The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression Chapter 182: The Sage Overlooks the Naval Battle

I transferred to the eastern part of the territory.

There was a vast river flowing there, sandwiched between forests on its left and right.

A ship was advancing along the river.

With the wind against their black sail, this was the ship of the Demon Lords Army.

Occasionally, unnatural acceleration took place, likely due to the propulsion power attached on board.

That ship was developed for combat, infused with various technical capabilities.

There was also a black shadow slinking alongside, parallel to the surface of the water.

Only its big dorsal fin was seen on the surface.

As the shadow eventually leapt up, it revealed its appearance when out of the water.

The thing that proceeded to open its mouth and attack the ship was a shark enveloped in miasma.

It had a dark gray body surface, reflecting the sunlight and tinged with a dull glow.

That shark should be the beast of the outer world.

The magic cannon attached to the ship fired at it, unleashing shells to explode into the belly of the beast.

Blood and flesh burst out.

The shark twisted its body and fell back into the water.

The region of the river where it fell was stained red and black.

Just as I thought that that would be the end of the shark, it resud its movents underwater without delay.

Judging from its presence, it was aiming for the ship.

They dont seem to be struggling against it.

I transferred to the deck of the ship.

The subordinates were busy working there, constantly reloading the shells and keeping the shark in check.

Their movents were extrely agile, showing that the overall situation was under control.

This was probably the result of the training conducted in the Previous Demon Lords territory.

There was a person who stood at the center of the large group and shouted his instructions.

It was Doldar the Dullahan who kept screaming with his axe held up.

Unleash all the magic you can throw out! Put your worries regarding magic power consumption aside! Once that shark goes down for good, Ill treat you all to special liquor!

A dashing voice bood from the wolf head.

The subordinates responded with loud, gleeful voices.

Their raging offensive attacks successfully held back the sharks attack.

The morale of the subordinates was always at its peak, allowing them to exert more effort than usual.

As expected of a great pirate.

I was impressed with Doldars commanding ability.

His moniker of The Thunderbolt wasnt just for show.

The battle here at the ship was dominated by Doldar.

It seed such a fact didnt change even if his enemy was a beast of the outer world.

Although Doldar possessed amazing solo-fighting capabilities, he didnt rely on that alone.

He emphasized on inspiring his subordinates to draw out all their power as a whole.

He showed a different strength from Henry, who also commanded the army.

anwhile, Logan ca towards .

Considering the situation, he should be Doldars assistant.

As Logan stepped before , he smiled lightly.

It seems you returned safely. Im relieved.

Sorry to have kept you waiting. Ive troubled all of you.

Dont worry about it. We are here to help.

At that ti, a shockwave shook the ship.

It seed that the shark tackled the ship.

Even as the subordinates panicked, Doldars single shout allowed them to resu their positions.

I asked Logan while watching out for them.

How is the situation?

Ill give a brief explanation.

Logan nodded and quickly explained.

The shark had appeared without warning and seed to attack the villages and towns along the river.

As it could freely manipulate its size, it could swim into any waterway, no matter how small it was.

It seed that the shark made use of that characteristic to kill and eat people.

Currently, it has fixed its target as the ship of the Demon Lords Army and has been attacking us endlessly.

It seed quite obsessed with doing so and didnt show any signs to retreat for now.

The troubleso part was the fact that the shark took no damage when it was subrged.

Since it showed excellent regeneration even underwater, it was practically immortal.

Because of that, the Demon Lords Army was unable to subdue it.

Even when we tried to restrain it, the shark would just eat the spell entirely. Its fangs seem to possess the power to dismantle magical composition. Even spirit magic is also extrely ineffective.

Logan complained.

Looking at his expression, his hardship was obvious.

Magic was a powerful ans of attack for people.

Once that is rendered ineffective, the asures they could take were imdiately limited.

The beasts of the outer world seed to have shared characteristics which made spells hardly effective against them.

It couldnt be helped that people would have a hard ti against them.

The shark jumped up again as we talked.

A mass bombardnt was launched, with all shells hitting its target.

As the shark dived back into the water, it returned to the river with blood all over its body.

Although that should have done a considerable amount of damage, my sensory magic detected how the shark swam in the water.

Its movents didnt slow down at all, and it seed as though its wounds were already healed.

Such trendous regeneration ability its got here.

The shark held the geographical advantage in the water.

With the magic resistance and its regeneration ability added on top of that, it has quickly beco an extrely troubleso opponent.

Although there was no fear of the Demon Lords Army to be defeated by it, they were also unable to deal a decisive blow to the shark.

The battle was forced into a stalemate.

As I grasped the situation, I decided on how to fight it as I strolled on the deck.

I could overco this situation.

As I was convinced of that, I thanked Logan for his efforts as I passed by him.

You did well to have endured this long. Leave the rest to .

Please.

In response to the words of my old friend, I returned to the air.
