Kicking her legs back and forth, Shiro was getting a little bored since all she did was keep an eye out for anything to happen.
*Sigh…
Sighing softly, Shiro summoned a drone above her and started to play around with it.
{Bored?} Nimue asked as she appeared next to her.
Since Nimue was beside her, Shiro quickly camouflaged her mana signal.
"A little. They're doing just fine right now so there's not much I need to do." Shiro shrugged which was the truth. The party had come a long way and after staying away from her for a while, they had gotten used to doing things themselves.
They were doing quite well in not arousing suspicion since they were asking as though they were curious demons who had just come from the centre.
There were a few demons that were becoming a little suspicious, but the party would move to a different part of the city to avoid them and get more information. Even if they were suspicious, there wasn't much they could do.
Talking with Nimue for a while, Shiro watched as the party made their way across the entire city and asking around for information.
By the end of their information gathering, the entire city was suspicious and they now had quite a few guards look around for them.
However, the party acted faster as they were already on their way out of the city.
Seeing that they were leaving the city, Shiro stood up and prepared to reconvene with them.
Just as she stood up, she felt a surge of mana from the ocean as she raised her eyebrow.
"Oh? Are we going to watch the monsters invade now?" Shiro smiled as she sat down with her legs crossed.
"Do you want to help clear it or are you just going to watch the show from up here?" Nimue asked as they could see large groups of demons gathering with leaders in the front.
Looking at the leaders, Shiro could guess that they were probably the queen candidates.
"Pft why would I want to help them out. If anything, I'll stick around and watch what's happening so that I can understand their abilities." Shiro laughed.
Tapping her earpiece, she called the party.
"It seems like there's a monster invasion right now. Do you lot want to watch it? I've got nice seats up here." Shiro asked with a smile.
[Sure I don't see why not. We're not going to be doing anything else anyways.] Madison replied as the other party members agreed.
Snapping her fingers, Shiro made a portal for everyone.
With the whole party on top of one of the defence towers, they looked at the scene.
*whistle~
"Their military is quite powerful isn't it. Seeing it from here is quite intimidating." Madison admitted as Shiro nodded her head.
Seeing the army of level 300's with queen candidates leading them was awe-inspiring. Plus, they weren't even at full power since the higher ranked queen candidates were away right now.
Strangely enough, Shiro noticed that they seemed quite worried.
'Even if they're missing the main candidates, why do they seem worried?' Shiro thought with a frown.
{Do you think it's becau- HOLY SH*T!}
Crying out in shock, Nimue watched as the entire sea seemed to rise up as a giant shadow of a monster appeared far in the sea.
Despite the somewhat weaker mana signal, the sheer size of the thing was threatening enough.
"What the hell?! Why is that thing so big???" Madison asked as she looked at the monster with disgust.
With its giant size, the monster was casting an ominous shadow over the city as the slimy skin glistened under the sun. Its head was bumpy, scarred and deformed with three pairs of eyes looking down at the city with anger. Looking at the seaweed attached to its body and a few corpses, Shiro understood that it was probably sleeping at the bottom of the sea.
While they were looking at the monster, the candidates made their move as hundreds of tier 5 magic circles appeared in the air and long ranged destruction spells were cast.
Narrowing her eyes, Shiro was shocked to see that the mana dissipate upon coming in contact with the monster's skin. Even if the spell was strong enough not to be dispelled, the magic would be redirected to the side thanks to its skin.
Glaring at the army, the monster went onto all fours before unhinging his jaw.
Looking at the mana gathering towards the mouth, Shiro had a bad feeling which only increased with each passing second. Before she could even say anything, shards of light appeared in the sky as they surged towards the mouth of the monster.
*BANG!!!
Fusing into a tier 6 magic circle in an instant, Shiro slammed her hands together.
"Defend against the attack!!" She shouted out quickly as the party flared their mana and activated their spells without hesitation.
Summoning her shield, Madison crouched down as Silvia pushed her palms against her back.
Suddenly, tens of tier 5 magic circles appeared and buffed Madison before she jumped into the sky.
"HAAA!!!"
Activating one of her skills, a huge illusionary figure appeared with her in the centre. The figure wore heavy armour and had a cape which fluttered behind it.
Running forward, she avoided accidentally stepping on any demons before jumping in front of the army and slammed her shield down.
*BOOM!!!
In an instant, a golden barrier wrapped around the city with Madison pushing her shield against the monster's mouth.
While this was happening, Aarim summoned a crystal orb which had several magic circles revolving around the orb.
Tier 5 magic circles appeared around the monster as the gravity pulled against its limbs and back, forcing his head to look up diagonally.
Two portals opened up as both Lyrica and Isilia summoned an array of large swords which descended down and stabbed against the monster but weren't able to pierce its body.
As light gathered around the mouth and the attack was about to be fired, large ice chains shot out of the ground and wrapped around the monster's body in an attempt to freeze it. But with the strange properties of the skin, the ice was shattered in an instant.
However, Shiro's main goal had already been achieved. The chains had managed to pull the monster back slightly so that there is a higher chance for the breath to miss Madison's barrier.
While she was strong, standing up to a tier 6 breath attack at point blank range was still quite difficult. The only reason she told Madison to block it was because she was confident in blocking it.
*BANG!!
Firing the breath, the world seemed to go dark from the intensity of the light.
Shiro could see Madison's barrier hold against the breath for a short period of time before shattering apart and forcing her avatar to be forcefully dispelled.
Thankfully, they managed to avoid total destruction as the breath was aimed up.
Shocked at the sudden appearance of the party, the candidates were surprised that all of their spells managed to bypass the threshold of being dispelled and retain quite a bit of power. While the swords didn't pierce its body, it prevented it from correcting its aim.
Before they could even say anything, they watched as the monster grew two limbs from its back and grabbed the swords before shattering them into two pieces.
"I know I said we should watch the show but I feel like we should help out and kill this thing. I'll be honest, leaving it be would be quite disastrous." Shiro's smile twitched since she had thought that they could deal with it themselves.
However, now that she knew the monster could fire off tier 6 spells and have a strange skin that could dispel magic, it wasn't something she could ignore anymore.
"I agree. While it makes sense that Lyrica's sword couldn't pierce its skin, the fact that it could stop mine as well is rather concerning. I don't know how they could repel something like this before." Isilia frowned since her level was much higher than Lyrica's.
"They probably didn't. With the things stuck on it, I'd say it's been dormant for a while. Regardless…"
"This might be the only challenging thing I face off against in the demon continent." Shiro grinned as she summoned Silvanis.
Flaring her mana, she coated her sword with lightning and disappeared from her spot. Reappearing above the monster, she twisted her body and slashed as hard as she could.
Widening her eyes, she saw a small wound appear on the monster's body as the sea was cleaved in half behind him.
Pausing for a moment, joy appeared in her eyes.
"A good punching bag!"
