Chapter 60 - [Bonus ]The Magician Of Sound!
Minutes turned to hours, hours turned to dozens of hours but the great white shark remained in the hole, silently going through an evolution.
Sebastian\'s eyes were opened but they were glazed over like those of a zombie. They had no focus; this was how sharks slept. Despite his brain\'s inactivity, his body was active as always, burning calories like paper money.
Outside the hole, predators came and went, but none of them detected the hidden hole that was below them.
As his body hovered on the water, visible changes could be detected in his body. His skin squirmed like flour in the hands of a baker, his body slowly enlarged like large amounts of air were being pumped into him.
The changes in him outwardly were superficial compared to the ones going through him internally. Slowly, his magic organ changed in shape like it was a statue being finetuned at the hands of a sculptor.
Compared to his previous evolution, the changes were far more staggering already though it was still ongoing.
…
Creak!
Sebastian\'s eyes slowly regained focus due to the sound-induced by the walls of the hole that he was hiding in. He felt like he\'s already been sleeping for decades, but it was still just a few dozen hours.
Immediately after his consciousness solidified, only 2 words dominated his mind. "I\'ve evolved".
His system clarified at the same time as he thought about it.
[Congratulations! Host has successfully completed evolution. You are now a level 11 Young Megalodon.]
Hearing this, Sebastian was about to yell in joy but he remembered that he was slowly becoming an Oceania powerhouse, so he did the same way as powerhouses did.
He revealed a grin that only made him look spooky on his sharky face.
"System, show me my status". He calmly demanded.

------------------------------------
Seeing this, Sebastian originally wanted to play it cool the powerhouse way, but his willpower was clearly not strong enough as he faltered the next second.
"Holy… Shit!"
He felt his body bubbling with excitement as he went through his new status over and over again, he felt as high as a drunkard who just took down 24 bottles of beer in 5 minutes.
The first reason for his current excitement was the exaggerated increase in his base stats. From 13, his strength stat directly jumped all the way to 87. For a moment there, he thought that it was a scam.
His other base stats increase was also exaggerated. The other stats which left him feeling super excited was his health and mana points, they also experienced a quantum leap after this evolution.
At this moment, he finally confirmed how powerful sea creatures who had already undergone the 2nd evolution were.
His Water Transmutation unique skill and other trump cards were what enabled him to level ground with his previous opponents.
The other thing that left him giddy was the outrageous number of skills that he had now. His stockpile of skill and adaptation points was already finished, but he did not regret it one bit.
With this, he knew that he could now carve a place for himself in this world.
He still felt a little bad about not being given enough time to deliberate on the magic domain to choose, but he was still satisfied with the sound magic domain.
For his new demarcation of skills, after purchasing the material magic organ, he gained the basic magic power that Leroy and other sea creatures had.
This was what powered his material magic skills, while his sound domain skills will be powered by his special sound magic domain.
Both drew mana from his magic organ.
For his new skills, the Cardiac Sphincter Constrictor was one of the skills that he observed from his alpha father\'s battle against the fire-breathing dragon.
When activated in a battle, it would make water rapidly pump into his body, and this water would be prevented from escaping by his cardiac sphincter muscle. This way, he would suddenly balloon in size.
Such an exaggerated increase in size would intimidate any predator like was demonstrated by the alpha great white against the Dragon.
For his magic skills, the rejuvenation was self-explanatory. He would draw mana from his magic organ to create a healing fluid to heal himself in battle.
This was a very useful ability. If he had this during his battle against the Devouring Cobra, his situation wouldn\'t have been so dire then.
His magic shield was the normal one used by most sea creatures. After experiencing so many battles already, he knew the importance of this skill.
For the supersonic speed, this was a magic skill that he bought to escape in times of danger. The ultimate speed depended on how much magic power he decided to pump into it, which meant it was practically limitless.
For his sound domain skills, the sound control skill was a compulsory skill recommended by the system. It enabled him to control the sound waves in the water in various ingenious ways.
For example, he could communicate with a sea creature far away by manipulating it properly. This skill was the essence of his sound domain magic.
For the sonic drill, it enabled him to control soundwaves to create something like a sharp metallic drill. He could use it to attack both the body and the brain.
For the sonic reflection, it enabled him to use his opponent\'s sound against them. For example, if his opponent roared in anger or pain in battle, he could manipulate the soundwaves to return and attack the opponent.
And it was an area of effect skill.
For the sonic dissonance, he got the inspiration for this from his alpha dad. Though it was not the same skill as the alpha had a different magic domain, the effects were the same.
By clacking his teeth together or gritting them, he could make sounds that would scare away other sea creatures.
And there was a certain percentage of making their mind hurt which meant that it could help in actual battle.
For the water cyclone, he could control the vibrations in the water to create something like a hurricane which can block attacks and deal damage to opponents at the same time.
For his adaptations, they were self-explanatory. The damage reflection skin coating gave him a certain percentage of reflecting melee damage to the opponent.
The camouflage organ could help him change the color of his skin, thereby blending into his surroundings like a chameleon. The last Sound magic domain was self-explanatory.
Seeing how strong and diverse he became after one evolution, Sebastian felt surreal. And he could control sound magic now too.
He chuckled, producing bubbles in the water. "Can I be called a magician of sound now?"
