From Pages 162-163:
Title: Water Beast
Class: Leviathan
Approximate Length: 1529.26 cm
Approximate Height: 437.82 cm
Known Habitat: Flooded Forest, Lava Caverns
A nightfall in the river
A mysterious sound of water
You can't go carelessly
Beyond the waterfall, a wet figure
Wearing a yellow collar
These are ruthless fangs
Water flowing along the ground: A male Ludroth that has grown to a large size and acts as the leader of the pack. It is also known as the "Water Beast" because it inhabits water, both freshwater and saltwater. What appears to be a mane around its neck are spongy scales also known as yellow collars, which contain moisture to prevent the epidermis from drying out and aid in its movements on land. It also uses its huge body to lunge at prey or enemies, and the water spurting from its mane leaves the opponent drowning when it comes into contact with them. There is still a ghost story that local residents once mistook it for a woman with wet hair and a snake-like lower body.
Diet and Behavior: A wide variety of creatures gather in the cave, and there are many places to hide. We see them when they come out to shallow waters, and they are known to swim faster underwater than on land. In addition, all the Ludroth that accompany Royal Ludroth are female, and they form colonies consisting of several females per male.
Distinctive Body Parts: The scales that cover its long body shine with a dazzling brilliance, polished by the water. When held up to the sun, the light reflects in a diffuse manner, creating an indescribable beauty. What stands out about its supple body are its front legs, which are extremely strong and sturdy, reminiscent of Fanged Wyverns. It is unclear whether these developed to help it paddle in the water while living underwater, or whether they are remnants of its ancestors that once lived on land.
Hunting Guide: It is known that it is more active and violent near water, and relentlessly pursues its prey. In addition to compressing the Aqua Sac inside its body to squirt out powerful water blasts, it also absorbs water stored in special holes in its skin, mixes it with bodily fluids, and spits out a viscous liquid. It seems that it loses vitality when it loses the water stored in its yellow collar, so it rolls around in the water or heads to a waterfall to recover.
Struggle for Survival - Turf Wars: There are many large monsters that feed in the rich waters of this area, including Somnacanth, Tetranadon, Jyuratodus, and Almudron. Although fierce territorial disputes do occur, the area remains relatively peaceful, likely because each monster has a different preference, with the Royal Ludroth tending to prefer running water, the Tetranadon preferring gravel areas, and the Almudron preferring stagnant, muddy waters, and their ecological niches are well differentiated.
Mane on its Neck: Spongy tissue with elasticity and high water retention is a sign of a strong male.
Crest on its Head: A crest that rises when it becomes excited. Its size and number indicate its position in the herd.
Dash Extract in its Body: When the body is excited, an extract that suppresses muscle fatigue is produced and distributed throughout the body.
