Acht tried to look up to see the hegemon that appeared out of the water. His neck arched up as much as he could yet he still couldn't see its full body.
The even horrifying revelation is that the monster wasn't fully out of the water with a good part of its body still submerged in the sea.
As he tried to assess the situation, a huge rain came down on him violently. Then, a huge wave came rushing towards him, intending to send him back into the deep.
"Tsk!" He clicked his tongue with a cold look and immediately used gravity manipulation.
Then, he made himself float before going up to avoid the wave. He looked under him and the area had turned into a chaotic mess of waves clashing against each other.
Then, as if this was not enough, the sea king fish bent down and threw itself on Acht. The whole world around him suddenly turned dark and the sun was totally covered.
He didn't wait for even a second as he flew to the side, barely avoiding the monster.
Its huge body fell down on the water surface, creating a loud noise akin to a bomb.
A huge explosion of water, high enough to reach 100 meters in the air, hit Acht who couldn't avoid it. The strong pressure from the water was akin to a Cannonball hitting him square in the stomach.
His body was then sent flying away before crashing on the water's surface, slowing his speed.
"Fuck!" He cursed loudly as he stabilized himself, floating in the water.
Now that he is far away, he could see the huge bulge in the water surface that was the monster. He could also see it going down slowly before completely disappearing underwater.
"Hey, are you ok?" He spoke to Lein through the communication device to see if she was alive or not.
Luckily, a calm voice responded to him.
"Yeah. But, this fucker is still targeting us. I don't know why is it so fucking outraged." She said,
"It was fighting with another monster, that's probably the reason why." He responded as he tried to squeeze out an idea to get them out of this problem.
Fighting this creature was out of the question since it was way too strong and huge to be even fought. He also couldn't escape since its speed alone would make it capable of reaching them in a matter of moments.
So, the last solution he had which was also stupidly hard is to make the monster calm down and leave them be. That however posed one single question, how would he do that?
Truthfully, he had no idea how to do that. But, he had one single suspicion.
'This creature isn't angry because of the previous fight.' He thought.
It was indeed weird why this monster was still angry even though the fight should be already over.
So, to at least try and find the reason why he had to examine the monster's whole body.
"I have an idea and I need your help. I want you to make the monster target you." He said to Lein.
"Huh, why the fuck would I do that?"
"You have no other choice. Either cooperate or we both fucking die." He responded harshly.
"Tsk, fine! How long is it going to take?" She asked.
"1 minute…no, 30 seconds is enough. I want you to make it completely forget about my existence for 30 seconds."
"This is hard but I will try. Hurry your ass up." She responded before cutting the line of communication between them.
Immediately, from far away, he could see Lein's silhouette coming towards the monster that was moving underwater searching for Acht.
Then, when she reached a certain point, she stopped and created a huge lightning ball in both of her hands.
After that, she threw the lightning bolt into the water, penetrating the surface and going deeper and deeper in a matter of moments.
The silence lasted for a moment before a loud sound came from underwater.
*BOOOMMM*
The water rose up into the sky before going down immediately.
"RAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
A loud roar came from the deep that almost created a shockwave was it not for the fact that it was underwater.
Acht watched the scene patiently. He could see how the monster changed its aggro and went back swimming toward Lein who immediately started swimming away.
Her speed was faster than any sea creature. But, she wasn't able to create any distance between herself and the monster.
"Good, keep it like that."
Acht muttered as he dived back into the water and followed the monster sneakily.
He needed to end this as fast as possible or his and Lein's end was set in stone.
"Dammit!! The shit I have to fucking do." Lein cursed as she moved as fast as could.
The monster was closing up on her and it was also rising up to the surface. She could tell that the sea king fish was intending to lunge on her with one single leap to shred her to pieces.
So, to slow it down, Lein charged up all of her body with a strong voltage of lightning and then spread this electricity-like power into the water around.
Luckily, she was swimming in salty water so the conductivity was extremely high.
In a matter of seconds, the monster was electrocuted and stopped for a moment to recuperate.
Lein used that moment to move away a good distance from the monster.
"RAAAAAAA!!!" The sea king fish was extremely outraged at this point as it rushed madly at Lein.
"Hurry up, little shit!!" She shouted.
Her time was running up and she could barely keep up for a few more seconds. All she had in hope was Acht succeeding in his plan.
But, unfortunately, she couldn't keep up the pace any further and the monster finally reached her.
Then, it opened its huge mouth that was the size of a whole block intending to swallow Lein.
"RAAAAAA!!!"
