Jimmy and Anna arrived at the designated spot, somewhere close to the river that pierced through the grasslands.

"I don't see the tunnel," Anna said.

"Oh, it's underwater," He said, "I did mention what we're supposed to do to get down there, right?"

"Right," She smiled, her head still a mess from the sweet love they made earlier on. "Will you… be able to get it up? I don't want you to drown."

"That's sweet of you," He chuckled, "No worries. It's been an hour, so I have no trouble getting it up."

"That fast huh?" She smirked, and grabbed his crotch as she got on her toes for a kiss. "Are you that excited to see the mermaids? Should I be jealous?"

"I hope you won't be," He kissed her back, "Eni gave me enough of a headache the last time we were here."

"Yeah," She smiled, "I knew she was pissed when she said that you fucked a crocodile."

"I didn't," He said, "I would never fuck a crocodile. She was just mad, and straight up started lying."

"That's hilarious, honestly," She giggled, "Imagine you trying to fuck a crocodile… your dick may be big, but forget satisfying one, you could fit your head in a crocodile pussy."

"Why on Earth would you know something like that?" He jerked his head back.

"We're not on Earth," She corrected, "Also, I don't know, I'm just guessing. Crocodiles here are big."

Anyway, as they had this intellectual conversation, they grew more and more aware of the fact that there was not a mermaid up here to greet them. After all, he and Anna did show up unannounced, three weeks after the first time they met, so it was no surprise that the shapeshifters weren't expecting them.

Thirty minutes in, Jimmy started losing his patience. He could hear the heartbeats of at least three crocodiles in the water, which kept him on his toes. He would hate to fight one of those right now. They were too much of a hassle, especially if they splashed out of the waters, and charged at him or Anna.

A minute later, he got an idea. He killed one of the crocodiles, stopping their heart with little effort. His mana was still at ninety-five percent.

The dead croc floated towards the surface, its white belly facing the sun.

"I thought you said there were three of them?" She pointed out.

"Exactly," He smirked.

Within seconds, the carcass was snapped at, and dragged underwater by yet another crocodile. Chewed up by a member of its own species, giving a good example that wild animals did not care about the moral implications of cannibalism.

The river was coated in blood moments later. A pool of it emerged to the surface, tainting the river with its fresh stench.

Then, another layer of blood popped up. Thicker, more widespread.

Jimmy heard the heartbeats of the two crocodiles rising. He smiled.

"Yup, predictable," He smiled, "They're fighting each other for the carcass."

"I didn't peg you for a psychopath," She said, "Normal people have different ways of dealing with boredom, you know."

"I'm not bored," He said, "I'm sending a signal. The tunnel draws water in."

"Oh…" Anna heaved out a sigh of relief, "So they'll know something's up when a bunch of blood drips in their lake? Good. For a moment, I thought you were losing your marbles."

"No, I have all my marbles, haven't lost one yet." He joked.

Jimmy waited for a couple of minutes, up until the crocodiles chewed up each other quite well, and then he killed them, to spare them from the torture of lost limbs and deep bite marks that they inflicted on each other.

Fifteen minutes later, three mermaids poked their heads out of the river. Shapeshifters.

"Jimmy!" Almara exclaimed, "I thought you forgot about us."

"No… but we did have a war of our own that we had to put an end to." He explained, and then asked, "How are you guys doing? Did my brother Jones manage to help you in any way?"

"Oh, yes," She nodded, and slithered out of the water. "We haven't been bothered by any dinosaurs in a week."

He sighed in relief, "That's good, but do you mind giving us a ride? I know that you no longer need my help, but my beautiful girlfriend wants to look at the dinosaurs."

"That's odd," Almara said, "Why would you waste your time with those damned fish with legs?"

"We're bored," Anna said, making sure to give the shortest answer she could think of, because she didn't feel like explaining herself.

The shapeshifters were very accommodating. Aside from Almara, there was another woman, and a man.

Anna and Jimmy were given a couple of options to choose from.

Anna knew that Jimmy would not like, or even allow her to ride some random man, even if for five minutes, so she didn't even go there. She didn't care to ride a random man either.

She turned to Almara, and said, "Eni told me that mermaid lips are one of a kind. Fishy, but soft, so I want to try them out."

"Sure thing, sweetheart," Almara said, and pulled her into the waters gently.

Jimmy had to jerk off for a solid minute, and then he put his dick in one of the mermaids. One of the women, specifically, as he didn't want to put the man in any discomfort, and he didn't swing that way either.

His dick jerked up and down on the mermaid's vagina. The mermaid was too big for him, literally, she seemed like a Jurassic Era mermaid, rightfully huge.

Just like that, the five of them dipped into the tunnel, one after the other, and headed towards the underworld.

With the crocs dead, and floating across the river, attracting other predatory fish, and luring them away from the tunnel, Jimmy's and everyone else's descent was smooth. They weren't bothered.

Gutaxun, as taught, started heading back home. Jimmy and Anna wanted to spend a few days in the underworld, so it would not make any sense for Gutaxun to wait for them here.
