Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

As Noah was adapting to the Trident of the Sea, he turned towards the miniaturized Kraken and said,

"I actually have a treasure that will give us some more time to prepare before we head out for Atlantis, as well as a way to get us to the city whenever we wish."

The Kraken put on a surprise expression as it replied.

"Oh, you actually have more that I haven't seen, little Atlantean?"

Noah smiled while he removed the Spiritual Land from his body and anchored it onto the top of the hill where many treasures lay in the underground cave.

"It is an isolated space treasure that I came upon when I was traveling. It holds all sorts of marvels, but I have yet to fully figure all of them out. I'll bring you in now, don't resist."

There was a flash of light passing through the red eyes of the Kraken as a silver light covered both his body and Noah's, and they both disappeared from the underground treasure cave and into the Spiritual Land.

They appeared in the skies of the Frozen Plateau Spiritual Land as a weird image played out where a two-meter tall squid was floating in the air with no problems. It looked around the respondent lights and the fields of white. The many cries of beasts that could be heard in the distance, as well as the powerful auras that could be felt around the Spiritual Land.

Before the beast could continue observing the spiritual land any further, Noah's voice came out once again.

"I also wanted to introduce to you one of my trump cards against invaders that are heading for Atlantis. Don't be too surprised or act irrationally when you meet them."

Noah was planning many things in his mind, and for the success of the battle to come, he would make sure there were no uncertainties and all the usable pieces were known beforehand. But his voice didn't even finish registering before the red figure of Barbatos appeared in the skies.

"Wow wow, little fish. Did you bring yet another meal for you to cook and enjoy?"

The playfulness was apparent in Barbatos's tone as she looked interestingly at the Kraken and licked her lips.

Instantly, a maddeningly powerful pressure descended onto the spiritual land as the Kraken looked carefully towards the newly appeared figure and then turned towards Noah.

"You have a wench with a similar scent as the invaders in your so-called isolated space treasure. You better explain yourself, and it will have to be very quick. Otherwise, I'll be killing the next successor of the Trident of the Sea just a few minutes after he inherits it."

Noah remained with a calm expression as he looked between the Kraken and Barbatos as their auras clashed against one another, their power palpitating.

The mocking voice of Barbatos came out first.

"Oh, this little squid is actually talking about me. Does it really think it has what it takes to stand on the same level as me?"

Noah didn't let any more exchange of words continue as he voiced out,

"Yes, I was able to come to an agreement with this invader as a tool for us to take down the Leaders of Demons that are leading the charge against Atlantis. She had important information and skill sets that will go a long way for the coming battle. I have her under an unbreakable contract, which means I also have her under control."

He said these words towards the Kraken while he sent another set of words towards Barbatos.

"Be good. If you do well enough then I'll make you more food today. Otherwise, I'm never going to cook for you again."

A shocked face appeared on Barbatos as this silent communication reached her ears. Her playful face soon changed to that of pouting as she seemed to struggle in her mind. Her face turned serious right after and she nodded her head. She looked towards the Kraken as she bowed and said with an impassive face.

"Nice to meet you, dear squid. I am the seventh ruler of the Demon World, the Necromancer of Chaos. The one kept under the rule of Baal for hundreds of years, the one that is seeking freedom and going to the great lengths of betrayal to obtain it. A wretch, perfidious, and a rotten woman. I am Barbatos."

A shining light passed through the Kraken's eyes as its power searched through Barbatos's words and then turned to look at Noah with an unusual expression. A period of silence passed as the oppressive pressure was lifted and the squeaky voice of the Kraken rang out.

"I don't give a damn as long as those aiming their sword at Atlantis dies. It matters not to me how it is done or who is involved in their downfall, all I need to do is accomplish my mission of making sure you worthless Children of the Sea that apparently have enough time to be forming relations with invaders do not die wretched deaths."

He turned to Noah as he continued.

"Now, you mentioned you had something that would give us more time and an instant path towards Atlantis, what exactly were you talking about?"

Noah smiled at the de-escalating of the situation as a silver light spread out, covering the three of them as they all disappeared and then appeared in the middle of the large field surrounded by many many monoliths.

"This is one of the most unique things I've come across in this isolated space treasure. There is this location that actually allows me to manipulate time to a certain extent. I can train with the trident as well as boost any of my powers here, and during this time you can tell us more about your purpose and what you planned for the defense of Atlantis before we head out."

Noah looked at the faces of the two beings that were looking around the field of Time Space as he thought of his own ambitions. He continued to voice out his thoughts as he observed the figures of two peak PHANTASMAL ranked beings.

"We can understand each other's strengths and share the knowledge we have about the enemies so we are prepared for the coming battle. We have a singular goal beside the defense of Atlantis, and that is the complete and utter downfall of the one calling himself the Oppressive Tyrant, the Ruler of the Demon World, Baal."

A nod came from the head of the Kraken as it observed the surroundings with interest, while Barbatos was floating in the skies with a bored expression as she looked far in the distance towards the white layer that covered this underground portion of the isolated space treasure, her mind on the comfortable jacuzzi in the upper layer that she regretted leaving.

The squeaky voice of the Kraken came out as three PHANTASMAL ranked individuals held a meeting that would decide the fate of Atlantis.

"First off are the other Calamities of the Sea beside me that will be making their way to that shiny city of yours..."

Movements, meetings, and plans were underway as multiple forces prepared to clash against each other. Neither side had yet to know just how catastrophic the result of everything would be.
