After seeing the princess kowtow in front of her, Anila helplessly shook her head, thinking "it seems she is proudly ignoring everything the deity said to her."

"I Oachirna Sumaia Athoireayan, protector of the Night Pearl Place, also the daughter of the Night Pearl Dominion Queen, request for esteemed senior's sincerity. Please grant this little one, a chance to serve the senior as a humble disciple and guide me upon the right ways of worldly affairs, and techniques senior used to get within the dominion," quickly turning her serious tone into a playful one, Sumaia gazed at Anila like a puppy, moreover not forgetting to shamelessly specify her interest.

Henceforth slightly speechless with the complete twist of Sumaia persona, Anila stood dumbfounded staring down to Sumaia, instantly to produce a scoffing yet playful giggle. Shortly Sumaia bit through her tongue, preventing herself from laughing with Anila.

Rather tempting even for Anila, since she never had a proper disciple. Although Anila taught Dinna like her disciple, except Dinnas' affinity completely differs from hers.

Now presented with an opportunity, Anila weighed over her options, rear she must say, a girl with a sea G.o.d rune, a precise match for her expertise.

"Little Fish, shameless you are, truly shameless. If you acknowledge me as your master, are you not ignoring the advice from your elder, also how shameless of you, suggesting your master teach you a specific technique."

After listening to the words, ignoring her elder, Sumaia froze from fright, realizing this excellent lady standing before her, could overhear the conversation of a deity without approval. Moreover, Sumaia became proud of her shameless behavior after she realized the beautiful woman's actual strength exceeded her imagination.

"Senior please excuse the rudeness of this young one. The day, she arose from hibernation, she addressed this little one as her elder sister; therefore, I am her senior."

Anila became amused from the shamelessness, "You tricked a deity, who had yet to awaken her memory, into calling your elder sister. These lesser deities that project themselves into our world has their ambitious intent, rather surprised it tolerated you. Next time, surely remember to initiate that rune upon the center of your forehead."

"Master means most wise."

While Anila thought about her situation, she made up her mind. Regardless, she had no intention to tangle anyone into her problem or be tangled into someone else's. Although she didn't wish to disappoint the charming and bubbly eyed of little Sumaia, the alternate path there never was. "I can't accept any disciple momentarily."

Despite the cruel blow, Sumaia maintained her stubborn face; moreover, she gazed at Anila as a helpless puppy while water streamed down her face.

"Little Fish, you should listen to your elders. Although I would accept you as my disciple, though not anyone can learn my skills since you would need a long set of specific requirements. Nonetheless, if you still not convinced and think I am deceiving you, then listen. The minimal requirement of water origin bloodline, water natured Qi, water magic attributes, and preferably a contract with water type spirits."

After considering outright rejecting Sumaia might dishearten Sumaia, Anila listed the long list of requirements. Hence, if she receives the incorrect impression, she would think she is looking for a particular sort of disciple.

"Praise the sea G.o.d for his blessing; this must work of fate since he blessed me with every requirement."

All the mermaid and merman recited after her, "praise the sea G.o.d."

Awestruck, Anila wanted to cry, except she already had an ocean full of salt water to accompany her. "f.u.c.k."

An aged mermaid within the court grew utmost pa.s.sionate since she started a sermon. "The Lord affirmed, never lose thy hope, then great blessings will befall thyself. The Lord has blessed us with kindness, directly after we experienced the horror of that cursed monster. Now, repeat after me, praise the Lord, all glory to the mighty sea lord. Our beautiful, charming and foresighted princess had attracted the blessing of his holiness. May she destroy the evil, and relight the darkened cosmos. Let us all wish her a healthy life, a joyful life, and a prosperous life!"

Paying her no mind, Anila examined tiny lesser water spirits manifesting themselves, escaping from something monstrous, Anila became worried. "Something amiss will befall in the ocean, definitely after that Gray Myite departed."

Anila suppressed her curiosity, even after the whole dominion shook for a while. Sumaia beside her turned towards Anila to inquire, only to notice no sign of her. Water spiraled becoming a twister encompa.s.sing Anila while she faded through the barriers, "did the curse become stronger? Why did the rune destroy ahead of time?"

As the twister ascended it split into two, one vanished instantly, while the other merged with the ocean. Just before she faded, Anila released a piece of crystal, falling towards Sumaia.

A gleaming reflection emerged surfacing her deep blue eyes when the crystal tear dropped pa.s.sed her face, while she casually grabbed it. "Activate all the sound runes, prevent anything from getting too close."

"As you command place protector."

After checking the clear crystalline crystal, she recognized a few strings-like words written by azure water Qi, "Let our paths cross, we will meet quite soon."

Retaining a dry smile, she tended towards the altar unsatisfied, before joining the beautiful oval cut crystal, at the end of the pearl headpiece. While she played with her parted wavy bangs, she gazed down at the silver flame with destructive intent.

"Although I burned a pearl for you earlier, this seems much nicer, do you not agree? Sister?" She watched the flame fade while she stored the three deity stones

After she willingly abandoned the divine protection, Sumaia advanced towards the ma.s.sive place in relief. Once she moved into her room, the rune mark centering her forehead began spreading. First, the water level rose from the ground at the door, then to freeze to seal the door shut. Eventually, the rune radiated with divine power, while she laid down her bed.

Thinking through everything Anila reviled for her, Sumaia realized the sea deity knew the Gray Myite had come after her or even willing invited it. Eventually unimpressed with the low-level sea G.o.d rune, it departed with fury, moreover; the sea deity on the alter deemed her unworthy.

She laughed maniacally, "was she unworthy and was her rune only at a first level, only if they knew." Tightly holding to her head, she tried to remember the person who taught her the method to hide the rune, yet she remembered nothing.

Ma.s.sive amounts of mana rushed into her room while she continued to laugh, "I know not who you are, but once I do wait for me, no try running away from me." The entire room became crystallized, freezing her within the crystal.

After opening the door, Anila her son sitting down and already prepared everything needed to redraw the runes. Her heart became heavy, and she had water within her eyes. She saw her son was shaking from pain, but he did not make a sound. He sat there for her patiently waiting for her.

She replaced the runes on the slightly translucent ruby-colored pendant and bracelet. Rais, who s.h.i.+vered from a constant wave of agony, gazed out the window, with a dry smile on his face.

"Hey, Mom."

"Eh."

With a shaky voice, Rais declared, "Whoever placed the curse on us, I will take apart every piece of iron of their blood."
