Chapter 14 Sedna 1 (1/2)

*Gulg* *Glug* *Glug*

Waiting for the water to come back again.

*Gulg* *Glug* *Glug*

It's the same boring process. After repeating this for who knows how long, it's now an effortless thing to do. In fact, I've been at it for days without feeling the need to sleep. I guess this is a sign of improvement?

In any case, I just needed to absorb a little more of this sea before I could pull off my escape plan. It shouldn't be long now, a few more days at most.

The water was filling back nicely and satisfaction swelled inside of me. The time it took to fully cover the area absorbed was taking longer each time. I wonder if there would be any use for so much seawater now that I've absorbed a significant amount.

”Wait!”

Good creation! What was that? Unlike the bird or the animals around, that voice didn't reach me on a physical level. It penetrated straight to my very existence and invaded my mindscape.

”Stop! Don't absorb the sea anymore, please!”

Apart from the newbie who escaped as soon as he invaded my territory, this was the first time I heard another being speak. Was this another God?

My questions were answered. The being who spoke was indeed a Goddess. However, with my lack of knowledge for such things, I couldn't identify her. For a sheltered being who only lazed around for all its existence, my manners were quite rude.
