Ocean Master

The Beast King Empire!

As one of the individual predators who stood at the very peak when it came to direct combat power, the Beast King was renowned throughout Oceania.

As the overlord of the Blue Sea, one of the 7 great seas of Oceania, his beast empire was the absolute overlord of the region. 

Of the 7 great seas, the Blue Sea was widely acknowledged as the most beautiful of them all. Mutated beasts claimed that it was a paradise, while variant humans claimed that it was a perfect merge of the best of their old world where they originated from and the best that Oceania could offer.

Unlike the other seas, the Blue Sea was a lot more stable all due to the presence of the Beast King. His empire was the biggest, strongest, and had the most influence, the Beast King had no rival in his home ground.

Putting aside his sturdy foundation as a predator that took him all the way to the Black tier realm, like every other Sea King, the Beast King was feared mostly because of the tyrannical effects of his unique skill.

Like his title embodied, the Beast King's title was related to beasts. The unique skill was famously called the subordinating unique skill.

Like his title, the Beast King was widely recognized as the rightful Emperor of all mutated beasts. His unique ability gave him the terrifying ability to make any beast that he came into contact with extremely loyal to him.

There were many facets of his unique skill. On a bad day, the Beast King could use his unique skill to directly enslave beasts and make them his subordinates.

On a more casual day, the Beast King could use his unique skill to influence beasts and make them willingly decide to become loyal to his cause.

On a happy day, the Beast King was rumored to be able to mesmerize beasts with his charisma alone. He had the highest charisma among all the Sea Kings.

His most famous usage of his unique skill was when the Beast King succeeded in mesmerizing an equally famous Black tier predator and making the powerful monster become one of his subordinates.

All these meant that the Beast King was really a Beast King. Of all the Sea Kings, and every Black tier predator alive, his Empire was the most massive.

Rumors said that traces of the Beast King Empire could be seen in literally 6 of the 7 great seas, leaving only the Atlantian Domain.

The Beast King was mostly the diplomatic type among the Sea Kings. But when incensed, this Beast King enters battle in a different way to other predators, the Beast King enters battle with a beast army of millions following behind him.

He was never known to fight alone, pursuing individual glory. In his perspective, victory as a collective had more glory and significance than personal victory. 

All this meant that the Beast King was the most unkillable of the Sea Kings. Assassination attempts have been tried on each of the Sea Kings throughout the centuries except the Beast King.

Even the overlord Atlantis recognized a roadblock when they saw one. This monster's empire and effective power were too powerful to contend against.

The saving grace that kept Oceania still relatively stable despite the massive reach and influence of this pinnacle predator was the Beast King's personality.

Unlike warmongering and battle maniacal Sea Kings like the Necromancy King, the Pugilist King, and the Blood King, the Beast King loved a life of harmony which meant that his Empire didn't engage in unprovoked invasion attempts. 

This made the Blue Sea the most stable of the 7 Sea Kings, just behind the Atlantian Domain that was the home ground of the Atlantians.

All these presented the Blue Sea in the best possible light for any mutated beast who was not after blood and glory to settle in.

At this moment, at the very center of the Blue Sea which was the heart of the Beast King Empire, a report was being made to the Beast King.

A few months ago, the Beast King suddenly returned from his deep-depth exploration and locked himself in isolation in his cultivation holy ground.

Originally, sudden cultivation isolations like this were mostly when the Beast King gained an epiphany on improving his origin law comprehension. 

In situations like this, his subordinates were already used to waiting years at least and over a century at most for the Sea King to come out of isolation. 

But this time was different, the Beast King only spent a few months in his isolation before he came out. Surprisingly, despite the short duration, the closest confidants of the Beast King felt a tangible increase in strength.

The close confidants of this Sea King were already close to him and basked in his powerful aura for so long that they knew it to the very details.

When the Beast King came out of his months' long isolation, the fact that he battered all of them with suffocating aura like he could not control it well enough reflected a tyrannical increase in power.

His confidants were shocked and excited. They quickly understood what happened, their Emperor encountered another fortuitous encounter.

At the realm of Sea Kings, it was hard for them to increase in power since they were already extremely close to the peak. Any increase in this realm led to a significant increase in overall effective power.

This was exactly what happened with the Beast King.

After coming out of his isolation, the Beast King swam straight to his Emperor's throne as he was welcomed by his close confidants and subordinates.

The Beast King was a Mammoth Crocodile with the primordial Mammoth bloodline. Even without his unique skill, he was a horrifying opponent to face in battle and he was at the peak of his powers.

After resting on top of his throne, the Beast King looked at his subordinates with red burning eyes that betrayed his current excited emotions.

His subordinates understood this look. This was the look that their Emperor had after every major upgrade and he was enthusiastic to test his current limits against the other pinnacles that were at his realm, the other Sea Kings.

They shuddered in excitement and dread. When the Beast King was like this, there was no stopping him, they were all going to battle.

Even for a relatively calm and harmonious Sea King like the Beast King, there were times when the impulse simply comes and it is impossible to resist.

It took a lot from his subordinates to calm down.

"ANY MAJOR NEWS DURING THE TIME OF MY ISOLATION?"

Unlike fragile, cunning, and tricky Sea Kings like Carcarot Gorgoneon, the Beast King was the real deal. His voice reflected the power that was packed in his body as it boomed like rippling thunder and crackling lightning.

"Yes, Lord Emperor!"

The biggest Mammoth Crocodile in the throne room after the Beast King replied. "A major event transpired in the Green Mist Sea just a month ago".

"The recipient of this major event is a Megalodon who is now rumored to have 2 unique skills in his possession. The prophecy by the oracle predators revealed that he killed Carcarot Gorgoneon".

The Beast King perked up at that. "TELL ME MORE!"

A few minutes later, the Beast King knew all that he needed to know.

"INTERESTING, WHAT AN INTERESTING LITTLE FELLA".

"I'LL LOVE TO PLAY WITH YOU, BUT SADLY, YOU'RE STILL TOO WEAK. I'LL TRY PLAYING WITH YOUR FRIGHTENING LUCK AT LEAST AND SEE WHO HAS MORE LUCK".

"AS FOR THE MEANTIME…" His sharp eyes sparkled. "NECROMANCY, HERE I COME!"

Bzzz!

The Beast King moved, the Beast King disappeared, the Beast King was gone.
