment. Before Derek woke up, something with a tail twisting approached the body of the crane that had fainted.

The place where the crane fainted now was a place with a lack of light, but there was a pair of eyes that shone in the darkness. The approaching silhouette is one with a fish's tail and eyes that glow in the dark.

The silhouette was a mermaid, she approached this direction because she happened to be in this rocky area looking for prey. she heard a loud voice followed by a powerful wave. Usually, she wanted to stay away but this time her curiosity and hunger preceded her fear.

As she swam closer, she saw a human. "How can a human be here" the mermaid was surprised when she saw the human.

"He's still alive," the mermaid checked her heartbeat and felt a tick signify the crane was still alive.

"What should I do, bringing humans into the city is strictly forbidden, without the consent of the elders, these humans might die here"

"Let me bring the elder here instead of me bringing the elder human" After solving her dilemma, the mermaid swam away to bring the elder.

The mermaid swam away towards the mermaid's secret city to the west. The mermaid swam into an area where light could not enter. It swam into depths that few humans had ever entered or even seen.

The mermaid swam into the ravine that was to the west of where the ripples of the crane fell. She went so deep that the mermaid was no longer visible. He continued to swim following his activities towards the house.

It is instinct that can make mermaids pass through the darkness of this deep ocean abyss. If humans dare to swim here, all they get is to get lost without direction. Swimming according to her instincts can prevent the mermaid not to getting lost.

A faint light was visible in the distance. It was the moss and glowing corals that illuminated an area. In that area, many mermaids were swimming busily. Some are busy planting luminous moss. Charlotte enters the Merfolk town through an unbusy back.

In the distance, there is a marble palace with large glowing shells that illuminate many places. This luminous palace is the oldest residence of the tallest merfolk.

The mermaid who found the crane entered this fortress to report what she found.

"Elder Irving, I came to report an extraordinary incident," Said the mermaid while moving her hands excitedly.

Elder Irving was a merman who was four times taller than a normal human. He was now behind the fortress planting moss. Elder Irving's attention was distracted after Charlotte's arrival.

"I found a man in the depths of the ocean, he was surprisingly still alive"

"I checked his heart and it was still beating"

Charlotte explained the facts she got after meeting the human.

"There is no way that human can live, in the depths of this ocean, human without the blessing of the water spirit king, no human can live"

"But elder Irving, I'm sure he's still alive, his heart is still beating and he looks fresher than the fish passing by in this area."

Charlotte then added, "I came back because I thought he needed our help, I poked him, and he didn't wake up."

"In that case, don't tell me Charlotte, you want to bring him here to save him"

"Have you forgotten the rules in our city, without the blessing of the water spirit king, no land creature other than a merfolk can enter. That's the agreement we made with the water spirit king as protection for the land creature itself, he will not survive here," Irving said as he continued to plant the glowing moss.

"If you have nothing else to do, go plant this moss in an area that hasn't gotten the light like the others" Elder Irving drove Charlotte away with a gesture of his hand.

Charlotte, who got Elder Irving's rejection, didn't want to just give up. She felt that humans were very attractive. Charlotte had a deep problem with her. When she is fixated on something, she has a hard time letting go of her attention.

This time Charlotte's mind was fixated on the statement that she saved an interesting human who was still alive in the depths of the ocean that she accidentally encountered.

"I can definitely do something to help him, if I bring him here, we'll both be arrested and thrown out" Charlotte swam away from the fortress looking for a good idea to help the person.

(crash) (crash)

Charlotte bumps into something in front of her "Charlotte, where are you from? Where are the fish, you hunted" Charlotte looked forward to bumping into her friend Asmayah.

"Asmayah... I have important news" Charlotte who had just met Asmyah did not waste this opportunity to explain her findings.

"I found a human being who lives in the depths of this ocean."

"You're lying Charlotte, there's no way humans can't live without the help of the water spirit king."

"I'm not lying, come with me" Charlotte grabbed Asmayah's hand.

Charlotte who had been holding Asmaayah's hand pulled her without her consent, she swam very fast without letting Asmayah think first.
