At the coast at the edge of the Sky Deceiving Valley, Shin and his little group of Elental Spirits were already fighting the invading sea monsters for almost three hours. The monsters continued to attack the coastline relentlessly, seemingly not planning to stop until they completely sward at the land.
This seemingly endless wave of monsters was neither slowing down nor showing signs of weakening. It even looked like they were getting stronger as more ti went by. More powerful and much larger monsters were even appearing more frequently as the battle continued.
But despite all of this, Shin and his group were still not showing any weakness while fighting. They continued to slaughter the sea monsters even if the waves seed to be endless.
Shin had already no idea how many monsters were killed, but he knew that the number would continue to increase, and this battle would last a little longer since they could not find the leader of the monsters.
But despite this seemingly boring and one-sided massacre, Shin seed to be enjoying the battle. He was observing them, especially the two that recently got promoted into Monarchs, Whitie and Blackie.
The two seed to be eager to try their newly improved abilities and recently acquired powers. They imdiately transford into their respective Elental Transformations and flew over the sea while slaughtering the monsters along the way.
Whitie was shooting a series of light beams with every strike of his fist while Blackie turned into a shadow that swept through the entire battlefield, killing every sea monster she ca across.
From ti to ti, the two were also executing a few skills that covered quite a large area. At tis, the skills that they were using so single-target skills, killing their targets in an instant.
This part of the sea had already transford into a slaughterhouse. Monster corpses and pieces of at scattered everywhere while the sea water either turned red or green due to the blood of these dead monsters.
The other elental spirits were also performing well, particularly Vladimir, who seed to be a Sovereign Being on this battlefield. His performance was more efficient and much faster compared to even Hanzo or Solus.
This Noblesse Crimson Spirit had access to a seemingly endless blood. The continuous appearance and attack of the monsters seed to have worked in his favor. As the rest killed the sea monsters and left their corpses behind, the blood that dyed the sea beca his weapon while the place itself turned into his domain.
Shin saw this conceited elental spirit start showing his absolute dominance in a field where he could fully showcase his power.
At the sa ti, he had also seen how powerful Vladimir had beco. This elental spirit also showed him the power of the inheritance that he had gotten from Dracula. Different techniques and skills were being displayed one after another as Vladimir slaughtered the sea monsters.
Blood weapons, blood strings, blood energy, and many more were being used as Vladimir fought, which gave Shin so inspiration on how he would unitize the Blood Elental Mana that he controlled within the ga.
From what Shin could see, Vladimir was almost done digesting all the knowledge that Dracula had given him along with the blessings that he had received with it.
It would be a matter of ti until Vladimir also beca a Monarch.
As for Astaroth, he remained on the coast and stayed with Shin. He stood in front of his master while killing all the monsters that would try to reach the land after getting past the rest due to luck.
With his protection, Shin was able to observe the entire battlefield without any issues.
That was also when Shin noticed sothing strange. Grimrace, the nutjob who was always eager to create trouble and enjoy this kind of slaughter, was acting a little odd.
This Eldrich Psychic Spirit was fighting quite well just like the rest, but Shin noticed that this guy was sowhat distracted by sothing.
Grimrace was still killing the sea monsters, but unlike when he was dancing and making gestures with his hands while doing so, he was doing it with an uninterested and bored look on his face.
Shin squinted his eyes and observed Grimrace a little closer. That was when he found out that this nutjob of an elental spirit kept on looking at a certain part of the sea.
Shin frowned a little and turned at that part where Grimrace kept on glancing. But even after paying close attention and using his 'True Sight' skill, he was unable to see anything.
He tried communicating with Hanzo, Solus, and Vladimir to ask if they noticed sothing, but they also failed to find whatever it was in that part of the sea despite their powerful senses.
With that, Shin had no choice but to ask Grimrace himself through mind communication. "What's the matter? Have you found the leader or sothing?"
Grimrace remained a little distracted, making him respond a little late. But instead of answering, he seed to ask permission. "Master, can you let go to that part of the sea? I think I find sothing that will be beneficial to there."
Shin beca even more confused when he heard how Grimrace addressed him. "Since when this nutjob has beco this polite? I don't think he has called 'Master' before."
Regardless, Shin nodded his head as he was also quite curious about what Grimrace had discovered. He wanted to ask what it was, but the abomination spirit had ignored him and charged toward a certain part of the sea.
Grimrace turned into a black silhouette while flying above the water's surface before diving straight down after reaching a certain spot.
Blackie also moved and filled the gap that Grimrace had left, making sure that there was no sea monster would go past her.
Shin beca more and more confused at the actions that Grimrace was showing, especially when he noticed the impatience from the abomination spirit.
But chose to trust Grimrace and decided to wait. This abomination spirit might be a complete nutjob at tis, but Grimrace always produced results when needed.
…
Swoosh!
Sowhere deep in the sea, Grimrace dove down at a speed faster than any sea monster swimming in the water.
