------------- Some adultery content, this happens during an Orgy Party after all. ------------
( Meanwhile. )
[ Poseidon's Throne Room ]
" Why can't I sense Theseus? " Poseidon asks, he drinks his wine, realizing something is not right.
But despite his worries.
" Lord Poseidon! " the women in the Party call him, asking for his Divine Presence within the party.
" Oh Ladies, come. " Poseidon opens himself as the women come into his arms, his chest, they all have fun as Poseidon releases the water within him to every woman around.
" Lord Poseidon, thanks for your blessing, Lord! " all of them receive the very 'waters' from Poseidon, as he gives them his 'White Water' inside them all.
" Ladies, accept my Gift. "
" Yesss, Lord Poseidon! " they all screamed with Happiness, as Poseidon dealt with them all,.
* One of his Oceanid Servants asks him for his ear. *
" Theseus, what!? " Poseidon raised his voice and startled the women beside him.
He looks at them, realizing all of their surprised faces, after seeing them, he calmly orders them to flee from him as he has to have a private talk with his servant who informs him.
* The two retreat to a more secluded space. *
" So, the 'Shadows' are here? " Poseidon asks the Oceanid servant which she bows before him, to ask his forgiveness.
" Rise your head, my Lower Dear. " Poseidon tells the Oceanid, telling the Low-Born Diviner to not worry one bit.
" They had Young Lord Theseus, Lord Poseidon. "
" What should we do? " the Oceanid asks Poseidon as he rubs his chin.
" This is unexpected... "
" To think that the likes of Theseus will be bound by something someday. "
" I am both surprised and disappointed at the same time, for someone who was born from me to be defeated in such a manner. "
" Pft, guess I was right to choose Tristan, his son, as my favorite instead of him. "
" I can't lose him, for his Gift is so powerful and more advantageous instead of Theseus's double-edged [Water Absorption]. "
" But still..., despite that... " Poseidon thinks for a while and looks at the Oceanid.
" My Lower Dear Oceanid... " Poseidon calls her.
" Would you mind, doing something for me? " Poseidon asks for a moment.
...
( After some time. )
[ Atlantis Shipment Harbour, Deck 4 ]
" Steady dear, steady! " Sireena orders her Division to bring in the < Black Shadow Thorn Lynchpin (?) > inside the opened Barrier, which is in Deck 4 where the *Atlantis Aqua Barrier is the weakest.
As the Gigantic Thorn came in, many Black Shadows were spawned from it, from the very thorn of Shadows itself.
" Oh dear, it seems Atlantis is going to have it full today. "
" After we dealt with the dear 'Ocean Ravager', it's time we take the dear 'Thorn' towards the dear capital. " Sireena smirked, as Garganto was summoned again behind him.
* Garganto politely growls in his respawn. *
" Dear Garganto, your back... "
" I believe dear Dreadbone is also back now you're here...? " Sireena asks as Garganto growly responds to her.
" The dear 'Ocean Ravager'...? " Sireena looks at the webbed Theseus, who was placed near her place.
She approached it, and then...
" Kuahahaha! " Sireena kicks Theseus in his webbed state.
" This is for dear 'Trenchatret'! " Sireena harms him, while Theseus is still bound hard from outside his skin and within, Rachina's glands still affect his inner body mechanism.
"( Water..., I need..., pure unpolluted... water. )" Theseus thinks of it, as he suddenly feels thirsty and dehydrated. Something that never happened after a long time due to his ability.
The [Water Absorption], actually had an interesting feature that enables Theseus to reserve the absorbed water within, preventing him from dehydrating in extreme conditions, but now, as Theseus absorbed Rachina's glands, the very gland liquids' must've interfered with the reservation, making him dehydrating for the first time after so many ages he lived.
"( I can't move... )" Theseus felt weakened, like fish pulled out from the sea, tied tight with a net as the fishermen captured it.
Perhaps, this is why after some time, Poseidon put favors on Theseus' human son, Tristan rather than him, who Ravaged the Ocean in his name, Slayer of the Minotaur, it was not because his human son had more capabilities than him despite his lack of Divine Physical Talents, but it was simply.
"( So this is why, Father... )"
"( This is why you're telling me your 'Double-Edged Sword'...? )" Theseus realized the reason.
"( You often called me a 'Fish', now I understand... )" Theseus thinks of this as he realizes that it was his mistake, as he gets more weakened, Theseus suddenly remembers all that he's been through, all that happened from his very life, his journeys, achievements, and most of all.
* Minotaur roars. *
His battle with the Minotaur, and his reward.
* Theseus absorbs the Minotaur's blood. *
" I told you that no Son of mine will only live in the peasantries of a human life. "
" For they, are all meant for something more... "
" Something more even than the sons I've made before... "
" Fa... ther... " Theseus remembers the very word Poseidon just told him, as he gets weakened, but suddenly.
* Stab *
"( What is- )"
"( Did they stab me? )" Theseus asks himself.
"( No... )" Theseus feels he was injected by something, something that stabs him and is filled with liquid which he could sense from his very Water Absorbing Skin.
"( This liquid, I knew this... )"
"( But where did I... )" Theseus remembers the absorbed Minotaur's Blood back then.
"( No, don't tell me... )"
"( Father, you- )" As Theseus realizes, something boils within him, something that boils his very blood with spirit despite the negative effect he received earlier.
" A dear arrow? " Sireena who was kicking outside saw the arrow that hit Theseus, she was also surprised because she didn't notice when it got there.
Sireena pulled it out, she sniffed it, realizing its very arrow tip was an injection syringe, filled with a liquid that Sireena realized was blood.
" This dear blood, why dear it smells like- "When Sireena sniffs, Garganto realizes there's someone nearby as he extends his very arm and captures the arrow shooter and Oceanid which he grips as he crushes her.
* The Oceanid dies, broken, along with her bow. *
" Grrh... " Theseus begins to move, moving his body slowly as he tries to rise even while his body is still webbed.
" What the dear- " Sireena was surprised as the webbed Theseus slowly stood up, despite his weakened state, he must've awoken something lying dormant within, something that slowly shifted his body.
* Theseus growls and grows, horns begin to appear from his body, breaking the web when appearing and growing. *
" Those dear horns! " Sireena shouts as from within, Theseus grows the
" You gotta be kidding me! " Sieben-Federn sees it from the skies, as he rushes to see what happened, witnessing an unexpected turn of events.
