Old Stingray - Chapter 36

Chapter 36 - Recruitment and solidarity (4)

As the enemy twirled a couple more times, Tim didn't bother waiting for a proper introduction and charged once more, swimming right under the fish's belly and delivering a couple of blows.

But yet it wasn't enough to bring this orange eye sour down, as it began to chase Timmy. He could hear this animal clapping it's jaws, that signified a grand fact. This was no clownfish, they can't be that dangerous.

Well it seemed thin like one,...

Old Stingray - Chapter 35

Chapter 35 - Recruitment and solidarity (3)

Through a bit of back and forth conversation, the dilemma of these dungeness crabs was laid out like a 10 foot tall canvas.

Well for a start, these 3 crabs are brothers who apparently have more family members hidden somewhere else.

But the main dilemma was the smaller family members that had fallen down a hole, that was rendered unnoticed by its surrounding coral.

5 of the smaller dungeness crabs had fallen down in a deep hol...

Chapter 34 - Recruitment and solidarity (2)

"We're where?" Tim questioned, his vision still captivated by the coral.

"This is lady Kaling, a needlefish like us." Amie described and the young stingray's vision became quickly captivated by a long fish 3 times his size.

Well the needlefish was about 2 feet long but compared to him, size was an advantage although not monstrous.

"What does he want?" Kaling asked, moody a bit as her tone struck harsh. "I have no food ...

Chapter 33 - Recruitment and solidarity (1)

"Really?" The lady long fish asked, and at the same time was thankful that Tim wasn't attacking them.

"Yes really. There are a lot of us, over 40 now I think." The young stingray answered and then tried to figure out other ways of convincing these fish.

His IQ wasn't really high although it faced an upgrade. Speechcraft is low as well, his only perk was nick naming things. But here such a skill would play no value unless these fish...

Old Stingray - Chapter 32

Chapter 32 - Long fish

About an hour more, Tim decided to take a further break. Swimming for so long has made his body ache, it was a lot of work for a stingray who stretched a bit over half a foot long (tail discluded).

His sleep bar has decreased, nothing alarming considering what he went on with just a few hours earlier, but it's still best to stop and sleep somewhere.

Especially since the way back he had to swim, along with the possible recruits, can swallow most of his ...

Old Stingray - Chapter 31

Chapter 31 - Task 6

It barely took a few minutes to get back to the sea snake. He had to stop once due to the clownfish he carried, slipping off his tail.

That was most definitely a nerve wrecker but he recovered quickly, although stabbing the slippery fucks a couple of times.

Making it back to Lili, he could notice the happiness on her face thanks to bringing not 1 but 3 of her favourite snacks.

Food, yes that can be labelled as the best way to win someone's heart. Bu...

Old Stingray - Chapter 30

Chapter 30 - Clownfish (2)

Feeling a bit tired of all the moving around, Tim took a moment to stalk the fighting clownfishes.

Stalk is a harsh word although he wanted to kill them both, he's watching the show instead, that's a better word to describe it.

In front of him, the prey was raging against each other, one would think this was a boxing match for 25,000$.

Although the same in size, the upper advantage in battle seemed to shift every few seconds.

One clownf...

Chapter 29 - Clownfish

"What kinda food do you like lady Lili?" Timothy asked as he made sure to keep his distance.

Based on what happened a few days ago when he first helped someone in need, one would think that Tim wouldn't help strangers anymore.

But this lady seemed sweet and wasn't asking for anything but food, what trickery could lie behind it? One thing that pulled the boy's heart strings was the fact that this lady was an elderly.

Who would refuse helping an el...

Old Stingray - Chapter 28

Chapter 28 - Damaged

After a while, Tim woke up to the system notifying. [Sleep bar = 30/35]

Most definitely unusual for him ever since arriving in this new body but we can't ignore that he didn't have better luck before it as well, Tim had a lot of sleeping disorders before.

Moving around his fins a little bit, stretching them out, he thought. "So this is how it feels like to get a good night's sleep?"

Well it wasn't exactly a full night's sleep since the bar wasn't [...

Chapter 27 - Aquatic nature

After Koob left to get Marlo, the situation became calmer by the passing second.

These two lovely stingrays don't know each other and Konon doesn't speak or understand their language.

