I look to where that bad feeling is coming from, and see the usual calm sea. There’s nothing strange there, just a beautiful vibrant sight.
…But alarm bells are ringing inside me. What is this feeling? What is going on?
“Master? Do you feel something from the sea?”
“I can’t confirm it, but I feel a bad presence.”
“I see. I expected you would.”
Aira gets up, and takes my equipment from her bag. I have questions as she hands it to me, but take it and put it on.
“Miss Takane and Miss Yukine, do you feel anything?”
“Eh? Nothing inside my detection range… Do you, brother-in-law?”
“Master has a very sharp intuition.”
“Is that so? Then should we also get ready? What do you think, Takane?”
“Let’s call various places when we make visual contact.”
“Okay.”
Apparently these three know what this strange atmosphere is all about.
Maki and Ayane are the opposite, clueless and worried, so I hold them to reassure them.
“The safest place in the world is next to me.”
“Shouta… Yes!”
“Hehehe, darling~.”
There there.
“Aira, could it be…”
“Oh, Miss Aki, have you figured it out?”
“Did you… Withhold information!?”
“It was not confirmed. Also, do you not think it is good to confirm that master’s senses function even when he is completely unconcerned?”
“I guess…”
Says Aki, who has apparently reached some sort of conclusion.
I still don’t know anything. Should I ask…
“…!!”
No, that’s not what I have to do now.
My strengthened vision can see all the way to the horizon. And what is over there is not a creature that exists on the surface…!
“Vision Sharing.”
‘Popo?’
“Enril, move three kilometers in that direction!”
‘Popoh!!’
“Hawk Eye!”
Hawk Eye moves my point of view above, allowing me to see through obstacles to spot monsters. It activates even when I’m connected to Enril, and when combined with Vision Sharing, it splits my vision into four.
I block my point of view and the one above me as much as I can, and focus on Enril’s side. And I shudder at what I see.
“…So many…”
Dozens, no hundreds of monsters are pushing this way.
There is only one reason why I would see such a sight on the surface.
It’s a stampede!!
“Piiiiii!!”
I whistle for Enril to return, stop the skill, and take a deep breath. And then, I think about the forms of the monsters based on the shadows I see, and how to take them down. The swarm is slow, and it should take twenty minutes to get here.
About seventy percent is fish-shaped, leaving thirty percent of land ones. I look back to think about where to fight, and see Aira retrieving everything to set up the now empty beach.
“What do you see, master?”
“A stampede of hundreds. Let’s slaughter them here.”
“Understood.”
“Maki and Ayane…”
“I will fight. I am not powerless like eight years ago.”
“I will also do my best!”
“Okay, just don’t over do it.”
I hold them again and step back a little. There are so many monsters, that we might as well take the opportunity to level up.
“Enki, dome form!”
‘Gogo!’
As before I faced Gadaga, I roll the gacha inside Enki.
My sisters-in-law are here, and the monsters out there might detect it and attack from a distance, so I need protection from both.
I roll the gacha, and spend twenty capsules worth of levels.
Clank claaaaaank!
I get two blacks, four whites, eight greens, and six purples.

‘20/100 remaining’
It’s probably because of the training, but I feel like the skills I’ve been using were emphasized.
I also found a new rarity from the black capsules, BR. Is it black rare? And I got my fourth special skill from one of them. Hand of Sorcery?
I feel like I know how to use it if I picture it but… I think this might be even stronger than Double, depending on how I use it. But I don’t think it’s suited for this battle.
I’m curious about Automatic Mapping β, but I’ll check it after the battle. We need to clean up the incoming presences first.
