Four days later, halfway through their destination, Alex's ship was about to arrive near the Wolfang Empire. Yesterday night Alex had a chat with his friends; Leon was still stuck in his hotown, accompanying his sister while Ferris and Eris were taking so trial. Kuina was busy as well.
Sakuya had learned to fight against her phobia, it wasn't perfect yet, but so progress had been made; she could not sit on her bed and not tremble as she used to on their first days, however, going on the deck to enjoy the sea was still not possible.
''I think you have made pretty good progress; you should keep up,'' Alex said he was alone with Sakuya; Lilith has gone out for so fresh air.
Suddenly, Lilith entered without knocking.
''What is happening?" Sakuya was the first to raise this question; due to her oversensitivity in the sea, she knew sothing was happening, and indeed she was right.
''A storm is coming.'' Lilith's response was short, and yet colors drained from Sakuya's face, she started shaking.
Alex stood up and went outside on the deck in a hurry. On the deck, strong gales and high waves are assaulting the ships.
No matter how you look at it, it was strange, the weather was fine a mont ago, and suddenly, it beca cloudy all of a sudden? Alex's face sank; there was only one explanation for their current situation; soone or sothing was behind this sudden change.
''This is not a natural storm! It suddenly appeared without any signs! This must be a work of so sea monster, Mr. Sam; we might not be able to make it. I don't understand why this is happening.''
The captain said the mont he spotted Alex.
Suddenly, a violent wave ca crashing against the ship shaking, people on the deck were forced to grab the rails not to fall into the sea. However, it wasn't the end; more and more waves crashed against the ship making accumulate more damage.
''Captain! Get us out of this storm!" Alex roared.
"I'm doing it right now!" The captain answered as he did his best to bring the ship out of the storm.
''Use the canon as propulsive to send us out of this storm.'' Suddenly, Alex got an idea; thus he suggested.
''We-"
Roaaarrrrrrrrrrrr!
A sudden roar interrupted the captain, and the ship was sent flying backward.
Boom! Crack!
Cracks appeared all over the ship, and it was about to sink.
〖Quickly evacuate the Sea monster that is about to attack.〗Silveria warned Alex cursed his bad luck. He imdiately instructed via telepathy.
''Lilith, please help the captain and others use the rescue boats. Sakuya will help you out. Quickly, I will take care of the monster; however, I don't want to reveal my strength in front of others.''
''Understood, don't worry, I have my way of dealing with the problem. They would rember anything.'' Lilith responded; Alex didn't bother asking her what she ant by saying that; he was busy looking for the monster's location amidst the storm.
Si~ Si~ Boom!
Lightning struck the almost sunken ship, Lilith and Sakuya were helping the others board the small boats, Alex stood on the front levitating slightly above the water, because of mist, ordinary people couldn't see him.
Then it ca.
"The Sea Dragon...!?"
A Dragon with a long body wrapped up in beautiful blue scales that looked like they were ford with clear water.
It has a pair of wings and arms. Its feet are probably subrged underwater. A dragon that adapted to the sea. Its appearance was close to a snake but too big to be one.
Just the part that erges from the water is already over 20 ters long. Everyone was shaken by its figure that was much larger and more terrifying than the average sea dragon; this one is at least two hundred years old, an S class monster.
Uninterested in those people's reactions, the sea monster slowly opens its mouth.
And shoots out a giant water bullet.
It was incomparable to what one can create using normal water magic.
Imdiately aware of the danger, Lilith gave her an order.
"Evasive maneuver!"
Imdiately, Sakuya summoned wind around the small boats and made them change direction at the last mont.
Kaboom!
Thanks to Lilith and Sakuya tily maneuver, the two boats were able to escape the terrible fate of getting crushed by the giant water ball that had the strength of a small teorite.
"Roaaarrrrrrrrrrrr!"
The sea dragon roared, seeing its target escape from its attack; it opened its mouth again to prepare another terrible attack, and how is Alex going to let him do that?
Without hesitation, he released all of his strength and appeared in front of the monster.
At first, the sea dragon was surprised as the monster hadn't felt Alex's presence; however, seeing it was a puny human that dared to stand against such a noble being, the sea dragon opened its move and fired.
Boom! BANG!
Following the shot, Alex imdiately used a crimson bullet, the sea dragon's eyes widened, and sothing unexpected happened, the monster retreated before the giant water ball, and the crimson bullet clashed.
Kabooooom!
Both Alex and the retreating monster got pushed because of his small fra, Alex suffered more.
anwhile, when Alex and the sea dragon were exchanging their first blow, on the other side, two small boats were putting distance between them and the terrible monster; naturally, it was the group composed of Lilith, Sakuya, and other ship mbers.
''Where is Mr. Sam?"
The captain couldn't help but raise this question as he did not see Alex anywhere after they successfully put a distance between them and the monster.
''D-don't worry, he will join us soon. He is fighting against the monster to buy us so ti. Don't worry; he is strong.''
Unexpectedly, it was Sakuya who responded, she did her best not to show her Aquaphobia in front of others.
''I wonder if he can survive. It's a Rank S monster we are talking about, maybe you have-"
Before the captain could finish what he was saying, his eyes turned white; he was not the only one; his other crew mbers had the sa symptoms.
''Mind manipulation.''
Lilithcoldlyy muttered before flicking her fingers; the captain and his crew mbers were imdiately put to sleep; when they awoke, they would rember only what Lilith wished them to rember.
''Done.''
''Great!"
Alex could now fight to his heart content.
