The Strongest Dull Prince’s Secret Battle for the Throne

Chapter 46: Eva’s plea

Winding time back a little bit.

Leo who was accompanying Rondines fleet had arrived at the Principality of Albatro.

To not unnecessarily raise their caution, Only Leo and King Rondines ships enter the port and were welcomed by King Albatro.

I am glad that you came, King Rondine.

I cant afford to stay still in this emergency situation, King Albatro.

Saying so, they firmly shake hands.

It was a historic moment for the kings of countries that have long been in conflict to shake hands with each other.

The fleets of the two nations which were staying vigilant of one another also relaxed a little after their kings met without any incident.

Leo and Elna who met him for the first time are also relieved that they cleared the first step.

It seems we somehow cleared the first stage huh.

Yeah. Its about how we are going to fight the Sea Dragon from now on.

Leo and Elna are following the kings to the castle while chatting with each other.

However, Elna suddenly turned back to look at the sea. Her hand had already reached for her sword.

She immediately pulled it out of the sheath.

Elna!?

Men, be on the lookout!  Protect His Highness and His Majesties! Its coming!

Hearing Elnas order, the imperial knights move in to escort them.

Almost at the same time, a tornado formed out in the sea.

It formed at the center between Rondine and Albatro fleets and swallowed a part of both fleets in.

Everyone turned speechless at the sudden abnormal situation.

After swallowing about one-third of both fleets and turning them into mere wreckages, the storm suddenly disappeared.

Then it came.

The Sea Dragon Leviathan..!?

A Dragon with a long body wrapped up in beautiful blue scales that looked like they were formed with clear water.

It has a pair of wings and arms. Its feet are probably submerged underwater. A dragon that adapted to the sea. Its appearance was close to a snake but too big to be one.

Just the part that emerges from the water is already over 50 meters long. Everyone is shaken by its figure that was much larger and more terrifying than the legend.

uninterested in those peoples reactions, Leviathan slowly opens its mouth. 

And shoots out a giant water bullet.

It was incomparable to what one can create using normal water magic.

Immediately aware of the danger, Elna gave her order.

Evasive maneuver!

The captains trust in the imperial knights judgment and evacuate the kings who are standing nearby.

Elna also escaped with Leo. At almost the same time, the place where Elna and the others were standing was hit but a ginormous water bullet.

Together with a loud noise, a huge crater was formed as if the place just got hit by a meteorite.

Looking at that, Leo and Elnas faces turn pale.

It was not because of the danger to their lives. It was because they realized what would happen to this city if they are going to fight against the Sea Dragon here.

! Elna! Take command and evacuate the people!

Leo! What are you going to do!?

I will get out there on a ship! I have to at least lure it away from the city or this city will be destroyed!

Dont be reckless! What are you going to do with only one ship!?

I have to command the panicked fleets! They need a commander!

They are not our fleets you know!? Moreover, they were people who have been fighting each other until recently if you do it poorly you will get shot in the back from the confusion you know!?

Nii-san took my place and created this alliance for me! I will not just sit back and watch it collapse!

After he said that, Leo started running.

Elna tried to stop him but she couldnt do it.

That is because the second water bullet from Leviathan is coming.

The water bullet is flying over her head into the city center, Elna has to deflect it.

The second water bullet landed near the first crater and created a new one.

I wonder how long I can keep this up..

Elna mutters while looking at her numb right arms and her beloved sword.

If only she can use the holy sword while thinking so Elna started giving out instructions and evacuate the kings and the citizens while defending them from the water bullet bombardment.

Captain! Start counterattacking!

Against that big thing, our cannons would only be like a pea shooter you know!?

Do it!

You are seriously an unreasonable person you know! WE ARE MOVING IN!  PREPARE YOURSELVES YOU BASTARDS!

Receiving Leos order, the captain bring Leos ship into attacking position and fire their magic cannons.

However, that doesnt even leave a scratch on the dragons hard scales.

Still, Leo ordered his crew to keep attacking.

He then picked up the magic voice amplifier.

To Rondine and Albatro fleets in the vicinity! I am the Eight Prince of the Empire, Leonard Lakes Adler! We are luring the attention of Leviathan by attacking it right now! If there are still ships in both of your fleets that are not afraid of the Sea Dragon, please follow our lead! Just a little bit is fine! We need to lure it away from the port! Are there any ships that are ready to sink together with me!?

One ship immediately responded to Leos call.

