"It's all right. Let's see what happens first."
Unlike Levy, who was worried, Ul was quite confident. He knew all too well what sort of people the Magic Council were.
Although he didn't know why the Magic Council had come here, if they were also here to capture the demon, then with so few men, they might as well be delivering themselves on a platter.
After the Magic Council's people reached the shore, they immediately surrounded the area and stood ready for battle.
They seemed to have received some sort of warning in advance; every one of them looked very serious.
Splash~~
Just as the Magic Council's forces had driven everyone away, a gigantic white wave suddenly appeared on the distant sea and surged rapidly toward the shore.
"Hey, look! What's that?" Someone in the crowd soon noticed something strange and shouted.
"Hey, hey... No way! Are low-level monsters attacking again?"
"Look beneath the surface! It looks like something huge is about to rush out of the water..." another person cried out.
At that, everyone—
immediately turned their attention to the water. Some of the Mages even began using magic to investigate.
Lahar naturally noticed the commotion around him.
When he saw the huge shadow beneath the surface, his expression changed. He quickly roared, "Everyone, listen up! Prepare for battle!"
The order was given!
The members of the Detention Unit under Lahar sprang into action. They gripped their spears, formed a battle formation, and faced the threat with grave expressions.
"Roar!!!"
A roar like that of some ancient beast came from the depths, carrying an awe-inspiring force that struck fear into everyone's hearts!
Hearing the deep, muffled roar, not only Lahar and his Detention Unit paled, but also the people who had come to claim the bounty—and Ul.
Rumble!
