Unwritten Mythos

The Legion

In Beiling City's Minami port, as night descended, a fine layer of dust filled the air.

A fishing vessel drifted past, its crew gazing out across the harbor with puzzled expressions.

"I don't recognize the buyer, but they've snagged up all of Minami. Selling our catch might be tricky now."

"Don't grumble. Didn't they pay well?"

"Money's just a temporary fix..."

"Hold on, what's that?"

"Look like a human."

A fisherman lifted a telescope and spied a dark figure hovering in the distance.

"Human... or not?"

"Wait, it's headed this way?"

"How's that possible?"

"It's...!"

"What in the world?"

"That speed... unbelievable!"

The fishermen peered closer, witnessing a bubble of water hurtling towards them with astonishing speed.

"Could it be... a fish?"

"A fish?"

"At that velocity?"

"It's closing in!"

With a loud splash, a dark blue figure burst from the water and leaped onto the deck!

"A human?!"

Chino adjusted his posture and approached the onlookers. Startled, they backed away, some even brandishing fish skewers in defense.

Chino extended his sharp claws and deftly sliced through the skewers!

Bang!

One man tumbled backward onto the deck in fear. "Just a moment..."

Chino turned to another, gripping his temples with both hands before lightly bumping foreheads!

"Aww, Siya Kamogdos."

A strange incantation escaped Chino's lips as he pushed the man aside.

At first disoriented, the man suddenly convulsed, grimacing in agony, "Aaaah... Aaaah!!"

Crack!

Bones shifted unnaturally, and green scales began to spread across his skin!

A sharp fish hook and a curved spine emerged from his body, transforming him into a weakened version of Fish-Man!

Witnessing the transformation, the fishermen's legs trembled as they bowed their heads, pleading for forgiveness.

Ignoring their pleas, Chino moved on to the next target.

He repeated the ritual, pressing both hands to the man's temples before gently knocking foreheads, "Aww, Siya Kamogdos."

"Aaaah!"

Another tremor, another transformation into Fish-Man.

Terrified, some fishermen leaped from the boat and scrambled away.

Chino gestured, commanding, "Bring them back."

Obeying his order, the two newly transformed Deep Ones sprang into action, diving into the water to pursue the fleeing fishermen.

"Now... with two Deep Ones, I deserve a grander title."

"Perhaps... Sea King."

Chino reclined in a chair, legs crossed, calmly awaiting what would come next.
