Isabella's expression turned ugly as she felt another presence coming in.
'As if one deep water monstrosity isn't enough for me to deal with. Tsk.'
She didn't know how these things got attracted to whatever's happening here, but it's clear that they're not happy about it. She didn't even question how these things could emerge on land safely, as if being out of water meant nothing to them. All she knows is that she has to take care of these two, or else this entire operation will be lost.
Boom! Splash! Roar!
Her set-up to limit the movement of the Kraken was destroyed by its teammate. From the depths of the waves, she saw another large monstrosity emerging.
'Leviathan.'
That's what the Federal Army labeled it. It's a giant sea demon with the body of a shark. It has scales that look like deep sea corals; it also has five rows of sharp and jagged teeth; some were even protruding out of its mouth. It's wrath combined with Kraken's caused the skies to darken even further.
Thunder and lightning roared from above, giving some semblance of illumination here and there, allowing some people to see just what kind of monstrosities they had to face.
The poor people, whose task it was to document the entire operation through film, couldn't even lift their filming apparatuses properly. They could only watch in horror as Isabella faced these two enormous sea demons by herself.
Isabella knew that she didn't have the luxury of remaining idle. This situation was far too dangerous for her to face alone. So, even before the second one appeared completely in her view, she had already raised her staff to summon numerous glaciers above her.
Once the Leviathan landed next to the Kraken, Isabella slammed the butt of her staff on the ground and turned the shore frozen solid. She then launched the glaciers above her, which then formed small hills of pure ice crystals as soon as they landed.
The appedages of the sea demons were frostbitten, but it seems that they could hardly feel it. Isabella wouldn't be surprised if this was actually the case. It would be awesome if she could truly freeze them to death within a short time; that would certainly make her life easier. But it's also fine if she couldn't. This was just another set-up anyway.
The Kraken slammed its tentacles on the ice hills around it; it also tried to wiggle its body to break the thick sheet of ice that restricted its movements. Of course, Leviathan was also trying to do the same. However, Isabella's ice had a surprising density.
They tried to evade her wrathful onslaught, but their size worked against them this time. Isabella didn't even need to aim; so long as she focuses on the general direction, it's almost certain that she will hit them. And because her ice was dense and solid, coupled with her skills at controlling them, her attacks hurt them immensely.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
"Oh, you've got to be fucking kidding me." Isabella's lips twitched in irritation as she heard her set-up emitting dangerous sounds coming from below.
She released her detection spell once more and cursed under her breath. Her brows furrowed as she increased her efforts to maintain the frozen field. She could feel that whatever it was that was trying to destroy it from below was certainly determined to do so.
Moments later, the impacts stopped completely. However, Isabella knew that the situation was far from being safe or stable. Whatever that thing was, it simply swerved to find a different area to emerge from. By no means, it was retreating.
Boom! Splash! Roaar!
"There it fucking is." Isabella snarled hatefully at the creature that just joined the party.
In terms of size alone, both the Kraken and the Leviathan had nothing on this one. It's gigantic body almost made Isabella look like a stuffed toy from the sheer difference.
Huge rock-like scales, reptilian claws, a long and sleder body, and a and a fearsome size—the one that just arrived was none other than the Deep Sea Demon Serpent, who's most likely the big brother of the Leviathan and the Kraken.
If those two could be called the overlords of the Sea Demons, the Deep Sea Demon Serpent was the true king of Prime Earth's tainted seas. The Federal Army only ever had a glimpse of it when they're probing the depths; the image didn't even come out clearly, but from what they could make out, they could immediately tell that this one was the true final boss of the sea demons.

What makes the Deep Sea Demon Serpent different from the Kraken and the Leviathan is that it could fly, which instantly makes it three times harder for Isabella to restrict it like she did with its little brothers.
Seeing this one come up as well, Isabella knew that she's in for a really difficult time.
But as the Deep Sea Demon Serpent was about to attack her directly, a pillar of pure white light smote it down and nailed it to the solid ice sheet, twitching in pain.
"Are you kidding me!?" A pitched voice of disbelief echoed behind her. "You're having a party here all by yourself? That's unfair!"
Isabella looked behind her and saw two people arriving, causing her to sigh in relief.
