Sera's POV

I looked at Spade sleeping soundly on the table. I smiled and then slowly caressed his hair.

"Meow."

I stopped touching his hair and patted his head, signaling him to go back to sleep. He followed my command and slowly laid his head down. I looked at Vin and Eulisis, leisurely talking with each other. Me, Raine, and Cindy have our own table and chair. Rei, Mel, Gemi and Dreyar were together. Vin and Eulisis were on the same table.

"My my, are they on a relationship?" Cindy asked Raine with a perverted face.

"I don't know." Raine replied and slowly shrugged. I laughed silently and looked outside. I saw the trees disappeared as I saw a mountain. I smiled, looking at the scenery.

"Please put your seatbelts within 4 minutes. We'll be reaching an ocean that is 8967 feet deep. The engine will change as we dive our way through the 35 feet line. Speed will increase in every 5 seconds." I heard the system say as I felt the pressure pushing my back on a wall that appeared behind us. Seat belts emerged from the wall and clinged in our bodies, automatically locking it.

"Everyone, a oxygen producer will appear as soon as we plunge our car in the water. Be careful not to break it." Mel informed us in a soft voice.

"10 seconds left before initiation." The system spoke again.

Suddenly, a metal object emerged from the middle of our desk, making us breathe properly.

I heard a splash sound and our car was extremely fast. I saw the wheels turned into thrusters and the walls was overlapped by thicker ones. An extension acting as our balancer, quickly erupted from the wall. The seat belts we had on suddenly returned back in the wall as it goes down.

The car went transparent but we only saw a dark area. I looked up but only a tiny ray of light was visible in my eyes.

"Activating Lightsticks." I saw Gemi and Dreyar typing something on the keyboard. Dreyar was grinning while Gemi kept his neutral face.

After a few seconds, they sat down and then one by one, small, yellow lights started glowing. Our surroundings lit up, letting us see the small fishes around us. I saw different species that wasn't familiar to me. I looked under us and saw a school of sharks.

"Raine, Cindy, Look." I pointed at the group and they looked at that direction. They were staring at it and smiled.

"They don't look dangerous." Raine said while tapping the glass like wall. I looked behind us and called Rei.

"Psssst."

He looked at me and gave me a 'what' look.

'How long are we gonna stay underwater?' I asked politely.

'2 days.'

'What? Where are we gonna get clothes our fo-'

'We have a cabinet assigned for us to replenish our needs.' He pointed at the cabinet near him.

Oh I see. Thank you.'

I stopped talking to him in our brains and stood up. I went to our tiny room enough to occupy us. I went to my bed and looked up, only seeing the yellow lights that were scattered.

"Here guys, if you're bored, we can take a little stroll underwater." I heard Mel said something causing me to be curious. I jumped off my bed and walked out, only seeing Mel.

"Where is everyone?" I asked while walking beside him.

"Oh, wait, I will send you to them." He said and typed something on the holographic keyboard. After a few seconds, a lever appeared and he looked at me with a 'are-you-ready?' face. I slowly nodded with my left eyebrow raised. He pulled the lever and within a second, I was already in a tiny submarine? I looked around and it seems like this would only fit one person.

I saw Mel's holographic face appear on a piece of coin and explained how to operate this vehicle.

----time skip----

I was sent back inside our car. I sighed as I stepped my foot on the cold piece of metal.

I headed back to our room and quickly went to my bed which was on top. When I finished climbing the ladder, I immediately lied down.

"That trip was scary." I said while throwing my shoe away. I hugged the blankets and looked at the transparent wall. What we did was go check the Nens that lived underwater. I forgot the name. They told us why some of the hunters can make their eyed glow. They are under control of the Huntresa which are called necromancers. I don't really know them but they sound dangerous. The Nens underwater are really funny though but they have weird pets like sea monsters...

-___- I know. Weird.

I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Sera, wake up!" I heard a voice and a force constantly shaking me. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Raine was floating. She wore a red dress that was surrounded by fire particles. Like me, Phythos particles are like our energy released so we don't lose our control.

I sat and yawned, rubbing my eyes. Raine stopped floating and went out of the room. Our walls are still transparent though. I jumped down but blue ancient letters emerged and covered my feet. The force that was supposed to be strong suddenly turned gentle, causing my feet to slowly land on the floor.

I shrugged and walked out. I saw everyone was eating so I sat down on a chair. I looked around and noticed that Ashgar was missing.

"If you're looking for Ashgar, he was summoned by the council so he left." Dreyar said while eating a piece of meat. I mouthed an 'oh' and then a plate appeared infront of me filled with meat and rice. I started eating as I watched the time left before we reach the shore.

1 hour and 36 minutes.

I finished eating and the plate disappeared out of sight. I stood up and went to the sofa and looked up. I can already see a lot of the sun's rays. I smiled as I knew that we're near the shore. I looked down and the sea creatures seems to be gone. Mel sat on the opposite side. I smiled and struck a conversation.

