Have you been in a situation where as a soldier, you've fought bravely for years to protect your beloved country, and your loved ones, but one day, you suddenly discover that your world, country, and loved ones were all fake?

This was exactly how Sebastian felt at the moment.

There were differences between the 2 scenarios, but after all the information that was just dumped at him, he was lost for words to say.

He could hear Eliana's voice going on and on in his head. In his side quest to know the mysteries behind his evolution, never in his wildest dreams did Sebastian guess that he was stuck inside a planetary-wide battlefield.

"Holy sh*t…" This was all Sebastian could say in his head.

A lot of things finally made sense to him, he finally knew why he always felt like he was in a time limit and had to work hard all the time lest he ran out of time.

After the encounter in the ocean volcano, he became exposed to a lot of high-level encounters that left him thinking.

When Carcarot Gorgoneon knew of the Sage in his head, the reaction of the powerful Sea King already gave him a lot of clues. From Eliana's explanation, it was the Sages who made their existence known to these pinnacle predators.

Also, for a long time, he had been trying to guess why the Sage in his head was so restrained. Though the explanation of the Sage sounded feasible, he did not believe it entirely but as a mere host, he could only keep his doubt to himself.

As an existence that was able to make the reincarnation fable a reality and create a system as OP as his that could even manipulate luck, Sebastian found it hard to believe that the Sage was as weak as he portrayed.

Now, with Elian's explanation, everything finally made sense, the Sages were too preoccupied keeping themselves alive from the Ancient Cthulu to spare too much time on him.

The more he thought about all these, the more Sebastian's dread for the Ancient Cthulu grew. "A planetary overlord…, how strong is he?"

Also, after escaping the volcano eruption, he had always felt like a sword of Damocles was hanging above his head because of how the Rabbit Monarch appeared to help him and also disappeared without any explanation.

He was grateful for the help rendered, but Sebastian could not feel safe whenever he thought of a powerful spooky Rabbit observing him from the dark.

With Eliana's reveal, this was also explained. 

The Rabbit Monarch was simply part of his pinnacle supporters that believed in his potential to become the Ocean Master.

This eased the tension in his heart a bit, but Eliana's other reveals didn't.

The sense of foreboding in Eliana's words horrified Sebastian a bit. What did she mean by the Orca Revolution was just the beginning?

He already knew the answer, but he felt too scared to accept it.

"F*ck, am I about to be embroiled in an Oceania world war?"

"Yes". Eliana answered like she could read his mind; this was when Sebastian was drawn back to the reality that he was still hovering before the clownfish.

He looked at her, trying to find what to say but he could not find the right words. In the end, after going through everything that he just learned again, he asked only one question.

"Is the earth really gone?"

It took her some time to answer but she eventually answered. "Yes".

Sebastian felt his whole world crumbling apart.

When he just reincarnated into this world, Sebastian was horrified at first but after recognizing the prospects hidden here, he was happy, hyped up to become the greatest anatomist in Oceania.

Even though he already adapted to this world, Sebastian never forgot about his previous world, some things were simply unforgettable.

To him, earth was his real home, this was why suddenly discovering that his home was already devoured left him feeling lost.

Sebastian clenched his teeth as a lot of things went through his mind. Thinking of the Ancient Cthulu who was the cause of all these, he felt anger growing in his heart as a feeling for revenge sprouted.

But a question came to his mind. "Is the Ancient Cthulu even killable?"

Sebastian could not imagine what he could do against this planetary overlord when even the powerful Myth Realm was pushed to such desperation.

In the end, he felt lost and useless again, Sebastian's huge body seemed to deflate a bit as he felt a lot of strength leaving his body.

Eliana still on her throne watched everything that was going on silently. As someone who knew everything already, she understood how Sebastian felt, she once felt like this.

"What is the title of your system?" She suddenly asked.

"Ocean Domination System" Sebastian answered listlessly.

Eliana repeated the title in her head as a lot of thoughts went through her head. Through the title alone, she already answered some of her questions.

Both of them did not talk again as a long silence stretched.

20 minutes later, Eliana broke the silence.

"You gave up?"

"…" Sebastian turned to face her.

"I can see it in your eyes". She sighed. "After I discovered everything, I was like you, I lost motivation and gave up on my purpose for living".

"But have you thought for 1 second, why were you reincarnated?"

"What is special about you that made you a target for reincarnation?"

"Yes, what is special about me?" Sebastian caught hold of that as this question reverberated in his mind, echoing repeatedly.

Eliana continued like she no longer cared about him.

"To be sincere, apart from being an anatomist which I am also, I don't really know what is special about you. With your system, I believe that some exceptional humans can do all that you did if not even better".

"That's why I see our reincarnation as a privilege rather than a right".

"Of the 7 billion humans on earth, we are the only lucky 2 that survived".

"Yes, we lost a lot of colleagues, a lot of loved ones, but the memories remain in our hearts. In my opinion, this should be our driving force".

"Since transmigrating into Oceania, originally, my perception of everyone around me was beasts, but with time, I started seeing them as closed ones".

"Before, seeing clownfish as closed ones would make people think that I'm crazy, but I'm a clownfish now. I have friends, I have clownfish that care about him, and I love to replicate that care too".

"This is why I will never give up".

"The Ancient Cthulu has already killed a part of my heart which is my home planetary dimension, earth, I will not allow the same to happen here".

"I will do everything in my power to stop him, even if it means death".

"The Orca Revolution that is currently sweeping through 3 Great Seas is just the beginning. I know that to truly protect my loved ones, I need to grow strong enough and tide the 2 years and make sure that the Ocean Master is born".

"I don't know if you have friends that you care for since transmigrating here, but I do and I will do everything in my power to protect them".

"Friends…" This word rang in Sebastian's head.

A light bulb seemed to lit in his head. "I do have friends".

The next moment, vibrant energy remerged in his eyes as he sprang up and swam closer to the clownfish. "Do you know the status of my friends?"

"Friends?"

"Yes, Leroy, Tungsten, Verni, Tosh, all of them?"

Eliana smirked.. "Actually, yes".