So of the monsters tried to obstruct his path, but this Eldrich Psychic Spirit only used his telekinetic powers to ward them off and push them away.
Grimrace created a sphere with his Psychic powers as he dove deeper and moved faster.
Not long after, he arrived at the bottom of the sea where the pressure was so strong that it could crush even the largest boulders within a couple of seconds.
Grimrace ignored it and continued to go deeper until he ca across a humongous silhouette of a sea monster. Its size was so huge that it resembled a tall mountain that could touch the clouds.
Grimrace squinted his eyes as he stared at this sea monster until the latter slowly opened its huge eyes.
These eyes seed to glow brightly even in this deepest part of the sea, shining down to Grimrace, who was standing in front of it.
When Grimrace saw that pair of eyes, he instantly recognized the aura of the latter. He smirked and said. "I see that you are like . We co from the sa root, yet also sowhat different."
His face then turned back to his usual excited and cruel expression before saying. "It seems like it is my turn now."
After that, he extended his hand forward before releasing a powerful wave of psychic energy, pushing forward.
In response, the giant sea monster suddenly moved. Black silhouettes that looked like huge ropes or whips suddenly appeared around it, dancing along the current of the water underneath the sea. These were the tentacles of the monster.
Each tentacle released an invisible energy that was similar to the one that Grimrace had released, but sowhat stronger.
Bang!
There was a collision that sent a strong ripple in every direction. The ground underneath the sea shook as if an earthquake suddenly occurred. Sand and dirt suddenly rose and clouded the water, hiding the figures of the two.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of explosions imdiately followed as the two continued to exchange attacks with their respective Psychic Powers.
…
Rumble!
Back on the surface, Shin could sense the intense shaking of the ground. When he tried feeling it a little clearer, he discovered that the epicenter of this earthquake was coming from the depths of the sea.
At that ti, he instantly knew that it was due to Grimrace. Whatever that abomination spirit had found down there, he was sure that the nutjob was fighting it.
This lasted for quite a while and started to affect the surface. Then a few more monts later, the waves that were slamming on the coast suddenly weakened before the water receded as if sothing was pulling it back to the sea.
Shin already knew what was coming next.
Swoosh!
A seemingly huge wall of water appeared in the distance and moved toward the land at a speed that could not be imagined. The rumbling sound of the waves could be heard even from a great distance.
A huge tsunami was coming.
As for the monsters that their group was fighting earlier, more of them could be seen riding this incoming tsunami.
Shin could not help but frown deeply due to this. But he did not feel that troubled due to his confidence in his Elental Spirit Companions.
"Astaroth," he called while looking at the incoming tsunami.
The Obsidian Guardian Spirit did not need to hear Shin's instructions as he already understood what he needed to do. He stepped forward before raising his greatsword and holding it with both of his hands invertedly.
Swoosh!
Bang!
He then slamd it into the ground while channeling his mana into it. A shockwave spread in every direction before an aftershock that quickly moved in a horizontal direction, covering the entire coast.
Rumble!
Not long after, the land suddenly moved upwards and ford a tall wall throughout the coast, reaching hundreds of ters and at least dozens of ters thick.
Shin and Astaroth stood on the top of this wall while the rest of Elental Spirits gathered there.
They watched the tsunami arrive before finally moving when it was about to reach them.
The tsunami was slightly taller than the wall that Astaroth had built, casting a shadow on them. But before it could even hit them, Hanzo suddenly and swung his dual-bladed weapon horizontally.
Shing!
The space itself seed to have been cut by his actions.
Then the tall tsunami was cut in half along with so of the monsters that were riding it. The lower part slamd into the wall of earth, shaking its foundations intensely but unable to destroy the entire wall.
In the anti, the upper part of the tsunami was separated in the air and was about to fall.
But Solus and Whitie swiftly moved at that ti. Both extended their hands before respectively releasing beams of energy made of fire and light, evaporating the falling water, and obliterating the monsters riding it.
On the other hand, Vladimir and Blackie dealt with the monsters that were left below along with Astaroth, who was protecting Shin.
Boom!
When everything slightly cald down, Shin heard a loud sound coming from the distance.
He raised his head and looked in that direction, seeming a part of the water rising. He could see that sothing was surfacing from the depths of the side.
Swoosh!
Then he saw a small figure compared to this rising 'hill' flying in the sky.
It was Grimrace.
A few monts later, Shin saw a giant jellyfish with a body that covered a huge portion of the sea appear along with its hundreds, or thousands, of tentacles.
A powerful pressure suddenly spread across everything right after the appearance of this monster, making Shin realize how strong it was.
However, it was not powerful enough to make Shin helpless as he had seen many terrifying figures before.
Then suddenly noticed Grimrace acting like his normal self once again, or more specifically, in a much crazier state. It was as if this abomination spirit beca a beast that suddenly found a delicious al after starving for a very long ti.
