”Everyone prepare yourselves!” Leo warned Axel and the others inside the cabin.
Without questioning anything, Axel and the others quickly followed after Leo upstairs.
As soon as they arrived at the top of the boat, they quickly went to their respective position.
”What happened?” Axel can't help but ask. They were just eating awhile ago, yet a really serious thing has actually happened.
”Yeah, the problem shouldn't have arisen since it was only you and teacher Homer up here!” Murgan added. Leo and teacher Homer were both smart people, so they should have easily been able to easily avoid a dangerous situation during their shift.
Unless, of course,
”We meet a troublesome Magical Beast Shark!” Leo informed.
”How troublesome?” Aiden asked.
”He literally wants to knock on our doors, no matter how many times we try to change directions,” Leo answered.
”The heck such Magical Beast actually exists?” Axel became dumbfounded.
”How people behave is likewise how Magical Beast behaves.” Levi butted in.
”Yep, as long as one is living, either a person or a Magical Beast, then they are bounded to have similar traits!” Teacher Homer added.
Hearing teacher Homer's words, Leo nodded his head. That was the same thing as what his Master Olivia had told him before.
After a while, more than 50 Magical Beast Sharks surfaced from the ocean, surrounding the boat in all directions, even the sky up above them.
”Prepare yourselves!” Teacher Homer ordered as he released the Magic power of a powerful 5 Star Mage all around the boat, hoping to scare some weaker Magical Beast Shark.
The Magical Beast Sharks that surround them range from No Star to 3 Star Magical Beast, so teacher Homer thought that he might scare them since he is a higher level than them.
Contrary to that, though, no one actually got scared of teacher Homer's Magic power. In fact, they even planned to let that powerful Mage expand the perimeter of the Magic Power he is currently releasing in order to attract more Magical Beast Sharks.
”Stop releasing!” Levi quickly warned.
Without thinking any longer, teacher Homer also followed after. The moment he started releasing his Magic power, he quickly realized that he had done something really stupid.
The Magic power when released in the ocean actually forms into a complete sphere, which is really different when inland since it would only form half a sphere since it cannot spread to the ground.
Teacher Homer was long aware of that fact, but what he never expected was that it would actually attract some more Magical Beast Sharks towards them instead of scaring them away.
”As long as we are in the ocean, then no Magical Beast Sharks would show any fear!” Levi explained. ”Especially to mere Humans!”
”They dare underestimate our race?” Axel exclaimed.
”Actually, Humans are nothing but a side dish for them...” Levi answered, ”To be more exact, Humans are side dishes that only a few even want.”
”What?!” Axel can't help but feel annoyed, ”Then what is the main dish?”
”Merlfolks are the main dish!” Levi replied.
”Aren't they tired of always eating seafood?” Murgan suddenly added.
”Aren't you tired of always eating pork, beef, and chicken?” Levi rolled his eyes.
”.....”
The moment the Magic power was retracted, the Magical Beast Sharks finally began their assault.
”Kraaaghhh!”
”Kraaaghhh!”
All of the Magical Beast Sharks charged directly straight towards the boat.
The moment the boat was destroyed, they could pretty much cherry-pick all the Humans afterwards.
”I'll cast a Magical barrier so that they cannot easily destroy the boat. You guys go and try your best to kill as many No Star Magical Beast as possible!” Teacher Homer said.
”Roger!” Everyone nodded in unison.
*Whoooosh!
A Magical barrier right after appeared to defend the boat.
”Focus your Magic spells only at those No Star Magical Beast, you still can't cause any noticeable damage to 1 Star Magical Beast!” Teacher Homer reminded once again.
At this moment, Leo realized that he wouldn't be able to do much help. He was almost always relying on his Elementals or his weapons, hence his Magic spells weren't up to the standards yet of causing even the No Star Magical Beast enough damage. Not to mention, this was the ocean too. With the waves making the boat always move around, his accuracy in casting Magic spells was pretty much affected.
Fortunately, he has his Glacier Bow on his back. So, he would still be able to lend a hand nonetheless. With how familiar he was with using a bow, he can always assure the accuracy no matter the situation, unlike the Magic spell which he was still not that familiar with.
*Whooooosh! *Whooooosh!
2 Arrows went directly straight towards the 2 Magical Beast Sharks that has launched in 2 different direction towards Axel.
*Pluck! *Pluck!
”Thank you, Leo!” Axel said before quickly returning back to fight mode.
