Lord Who Visit Another World

Chapter 75 - Threat from the Sea (II)

The sea in front of me begins to darken like something wants to come up to the surface.

"Get ready! Here they come!"

At my command, the archers on the wall raise their bow and aim at the sea. A few seconds later, I see many creatures coming from the sea.

One of them has a humanoid body. It stands on its two feet, but what makes this monster different from humans is the head of a fish. It also has purple skin and wearing barbaric armor and holding a trident in its hand.

Their height is around 1.5 meters or 5 feet tall. Their bodies were covered in purple scales, just like a fish. They are Lasu-Valu, a C-rank monster that uses poison coming from their scale. The poison itself is not very dangerous. While it can kill you if you get hit by it and not treat it by the span of a week, it is not too dangerous, and there are many antidotes to their poison.

However, this poison has a paralyzing effect if this poison is hitting you too many times.

There is another monster coming from the sea other than Lasu-Valu. It was Xherzul. Xherzul resembled large lizards with clawed, webbed feet and a snake-like head with a gaping jaw and black eyes. They also had four tails, each with razor-sharp spines, which they also used when swimming.

They are another C-rank monster that uses magic. What magic they use can be seen by looking at their scale. Red for fire, Green for wind, Dark Blue for water, Yellow for lightning, and Purple for poison.

The red Xherzul is the creature that many mages seek to unveil its secret about controlling fire underwater.

"Fire! Lucina support!"

At my word, all the archers fire their arrows at the enemy while Lucina accelerates the arrow using her mastery over the wind. I look at the monster wave and look at them being killed by the arrow.

One by one, the monster is dead, being stabbed by the arrow. However, even with the volley of arrows being shot at them, they continue to charge at us. Slowly but surely, the monster marched toward us and ignored their fellow monster that was being killed by the arrow.

When they reach some part of the beach….

…the mine is triggered and explodes. I look at the explosion with satisfaction but frown a little when I see the arrow rain is stopped.

"Why stopping?!? Continue fire!"

They snap and begin to fire the arrow once again. I look at the beach and see the rune continue to explode, killing many of the monsters at once. However, even with the rune trap, the monster did not stop their march.

"Shield! Ready for impact! Spear behind!"

The shield-bearer plants their shield in front of them while the spearmen point their spear at the enemy from the shield gap.

While ordering the troops, I hear something in the distance. I look at the sea and see the Xherzul begin to chant in the back.

"Lucina! Incoming magic!"

"Yes. Leave it to me!"

As the Xherzul finish their chant, a torrent of water comes from their mouth, and it flies toward us. However, before it could reach us, a golden barrier appeared and blocked the incoming attack.

"Twinkling Star!"

After I say that, a laser beam comes from the star and hits the group of Xherzul and kills some of them. However, I did not stop there. I activated my Pale Gate Rune and summoned the Water-Horse.

I look to my side and see the water horse float in the air, waiting for my command.

"Your enemy is in front of you. Kill them as much as you can. However, prioritize your survival."

The creature neighing before flying to the sea. I don't think my summoned creature can fight against a thousand or so monsters, including the A-rank monster, but I know it can reduce the number of monsters that come at us.

"Impact!"

One of the captains shouted as the monster arrived in front of them.

"Archer on the gate aims at the one near our infantry! Hit and run group, with me!"

Because of the environment, cavalry is not good in this fight. There are too many obstacles in the way. There is also the problem with the mine I plant on the beach.

"Lucina! Lead the third group! Group four with me! Charge!"

My men and I begin to charge toward the monster from the side. When I arrive in front of the monster, I thrust my spear at it and stab it right in the head. After stabbing them, I activated my fire rune and burned it from the inside out.

The monster looks at us and begins to split its force into two. The front tries to break the shield formation and the other charges at us. I duck low when I see a spear being thrown at me and swing my spear to the side when one of my enemies tries to stab me and throw it away from me.

When the little shit fell on the ground, I cast a wandless blasting spell and blew it up. I jump high when my danger senses warn me to dodge, and as I look down, I see four Lasu-Valu try to stab me from all sides.

It looks like I'm overextended, making my enemy can surround me. I kick one of them in the head and stab it before blocking the incoming attack from my back. While I can block two spear attacks, the third one successfully stabs me. Lucky for me, it was not very powerful as it cannot penetrate my enchanted body.

After throwing the two Lasu-Valu away from me, I threw my spear, hit the monster right in the head, and took back my spear before swinging my spear to attack the other two. My swing attack cut one of the monster's arms.

Before they can do anything, I conjure water and control it using my Flowing Rune and make a water blade to cut the monster head. After cutting the monster, I coat my arms with the water and let it stay there. I want the water to become my long-range weapon.

I decide to hold my ground while waiting for my men to gather around me. I don't want to show my back against my enemy. I continue to kill and kill the monster for a minute before my men arrive around me.

"We are almost there, boys!"

We do this to annihilate the monster from the back before we begin to run before the next wave of a monster coming.

"Retreat! The second wave is incoming!"

The shield-bearer opens up a path for us to go through. When all of us walk inside the formation, the shield-bearer closes up the path.

"Second wave incoming in a few minutes!"

One of the archers in the tower shouted at us while pointing his finger at the distance. I walk to the wall and see that another wave will indeed arrive in a few minutes, maybe two minutes. My rune trap is already gone, and the spike pit is full of monsters.

It looks like we need to defend in an old way.

*BOOM*

I snap from my thoughts when I hear something explode in the sea. I don't know what is happening there, but I know that my summoned creature is dead.

A second later, I know the reason why my summoned creature is dead.

Coming from the sea is a massive monster. The bodies of monsters were long and serpentine. Its slimy scales ranged in color from dark brown to rusty red, and their eyes glowed with a sickly yellow light. Its size is around fifty meters long, but I don't really know as I don't see its full size as some of its body is still inside the water.
