The Chieftain grinned showing those sharp teeth that seemed too big for its mouth. Then once again swung the staff that looked like it was made of coral.
This time what came was a large wave of wind that swept across the beach.
The wind wave blew the sand up into the air so that it covered Erend's view.
Apart from that, the Sharkman Chieftain also made the sand stay in the air for a long time.
'This Damn shark!' Erend cursed in his heart because he felt annoyed. Not that he was worried.
In the end, did he have to use a Skill?
While Erend couldn't see them, the Sharkmans seemed to be able to see him quite clearly.
He can still defend himself well. And all the weapons from Sharkmans only scratch his skin or clothes without causing fatal injuries.
But continuing to receive attacks without being able to give a proper comeback really annoyed Erend. So in the end he used his Skill.
[ Skill activated: All Fire-based Power (Lv.1) ]
Erend shot fire from his hands around. The flames struck all the Sharkmans that were coming towards Erend at the same time.
The Sharkmans let out a sound similar to a scream from their mouth because of the sudden heat of the fire.
As soon as they were off guard, Erend immediately launched his attack.
He swung the two stone swords in his hands toward the Sharkmans who were closing in on him. Of course, they couldn't do anything about the attack other than receive it.
Blood splashed in the air as the sword that Erend was holding slashed the Sharkmans away. They fell into the sand with various kinds of horrible conditions.
Their heads were severed from their bodies, their limbs gone and their chests split open. Erend attacked them mercilessly.
The Sharkman Chieftain who saw the sight of how Erend slaughtered its warriors has now lost its smile.
It stared with wide eyes. The mouth that was previously grinning with rows of sharp teeth resting on each other is now gaping.
It doesn't know what actually happened. How could such a human-looking figure let out such strong fire power?
Those flames were not just ordinary Magic flames. There is something ancient and very powerful in it. A strange power so terrifying that the Chieftain was unable to think properly because of the sudden jolt of anxiety.
In an instant, Erend had killed all the Sharkmans and left their bodies lying on the sand.
The sight of course also did not escape the sight of the Sirens.
Even Corimia was frowning even more than before.
"(This power…)" Corimia muttered.
She could feel the magnitude of the fire that Erend had just released. Even though he only used that power for a moment to get rid of the sand that was blocking his view, and burning the Sharkmans that attacked him from every direction.
The Sharkmans who were fighting the Sirens noticed it too. Their instincts screamed terror into their brains. Making the Sharkmans feel hesitant to continue what they were doing - or about to do.
Meanwhile, Erend who had finished killing the Sharkmans who were about to come out from the sea cast his gaze around.
But he didn't see any Sharkman near him. All that remained around him were scattered corpses.
All the other Sharkmans that stands a little further from him seemed to hesitate to get closer.
Then Erend glanced at the Chieftain. It is still standing above the sea waves holding it.
However, the Sharkman looked stunned. Erend could clearly see the expression on the shark's face.
'Maybe it's time to give it a few more pushes,' thought Erend.
Then he raised one hand. Then lit a fire in his palm.
As the flames flared, the Chieftain's eyes widened as if jolted by intense shock.
"Go back into the sea and I won't kill all your friends," Erend said in a warning tone.
Words seemed to have a bigger impact than Erend had thought. At first, Erend thought they wouldn't understand what he was saying so he had to give another example.
But it turned out he didn't need to do that. The Chieftain swung its staff. A moment later the Sharkmans who were on the beach walked towards the sea.
Even the Sharkmans who were fighting the Sirens left their battle.
'Good.' Erend nodded in agreement in his eyes still looking at the Chieftain.
Meanwhile, the Chieftain was staring at him with big round eyes full of vigilance.
Erend didn't know what the big shark was thinking. But whatever it was, he knew that now the big shark had recorded his face in its memory. Which means, he was officially on their enemy list.
Yet Erend didn't really care. Sooner or later, he would face them because they were evil beings who would be on the move due to the arrival of The Great Calamity.
So whether they see him as an opponent now or later, it won't be a problem.
After a few minutes, finally, all the Sharkman had returned to the sea.
They retreated with reluctant motions. Their dark and round eyes stared at Erend vengefully. But they knew better not to take the fight any further.
"You," Erend said while pointing at the Sharkman Chieftain. "You better not try to surface again. Or you'll come back with fewer sharks."
Erend didn't know if the big shark understood what he was saying. Even so, Erend was sure that it at least understood what he meant through the look in his eyes and intonation.
The Chieftain gritted his sharp teeth so hard it looked as though they might crush one another.
But not long after, after all the Sharkmans had gone into the sea, the Chieftain also drowned himself in the water.
Now all that's left after they disappeared is the sea water that is calm and reflects the light of the full moon.
