Knowing him, he did not mind lending a helping hand to the child who fell into the water.
But from what he heard from the villagers, Angor was right. Kumur brought this upon himself. He was trying to scare his friends away by hiding in the water. By the time he wanted to come out, this accident happened.
Angor believed that Kumur deserved to be taught a lesson. Now that Kumur had become the bait of a sea monster, it was a good karma.
Angor didn't do anything right away. He simply watched from the back of the crowd. No matter how fast the sea monster was, it couldn't possibly be faster than Toby.
Angor waited patiently for the disaster to come, so he could leave a mark on Kumur's life. However, he didn't expect that halfway through, someone would actually rush to his rescue without any regard for his life.
And that person was Tulu.
Angor shook his head. He didn't agree with Tulu's decision.
Kindness or evil, kindness or indifference, was nothing more than a question of choice for all living beings. From a rational standpoint, there was no right or wrong. Everything depended on one's choice.
Angor was a light wizard who believed in the laws of order, thanks to Jon's education on Earth.
Even so, Angor still didn't think Tulu's decision was rational.
It would be fine if Tulu was only facing a common sea monster. With human wisdom and skills, Tulu wouldn't lose even against a powerful shark whale. If he used his kindness and kindness, he might be able to create a miracle.
But Tulu was facing a supernatural sea monster, while he was only a mortal. How could he fight against a supernatural creature? And he was in the home of a sea monster. This was definitely an outcome with no chance of survival.
Not only would he fail to save Kumur, but he would also lose his own life.
The most valuable asset of a wizard was the knowledge stored in his head, and the long lifespan he needed to further his knowledge. Death meant nothing. But Tulu was going to become a wizard who pursued the path of truth in the future. Angor didn't agree with Tulu's decision.
In the cruel and cunning wizarding world, one could be kind and kind, but one had to know one's own limits. You had to do what you needed to do at your current level.
He watched as Tulu and his friends drove the fishing boat to where Kummer fell into the water.
Originally, he only wanted to teach the devilish brat a lesson, but now there was another person involved.
As time passed, Tulu's ship was getting closer and closer to Kumore. The monster's eyes flashed red as if it was about to reel in the net.
The people on the shore were already in despair. At this time, they also saw the situation clearly and understood that the sea beast was deliberately setting up a trap. Someone even shouted for Tulu and Leif to retreat and not get involved, but it was obviously too late.
Angor shifted his attention away from Tulu and looked at Kummer.
"It's a bit strange." Angor frowned. The kid had been struggling on the water for half a day, and he was still struggling. A normal person would have been exhausted long ago. Moreover, the longer they struggled, the greater the possibility of cramps in their legs.
The child was like a perpetual motion machine. It didn't look like it was floating on the water at all. Instead, it looked like it was jumping on the ground.
Angor was a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it. Maybe the children who grew up in fishing villages all learned how to swim.
When Tulu and Leif's ship was about two ship lengths away from Kummer, Kummer finally noticed that someone was coming to save him.
His throat was dry from all the crying, so he quickly tried to swim toward the ship.
But as soon as he moved, he found himself falling into the water. Everything had been fine before, but now something had happened? The devilish brat immediately bobbed up and down on the surface of the sea. Moreover, his head would be submerged in the water for a while before coming out of the water for a while. It was even more dangerous than before.
"Mister Tulu, help me!" Kummer spat out water, and seawater started to enter his nose. He looked extremely pitiful. "Save me …"
"Damn you! How many times do I have to tell you to call me big brother?" "Hold on to the oars!" Tulu said softly. "Hold on to the oars!"
Kummer struggled for a long time, but he couldn't reach the oar at all. He covered his nose with his hands and said in a weak voice, "My legs are cramping …"
"What the hell?!" Tulu cursed. Why did it have to be now of all times?! Why didn't you get cramps before?!
Leif, who was standing behind Tulu, said in a trembling voice, "Du-Du-Du-Lu, the sea monster is coming …"
Tulu turned around and saw the sea monster, which had been staying in the same spot for a long time, finally showing half of its head. It was slowly moving toward Tulu's direction. In its eyes, the two mortals on the ship were already food for the monster, so it didn't even use any energy to attack them.
The sea monster moved quickly even though it was just swimming.