After the mandatory questions asked regarding what happened here and how long she has been suffering, other topics were shunned away.

Until Tim remembered one grand fact, "This is awkward, I don't even know your name."

"Oh right, I'm Dana." The lady sting...

Old Stingray - Chapter 26

Chapter 26 - Damaged

Following Tim the stingray, they've squeezed away from the enemy and bought a grand perk, which is time.

They were still about half a meter under the coral, using the twists, turns and openings to their disposition, safety was no longer a problem.

But when one doesn't have to think about safety, other topics have the freedom to open in their mind.

Although communication between the three stood dim, Tim couldn't help murmuring out his thoughts. "Why...

Old Stingray - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 - My name is…

Quick to calculate what would happen if the young stingray kept swimming in that same direction, Tim decided to take a different base of action.

His eyeballs rolling around for solutions, he spotted an opportunity hidden amongst the coral.

His IQ wasn't necessarily large enough to become an expert battle strategist, but we can't devalue the solution he filtered out amongst all other choices.

Taking a peek back at Harold the eel and at the sam...

Old Stingray - Chapter 24

Chapter 24 - IQ

After piling up a bit more stamina, Tim made his way out of the deep hole he fell into earlier and took a peek of his surroundings for the sake of spotting Alba.

Fair to say, no luck. The lady had enough time to get out of here even if she swam slowly, all odds were to her favour except one, Tim knows where she's going.

The far north of this coral reef, that's the prime goal at least but chances are they won't meet each other as this reef is at least a few ki...

Old Stingray - Chapter 23

Chapter 23 - Supply pack

Arising from the hole he slipped into, Tim's vision was captivated by a familiar figure. It was none other than Alba, the same stingray lady who held an entire rant with Marlo.

"System?" Tim interrupted, tad spooking the lady and forced her to swim a meter away.

Once she turned around and spotted Tim, the first thing the lady hollered was. "The fuck do you want? Get out of my way, I will go get more recruits than you!"

Not weighing enough impor...

Old Stingray - Chapter 22

Chapter 22 - Pregnancy

The bars were just raised higher, by word it's easy to determine that the task Tim was assigned to demands someone bigger and more powerful.

Because of that, Tim was almost accompanied by his siblings, it would make sense. But considering that his siblings didn't have a system, them tagging along would just slow down the whole process.

Tim would need to save their asses all the time and chances are it wouldn't be enough to keep them in one piece...

Old Stingray - Chapter 21

Chapter 21 - Siblings

Fighting that eel was quite a rollercoaster of emotions but yet the young man doesn't regret it regardless of the health lost because of it.

Losing that health although it was already low, felt like a dim compensation when we consider the soothing taste of revenge.

Harold now had several holes in him, that was enough to fulfill a quarter of the revenge he wanted to take. But seeing that stingray die tingled Tim's revenge senses further.

This case ...

Old Stingray - Chapter 20

Chapter 20 - The grand offer (3)

Charging towards the eel at a built up speed that crossed 10 meters in just 1 second, the young boy couldn't help appreciating how his tail wasn't burning upon every wiggle.

Which is odd because his health reduced, so the pains should come back? They should but at the same time shouldn't, the food helped heal his damaged tail and now the pain of losing health just spread through his entire body at a barely restricting pace.

One way or the oth...

Old Stingray - Chapter 19

Chapter 19 - The grand offer (2)

Going through the pile of food, Timmy found the snacks he loved the most... well more like what he knew about the most.

These species have made a good impact on him since they are one of the first species he ate once reincarnated in this new body.

Tim loved yelling out their name, we know them well, the leggy crabs a.k.a marble shrimps.

They are dead, so this didn't really give him system points, he didn't have that privilege her...

Old Stingray - Chapter 18

Chapter 18 - The grand offer

The hunting session has been going good so far but that doesn't necessarily mean that they are close to fixing the entire food shortage.

It's confusing why they didn't use the massive sardine storm that passed, to tame the food shortage but hey Timmy doesn't take part in the administration, he's just following the demand or in this case, the request.

One other thing specifically limiting them is the amount of food they can carry, regardles...

