Dreams To Return: The God Of The Tower
70. Guiding the King Candidate (7)

"Because I honestly hope you're the one who won the war, not the gods" Mata Novan rounded and as he was about to pose his next question suddenly Fobetor shouted in annoyance.

"That's Hermes?!"

The eyes of the four of them then turned towards the crowd of elves and they vaguely felt the divine energy from there "It's time we return, it can be dangerous if the gods find out you're still alive" after a while Novan said that Morpheus opened a portal back to the Akasa residence.

"Wait to take me with you!"

Fantasos finally showed his true form, now he changed his form into an accessory in the form of a white rose.

"Fantasus?! Thank goodness you're okay"

"The reunion will be at the house, let's leave immediately" Novan scolds them while picking up Fantasos and inscribing something on a piece of magic paper he sent to Nik just before they entered the portal and disappeared.

"Eh?"

Nik stared at the piece of black paper that came with the black butterfly. It is written that Nik is no longer a witch belonging to the Akasa residence and Kaleid is assigned to accompany Nik as a representative of the Akasa family drai. The words written behind the paper were then written.

'We will continue to guide you, all due respect to the new elf king'

- Novan

Nik smiled and then looked towards the clear blue sky "I look forward to your next message, my lord".

Meanwhile, on the shore of Mammon's beach looked at a cute dog playing in the water with anxiety "Heh you get worse when exposed to water" Sentences of ridicule kept coming out of his mouth but that was how Mammon expressed his concern for something. "Here playtime is over and it's time to get back to work"

"Your woof!"

"Hm? whahuh? you want me to give you a new toy? all right, come on later"

"Out of estimation, it turns out you're worse than me" Leviathan's voice rang out from behind. His eyes looked at Mammon with an inexplicable look of flatness and disdain.

"Say you're envious"

"Why do I envy a cat who now keeps a dog?"

"We've agreed not to talk about it!" Mammon protested with a cold look and folded hands on his chest. "You think I don't know you're mimicking Novan's attitude to look cool?"

"It has nothing to do with it!" Leviathan's tone of voice began to rise.

"Then you don't deny this. I'm going to complain about this" Mammon continued to corner the envious demon until the two finally stopped fighting when a serpent-orbed sword fell between them.

"jeez, sorry" Medusa came over with an intimidating smile as if asking the two demons to be quiet. But instead of fear, Mammon asked about the treasure stored in the cave of the Gorgons.

"I heard you have a treasure trove of great wealth, interested in investing?"

The sea waves that carried the cool breeze were so clear at that moment, the three then fell silent and the sounds of the ocean could be heard. Leviathan stepped onto the beach and continued to walk forward followed by Mammon who brought his dog and Medusa who changed his form to half a snake.

The three dive into the ocean, air bubbles forming around Mammon's body while Leviathan and Medusa swim with their dragon's tail into the water. The deeper they dive, the clearer the darkness and coldness of the ocean they can feel.

the underwater palace is so dark woke in the middle of the expanse of the sea floor which is decorated with a variety of living things and coral reefs. There was no light in that place and all the monsters and mermaids hid themselves in the darkness. No pride or passion on the faces of the mermaids was wasted by Poseidon, they assume that there is no hope for them to continue life under the command of a demon.

"Haha it seems that your job will be difficult, man" said Mammon made Leviathan look at Mammon and right at the dog's mouth in Mammon's carrying a glowing pouch looks he bit. The dog then jumped out of the air bubbles and newly formed air bubbles around his body. The little animal approached Leviathan as if asking him to immediately take the glowing package.

"This energy"

Leviathan opened the package and right there a twig and some of the world's trees were glowing. Without saying anything Leviathan swam to the top of the highest tower of the Kingdom and when he found a small altar in the middle of which there was a statue of Poseidon broken he immediately destroyed it and put the fruit containing the seed the world tree into that altar, a golden light as it gushed through the corners and small shoots quickly grew, giving new energy to the northern sea kingdom again shining.

All the creatures hiding in the darkness then came out and gazed towards the tower with a look of admiration. "Listen to the Northern Sea Penghunis! I don't care how you will survive in this darkness, I don't care about your self-worth that should live under me. But know that I am not a god but I can give you the freedom to act!" Leviathan's voice echoed throughout the ocean.

"I don't know what justice and light are! but that doesn't mean I want chaos and suffering, what's wrong if you live in a darkness that can't even hurt you? You are free to seek your own light, even if it means going to land and disguising yourself as a human being.."

"as long as it does not disturb the tranquility of the place I keep, I will let you do anything" Slowly one by one the mermaids came out of their hiding places and swam near the tower. the monsters who were silent started to raise their faces and hope to feel the light.

Those who had always hidden and never felt the light now began to return to hope for the light and freedom that they so longed for, so far Poseidon continued to forbid them to go to land on the grounds of balance, but now their master was not Poseidon but Leviathan, the devil born of the envy of the world and the darkness of the sea itself.

"So get out of your fear and try to show me what kind of light you want!"

He who lives in darkness no longer wants light for himself, his envy and encounters with various people led him to want something bigger and it was his ambition to move on with his life, the ambition to make all those who are immersed in darkness and envy to continue swimming pursues the light.

'I'll ghost you with fear and regret'

'So that if one day you make it out of the sea of darkness and envy of the world, you will regard those difficult moments as a lesson'

The meaning of his words is now conveyed to the corners of the ocean and cheers are heard echoing along with a large shark that crosses the Northern Ocean kingdom before then swimming towards Leviathan and Leviathan touching the shark, make him a new pet and his loyal subordinates.

And so the northern kingdom stood up again and showed its fangs to the mainland.

"Everything is going well sir" Morpheus bowed his body and smiled as he handed over a letter from the northern kingdom and the elven kingdom. The two letters appear to have two royal seals, signifying that it is a letter of cooperation between the two kingdoms. The elves and the mermaids now jointly establish diplomatic relations, in accordance with what Novan has ordered.

"So I have to say you're a genius, half of the international market is within reach of the trade organization that Mr. Mammon and Lady Kinan created, with this it's not impossible to build a new empire" Nikolai seemed to smile happily with the documents of the report sent by Mammon.

"Of course, the two of them are high-level demons.if they cannot master one part of this world alone it's name they do not deserve to be a future king of hell. Now just wait for the time until disaster comes" Novan crossed his hands and stared at the chessboard in front of him.

"I'm sorry but if I may know what disaster you're talking about?" Fobetor's question made all the members in the room stare at Novan.

"it was a monster disaster that would wipe out the kingdom, the fury of the gods"
