My Angelic System

He didn't even get the time to collect the shark's orb when two more black sharks came toward him. This time, however, both of them were faster, making things more complicated.

One of the sharks went to bite him, which the latter managed to dodge right in time, though, the other shark was ready for that, and when it saw that Kye left an opening, it swam toward him with razor-sharp teeth.

Kye managed to see the second shark from the corner of his eyes and spun on himself, thus dodging the bite. He then immediately went to attack it, only for the first shark to come biting him again.

Kye dodged and took some distance. 'It's harder than I thought. They are covering for the other as if they trust their back completely,' Kye thought with a smile. 'But if they think that I only have my sword.'

Kye swam toward them with only one shark coming toward him while the other kept its distance to attack the moment it saw an opening. However, this time, when Kye was within a 5 meters distance from the shark, he used his Holy ray, which hit the shark right on its jaw.

*Arghyghyg*

[-1 HP]

The black shark got distracted by the pain, letting Kye ample time to swing his sword two times skillfully to cut the shark. 'This sword is so sharp, I can't believe it,' He thought with excitement.

The still-living shark was surprised by this sudden ray and got angry when it saw its companion dying under its very eyes. So it charged toward Kye without thinking. And this time, since it would only be a waste of HP to use his Holy ray, he waited before dodging the shark's bite, followed by three slashes, thus cutting it successfully.

"Pheww, it was harder than I thought," Kye said to himself as he took the two orbs of those two sharks, before swimming toward the first he had killed earlier to harvest its orb as well. "I harvest the orb, but I don't have anywhere to stock them, nor do I have any use for them now," After thinking for a moment, he decided to let go of the monster's orb. He did it with a heavy heart since it was free to loot, but it couldn't be helped at this rate.

And he had two reasons for that.

First, because he didn't have a bag like a few days ago. He could carry a few with him but until where? He would have a harder time fighting with some orbs in one arm. Not to add that he was sure that he would have to face stronger enemies that wouldn't be as easy as those ordinary rank black sharks.

As for the second reason, it was precise because of that that he throw the orbs away. It was true that once he will come back to the military, he would be able to forge items with them. But he would be far stronger than he was now, so those low-rank orbs wouldn't be as great as those he could get in the future. For example, if he could get a rare rank monster's orb, or if we're a little more crazy and lucky, a special rank monster's orb, then he would be far stronger and get far more benefits than with an ordinary rank orb.

So after letting go of the three orbs on him, Kye went away from this area since there weren't any more sharks coming toward him.

Not even five hundred meters away from his previous position, he found three sharks fighting what looked like a strange monster. It looked like a dog, but instead of its limbs and paw, it had strange tentacles. Four to be more precise, and all of them ended with a sharp blade.

'Those sharks won't have any chance of winning against this strange dog. One strike of the latter equals four slashes, while the sharks, even though are superior, are still inferior to their tentacles," Kye didn't take more time to think and rushed toward them. The three sharks have their back exposed to Kye, while the strange dog was too focused on those sharks. So Kye swam toward the one on the left, and once he was five meters away from it, he used his holy ray.

[-1 HP]

Since Kye was still swimming while the ray was heading toward the shark, the latter didn't even have the time to cry in pain that it was already dead by Kye's sword. Underwater, Kye was almost as fast as his ray, so by the time the pain rushed to the shark's brain, it was already dead.

[You killed an ordinary rank black shark, +150 EXP]

The two other sharks got surprised by that and were furious, but this feeling only made them meet their doom. Kye swam toward the one in the middle while the strange dog slashed the right one four times rapidly.

[You killed an ordinary rank black shark, +150 EXP]

'Two out of three is already good,' Kye thought as he stepped back to not let the dog attack him. And he did well because the moment it killed the shark on the right, the strange dog swung its tentacles toward him.

While it was in motion to retract its tentacles, Kye activated his angel's eyes. He didn't know if it would be useful, but it wasn't as if it consume anything, so he decided to use them as much as possible. Who knows? Maybe he would be able to discern which slash is real and which isn't.

So Kye swam toward the dog in a defensive position to be ready to parry the tentacles.

*Feww*

*Pshin*

*Feww*

*Pshin*

Kye managed to parry all the slashes, though, he was surprised by the strength of each blow. He had the impression that each swing carried the weight of a 50kg bag. So he felt his arms get numb a little because of that. The dog then retracted back its tentacles before slashing again.

This time Kye managed to dodge two of them while parrying another and getting hit by the last.

'Sh*t, it hurt like hell," Kye cursed internally as he could feel his left arm regenerate rapidly. Thankfully the cut wasn't too deep, otherwise, his left arm would have been useless for quite a long time. Time that he wasn't willing to lose.

So Kye stepped back as the dog retracted its tentacles once again as well. Seems like I found something. I just need to test my theory to be sure.

Kye began swimming, but instead of going toward his opponent, he circle it. The dog, swung his lags-like blade multiple times, every time dodging them more easily and easily. Kye was beginning to see the pattern behind each slash, and he couldn't help but feel that his angel's eyes had to do something with it. Though it was neither the time to think about that nor he could focus on that since he had to test his theory.

Kye kept swimming around the strange dog while the latter kept swinging its four legs, before retracting them to swing them again just after that.

'Seems like I was right," Kye smiled as this time, he stop swimming around the monster and rushed toward it. With the adrenaline, he didn't even sense his wings flapping a little. Though, it was still too small of a flap to be considered like a real wings' flap.
