Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371: Awakening

Unbeknownst to him, for several days now, a glowing blue water, illuminating the darkness, encircled Percival, protecting his corpse from becoming bloated or being eaten.

It stirred; there was something sentient about how this water moved. It was different from the rest, like it had a life.

It could see all the sea folk, the pain they went through before they were mercilessly killed by those orcs. It might have all the power in the world, but it couldn’t act; that capability wasn’t given to her.

Her power lay in bestowing abilities to the sea people, fighting against whatever ravaged the ocean through them.

From her view, the man with the potential to end this slaughter was not only Percival, but he was the only one among that category with a unique heart.

There was this peace around him that created a beautiful atmosphere, like a serene ocean under the sunlight. Calm, inviting, yet mysterious, as he always chose to keep his distance.

People wanted to know more, but he didn’t give them that privilege. It had to observe him all these months, watching him explore the ocean with bliss, like how it first was before royalty, crown, and status became all the sea folk could dream about.

They became greedy, and it became an object to fuel that greed.

On the other hand, Percival was the ocean; his temperament mirrored it. That was the reason King, his summon and the greatest tamer among the records of seafolk history, wanted him to become the new ruler of the endless ocean.

But someone like Percival wasn’t fit for crowns; it would cage his free, warm spirit.

He could have left them to their doom but stayed back, fought, and died.

After several days, it had made up its mind. What would happen once it decided to give itself to him? What would that sacrifice produce? It knew.

But why give such power to a man? Would a man be able to use it correctly?

Percival was the ocean, calm and serene, raging and destructive when infuriated. He... was the right vessel, not a perfect one, but eventually, in a few years, another spirit would be born, and the power of this world would return to the water spirit.

So, even if she failed, there would be a successor. At that moment, the water enveloped Percival, and a soft voice rang.

"Percival... wake up."

She had made sure his soul remained in his body all this while, or whatever she would resurrect would be a reanimated corpse.

The mana system of this world was sacrificing herself, not just to bring him back but to make sure he would bring an end to this threat. His power would be immeasurable.

The true potential of the leviathan, an Absolute born when the first waters came, would be completely unlocked.
