Chapter 933: The War Princess Of The Sea [Part 1]
All across the sea, the war drums of battle were being beaten.
An Army that numbered in the hundreds of thousands swam in formation, heading toward the Kingdom of Saphirus.
And yet, this already huge army was only a small portion of the massive army that belonged to the Ocean Races.
'Soon, I'll be able to embrace you, Illumina,' Prince Baltic thought with a smile, while seated on his throne. 'Fortunately, you and your family are stubborn and didn't want to join the Great Plan. If not for this perfect opportunity, it would've taken longer for you to become mine.'
The Naga Prince then glanced at another flagship in the distance, which belonged to the Mermaid Princess Ariel.
Truth be told, he wanted to possess the two other Mermaid Princesses as well, making all the merfolk of the sea envy him.
However, he knew that this was merely a daydream.
Getting Illumina was already pushing it, so touching the other two was impossible. Even so, a man could still dream of having the three mermaids in his bed as he made them squirm under his body.
As if sensing his gaze, Princess Ariel glanced in his direction. The Mermaid Princess had a faint smile on her beautiful face, but inside her heart, she only felt disdain for the Naga Prince.
Such a lustful man wasn't someone deserving of a Mermaid Princess like her. But since she also hated Illumina, she was more than happy to toss the latter to the Naga Prince, reducing her rival into Prince Baltic's plaything.
The two armies traveled together because their Kingdoms were near each other.
Soon, they would meet up with the armies of the other races, and once they combined their forces, they would number in the millions.
No kingdom would be able to resist such a force, especially when the one backing it was a Colossi.
Those who originally didn't want to join the Great Plan found themselves feeling helpless. All of them knew that the Armies of the Great Plan were going to destroy the Kingdom of Saphirus to make a declaration.
"Either you are with us or against us! There is no middle ground!"
That was the message that the War Council was trying to tell all the neutral parties, and the rest of them had no choice but to lower their heads and reluctantly join the alliance.
A day later, the Armies of Prince Baltic and Princess Ariel saw countless Ocean Races encircling the Kingdom of Saphirus.
"What a grand sight," Prince Baltic muttered in satisfaction.
The armies surrounding the kingdom of Saphirus were spread out like a thick net, leaving no room for escape.
"At least twenty million," Princess Ariel muttered. "Not bad."
When the Naga Army and the Mermaid Army arrived, the encirclement parted to let them pass through.
Prince Baltic's and Princess Ariel's flagships moved forward, joining the rest of the leaders of the War Council, who were only a mile away from the Gates of the Kingdom of Saphirus.
"Took you long enough, Prince Baltic," the Sea Serpent King said with a smile. "We've been waiting for nearly half a day, and it took us quite some effort to hold the urge to end it before you arrive."
Faint chuckles reverberated in the surroundings as the members of the War Council looked at the Naga Prince, who also had a smile on his face.
"I'm sorry for arriving late," Prince Baltic replied. "Where is King Oceanus? We can't start without him."
"His Excellency will be arriving soon," the King of Crabs replied. "Until then, everyone has to wait and not do anything."
Princess Ariel glanced at the ramparts of the City Wall and saw a majestic figure hovering over them.
It was none other than Illumina, wearing her battle regalia.
"At least she stayed and didn't tarnish her reputation as the War Princess of the Sea," Princess Ariel said with disdain. "But that title will change to the Whore of the Sea very soon."
"What whore are you talking about, Princess?" Princess Baltic replied unhappily. "She will not be anyone's whore, but this Prince's wife."
Princess Ariel giggled. "Of course, you're right. But since her future partner is trash, she will be no different from trash as well. Calling her a whore now isn't inappropriate."
Prince Baltic narrowed his eyes. "Are you calling me trash?"
"Oh, dear. Are you deaf?" Princess Ariel asked in disdain. "Didn't you hear me call you trash the first time? Well, I didn't expect anything from you from the start."
The leaders of the Ocean Races all smiled as they watched the bickering of the Naga Prince and the Mermaid Princess.
They were feeling very bored earlier, but with the drama taking place right in front of them, they were quite entertained.
Just as Prince Baltic was about to say something rude to the Mermaid Princess, a powerful pressure rippled over them from behind.
All the members of the War Council turned around to see King Oceanus arrive with his chariot being pulled by two Water Dragons.
"Is everyone here?" King Oceanus asked in an authoritative tone.
«««Yes, Your Excellency!"""
"Good." King Oceanus nodded before glancing in the direction of the city gates. "Have you said your prayers, King Betram and Princess Illumina?"
"Yes." King Betram sneered. "I prayed that you would have a swift journey to the afterlife."
Illumina didn't answer and simply gazed at the Colossi with a fearless gaze.
"Ariel, you may take command," King Oceanus ordered.
"As you command, Your Excellency," Princess Ariel replied with a smile.
The Mermaid Princess then raised her delicate hand and pointed it in the direction of the Kingdom of Saphirus.
"Charge up all magic cannons," Princess Ariel declared. "Aim all Siege Weapons."
The Siege Weapons brought by the various armies had been prepared long ago, and the ones handling them were only waiting for someone to give the order to fire.
The Magic Cannons that were located on the seabed and the Flagships of each race all started
to shine in a brilliant light.
"Fire!" Princess Ariel ordered.
Powerful explosions reverberated in the surroundings as countless projectiles headed toward
the city.
But when these long-range attacks were only dozens of meters away, Illumina made a slashing motion with her hand.
Countless water beams shot out like lasers and intercepted all projectiles, making all of them
explode.
When everything dispersed, not a single projectile landed on the city, and it was all dealt with by the War Princess of the Sea, shocking nearly everyone in the War Council, including Princess Ariel, whose smile had turned stiff.
"This will be my last and final warning to all of you," Illumina said icily. "Those who wish to die, step forward if you dare. I will send all of you to Niflheim and let Lady Hel toss you into
the river of flames."
After hearing his ice-cold ultimatum, the armies that were standing on the ground, took a step back subconsciously because they could tell that the Mermaid Princess was being serious.
It had been a while since a large-scale battle had been waged under the sea, and everyone had already forgotten why Illumina had been hailed as the War Princess of the Sea.
Despite the fact that she wasn't a Colossi, her combat prowess had reached a height that made many believe that she was a Pseudo-Colossi.
She was hailed as a one-woman army, and because of this, she was called the First Legendary Mermaid Princess of the Sea.
