< Water Snake Fishing >
I think it would be appropriate to use the expression “the car flew” for only about 3 seconds.
Three seconds later, we were floating in the air and plummeting down into the river.
“Eww!”
“Please save me!”
The men in the car were screaming and yelling,
““I’m so excited!””
The kid and the dragon screamed as if they were on a ride.
“Ughh …
I took the wheel and swapped places with the driver who was on the verge of fainting. Even a driver with decades of experience would never have driven in this situation.
Ding ding.
The shape of the car began to change as it hovered in the air. The wheels laid sideways, and the car became longer from front to back, transforming into a streamlined boat.
The transformation was complete before we crashed into the river.
with a plop!
The moment we landed in the river, waves came crashing down on us. I tried my best to go with the flow and not fight the waves.
Swaying.
The boat rocked as if it was going to capsize, but I managed to keep my balance.
But it was too early to relax. Above our heads, a giant tentacle monster was falling, following us.
“Sir! Look up there!”
The little boy was leaning against the window and looking up. I saw the same thing on my monitor. A huge shadow was covering the sky in black.
I immediately started the booster engine.
-Buaaaaaaang!
The boat raced down the river at full speed, and then the tentacles fell behind us.
-Pfft!
With a loud noise like a bomb exploding, the boat flew through the air again. We flew dozens of meters in one breath and fell into the river.
““Eww!”
Wang Guho and Sirutteok hugged each other and screamed.
Anyway, they say the biggest ones are the most scared.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwa!
A tentacle jumped into the Han River and chased us, wading through the water with hundreds of tentacles.
With each movement of the tentacle’s body, waves would rise and bursts of water would fly into the air. It chased us through the water at a terrifying speed.
I said, glancing back through the rearview mirror.
“Everyone, hold on tight. The boat might capsize.”
I steered the boat straight toward the Ancient Serpent. A water snake as big as a building was staring at us with its bright yellow eyes.
-Kiyaaaaaaaah!
In front is an agent serpent tens of meters high.
Behind them, a tentacle is chasing after you, waving hundreds of tentacles.
Again the men screamed and the women cheered.
“We are going to die!”
““I’m so excited!””
I didn’t agree with either, sighed, and turned the steering wheel to the side.
As expected, the Agent Serpent quickly lost interest in us.
Because it wasn’t us who had been irritating the river ruler all this time, but the giant tentacle monster that had ignored his warnings and invaded his territory.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
The Agent Serpent roared and blocked the tentacle.
Soon a fight broke out between the giant monsters.
The first to attack was the Agent Serpent. It bared its sharp teeth and bit the tentacles roughly.
Crunch! Crunch!
As the tentacles were torn off, the tentacles began to fight back. Hundreds of tentacles stretched out and wrapped around the Agent Serpent’s body.
Whirl! Whirl!
The tentacle clinging to the Agent Serpent began to tighten its hold on its entire body. The Agent Serpent twisted its body and roared.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
A gust of wind began to blow around the two monsters, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and lightning flashed between them.
Kwakwakwakwa! Crackle, crackle!
Gusts of wind blew against the tentacles one after another, and lightning poured down from the sky, striking the tentacles mercilessly.
As the two monsters locked in a shocking fight, the Han River began to shake violently like a boiling pot.
I drove the boat to a safe distance and then shook the body of the half-conscious driver, Park Young-bae.
“Sir, take the wheel again. Don’t be afraid and cross the river. Got it?”
“···Ugh. Then, what about the team leader?”
I explained the entire operation earlier, but it seemed like the driver didn’t hear it because he was focused on driving.
I unbuckled my seatbelt and looked out the window.
Kwarrrrung! Kwarrrrung!
The sight that unfolded across the Han River under the night sky was horrifying to say the least.
In the red fog, loud noises and roars erupted one after another, gusts of wind blew and lightning struck.
If you’re in your right mind, it would be best not to go near there.
But I was going to go in there.
Because you won’t get another chance like this.

“We have to catch them. Is everyone ready?”
