Chapter 188: My Exploration Of The Marvellous Dark I

..........

"Delicious!" Remarked Yasuo with his eyes closed in pure satisfaction. A piece of appetizing meat was hovering in front of him.

Next to that piece of meat is a silver exquisite pot also hovering and one can clearly notice that he is focusing a bit of his Aura into that closed pot.

As if an invisible knife unrivaled in sharpness cut through the piece of meat, it was instantly cut into several smaller pieces. He continued to slowly eat the small pieces of meat slowly in enjoyment.

"Is there anything in the dark continent that's not as delicious? The dark continent doesn't seem to be a suitable name anymore." Wondered Yasuo as he opened his eyes.

Life is abundant in the dark continent, too much life even, everywhere. Wonderous creatures Yasuo made sure to research and his new ability made that quite easy.

The ability he mimicked from Sanshi, the pot floating before him. One of the most interesting abilities he has seen to date though his proficiency in using it is just average but his progress is phenomenal.

He was comfortably sitting down while observing the beautiful scenery under the vibrant moonlight. The colorful night sky under the numerous bright stars and light sources of this strange universe.

He was watching and relaxing as the scenery continuously changed. He wasn't moving nor was he teleporting around but what he's mounting is moving.

A massive dinosaur that looks similar to a Giganotosaurus with an apparent series of spinal sharp nodes doing down its back to its tail and bringing a touch of red to its dark brown color.

The massive dinosaur had been strolling around quietly under his instructions not daring to disobey.

A lot of creatures in the dark continent seem to have good enough intellect to understand a few things, nowhere near humans but still intelligent to understand Yasuo's simple signals.

The dinosaur seemed to be one of the dominant force around the area as most creatures that sees it escape hastily.

That is if they can of course escape the range of the massive fire breathing machine that is the dinosaur though it rarely attacks, Yasuo usually hunts for animals himself to taste.

However, the dinosaur seems to hold some kind of deep hatred towards specific kinds of animals, an animal similar to Gastornis, massive flightless birds around 8-metre-tall birds sporting an enormously large, intimidating beak.

An extremely swift animal that seems to like to mess around and annoy the massive intimidating dinosaur Yasuo's mounting.

Extremely fast and lean as well as its ability to jump many times its height allowed it to mess around with most things around safely except the one Yasuo has been eating as he wanted to taste it.

His next destination is undetermined as he is basically just strolling around and exploring the continent slowly at his own pace.

He was enjoying his stay in the dark continent as so far it's basically his playground. He met so few things that could pose danger to him.

His stay in the dark continent is kind of a vocation to him and he's planning to take his time exploring it, after all, all he needs is time before the end.

So he took his time exploring around while working on mimicking the abilities he can mimick but needs training to fully mimic them just like how he mimicked Sanshi's conjuration ability but some need much more time and training.

He can however multi-task, in fact, it's one of his strong suits so even while relaxing, he is training on mimicking a few abilities, one of them is Meruem's photons ability.

"Ok, Liz just right here. You can go." After which, Yasuo jumped from its back. The massive dinosaur acted like a scared kitten and directly escaped into the horizon leaving a whirl of dust behind it.

Yasuo didn't pay it any heed to the animal anymore, instead, he turned his attention to the astonishing scenery before him.

The scenery that seems to strangely scare any animals of coming any close as even the massive Lizard Yasuo was mounting was tense coming close to this location.

What lay before his eyes is a colossal hole that goes so deep into below the ground one can only see darkness looking down.

A diameter of a mile and an undetermined depth. A gloomy and eerie air around it keeping any intruders from approaching, the place was unwelcoming of visitors.

Yasuo sat down comfortably on the edge of the circle-shaped hole and lightly lifted his hand sending several invisible strings into the dark depths of the hole.

Aeroeye threads which allowed him to see what's in the dark. He manipulated them to go deeper and deeper until he finds the end while observing everything around to make sure he misses nothing.

Yasuo raised his brows after reaching the end because he found nothing. The end is just like the start, the whole hole is strangely shaped.

The hole was shaped like a perfect spotless cylinder down to the bottom as even the ground at the bottom of the hole was completely flat.

"Interesting," Remarked Yasuo, 'A perfect cylinder shape huh, just what happened here? The air here is definitely strange and eerie.'

'Most importantly, I can sense the dark vile Aura all around, the Aura of the phenomenal called Nen after dead or something similar. Whatever happened, something or many things died here, or perhaps it's something I don't know about?'

