The Greatest Architect

68.00 Luxurious Completion (2)

Cough… Cough!

This is far from Cremo Harbor.

The waves from the distant seas surge.

A big wave strikes the rocky eye.

However, Gigatitan did not blink.

No, this monster had no blinking eyelids at all.

Glug.

Gigatitan’s eyes bloom between the crumbling waves.

A protruding eye resembling that of a crab or crab.

Both eyes mobilized a total of 16 color receptors from the infrared region to the ultraviolet region.

I observed the sea ahead of Cremo Harbor, far away, with a view dozens of times superior to that of humans.

There you see a creature making Gigatitan uncomfortable to plant.

Glug!

Gigatitan’s mouthpiece shakes violently.

Mermaids.

Definitely a mermaid.

That figure standing overlooking the sea in front of Cremo Harbor is definitely a mermaid.

It was a giant mermaid I’d never seen before.

Glug, glug.

Gigatitan is troubled.

Mermaids were a burden to a 90-meter monster.

The mermaids were all powerful.

And a few dozen to a few hundred.

They also organize an army to hunt on a large scale.

Glug…!

Then we better run.

Gigatitan takes a moment to reflect, shaking his giant head.

There’s nowhere to run.

Once we’re off this shallow coast, we’ll have to return to the depths.

But there was a creature as burdensome and powerful as a mermaid.

It was my tribe.

Grrrrrrrrrrr…

Gigatitan, who thinks of his own kind, wags his tail in an uncomfortable tone.

It was because I suddenly remembered a humiliating past.

Competition between people.

Younger and stronger than you.

Fighting to defend your realm.

However, the humiliation of the day that had to be pushed away was terrible.

Grrrrr!

We can’t go back to the deep.

If you do, you’ll be pushed away by younger and stronger people.

If we’re unlucky, we’ll break our heads and be eaten by them.

So it’s imperative that we stick together.

An old, frail self.

For him, this coastline has been a comfortable home for 10 years. With the exception of not being able to meet mates, it’s a very ideal habitat, where mermaids rarely approach it because it’s near a human large harbor.

Glug-ug-ug!

There is no turning back.

You cannot give up on this habitat.

Gigatitan’s eyes are as big as rocks.

Again, I looked around the statue of a mermaid standing on the sea in front of the port of Cremo and its surroundings.

And I realized one good thing.

Glug!

I don’t see any other mermaids.

There was only one giant mermaid, that freak.

The meaning was clear.

One, a mermaid alone is worth fighting.

Two, we have to get rid of that mermaid before she brings an army.

That’s how Gigatitan decided to fight.

Glug-ug-ug!

The prudent eyes of Gigatitan give off a fierce aura.

I felt the strength in my front legs that I had crouched.

At the same time, his enormous body burrows beneath the surface.

Shoot me!

You hide yourself under the raging waves.

I started sprinting to the bottom of the sea.

It was a beast charge to defend its realm.

That gallop was headed for the Cremo Harbor, a giant mermaid statue, to be exact.

But hundreds of people who floated there and attended the statue completion ceremony were completely unaware of it.

♣

“Hmm?”

Xaviel stopped without even knowing it.

In the glass he leaned to drink, fruit beverages rose.

A few drops of beverage splattered on the noose and engraved a small stain on the scarf.

But Xaviel didn’t care about the stain.

His blue eyes point toward the distant sea.

Eyes narrowed.

He frowned slightly.

“What are you doing? Do you want to go to the bathroom? ”

“ ……. ”

Lloyd’s question from the side.

Xaviel frowns for a moment.

And I struggled with patience.

“I don’t think it’s the bathroom. ”

“Then what’s the problem? I’m suddenly impressed. ”

“Something’s wrong. ”

“Strange?”

“Yes.”

“What?”

“That way. ”

Xaviel raises his hand.

Beyond the Sailor Battleship, which is burning them.

Pointed in the direction of the distant sea.

Lloyd looks at you and shrugs.

“I don’t see anything but a beautiful night out by the sun. ”

“Yes, I don’t see anything. But something……. ”

“What?”

“It’s strange to notice. ”

“ ……. ”

Lloyd tilts his head slightly.

I stared at Xaviel’s face.

He felt it right away.

I can feel something strange.

That didn’t sound like a joke or a joke.

‘Because that’s who Xaviel is. He’s always serious and serious. ’

Lloyd’s expression and eyes became serious.

