Atlantis!

The most powerful of the five great ocean kingdoms, without question.

Compared to the other kingdoms, Atlantis had inherited not only the imperial royal bloodline but also most of its technological achievements. The former gave it hope of reunifying the empire, while the latter ensured that it remained the strongest oceanic power even after the empire's fragmentation.

Thanks to their advanced civilization and powerful technology, Atlanteans possessed an innate sense of superiority. Everyone else looked like a little brother to them.

They treated the other kingdoms this way, let alone humans. Savage, violent, insane, uncivilized, defecating wherever they pleased—Atlanteans had all kinds of derogatory labels for humanity.

There was nothing wrong with thinking that way. After all, humans had been wreaking havoc on other species for more than a day or two. Lately, they had become obsessed with cultivating mushrooms, planning to wipe themselves out.

Atlanteans did not care if humans wanted to destroy themselves, nor could they do much about it. But the world was only so big, and they feared that humans would drag them down when they destroyed themselves.

For this reason, King Orm had cordially invited King Nereus of the Kingdom of ZeBell and King Riku of the Fishman Kingdom to the royal palace to discuss forming an alliance.

Two of the seven kingdoms had lost contact. The Trench Dwellers had become unteachable sea monsters, while the Saltwater Kingdom had always done as it pleased. Nereus and Riku were the only kings Orm could invite.

Atlantis was exceptionally lively today. With three kings gathered together, it was an unprecedented occasion that had drawn the attention of nearly the entire ocean.

The people of Atlantis were immensely proud. The meeting was being held not in the Kingdom of ZeBell or the Fishman Kingdom, but in Atlantis.
