### Summary
The primary mission to find a cure for Lita's mutating disease remains indefinitely stalled as the protagonists confront a sinister human conspiracy. Having infiltrated a new settlement, Bota, Lita, and their guardian Kana have discovered that its duplicitous chief, "Mr. Mori," maintains a facade of safety by secretly sacrificing refugees to a powerful leviathan lurking beneath the city. This creature is suspected to be one of the seven "Sea Demons" and may be the same intelligent monster that murdered their father, Teon Ma. Following a significant time skip, Bota has matured into a capable warrior, poised to expose the chief's treachery. However, the grim survival narrative has been complicated by the introduction of the controversial character Sonia, whose provocative design and actions have created a divisive tonal shift. Recent events suggest an imminent confrontation is brewing, as a new, intimidating figure has appeared, prompting readers to anticipate a clash with the settlement's corrupt leadership.
