Amy rushed to the edge of the boat and looked down on her tiptoes, anxiously shouting, “Father!”
“Boss knows how to swim, right?” Yabemiya also scanned around anxiously before she pointed at a slowly sinking figure, and said, “He"s there! Boss can"t swim! He"s sinking!”
Gina tore the sailor dress from her body and dove into the water headfirst. A rainbow-colored fishtail appeared as she changed into a mermaid and swam toward Mag, twisting her tail.
Mag thought he heard screaming. He even forgot how to struggle, or rather his body stiffened the moment it entered the water. He could only stare and watch himself sink gradually.
The feeling of suffocation washed over him, but he didn"t panic this time round.
I wouldn"t drown again, right? Even Mag felt this was ridiculous. However, his vision began to get blurry, and he knew this was the precursor of losing his consciousness totally.
In his vision, a giant black shadow was quickly approaching him with gruesome sharp teeth. Obviously, it was a giant shark.
d.a.m.n, System. Daddy is going to die again. Mag"s eyes widened as he tried to regain control of his body. He could move his fingers, but he still felt weak.
“MK48-mod torpedo is locked on. Prepare to launch! 3, 2…” A line of miniscule words flashed across Mag"s mind rapidly.
A huge shark was already less than 10 meters away from Mag. Its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth was open, and its eyes were bloodshot too.
It seldom saw this kind of food, but it was sure that it was definitely more nutritious than those little fishes. Moreover, it looked stupider. It should be more filling too.
“Don"t you dare hurt him!” A slightly shrill voice came from the sea. A mermaid descended from above with a trident in her hands. She slammed into that ma.s.sive shark with all her might.
The trident that was giving out a golden-red glow pierced the head of that ma.s.sive shark easily and pushed it downward.
Scarlet blood exploded instantly, and dyed the entire area of water red.
Mag vaguely saw an aggressively cute mermaid swimming toward him. She grabbed him, and then swam upward toward the surface.
Hmm? I think I"ve seen this kind of development somewhere? Mag felt dizzy, and he wrapped his legs around her instinctively.
“Threat against the Host was eliminated. Launch cancelled…” Another line of miniscule words floated across.
“Splas.h.!.+”
A splash appeared at the surface as Gina leaped out with Mag and landed onto the boat.
All of them were looking at Mag who was hugging Gina like an octopus with a weird expression.
Amy rushed forward worriedly to Mag who shut his eyes tightly, and asked, “Father, are you alright?”
Amy? I am not dead?
Mag regained his wits as he heard Amy"s voice. He moved his fingers and felt something soft beneath them. A familiar feeling awakened his spirits. Maybe it was saved, and he had returned to the moment he transmigrated over?
Then, he opened his eyes and saw Gina"s blus.h.i.+ng face.
Huh?
Mag was stunned before he saw what he was grabbing.
A supple breast that was covered by the school swimsuit was squeezed into an odd shape by him, and he was even wrapped around her like an octopus.
How could this be the scene he was in?
His brain stopped working for a few seconds. Then, he turned his head and saw everyone on the boat looking at him with a shocked expression.
Moreover, Amy was staring at his hand very seriously with blinking eyes.
A weird silence continued for another few seconds before Mag, who felt disgraced and wished to jump back into the sea again, finally regained his wits. He let go of his hands and legs and fell onto the deck with a plop.
All the ladies could feel his pain hearing that sound.
Mag stood up, rubbing his painful b.u.t.t and let out two awkward laughs. Then, he honestly said, “I don"t know how to swim.”
It was a simple and straightforward reason. How could that embarra.s.sing situation have happened if he"d known how to swim?
If he"d known how to swim, would that shark have had a chance to even open its mouth?
Anyway, he just didn"t know how to swim, so he had to grab onto his lifesaver in the water. His posture was inconsequential; he simply had to hold on tightly!
All of them looked at Mag"s pale face, and quickly resigned themselves to the facts. Mag was an ordinary human, so it was normal that he couldn"t swim. Because he was always so outstanding and all-rounded, people forgot about that.
Even though Gina was still blus.h.i.+ng, she didn"t think Mag had gone overboard, because she had felt his helplessness and nerves when she had rescued him. He hadn"t done it on purpose. That had been a subconscious behavior.
Amy stepped forward and hugged Mag as she softly said to his ear, “It"s alright, Father. Amy will learn to swim quickly, and will protect you in the future.”
“Okay.” Mag felt a warmth in his heart and hugged Amy tightly. When he turned and looked at the sea again, he felt the panic in his heart dissipate.
“I"m sorry. I didn"t control my strength properly,” Elizabeth said to Mag apologetically.
“It"s fine. This is not your fault. I am a little seasick.” Mag shook his head. Elizabeth"s landing was much more accurate than System"s, so it really wasn"t her fault. The only problem was that he didn"t expect his PTSD to be so intense that he couldn"t even struggle in the water after such a long time. That was quite a failure.
“Gina, can you sense the position of Lantisde? Is it right below us?” Mag asked Gina. He had to break up the awkward ambience quickly with something more important.
“Yes.” Gina nodded vigorously. She pointed downward, and staunchly said, “Lantisde.”
Gina had felt the calling from down under when saving Mag in the water earlier. She was 100% sure that it was Lantisde. Her homeland was calling out to her!
“Go ahead. Go home, back to Lantisde,” Mag said to Gina smilingly. “I know how to defeat the Nether Sharks. If you need help, we will be here waiting for you and your people.”
He took out a piece of wet paper from his pocket, on which he drew that he was using a mysterious object to chase away the Nether Sharks and disperse the Nether Whirlwinds. He gave it to Gina.
“Oh! There is hope for Lantisde!” Gina had an ecstatic expression after she saw the drawing. Mr. Mag really knew how to chase away the Nether Sharks!
She took the paper from Mag and kept it in her school swimsuit carefully. Then, she hugged Mag agitatedly.
