Envy II

After defeating the Demon Gods, we gather together and prepare to fight another Demon God. I order Asia to help Medea heal all the servants that fight in the frontline. I look at the Berserkers that fight in the very front. The Duo Heracles didn't receive many injuries, especially my Heracles, as he already reached another level because of the ascension. The same could be said to Lancelot even though he always fought in the frontline Lancelot didn't receive much damage compared to the Fujimaru Ritsuka Servant. Is this the difference between a normal servant and a servant that achieves a full ascension?

I look at Fujimaru Ritsuka servants that have many injuries despite them just arriving through the portal. The one that has the most injuries is Eric Bloodaxe, and the one that has the least injuries is Asterios. That is the most surprising thing I ever witnessed because Asterios is Berserkers that go to the frontline and also the one that protects Euryale from any monster that goes near her. Maybe it's because of his A++ Endurance? Hmmm.

After finishing healing, all the servants, Asia and Medea walk toward Fujimaru Ritsuka and me to check if we have any injuries. After checking that we don't have any injuries Asia and Medea nodded at each other and stood near us.

"So, master, what will we do now?"

Drake uses Fujimaru Ritsuka about the next action they need to take, but before he could answer Drake, the crater in the middle of the room suddenly spews a torrent of water.

I quickly cast the fly spell to all the servants and make them float before they get drowned by the water that just appears out of nowhere. Before we could process what was happening, the world began to change. The earlier gloomy room becomes an endless ocean with a blood-red sky and a cloud with a shape of a skull.

"Drake, Edward, Anne & Mary"

"Roger"

"Aye aye."

"Okay!"

"Un"

After hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's order, the Rider in the Fujimaru Ritsuka group summons their ship. Francis Drake summons her Golden Hind, Edward Teach summons his Queen Anne's Revenge, and Anne & Mary summon Calico Jack. I look at the ship in awe as this is the first time I see a real Pirate Ship. I must say that the ship is more awesome in real life than in the game.

After summoning their ship, the entire ocean stays silent with no sound of the wind or even the sound of the sea. Suddenly I heard a sound coming from underneath our ship before I could warn the other Drake already on it as she shouted.

"BRACE FOR IMPACT"

When Drake said that, the ship began to shake as Big Waves threw us away from the thing that decided to show itself. After the ship becomes stabilized, I look at the Demon God that just appeared. The Demon God has a shape of a Dragon on its upper body while its lower is made of a Tentacles like a Kraken from the tale of old.

"Leviathan, Lord of Water, Demon of Envy, the Devourer and the King of Water Demon"

Hearing Dr. Romani's explanation, I then saw the Lord of Water look at us with its eyes that glow in an unholy way. After looking at us for a few seconds before it summoned a tsunami at our ship.

"LUGH HALO"

Seeing the Tsunami, I took out another Lugh Halo and threw it at the Tsunami. I see that the Tsunami began to evaporate because of Lugh Halo's heat. Seeing that the Tsunami is gone, Fujimaru Ritsuka and My servants began to take action by attacking the Lord of Water.

As some of the servants go and fight the Lord of Water, I hear another voice coming from underneath our ship. We are currently onboard in the Golden Hind while the servants that go on the frontline go with Queen Anne's Revenge and Calico Jack. The servants that stay near us are the Archer from Fujimaru Ritsuka Servant, Jason, Medea, and Anne & Mary. The servants that remain with me are Lily, Asia, Custer, and Muramasa. Valerie and Ophis always stay near me.

All the servants then look around for any enemy that will appear, and a second later, a water type monster appears in front of us. The first creature that appears is the Hippocampus, the horse of Poseidon, the God of Olympus.

"Dr. Romani, why is there a Hippocampus here? I thought Leviathan only controlled the Water Demon?"

"No, Leviathan can control that origin coming from water."

That is worrying, so technically Leviathan could summon any monster… No, creatures that are born, live, or die in the water. Great, just great.

Seeing that many monsters already on the ship, I immediately activated the rune on my clothes, gloves, and boots before I fought the monster that was coming toward us. I look at the first Hippocampus that appears near me and cast Anzus toward the monster and burn it with the overpowered rune and cut its head with my Azoth Sword, killing it instantly.

I then look at Fujimaru Ritsuka that stands his ground with Mash as his shield while he attacks the monster with the Azoth Sword and the Runestone I give him. I must say that Fujimaru Ritsuka is not a bad fighter, especially if he has a partner like Mash that protects him from any harm while he makes the offensive attack toward the enemy.

*ROAR*

I look at the Lord of Water roaring as our servants attack it from all directions and bombard it with an arrow, sword, or bullet. After Leviathan roared at us, Leviathan opened its mouth, and I could see it charging an attack, and Leviathan's target was… Us.

Seeing that Leviathan is targeting us, I order Custer and Asia to try and block Leviathan Beam of Death with their magic.

With a nod, Both of them stood between Leviathan and us before suddenly a huge Magic circle appeared in front of Asia and Custer. Not only Magic Circle, but there are also many runes appear behind the Magic Circle and even in front of the Magic Circle.

After charging for a few seconds, Leviathan fired its attack toward us. The attack itself is like Bijuu Dama from Naruto. It was not a beam but a Massive ball of destruction. I look at the shield that Custer and Asia created as the shield holds its ground against the Ball of Destruction.

After a few seconds of struggling, the shield suddenly moves and redirects the Ball of Destruction to the other side of the ship, where it will land safely without hurting anyone.

After saying a good job to both Custer and Asia, I look at the monster that keeps coming toward the ship, and this time there is another type of monster that appears. This creature is Cetus, the Sea Serpent that Perseus and Heracles slay in their legend.

I look around if there anything that could lead us to the other room. Leviathan is different from the other Demon Gods as this place is its home, we can't defeat it or make Leviathan injuries, so we have time to search for an exit.

I need to search for the exit and let the servant distract Leviathan long enough so we can get out of this place. I look around and then see something different. High in the sky, I could see a door floating. I told Fujimaru Ritsuka about it, and he nodded at me and looked at the servant in the frontline. I guess he told them via Mental Link between Servant and Master.

After a few seconds, all the Fujimaru Ritsuka and My servants arrive in the ship with the other ship, also re-grouping with the Golden Hind.

"We will give the time you need to go to the door. Leave this to us, master."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded at Drake and looked at me. I then cast the flying spell for Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash, and Me while Custer cast the spell to the rest of my servant.

"It's our turn! The King of Storms, a swarm of ghosts, this is the beginning of the Wild Hunt!!"

"Queen Anne's Revenge! Attack!"

"Durindana! Fly away!"

"I offer thee this calamity — Phoebus Catastrophe!"

*Boom*

After seeing Levithan getting bombarded by many servants and getting distracted by it, we began to fly toward the get and let the Berserkers open the gate, and we continued our journey.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Looks like our journey is not yet over. In this bottomless sea, we will meet our end on this journey, but before our journey ends, we must ensure that our master reaches the destination."

Drake looks at her comrade that goes with her on her journey with her master. Drake knows that every single servant will give their life for their master Fujimaru Ritsuka. Drake looks at Leviathan that continues to roar after the bombardment of their Noble Phantasm.

"Fujimaru Ritsuka will reach his destination."

"Oh?"

"Coming with him is the individual that is blessed by the God Almighty."

"What?"

Drake looks at David with a confused expression as he only smiles at her while answering her question.

Drake shook her head and said,

"Let's conquer this sea."
