Yes—why were there no fish in this sea?
After hearing Caelan’s question, the fisherman froze as well.
If he himself was just a veteran of getting skunked—unable to catch any fish—then the young man beside him was clearly a professional at blast fishing. With an attack covering such a wide area, there was no way he shouldn’t have hit sothing.
Unless... there were no fish in the sea at all!
As this realization struck him, the fisherman’s expression subtly changed.
On the other side, the adventurers who had been enjoying the beach had their faces darken instantly.
Such a wonderful atmosphere—rarely a chance to relax like this—and it had been ruined just like that?
"Hey, are you sick or sothing? If you’ve got nothing better to do, get the hell out!"
"In such a beautiful place, how can you do sothing like this?!"
"..."
The words of these adventurers didn’t affect Caelan in the slightest.
Because at this mont, his mind was working at high speed.
When he had just used [Thousandblade Rend], he hadn’t sensed a single [Sword Aura Mark].
What did that an?
It ant that not only were there no fish in this sea—there were no shells, no crabs, no living beings of any kind whatsoever!
And there was sothing seriously wrong with the attitudes of the adventurers who had entered this place.
Everyone here was a poor adventurer scraping by. Who wasn’t risking their life for money by entering such a dangerous zone?
But now?
How many of them were still thinking about finding valuable materials or powerful monsters?
All of them were indulging in the beauty of this world!
At that thought, a flash of enlightennt rose within Caelan.
If he wasn’t the one who had gone mad, then that ant...
This world was mad!
Caelan was certain he hadn’t lost his mind.
So...
This world was insane!
With that realization, Caelan no longer hesitated. He raised his longsword high with both hands!
"If you don’t show yourself now, then I’ll destroy your nest entirely!"
Massive amounts of energy gathered around the sword in his hands, its radiance surpassing even the sun in the sky!
At that instant,
every adventurer present changed expression.
A faint blood-red hue appeared in their eyes, and the way they looked at Caelan turned full of hatred.
"We just want to relax here—are you insane?"
"Kill him! Kill him!"
"He ruined our enjoynt. Soone like that deserves to die!"
Caelan frowned slightly and activated [Flashstep], vanishing from where he had just been standing.
At the very mont he disappeared, the dagger in the fisherman’s hand slashed through the spot as well!
But all it struck was empty air.
The real Caelan had already appeared dozens of ters away.
So...
The mont everyone stepped into this Unstable Zone, they had already been controlled?
Caelan’s brows knitted tightly, yet his hands didn’t hesitate in the slightest.
As the energy continued to accumulate, he now looked like a war god descending from the heavens!
"Cataclysmic Sword Rain!"
However, just as he activated the skill, a beautiful figure suddenly stepped in front of him.
Seeing the wavy-haired girl before him, Caelan paused slightly.
Her brows were soft as water, her eyes brimming with intense pleading.
"I don’t want to die. Can you not do this?"
"Tell what you want—anything at all. I can satisfy you."
Caelan was montarily stunned, but he did not lower the sword in his hand.
The wavy-haired girl pleaded again.
"I’m just a prisoner trapped here. I only want to live."
"As long as you spare , everything here—including this body of mine—will be yours!"
After saying this, Kairifra suddenly reached behind her back and gave a gentle pull.
A vast surge of holy light burst forth, instantly making it hard for Caelan to open his eyes!
What a massive desk lamp!
But in the very next mont, Caelan did not hesitate at all—he thrust his sword straight toward the sky!
"Cataclysmic Sword Rain!"
A colossal golden sword flash streaked across the sky and vanished in an instant.
Kairifra froze for a mont, then the corners of her lips curled upward into a faint, mocking smile.
"So... this is your skill?"
"Doesn’t look like much."
Caelan smiled calmly, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.
In the next instant, the once tranquil sky seed to be ripped open by golden blades of light!
More and more light swords tore through the heavens, leaving the entire sky riddled with holes in a blink of an eye!
What surprised Caelan, however, was that the sky here was different from the one he knew.
When the light swords ripped through it, he felt a sticky resistance coming from above.
If cutting through space with sword light usually felt like slicing a potato—cleanly in two—
then what he felt now was an indescribable viscosity, like cutting through glue.
"No!!!"
Kairifra let out a piercing scream, her expression instantly twisting into sothing ferocious!
Under the holy light, the once smooth, milk-like skin of her body suddenly erupted with countless bulges of all sizes.
And on each bulge, densely packed eyes grew open!
Disgusting!
Caelan imdiately turned his head aside, then slashed forward with his sword once more.
In the next mont, Kairifra’s body exploded like a punctured balloon—bang!—shattering into countless pieces!
"Bastard! Bastard!"
"My carefully woven beautiful dream—and it had to run into a heartless monster like you!"
In the sky, a pair of enormous eyes suddenly appeared.
At the sa ti, two thick white strands shot toward Caelan, trying to bind him!
[Flashstep] activated instantly.
Caelan’s figure vanished once again.
This ti, however, he didn’t reappear on the beach.
Instead, following the torn sky, he erged beyond the heavens themselves!
When Caelan regained his bearings, he found himself standing on an endless, gigantic spider web.
As countless light swords rained down, the massive web was effortlessly sliced apart.
Hundreds of adventurers were bound tightly within it, completely unable to move.
So...
This was the true appearance of the unstable space.
A trace of realization flashed through Caelan’s eyes.
But in the next mont, his surroundings were flooded with countless densely packed creatures—each as large as a washbasin—[Thousand-Eyed Spiders], surging toward him in a relentless attack.
