19 Chapter 18 (1/2)
Before anything, Leon went to the ocean and checked for enemies, a few more of those fish had appeared, but he killed them. At that point in time, there was no meaning in hesitating. The war between humans and monsters had already started, and his hands were already dirty with blood.
Enduring the throbbing pain in his left arm, Leon washed his body in the ocean. He didn't know if the blood would attract other creatures, but he couldn't care less, he didn't want to stay dirty with their blood. After that, he fixed the position of his arm so that it could heal. As if Leon had become a monster himself, his arm returned to normal after ten seconds. That was the power of the recovery.
”Don't think about it, don't think about it…”
Leon returned to the corpses of the monsters he had killed and grabbed their tridents. Those would be useful if others try to attack him, but first, he had to get used to that weapon. Now that his head was cool, he noticed that the monsters were quite short. They were only 1,20 meters tall, and their body wasn't that impressive. Despite that, they could jump five meters height easily. Their tridents were on the short side, so Leon would be able to use both in each hand. But first, he had to discover what that blue glow in them was.
”Come to think of it… I think I saw a monster similar to these in a game. What was the name again?”
Sahuagin's Trident
It grants the user the skill Water Ball.
Cost: 05 mana
Cooldown time: 05 seconds.
While Leon was busy trying to refresh his memories, the analysis skill activated. Sahuagin was the name of those monsters, but to think that a weapon could grant someone the ability to use magic… Leon couldn't but think that he just wasted time learning all the skills. However, based on his experience, he was pretty sure that skill wasn't that convenient.
”I have to check…”
Leon used the skill, a water ball flew from the tip of the trident and hit the tree he chose. However, unlike his earth sphere, it didn't even damage the tree that he hit, it only slightly shook. Not only that, but Leon also didn't learn the skill, and he couldn't control it either. It was like a gun; he just has to aim and pull the trigger. It was convenient, but that wouldn't help him with his goal to go back home.
”Tch… at least it is sharper than my spear.”
Now that Leon had three very sharp spears, he could work with more ease to improve his shelter. However, the only thing he was thinking about was the possibility of another attack done by those monsters. He was in the middle of the Pacific ocean, but it was clear that those monsters had an underwater base nearby.
”A fence won't help if more of those monsters come, and it will take too much time to build it… I guess I will have to move to the center of the forest and create several traps around.”
