Lux sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, facing the Purple Sea of Death.
Right now, he was connected with the Skeleton King, who was walking along the bottom of the sea.
Swimming around him were several monsters that were Rank 5 and below, most of which resembled underwater eels.
There was even a Deimos-Ranked Crab, which was nearly ten meters tall. It hurriedly scurried away when the Skeleton King walked in its direction.
The Skeleton King could sense the presence of other strong monsters that were Dreadnaught Rank and below in his surroundings, but he paid them no mind.
These strong creatures were not interested in the Giant Skeleton King because it was only made up of bones, and there was no flesh for them to eat.
Lux appraised these creatures through his connection with Deus Gigantia and took note of their features.
He had already expected that the Purple Sea of Death was deep, but he didn't know how deep it was.
A thousand meters…
Two thousand meters…
Three thousand meters…
Four Thousand meters…
Five thousand meters…
The Skeleton King then stumbled upon what seemed like a bottomless cliff. He stopped completely in front of it. These cliffs extended sideways, creating a natural barrier that prevented the Skeleton King from moving forward.
Left with no choice, the Giant Skeleton extended his senses downwards to check if there was something in the darkness below.
After several minutes passed, he detected a few things which he relayed to his Master, Lux.
"I knew it," Lux muttered. "Asmodeus, come."
The Lich King appeared beside the Half-Elf and waited for his order.
Lux told Asmodeus about his plan, and the Lich King nodded his head in understanding.
"Very well, I'll see to it that it is done to perfection," Asmodeus commented before teleporting to where the Skeleton King was currently located.
After the Skeleton King had been submerged in the highly acidic sea for a long time, he had confirmed that it had no effect on his Skeletal Body. However, in order to further test this theory, they needed to send one of Lux's Named Creatures, who was also an Undead Monster.
Among them, it was only Asmodeus who had a full body completely made up of bones.
Because of this, Lux felt that it was better if he sent the Lich King, rather than Diablo or Ishtar, who were starting to regain some flesh on their bodies after their evolution, making them look like Humans who had very pale complexions.
When Asmodeus arrived under the sea, he paid close attention to his arms, and legs to see if some of his body parts were melting. After staying there for five minutes, he confirmed that he was unaffected by the acid in the water.
"Well then, time to work," Asmodeus pressed his hands together as he looked down towards the bottom of the cliff that seemed bottomless.
"Skeleton Make… Ship!"
At first, nothing happened. However, a few seconds later, loud rumbling sounds reverberated from below the cliff in front of him.
Bubbles started to rise up to the surface as countless bones emerged from the darkness.
These were the bones of the Sea Creatures that had long died under the sea, and Lux intended to use them to build a ship that would help them cross it.
After several minutes, a ship made up of bones was formed which slowly rose towards the surface.
Lux, who was still connected with the Giant Skeleton King, appraised it in order to see whether or not it was capable of taking them to their destination.

< Ghost Ship Octavius >
Rating: Mythical
A ship that was formed from the bones of the Sea Creatures that had long died in the Purple Sea of Death. Although it is made up of bones, it is as hard as Orichalcum and can withstand the powerful attacks of Dreadnaught-Ranked Monsters and below.
It is unaffected by the highly acidic water of the Purple Sea of Death, making it an ideal ship to sail through this deadly sea that has claimed countless lives.

After seeing the information, Lux nodded his head in satisfaction and commanded Asmodeus and the Giant Skeleton King to return to shore.
Now that they had secured a ship, they could travel to the Pantheon of Exile without any worries.
As for the Sea Monsters and the Wraiths that would stand in their way, Lux wasn't too worried about them.
On the contrary, he was even looking forward to fighting them and experiencing for himself how strong they really were.
Cleo, who was wondering if Lux had given up, was currently standing a few meters behind him with her arms crossed over her chest.
Several minutes later, a frown appeared on her face when she saw something white moving in their direction from the sea.
It was not only the Saintess who saw this but also the people stationed on the ramparts of the Atlas Stronghold.
Their duty was to repel any threat that would be coming from the sea, and they would not allow anything to get past their defenses.contemporary romance
"A ship made up of bones?" the Guard Captain muttered after looking through his telescope. A moment later, he raised his hand and called his Aide. "Report to the Commander that an unknown ship is heading our way!"
"Yes, Sir!" The Aide was about to leave when he heard Lux's voice from below the ramparts.
"There's nothing to worry about," Lux said, making sure to say it loudly so that everyone could hear him. "That ship belongs to me."
As if to assure everyone of his words, the head of the Giant Skeleton King emerged from the waters as he started to walk towards the shore.
Commander Garen, who noticed the commotion on the Ramparts, appeared and narrowed his eyes.
After seeing the Giant Skeleton King, as well as the Bone Ship, he frowned, but he didn't move from his spot.
He had seen many people try to cross the Purple Sea of Death with their own ships, but all of them sank not long after leaving the shore.
"Captain, should we inform His Majesty?" the Guard Captain asked.
"Wait for my orders," Commander Garen replied.
He had contacted King Septimius not long ago and informed him of Lux's arrival at the Atlas Stronghold.
The King of Agartha then ordered Commander Garen to report to him if the Half-Elf managed to find a way to cross the Purple Sea of Death or died in the attempt.
Right now, the Commander didn't know if the ship was strong enough to sail the deadly waters.
A part of him was hoping that it would sink mid-way through their journey, making the Half-Elf regret his decision to go to the Pantheon of Exile.
However, the latter half was quite curious if Lux would be able to reach his destination.
As far as they were concerned, only the Kings of Agartha were able to fly over the Purple Sea of Death, carrying those whom he deemed worthy of exile.
Countless people had tried to cross the sea, but none of them had succeeded.
After being stationed in the Atlas Stronghold for several years, Commander Garen had grown numb to the scenery around him.
Because of this, he was hoping that he would find some kind of entertainment in watching the Half-Elf cross the Purple Sea of Death, and face the monsters that lurked within its depths.
