"He went under the sea," Negris replied.
"What! Under the sea? In these waters?" Doroc asked, startled and eagerly.
"Yes, he went down from the pool. Is there a problem?" Negris said.
Doroc spoke anxiously, "There's a group of sea serpents in the sea around here. They are enormous, and even I don't want to provoke them when I'm alone. It's easy for your lordship to run into them in the sea."
Negris asked calmly, "Sea serpents? Do they know magic?"
Doroc shook his head, "No, they don't."
"So, are they fast swimmers?" Negris asked.
"They're not. If they were, we would have moved away a long time ago. Who would dare to live here?" Doroc replied.
"How big are they?" asked Negris again.
"The biggest one is over thirty meters long," Doroc said.
Negris was nonchalant, "Only over thirty meters? Don't worry then. A magic-less beast I've seen was a hundred meters in length. In the water, without some special ability, they can't catch up to Ange."
