Gods' Impact Online

'I don't know how or why the water spirit is here, but it's our enemy, and I must deal with it before it causes more damage to us. But before that, I need to get Asmo to the shore. She passed out, and I am even feeling out of breath already.'

Zach couldn't breathe under the water while using Sea God's blessing. He gained the ability to breathe underwater from Aquarius— who was the future sea Goddess. It was the blessing of the Sea Goddess.

It was contradictory to use both Sea Gods' and Sea Goddesses' blessings at the same time.

Zach commanded the water to take them outside the water, and the water obeyed Zach's order. However, even after a minute of going up, Zach couldn't see the top of the sea.

The water was carrying Zach and Asmodeus at a very high speed, but they still couldn't get out of the ocean. They had traveled over 10 kilometers in less than a minute, but there was no end to the ocean.

'What's going on? There is no time to waste! If Asmodeus stays inside the water for any longer, she will…'

Zach didn't take a second guess to realize what was happening.

'We are stuck in the water spirit's domain. And just like every domain, you can't escape it unless you cast an even stronger domain from the inside. I can't handle two blessings at once, so using a third one seems like a stupid move.

However, that's what I do. I make careless decisions and somehow find a way to solve the problem. Right now, all I care about is getting Asmo out of… wait, why am I trying to get Asmo out of here?

So she can breathe, but I don't need to go outside. I can make my domain inside the water spirit's domain for Asmo. And there is enough oxygen in the water to breathe. I just have to…'

Zach raised his index finger up straight and placed his middle finger on his thumb while the rest of the fingers stayed still.

"Domain… expansion!"

The second Zachuttered that, all the water around him was pushed, and the water spirit's domain had shattered even though that wasn't part of Zach's plan. After all, he had no idea how strong his domain was and how it was enchanted as he used it when Sea God's blessing was active.

As the water around Zach refused to touch him, Zach reached the bottom of the ocean and landed on the sea bed.

He took a deep breath and let out a loud breath.

"Now, there is no need to go to the shore."

He sighed in relief and turned to Asmodeus, who was still passed out.

"..." He placed her on the ground and her head on his lap. "Asmo."

He called out to her.

"Asmo!" He shook her head to wake her up, but her body stayed lifeless. "No way…"

He placed his ear on her chest to check her heartbeat.

'They are very faint!'

He placed Asmodeus on the ground gently and adequately began to apply pressure on her chest to pump out the possible amount of water that managed to enter her body.

He tried it a few times, but Asmodeus didn't wake up. So without wasting a single second, he pressed his lips on Asmodues' lips and gave her mouth-to-mouth CPR. After that, he once again pressed her chest a few times before giving her mouth-to-mouth CPR again.

When that didn't work, Zach removed Asmodeus' top clothing and pressed his two fingers in the middle of the chest.

"O the ocean water inside her body, leave… immediately."

Slowly, water started coming out of Asmodeus's mouth, and the amount of water that came out surprised Zach. Half of it was the water she had drank from the river, and the rest was the water that entered her body when she was washed with the stream and drowned in the ocean.

The water they drank was poisonous, but it only became like that after entering the body. It had a reaction inside the body and turned into a deadly poison. The water of the river itself wasn't poisonous, but it carried poison inside it that was activated after entering their bodies.

The poison weakened Asmodeus, and she lost her consciousness after getting hit by the stream. If it was a normal demon or an animal, they would have died after a single sip.

Whereas Zach drank so much water, but nothing happened to him, as no poison had any effect on him because of his immunity to toxins.

Zach hoped that Asmodeus would wake up as all the toxins had been taken out of her body, but she didn't wake up, and her heartbeat kept getting fainter, just like her breaths.

Zach pressed her chest three times and closed her nose before giving her mouth-to-mouth CPR.

COUGH~ COUGH!

Asmodeus opened her eyes while coughing into Zach's mouth— until she realized what was happening. She pushed Zach and made some distance between them. That's when she slowly moved her eyes to her chest and saw she was half naked. 

She covered her body with her hands and glared at Zach with teary eyes.

"I trusted you, and you betrayed me. How could a brother…" She automatically stopped when she saw she was surrounded by water from all directions.

"What's going on?" she asked.

"Cover yourself first, please."

"Ah… yes."

Asmodeus fixed her clothes but kept her distance from Zach.

"I know I am probably misunderstanding and jumping to conclusions. But I freaked out, okay. Any girl would think the same if they found themselves half naked in a man's arm while getting kissed," she muttered.

"Don't worry about it. I am used to your comments, and they no longer have any effects on me. And yes, your reaction was justified."

"What's happening? The last thing I remember was us drinking water by the river. And after that… everything is blank."

"Well, you can say it's our lucky day since we are running into the demon lord's goons one after another. This one made me worried as you weren't responding, but everything is good now."

Zach got up and cracked his neck to the sides. Then, he spread his hands and uttered, "Linear Domain!"