When I looked back, the little boy in the yellow wetsuit was the first to raise his hand.
“Ready!”
Abraxas nodded with a face full of anticipation, and Wang Guho and Sirutteok answered with pale faces, “Yes…”
“Okay. Then I’ll go first.”
I nodded and opened the car door, carrying the harpoon on my shoulder. At the same time, I used the Guardian’s bracelet to create an oxygen helmet with a shield and put it on.
“shield.”
Woohoo!
I dived straight down into the river.
The river was swirling with rapid currents. I saw colorful fish reminiscent of tropical fish and all sorts of underwater monsters that do not exist on Earth.
The guys were running away in all directions, hiding from the fight between the two giant monsters. I swam in the opposite direction from them.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
‘Big···!!’
As I got closer, the strong current pushed my body away. I raised my Pacheonshinkong and protected myself with the spirit of Dreitz as I continued to swim.
How far did they go? They saw two giant bodies colliding like mountains in the water.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
“······.”
I closed the distance while making as few sounds as possible. I had been using [Stealth] since a while ago.
If it were normal, I wouldn’t have been able to completely hide my presence like this.
But the two monsters were now engaged in a fierce fight, and they couldn’t help but focus on each other.
I took advantage of that gap to approach.
chin.
Finally, I managed to catch the scales of the Agent Serpent. I stuck my head out of the water and whispered into the ear mic.
“We’re here. What about you?”
The little boy’s cheerful voice was heard from beyond the ear microphone.
[We’ve arrived too! Let’s start right away?]
“Wait a little longer···.”
-Kiyaaaaaaaah!
“···You can do it now. Start.”
The fight between the two monsters, which seemed tight at the beginning, was gradually becoming one-sided.
Crunch! Crunch!
Agent Serpent, with the home ground advantage, used gusts of wind, lightning, and waves to destroy the tentacles’ tentacles.
The tentacles continued to regenerate tentacles and fight back, but the speed was noticeably slower than before.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
The Agent Serpent, sensing victory, took a big bite out of the tentacle. Crunch! Dozens of tentacles were caught in its teeth and torn off, and the tentacle writhed in pain.
In the meantime, I hung on to the Agent Serpent’s back and slowly, little by little, climbed upward.
Crunch! Crunch!
The tentacle’s gigantic body was collapsing under the repeated attacks of the Agent Serpent.
The moment that decides the winner and the loser.
That’s when the river water began to boil.
Bubbling.
Bubbles began to rise little by little above the water’s surface, and soon the entire river began to boil.
Bubbling, bubbling!
A cloud of steam rose from the river. Fish cooked in the water and underwater monsters capsized and floated to the surface.
Even the Agent Serpent was startled by the sudden change in temperature.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
A scream as if it were going to tear apart the water. The creature looked around, trying to find the culprit who had changed the water temperature.
The culprit was talking to me right now.
[Sir, should I make it hotter?]
‘Do it in moderation. Then I will get used to it too.’
It was, of course, thanks to the kid that the crazy plan to boil the river became a reality.
I spoke quietly into the ear mic.
‘Signal flare fired.’
[firing!]
A moment later, sparks exploded like firecrackers across the fog.
Pubbubububu!
Seeing that, the Agent Serpent began to swim through the water and head towards the flames.
The red fog, combined with the massive amount of water vapor, made it difficult to see beyond a few meters.
Besides, the water was hot, and the ripe fish floating on the river were blocking the swimming, so the Agent Serpent couldn’t help but get angry.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
And I held my breath and just hung on to the bastard’s back.
“······.”
He waited until he was almost to the other shore, when he spotted the boy and the others.
After a while, the Agent Serpent spotted our group standing on the riverbank and let out a roar.
Kiyaaaaah!
Lightning gathered in the sky, gusts of wind blew, and the creature opened its large mouth wide towards the group.
At that moment I started running.
Tadadadot!
The startled Agent Serpent tried to shake me off, but I was already almost at the back of his head.
I untied the harpoon I had been carrying on my back and infused it with all my magical power.
