Reincarnated with the Country System

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* 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.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

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

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"

His voice was calm, almost soothing, but the tone held an undercurrent of steel. It was the voice of a man who had seen too much death, and had lost all fear of it.

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

"Kekeke." A hoarse laugh echoed, louder than the roaring shores and raging thunders.

Steps came*. . Thud-Thud... and from the darkness, a man emerged.

Its sickly flesh shone—tattered robes across the wet floors. The staff barely held the creature up, as the aged arm yearned to fail.

"You caught me," the man snickered, his voice a rasping whisper.

All the Sharkmans started to stand behind this creature. They stood shoulder to shoulder, their axes held loosely at their sides, no longer threatening, but strangely passive. Their fierce eyes, now devoid of the savage gleam, were fixed on the figure, their entire being radiating a chilling obedience.
