1457 The Might Of A Puny Being
Holding his breath, Landon stared at the creatures that now surrounded him.
When compared to them, he was an ant!
The sun's rays provided some light to an extent.
But if one looked downwards, they would only see nothing but darkness.
These paths were deep and far away from land.
One man, 12 giant boggles, looking at him provocatively.
Time seemed to have frozen when the staring contest began.
But seconds more, one of the boggles let out a bubbly sound, making the first move.
The fierce creature swam like lightning, opening its massive mouth to swallow him whole.
As if infected with adrenaline, Landon raised his fist at the mischievous thing.
Bam!
He landed a solid hit at its upper lip.
Bwwwww~~
The creature shook in disbelief, wondering how a tiny being could hand such a deadly blow.
With its skin, such a move could do nothing to it.
Yet, the creature felt the immense pain travel to its entire insides like an electric current.
F***!
What was going on here?
The other boggles looked at the scene suspiciously.
Their buddy won't be pretending, right? How can this puny being pack a powerful punch?
They didn't believe it.
.
With vicious stares, they moved toward Landon yet again. This time, they came in packs from all directions.
The tiny being was standing next to the ship as though saying: If you want to attack this ship, then you have to go through me.
The being had placed its fins (hands) on its waist and raised its shoulders in a defense mode.
They, sea creatures, lived by understanding certain behaviors.
Once a creature took a defensive stance, it was either in preparation for the battle or to show its might and dominance.
And as proud, deadly creatures of the seas, they took his behavior as provocation.
And sure enough, they swung all 2 tails viciously while floating on the same spot.
Their eyes narrowed, their bodies tilted in one direction, showing their intimidating tail motion to the enemy.
It was as if they were smacking an invisible floor to show their might. This behavior was also similar to a monkey beating its chest.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
They acted in synchronization, as though they rehearsed for this money all their lives.
Some fishes swimming not too far away immediately made U-turns in the opposite direction.
Please. They were just Cannon Fodders in these deep waters. So don't drag them into this.
The lizard-horse fish the size of a human, the transparent catfish... So many creatures of the sea nearby moved away after seeing the battle formation from the boggles.
But the person who should be worrying wasn't even bothered at all.
Landon raised his brow, swinging his fist provocatively too.
What?
So only they were allowed to show off their synchronized tail taps?
Well, he too had an arrogant showy display. And that was rotating one of his arms as though getting ready for battle.
Br?
The boggles were even more annoyed to see his arrogance.
'Since you like this ship so much, then don't mind if we mess it up!'
.
1, 2, 3!
The boggles rushed to the ship with full force.
They were going to flip it upside down once and for all!
But how could Landon let them do so?
Raising his fist and leaning back slightly, he sent a deadly blow to the nearest boggle.
Bam!
The Boggle found itself falling into the abyss but couldn't do anything to stop its fall.
The force from Landon's blow had sent it flying.
But this was just the beginning.
Twisting his body, he kicked another like a soccer ball, landed a few more punches on others, swam a little distance to the other end of the ship, smacked another boggle in the face, and continued like so.
Bam! Bam! Pah! Bam! Bam!
The boggles had never seen anything like this.
What was he? Who was he? Why was he?
They began to wonder if he was different from the other beings of his kind that they had destroyed severally.
He looked the same as the others. So why was his strength so big?
No matter how much they thought, the boggle brain power could not support such high thinking.
Landon did under backflips, dodged their attacks, gave many of his own, and kept the ship safe.
He was joking when he meant they wouldn't be able to get close.
Like lightning, he could swim from one end of the massive shop to another bottom in seconds.
It was almost as though he cloned himself because at some point, the boggles began seeing his afterimages.
(0_0)
Eh?... They couldn't have eaten some illuminating seaweed, would they?
How come this one being was now turning into 50 or more?
Landon was brutal, increasing strength the more he played.
And soon, he not only attacked the boggles going after the main ship but also attacked those on other ships like a God.
'Get over here!'
He dragged one from an extreme end, throwing it to the others like bowling pins
Steer-Rike!
He knocked them far away with his first throw.
The boggles found themselves heading down but couldn't do anything to stop the motion.
Landon was hell-bent on sending them too far down after injuring them heavily.
He didn't intend to kill them since there were indeed precious creatures.
Though annoying, their value was there.
.
Looking at the scene, he inwardly nodded, seeing the clear open seas once more except for little creatures moving about.
At this point, even the other boggles he didn't attack fled the scene after coming to terms with their loss.
The blanket of mist has been cleared from their eyes. And now, they dared not stay any longer.
Will they stop attacking humans after this? Not a chance!
They would still do it again and again and again if they had their way.
But that was not Landon's concern.
Feeling his breath run short, he finally popped his head out for the first time since his dive.
"Your majesty! Your majesty!"
Many exclaimed in joy, seeing their hero emerge.
The battle was finally over.
"Quick! Quick! Get his majesty out of the waters!"