Woof woof woof!
A river grew about a meter above the spear.
There was no time to hesitate.
I just drove the harpoon straight into the back of the bastard’s head. The harpoon went deep through the scales and skull.
Kkudduk.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
Lightning struck around me, accompanied by a terrible roar.
Woofwoof- Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the same time, a huge gust of wind hit my body, trying to blow me into the sky.
I held on to the harpoon tightly and hung on tightly so as not to fall.
“Ugh!”
I already knew how tough that guy was.
No matter how hard you thrust the harpoon, it cannot penetrate the scales and skull and reach the brain in one go.
However, once the hook is inserted to this depth, it is up to the angler to decide what to do.
I shouted at the group.
“Throw the rope!”
Wang Gu-ho, who was twirling a steel rope over his head, threw the rope to me.
Phew!
The rope flew at me on a trajectory that seemed to take me more than a meter away. I screamed.
“I don’t want to do it right!”
“sorry···.”
At that moment, Abraxas’ lips uttered a spell, and the rope entered my hand like a living snake.
Whirlyrick!
I grabbed the rope and shouted in a voice full of joy.
“As expected, a great dragon!”
“Huh. Only at times like this?”
I smiled and attached the steel rope to the end of the spear.
With a snap, the rope was connected to the harpoon. From then on, we began a tug-of-war with the giant water snake.
“Pull it all the way!”
The king turtle, which had grown to be 5 meters tall, planted both feet firmly on the ground and stood firm like a stake, while the rest of the turtle helped out.
Kiyaaaaaaa!
The Agent Serpent struggled and tried to get back into the river.
But the harpoon firmly embedded in the bastard’s skull did not come out easily, and I was still standing next to him.
“Where are you running away to?”
I held the harpoon firmly in my left hand, held the shallit in my right hand, and struck the back of the Agent Serpent’s head with it like an axe.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
The scales, which were almost incomparably hard, were torn apart by the attack of the magic sword wrapped around them.
The scales broke and the flesh was exposed, and when I tore the flesh, blood flowed out. I didn’t stop chopping.
Kwajik! Kwajik! Kwajik! Kwajik!
As I continued to knock on its head, the Agent Serpent staggered around, unable to come to his senses. The lightning and gusts of wind that were pouring down from all directions also gradually weakened.
Kieeeeeeee···.
If things were normal, it would not have been possible to hunt the Agent Serpent so easily.
No, it would have been difficult to even get close.
“It’s all thanks to you.”
I looked at the boiling tentacles in the middle of the Han River and shouted to the group.
“Let’s finish it now!”
I raised the sword with both hands and poured all my remaining magical power into it to create a strong energy.
Wooooow!
And then he thrust his sword into the back of the Agent Serpent’s head, which was half-holed.
Phew!
After a while, we pulled the Agent Serpent to the shore with a large hole in the back of its head.
*
In fact, dismantling took longer than hunting.
Because it was such a huge thing, I had to be careful when looking for parts to take care of.
I removed the scales from the hardest parts, and the eyes, teeth, and horns that were worth studying. I didn’t need much of the flesh, and only took a water jugful of blood.
Even if we just convert what we’ve collected so far into money, it would be enough to cover several years’ worth of the guild’s income.
“Let’s just take the important things first, and pack more when we get back.”
I formed a formation around the remaining corpses, and Abraxas cast a preservation spell.
“Whew… It’s almost finished.”
That was the last time I pulled out the fangs of an Agent Serpent.
“mister!”
The little boy who went inside the Agent Serpent’s stomach, wondering what it was like, ran towards me holding something.
As if he had found some kind of treasure, the little boy showed me what he had found.
“Look at this! I found it in there!”
It was oval-shaped, about the size of a small child’s torso. It was bright silver, and it looked soft rather than hard.
“You know, right?”
The little boy who found the egg in the stomach of the Agent Serpent looked at me with his eyes wide open.
“Let’s grow this!”
I asked back with an expression of utter disbelief.
“Not for eating?”