Though Yasuo while lightly stroking his earring as a purple crow appeared standing on his shoulder. It blinked then disappeared after the future Yasuo thoroughly investigated the place more closely... Just in case.

He then stood up and teleported above a certain creature not far away, "It's your turn now. Let's see... I will call you Sunflower? Anyway, be a good boy and go in that direction."

The strange creature was stunned frozen not knowing what to do. It was minding its business eating its prey only to feel something suddenly sitting on its back.

The reason he gave the peculiar creature such an unoriginal name is simply because of how its head looks.

A long yellow neck and its head that looks exactly like a sunflower except for the addition of its big round yellow eyes. The same shining petals and a large mouth just below its eyes.

Such a harmless-looking creature was strangely feeding on a large dinosaur-looking animal, much larger than him. That's strange considering the four-legged creature has no teeth at all.

Yet it was consuming the meaty animal-like butter, something Yasuo clearly noticed as he said noticing the sunflower is still frozen not moving at all, "Let me help you out until you can walk on your own."

To the creature's horror, its body betrayed it and started moving on its own and it found itself unable to move it at all.

Yasuo continued to control the creature through his invisible strings until he deemed that Sunflower understood what it has to do and only then did he release his threads.

Afterward, the creatures continued moving. It seems to be extremely proficient in controlling its expression, that or it's something natural to Sunflower's kind.

Perhaps aside from blinking and moving their mouths to eat, they can't show any expression.

Suddenly Yasuo tapped on the creature's head remarking, "That won't work on me. It's useless so just stop lest I evaporate you like you melt and consume your preys okay?"

Sunflower was frozen still for a few seconds before it continued moving as per Yasuo's instructions and it indeed stopped what it was doing.

It stopped releasing the dust-like particles in the air, extremely small yellow particles almost completely impossible to see with the naked eye especially considering the particles' color is similar to the soil beneath their feet.

The creature was large enough for Yasuo to remain comfortably seated on its back as he just stayed silent while the creature was lightly running towards the destination pointed by Yasuo.

Until Yasuo brought a piece of fresh raw meat from nowhere and threw it in front of the creature saying, "This is your reward, perhaps I'll give you more if you behave well."

A small piece of meat should entice the creature or appease him considering Yasuo interrupted his large meal. However, the moment Sunflower laid its eyes on it, it started salivating.

It instantly deemed it's precious and full of energy and indeed, it is. That is the meat of one of the dominant forces of this region, something Sunflower never tasted because its powers are useless against it.

The meat of a giganotosaurus, an animal burning inside, so hot Sunflowers' particles can't go anywhere inside it hence useless.

Even its meat is so hard very few in the dark continent can even eat or chew it, Sunflower happened to be one of them as it let its saliva fall onto the meat before bringing it to its mouth.

A lump of meat that started to melt like butter getting heated up, all under Sunflower's innocent and normal looking saliva.

And so, the meat turned liquid and flowed down into its small belly. Sunflower's eyes were sparkling showing its satisfaction towards the new delicious meal it just ate.

It then continued running with a bit more vigor but not any remarkable speed as Yasuo noted his findings, 'A cautious and intelligent species huh, with remarkable gifts, its certainly interesting.'

"Can you talk and communicate?" Asked Yasuo, to which the creature nodded and started humming in response.

Humming that released obvious sound waves all around, some special kind of sound waves. That got Yasuo's interest as his eyes lit up and did a small experiment.

"Can you hear me?" Yasuo simply started talking, and sound waves were released from his mouth and spread all around, however, not one of those sound waves reached Sunflower.

Sunflower looked a bit puzzled because it saw Yasuo's mouth move but it couldn't understand anything. "It's okay, just continue moving."

'So it can translate sound into words without the need for understanding anything about the language or something similar.'

Thought Yasuo with interest apparent in his eyes as he drank shining yellow blood from a test tube that appeared out of nowhere, blood that sought to melt his inside if not for his miraculous genes devouring it first.

'The most interesting creature I've seen so far, even in contrast to the Brions, soo cunning.' Though Yasuo in amusement as they walked into a large oasis with tall trees everywhere.

Sunflower was following Yasuo's instructions but it was also working on its own cunning plan changing directions ever so slightly to reach this oasis where a trap was already set up.

Yasuo found himself being entertained for every second he was on the dark continent, this wonderous land never ceases to amaze and amuse him.

'So when it showed me how to communicate, it also delivered some information to its kind... Quite cunning indeed.' He thought as several other Sunflowers appeared from between the trees with their mouths wide open...
