Small carnivorous fish and strangely shaped merfolk swam in the water, occasionally surging to the surface to tear off flesh. Acel quickly grabbed a fish that suddenly jumped up and observed it closely.

"It's better not to enter the water if possible," Celine muttered.

Acel nodded and layered even more shields to protect the group.
