Chereads / Reincarnated with the Country System / Chapter 46 - A Shadow in the Dark

Chapter 46 - A Shadow in the Dark

The huge turtle began to go into the depths of the sea. Its speed was very slow due to its huge size. The island on its back was sinking into the water as the turtle slowly moved depths into the ocean.

Misthia climbs higher up the tree to avoid drowning.

But to make their situation more worse, Snarltooth begins to emerge from the water.

They bit a sailor's leg and dragged him under the sea. The sailor screamed at the terrible bite.*Ahhhhhh.....* They tore the sailor apart. The sea water turned red with blood. Seeing this terrible event before their eyes, screams came out of the mouths of the other sailors.

A Snarltooth approached Misthia, roaring. Misthia quickly cut off its head with her sword. The head fell into the water and its blood mixed with it. Misthia held on tightly to the branch of the tree. Half of her body was submerged in the water.

She thought about swimming to their ship, but Snarltooth could be anywhere, and this creature was even more dangerous in the water. She can heard their sound

*Swosh-swosh-swosh Gush-gush-gush Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh* (Think of the sound of water being pushed aside by its powerful movement)

{So is my life going to end here? I haven't completed anything yet.}

Misthia was very scared now. The fear in her eyes was clear. Her heart was beating fast. Her surroundings were getting dark, because the fear of death was surrounding her.

{Please someone help me}

Misthia heard the screams of her subordinates. She could also see their ships, on whose decks she could see her sailors fighting. A helpless look was evident in her eyes. As if all hope had been ripped from her. There was no way for them to survive.

A Snarltooth leaps out of the water and opens its massive mouth to attack Misthia.

Its teeth are sharp, its eyes bloodshot, and with a terrifying roar, it charges towards Misthia, Misthia's eyes widen.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still. All her memories flashed before Misthia's eyes, Her family, her friends, her dreams. She felt like this was her last time. Everything in her life flashed before her eyes.

But when the Snarltooth was just inches away from her, a loud noise was heard.

Within moments, the Snarltooth's body was torn apart. Blood and body parts scattered in the water.

Misthia's eyes froze for a moment. Her mind was filled with an incredible feeling. Her heart was pounding in her chest. She couldn't believe she had survived.

Misthia also heard a sound that grew louder.

*BRRRRRRRRRRRRT WHOOSH-WHOOSH-WHOOSH SQUEAL*

She saw a large flying bird flying past her, but she didn't see its wings flap.

Its colour was blue, like the ocean. It created a strong wind as it flew past her. In a flash, Misthia's hair flew back, and her body trembled.

She was surprised.

She saw it rise higher into the sky. As if a huge bird was soaring through the sky, and a louder sound reached his ears. With a terrifying roar, more of Snarltooths were destroyed in moments. As if an invisible force was destroying the monsters.

Misthia's eyes flashed with hope as it had killed Snarltooths, not them.

"What is that?!"

Ridny quickly moves forward and hits a Sharkman in the neck with his rapier. Its blue blood spills over his face. He kicks another Sharkman away.

One Sharkman attacks him from behind with an axe

Then Edith kicked the Sharkman, causing it to fall and collide with a wooden plank.

Ridny looked at Edith, "Thank you."

"But you should get out of here quickly. I'll take care of them."

"But I can fight too! I can't leave you like this."

A soft smile spread across Ridny's face. "Little one, don't worry. I'm strong. Leave them to me."

Ridny gripped his sword tightly. A glint of determination in his eyes. The Sharkmen glared at him, their faces blazing with anger.

Edith didn't want to go, but she decided to leave anyway because she had Hanna on her back. She was also worried about Eric and Gareth.

She started climbing the wooden stairs.

A Sharkman started moving towards her. With his axe in hand.

Then Ridny shot it with the Flintlock.

"Bang!"

A hole was made in its chest and it fell to the ground.

"Hurry up!" Ridny said.

A glint of gratitude appeared in Edith's eyes. "Sir Ridny, thank you very much!" Edith said this and quickly started to climb up.

{Master Eric and Sir Gareth please be well}

A glint of thought appeared in Edith's eyes. She was thinking deeply about them. Her heart was pounding.

Edith came up the stairs. On the deck of the ship.

The sailors are fighting the Sharkmans, but their numbers are dwindling. Most of the sailors are lying on the ground, their bodies clearly marked by the Sharkmans' axes and swords.

Edith sees a sailor blocking a Sharkman's attack.

Then another Sharkman comes up behind her and plunges a sword into her back.

The other Sharkman bites the sailor's head and rips it off.

Blood starts to flow from the sailor's body like a fountain. The blood splashes onto the Sharkmen's bodies and they are drinking it with joy.

Many Sharkmen are cutting off the heads of the dead sailors and she can hear the screams coming from their throats.

Edith's feet felt like ice. She saw a sailor lying on the floor, his skull visible and his intestines protruding from his body. The sailor's eyes were staring into space from above.

A Sharkman is chewing on the flesh of a sailor. His mouth is covered in blood. Several other Sharkman are cutting flesh from the sailors' bodies and eating it.

A wounded sailor rolls on the floor, trying to escape. His eyes are filled with fear. But a Sharkman pulls the sailor's head off with his huge hands. The sailor's head falls to the ground and blood starts pouring out of his body.

Edith couldn't bear the sight before her eyes and boomed.

Then she heard another huge roar.

*Grrrt grumph rumble*

(Imagine the sound of deep bass vibrations in the water)

Her eyes widened in fear and surprise. She looked out to sea.

In front of her eyes, the head and arms of a huge turtle appeared. It was very large and terrifying.

The turtle slowly started to go under the sea and the island on its back also slowly started to sink.

This made Edith very scared

{This can't be}

She shouted at the sea "Master Eric! Sir Gareth!" Tears started to gather in her eyes. Her mind was filled with a deep fear

Then an axe came flying towards her that was thrown by a Sharkman.

Just then, a Sharkman threw an axe at her. The axe cut through the air and came towards Edith. Edith saw it and her eyes widened. She tried to block it, but it felt like her whole body had frozen

But before it could hit her, it stopped in front of her eyes. A huge hand grabbed the axe.

Edith was next to her and saw a huge man that dwarfed her.

"Mr. Butcher!" Edith's face was filled with surprise and hope.

(Mr. Butcher looked like a big sumo wrestler)

He looked injured. His body was covered in blood, both blue and red.

Mr. Butcher looked at Edith coldly. He said nothing. A silent assurance on his face.

He turned to look at the Sharkmans.

The Sharkmans roared at him. They bared their teeth fiercely and gripped their weapons tightly. They were ready to attack him.

A Sharkman grabbed its axe tightly and jumped at Butcher.

Mr. Butcher grabbed the Sharkman by the throat with one of his hands, a look of fear in the Sharkman's eyes. Butcher broke its ribs, the Sharkman fell to the ground with a roar.

He stood up straight after killing it. A cold determination in his eyes.

Mr. Butcher pointed the axe in one direction and said firmly.

"Don't hide and come out"

Mr. Butcher said in a calm tone.

Edith was surprised by his words. Because she did not understand who Mr. Butcher was talking to.

"Kekeke! You caught me"

A man came out of the darkness. Clapping his hands. A mocking smile in his eyes

CLAP-CLAP-CLAP (Enthusiastic and loud)
