A vacation in another dimension (part 2)

(Shayla POV)

Woah, an island size turtle? That is about... 100 times the size of a normal rock turtle? or is that 1000 times bigger? The system, can you tell me the size of this turtle?

[This island turtle has a size comparable to a city. More than 10000 thousand people can live on that turtle's shell without problems. While the turtle can fit more on its shell, I do not recommend putting more than that number.]

He is so big! I wonder what will happen if he sleeps? Will his body crushes the whole city and become a mountain to replace it?

'Mother, I don't think it's the correct time to think about that, he is going toward us right now.' He is coming toward us? Great! Let's go closer, I want to play on his shell.

'What do you mean getting closer mom? He is a raid boss! He will eat us.' Akatori, lower your volume please, don't shout in my head. Although he is a raid boss, in his description said he is a passive one so as long as we stay friends, he won't harm us.

'...I don't know what to say about your logic any more mom. But you should know that he is hungry and passing by to get food, what happens if he wants to eat us?' Oh, you silly girl, I know he wouldn't do that, my instinct and my mind already set! You can't stop me Aka-chan, Hebi-chan.

"No more disobedient, be a good girl Aka-chan, let's get closer."

-----------------------------------

(3rd POV)

The phoenix doesn't have any other choice but to believe her mother and obey the order. She flies straight in the turtle's direction slowly, the old monster raises its head and look at Akatori flying toward it, the turtle look at the phoenix for a second then continues its journey.

"See? The turtle ignore us, I knew that he isn't a bad monster." Shayla said to her daughters, they didn't respond because they are getting closer to a true monster they couldn't deal with.

"Hello there Mr.turtle, may I play on your back, please?" Shayla innocently asked the turtle which make both Hebi and Akatori mentally facepalm themself.

'...You may little one, but remember to avoid my wound.' A low voice echo in the three's mind which make the 2 of them have a mental shock while Shayla feels a bit strange and let it slide away. "Thank you Mr.turtle, let's go Aka-chan, remember to land carefully to avoid his wound." Shayla's words awake the shocked phoenix.

Akatori descend slowly on the old turtle's shell and landed on the thick layer of dirt. Shayla jumped off Akatori's back and look around the place with her Haki, the island on the turtle's back is filled with trees that are rooted into the shell, there is also some kind of sea bird walking around the tree to eat the strange moss on the tree's body.

"Woah, he is carrying a whole island on his shell, I wonder if the island contains anything special? Let's go deeper Hebi-chan, I want to explore this shell." Shayla ran off into the island, following behind is Hebi and Akatori, while both of them doesn't want to do it they still have to for their mother.

'Mom, please don't run fast like that, your stats are higher than us, even though our level might be higher than you so please run slower.' Hebi said to Shayla through telepathy. "Why should I run slower? Last time we have to spend more than an hour walking inside that forest, I'm not going to do that again." Shayla starts to speed up, even more, leaving her pet behind and jumping past any obstacles.

"My haki is scanning so fast after level up, I wonder if it can still catch up if I-"*Bamm*

While running at inhuman speed, Shayla stumbles into something that her Haki couldn't trace and because of that, she got hit quite hard.

"Mn, my head hurt, what happen?" Shayla questioned herself and rub her forehead which have a small scratch on it, she used phoenix flame to cover the injury and healed it almost immediately "oh, it's already healed, that is quite fast! Now, what did I stumble against?" She stood up and search for something that Haki didn't able to catch, but the searching end almost immediately because Shayla hit her head into the invisible object... again.

"Mou~ Why did I hit my head every time, is there an invisible wall here?" Shayla stands up again and this time she is being more careful than last time.

Her small hand touched the wall that have blocked her way multiple times earlier, to Shayla, it's a very smooth and steady wall because there is not a single pattern on the wall and Shayla's strength could break it too.

