MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 116: The Battle on the Sea



The servant boy dragged his feet through the water while using a bucket to carry the water out of the lower levels.

The ship continued to get heavier, and if it continued like this, the ship would sink!

"Haaah, haaah..." The servant boy rushed up the stairs with a bucket full of water, then tossed the water overboard into the sea.

He immediately returned to the lower levels, but then suddenly the ship started to tilt to one side.

The servant boy lost his footing and tumbled down the stairs, landing in the water below with a loud splash.

His head hit something hard, and a deep cut formed on his forehead, causing blood to trickle down his face.

The servant boy raised his head out of the water, gasped for air greedily, and saw the surroundings spinning around him like a whirlpool.

The fight between the pink shark and the mercenaries raged outside. It was a level of fight that he had never witnessed before in his life.

'Am I going to die here?'

A terrifying thought surfaced in his mind.

Again, the ship tilted to one side as the shark outside crashed into the hull.

A man-sized hole appeared on the hull, with water rushing in at an alarming rate.

The servant boy got submerged again, and because of the wild current, he couldn't control himself and got pushed out of that hole into the ocean.

The servant struggled to swim up, his oxygen rapidly depleting.

'No!'

At that moment, he saw a large shadow loom over him like a shadow of death.

When he turned around, he came face-to-face with the pink-scaled shark with the jaw of a predator. It was staring straight at him.

'No...'

The shark swam through him and swallowed him whole. The servant boy vanished into the mouth of the shark, never to be seen again.

At the same time, several attacks cut through the water and struck the shark from all sides.

However, its scales managed to nullify most of the damage.

Amella, stuck on the shark's back, also seemed to struggle to breathe.

Realizing that, the shark emerged from the water again.

On the board of the ship, mercenaries continued screaming while delivering their attacks at the shark.

"The ship's about to sink!"

"There's a big hole in the lower levels!"

"Lucette, go cover it!"

"Alright!" Lucette ran to the lower levels and jumped into the water there.

Ignoring the powerful current, she found the hole and started waving her wand around.

A bubble appeared in the hole, blocking it off and preventing any more of the water from pouring in.

She waved her wand again, created a bubble in the air, and made the water in the lower levels float up towards the bubble.

The bubble grew in size as more water got sucked inside.

Soon, the water was completely gone from weighing the ship down, but it was inside the bubble that was already the size of a van.

Lucette waved her wand and pushed the bubble out of the hatch and into the deck. She

followed behind the bubble that now floated right above the ship.

"I have an idea!" She shouted and brought the bubble of water towards the pink-scaled shark and dropped it over Amella.

She got drenched even further and almost choked on seawater.

The pink-scaled shark growled in anger and rammed head-first into the hull of the ship. The ship began to tremble as the impact caused a loud creaking sound.

At the depths of the shark's mouth, a pinkish light began to appear that soon filled up its mouth.

"She is about to use her transformation creature's magical ability!"

While the Transformation Magick was already powerful, each creature also had their own magical ability that was unique to them and often unpredictable.

From the shark's mouth, a beam of pinkish light shot out and headed straight towards the ship. It cut through the waves like a hot knife through butter.

"Brace for impact!"

Valora and others shouted.

While others grabbed something to hold onto, Digby jumped off the ship with a sword poised in front of him and appeared in front of the pink beam of destruction.

"Atom Slasher Ultimatum!"

The sword sliced through the beam, cutting it into thousands of tiny pieces and deflecting them in all directions.

As Digby was about to fall into the sea, he suddenly put his feet against the ship's hull and used it to propel himself back into the air with a powerful leap.

"Super Jump!"

He appeared over the pink-scaled shark, his eyes focused on Amella's unfocused figure.

The shark suddenly submerged, and not even a second later, it leaped out of the water with its jaws wide open, flying in Digby's direction.

Its dark mouth started glowing with pinkish light, its large teeth turning pink as well, and

then it clamped down on his leg, tearing through his skin with ease.

"Argh!" Digby yelled in pain as the creature pulled him under the water.

"Guild master!"

"Digby!" Valora shouted and was about to jump after him, but was immediately stopped by

others.

"Valora, don't! It's suicide to fight her in the water!"

"Your guild master is in danger, fools!"

"He can manage!"

At the depths, Digby coughed in pain, and accidentally swallowed tons of water that filled up

his lungs.

The shark bit through his leg and swallowed it whole.

That allowed Digby to finally get free of the shark's clutches.

However, the shark immediately turned around and chased after the one-legged human.

It opened its large jaw and shot out rays of pink light that looked like laser beams. Digby's arms moved quickly, and his sword cut through several of the laser beams, but one of those beams pierced through his waist and left behind a hole as big as a basketball.

His Kiryoku was running at full speed, but he still couldn't do anything against those incredibly fast beams underwater.

'She couldn't use her Kiryoku properly on the battle before, but now she is entirely moving instinctively. I hate fighting against 'Instinct Warriors'...'

Instinct Warriors-a rare breed of mercenaries that can tap into the powers of their instincts

to fight purely on instinct. It allowed them to become very unpredictable in battle, making them formidable opponents.

The shark growled and suddenly turned around and leaped off the water with its teeth baring.

It jumped towards the ship suddenly!

The mercenaries were taken off-guard.

A beam of pink light flew out of its mouth and cut through several of the mercenaries. They were shocked at the unexpected attack, and then the shark's sharp teeth bit through them like

a human biting through a piece of chicken.

Others watched in horror as a couple of their friends died in such horrific fashion.

"You..." Lucette bit through her lip with tears rolling down her cheek, and then she waved her wand, which created a sword slash made out of the air.

The air slash flew throughout the air and cut through into the shark's scales. However, its scales were tough and managed to nullify most of the damage.

"Digby?!" Valora shouted over the railing and didn't see their guild master anywhere.

The shark returned to the sea and submerged, vanishing from sight.

In the dark depths, the shark circled around the ship, preparing for another attack.

At that moment, on the shark's back, Amella's eyes regained their focus, and she looked

around with a horrified gaze.

She was thrown out of her instinct state.

'I see... I now remember what happened...'

Amella felt her chest turn tight as she remembered the events that led to this.

'I should get going... mother is probably waiting for news...'

She took complete control of the shark and started steering it away from the ship.

Her emotions were out of control, reducing her control over Kiryoku.

Thus, she didn't notice that there was a person grabbing the shark's tail and trying to pull

themselves onto its back.

At last, the figure crawled up the shark's back and arrived near her, outstretching his sword-

wielding arm towards her.

At that moment, the sword stabbed through her back, into her heart, and out of her chest.

Amella gasped in shock, causing the rest of the air to be knocked out of her lungs, and then seawater poured into her mouth.

She turned around and saw Digby, bleeding all around the place, but still managed to deal the

finishing blow.

'No... no...no... no... no... No!'

Amella's eyes shook as she saw the darkness surround her vision. She hatefully scratched her

nails across Digby's face, leaving deep gashes in his skin, but then she felt a suffocating

feeling of death.

'No...'

With that one last thought, Amella collapsed into Digby's lap, her eyes dead and lifeless.

The pink-scaled shark stopped moving and started floating back to the surface like a floating

balloon.
