The moment of truth was right before my eyes. We watched the breakwater that was constructed right in time, and stood its ground against the ravaging waves.
It rained the entire day, and the water level rose, testing the might of the breakwater. Fortunately, it seemed like fate was finally on my side.
Unlike before, when the waters reached the coconut trees on the shore and spilled to the areas beyond it, now, the seas didn't even reach the shore.
The breakwater successfully broke the giant waves and stopped the water from flooding the lands.
"Congratulations, my lord. It's a success," said Athena.
"Just in time before the Blood Rain."
I didn't want to sound pessimistic, but I also didn't want to raise my hopes up unnecessarily. "It's just a one-day rain. We can't assume the same for seven days of the storm."
"As long as the rain doesn't become a typhoon, the breakwater would be able to handle it," assured Athena.
