"So you treat my mother like this? The person who gave birth to your child?" Ocean asked loudly.
"I am a god, you are a demigod, my son, and your mother is just a human being." Poseidon said with a normal expression.
"...So?" Ocean spread his hands, a little disbelieving, "You...didn't you care about my mother at all?"
"It's not that I haven't cared about it." Poseidon shook his head, "Because our experiment with life creation on the earth has only succeeded in one case, you, so I did care about whether it was because of the mother's body, but the results after the test showed...
..She is no different from other female humans, so I stopped paying attention to her."
Looking at Poseidon who was explaining to him seriously, Ocean's eyes widened.
Is this God?
Ocean lowered his head.
"...You care about me, right? Father?" he asked, clenching his fists.
"You are the only successful experimental case, so naturally you care." Poseidon smiled, "What do you want, my son?"
"The only thing I want now is to go back to my mother... Is that okay? Father?" Ocean tilted his head, raised his head, and looked at the high Poseidon.
Poseidon looked at Ocean with some strangeness: "Although I promised my concubine to send you back, if you want to live here, I will not stop you. Living in my temple is no better than
Is that little tribe much better?”
"I said it." Ocean emphasized again, "The only thing I want to think about now is to return to my mother's side and live in this temple by yourself."
Poseidon was puzzled. Isn't his gorgeous temple better than Doris's shabby little tribe?
But since it was his son's request, Poseidon still planned to agree.
"I'll take you back." Poseidon commanded the sea currents and looked at his son with some disappointment.
This was the first meeting between father and son in these years, and their relationship was... short-lived, and quite unpleasant.
...
Doris sat on the beach, staring blankly at the sea, with her sister Cora standing next to her.
"Sister..." Cora looked at the dull Doris, a little unbearable.
"He will come back." Cora could only comfort Doris in this way, "Lord Poseidon said he would send him back... I believe Lord Poseidon."
"No, you don't understand, Cora." Doris' face lowered, "That man..."
"Poseidon..."
"The most cruel and vicious creature in the world...there is no one...even if he is a god, I would still describe him like this." Doris's body was trembling.
Cora once witnessed Doris being abducted by Poseidon, and she was able to see the true face of the god more or less clearly, but...
So what can be done?
That is God...
"Don't be sad, sister, Ocean will be back," she comforted.
Before Cora could finish her words, she saw a stream of water rising from the sea.
Ocean stood on the sea and glanced behind himself.
The sea didn't feel as friendly as before, only... deep and indifferent.
No longer caring about Poseidon, Ocean ran towards the island and towards Doris.
"Mom - I'm back!"
"Ocean!" Doris also noticed Ocean on the sea and was so surprised that she couldn't help herself.
Mother and son hugged each other in surprise.
The sea has never been a kind place.
Whether it's the sea itself, what's hidden beneath the surface, or the gods who control the sea.
Cold and mysterious will always be synonymous with it.
As a child of the island, born in the embrace of the sea, I cannot judge luck or misfortune.
All I can say is...you should not have too many expectations about the coldness of the sea.
...
Ocean has returned to his daily life, but he doesn't go to the beach much anymore, and his previous personality has also changed slightly.
Although he is still active, he has less time to play around. Instead of playing around, there is...exercise?
Ocean's growth rate is faster than that of ordinary children. After more diet and exercise, Ocean's growth rate is even faster.
One day, Ocean was in the woods, putting a huge stone on his back and doing push-ups, when a man appeared.
"Oshen." Lu Silan greeted with a smile.
"Hey -" Ocean suddenly stood up, turned the boulder to the side, and landed on the ground. The whole ground trembled a little.
"Brother Lu Silang, why are you here?" He clapped his hands and stood up from the ground.
A year has passed, and Ocean's height has almost caught up with Lu Silan, who has now exceeded two meters.
"Let's take a look at you." Lu Silan hugged his chest and looked at Ocean, who was not much shorter than him. "I heard that you were exercising before. I don't know what happened. Why did you suddenly start exercising at such a high intensity?
Already?"
Ocean gasped, his face twitching slightly, as if he didn't know how to answer Lu Silan.
"Tsk...how should I put it..."
After thinking for a long time, Ocean sighed.
He sat on the big rock he had just carried and asked dully: "Brother Lu Silang, there is no one else here now, only we two know what is said."
"Well, I'll listen to what you want to say." Lu Silan sat next to Ocean and looked at the sturdy young man.
"...What do you think of Poseidon...?" Ocean asked seriously, looking into Lu Silan's eyes.
The smile on Lu Silan's face gradually disappeared.
"...Oshen, that's a god...and also your father." Lu Silan's eyes became a little evasive, "No matter what angle we come from, we shouldn't discuss Poseidon.
grown ups."
Ocean pursed his lips.
He opened his hands, as if he was accumulating something.
The water flow continued to appear from around Ou Shen and condensed in Ou Shen's palm.
Lu Silan was not surprised. Ocean could control the water flow. This was something that the entire tribe knew.
Water flowed in Ocean's palm, and Ocean's eyes... emitted a light similar to Poseidon's.
Buzz——
The water flow - turned into light.
"This is my divine power, Lu Silango." Ocean said, "This is my... divine power as a demigod."
The water turned into light has not lost its characteristics as water and can still flow.
Ocean controlled the water flow and shot it toward a tree in the distance.
Boom - a huge noise came, and the big tree that Ocean and Lu Silan couldn't hold together was directly smashed into pieces.
"How do you think this kind of power... compares to my father?" Ocean looked at Lu Silan.
"...It's too far, Ocean."
"Yes, I think so too." Ocean sighed, "With this level of divine power, how can I... protect my mother from the hands of the Poseidon?"
