Now that the monitoring devices were in place; Blake wasted no time leaving the ocean and returning to land.

Throughout the short journey back to land, the feeling of something appearing out of nowhere and swallowing his ship whole continuously disturbed him. It was only when his shoes touch the sand of the Sunset beach that he let out a sigh of relief.

"Now that is down, it is time to keep an eye on the monitoring devices." 

The entire group quickly returned to the Square where ash corps constantly monitored the live footage from the monitoring devices.

'I wonder how long I would have to stay without finding anything before the case gets handed to someone else.' Blake thought after more than 3 hours of watching one of the screens connected to the monitoring device.

[Most inhabitants of Coastville heavily depend on Ocean Tribirus for a lot of things, same with the city's revenue. So, I say 1-week tops and the protest from the citizens will get you off the case.] The system said.

'I feel that is way too much. The case has already gone on for a week, so I will say 5 days of no progress.' Blake thought.

[I change my mind, make that 4 days.] The system said as the head of the investigations department walked toward him with a deep frown on his face.

"Major Blake, I would like to know how certain you are that this would work?" The head asked with an unchanged expression.

He was receiving a lot of pressure from both the city lord and Coastville's head of the Ash corps to discover the cause of the problem. On realizing that Blake was doing exactly the same thing he did, and had still come up with nothing yet; he had to approach him and convince him to do something different.

'Waiting for him to be taken off the case would take quite some time, and even if the next person is guaranteed to solve the case it wouldn't be done instantly. I don't have that kind of time!'

"I am not." Blake replied without a change in expression.

"Then why are you still taking the same approach that didn't work?" The head asked with an even more annoyed tone.

"I have 2 reasons for doing so. To begin with, what if you guys didn't do it right?" Blake asked with one of his brows raised. "I mean the Tribirus Ocean is very large, so there is a high chance that you guys didn't place the monitoring devices at the right places and at the right time."

"Then it is a matter of luck for the beast to enter the sight of the monitoring devices." The head of the investigation department defended himself.

"Luck is also a part of being a good investigator." Blake replied before continuing. "The final reason for doing the same thing is that I don't have any other options."

"The storms are being caused by an emperor-rank beast, and since I didn't awaken the water element. It is impossible to even try and perform a miracle. So unless an Angel or someone stronger is sent to help us, this is the only thing we can do. That is unless you have another viable option?" Blake asked.

"…"

While the city's head of the investigations department was busy thinking of a reply to Blake, the alarms of 6 of the monitoring devices went off.

"The devices got something." One of the ash corps reported causing Blake and the head of the investigations department to rush over.

The live footage displayed parts of a very long blue snake-like body with a scaled, slimy texture and a series of golden spiked fins along its length that help it move through the water.

'I am surely not going anywhere close to that.' Blake secretly thanked the heavens that he was already out of the water.

"We are dealing with an emperor rank sea serpent." 

As the head of the investigation department was speaking, the never-ending body of the gigantic Sea finally stopped and a large snake head appeared in front of one of the monitoring devices.

"Is it me or is the beast smiling?" An Ash Corp couldn't help but ask as a smirk appeared on the sea serpent's face, but instantly all the monitoring devices simultaneously went off.

"It is taunting us." The head said.

The monitoring devices were made of a power source and multiple arrays, meaning that an emperor-ranked beast would be able to sense their positions from miles away. So, for it to appear right in front of 1 and smirk meant it was taunting them.

"I will report the situation to Colonel Darius." Blake said as he left the room to call the Colonel.

"Major Blake, have you had any breakthroughs in the case?" Colonel Darius asked.

"Yes sir, we have discovered the presence of an Emperor rank sea serpent not too far from the walls." Blake reported everything including how the beast taunted them, causing Colonel Darius to slightly frown.

"This is either a trap or the emperor rank beast is really confident in its strength." Colonel Darius chuckled. "2 Angels from the Capital will arrive at Coastville in 24hrs to deal with the problem. You and your team as well as the officers in Coastville will assist them in case something unexpected happens."

Angels were very important figures and had a lot of responsibilities. Mobilizing 1 talk less of 2 would take some time.

"Alright, sir." After Blake ended the communication link, he began cursing the heavens and Colonel Darius.

'How the hell can a Hero assist in a fight between Angels and an Emperor-ranked beast?!'

'He should just say he wants to get me killed before my time!' Blake felt his head hurt as he thought of returning to the ocean and being so close to the Sea serpent.

"I am surely dead." Blake let out a helpless sigh and returned to break the news of backup arriving the next day.
