Despite his cuteness, his eyes remained serious upon staring at the huge holes that greeted them from a distance. There are more than ten holes in total and each of them has size as big as twenty meters in circ.u.mference.

"Water Guardians?" Elric squinted his eyes towards the mysterious holes and could feel a powerful aura from within. Whatever is inside, judging from the giant holes, could only mean that the so-called Water Guardians should be enormous.

"We simply need to get inside that giant circle in the middle and we should be able to reach the kingdom of the Water Elementals. Right now, we are actually in the Outer water zone which is only an entrance just like the Outer Red Land of the Fire Elementals." The little turtle explained in a cute voice. If only not for his older version, Elric could have been fooled by its cuteness a long time ago and kept it as a pet.

"I remember that the entrance to the Fire Elemental's world was much, how do you call this, warmer? Those giant magma rocks did not even move a bit when we entered. Shouldn't we get insides safely as well this time?"

"That's because the Great Seer Mhata has already sent a command to let us in! The current Lord of the Water Elemental is not as friendly as the Great Seer you know. Just to let you know, Lord Aghus doesn't like humans and the fact that you are one only adds to his hostility against you. So it is only normal that you have to get through this small test before you enter his kingdom."

"I see. So I have to pa.s.s this small test huh. But why does he hate me or us, humans, though?" Elric asked.

"Don't ask me like you don't know men. You guys polluted the Earth's water with whatever trash you guys do. Plastics, poisonous chemicals, overfis.h.i.+ng, dynamites and coral bleaching caused by deteriorating ozone layer thanks to your countless factories are just to name a few."

Elric was stupified at this answer. It seems like this turtle yapping atop his head is pretty concerned for the Human realm. After all, the earth is 71% water and humans have pretty much done too much damage in terms of waste pollution alone.

"The Lord Aghus does not like humans not just because of that. He should also know that you are here to get the Authority of water as well and handling such power to a human is never heard of before." Dash added.

With Elric and OMG Dash getting closer to the big holes, a rumbling sound that came from within started to greet them.

GRRRRRRRRRUGGH~~~~

"I don't like this." feeling the huge vibration, Elric knew something big is coming out from those holes. "What do we do now? Is this the only entrance towards the world of the water elementals?"

"I am afraid yes. This is the only way into the kingdom of the Water Elementals. These guardians are just a small test and is meant to keep the outsiders away after all." The turtle warily said.

SIIIIIP~

Out from one of the giant holes came a tiny green Eel. It was as small as the size of a small pen and cutely wobbled its way towards Elric.

Seeing something coming out, Elric prepared himself for a fight only to be greeted by a small and cute looking Eel.

"What's this?" Elric was about to touch the small Eel when he heard a shout beside him,

"Stay back!" Shouted the small turtle.

Suddenly, Elric's instinct kicked full speed and he was able to dodge the bite of the small Eel that transformed into a giant one!

SIIIIP~

SIIIP~

SIIIIIIP~

Swiftly from all directions, other small Eels transformed into giant versions and have surrounded them from every angle! Swiftly, the elongated bodies of these green giant Eels crossed each other creating a giant ball of the net with Elric and the turtle in the center!

"They want to trap us." Elric immediately understood and quickly swam to one of the wide openings.

Reacting to Elric's move, the giant ball of net composed of the Eel's body readjusted and tightened the gaps while their heads stretched to gnaw on Elric!

"Careful!" The turtle shouted as Elric desperately executed his best evasive maneuver in this deep blue sea. Thanks to the black pearl the OMG Dash gave, he was able to dodge the hungry mouths of these giant Eels albeit with close calls.

CHUB~CHUB~CHUB~

The opening and closing of the giant Eel's mouth created a loud chubbing sounds while underwater.

"This is weird, the openings were pretty big but they suddenly tightened and I almost fell to their jaws."

With each time pa.s.sing by, Elric realized that the openings presented by the giant Eels are traps that were trying to lure him. This long green monsters moved swiftly and flexibly in the water with utmost accuracy and timing!

Thank's to Elric's extraordinary fish-man body and a Dragon's stamina, he managed to dodge all of the giant Eel's attack. However, the s.p.a.ce Elric currently occupied is slowly shrinking while the Giant Eels tightened their gaps. With each pa.s.sing seconds, their body is getting closer and their attacks had become even more relentless.

Elric slowly acc.u.mulated some wounds from the sc.r.a.pes but thanks to his Dragonic healing ability, these small wounds closed almost immediately. But time is not on his side and he is in an even more dangerous situation the smaller the ball of the net becomes.

"This is not good. The more the battle lasts, the smaller s.p.a.ce inside becomes. I must make my exit! OMG Dash can you lend me any help?" Elric surveyed his surroundings and true enough, the gaps are now gone and he has to create his exit.

In contrast to Elric's rus.h.i.+ng mood, the turtle in his head remained nonchalant. It acted like it did not hear anything at all and kept humming in peace. With its harder than steel body and transformation ability, it was confident enough to escape from the belly of this giant Eels.

Realizing that the turtle is back to its usual c.o.c.ky side and remembering its traitor att.i.tude before he left the Fire Elementals world, Elric could not help but woefully shake his head in resignation.

With the Eel's attacks getting fiercer, Elric did not have any time to scold an unmindful turtle.

Think Elric, think! How do you get out of this?

Suddenly Elric remembered a scene a long time ago.

It was the time when he caught an Eel from the ocean and his grandmother cooked it for dinner. It was delicious and a warm moment. From this inspiration, a smile crept from Elric's face. He hastily grabbed the humming turtle and threw it towards the Big hole entrance.

"GOOO SHOOOT!"

"Why youuuuuuu--" The Turtle shouted with the unexpected act.

Elric threw him hard while spinning him like a Beyblade! His small body managed to escape through the small gaps and dissapeared to the dark giant hole leaving Elric behind inside the tight death net of the giant Green Eels.

Fire... I wonder If I can use it here. Elric thought of an idea and quickly closed his eyes to focus. A confident smiled also crept in his lips.
