Ocean Master

Chapter 386 - A New Ambition!



"…"

After knowing the truth, and combining it with all Eliana's rambling, Sebastian felt like vanishing if he could. 

After their outburst of emotions, the atmosphere became so awkward and silent that Sebastian kept on cursing in his mind while Eliana kept on making flowery soul projections in her head.

"I still can't believe it's you!" She exclaimed.

"I still can't believe it's you too!"

"Ugh…" Eliana commanded her throne to turn to face the other direction as she peeked at the massive Megalodon through her soul eye. "Seeing you as a Megalodon feels even weirder than the gruesome state when you died".

"…" Sebastian covered his face.

In the end, they kept on cursing in disbelief for 20 straight minutes before the truth finally settled in and they calmed down.

Eliana's research was right, Sebastian was the real reincarnation target, her reincarnation was probably because she was the first person to see his dead body as his soul was reincarnated.

Back on earth, in the Green Top hospital where Sebastian worked where he earned the nickname of the Crazy Dissector, he was the lead anatomist while Eliana and Dave were the closest to him in authority.

He worked with these 2 for so many years that knowing that one of them followed him to Oceania left Sebastian feeling like starting a dance.

Also, he kept hold of a sentence from her ramblings.

"You actually had a crush on me?"

"Get lost!"

"Well, that proves it". Sebastian laughed out loud. "You guys always called me crazy, especially you, who would have thought, haha".

Eliana glared daggers at Sebastian so much that he finally succumbed.

After taking their time, with Sebastian mostly teasing her, they finally familiarized themselves enough. Now, they went back to another facet of the reincarnation mystery that was just opened before them.

"How come I reincarnated here first if you are indeed Sebastian Foden?"

Sebastian was confused also as he kept on trying to crack this mystery. "Perhaps, it is the same phenomenon that brought the variant humans first".

"Maybe". Eliana shrugged.

In the end, having sobered up to each other, an enthusiastic Sebastian started it first as they started talking about memories that they had together, reminiscing the good old days back on earth.

"I wish Dave reincarnated too, that would have been just perfect". Sebastian lamented once he remembered his reliable buddy.

After enjoying their time reminiscing the past, they finally came back to the present. After everything that he learned today, Sebastian's perception of Oceania already underwent a meteoric change.

He already knew that Oceania was on fire and that he needed to save his loved ones fast before they could become engulfed by this raging fire.

All of his plans needed to be fast-forwarded now to cope with the changing times. Sebastian believed that he was up to the task.

He already lost earth and all the loved ones that he had there, but even if he was going to lose Oceania too, he vowed not to lose the loved ones that he had here which was why it was paramount that he acted fast.

This was why he needed to embrace his destiny. After Eliana's guided words, he was now pretty sure that his destiny was to become the Ocean Master.

It felt ironic. Even as an anatomist in his previous world, he was a fan of Marvel superheroes, his best superhero being the Iron Man and Thor.

He had always dreamt of being like these 2, never in his dreams did he expect this dream to come to pass. And while Iron Man and Thor were mere entertainment shows, his was real which stoked him all the more.

With the fate of all his loved ones on his shoulders, perhaps including the fate of the whole universe from the tyrannical hooves of the Ancient Cthulu, the pressure was strong but the power of family gave Sebastian the motivation that he needed to keep on fighting.

"Hehe, all those that go against my family shall know pain!"

"What?"

"Nothing".

From today, Sebastian got a new ambition. 

Becoming the Ocean Master to him before was just a platform for him to dissect more beasts, but a new ambition was now tied to it which was protecting his family. Only as the Ocean Master could he protect his family.

He no longer saw becoming the Ocean Master as a mere system mission again, becoming the Ocean Master was now his motivation for living!

Now came the part where he needed to leave.

"Eliana, it was nice meeting you but I have to go".

"I know". Eliana already calmed down completely, she no longer fidgeted nor blushed which was evident by her colorful body glowing more.

"What about the ongoing invasion by the Snakes?"

"You'll have to help me destroy the snakes".

"…"

Now, this was embarrassing. "Umm, in case you have forgotten, I am still just a purple tier predator, I can't fight Red tier predators yet".

"I know, that is why I will give you the Orb of Illusion".

Sebastian's eyes shone brightly as he quickly remembered that this was the reason why the snakes attacked the Anemone Domain so aggressively.

Eliana waved her fin and an orb glowing with the colors of the rainbow appeared before her. "This orb is a magic gadget, I created it and infused it with power using my unique skill".

"By infusing your mana into it, you can activate my 2 strongest attacks that I imprinted into it. You can activate it for 3 times in one month before it has to hibernate to recover".

"This is the gift that I prepared for you, now take it, it's yours".

Sebastian felt out of place as he took the orb. "As the boss before, I was the one who distributed gifts, getting to take gifts now feels weird".

Eliana rolled her eyes. "If you know its value, you wouldn't complain".

"Ok, thank you". Sebastian finally said the right sentence before he asked a question. "I get that you're a strong Red tier predator, but how strong is your strongest attack, and your unique skill, what are its abilities?"

This was personal information that predators seldom revealed to others, but Eliana and Sebastian were too close to even consider themselves as strangers.

"My strongest attack can not injure a Black tier predator of course, but it can obliterate that Basilisk in seconds".

Sebastian gulped. "Thank you".

"About my unique skill, the name feels weird, when I first heard that I was rewarded with the Clown unique skill, I thought that I was scammed but with time I knew how fortunate I was".

"The Clown unique skill has only 2 abilities. The first is related to souls, while the other is related to illusions".

"My 2 strongest attacks that I recorded in the Orb of Illusion are from the 2 abilities of my unique skill".

"The first can obliterate the soul of the Basilisk without even touching its body once. While the second can pull any predator that is below the Black tier realm into an illusion that they cannot escape from".

"These are my 2 strongest skills, and they are the only tyrannical ones. I guess my master was a huge prankster even in his prime because everything else that I can do with my unique skill is silly".

"I won't elaborate".

"Ok…" Sebastian nodded again in understanding, feeling that his luck shone again and he hit the jackpot, the Orb of Illusion was his best trump card already.

"So, your 2 unique skills, you care to explain them?"

"Why, of course". Sebastian grinned; it was time for him to flex too.

He did not exclude any information, revealing everything about his 2 unique skills, hoping that Eliana would keep on exclaiming in awe and surprise but to his disappointment, she kept quiet throughout.

"Extremely powerful, as befitting of the main reincarnation target". This was her only comment on his elaborate reveal.

"Once you get the remaining 4 unique skills, I'll give you mine voluntarily". Eliana was nonchalant about it as she said this.

Sebastian didn't react much to her declaration. Knowing that all their lives were on the line, he understood how she felt.

With that, their meeting finally came to a close.

"Goodbye Sebastian, it was nice meeting the crazy you again".

"Goodbye Eliana. The next time we meet, perhaps you will have your dream fulfilled and may get to kiss your crush".

"Get lost!"

Sebastian was booted out of the zone of glory.