"What happened to the Infinity Library?" I asked. He looked at me with a shocked face but it quickly changed back to normal.

"It was still okay, but the hole you blasted off was gone." He replied in a serious tone.

"Oh. I see." I stopped talking when I noticed the ray of light above us dimmed. The car shook and in an instant, the transparent walls turned back to it's original form and red lights were surrounding the room. I hastily stood up and went to the control room, seeing Raine,Gemi, and Rei typing something. I walked closer to them as the vibration gets stronger everytime I step on car floor.

"What's happening?" Mel asked.

"The pressure is getting stronger. Something big must have passed through causing the water to stir up. The cold temperature divided into two and we are trapped between it." Gemi replied.

"So what will happen if we don't do something?" I heard Vin's voice so I looked behind, seeing Cindy and Eulisis with him.

"This car might divide into two." Rei said. I started to be alert and looked around. I was about to say something when the car swiftly turned, causing us to be thrown on the wall. My back was hit on the cold barrier, causing me to groan in pain. After a second, we fell down on the floor. I stood up but another turn was inflicted, making everyone fall again. This time, the blaring lights became blinding. I can barely see anything but thanks to my ability, I can still see normally.

"We are going too fast!" Mel said while pointing on the duration time of the trip. It was on 1 hour and 23 minutes but after a millisecond, one minute would be taken from the time. So the 23 minutes is quickly decreasing.

"We need to move to the very back of the car and use our remaining strength to push this thing downwards to reduce the strength." Rei said while blocking some of the flying objects towards him.

"Is there a threat or something bad will happen if we do it?" Eulisis asked.

"Yes. But it won't happen if Sera and Raine will stay infront. Sera is strong and Raine can control her power into pure force." Vin explained and quickly signalled them to go.

I looked at Raine and we nodded together. We ran out and quickly headed for the front. Everytime the car shakes, an object flies towards us but we managed to dogde them. Some of them were damaged, some were caught by me. As soon as we stepped in, we saw two chairs, one for the passenger and one for the driver. If you want to drive car manually. I noticed that the vehicle started to become unelevated so we decided to start our job. I pushed the car floor with my palm as soft as I can but the vehicle still moved upward. Raine followed by placing her palm beside mine and after a few seconds, a very strong thud caused us to fall out of balance and everything blacked out.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up as the sun's rays hit my face, heating it up. I sat down and looked at everyone walking around.

"Where are we?" I asked.

"Lost." Rei said in response to my question. I sighed and stood up. Everyone was complete, which is good. The car was already on the bottom of the sea though. Vin, Gemi, and Dreyar saved us since the thud made holes on the vehicle causing it to slowly sink down.

"Man... I'm starving. I could eat fat Cindy but that would be cannibalism." Dreyar said. Cindy then turned to him and glared at him.

.-. Eat Cindy huh. Good thing my thoughts were innocent.

"Well you will die if you eat me since my body hates bacteria like you." Cindy sticked her tongue out with a matching 'Loser' sign.

They were about to fight when Cindy suddenly spoke.

"Wait, I know a certain village is here though." Cindy said.

"Huh? How sure are you?" Mel asked.

"Hm? Don't you know this place?" She replied.

"Not really."

"Okay Cindy lead the way." Vin said. Cindy started walking. I was beside Eulisis and Raine while the Boys were the ones infront of us.

"You both feeling okay?" I asked them to liven up the situation.

"Yup." They both said in unison.

As expected. They don't talk much do they? Well, I understand since our situation right now was unexpected. A few seconds later, we arrived at a city. Good. Another City huh. Great! What next?

@-@ I'm too tired!

A girl went out of the gate. She looked like a typical school girl though. I approached her but to my surprise, she pointed a blue spear near my face.

"Sino kayo?" She shouted.

What?

"Uhm, excuse me but we don't understand you miss." Mel said.

"Wag nyo kong inglish-inglishin dyan ha! Dumudugo na ang ilong ko!" She shouted at us.

"WHAT." Dreyar said while scratching the back of his head.

"Uhm guys, let me handle this." Cindy stood infront and struck a conversation...?

"Heya girl! Kamusta ka na???" Cindy said with a high pitched voice.

"Uy Cindy! HAHAHAHAHA matagal na tayong hinde nagkita ah! HAHAHA" The girl laughed loudly.

@-@ what language are they using?

"Papasukin mo na kame pls. Hinde naman kami nangangagat~ Diba vip naman aku dito?" Cindy said.

"Sige na nga, tutal hnde naman sila mukhang masama. Mga englishero lang naman. Sige pasok na kayo." She said.

I feel like they were talking about us.

As the gate opened, we stepped in and looked at a big sign.

'Welcome! The city of Saleria embraces you!'

Oh oka-

Wait.

Saleria?

SO WE WERE IN SALERIA ALL ALONG?!