Not long after that, her two pets also arrived and saw their mother helplessly trying to break the 'wall', Hebi decide to ask Shayla what is she doing, she simply reply that there is an invisible wall that didn't let her pass so she is trying to destroy it.

What Shayla's trying to destroy isn't a wall, it's a green barrier that covers the whole area in the middle of the island.

'Mother, that is a magic barrier, not a wall.' Akatori said helplessly.

"Oh really? That explains why it didn't fall when I punch it, turn out I need magic to destroy it." Shayla stops her punching barrage and change to using light magic.

'That isn't the point mom, the question is that why did the barrier is here on the old turtle's back?' Hebi said.

"Well, I think we will find the reason behind this barrier so let's destroy it first." Shayla simple thinking makes both of her daughters speechless but they quickly recover and help their mother to break the barrier.

*Crack*...

*BANG*

"Muahahaha, nothing will stand in my way to solve this mystery of the old turtle." Shayla laughed childishly and walk further into the area, now her Haki has worked again and scanned the whole area, showing various strange structures made by humans.

She continues to go further until she reaches the location which she feels most of the energy is gathering and nearly stripped again because of a crack on the surface.

"Why is there a crack here? Isn't this the shell of Mr.turtle? If he has a crack on his shield then does that mean he is hurt?" Shayla asked her daughter

'I think so mother, this is must be the wound he is talking about, why don't you try to heal him with your magic?'

"I'm not sure if my magic even works on this kind of wound, but I will try." Shayla cast her healing magic on the crack but stopped it after reading the two notification pop-ups

[Your healing skill were too low for this wound]

[Something is blocking your healing magic, please remove it first]

"Something is blocking my healing power?" Shayla look around the area to find the things that caused this kind of phenomenon. After going deeper into the cracking area by flying, Shayla found the answer she was looking for.

Life energy device (near breaking point)

Convert life energy to alien energy, 1 year of life energy can be converted to 1 year worth of energy for a normal human. This device also contains some extra functions such as barrier creating, opening a portal to a designated place and can transform into an energy cannon when necessary.

This device can break down at any moment now so most of its functions are locked.

"Woah, such a powerful device but the cost is a bit too much... how can I remove this thing though, Mr.turtle's life will continue to be drained by this thing if I don't remove it. Can I put it inside my inventory?"

[Do you want to store the item into your inventory?]

"So It's counted as an item too, yes, store it inside my inventory." After she ends her sentence, the strange pillar-like device disappears in an instant.

*RUMBLE*

*ROAR!*

'I have never felt so alive for the past 1000 years, thank you young one for removing that damned machine. I own you this one young one, if you have any request as long as it's within my ability, I will do it' The old turtle speak to Shayla and her pets by telepathy.

Shayla become happy again after hearing that "Really Mr Turtle? Then can you become my familiar? We are lacking someone to move across the ocean."

'Familiar? I think I have heard that term a long time ago from some human with magic. Is that a magic contact?'

"It can be understood that way, by becoming my familiar, you will have access to a living dimension where you can live there freely without being worried about food and predator.

'That sound tempting to me, especially when I need a place to stay. Fine, I will become your familiar, just don't bring this old body for a fight yet, my body isn't healthy enough for that."

[Elder island turtle has been added to your familiar list]

"Yay, welcome to the team Mr.turtle, or can I call you by a different name?"

'I already have a name someone has given to me a long time ago. My name is Kameruto, it was given by my previous master.' The turtle said with some nostalgia in his mental voice.

"Then I will call you Kame-san then. Now, I will show you my power as a divine tamer. Open the portal!"

In front of the island turtle, the space began to tear apart and was ripped open, leading to a new dimension no one has seen before, the new dimension is filled with clean water, normal fish and animal are living all according to the rules.

'Magnificant! I have never seen such a calm ocean before, you are really a special girl, aren't you?' Kame-san asked and step through the portal.

"umu, I'm indeed very special!" Shayla proudly exclaim.
