Chapter 492: Interesting Trip
I had been urgently called out of the dungeon and out to the outside of the ship, as I ran to the deck I noticed that the boat was rocking more than usual, but it wasn't until I saw the outside that I understood the point what was happening.
A storm was raging and the sea was raging throwing the ship in all directions, but worst of all were the dozens of tornadoes that were pulling sea water up to the sky.
"(I knew that disaster flag was going to catch us off guard, but why did it have to be something we can't punch?)" (I)
"Sir, I'm glad you're here, my husband needs to talk to you now, we don't have much time." (Carla)
"..." (I)
Carla comes running up to me with an expression filled with terror as she looks at me and then at the tornadoes that seem to be approaching.
"Take me to him." (I)
Carla has become faster since she became a Vampire, but she's still pretty slow by my standards, her fastest was like I was seeing a turtle running around.
When we get to the top of the ship where the ship's control room is I see Marcos and two other of his old crew trying to keep all the ship's defenses active while controlling the ship's direction to avoid approaching these tornadoes.
"I'm here, Mark." (I)
"I don't have time to explain much, so I'll try to be direct." (Marcos)
"Sir, I need to get rid of at least two of these tornadoes to get out of where we are without getting hit, even if this ship is very sturdy I don't think it can withstand this kind of blow for long." (Marcos)
I knew we didn't have much time to talk, I looked through the front window and realized we were being pulled, so I run to the front end of the ship as I talk to Nix.
"Do we have time to call the others?" (I)
"I think not." (Nix)
"Do you think we'll be able to stop a tornado if it blows up?" (I)
"The forces of nature are difficult to fight against, destroying the tornado will only open a window of opportunity before another one appears in its place." (Nix)
"..." (I)
Within seconds I appeared at the front of the ship as I communicated with the others through my mind, we were going to need to be quick so they had to be prepared.
"Which should we take?" (I)
"The two bigger ones, they're side by side, it's going to be a bigger and safer passage." (Nix)
"It will be harder..." (I)
"We will need stronger attacks, but it will take longer for the tornado to reappear due to its massive size." (Nix)
"I don't know if I can do that, I don't have an attack as powerful as your Elemental Breath." (I)
"So instead of using a powerful attack, overload a spell with all your mana, use quantity instead of quality." (Nix)
"Should we start?" (Nix)
"I do, I will need some time to prepare for this type of attack, you will have to wait until the others are ready." (I)
"It's all right." (Nix)
I create five interlocking mid-level magic circles, all of the same magic layering to strengthen an attack that would only be considered mid-level in normal situations.
I also didn't fail to spread my Aura throughout the ship to strengthen myself, Nix, and the others.
After that, I spend the next 2 minutes using every drop of my absurdly large mana on this spell, but some of the mana was leaking out as this magic circle was not made to support such a large amount of mana.
Even so, a sphere of fire forms in the middle of the magic, and a very big heat starts to spread in the surroundings, with every second that passes with my mana flowing into this magic like this, the heat builds up causing the storm water to evaporate before it does. hit me
"(We are ready.)" (Orion)
"They're ready, now!" (I)
"< Explosive Serpent >" (I)
"< Breath of Darkness >" (Nix)
The magic circle layered up to my hand so I get the warning, I tell Nix it's time to attack, and at that moment I point my hand at one of the two biggest tornadoes, the magic circle that was glowing so bright I wasn't even able to looking at him, my mana was leaking because it was too much for a mid-level spell to handle.
The magic circle expands to twice my size and the fireball that was burning my hand with just the heat it was radiating, suddenly turns into a fire serpent whose thickness was two meres, it looked more like a Dragon. than a Serpent of that level.
I found I couldn't control the direction of this magic, but luckily it was heading straight for the tornado.
Nix came out of my shadow that expanded behind me, actually only Nix's Dragon head came out, then I felt my spiritual power being pulled from my body as Nix released a black bolt that seemed to be made of black mist from his great mouth in another tornado.
When my attack hit the tornado it exploded spreading heat throughout the area at the same time it made the tornado disappear, Nix's attack, on the other hand, didn't destroy the tornado directly like mine, darkness spreads through the tornado as it disappears at once few.
"(Now)" (I)
Behind the ship were Orion, Ragnar, and Freya.
The two Divine Beasts were flying by holding the back of the ship to push with all their might when the time came while Freya had prepared her most powerful magic not to attack but to push the ship along.
When the two Divine Beasts heard my signal and Freya saw my attacks, they were able to further increase the speed of the ship in the gap we left while Marcos was doing the same by activating the ship's own spells to increase the speed.
As we passed through the gap that the two tornadoes left when they disappeared, I looked at the clouds where I could see two or three more tornadoes forming as they started to descend, luckily we passed with great speed and continued for a few seconds until it stopped.
Sigh
"This trip is really interesting..." (I)
