Splash!
A torchlight immediately turned in the direction of the water where the splash sound reverberated from. The old seaport guard held his cane tighter, his eyes strained to see through the dark as he carefully approached.
“Who is there?”
This was the port of Gilbratar, the biggest seaport in all of Beiger. Due to the numerous import and export services that went on in this place every day, it was always tightly guarded.
Because of that, the old guard did not fear that it was a human who made the splash sound. He rather believed that it was a sea creature, he already encountered such a scenario countless times so he was experienced.
With his long cane tightly in his grasp, he slowly arrived at the side of the sea. He pointed his torch inside but he could see nothing, only a long trail of something like a snake swimming across was left on the water.
“Strange”. He muttered.
He confirmed again that nothing was
The fist wrapped with Pugilist energy punched into the mutated shark’s body through its opened mouth, wreaking untold havoc in the predator’s body. Surprisingly, the shark’s thick body held despite it howling in pain.Not deterred by this, Morales threw all caution to the wind and directly dived into the shark’s belly through its opened mouth.Squash! Boom!After 2 strikes that struck directly to the middle of its medulla oblongata, the shark opened its mouth wide in pain and numbness, its strong body became bloated before exploding into a rain of blood and flesh.---------------------------343Critical hit -543You have killed a mutated great white shark; you have gained 421 experience.--------------------Bright golden energy manifestations like fireworks filled the sky, illuminating the darkness of the night sky.Now drenched in blood, Morales tore himself out of the remains of the mut
Amid the waves of the seawater, a figure suddenly emerged out of the water after swimming a distance spanning kilometers. Morales looked into the distance to confirm where he was going. Through his soul connection with his pet, he knew where it escaped to after they separated, but he still had to correct his path to avoid getting lost due to the distorted movement of the water. As soon as he annihilated the pursuit force of the soldiers, he did not hesitate before diving deep under the water. Through his space manipulation ability, he was able to make himself move faster under the water. As soon as he emerged out of the water, the first thing that was revealed to him was a small island among the fierce and constant undulating waves of the sea. He heaved a sigh of relief on seeing this; this was where he directed his pet to when he decided to stay and retaliate against the soldiers. Without hesitation, he dived back under the water to continue
“Cough!” “Cough!”Morales’s eyes blinked open as soon as he heard this. Turning his head to the side, he first saw Udrez who was still asleep before seeing Bella. She was awake but she was stuck in a violent fit of coughing.Seeing her vibrating hips, he immediately sat up straight, took one each from the energy recovery potion and the health recovery potion before injecting them into the girl’s body.She reflexively reacted on feeling someone suddenly touch her but on hearing Morales’s voice, she relaxed and let him inject the potion into her body.Morales held her in his arms, gently rubbing her back to ease her coughing fit. This was something that he learned from his grandma back on earth. It was awkward but effective.As the urge to cough slowly eased, Bella finally calmed down, struggled to open her still swollen eyes before looking at her surroundings.She immediately noticed that she was in a
In the royal palace, in a secret underground hall. The underground hall’s layout was just like a courtroom, with the head seat for the judge, the defendant’s table for a lawyer to present his client’s case, and the row of chairs at the back occupied by the spectators. At the head seat sat a middle-aged man. He had gray hair, reserved but sharp eyes, and a calm temperament. His head was lowered like he was uninterested in this gathering, but everyone in the hall could feel his cold but cool gaze resting on them, making them all continue feeling on their toes. The hall was just partially filled, and from the attire worn by most of the people, it could easily be discerned that they were of significant status in the palace. Right now, at the defendant’s table stood a middle-aged woman. And beside the gray-haired man who sat on the head seat stood a white-haired middle-aged man. The white sharp sword hanging from his waist indicated his identity.
Waves hit the body of the huge wooden ship as it cruised through the waters at a not too fast and not too slow pace, its streamlined bow divided the raging waters apart to let its enormous body move more smoothly.Captain Inu’s ship was filled to the brim with passengers before leaving, this was partly due to his reputation and the sturdiness of his ship.In this era, though the outside space beyond the Beiger planet already developed to great unimaginable heights technologically, magically, and mystically, Beiger planet was still just a surface planet with little development.In Morales’s previous life, Beiger planet was modeled after earth, and after transmigrating here it was still the same.Most of the best enchanted and technological weapons and artifacts on the planet were those gotten from outside, the technological gadgets created in Beiger were still within the range of normal human reasoning.So also, where ships, most ships i
Honk!! A sound chimed loudly in the sea, spreading the soundwaves through the atmosphere as smoke chugged out of the ship’s pipes. As this happened, the ship finally came to a stop at a sea harbor. As soon as it finally became motionless, activities exploded inside as the lots of seafaring passengers finally started coming down. This was Middle-Ray harbor, it was the only big harbor in this region that was convenient enough to accommodate large ships. In a few minutes, most of all the passengers in the ship alighted and new passengers started brawling their way forward to fight for the limited tickets, though they still haggled hard to lower the price. Wrapping himself up with the cloak that he stole again, Morales came down from the ship with his maid Bella. Udrez already obeyed his instructions and flew out before the ship stopped. The island accommodating this harbor was the biggest in this region but this was not Morales’s territor
Inside the one-storied building sat a young man. His hair, clothes, and shoes were messy and rugged, he had a buff body filled with strength with a crazy look on his face, and a scar injury caused by a sword.He was currently seated on a throne-like chair in the living room, 2 scantily dressed girls sat on his laps and his 2 rough hands were currently groping towards the unsafe territory.Perhaps, feeling irritated all of a sudden, he abruptly squeezed hard, causing the 2 girls to yelp in pain but they quickly covered their mouths to muffle the sound.Behind the throne-like chair stood 4 guards, their faces were stony as they pretended not to see the uncomfortable scene before them.As this continued, the thudding sounds of steps running across the wooden stairs suddenly started reverberating. In a few seconds, the thudding sounds faded away before being followed by 2 knocks.Knock! Knock!The scar-faced young man’s expression warped i
Inside the large but relatively rough and dirty sitting room, Bella sat on one of the better chairs while repeatedly fidgeting uncomfortably. She kept on stealing glances at Morales. What happened a few minutes ago still seemed like a dream to her, she never expected the small, timid, and cheerful Morales that she knew to suddenly evolve into a cold murderer that could kill without blinking an eye. The scene of the young master unsheathing and sheathing his sword kept on flashing on her head, and the scene of the local warlord’s body dropping lifelessly kept on ringing bells on her head. “This is unbelievable”. Her brain just kept yelling this. The more she thought of it, the more she felt like crying. She believed that it was probably because of the traumatic experiences that plagued Morales outside the palace that bred the new him. “I didn’t protect him enough”. She felt like sobbing. “What of her majesty, what would she think?” The
