432 Chapter 431- Mystery of the Forest River

"What's wrong?" Zach asked Asmodeus after noticing she wasn't drinking water from the river and just standing at the bank.

"Nothing."

Asmodeus drank water and stood in the river.

"Be careful. You might slip and get yourself injured."

"The stream's speed is normal."

SIGH!

Zach sat by the river bank and washed his hands and face with the water before drinking.

"Drinking water after being thirsty for a while is the best feeling ever. We should find a way to carry some water with us so we can drink it when we are thirsty. Even a drop is enough."

"How would a drop of water be enough to satisfy the thirst of two people?"

"I can create more water using that drop. I can do it without the drop too, but that water is not suitable to drink. If I have a drop of water, I can extract its characteristics and create more water."

Asmodeus shook her head and said, "I didn't understand a word you said, but okay."

"..." Zach continued drinking water for a while as his thirst wasn't sated.

'Is it because I flew too much?' he wondered. 'In the human world, I didn't use my flying ability that much, and I have never flown constantly for hours.'

Zach was busy drinking water when Asmodeus suddenly called out to him and said:

"Zach, I think there is something wrong with this river."

Zach looked at Asmodeus and asked, "What?"

Asmodeus pointed her finger in the direction where the stream was flowing from and said, "I can't see where the river is coming from."

"Hmm?" Zach couldn't understand what Asmodeus was trying to say, so he got up and walked into the river.

He stood next to her and looked in the direction Asmodeus was looking and pointing her finger at.

"What the…"

There was no starting point of the river. It was starting from the middle of nowhere.

"See?!"

"Calm down. It might be a well or something."

"But water doesn't flow like that from the well and create a river."

"You stay here. I will go check."

Asmodeus grabbed Zach's hand and said, "I will come with you."

"No. It's dangerous, and I don't want to put you in danger."

Zach took slow and cautious steps to the spot where the river was starting from.

'The only explanation I can think of is that it's a well. I mean, it's a common happening and phenomenon that there is water beneath most of the surface of the earth. This is not the earth, but the factors should be similar. The water is leaking from the ground and making a river.'

When he reached the spot, he couldn't see the pressure of the water. It flowed naturally from the ground like a waterfall once the glass was filled.

'If the water is coming out without any pressure or force, how is the river flowing so fast with such force? The path is straight and doesn't seem like a slope or a hill. Well, whatever, we are leaving this place, so who cares. I don't have time to solve a weird forest river mystery.'

Zach turned and said, "I was right. It's a well. Nothing unusual at all."

He was walking towards Asmodeus when he was suddenly hit by a lethal force of the water from behind. He crouched down and grabbed the surface with his hands to hold his ground.

The force was so fast that it flooded the trees and boulders around the river. It was as sharp as a sword and as strong as mountains.

When it ended, Zach looked at the spot Asmodeus was previously standing, but as he had feared, she was nowhere to be seen.

The force came again, this time even stronger than before. But instead of holding his ground, Zach let himself get carried away by the stream.

That was the easiest and the best way to get where Asmodeus was.

After a while, the river ended at the waterfall and tossed Zach into the deep ocean. He tried to swim up, but he was being dragged down by an invisible force. It was almost as though the water was alive.

Moreover, demonic sea creatures were coming toward him. However, the only thing he was worried about was Asmodeus. He was panicking at all.

He glanced around with his blurred vision to look for Asmodeus, but it was hard to see because of the water pressure and the invisible force dragging him down.

"Stop," he uttered. "O water, I command thee to stop."

Zach had the Sea God's Blessing, and he could control water at his will.

The water pressure stopped, and the ocean became silent, but the invisible force was still pulling him down. However, he could now have a clear look in the water.

He glanced around and spotted Asmodeus being dragged away in the possible direction by the same invisible force.

"...!"

Zach tried to swim, but he couldn't move his legs as they were being clenched by the invisible force. However, Zach could control the water, and thus he ordered:

"O water, carry me to her."

The water manifested into stairs and made way for Zach to reach Asmodeus. What's more, is that he didn't have to do anything. The stairs automatically began moving and carried Zach to Asmodeus at full speed.

When Zach was at a close distance from Asmodeus, he noticed that she had passed out.

'No wonder she wasn't reacting to all this. Well, I can't blame her. The water stream's force increased all of a sudden, and it obliterated everything in its way. I am just glad she is in one piece.

Now, I have to get her out of this ocean and save her. I will deal with this ocean creature or spirit later.'

Zach realized that it was the attack of the water spirit, who had targeted Zach and Asmodeus. And he had a firm idea why.

'This water spirit has to be one of the general lords.'
