Chapter 197 To Even the Odds

The , Daniel found himself at double of the depth he was previously in He was about to swim back to the surface, when a sudden ht Unfortunately, his vieas now coht could not reach the lakebed anyot to the surface, the ns of it being controlled by a living being It was only after Daniel reached the surface once again, and was only a few ed to see as actually going on

The waters were divided into h the sky like blue dragons These columnar vorticessoed from the surface of the water, and he found hiroup of friends, he finally found out as actually happening

There were seven waterspouts of at least fifteen ht up and to ical events usually would Instead, they quickly dashed through the sky in pursuit of a multicolored flash, which in turn adopted ies to try and escape the encircleinated froed under the surface of the water right in the middle of it, was the red carp, and of course, the multicolored flash that desperately tried to avoid the various columns of water, was the hawk-like beast, which had likely found itself in a bad position due to Daniel's sudden actions

The reason why the red carp did not fight back against the hawk-like beast in the past was not because it was less powerful, but for a much simpler reason The powerful winds swiped the clouds that for the At the same time, they chipped away at the water that was already part of the pond's body of water, decreasing it in size bit by bit

Whenever the red carp had tried to attack the hawk-like beast, the latter would always play defensive, and whenever it could not counter the former's attack, it would at least make him waste a bit of the precious water that was left in the pond This had happened multiple tied The addition of a water sphere allowed the red carp to use its full powers, as it did not need to worry about wasting water, and at the sa the size of his very own habitat

The hawk-like beast had tried to run away fro when he noticed that the surface of the water was slowly rising, but unfortunately, for how fast it was capable of flying in the sky, the red carp was in no way slohen in the water

Daniel observed as the seven constructed vortices were carefully controlled so that they could prevent the hawk-like beast fro to safety That was the job of at least three of the four, attacked it from four different directions at all times

Ideally, Daniel would have helped the red carp in killing the hawk-like beast, but their feud was one that went on for centuries, and all things considered, it was not his place to meddle in it

The chase went on for a few more minutes, until finally, the hawk-like beast decided to stop running and to finally fight back Its wings opened wide, showing the spectacular colors, and ispan of at least sixtyabout each of the inco hit head on against his back, but then, it used the s, and create dozens of squalls that dashed towards the place where the red carp was currently in

These squalls of wind penetrated into the water like a hot knife through butter, and their motion was not interrupted by the water in the very least Unfortunately, the red carp was literally a fish in the water, and its agility allowed it to avoid the hawk-like beast with as much ease as the latter avoid its own

In a ht turned into a battle of endurance

Both of the sides had an advantage The red carp's advantage was that the hawk-like beast had nowhere to rest, and therefore, it was forced into a constant state of physical stress, as it needed to keep itself up in the air, while also avoiding and attacking without stopping On the other hand, the advantage of the hawk-like beast, was that the movements of the red carp were limited to the surface of the water, and therefore it was easier to attack fro two hours, where aquatic dragons were sliced up by powerful blades of wind, columns of water rose from the surface of the water, and chased the flashes of colored lights, and the agitated elee into a storm of immense proportions

The hawk-like beast was now in a disadvantage, and due to his gradually increasing tiredness, he ended upto a lower altitude whenever it tried to avoid the relentless attacks of the red carp Now at only twentybeast needed to use a lot y, as the attacks that torot to the water

Suddenly, just when the hawk-like beast found itself gliding just a few meters above the surface of the water, five columns of water exploded from under its body, and quickly started to fall apart, but as they did, instead of dripping back onto the lake, the water turned into a large and thick do beast

The beast was alerted, but not panicked It wrapped its wings tightly against its body, and with a rotating h the encircleh it But the moment it shook off the water on its feathery body, a thick aquatic dragon hit it squarely against its chest, causing it to lose consciousness, and to dive straight towards the water

The ancient red carp gave up control over the colu hawk-like beast Then, it looked upwards, and ee mouth was now opened, and showed the insides of its pink mouth, inside which the hawk-like beast could easily fit