While Tulu was yelling, the sea beast had already opened its mouth and bit down viciously on the small boat.
Two loud crunching noises and two splashes were heard at the same time.
Tulu and Leif stood at the front and back of the boat respectively and jumped into the water. The sea beast's bite directly tore the ship in half.
After eating a mouthful of wood, the sea beast shook its head and shook off the wood dregs in its mouth. Its scarlet eyes glanced at the two of them again.
"Swim! Swim back to the shore!" Tulu shouted.
Leif didn't wait for Tulu's order. He followed his survival instincts and swam back to the shore.
Their relatives on the shore were crying bitterly as they tried to find a way to guide them.
Tulu had jumped into the water near Kummer. He wanted to swim back to the shore as well, but when he heard Leif calling him "Uncle Tulu", he gritted his teeth and pulled Kummer into his arms to swim with him.
Fortunately, Kumore was still in a semi-conscious state, and his hands and feet were not struggling. Otherwise, his instinctive struggle would have been enough to kill them.
Even so, things weren't looking good for them.
That was because the lizard-like sea beast chose Tulu over Leif. After all, there were two people here, while Leif was the only one on the other side.
The sea monster was still slowly swimming toward them. Tulu couldn't swim faster than it even if he tried.
When the sea monster was about two meters away from them, it opened its stinky mouth and bit down on them.
Tulu's survival skills allowed him to dodge instinctively, and he managed to avoid the attack by a hair's breadth.
However, good luck didn't last forever. The sea monster was angered by the fact that it didn't get any "meat" after two bites in a row. It moved the water to block Tulu's path and vision.
The sea monster bit down again. This time, Tulu dove into the sea and swam to the right side.
Although he successfully dodged the attack, he heard a whistling sound coming from behind. He turned around and saw several water arrows being shot out from the sea monster's mouth.
Tulu's fighting instincts made him curl up and dodge the other water arrows. However, one of them still slashed across the left side of his face and tore his skin open.
Before the pain could reach his central nervous system, the smell of blood started to spread.
Tulu touched the left side of his face. He could still feel the smooth skin, but for some reason, he felt like something was missing. At this moment, the intense dizziness and pain finally hit him.
Tulu's calf was twitching, but the pain wasn't fatal. The consequences of his forceful maneuvers in the sea just now were finally beginning to show.
Tulu's scream came from afar. Leif didn't know what was going on, but he didn't dare to look back. He kept swimming forward.
While Tulu's leg was cramping, the sea monster slowly swam towards Tulu and opened its mouth in front of his desperate eyes.
Tulu thought that he was going to die here today, and his heart was filled with regret.
If he didn't go back to the fishing village, if he didn't go back to Yothur City, if he didn't go out to the sea, if he didn't come here to save people … Would he not have to face death?
But it had already happened. His wrong choice had led him to this path of death.
Truman closed his eyes, a look of deep regret on his face.
As he waited for death to claim him, a cold voice spoke into his ears. "It's your fault for not recognizing reality and doing something beyond your capabilities."
"Remember, I saved your life this time. Cherish your life, and I'll be waiting for you to pay me back. "
Tulu opened his eyes and saw a tall and slender figure standing in front of him, facing the sea monster that was terrifying to him.
The sea beast was cut into two halves by a crescent-shaped blade.
"T-t-t-t-we're saved?"
Tulu's heart was filled with complex emotions at the sight of the sea beast's corpse being sliced in half. Aside from the joy of being saved, he also felt a sense of emptiness after his impulsive actions.
It was Angor who saved Tulu.
Angor floated above the sea and looked at Tulu with his cold eyes. "I hope you've learned your lesson this time."
With that, Angor grabbed Tulu in his Hand of Spell and swam back to the shore.
Surprised shouts and cheers came from the shore as well. Since he didn't sense any movement from the sea monster, he looked back and saw the two halves of the sea monster floating on the sea.
When he looked back, he saw Angor hovering in the air and placing Tulu and Kumore on the beach.
"Is that the wizard Tulu was talking about?"
When Leif swam back to the shore, it should be a happy moment for everyone, but everyone was silent.
Puzzled, Raif looked over and saw Tulu sitting in the center of the group, clutching his left ear in a daze.
When Leif took a closer look, he saw that there was a huge cut on Tulu's left cheek, and his left ear … had disappeared.