The moment they spotted Leos ship, they turned their ship toward Leviathan and moved in to support Leo.

Allow me to accompany you, Your Highness.

It was the first ship that stopped Al when he was trying to enter the port.

The first one who noticed that was the captain of Leos ship.

Your Highness! Its the ship from that time!

That time?

Its the ship that came to stop us when we were trying to enter the port!

Informed by the captain, Leo remembered the story he heard from Al.

However, since Al had only said he had entered the harbor, Leo had no choice but to go along with the talk.

The ship from that time huh.

If there were some special circumstances then tell me sooner, Leo grumbled inside.

Still, Leo also thinks that was just how his brother is. If Al did not tell him then it must be something that he doesnt think that it is absolutely necessary to tell Leo.

Theres a lot he is not telling me huh.

Muttering so, Leo is looking forward to hearing it from him.

Al has always been a great brother for Leo. Thats why it was always a pleasure for Leo to hear of his amazing deeds. and tell them,

See, my brother is amazing right.

While thinking so, the ships from the Principality of Albatro are gathering around him.

As if to not lose against them, the ships from Rondine also started to join in.

Looking at that, Leo let out a huge sigh and gave out his commands.

Brave ships from both countries, you have my gratitude. Commence simultaneous attack! Bring Leviathans attention toward us!

Thus, an improvised fleet began firing at Leviathan.

However, Leviathans eyes remained on Albatros capital.

Leo managed to inspire the ships to lure its attention to them but Leviathan continues to fire its water bullets without caring.

At the port, Elna managed to change the bullet trajectory but that doesnt mean that they just went away.

The redirected water bullets land in deserted areas and terraform the building and the terrain in its landing spot.

In that hellish picture, a girl wanders into the Adventurer Guild branch office. However, the branch had already been partially destroyed and the staff was long evacuated.

Still, the girl heads into the branch office.

The remote communication room was in there. It was the place that they used to report the sighting of the Sea Dragon a while ago. At that place, the girl, Eva, gets down on her knees.

Please..pleaseI dont mind who it is..please save my country..if this keeps going, my country will be destroyed! The Sea Dragon will devour our people whole! Anyone is fine..Please save our countryPlease accept the request and defeat the Sea Dragon for us..!

Eva abandoned her escorts and separate from the other evacuating citizens and headed for this place.

She knew that the Adventurer Guild had a remote communication room that can contact other branches. So Eva continues earnestly plead as if she is praying to God.

The only one she can rely on right now is the adventurers.

An SS-class adventurer from the Guild should be able to do something about this situation.

Thinking so, Eva keeps pleading for help.

This act actually is leaps and bound over Evas expectation as her pleas are being broadcast to all the Adventurer Guild throughout the continent.

When the building was partially destroyed, the room has changed the broadcasting mode to the one that transmitted the communication to all of the Adventurer Guild branches. Originally, it was a mode used to make emergency reports of the occurrence of the highest rank crisis situation to all of the Adventurer Guild branches across the continent. Right now Evas plea has been spread across the continent.

Elvas plea was not only heard by the guild staff but to all of the adventurers inside each branch.

After hearing her plea, some adventurers wanted to do something to help her but they have no way of going to the south.

That is also happening inside the Imperial Capital branch.

Damn it..!

Cant we do anything at all!?

Shut up! Even if we raised our voice here nothing will change isnt it!?

What!? A woman is pleading for our help you know!?

And how does getting worked up like this going to help her!?

The adventurers who were drinking their alcohol heard the girls plea for help and cursed their own powerlessness.

They stopped cursing and drown themselves in alcohol, they are waiting for someone to raise their voice.

However, Evas plea is still continuing in the meantime.

Because it was the mode that was designed for emergency, her voice is being broadcast throughout the branch.

The staff also have a sad expression on their faces.

Meanwhile, a man entered the guild. He advanced inside the branch office and responded to her plea.

I will be there right away. Wait for me.

It was an unexpected response for Eva.

She never thought that someone would really respond.

Moreover, he said that he is coming right away.

As Eva was confused about what he meant, a crack form at the space near Eva.

From there emerged a man in a black robe and silver mask.

Who.?

SS-class adventurer affiliated with the Imperial Capital branch, Silver. I am here to answer your request.

That voice was, of course, being broadcast to all the Adventurer Guild branches across the continent.

At that moment, many adventurers cheered upon the arrival of their representatives.
