So, another day another quest again. Her partner-in-crime was no other than the person who once was a lich himself—Odin. She had to admit, the change from seeing him everyday as a skeleton to someone with muscles and skins was a huge difference that she still couldn’t quite get over the thought of his appearance. And, of course, it would always be accompanied by a slight blush on her cheeks as well because she would be lying if she said the human Odin was not hot. Here she was, waiting for the hotter version of her master by the Astera docks after she’d picked up a quest for the two of them.

God it felt good to wear normal clothes again. Odin hadn't even realised how much he missed it. Being a Lich meant wearing cloaks, and other scary outfits every single day. But not anymore, now he could actually be comfortable in his attire, and he was feeling it today. Dressed in a grey t-shirt, raspberry hoodie, and a light silver jacket hanging around his shoulders, he felt ready to take on the world.
While not the world, he did have somewhere to be. Another quest with his partner was on the agenda. Odin knew that many of Eternal Nightmare's members were doing well in their accounts, as long as Zane stayed away from them. The reputation of the guild ensured extra payment from those who hired its members, and today would be no different. Whatever Odin and Venus got up to, whether to do with the quest or some other fun, they were going to get paid. And it was Astera so, as Odin reached his partner's location and hopped on the speedboat he had reserved for the day, he assumed it was probably something to do with fish.

This was why she hated water—perhaps, hate would be too much of a strong word, but she definitely didn’t like being in the water because it always ruined her hair and her outfit. Anyhow, without further ado, it was time for them to meet up with their client who was waiting by the end of the docks. A middle-aged fisherman with increasing wrinkles, most likely from the recent stress that he’s been receiving. The man almost gleamed with hope somehow, upon seeing them, as though the two Nightmare members would wash their worries away and hopefully, that was what she was planning on doing so as well. After all, she desperately needed the money.
They were briefed on the details of their mission, in regard to how all the fish had all mysteriously disappeared. According to the townsfolk, it was a creature nearby that seemed to be eating all the town’s source of food away. Whatever the reason was, they needed to figure out the cause. Either the rumors were true, or it could be entirely something else…

The job required them to sail out to the cove and see what was causing the fish to disappear. Whether or not they’d have to go underwater was now a much bigger concern than last time, as Odin now required air in his lungs. And they didn’t have Mildred, or whatever her name was to help them reach the depths of the ocean. They’d have to find their own way through the caves and deep into the ocean. At least, for the moment, they could enjoy the weather and the water.

Luckily, the captain who had briefed them on their mission had provided Odin with a wetsuit and some scuba gear, designed with magic to keep him warm throughout his journey underwater. Obviously there was one for Venus too, but she seemed more than pleased to just sit and enjoy the weather and the views, of which Odin suspected he was one.

The lacrima that brought him air was fitted to his back, with a long tube working its way to the man's mouth. Due to the magic that held it together, it would never run out, as long as the cord was never severed. And realistically, if that happened, Odin had much bigger problems to worry about than the magic.

It took him around an hour, thank goodness for magic existing, and his breath was still almost full. It made him wonder just how long he could survive under here. Perhaps infinitely, as long as he supplied the mana.

One tentacle from the creature, because of course it had tentacles, swung out to catch Odin in his torso. Thank goodness he had reactively formed the Greed armour, which instantly negated the damage, but he felt the drain from his mana. That was not a comfortable hit, and he didn't want to take many more

It didn't take very long, and as he returned he was praised for his efforts and given his reward. Odin thought it best to leave straight away, lest they remove his reward when the discover all the blood and gore in their water supply.
