I do believe that we just jinxed the difficulty of our mission. I mean, what are the odds that we were able to meet Liv here?“Run run run!” Byron yelled as he pushed me towards the tube that connects this sub to our sub. We were already halfway there when the ship began to shake uncontrollably, making us fall to the ground and skid sideways. When we looked back, the leviathan had the submarine in its mouth and was shaking it uncontrollably with us along with it.“Nathalia, Byron!” Byron and I looked up to see that Skyr was there by the entrance of the tube and threw a rope at us. We grabbed the rope and allowed Skyr to pull us towards him just before Liv managed to tear the ship into two. I gulped as I imagined what would have happened if Skyr had not pulled us away just in time.

 And there it was. I wasn't even surprised about that revelation. Well maybe a little because it was hard to believe since I grew up without a sibling. The only kid I remember growing up with me is Trei and even he was a little bit on the frenemy side.“Twins...twins you say.” Byron was staring at the ground, stunned as he said the words out loud.“This is-” I started to try and speak my mind, but Colt raised a hand to stop me.“If we want to further discuss this topic, we need to go elsewhere. Lord Byron, care to share your secret spot? Like the one in the lake?”“How did you-”“I said that if you want to ask more, we have to go somewhere secure.” The t

 Skyr agreed to give me a time off for myself, considering what transpired yesterday. I was about to be grateful for it if he didn’t mention a make-up exercise regimen. It’s amazing how he can be considerate and strict at the same time. My plan for the entire day was supposed to be spent recuperating. Unfortunately, my supposedly twin decided that it was a day for us to bond. He literally used his high status to override the locks from my pod to come and woke me up from my sleep just to insist on visiting Fifi.Trust me, the demigod was hard to ignore especially when he could control water and threatened to dump it all over my face if I continued to ignore him. I threw the covers away and glared at him after rubbing sleep off of my eyes.It hasn’t been 24 hours since I gained a s

  “I have something to say.” Skyr suddenly said the next day before we started our morning drill. We all stood in attention with me being in one of the front rows - as usual because of my height. “Starting from today, I will no longer handle your training. Instead, it shall be conducted by Commander Duncan.” At the mention of his name, Duncan suddenly walked towards him and faced us.I tried to keep on the emotion of my face in check as I realized what was happening. Everything was transpiring so fast that it seems that we just couldn’t take a break. I almost forgot about the fact that Skyr was going to get a promotion and leave. Now that I was being reminded of it again, it felt like reality dumped a bucket of cold water over my head.I fought the urge to cast my gaze on the floor because it is disrespect

 “What was that? Who screamed?” Byron jumped onto his feet in full alert as screams erupted all around us. I had to grab the back of Byron’s collar just as he was about to run towards the location of the screams. “What are you doing, Nathalia? People are in danger! Let go of my hand.” I sighed. All I want to do right now is to run and hide. We were still at the entrance, lining for our ticket and people were already staring at us. “He’s...roleplaying. He can be such a weeb.” I said and forced him to come closer to me so I can whisper in his ears. “They’re just having fun! It’s called an amusement park for a reason!” I hissed.Byron seemed to realize his mistake and finally calmed down. He looked up at the roller coaster that could be seen from where we were. “So tha