“Tell me more. ”

“Under the water…… something seems to be moving. ”

“Right down here? ”

“No, it’s the far side of the ocean. ”

“Aren’t animals like whales swimming? ”

“It’s much bigger. And…… it looks like they’re coming this way. ”

“What?”

No way.

Lloyd asked.

“Can you feel how big it is? ”

“Yes, it’s great. By its length, it appears to be larger than the largest depression. ”

“That feeling, really? ”

“Yes.”

“ ……. ”

If Xaviel says so, it’s true.

Lloyd was reliable.

“Xaviel is the one who has the sorcerer right in front of him. She suffers from Swordmaster syndrome, where all of her senses are overly sensitive. ’

So you can sometimes detect the movement of things coming in from the water a few kilometers out.

Especially if its mass reaches tens of meters.

‘This is getting stronger. ’

Lloyd swallows a dry saliva.

An ominous imagination spreads its wings.

Living here in the sea, I can think of only one creature that is bigger than Hoang.

It’s called a gigantitan. ’

I can’t believe that monster is coming this way.

He looked around.

A luxuriously decorated sailboat deck.

Dozens of people were enjoying the boat party on top of it.

On the one hand, the musicians were playing a comfortable song, and they were all sharing their conversation in luxurious clothes.

Someone pours a glass with an elegant smile.

Some people saw the magnificence of the mermaid statue.

Another lover was dancing slowly.

Lloyd’s gaze quickly sweeps through them.

And finally the target (?).

Earl Cremo, who was the host of this party and the owner of the trade town of Cremo.

“You don’t drink, do you? ”

“Of course.”

“Then you’re not talking about alcohol. All right, wait for instructions. ”

I gave orders to Xaviel and moved on.

You dive through the crowd and approach Earl Cremo.

“Haha, this is someone. The main character who laid the foundation for this joy today. Well, welcome. ”

Earl Cremo, who found this way, laughs happily.

And he gestured to the people who were with him.

“I’m so happy I’m late for my introduction today. This young man is Lloyd Frontera, the eldest son of the Frontera family. He’s the one who built the solid foundation underneath that statue. ”

The Earl introduced people with his shoulder between his chin and his shoulders.

The eyes of the old men who appear to be prominent in Cremo City are drawn together this way.

But that’s not the point right now.

Lloyd clears his throat.

“Hmmm, Hmmm! Earl? I need to talk to you for a moment. ”

“What?”

The Earl raises an eyebrow.

It looks like something happened to me.

Lloyd’s voice becomes more subtle.

“Looks like Gigatitan’s coming this way. ”

“Excuse me?”

This time, both sides of the Earl’s eyebrows were swollen.

“Gigatitan?”

“Yes.”

“Are you sure?”

“At the very least, I think we need to confirm. ”

Lloyd said:

“I felt a suspicious feeling about my escort. that something big was hiding under the surface from afar, and it was coming this way. ”

“You think it’s Gigatitan? ”

“That’s the size of the feeling. ”

“Hmm.”

The Earl tilts his head to one side.

I could hardly believe it.

“Have you had too much to drink? ”

“No, I didn’t drink a drop. ”

“Then that’s even weirder. Your sense of security. Can you be sure it’s accurate? ”

The Earl’s gaze turns to the side.

There was a middle-aged knight with a sharp impression.

“Lord Zinovan. He’s my escort and a high-ranking Sword Expert. That means my escort is suffering from Sword Master syndrome. By the way, Lord Zinovan, are there any suspicious sights on the far side of the sea? ”

“No, Lord. ”

Lord Zinovan answered vigorously.

Earl Cremo’s gaze returns this way.

“You see? There’s nothing in Lord Zinovan’s senses. Moreover, if Gigattans really were to appear, they would have sounded the alarm at countless coastal outposts. Do you not trust the boundary system of my city, which has been through Gigatitan for the last 10 years? ”

“Well, that’s not it. ”

Lloyd shakes his head immediately.

And I had a sales smile.

“This is the first time I’ve been in such a luxurious position, and I think my escort and I are a little nervous. ”

“Haha, that’s good. It could be. You’ve been a big help to me and this city, by the way. ”

“It’s an honor to hear you say that. ”

“Haha! Humility too. He’s absolutely right. Have you all seen it?”

The Earl looks back at the city’s leaders.

