When Naofumi messaged me about the new dragon hourglass he said to be ready because the hourglass said the next wave would appear in two days he'd go tell the queen to prepare. I explained to the girls we'd have to get ready for another fight and that it would be a wave this time they understood and we teleported back to the town and helped the people evacuate. Later on ships from the kingdom appeared and we got on them waiting for the next wave. I could tell Ren, Itsuki and Motoyasu were scared to fight on the sea probably due to their seasickness. Kina came along with the queen and joined our party for the fight as Melty joined up with Naofumi and his party. Even with the imminent threat the other three heroes still refused to work with us I could L'Arc and Therese were on the ship I guess they were going to help us fight Naofumi said that they were more reliable than the others "hey what about me?" I said "your fine Y/N" Naofumi said.

We all were soon teleported to where the battle was going to take place quickly the knights dropped cohol fruit barrels in the water to weaken any monsters and fire arrows to bring them to the surface. Soon the wave boss appeared it was a giant narwhal-like creature named the Inter-Dimensional whale Itsuki fired a meteor shot at it but the attack did nothing to the monster Ren stated that the monster needed to be out of the water. Mirellia wanted Naofumi to jump into the water but I interjected I had a much better idea so I jumped into the water and summoned the turtle guardian to help me. The turtle guardian and I summoned a tsunami attack and sent the monster flying into the air the three heroes used meteor shot, meteor meteor thrust and meteor slash even with the combined effort those attacks did nothing to the whale. The creature then fired a laser attack from the horn on it's head everyone braced for the attack but it destroyed one of our ships with combined attacks Raphtalia fired a magical harpoon from a launcher on the boat while Nitra fired piercing shot both attacks managed to damage to monster as they were stronger then the other three heroes. Suddenly smaller fish monsters started to jump out of the water onto the boats and began to attack everyone luckily Melty and Luna's attacks made short work of the monsters but one of them tried to take Melty into the sea but luckily L'Arc sent out an attack and saved her. The knights kept sending out cohol barlles and fire arrows I could feel distaste coming from L'Arc when Melty brought up Naofumi and I which bothered me at first. Soon Naofumi asked L'Arc if he would help take down the monster to which L'Arc asked me to get the monster out of the water again I hesitated to do so at first but I summoned the turtle guardian again and had it flush the monster out of the water to keep it from moving I summoned my new leviathan to wrap up the monster. Quickly L'Arc sent out another attack with help from Filo both attacks created a thunderstorm that combined with L'Arc's scythe I had the leviathan throw the monster towards L'Arc then he quickly slaied the monster. After that the others were begining to take the drops from the monster which kind of pissed me off I had done most of the work on fighting the monster. L'Arc belittled the three for being weak then repelled them all L'Arc went on to say he wanted to kill the shield hero and the staff hero for the sake of his world whatever that meant. Even though L'Arc and Therese had nothing personal against Naofumi and I they reveal that they were indeed from another world and they were that world's heroes which like this one was on the brink of destruction by the waves and for their world to survive they need to take out us heroes so that this world faces destruction not theirs. That's when it hit me I remembered the mural from the lightning temple of the five heroes facing off against another five Mirellia and Melty declared them enemies and ordered the knights to help us stop them. All of them charged at the two but quickly were taken down not even putting up much of a fight now it was up to Naofumi and I Therese summoned a meteor shower but the queen casted a silver lining to make sure the battle could go on without interference. Therese asked Filo and Raphtalia to stay out of the battle because Naofumi was their enemy not them but they refused and began to fight L'Arc lunged at Raphtalia but I blocked him he then swiped at me with his scythe and sent me crashing into the destroyed ship. From there I had a cleaver idea I equiped my golem staff and began to create a new golem to help in this fight I made a golem from the shipwreck to help me.

I rode the golem back over to the fighting I saw knights rescue the other heroes and Naomi with his soul eater shield bitting down on L'Arc's arm I soon had my golem fire a cannon ball at L'Arc sending him flying Naofumi was surprised by my new go...

I rode the golem back over to the fighting I saw knights rescue the other heroes and Naomi with his soul eater shield bitting down on L'Arc's arm I soon had my golem fire a cannon ball at L'Arc sending him flying Naofumi was surprised by my new golem 'geesh is there a golem you can't make" he said I laughed "all I need is the stuff" I said jumping of the golem back onto the boat. L'Arc charged at us I quickly blocked his attack with a barrier I saw Therese fire a flame attack at Naofumi but before it hit him the attack dissipated I heard a sorrowful voice come from a bracelet she was wearing. I felt a pain in my arm from L'Arc's attack he explained his physical strike deals damage in direct proportion of the target's defense, thus being perfect against a barrier or the shield hero "switch it up" I said "alright can't handle him" Naofumi said "that's not it ass I I get hurt more since I don't have a shield like you" I responded. Quickly I went after Therese sending attacks at her I sent a holy ray at her while Nitra fired an ice arrow, Luna sent a fire slash and Kina  slash our attacks damaged her strongly I noticed Naofumi use a strong attack on L'Arc making his attack useless against Naofumi. After Melty arrived we all began to attack the two again and again to try and stop them Filo and Melty sent out a combo attack and Luna and Kina sent out a combo attack they pushed L'Arc back then Raphtalia injured his arm and Nitra fired an arrow into his leg. We both complimented each other it was clear that the two were infact heroes from another world I heard a familiar voice and saw another ship get destroyed I looked up to see a familiar face it was Glass she looked at Naofumi then at me but she glared at me she then fired multiple attacks at us Naofumi put up his shield and I created a large barrier we barely managed to contain the attacks. Glass clapped slowly at the display "you both did well in going toe to toe with L'Arc and managing to wound him you both did this due to your strengths" Glass said I had enough of this and went to attack Glass but was stopped when a gunshot went off and a bullet almost hit my foot I looked to see where it came from and saw someone I fell to my knees shocked "it's you it can't be you, how" was all I said.

A/N: One last cliffhanger before the last chapter I wonder who or what it is? Can you guess who or what it is? If you guess right you get a special prize if not you get nothing. So yeah last chapter is coming and then the long wait for season 2 to come out I am working on getting an origin and powers and equipment list for the main character of the Wise Man's Grandchild story so if you have any ideas message me.
