Stunning Edge

Chapter 94

Chapter 94-

The magicians’ minds were all blank, stopping their movements as they froze and stared at the sky.

The soldiers guarding the city wall and the residents who had been praying fearfully all looked up and marveled at the magnificent scene in the sky.

The incomparably beautiful golden flame in the air exploded forth, whistling as it shot through the air. The gray sky shone a golden hue and the gorgeous golden color seemed to drive away the fear cast in their hearts.

Then the painful roars of sea beasts sounded from beyond the wall, ear piercing. The sound of waves slapping the wall was deafening, able to be heard clearly from far away.

Even idiots would know that the sea beasts’ pain was related to the gorgeous scene!

The magicians standing at the wall had their mouths open wide, not believing their eyes. That power was definitely not something that could be generated by a magic bow! The girl, the very ordinary looking girl, was a magician! A magician whose power surpassed all of them by far!

The sounds of explosions still arose here and there, the sea surging turbulently. The sea beasts roared extremely painfully, writhing in pain as they disappeared into the water. Nobody noticed that Dong Fenghou who was wearing a large robe was concentrating on something. Making the sea beasts pretend for a moment wasn’t anything hard.

As the sea beasts’ roars became more and more distant, the waves died in strength. The dusky gray sky gradually became bright. Dark clouds dissipated, slowly revealing the sun. Outside the city wall, the seawater that had submerged the harbor was slowly withdrawing, gradually showing how the harbor originally looked.

Everybody just stared vacantly at the miraculous change in the sky, unable to return to their senses for a long time.

Incomparably brilliant sunlight warmly shined on Placid Waters, every nook and cranny, shining on every single person.

The soldiers guarding the city wall from below stared blankly at the girl standing atop the wall. Under the sunlight, the girl’s expression was indifferent, wind gently raising the girl’s beautiful moment. For an instant, every seemed to see the girl shining thousands of rays brilliantly. Then in a blink of an eye, the girl looked so common, she couldn’t have look more ordinary.

“The, the sea beasts have withdrawn and won’t come back ever again?” The city lord stuttered, staring at the harbor that was slowly being revealed.

“Yes, they won’t come back, because I already discovered yesterday why the sea beasts attacked the harbor.” Claire replied seriously.

“The sea beasts were only giving humans a punishment. There needs to be a policy for limiting the amount of fishing. City Lord, you should consider this policy. For example, not allowing fishing during the season fish lay eggs…” Looking righteous, Camille started to create a cover for Claire.

“It’s, it’s like that?” The city lord’s expression changed. He looked at Claire, wanting a confirmation.

“Yes, your lordship. I hope that you will deal with that matter well. The sea beasts have already withdrawn and will never attack again. I believe under your leadership, Placid Waters will thrive once more.” Claire said randomly. Of course she couldn’t tell the city lord that everything they had seen just then was a half truth. Letting these greedy humans understand how to be sustainable while they were at it was not bad either. Even in a fertile area, unregulated fishing would one day lead to depletion.

When Claire said the reason for why the sea beasts attacked and submerged the harbor, everybody sighed, but they weren’t able to find a better reason, so they believed it. The amount of food in the sea was indeed closely relevant to the sea beasts’ existence and Placid Waters was the empire’s biggest source of sea products. The amount of sea goods produced every day was very huge. The reason did seem to hold truth.
