CHAPTER 34

Kin and Sonia swam after Leta, and the three of them got into the bubble.

“Is this bubble strong resist water pressure?“ asked Kin while pressing against the bubble wall with his index finger.

“Yes, even a nuclear explosion cannot destroy it,“ Leta replied.

Leta raised her right hand up to chest level, then slowly lowered her hand towards the navel. The bubbles that Leta, Sonia and Kin were carrying followed Leta's hand. The bubble slowly descends into the sea.

Sonia and Kin were amazed by the scenery within the sea. Small fish with a variety of colors swim back and forth through the bubbles they ride.

Then Sonia looked towards Leta who was standing behind her. “Leta, why don't you make this bubble in a box or triangle shape? I think it will be more comfortable we ride,“ said Sonia.

“Yes, but it will be difficult for who will pull it,“ Leta reply.

“OK,“ said Sonia while nodding her head. “Then, who will pull this ball?“ ask Sonia later.

Leta pressed her right palm against the bubble wall that was before her. “Kraken,“ call Leta later.

Sonia and Kin looked at each other when they heard Leta say, Kraken.

“Leta, I hope there are dolphins or sea turtles that you name Kraken,“ said Sonia, with a worried-looking face.

“No,“ reply Leta while shaking her head. “Kraken is a giant octopus,“ Leta continued.

Kin looked towards Sonia next to him. “Sonia, consider turning into Aquarius, now,“ whispered Kin.

“I've done it,“ replied Sonia, then she looked at Kin's face with eyeballs that had changed color to blue.

Soon, from the darkness of the sea far ahead of the bubbles they were riding, a giant octopus darted towards them.

“Ok, he is big,“ said Sonia while staring at the creatures that were approaching them. “And he is also fast,“ continued Sonia.

As the Kraken drew closer, those inside the bubble could clearly see the shape of the giant octopus. “Leta, isn't he dangerous?“ asked Sonia who looked panicked.

Leta laughed at Sonia's words. “Calm down, he's my friend since I was a kid,“ explains Leta.

“Kin, this woman is more dangerous than me,” whispered Sonia as she pointed at Leta who was in front of her.

With a pale-looking face, Kin nodded his head.

Kraken stopped his pace. The distance with bubbles ranged from a hundred meters.

Kin and Sonia looked at the giant octopus with fear as well as amazement.

The Kraken is like any other octopus. But his body seems so big that it exceeds the size of a blue whale. The Kraken has eight arms with suction devices in the form of concave circles on the inside of its arms that are used to move and catch prey.

“Kin,“ whispered Sonia. “Does the octopus arm we call tentacles?“ ask Sonia.

“That question has been in my head since the time Leta mentioned the name Kraken,“ Sonia replied.

“Gurita has no tantacles, so you call it, arms,“ replied Kin.

Sonia nodded her head as she stared at the Kraken arms.

“Kraken, take us to Pisces Palace,“ Leta told Kraken.

Kraken looked at Leta with his big yellow eyes. Then his two arms moved towards the bubble and wrapped around the bubble gently.

Sonia Robert stared at the concave circle of Kraken arms stuck to the bubble wall. The concave circle of ivory looks decubate.

Sonia stared at the concave circle, kept looking at him, then she turned her gaze towards Leta. “Hey, Leta. Can you tell that octopus to stop talking about his arms? It looks disgusting,“ he said.

Leta laughed at Sonia's question. “Sonia, she can hear you,“ Leta replied while looking at Sonia's face.

Sonia was silent for a moment, Kin and Leta both looked at Sonia. The big eyes of the Kraken were also staring at Sonia.

“Hey, Kraken. Know it? I just got out of a mental hospital a few days ago. So, I'm still a little difficult to string the right words together. I mean it was tickling, not disgusting.“ Sonia tried to give an excuse to the Kraken.

The Kraken turned its body towards the ocean. Slowly he began to move straight ahead.

“He told me earlier, how can you act so annoying and adorable at the same time?“ leta said to Sonia with a smile.

Sonia smiled in relief while twitching her brows, while Kin took a deep breath.
