He was able to get out of black sea finding a even ground. He couldn't help but gasp for air because of all that stress,nwhen he saw giant abyssal creatures underwater.

A megalodon getting yoinked by a tentacle monster. Just thinking about that his body shaked like a palm tree under a razing Cyclone. After few minutes when he checked the tentacle abomination wasn't here to devour him. He sighed with relax.

After completely checking with certainty did his mind calmed to stop trembling. Then he decided to explore the area around him.

He looked at the black mass which he had climbed upon was a stone platform. It was flat, covered with grooves, somewhat dry. The structure looked like man-made but in dream realm he can't confirm whether it was made by humans or not.

After she entered the pod, soon she heard the eerie familiar voice giving her chills on her spine making her remember her past nightmare.

[Welcome to the Dream Realm, Cassie.]

After taking a deep breath, she felt a drifting feeling as she found herself standing on plane ground. Chilling wind blew past her making her realise that she wasn't in pod rather inside the realm and was buck naked.

For a moment her face blushed as she thought of Hàorán teasing her but she didn't find his voice nearby making her feel regret now. As Hàorán was the only beacon to her who helped to push her fear making her realise that, she also could grow and help more.

She was alone in the place, as she could only perceive pitch black cuz she lose her eyesight in nightmare. This bought back her past memories reminding her all dark things she faced.

She could only stood still, but suddenly she felt her dark memories being enveloped by a light, a small memory with Hàorán and her new friends was enough to overpower her dark Nightmare.

With a deep breath, she took out her 'memory' wooden staff which she got in her nightmare and started using it as a means to step ahead. But she didn't knew that, she was inside a sealed labyrinth which was now under water. Fortunately Hàorán and Nephis were nearby, while Hàorán was closed to her.

After clearing certain amount of CrabXCentaurs A.K.A Carapace Scorpions, I took a relaxed breath as I deactivated Alcina's Echo. I can't wait to revive her but for now, I focused on the energy which I was continuously gaining by each Interval of second.

I didn't knew that Divine Golden skeleton would have such perk as it could absorb different type of energy. But after certain minutes, I ignored it as if was increasing my control over Soul Essence and looked at how many Blood Fragments did I gain.

[𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 - 196/1000]

Earlier I had only 12 fragments which have now Increased to this amount, I must have killed approx 92 Carapace Scorpions. I should use my [𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞] ability which would clear the area while I search for Cassie, she is near by.

With that I made a shallow cut on my hand and blood started dripping on the ground. After 5 minutes, it had become a puddle, I could already feel anemic because of such blood loss. Damn! I don't have food, I might become a dry cucumber.

I refrained using any Time manipulation ability as it would consume stamina. Meanwhile my Blood Clone was constructed within that time period as it looked completely identical to my body and similar to me, It was naked too.

I handed it my Dagger of Death and gave it a command to start killing the CrabXCentaurs. After getting the command, my clone turned around and went after the retreating Carapace Scorpions to start another massacre.

Well, I should make a Underwear for me. Let see if I can make a Underwear which can blanket my dragon as nothing can bound a dragon when it's raises it's head. For now, I have sea weeds, I can craft them to make myself a makeshift underwear which could at least cover my donger.

After crafting few Underwear and shorts, I get off the ground, while wiping my ass. The shorts also had feature similar to aglets in shoes, pulling it can tighten them up. I took pride in my craft, even with least resources, now I can collaborate with Bear Grylls.

After that, I wore the shorts over the underwear, this handsome bloke must have glossed with lustre under the moonlight. But I was inside some kind of labyrinth which reduced my charms by 0.1%.

Anyways, I should resume my search operation, with my [Destined] attribute, I followed the fate lines connecting me. The golden string of fate was short which was of Cassie. While Nephis's sliver string was near too but she was little farther than Cassie.

Meanwhile, Sunny's pitch black ethereal string was at farthest, he must be 4 km's away from us. I hope he's alright, as he's the only male friend, I got within this world.

Suddenly, I felt tremors within this domain as if the world was shaken. I was dumbfoundedly watching all the toe level water inside the labyrinth moved akin to a living organism.

Soon, the labyrinth area was spotless without any puddles of water as if something faraway had sucked it away. Then I realised, it's kinda similar to tides caused by gravitational pull.

Well it's kinda handy if the next floor was filled with water, I could have drowned. Now I can search Cassie without any problem of becoming anxious because of water filled floors.

After reaching my floor's end, I found the dead end wall which I broke it down. After that, I found myself in another part of labyrinth's floor. Cassie was close, I can reach her by breaking these walls, it wouldn't make a problem later right?

Well, I had to take care of some guests too, this floor also had Carapace Scorpions. I made a short work on them, by just spaming 'accelerate' over my body. They couldn't react to my speed as I easily beheaded every awakened beast on this floor. My Blood Fragments rose from 196 to 482 with my and clone's effort.

After that, I took a short break to recover my breath as running in fast speeds consume a lot of stamina often making me gasp like a sweating pig. Still my hope regained when I found a ero fairy walking buck naked around the floor with her cane. Her presence was smaller, it might be the reason she wasn't hurt or noticed within this floor. Well even, I wouldn't have found her out without my [Destined] attribute.
