Reborn To Become A Heavenly Serpent

Back on the small Island. Now, Hiro is attempting to get used to his recently changed body as he rolled around on the ground... wrecking the small island into a flat area. After a couple of seconds of shaking around eventually, he halted... leaving behind a ravaged island.

"Going downstream... and then hunt for points along the way. I doubt there will be a stronger presence than me in this small river so I dont have to worry about that."

After saying so...

Hiro slowly snaked his body onward into the river as his enormous and lengthy body plowed down a lengthy gully on the small island as if the island was split in half. Due to Hiro's size and weight, the gully is roughly 30-50 centimeters deep and 1.5 meters wide.

Passing into the warm river Hiro slowly swims downstream into the unknown as he leaned his gaze around admiring the elegance of aquatic panorama.

Knowing that in his past life he had never been able to glimpse such scenery so in this new life he decided to slowly do things that he was unable to do before.

The magnificent submerged plant fortress whirled around its leafy greens as the small creature around it sheltered themselves.

Little did he understand if the river of his present area were to be discerned from above... there a giant 20 meters long shadow could be distinguished zigzagging down the river.

Such a horrifying monster... even in his past world such a serpent would be classified as an ancient fossil.

After 5 hours of never-ending swimming eventually, the river began to become wider and deeper.

From 50 meters wide it becomes 200 meters and from 8 meters deep to a whopping 30-40 meters deep.

The underwater view also differed... numerous rocks and plants could be sighted scattered around throughout the whole picture as each corner of the river is crammed with colorful submerged plant fortresses.

Hiro gradually swam ahead as he descended toward the bottom. Doing so he glimpsed myriad quantities of fish, but a little bit distinct from what he had hunted before.

"Woah... they are extremely bigger than the fish that I had hunted before, ... wait does that mean the further downstream I went the bigger the creature will become?... oh yeah the same rules apply to the forest as well. The deeper you went the stronger the beast becomes."

"Anyway, I'm gonna try to kill this group of fish right in front of me... "

While mumbling this Hiro gradually plop his body flat behind a slightly large rock as he peeped towards a group of fish in front of him.

"The biggest of them are close up to 4 meters long... but this one doesn't seem to have razors like teeth or anything. Just a normal fish that got a little bit fat I guess. As for the rest, they look none threatening at all. It seems like the fish that I had encountered before was a different breed. Anyway, there are only 30 of them... let's just do it."

While saying this... the group of fish is gradually getting closer and closer with each second towards the rock.

Knowing this... Hiro instantly initiates the Aura of Fear. Out of nowhere, a vast red energy circle blasted forth... Crashing into the group of fish.

Instantly... as if incapacitated, all of them plummeted to the bottom while trembling seemingly being incapable to move.

Hiro examined for a little bit longer... wanting to see how long can this skill's influence last.

Roughly 30-40 minutes later none of the fish appeared to move as if they had been disabled forever. A simple meal had been served and now what's await them is death.

"This skill is surprisingly useful... no need to waste energy chasing around for victim. Now it's time to reap my harvest and keep hunting for more"

He mumbled to himself as he snaked forward...

About in the vast wilderness...

*Boom!* *Arghhh!!* *Arghhhh!!!*

Noises of blast and horrified shouting vibrated throughout the thickets. There... about in the forest, a group of soldiers is sprinting in a certain path as if something is hunting them from behind. Their faces are crammed with horror as they are scattered about like ċȯċkroaches.

one of the soldiers ran straight across the slim gap of large trees... galloping forward with no pause as his gun kept on firing towards the back.

The muzzles of his gun rippled with red flashes as he swung his arm around towards his back...

aiming randomly...

"Damn you monster! damn it! damn it! damn it!!!..."

He screamed with horror while he sprinted forward with no hesitancy.

as he was galloping...

*Rumbles!* *rumbles*

The ground began to tremble as an enormous shadow kept on broadening from behind him.

Closing in at such an awful momentum. Each stride of this beast forged a large footprint on the ground.. trees were shoved aside like breeze.

*Rumbles!* *cracks!* *Rumbles!*

"Fuck!!"

The soldier understood that the creature is chasing up to him closer and closer putting him with no alternative other than to...

"DAMN IT!! I WON'T DIE LIKE THIS! DAMNN YOU MONSTER!!"

He instantly swiveled his gaze behind towards the monster while snatching a round-shaped black object dangling on his waist.

The gun had already run out of ammo leaving him behind with no other option.

A firm look emerged on his face as he stood still like a solid rock. Staring the monster getting closer to him with each moment.

*Stomp!* *Stomp* *Stomp!*

Eventually, the colossal creature appeared before him... draping him with darkness as he gazed at the creature with ugliness and despair. Despite this... he clasped the oval-shaped object even harder than previously.

"It's either you or me you damn beast!. In the name of the great Founder! To the glory of the empire!"

He rapidly propels the oval-shaped object towards the creature with no hesitancy.

*BOOM!*
