Blink!

After what felt like being knocked out by an uppercut blow from a prime Mike Tyson, Sebastian finally woke up from his slumber in the Domain World.

His eyes took some time to acclimatize to the colors of this environment but once they did, all the memories of what happened finally came back to him.

"Hey, you’re awake". Sebastian suddenly heard a strange voice.

Originally, when just strangely surviving an encounter with a group of deadly silver beasts who were out for his life, Sebastian would have reacted in a more extreme manner on hearing a strange voice but he didn’t.

For some reason, he felt a sense of closeness and openness to the owner of this voice that prevented him from lashing out harshly.

It was like they were connected somehow.

Sebastian opened his eyes fully and looked around, this was when he saw the barely visible silhouettes of 3 predators who were just like him, Leviathons.

[You have activated skill: Mega Pressure Sensing!]

Since his magic was already scrambled which prevented him from using his more exotic sensing skills, Sebastian could only resort back to this one and this was when he was able to see his surroundings carefully.

At this moment, Sebastian was inside what seemed like a crystal cave. The green crystals forming the walls of the cave barely glowed which was why Sebastian had to use his pressure sensing to see everything clearly.

There was a passage that led out of the cave but at this moment was blocked by a boulder that was formed from a cluster of these strange green crystals.

Alongside him in this cave were 3 other Leviathons. From the positions that they were in, Sebastian deduced that they were busy gossiping before.

"Hey". The same Leviathon who spoke previously did again after noticing that Sebastian was finally done with his short little tour.

"Hey..." Sebastian replied as he finally took his time to observe these brothers. By now, he was already sure that they saved his life.

2 of these Leviathons were almost the same size as him and also had the same gray color as him. Only the last one who was the one who spoke was different.

This Leviathon did not just have an odd red skin color, he was smaller than the others and his mouth was bigger than them all.

"Thanks for saving my life". Sebastian finally spoke.

"No problem, it’s the least that we can do considering that we are already stuck in this sh*t together. Don’t mention bro".

"Ok..., so..."

"You are about to ask what those silver beasts are right?"

"...Yeah". Sebastian answered while struggling to keep a straight face.

He could already have this ominous feeling, for some reason, he strongly felt that he just got another Tosh in his hands and he was not prepared for it.

"Well, those silver beasts..."

"Ahem..." One of the other 2 Leviathons gently hit the blabbering Leviathon with his limbs. "Quad, introductions".

"Oh, yeah, sorry, my bad, I almost forgot". The Leviathon hit himself in frustration. "So, what is your name?"

"Umm, Sebastian".

"You are supposed to say, my name is Sebastian, and you?"

"...Ok".

"Say it!"

"..."

"My name is Sebastian and you?"

"Good! Well, like Poker already said, my name is Quad, nice to meet you".

"You too". Sebastian was sure to reply this time least he was roasted by this talkative Leviathon again.

"My name is Poker, and this is the Agas Survival Group".

"My name is Lordrock, it is nice to meet you, Sebastian".

With these 2 slightly normal Leviathons introducing themselves, Sebastian was finally relieved that he was not speaking with total nutjobs.

Before Quad could take over the conversation again which Sebastian already had experience with dealing with Tosh, he rushed to speak first.

"So, what is this Agas Survival Group? I’m sorry, I’m new here, I don’t know a lot of things, I’ll really appreciate it if you guys enlighten me on some things".

"It will be my pleasure..."

"Quad!" Once the biggest of the 3 Leviathons, Poker spoke in an authoritative tone, Quad lowered his head and kept quiet, this spoke a million words to Sebastian.

"Like I guess you may have already known, this is the Domain World of the greatest ancestor of our race, the Ocean King".

"We all came here through different encounters and opportunities, but on coming here, we are exposed to the same fate of the test since all of us who came here are Telekinesis ability users".

"By taking away our magic powers, our ancestor hoped to create the perfect environment of stimulation for us to grow our telekinesis powers".

"The test of the Domain World is to scale the Domain Mountain to the peak. Once anyone gets to its top, the test is done".

"This is where the problem comes, those silver beasts that you saw are called Domain World beasts. They are formed using the power essence left by our ancestor, and they are our greatest obstacles to scaling the mountain to the peak".

"Throughout the history of this Domain World, no Leviathon has been able to complete the test and get the ultimate inheritance of the Ocean King".

"I evolved a year ago and I am now a Red tier predator, I formed the Agas Survival Group to give us a better chance of surviving against the Domain Beasts".

"Like me, other Leviathons already evolved in the history of the Domain World with the 2 most prominent examples being Lord Kronon and Lord Rudock".

"These 2 Leviathons evolved to the Black tier realm and were teleported out of the domain world. This presented another opportunity for us trapped Leviathons to be able to escape this prison".

"It is either we evolve to the Black tier realm or complete the test, these are the only tested and proven ways for us to leave the Domain World".

"There are 2 other Leviathons in the Agas Survival Group, Eder and Lilith".

"You can either decide to join us or ply your trade alone here, the choice is all yours and we won’t hold you at ransom because we saved you".

"Remember, it takes either a great beast or a collective of good beasts to win a war. If you are not great, it is advisable to join the team of good beasts".

After Sebastian listened to everything, he was short of words, he felt like placing his hands on his hips if he could and just sighing.

"You don’t f*cking mean this? You mean I’m stuck here till I finish this test that could not be finished by 2 Black tier predators?!"

"Damn, I’m screwed!"
