Chereads / Monster hunter king / Chapter 4 - Bloodbath of Sirens

Chapter 4 - Bloodbath of Sirens

The sea was calm and the wind blew gently but in a blink of an eye the clouds turned dark and the waves begun to gush violently disturbing the peace on Williams boat

The storm begun to knock the boat of it's course

But the storm was rapidly getting worse and the boat was getting weaker from the strong waves leaving the crew with no control over the boat

Few crew members became sea sick so they desperately tried to maintain their grip as the sea became aggressive and violent but suddenly Williams noticed the sea creatures were all leaving the area in a panic

Van Helsing who was fast asleep woke up due to the turbulent boat

Williams knew something was chasing after the creatures with an incredible speed but he wondered what it could possibly be

Then Williams spotted a creature heading towards the boat but he failed to get a clear description of the creature since it was totally immersed in the sea

Everyone grab a hold of something! Williams yelled warning them of an impending collision

The crew members held tightly to the boat to prevent them from being tossed around as an impact with the monster shook the boat affecting their balance

But the wind and the waves became exponential, disturbing the stability of the boat

Williams was knocked off the boat but fortunately for him, his claws finally extended to help him cling unto the boat

I need help? Williams said

He clinged unto the boat like a bat, his body being bounced around with the boat by the wind

Williams was slowly losing his grip and was about to plunge into the sea facing the unknown monster

Van Helsing, I need help as Williams called out to him

Van Helsing knowing Williams could possibly drown quickly rushed to him

He moved agilely avoiding any debris to reach Williams

Williams lost his grip and began to plunge but then Van Helsing's eyes changed from a light brownish colour to an extremely intensive reddish colour

He leaped and grabbed the wrist of Williams without hesitation for his own safety

Ha!

Is everyone Okay, Williams breathed in a sign of relief

Yes, captain.The crew members including Van Helsing responded

The ship gradually levelled as the violent storms begun to cease

Where is it? Van Helsing furiously since he was disturbed from his nap and almost killed

The mysterious monster fled the area

Huh!!!

One of the crew shouted

The rest of the crew rushed to him to know what was happening

Williams went to him to ask what was happening since he was curious

But the man begun to stammer and shake, his eyes wide open as if his soul had been taking away

Williams tried his very best to make him speak when Van Helsing directed his attention to the sea

He stood still in disbelief, baffled at the amount of blood appearing on the surface of the sea

B.. Bo..Bodies! said the stammering man as he fell over, he was overflown with fear

Williams stared at him and then he directed his attention back to the sea of blood when he saw hundreds of bodies rising to the surface of the sea

They look like humans and their all females said Williams

No! we need to leave now! yelled Van Helsing

What the hell is going on? Williams asked

They are not humans but sirens and they will attack us! said Van Helsing as he rushed to steer the boat

Why? They are all dead

Exactly, sirens rule this part of the sea so if they find their dead members they will stop at nothing to find the culprits behind it and unfortunately for us, we will be suspects since we're in the area

But why would they attack us? asked Williams

Sirens are peaceful creatures but when they are threatened or even under attack they become vicious and cruel, killing anything in sight so we are just in it's killing zone said Van Helsing

Who or what could have the guts to kill this many sirens in their own kingdom

So what do you think attacked them?

I don't know but for now we need to leave before they find us