The leaders responded with a happy smile.

The Earl taps his shoulder with a large, thick palm.

“From his point of view, a warning like that would be a little difficult in this atmosphere, but you can see how much this city is worrying about. Haha. I never thought I’d find such a young man in this region. Today is a joyous day. Again, a toast. Here, you too. Enjoy your achievements today. Don’t worry, I will take good care of the construction money. ”

“I understand.”

Lloyd had no choice but to smile.

‘Oh, I’ll get out of here. ’

The Earl gives you the cup.

I raise my eyes for a toast.

That’s how Xaviel looked at me.

He nods slightly.

It means you’re sure of your senses.

Lloyd secretly bites his lower lip.

‘That’s what the Earl said, and he keeps insisting that Gigatitan is coming. It’ll be perfect for you. What should I do?’

He trusted Xaviel over the words of the Earl.

Even if Lord Zinovan, the Earl’s guardian, didn’t notice anything.

‘Xaviel’s senses will be more accurate. ’

Lloyd recalls the story of the Blood of Novels.

Nevertheless, I could not recall Lord Zinovan’s name.

It means one thing.

Don’t listen to Lord Zinovan until the end of the novel.

This means you will not be able to ascend to the throne of the Sword Master.

Even at the same level of Sword Expert, it would mean that his real skills are behind Xaviel.

‘So, of course, Xaviel’s senses will be more accurate. ’

“Cheers!”

You hear the Earl’s cry.

Lloyd pours his glass and pretends to drink.

Then I quickly greeted the Earl and left.

Inform the Earl of the dangers and the way to deal with the situation has failed.

So from now on, we had to find a way to respond independently.

‘Then what should I do… Oh, that’s it. ’

Lloyd’s eyes stopped in his stomach as he looked around.

You see a thick rope tied to the belly.

The other side of the rope is tied to a mooring iron peg mounted on the ground of a mermaid statue.

The sailboats were tied in place without being swayed by waves and currents.

Lloyd takes a quick look around.

There was no particular view towards this direction.

Even the musicians who are obsessed with playing.

Workers serving alcohol and food.

Nobles and merchants enjoying the party.

Everyone didn’t care about this side.

The situation was similar for all the other boat decks around the boat party.

‘It’s a bipartisan.’

Lloyd approaches Xaviel.

I traded my eyes for him.

I reached out my hand.

He grabbed the handle of the sword he was wearing around his waist. I pulled it.

Shhh!

The Longsword throws out its distinctive cool glow into the sunset.

Lloyd’s pace is accelerating.

‘In a heartbeat.’

There was no room for anyone around me to react.

I didn’t even realize he pulled out his sword.

The rapidly moving Lloyd leaps over the battlefield.

The cement foundation beneath the statue of the mermaid fell.

You swing your sword at the rope tied to its stake.

Chug! Chug! Chug! Heave-ho!

Six ropes as thick as your forearm are cut in turn.

Six sailboats that had lost the mooring line began to slide against the waves.

The people who enjoyed the boat party stumbled in an instant.

The performance was interrupted and the glass of wine that had been served was broken.

In the meantime, Lloyd didn’t stop.

I jumped back into the sailboat.

You make for the rear of the boat, past the boat, toward the stern.

There is a shepherd that pulls up the anchor.

Lloyd’s sword has struck again.

Blah, blah, blah!

A rope connected backwards is cut from the shepherd.

It was a rope that was attached to an anchor.

Docking rope and anchor.

Front and back of the ship.

Both the player and the rope holding the boat are gone.

A large sailboat begins to leap.

I drifted away from the statue by the waves and the tide.

Of course there was a commotion on the deck.

“What? What’s going on? ”

“The boat’s drifting. ”

“Ahhh! He’s got a sword! ”

A wife pointed this way in a gap between the people who were loud.

Lloyd raises his voice as he looks at the longsword in his hand.

But Lloyd didn’t care.

Rather, I climbed into the boat.

He shouted at the five remaining sailboats around the statue.

“If you want to be one year old next year, let’s cut the anchor! Spread out, as much as you can! ”

It was the moment his scream rang out.

It was also the moment when the Earl tried to rebuke me for what he was doing to this side.

Right then.

Kuaaaaang!

A massive silhouette rises beneath the surface.

With an explosive blizzard, the mermaid statue and the five remaining sailboats were violently struck.
