Chapter 959: Firstborn (1/2)

”What?” Krune was left at a loss for words when he looked at the details displayed on the baby's tablet. There were four rows of words on it, with each line as shocking as the other.

[Sub-Realm's Firstborn]

[Obtained: 100 Credits]

[Obtained Passive: Ocean Affinity]

[Obtained Passive: Solar Breathing]

”Just…what are these? I have not seen them before...” The Seamstress went closer to him and looked at the words displayed on the baby's tablet. ”These abilities, they were gifted by the Sub-Realm itself? Also, his tablet looks a bit different from ours as far as I can see, don't you think?”

Naturally, Krune also noticed a tiny difference in the baby's tablet. On its top were a couple of waves, making the tablet look grander than theirs. Upon seeing the rewards displayed on it, Krune realized the reason they were after the baby in the first place.

Just as Krune had done, they could easily use the baby's finger to summon his tablet. Even if he wasn't able to use it now, once he waited until the baby was three to four years old, Gajor would be able to manipulate the baby to purchase everything he needed through the Checkpoint Turtle.

After all, 100 Godly Points was a large sum. If one solely relied on their ability to hunt, it might take decades to obtain such a sum in Layer 3. And this was in the case they were able to fight and already possessed helpful passive abilities.

Otherwise, a typical cultivator in Layer 3 might never even touch the double digits in his lifetime. So, the allure of 100 Godly Points was already significant enough to make a move.

Nevertheless, there were also the two passive abilities the baby had been awarded. They weren't obtained but were rewarded by the Sub-Realm itself. In short, they were powerful abilities. Gajor could very well raise the baby like his son and obtain a powerful ally in the future.

Considering the sheer impact of the names, the two passive abilities should definitely be insanely powerful. After all, Krune's most powerful passive ability was named Ocean Heart. On the other hand, the baby had a passive ability titled Ocean Affinity.

Whether it was related to wielding the powers in the water, living in the water, manipulating the water and so on, Krune wasn't sure. In any case, what he was sure about was the fact that no matter what, Ocean Affinity would be an ability on par with his Ocean Heart.

Not to mention the baby's second passive ability, Solar Breathing. Krune wasn't able to guess as to what this ability entailed. No matter what, he decided to consider them as abilities on par with his Ocean Heart, if not superior.

Having seen the way they were named, the Seamstress frowned, muttering, ”If we consider them to be on par with your Ocean Heart, their two abilities will make him overpowered in this layer once he grows up into an adult.”

”That is very well a possibility. But it's not guaranteed,” Krune replied, ”Remember that there's something in the Tertiary Landmass. The one who possesses that is the one who would dominate this place.”

”The active ability!” The Seamstress nodded in realization as she frowned. ”No matter what, this baby should never fall in the hands of Gajor.”

”You don't need to say it twice.” Krune nodded as he spoke after some thought, ”We have to grow stronger first. Say, is there any way you can track more of these Motor Fishes? We'll need greater mobility than them if we wish to target them. Otherwise, it's impossible if we were to have a water bottle.”

He gazed at the Seamstress as he continued, ”At present, your mobility in water is no different to any average pirate. You're better skilled, but you can also be overwhelmed. After all, you're just a mortal. You have your limits.”

”What you said makes sense.” The Seamstress nodded before asking, ”But, are you really able to enhance a passive ability to its peak?”

”Yes.” Krune nodded as he replied, ”Though, the process might take anywhere from a month to three months. Also, I need at least four Motor Fishes and two Water Essence to make it happen. After that, we would still need two more Motor Fishes for our boat.”
