812 Fighting A Kid!
“At least it’s a miniature version of those colossal beasts out there,” I sighed before I decided to move out the moment my forces evacuated the entire place.
“It’s time to say hi,” as I was ready, I decided first to go and see what was really special about this beast.
Aside from its body size, it seemed to not care that much about the forces that were packed around it. For a moment there I even thought it might be sleeping or something.
Was it an idiot? Was it severely wounded? Or was it feeling so strong to not even care about the forces around? Like they were flies to it?
I stopped my chariot just a few hundred metres away from it. Yet even with my arrival, it didn’t show any sign of interest or alertness at all.
It kept its head lying on the bottom of the ocean, closing its two groups of elliptical eyes. It had a body that had a big rounded belly, short thick six pairs of legs, and one short tail with a fin at its end.
It looked like a small whale in my eyes, with such a rectangular shaped head.
Aside from that, its body was covered with smooth pale brown skin. It had no scale at all, making it look quite different from the monsters I saw on the ground.
Was this a feature for these beasts when they went into water? Or was it something related to this baby guardian beast?
I didn’t have any Hector race descendant next to me I could trust to ask them about what this meant.
“Hey, are you awake or what?” As I lacked any source of intel about this beast, I had to shout and ask it directly.
And once I spoke to it, this beast opened its eyes for the first time since I saw it.
It opened its eyes in such a slow and lazy way, as if it didn’t pay any attention or place any importance to me.
“Scram!” a young voice echoed in my ears, as if this beast was sitting just next to me, “or else you’ll regret coming here.”
“Oh, quite fierce and arrogant beast you are,” I couldn’t help but raise one eyebrow when he said this.
“I just hate killing and fighting, but if you want I can accompany you anytime.”
“I’m not here to kill you,” I shrugged.
“Then scream, you are disturbing my sleep.”
This beast… It was starting to get on my nerves.
“Ok, sleep as much as you want, I’ll take you to a place that you’ll like,” I said these words while I started my seal technique.
Once the first ball appeared, that beast looked in such vigilance towards me. It started to stand up, showing a more grandiose body than what appeared when it was sitting on the bottom of the ocean.
The water here looked so dense and quiet, yet when it moved few currents started to develop as if it was stirring up the ocean and gathering up its energy.
“Don’t mind me, just go back to your sleep,” I said while forming my balls one after another, “if it’s quiet and sleep you want, I can guarantee that.”
“What are you doing?” he asked and from its eyes, a fierce golden brown ray of light shimmered, “I don’t like the vibe coming from these balls of yours. Recall them or else…”
“Or… What?” I didn’t show any sign of weakness, “this is the only way I have to take you to such a place. Trust me, this place is a good one for a beast like you.”
“I don’t like you,” that beast started to gather up its energy, forming a thick coat of golden brown energy around its body. Just as this coat appeared, fine scales started to emerge from its skin.
So these scales were hiding deep underneath its body, appearing only at times of danger.
Quite a tricky beast this was!
From the look of it, it didn’t give me any feeling of being mighty or dangerous. But right now I got to feel almost the same pressure I felt when I met up with my little turtle for the first time.
It gave me the vibe of standing against a deadly beast, one that could devour me and end my life if I made a single mistake.
But I wasn’t going to do such a thing!
“Just calm down, I’m a friend after all.”
“I smell the same scent of those annoying bastards who came here hours ago,” he seemed to get the link between me and my forces, “the same dirty smell is coming also from your body and those hideous balls. Recall them now or die!”
“Don’t say something you can’t follow,” I responded to his threat with such a cold and fierce tone and gaze, “or else I won’t treat you well like I intended.”
“You are all the same! Coming here for my blood and power! You are no different from those scumbags who kept killing my brothers and sisters, killing my race for the long course of time.”
“Race? Since when beasts call themselves a race?!” I had this question nagging me when I heard his words. Besides, I needed to waste time till my ball got finished.
I just created six of them, and there were still five missing.
“I don’t like you!” I didn’t know why this beast was acting so noisy. The next moment, its coat of energy swelled up, bulged to form large spears of water.
The spears were almost tens of metres in length, few metres in diameter, looking quite sharp and dangerous.
Then the water forming the spear started to condense and turned into ice!
“Oh, trying to attack when we were having such a nice and friendly chat?” I laughed, “alright, let me show you the real strength of the lord you are going to serve.”
“My race doesn’t serve anyone, we only answer to the mighty gods of ours! Die you idiot!”
*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*
And the next moment, all the spears it created started to move so damn fast and slammed fiercely against my shield.
