At the bottom of the deep ocean that only five percent of it has been explored there sits Mr. Cylopes
stared at the little humans inside his jar, that he usually crowds them in like pickles before he briefly chooses upon how shall be his first meal.
Humans' meat is now delicacy nowadays and it's hard to get them.
As he sat on his square rock as he gazed at the people in the jar he had raised like livestock for days, Fed them till there plump and juicy he tried to make them reproduce but they refuse to cooperate.
He could only sigh in frustration as he looked up at the island floating above his head. He decided to play a little game. Taking a thin slice of wood big as his palm from his pocket as he rose out of the water.
And tried to make it float above the surface of the water.
But after every attempt, he failed, again and again, it's like a relentless endeavor that cannot be overcome by anyone unless they put their mind to it unfortunately he wasn't thinking straight today must drink a little too much of the firewater his nana*¹ gave him earlier as a birthday gift.
Lilian looked at these as she smacked her head against the clear glass in frustration, she just realized they are being held captive by an idiot, Gustav and Lilian survived along with their other crewmate. . .
They're mute so they don't know much about him but they know that his name is Ivan and he's the person who crafted there a beautiful boat that they no longer have.
Gustav patted Ivan on the shoulder, Ivan looked up at the Swedish man wearing his dirty ruined battered shirt, before taking the fruit that was handed to him he threw it away from his being.
What's the point in eating what the enemy gives you, it could be poisoned.
Lilian sighed before saying in a grim and harsh tone, 「Listen here you pretty boy, eat this damn apple, or I'll shove it down your throat. If you don't eat you'll starve to death.」She said as she yanked him by his long locks of silky brown hair.
As she raised her tanned hand to slap him straight in the face. Before Gustav pulled her off Ivan before things got out of hand.
「Stop being a bitch four eyes 」Gustav said as he scoffed as he continued to say, 「You what that creature is doing? When he beings our glass cage up to the surface to give us fresh air while he drains the water like usual, it'll give us enough time to swim and escape to the island, He looks intoxicated right now, And not in the right state of mind.」
Gustav was able to figure out the cyclops usual schedule, every day before dawn he would-- take the jar to the surface to empty it.
Or to take out a human to eat. He found out that the monster doesn't cook underwater the water wouldn't let the fire grow or spread and there the first time that happens Lilian got traumatized and fears that every time the jar is brought to the surface she'll be the person chosen to cease to exist.

Back on the res or red island, someone fought for their life as a rake²* mauled the person's leg in anger. The person underneath it screamed in pain and anguish as he looked at the three who gazed at this in silence.
「Please. . . help me! I'm begging you!--」This person pleaded desperately for their lives. But they are too late for saving. The person did not notice the creature's claws resting on its thin neck. And the creature looked them dead in the eye.
If they go any further and try to interfere this person's head will be cut cleanly from their body.
