Chapter 58: The Arrival of Hanba – Guardian of the Deep
The enormous creature, completely covered in red skin with two thick horns protruding from its forehead, looked like a demon of the deep. It had a human-like body structure, and a massive tail lashed casually behind it, creating huge waves with each movement.
At this moment, the creature gripped the large sea king with one hand and pinned it into the water. With his other hand clenched into a massive fist, he rained down punches without pause.
"Who told you to bully the master?!"
"Look, I'll kill all of you! No one can hurt the master!"
The voice echoed like thunder.
Even while pummeling the giant sea king, the red-skinned figure swung its tail outward, smashing into another sea king that tried to sneak in an attack. The sea king was sent flying, unconscious from just one hit.
"Stop! Stop! I was wrong! It hurts, please stop!"
The wounded giant sea king cried out desperately, struggling to break free. But no matter how much it squirmed, the red figure's grip was far too strong. The difference in strength was overwhelming.
"It's wrong to attack the master!!"
The red creature roared again, grabbing the tail of another nearby sea king. He flung it into the air and hurled it across the sea like a rag doll.
At the same time, one of the sea kings tried to lunge at Mio.
