Inside the depths of the fish Drake finally had some success. "Come on I know im close just a little more..."
'BANG!' 'FWOOOSH'
Suddenly fire appeared in the palm of his hands.
....
[You have learned the skill [Fire Control]level1]
....
"Yes let's go, finally, it only took forever!" Drake screamed with excitement evident in his voice. He had finally learned how to make fire.
'ROAR!!'
Drake suddenly heard a roar. There seemed to be something going on outside. Suddenly the walls started to move around expanding and then slight holes appeared in the fish's stomach.
After a few minutes it calmed down. "It must be fighting a strong opponent." Drake went on with his day and started a fire for his food.
"LET THERE BE LIGHT!"
'FWOOSH'
Drake finally had a chance to eat. With the tender meat of the fish Drake enjoyed his meal to the best of his abilities.
After a filling meal Drake washed his hands in the water and got ready to lay down and sleep. It had taken awhile for him to learn [Mana Control] and [Fire Control].
When Drake was nice and cozy with his makeshift fire he suddenly heard a loud sound of rushing water. With speed to fast to to see Drake was flooded.
Drake was thrown around left and right. Red Viscous liquid covered Drake like a blanket. Unable to stop the momentum Drake started to panic struggling to hold his breath and not drown.
....
[You have the skill [Underwater Breathing]...]
....
'Oh...'
Drake took a deep breath finally able to breath. The skill only last for 30 minutes so Drake still needed to get to the surface.
He was spun around and slammed against different types of fish, rocks, and trees. When it finally stopped Drake had cuts all-over his body and an Aqua Demon was still holding onto his arm.
After awhile he decided to swim to the surface to get a look around and see if he could find a nice island. Reaching the surface all that Drake found was emptiness.
The only thing close by was a giant floating eye that scared him when he saw it. It was covered in scratches and the eye color was a weird yellow.
There were fish constantly biting at it but it didn't look like they were getting through. The eye seemed to have really high defense.
Whatever this creature was must have been unlucky to encounter this beast of a fish Drake was in. But with no other option Drake swam to the eye and prepared his sword.
With one slice the previously to big to get on eye was now like a floating island. After cutting the eye Drake was gonna get on to take a breather when he saw a glowing crystal slowly sink into the abyss under him.
Drake stared for awhile before deciding it was probably important. He dove underwater to chace the glowing light but crystal. From the looks of it the crystal seemed bigger than Drake himself and Drake wasn't short he was taller than most kids in his class.
While going down Drake saw a couple of lights in the distance that seemed to be giving off a comfortable feel. Drake had to shake his head a few times to focus back on his objective.
Going deeper and deeper Drake was wondering why it was so dark even with his night vision. After a couple of minutes he found him self just a little ways from the shiny crystal.
With a closer look it was probably the size of a small car. The creature this came from must of been the thing fighting this fish earlier.
Drake would go and check out the crystal but one of those lights suddenly floated over. It seemed bigger than the others more relaxing and more safe.
There was no need to do anything this light would keep you safe. It can solve all of your problems.
...
[The skill[Underwater Breathing] has leveled up]
...
Drake suddenly awoke from his stupor to see big sharp unorganized teeth slowly opening. The teeth were bending at different angles like they were randomly drawn by a young child.
Opon seeing this horrifying sight Drake opened his eyes in shock and unsheath his sword.
After looking around Dark noticed the creature in front of him was like an angler fish. The only difference was that it's flesh was grey almost like it was rotting and this one happend to be just as big as the crystal on the ground.
Drake swung his sword trying to battle and get away from this terrifying monstrosity of a fish.
Unexpectedly his sword cut straight threw its teeth like butter. Which meant it was still a tier one creature. Slowly Drake controlled his breathing and positioned himself in a way that he can't be eaten in one bite.
With its tooth suddenly cut the angler fish was shocked. It seemed to be confident in its Illusionary skills. If that didn't work it still had a couple more tricks up its sleeve.
Suddenly Drakes world went black and all he could see was the light once again. 'You can get me with the same trick twice you stupid fish.' Drake thought while struggling to not give into the light.
What Drake didn't know was that this trick was a little different. Right infront of his eyes the light disappeared and reappeared behind him.
While swinging his sword Drake slashed at the light only to hit nothing. It seemed that he was tricked. He tried to turn around but it was to late.
Drake left arm was pierced by one of those jagged teeth. He swung his sword and cut the tooth but even though he managed to keep his arm the damage was done.
A tooth the size of a tree branch was in his arm. luckily it's width was only like a pencil or his arm would already be gone. Drake started to panic.
His panic and worry seemed to grow Immensely. Being to much to handle Drake dropped his sword and pulled out a health potion. Drake chugged it as fast as possible.
The good thing is Drakes arm healed but the bad thing was... there was still a tooth in it. Drake stared at the tooth and pulled it out before chugging another potion.
That was the last potion he had on hand the next one he would need to purchase from the store. After he healed Drake seemed to calm down alot.
Seeing its meal heal infront of it the angler was upset. It's teeth had a poison that could make creatures go into a panic far surpassing their limits.
But this little creature seemed to beable to cancel out the effects. With this knowledge the angler chose to go all out aggressive. Since Drake couldn't see it it could use that as an advantage.
