Chapter 20 - Zephyr

After the meeting he had with Olvia and Clover, Seth went for a walk in the city to take gifts for Robin and Kaori who love history. At sunset Seth ate a good couscous with fish with a small slata mechouia. (AN: dishes from my mother country.) After his meal, he walked to the tree of knowledge to chat a little with Clover before getting a room and going to bed.

Seth woke up the next morning to the sound of a rooster. He stood up and wondered where the rooster was from and how he could make such a loud sound so that he could hear it when he was practically at the top of the tree above the clouds. Seth changed and went to Fishman Island because he had finished his tour.

'Okay what do you do now. I'm one of the strongest, if not the strongest, even taking into account the little dragon in his seat. I visited some members of my alliance to see how they are doing. I can visit the old man or the Buddha. 'Seth thought for a few more moments before I got an idea.

'Eureka, I know what to do. I do both and pay a little visit to the joker and maybe to Z. I wonder if lady croc did what I asked her. 'Seth continued his little monologue while going towards an island of the new which is the base where neo-marine trains. The neo-navy base looks like any navy base. Seth landed at the start of the path to the base. He walked on the path and walked towards the door of the base held by two guards. The guards spotted Seth and immediately stood on guard, and one of them left to sound the alarm. Seth smiles when he sees one of the guards leave to warn his superiors.

Seeing Seth getting closer and closer, the guard tensed.

"Stop, this is a secure area. I would therefore ask you to leave otherwise I will be obliged to use force. " declared the guard with a strained voice.

"Hello, I came to speak with the head of neo-marine Zephyr. Ah and also don't stretch, I come in peace. " Seth said, making the Vulcan greeting with a smirk. Hearing Seth's words and watching the strange sign he was making with his hand, the guard looked strangely at Seth and all signs of tension disappeared. The two said no more words and a silence settled until the guard returned with their superiors Zephyr and his right-hand Ain.

"What is the fifth emperor [The Devil of the Seven Seas] doing here at a neo-marine base?" Zephyr asked. Ain positioned himself next to Zephyr and warned against Seth.

"As I said to the guard behind you, I'm coming in peace, I'm here to chat." Seth declared, making the Vulcan salute again. Zephyr did not flinch at Seth's strange salute as Ain frowned at the sign and wondered what he meant.

"And how can we know that, you who is known as [The Devil of the Seven Seas]. How do you want to be taken seriously when you wear such a title. I wonder what kind of atrocities you committed for the World Government to give you that title. " Said an unnamed officer sternly.

Seth lost his cheerful expression on hearing the officer's words and lowered his hand. Seth looked at him and the officer was under enormous pressure which forced him to fall on his knees and put his hands forward so as not to fall on his stomach. The marines draw their weapons and get into position to launch themselves on Seth but Zephyr made a movement of the hand and the marines retreated but did not lower their weapons in case Seth made a suspicious movement.

Seth walked over to the officer fighting the pressure. He stood in front of him and put one knee on the ground before putting his hand under his chin to lift his face.

"You say I did atrocious acts to win this title. You may be right it depends on your definition of atrocious. "

"If for you, kill innocent people, rape, pillage, burn cities, take slaves. Take whatever you like and if the owner disagrees. If for you ruining lives and countries just because you are in a bad mood is excruciating, then congratulations you are like me, we have the same definition of atrocious. "

"But if your definition of atrocious is to kill animals, save lives, protect kingdoms and be a good leader then we don't have the same definition of the word excruciating. And if I may allow your definition of atrocious is really despicable. You should not be in the neo-marine if you have this kind of behavior and thoughts. But I am honored to tell you that you are welcome in the navy. You are welcome to the SLAVES of the World Government. "

"And now that for your information I got the title [The Devil of the Seven Seas] for a reason, I am the devil for GM. But I also have another title everyone seems to know except you. The people of this world call me [The Eternal Angel], only those who are afraid of me call me the [Seven Seas Devil]. "

When Seth last pronounced his title, the officer could really see the devil the GM is afraid of. The earth began to shake before cracking. Cracks, flames came out and rose high in the sky. The flames danced around Seth as if they were greeting their masters. The officer saw the flames of hell. It wasn't the only thing that changed, the night went down slowly and the darkness settled down and hugged Seth like a lover. The sun disappeared and the moon rose but the moon was not normal, the moon was bleeding.

Seth also started to change. Her clothes started to melt. His skin appeared in front of the officer, and he saw dark red skin. Two long horns bent upwards sprouted from his forehead. Two wings with black feathers emerged from its back. The pupils of his eyes turned red and the rest of his eyes black. The sight terrorized the officer, who eventually passed out in fear with foam coming out of his mouth. Seth straightened up and launched the neo-marines officer. Seth's appearance has returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

Ain and the neo-marines took the officer to take him to the infirmary but this asked why he was unconscious. For them nothing happened, only the officer who had the vision of hell.

"Are you having fun making my men Seth pass out?" Zephyr asked.

"A little, but he looked for it by talking about something he doesn't know. I thought that all your men knew the truth of this world but it seems that I was wrong. "Seth replied.

"Most know it, but others who just joined now and will soon find out like the officer you traumatized." said Zephyr with a stern voice.

"I am not at fault, and I did not know that the man had no will." replied Seth.

Zephyr sighed and asked. " So tell me why you came to see me. "

"Nothing, for nothing or almost. See you, now that I remember, I just came to you to tell you that things will soon change and that you will have a chance to have his head in your hands before I take it from him. "

Hearing Zephyr's first sentence, Zephyr showed an expression of anger, but she left as soon as she came to hear the rest of Seth's words. A heavy intention to kill came out of Zephyr before he controlled himself a few moments later. Zephyr let out a rare smile before laughing.

"Well, I've been waiting for this moment for a long time now and know that I still owe you a favor for warning me at the time."

"No problem Z, I did it because it would be a shame if the real navy lost a good element and teacher." said Seth. Zephyr smiled when he saw Seth leaving and told his men to go back to their business.
