Ambush (Part 1)

"Master, we have found a giant sea serpent," the captain that had been sitting quietly by the magic compass suddenly said, interrupting the conversation between Lex and Juno.

"Spray magic medicine #14 to chase it away. Do not attack it," Juno answered calmly. The giant sea serpent was a grade lower than the finless whale, but its assaultive powers were incredible. Unless the mission was already over, it would be best not to deal with this monster. There was once a hunting ship that had been knocked over by a giant sea serpent, and four mages and over a dozen swordsmen had died in the tragedy.

The mages in this hunt were of a higher grade and would be able to attack it, but Juno’s mind was not on hunting right now. Hence, he merely ordered them to chase away the sea serpent.
