After killing the Jade-Toothed Fish, as the feeling of experience points filling his originally stagnant reserves dominated his senses, Sebastian looked ahead with his head raised high as a sense of pride erupted within his heart.
"I am an apex predator!" He declared.
For a distance of kilometers around this territory, a solemn quiet dominated as all the beasts in this region felt the solemn atmosphere of the original overlord of their region’s death.
Trepidation, fear, and all emotions that conveyed reverence were displayed by them as the beasts of this region paid homage to the new boss in town.
The few beasts who were able to spectate the battle from afar would never forget this scene, and some of them happened to also witness it when Sebastian fought and beat the Red tier Turtle to a retreat.
If the previous battle was seen as a fluke before, this battle corrected all the wrong misconceptions, Sebastian was an opponent to be feared.
While keeping his head raised, Sebastian opened his mouth and roared, announcing his dominance to any beast who cared to listen.
ROAR!!!
...
After the last battle, Sebastian was now level 32, he had just taken another big step in his plan to become the Ocean Master in just 2 years so he was happy.
After he won the battle, his senior finally appeared before him.
When Trinidad appeared before Sebastian again, the expression that he had on his predatory face was that of admiration and genuine respect.
"You are my junior, but I cannot help but admire you".
"My decision to obey the will of the elders and take you through the tests has opened my eyes to realities that I never thought were possible".
"Thank you, Sebastian, my pride in my bloodline just increased again".
"Keep on working hard and I believe that one day you’ll take Oceania by storm". After heaping his sincere compliments and admiration of Sebastian for his achievement, Trinidad finally took him back to his kingdom to celebrate.
Another Leviathon finishing all 3 tests was a cause of celebration according to the elders, Sebastian finishing it in such iconic fashion made it more worth celebrating and Trinidad went all out.
They celebrated for 3 days straight and during this period, Sebastian finally received the first distress signals from his troops that were sent out to look for earth domain magicians for the construction of the army’s base.
He didn’t go immediately, but he sent his doppelgangers to go solve the problem. With his current power, his normal doppelgangers were terrors to face in battle for any purple tier predator.
Sebastian discovered that the more powerful he became, the more OP his doppelganger and invisibility unique skill became which left him happy.
During the 3 days of celebration, apart from enjoying himself, Trinidad also gave serious time to strategizing for the mighty coup that he was about to start.
This region of the Dungeon of Souls was called the Nightmare Forest, it was a big territory and the 2 widely recognized strongest predators and overlords of this region were Trinidad, the Meatgrinder Leviathon, and the Big Daddy.
Trinidad first rose to fame in this region of the Dungeon of Souls due to his self-created space domain skill, Meatgrinder.
This was a skill that compressed space into what seemed like a lethal meatgrinder that would continue rolling forward, steamrolling through prey and grinding them into oblivion for minutes until the mana powering it was exhausted.
As for Big Daddy, he was the first and original overlord of the Nightmare Forest before Trinidad slowly rose to fame due to the advantages of his bloodline.
Big Daddy got his nickname due to his astonishing size. A few decades ago, when Trinidad saw him last, this fellow towered at an astonishing 60 meters and was probably still growing in size.
Despite his astonishing size, Big Daddy was a deadly prehistoric predator that was extremely nimble, lightning-fast with a ferocious bite.
Big Daddy is a member of an almost extinct Space Beast race, the Thresher Whales. This was a beast race that evolved from the combination of Thresher Sharks and Killer Whales, forming a horrifying Space Beast race.
The main characteristics and defining factors of Thresher Whales were their astonishing size like actual Whales, their strength like those of Killer Whales, and their speed like those of Thresher sharks.
In essence, this was a Space Beast race that was a wonder of evolution and shed the disadvantages of their 2 mother races, embracing only their advantages.
Thresher Whales didn’t have the mind domain library advantage of the Leviathons, but they more than made up for it with their other advantages.
Once Trinidad became strong enough during his rise, he challenged this overlord predator and this was when the great rivalry started.
2 Space Beast egos clashing would always devolve into fierce battles. For decades, these 2 beasts clashed without rest to determine the real overlord.
These clashes were real and full of danger but it was this stimulation from the rivalry that pushed the both of them to continually exceed their limits.
Now, both of them stood firmly at the pinnacle of the Red tier realm at level 80, only waiting for the right opportunity to evolve into the next tier.
At this moment, they were both the undisputed overlords of the Nightmare Forest but Trinidad’s pride pushed him to do more, he wanted to be the only overlord of this massive territory, this was his greatest ambition.
Knowing the strength of his opponent, this was why Trinidad took his time within these 3 days of celebration to plan properly.
After the celebration, Trinidad gave Sebastian one day to rest from all the exertions before he presented his plan to him that same day.
He explained everything in detail to Sebastian, emphasizing all the important parts to note. In the plan, one part that he emphasized most was how Sebastian should defend properly to avoid being killed.
Big Daddy was such a lethal predator that any slight opening for a fraction of a second could lead to Sebastian’s death, Sebastian needed to be focused throughout the entire battle to avoid being killed.
After making sure that Sebastian understood, Trinidad gave him another day to rest, recover and digest the details in the plan properly.
The morning of the next day, these 2 Leviathons left for enemy territory.