Old Stingray - Chapter 17

Chapter 17 - Hunting session (1)

And so after a ray of requests that portray proper scheduling, exchanged from one fish to the other, the group of 38 went out for their hunt, specifically the side quest to get food in this den.

Coral reefs tend to be full with life, and the little hunting grounds this group didn't have an understanding with, have been consumed by the shark invasion that stretched 6 months.

That sardine storm flocking the reef also contributed in to fo...

Old Stingray - Chapter 16

Chapter 16 - What Species?

Waking up, no doubt drowsy but eager to know more about progress, Tim hears the system announce it as a type of emergency. [Hunger bar 3/15]

Staggered but unwilling to move just yet, Tim questions. "That fast? I just took a nap."

Thankfully willing to be talkative about statistics this time, free of charge. The system takes a second before specifying.

[You've been asleep for quite a while now, your injuries drained energy, even while you were...

Chapter Thirty - Respect.

With his Sword on his hand, Athendurus walked out of the Bar standing tall with courage. Assuring that even though Tristan's attack was deadly, he survived it well enough to still stand on his feet.

Seeing that Athendurus was still on his feet, Tristan got ready to unleash another attack, calculated it before time. He can keep this going all day, Athendurus can never even reach him without becoming airborne.

But to Tristan, Aaron's, Auica's, Bacada'...

Chapter Twenty Nine - SLAP!

Trying not to panic at such a situation, she decided to put her trust at Dalerus about this rather sensitive matter. She had trust in his qualities and today she was even more convinced about it.

But she still had to make something very clear to him."I do not want any sort of problems slowing down our progress Dalerus. I entrust you to deal with this problem. Whatever needs to be done, do it."

"Even if it means giving out a little extra coin?" Ask...

Chapter Twenty Eight - Friend or Foe?

"Good for you." Replied Z with a little bit of a cocky tone, sarcastic too. But internally she had a lot of satisfaction, at this point Dalerus sounds too good to be true. She saw many men in her life, and only few respected her boundaries like he does.

She felt proud of him. Well proud isn't the best word to describe it, but she did feel more calm thanks to such replies as if she didn't just kill a man.

But she snapped out of her though...

Chapter Twenty Seven - Diplomatic Madman(2)

After Tristan BlackBear unleashed that devastating blow against everyone who opposed him, over 30 men on that Training Yard fled the scene, most of which were Ground Tappers.

Some even had both ankles sprained, so they had to crawl away while a lot rushed to care for their light to medium cuts before they lost too much blood.

Such a powerful Warrior, opposing so many people and winning without breaking a sweat. This fight will work...

Chapter Twenty six - Just what they Needed.

Dalerus opened the door of a specific shop which he was told to reach for emergency situations. Usually, Z searches for him and finds him. It rarely goes the other way around.

But since Dalerus is a big part of this depopulation project, he was told about her "work location" by Z herself. There aren't many people in this project after all.

Calmly walking in to avoid attention from passersby and or Guards, he found himself in a scen...

Chapter Twenty Five - Chapel Master Andonil Wehe(2)

King Mendebal has a strong point which is hard to challenge, especially by someone who didn't expect such a strong comeback. "How could a fool who plays with maids all day, say something this intelligent?" The Chapel Master thought.

The rumours about King Mendebal's fancy towards the maids are quite well known, spread wide. Furthermore, the Chapel officials simply described King Mendebal Griffin as a fool with a crown. So negotia...

Chapter Twenty Four - Chapel Master Andonil Wehe(1)

"Chapel Master. What do i owe the honor of your visit?" Faked King Mendebal a smile. He wasn't happy to see this fool of a Chapel Master at all (A lot even claim that he isn't worthy of his title, but what can King Mendebal say about that?), furthermore he simply can't just break relation with the Zamerians yet. Not with Underpopulation still remaining as a strong problem, he had to remain Mild-Mannered.

Chapter Twenty Three - Diplomatic Madman(1)

"You have the chance to back down from this, and accept that you are wrong." Whispered Athendurus as he was quaking on his Combat boots out of anger, a foot away from Tristan BlackBear, looking at each other eye to eye, rather unbreakable.

Neither of them backed down from the stare off. Athendurus' pride was rather touched no doubt, taught his place by a Ground Tapper. It is no doubt hard to live down. "If you do i'll let you keep one of...
