Ocean Master

Despite motivating himself to pick up his ass and leave, Sebastian still remembered his 2nd and 3rd shark rule to always remain modest. He no longer dared underestimate any creature in this world.

He decided to play it cautious and cool, one step at a time.

Thinking of this, he felt funny again after recalling something from his previous life, precisely his native language.

"Wayum Wayum Bijegedi".

This was a saying that his old man always emphasized to him when he was still alive. It meant that slow and steady, that is the fastest and easiest way to victory.

With that at the back of his mind, he finally made his move.

[You have activated skill: Triple Reverse Swim.]

[You have activated skill: Advanced Electroreceptors.]

With the magical power of his electroreceptors spreading the omniscient electromagnetic waves to detect any ambush, and with his clear and alert eyes, he felt a lot more secure.

The main reason why the Devouring Cobra ambushed him so easily was that he was exhausted and starving, a repeat was not likely to happen.

Moving through the tight pathway of this tunnel, he was able to notice the slightest vibrations in the water and all the small organisms crawling across the rocky walls and beneath the rocks.

In such an atmosphere, he was able to experience a sense of natural tranquility that he\'s not felt in a long time. The only thing missing from the background was a cluster of plants or even weed to beautify the environment.

Without knowing it, he slipped into the peaceful vibe of undiluted nature.

"If industrial activities were not so bad, perhaps earth would be as peaceful and tranquil as this. But I enjoyed the benefits of industrialization though".

Keeping his mind occupied with that, he came before a sharp turn in the tunnel. Here, from the dominant grey color of the old rocks, reddish- and yellowish-brown rocks started presenting themselves to him.

Before he could even make the turn around the tunnel, his electroreceptors already alerted him of the prey shifting around at the other side.

Tracing the black and white lines in his vision, an image was immediately formed in his mind.

"Clownfish? What are these guys doing here?"

He was stunned seeing the 3 clown fishes swimming leisurely in such a confident manner like this was their home. He was about to ridicule them when he quickly remembered his laws.

But he couldn\'t help but become curious. "Nemo, is that you?"

He knew that he was being ridiculous which was why he didn\'t ask that out loud, but he was still curious as there was no sea anemone here indicating the territory of these clownfishes.

Well, it was not his right to ask, what was his right was that food was placed before him and he had to eat to stay alive.

"Sorry, Nemo".

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

[You have activated skill: Magic Teeth.]

Pu! Pu!

Hearing the sound and the rapid stir of the water, the alarmed clown fishes immediately turned in tandem like a group of specially trained commandos, making Sebastian feel apprehensive for a moment.

His apprehensiveness did not stop his flying teeth. In a moment, they quickly arrived before the 3 clownfish.

Ptui!

Repeated sounds of something sharp stabbing into flesh sounded, then the water became tranquil again after a few twitching movements from the fishes.

"…"

For a few seconds, Sebastian was left speechless, still in the animation phase to start a few new shots of his magic teeth.

"You guys are actually so weak, damn!"

He didn\'t know if he should cry or laugh. When he overestimated them, they became as easy to kill as beans but when he underestimated them, his prey would become as touch as a rock.

"This world is really perverted, and they even turned so professionally, making me feel like I was facing a battalion of Commandos".

Cursing under his breath, he quickly swam closer before feasting in the flesh of the 3 new prey who suffered to the tyranny of his prowess.

He only needed a few seconds before he gulped down the meat from the 3 clownfish. The basic profile of the Clownfish was unlocked for him by the system.

After quickly skimming through it, he continued his return journey upwards.

As soon as he left the position where he encountered the 3 clownfish, it did not take him long again before he emerged out of the tiny tunnel where he was swimming through.

As soon as he popped out of the tunnel, he arrived before another tunnel but this was far bigger, just like the path he used to scale down the abyssal plain for the first time.

Despite the resemblance, he keenly noticed that this was another pathway.

And just like the previous pathway where he scaled-down, he noticed other small tunnels just like the one he emerged from attached to this big tunnel to form something like a downward spiraling staircase.

Feeling a sense of familiarity from it, he flapped his tail fin cheerfully as he finally started scaling back to the outside expanse.

During his journey to the outside expanse, he met 3 eels in the process who were sleeping as this was still night. Without hesitation, he killed and ate them as he was not one to waste free food.

He met another eel, but this one was awake. Seeing him, the eel\'s eyes widened in horror like it just saw a ghost and immediately swam away before he could react.

For that, this was exactly how Sebastian felt.

"…"

"Am I so infamous in that city already? Well, that\'s kind of awesome".

Propping his ego with that, he continued his swim. It didn\'t take him long again before he arrived back at the familiar trench entrance.

Seeing the subdued but familiar green magic light illuminating the surrounding water spanning kilometers, he felt like yelling at the waters.

"I\'m back baby!"
