Chapter 56: The Shark Tribe

"Now leave my house or else, things will escalate even further brother..."

Dennar left the house with anger. He walked to his own home and began to take his belongings with him.

'I can't stay here, this tribe is as toxic as it is. Sooner or later those geezers will hire someone to kill me as well..'

After packing his belongings, Dennar began his journey away from home. He had been away from their tribe for a year since he was training with all his might. But as soon as he came back, the only thing left in his vision was the broken and burned village of the rhinoceros tribe.

As years passed the other elders of the tribe began to be greedy. Their father also knew that as well, as such their father had tried his best to protect them from the internal war.

When their father died, that was when Dennar decided to leave the village. It was due to his questions and doubts about their goddess, they have always held the knowledge that those who doubt their god are a sinner.

Their mother and father had tried their best to represent the goddess to them. But as years passed the tribe began to be deprived of the goddess.

They began to doubt, the doubts began to resurface when their father died.

'I don't know what happened to you this past year, but I will be sure to save you brother, and the tribe...'

Dennar glanced at the sky and began to embark on the journey.

'There was a story years ago that our father had told us about. It was the first tribe created by the goddess, I must find them and ask for help...'

Inside Moor's home, a figure landed on the ground.

"It seems like he has left my lord..."

"Hmm, that's better. My brother doesn't have to be part of this war..."

"My lord you could have told your brother, he would have understood your reason..."

"No, if I even show a bit of resistance then they will attack. I must save my brother before it's too late. Jaku you and I are the only ones who know what's currently happening to this tribe..."

...

On a dark swamp, a figure was sitting in his seat. The man was holding a small bird in his grasp.

"Chief!"

"What is it?"

"We have caught a stealing gorilla!"

"Oh, where is it then?"

The figure stood up, and suddenly his long and slit tongue wrapped around the small bird. And immediately the bird entered its mouth without any form of resilience.

The two figures held a small gorilla, the boy had hair on his hands and feet. It had a tail and was shivering looking at the tall figure in front of it.

"Why would a child venture himself into our territory?"

"M-My father is sick! And I have heard that a snake's poison is needed to heal it..."

"Hmmm...So you only came for poison? Child our position is what we use to a fight, do you think I would give something as precious as our position for your dying father?"

"I....I'll pay you back in the future! Us gorillas ever back out from a promise!"

"Hmmmm...."

"What do we do chief?"

"Take the child back to their territory...and here take this and leave now."

"Y-Yes! Thank you so much! Once I grow older I'm going to repay the favor!"

The child held the small potion and bowed his head as he was escorted by the other snakes.

"Hah..."

Meanwhile, the small child had brought the potion to the gorilla healer. Immediately they started making the potion, as soon as the potion was finished. They had fed the potion to the boy's father.

"He will be alright, he just needs more rest."

"Really? Thank you so much, Hah I was so worried for Father..."

"What did I say? I was right, wasn't I? He's very kind and giving when it comes to children Hahaha"

...

"My lord, why did you give that child our precious poison?"

"The child looked desperate.."

"But that isn't a valid excuse my lord, What if the child uses it to craft a dangerous weapon?"

"Even if the child crafts or uses the poison for a weapon, we can't be hurt by the weapon created by our poison beside the gorilla tribe isn't like that. They are beings who value kindness given to them, just watch I'm sure that as days pass they will come here bearing gifts..."

The two snakes looked at one another and nodded their heads in agreement with their lord.

....

Meanwhile, Ono who has woken up found himself in an all-dark place. He could only rely on his hearing senses to detect anything near.

Ono tried to move and used his hands to feel the place he was in, as he kept on moving his hands. Ono touched some sort of huge gills, suddenly there was a sudden light on the corner. Ono ran to the light forgetting the presence he had felt.

As he ran to the nearby light, he found his sea lantern.

"Phew, luckily you also got sucked inside..."

Ono used the sea lantern to light the whole place, he noticed that there were huge fins. Ono redirected the lantern to the top.

"It's....the apostle..."

A vast white shark, asleep. The cave could fit the shark inside perfectly, the shark was even covered by some considerable seagrass.

"I found it...The apostle..."

For him to wake up the Apostle, Ono was given by the chief a particular necklace that emits a sound wave. This sound wave was powerful and could even envelope the whole island, but surely this sound wave was sure to wake up their apostle.

It was the same necklace that the chief had used to help their apostle sleep.

'For it to turn on, I need to imbue magi..'

Channeling his magi into the necklace, the necklace emitted a red glow. Suddenly the pendant left Ono's neck and floated closer to the shark.

[A Beastman is currently awakening one of the apostles!]

[Would the host like to use the game storyline skill on the great white shark apostle?]

[???]

[The system will automatically activate the skill!]

...

Meanwhile, Cedric was inside the store sleeping on the counter. There was hardly any customer, as such Cedric who would always play the game at night decided to use his work time to sleep.

"What is wrong with him?"

The old man narrowed his eyes seeing his asleep worker.

Elias was beside Cedric reading a book.

"He seems tired Grandpa...Just judging on his black eyebags he must have stayed all night..."

"I didn't hire this worker to sleep though!"

"I think you should let him sleep grandpa, he seems really out of it. I tried waking him up a little while ago but he seems out of it..."

"Hah, just what is this young man doing at night? He reminds me of you at some point..."

"Haha..."

Elias opened the textbook.

Losing the rights to even his company made Elias desperate. Unlike his grandpa who raised him with a tough fist, in contrast, Elias grew up weak, and timid.

The very trait he had was the same thing that led him to lose authority in his own company.

'That bastard...How could he just do this? After years of being friends, he just threw it away for company?'

Elias gritted his teeth, he still had many millions left. Instead of staying and hiding, it was time for him to attack! The problem was, that Elias's creativity had dwindled.

Along with the company was his creations, the ideas he had built and made was inside the game, he knew if he recreated those game they would counterattack and even sue him for copyrights.

That's why Elias was busy creating new games, but sadly to no avail. The ideas he had were common or the copyrights belonged to the company.

'I won't back out without a fight! I must win!'

Meanwhile inside the game, Ono was chanting while the necklace floated and started to emit red light. Sound waves were slowly produced.

"Akua malamalama! Akua wahine Lux! E ʻoluʻolu e kōkua i kāu mau keiki, e ʻoluʻolu e hoʻopakele i koʻu ʻohana mai ka luku ʻana! E ʻoluʻolu e hoʻāla i ka ʻelele!"

"Ma ka inoa o koʻu ʻohana, hāʻawi wau i kaʻu mau pule ʻoiaʻiʻo! E ʻoluʻolu, e ka ʻelele ikaika o ke kai, e ala mai kou hiamoe nui. E Meg, ka lunaolelo nui a mana, e hoola mai oe ia makou i ka mea au i koho ai!"

Suddenly the necklace began to emit a more powerful light, and suddenly a huge sound wave burst inside the cave, the sheer pressure pushed back Ono.

Ono used his hands to protect himself, suddenly the huge shark opened its huge eyes.

The shark with its huge teeth and body looked at Ono. The sheer size was enough to give Ono shivers.

The huge eyes of the apostle looked at him, Ono was tiny and was the same height as the huge abyssal eyes.

"M-My Apostle!"
