Reincarnated as the Demon King's Sonchapter 313: deep sea tomb

Aldred waited and waited, but nothing seemed to happen. He looked at Stella, but she shook her head as well. Seemed like she couldn't do anything in this situation. Whatever it was down there, it was powerful enough to prevent a Diamond Rank from peering at it.

Suddenly, his connections with the golems and his clone vanished. He didn't feel their presence anymore, and the memory that was supposed to enter his mind never came.

"What is the meaning of this?"

Other people seemed to realize this anomaly and discussed what to do next.

Aldred frowned. This situation was terrible. He didn't like it when he didn't know something. Even his godly eyes couldn't do anything.

This must be the power of the world itself, which means this must be one of the challenges they had to pass.

"I am going to dive."

"What? No! It's too dangerous," Mary said.

"We can't just wait for something to happen."

"Hey, back in Mount Fargon, we waited all the time for something to happen."

"Maybe it's different this time."

Suddenly a powerful splash reverberated, and when Aldred turned around his eyes widened.

What came out of the water were giant tentacles. Larger and longer than any motherships he had ever seen.

And these tentacles came swinging down.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Numerous warships were cut in half with the sailors within died in an instant.

"Kill that beast!"

"FIRE!"

"Kill it! Kill it!"

All the other ships quickly fired their cannons and dealt significant damage to the tentacles, but right after, the tentacles regenerated as if nothing happened.

Even when Aldred's mothership attacked, the tentacles still regenerated as usual.

"It's a Kraken!" Stella said, astonished.

"You guys have a Kraken in this world?" Aldred asked.

The ships attacked numerous times but the tentacles never stopped attacking.

"Fuck, that thing must have a weakness."

"Big Brother!" Krista called. "Attack the eyes."

"What eyes?"

"It's in the water."

Aldred looked down and realized something. "This creature is deep under the water. Burchard! Send the submarines and aim the cannons toward the ocean."

"Yes, My Lord!"

Suddenly, a tentacle came swinging at him. The tentacle was so large that it covered the sky.

"I will cut you!" Aldred summoned his Phantom Doomblade.

"Stupid! That's a Diamond Rank beast!" Stella quickly waved her hand and teleported everyone inside the ship.

The tentacle crashed onto the deck, destroying a large chunk of the mothership.

Burchard ordered one of the cannons to blast the tentacle. The tentacle made a screeching sound as it dipped back into the water.

And then, all 92 main cannons pointed downward and released shells.

After the barrage, a loud screeching noise came from the deep water.

It was a sign that something was working. Soon after, all the fleet nearby coming from almost all nations, started firing towards the lake bed.

After thousands of shells later, they all stopped shooting and waited again.

Sweat trickled from their scalp, and everything was silent.

And then suddenly, something gigantic rose out of the water.

With hundreds of large eyes on its body, it glared at all the ships.

"Everyone watch out!"

Purple light beams shot out of the Kraken's eyes. Hundreds of purple beams penetrated through the ships and exploded.

The Admirals were of course enraged by this. Their ships quickly counter-attacked and rained the creature with powerful shells.

"GAAKKK!" The Kraken screamed in pain as its body was punched with numerous holes.

Aldred looked at the projection and recalled Krista's advice. "Burchard, aim for its eyes!"

The Destroyer's Fleet received the order and fired at the eyes.

When the shell struck, it blasted open the Kraken's head, and all of its brain's matter was falling like rain.

With a loud screech, the Kraken collapsed with a huge splash.

"Look, there's a large door in the water," Aldred said as he pointed at the projection. Now that the Kraken died, they could see everything in the water.

The other fleet noticed it too, and they used their submarines to dive into the water.

But Aldred had something else. The Devourer, Aldred's mothership, morphed into a gigantic submarine and sank into the water before approaching the seabed.

When they saw that, they rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

"Did that mothership just turn into a submarine?"

"I've never seen anything like that before!"

"Who is Admiral of that fleet?"

"They're from the Ceraisian Empire."

"There's a lot of fleets here that come from the Ceraisian Empire. I need something specific!"

Everyone was in a rush to find out who the man in question was. Who was the owner of that ship that could turn into a submarine?

As they dived into the water, the other submarines quickly gave way and even distanced themselves from him.

Aldred laughed. "Dobbs, I know I can rely on you."

"My Lord, should I destroy the other submarines?"

"Let them be for now," Aldred said. If he destroyed them now, the fleet on the surface would attack his ships.

After diving for a few minutes, they arrived at the large entrance. It was a gate facing upward, and it was closed.

It wasn't a problem for The Devourer though. After a single barrage, the gate was wide open, and the mothership entered the gate.

What appeared below was out-of-this-world. Below was a vast sea with magical corals, seaweed, and a school of fish: small and large.

Aldred was mesmerized. "So beautiful…"

The mothership slowly moved forward in its submarine shape.

Aldred looked to the side, to the circular window that let in the view from outside. A small green fish was swimming by the window.

"Ohh… such a cute fish," Mareona said.

That cute fish looked at her, then suddenly it transformed into monstrous-shaped fish with devilish teeth. It bit the ship, but the teeth failed to penetrate the powerful wall.

Burchard quickly blasted it with a cannon shell.

"Okay… so everything here might look beautiful and cute, but that's simply a disguise," Aldred said.

"We have to make a new rule while we are here. Don't approach anything small and colorful."
