Levi had been traveling with Zephyr for a month now. They were on the run, constantly moving to avoid the Divine Holy Court, the organization that had been hunting them down.
Levi had joined them after Zephyr had convinced him that it was the only way to protect himself from those who sought to harm him because of his rare mana.
But the journey was not easy. The base of Zephyr's organization was located in a remote location, and they had not yet arrived there. It was taking longer than they had expected, and Levi was starting to get worried.
As they traveled, they faced many challenges. They had to avoid patrols from the Divine Holy Court, as well as other groups who were hostile towards them. They had to cross mountains and rivers, brave harsh weather conditions, and survive on limited resources.
Despite all of the obstacles, they persevered, and one day, Zephyr suddenly turned to Levi and said, "We have arrived."
Levi was confused when Zephyr said it. They had been traveling for so long, and he didn't see anything that looked like a base or a stronghold. He looked around and only found out that they were on the shore of the sea. The shore was not visited by anyone. It was empty.
Levi asked Zephyr, "Is this it? I don't see any base here."
Zephyr smiled at him and said, "You don't see it yet, but it's here. We have hidden it well, and it is well protected from our enemies."
Levi looked at Zephyr skeptically. "Hidden where? Under the sea?" he asked, his voice laced with disbelief.
Zephyr nodded, his smile growing wider. "Yes, under the sea. Our base is located in an underwater cavern, hidden from prying eyes and protected by powerful magic. It's the perfect place for us to regroup and plan our next move."
Levi's mind was blown. He had never heard of anything like this before. The idea of an underwater base seemed surreal, almost too good to be true. But as he looked at Zephyr, he could see the conviction in his eyes. Zephyr truly believed that their base was the safest place for them to be.
As if sensing Levi's doubt, Zephyr raised his hand and summoned a small orb of water. The water swirled and twisted in the air, forming a miniature model of their base. Levi looked on in amazement as he saw the intricate details of the cavern and the layout of the rooms.
"Wow," Levi breathed. "How did you even find this place?"
Zephyr shrugged. "It's a secret that's been passed down through generations of our organization. We've been keeping it hidden for centuries, waiting for the right time to use it. And now, that time has come."
Levi couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. He had joined Zephyr's organization hoping to make a difference, and now, with the safety of their underwater base, it seemed like they could finally start to fight back against their enemies.
Zephyr then looked at Levi and gestured towards the sea. "Come on, let's go." He raised his hand again and created a giant bubble of water that enveloped both of them. The bubble grew larger and larger until it completely covered them and they were surrounded by water.
Levi was a bit apprehensive at first, unsure of what to expect. But as the bubble descended into the depths of the ocean, he felt a sense of peace and calm wash over him. The water was crystal clear, and he could see fish swimming all around them.
The bubble moved swiftly and smoothly through the water, and soon enough, they reached the entrance to their base. Levi's eyes widened in amazement as he saw the underwater cavern come into view.
The base was carved into the walls of the cavern, and Levi could see the different rooms and passageways that led to various parts of the base.
As they approached the entrance, Zephyr raised his hand again and the bubble split apart, allowing them to swim through the entrance without getting wet. Inside, they were greeted by the sight of their comrades, who were working tirelessly to keep the base running smoothly.
Levi was impressed by the efficiency of the operation. The base was equipped with everything they needed to survive, including food, water, and air. There were even gardens where they grew their own vegetables and herbs.
As they swam further into the base, they were met by one of the members who had a warm smile on his face. "Welcome back, Zephyr. Who do you have here?" he asked, looking at Levi with curiosity.
Zephyr turned to the member and said, "This is Levi. He has the Mana that we have been searching for."
The member's eyes widened in shock. "Are you sure?" he asked, clearly surprised by the revelation.
"Yes, I am sure," Zephyr replied confidently. "I am bringing Levi there to awaken his Mana."
"If it is true, then it will be amazing," the member said, excitement creeping into his voice. "Follow me."
Levi was still confused about what they were talking about, but he could sense that it was important. He followed Zephyr and the member deeper into the base, his curiosity piqued.
As they swam through the corridors, Levi couldn't help but notice the intricate carvings on the walls. They seemed to be symbols of some kind, but he couldn't make out what they meant.
Finally, they arrived at a large chamber that was filled with glowing orbs of different colors. In the center of the chamber, there was an Orb that seemed to radiate powerful energy.
The member turned to Levi and said, "This is where we awaken the Mana. You will need to place your hand on the Orb and focus your energy. The rest will happen on its own."
Levi hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to expect. But he could feel the eyes of Zephyr and the member on him, urging him to go ahead.
