Chapter 276 (1/2)

This water behemoth, it will be no good should I let it run amok inside the country, and as such, both Mother Aries and I quickly nod to each other before we both team up to beat this thing

This water behemoth, something about it feels, just off... It is getting influence by the fallen god, but at the same time, it doesn't. The same can be said to all that strange mermaids, just what are they?

At any rate, since the only elements that I could use is water, and the water behemoth do have a high resistance against it, I might consider approaching it with different tactics, or at least consider supporting Mother Aries in this fight

With each swing of the water behemoth paws, it summoned along with it a tidal wave, a strong magical tidal wave, and using that very same tidal wave, I quickly turn it into a water spear and attack it. The damage output isn't nearly as much as I want to, but for now, that will suffice

”Freeze dry” [Charlotte]

Using ice attack this time around, I try to experiment whether the freeze dry spell will work wonder against the fight. It does, but the water behemoth also have high healing capability, and thus the damage I make quickly getting recover by its healing power, on the other hand, Mother Aries with her Lance seems to be doing good amount of damage. Her movement might be slower as compared to six years ago, but that's most likely because she is rather inactive after taking the post of the guild master, and thus with each thrust, her speed and strength are slowly coming back

The water behemoth tries to fire off a rapid water cannon at nearby building, but

”Shield” [Aries]

”Oh no you don't! Water ship!” [Charlotte]

With Mother Aries shield, she quickly take the damage by herself, and with my water ship inspired by tales of pirate, I quickly push the water behemoth, making it stumble before having Krakeny bind it

”Large freeze dry” [Charlotte]

Making sure not to hit Krakeny, I use the freeze dry spell once more, and good enough, the water behemoth sustain more and more damage. In fact, I can make out that part of its skin started to peel off, and attacking those areas will deal extra damage, in which case I did exactly that

”Lance thrust” [Aries]

Mother Aries once again, thrust her lance onto the behemoth, targeting its eye, and the behemoth response with slicing her through. It's a direct hit, but one that she could bear off, and counteract by drilling its eye. The water behemoth scream echoes throughout the street, scary and I feel a bit pity hearing the scream

”Help me...” [Water Behemoth]

”!” [Charlotte]

Just now. Was it my imagination? As Mother Aries try to finish the water behemoth

”Mother Aries WAIT!” [Charlotte]

”!” [Aries]

She did exactly that. Confused as to why I asked her to stop, but nonetheless, still do it because she trusted me. Before things quickly went wrong, I should go and confirm it for myself
