I Am Unstoppable

Jonathan couldn't help but feel there was something off about Briana. Huh... Briana had been an arrogant, spoiled, wilful brat for as long as I can remember. That's why I never took her seriously in the past. Right now, however, I actually perceive her as a threat!

“What do you mean by that?” Jonathan asked.

Briana let out a giggle as she replied, “Oh, don't worry about it. You'll find out sooner or later.”

“F*ck!” Jonathan yelled in frustration and slammed his palm onto the table, splitting it into four on the spot.

The wine spilled everywhere, and the steak and fruits went flying in different directions.

Jonathan then ran up to Briana with lightning speed and grabbed her by the throat.

Briana simply stared coldly at him in response.

That irritated Jonathan even further. “F*ck you! I hate it when people fool around like this! You said you're already dead, right? In that case, I'll make sure you're actually dead!”

He tightened his grip on her throat after saying that.

Briana's expression was instantly filled with pain and anguish as her face turned purple from the lack of oxygen.

“Where's the prismatic crystal? And don't give me any more of those riddles!” Jonathan asked sternly.

Briana tried to say something but couldn't speak due to the pressure from Jonathan's grip.

Jonathan loosened his grip just enough to let her speak, but he held on to her throat so he could choke her again if she tried anything funny.

Since he had completed his mission, he could just forget about the prismatic crystal and Immortal Pill.

Victor is the only one who will be affected if Briana doesn't do as I say. Judging by Briana's behavior, however, I doubt she even cares about him anymore.

Briana ignored Jonathan's threats and simply flashed him a creepy smile as she said, “Orcus is here.”

Infuriated, Jonathan sent Briana flying with a slap, knocking her unconscious on the spot.

He knew that Briana wasn't herself anymore.

While he wasn't entirely sure what was going on, he was starting to panic a little on the inside.

Orcus is here? What does that even mean?

Jonathan soon understood what those words meant when something unexpected happened.

Tate came running over from the cockpit and yelled, “B-Bad news! The sky is changing!”

“What's going on?” Jonathan asked as he ran outside.

“Look!” Tate exclaimed while pointing at the sky north of them.

Jonathan glanced at the sky and saw that it was filled with thunderclouds. A strong wind was blowing across the ocean and stirring up huge waves in the water.

Those were all telltale signs that a thunderstorm was coming.

“Is this really Orcus' doing?” Jonathan exclaimed as fear began spreading through his body.

With no time left to lose, he told Tate, “I want you and your friend to put on life jackets and lifebuoys. We're not far from shore, so there's a high chance that we'll be rescued if this ship capsizes! I'll call for help right away!”

Jonathan then whipped out his phone, only to frown in frustration when he realized there was no signal.

After helping Dante put on a life jacket and lifebuoy, Jonathan woke Briana up by calling out to her.

He didn't know what was wrong with her, but he couldn't just leave her to drown in the ocean.

Briana went back to smiling creepily at Jonathan after regaining consciousness, much to his discomfort.

Man, her smile is so creepy! She should definitely go star in a horror film or something!

The thunderstorm came right when they were mostly done preparing for it.

In just a matter of seconds, they were facing a combination of deafening thunder, blinding flashes of lightning, and a torrential downpour.

The raindrops felt like bullets as they came hammering down on them, and the raging waves were hitting the ship repeatedly on all sides.

It wasn't long before the seawater began splashing onto the ship.

Jonathan and the others were all on the deck of the ship. By then, Lyle Champion, the pilot Jonathan knocked unconscious earlier, was already awake.

As their lives were all on the line, nobody was in the mood to say anything.

Suddenly, they noticed an enormous tidal wave heading toward them from the north.

“Grab on to the ship! Don't get separated!” Jonathan yelled at the top of his lungs.

Tate and the others did as told and held on to the rail as tightly as they could.

Boom!

The entire ship felt like it was going to capsize when the enormous tidal wave came crashing down upon them.

Jonathan and the others were all drenched with seawater.

Fortunately for them, the climate in the area was rather warm, so the seawater wasn't unbearably cold.

The ship was starting to crack from the wave's impact.

Despite having achieved Immortal Level, there wasn't much Jonathan could do in a situation like this. All he could do was cling to the rail for dear life in the extreme weather.

His body felt like it was coming apart from being hit by the tidal waves.

After what seemed like forever, the thunderstorm finally came to an end, and the ocean returned to its usual calm state.

As the thunderclouds in the sky began to clear up, the first rays of the morning sun shined down on them.

Whoa... What the heck is with this weather?

Because Jonathan was wearing a life jacket and a lifebuoy when the tidal wave hit them, he remained afloat while clinging to the rail.

As he instinctively glanced about, he was surprised to see that Dante, Tate, and Lyle were all clinging tightly to the rail.

However, Briana was nowhere to be seen.

Everyone felt relieved when they saw that they had survived the tidal wave.

Since the ship was still afloat in the ocean, everyone climbed on board to get out of the water.

Although the ship was quite damaged, it was able to carry all four of them without any issues.

Jonathan stood up and made an attempt to determine where they were.

While he was able to identify the direction they were going in, he couldn't tell exactly where they were.

Jonathan then sat down and tried to keep himself calm.

Being the core member of the group, he had to remain calm to prevent others from panicking.

He couldn't even be bothered to feel worried about Briana going missing.

Maybe her going missing is part of her fate... I don't know who or what Orcus is, but I do know that I'm still alive right now. Maybe this thunderstorm is no different from any other. Briana was probably just making all that stuff up. That's the only logical explanation I can come up with.

With that in mind, Jonathan turned toward Dante and asked, “How's your wound?”

Since seawater contained high amounts of salt, he figured Dante's wound must've hurt a lot. Although Dante was indeed in pain, he was also a very tough man. “It's fine; I can take it,” he replied with a smile.

Jonathan simply returned the smile without asking any further questions.

He didn't have any means to treat Dante's wound, so focusing on the task at hand was all he could do.

“We shouldn't be too far from shore, so there will be ships passing through this area. All we have to do is wait for a ship to pass and signal for help,” Jonathan said.

Tate and Lyle nodded in agreement.

“In the event that we either don't come across any ships or aren't allowed on board, then we will have to prepare for the worst. I hate to say this, but swimming back will then be our only option. By using the sun as a reference point, we'll need to swim to the east to get back to shore,” Jonathan continued.
