I'm a Stingray?

These countless gems had all formed themselves into one, big spike.

Considering that the orb was supposed to be under this cavern’s floor, he expected that this fat, meter long spike would just crash against that same place.

But these gems proved once more that they were enemies, as they directly charged towards the hero at full speed instead!

It was definitely odd to see a spike float around that fast, as there simply was not a bigger creature that tossed it…

But regardless of the whats and hows, he understood that it was a stupidly bad idea to stand in front of this spike’s path.

So he relied on the one and the most dependable reaction which often dug him out of trouble.

He flapped his fins against the waters once, and instantly flung himself not one but two meter upwards.

The large spike whistled underneath him afterwards, so he could clearly understand by now that these creatures did not intend to be helpful.

That was why the hero wanted to get back in control. He had been tricked by these darned things, but at least now he fully understood that they were beyond stubborn.

For similar reasons the hero wanted to attain control over these troublesome opponents, and he had a short plan which enforced such a goal.

In complement to that idea, he shouted. “Soul snare!”

His soul still felt strong enough to halt these enemies on their spot, as the energy he had absorbed from these same enemies was beyond large.

But contrary to all expectations, he did not feel that strong thud which occurred after he forced a soul connection.

He felt nothing, and the big spike in front of him continued to roam free. Thanks to that same matter it charged towards the hero once more!

Timmy managed to move out of the way again, thanks to the fact that his speed and strength had both been upgraded a couple of times.

But that fact regardless, he still felt terrified.

Just what could these shards have done, in order to completely deflect a soul-oriented attack?

He was completely clueless regarding the matter, but he surely didn’t want to allow such a large spike to swim around loosely.

Likewise he screamed a command before these enemies could get too close.

“Soul boost,” He pitched.

And awaited to absorb an unholy amount of energy from these enemies once more.

But contrary to what he wished for, such a thing did not happen!

The meter long spike swam towards him, and it was apparent that this time this darn thing aimed to be more hostile.

Timothy did not know what to do for a few seconds, but an idea was swift to envelop his head afterwards.

“Looks like I can’t use soul powers anymore,” He mumbled.

And after that point he swam towards the same spike, but this time he planned to unleash quite a different attack.

Timothy put in effort to spin across the waters as he swiftly swam forwards.

All of this effort was put in just so he could yell, “Blue moon!”

In response to the plan in question, the waters around him twisted just a bit more.

At least enough to create a thin and elongated air-tunnel in front of him.

The opposing spike entered that same tunnel as it bashed its very tip forward.

And within that second, blue particles were reaped out of the air-tunnel’s watery walls, before they were turned into a meter wide blue mist!

Such a direct attack had forced the spike to change its course of action.

Even though it seemed like one solid force to be reckoned with, the creatures who formed this thing were still a bunch of souls who cooperated.

They could get dizzy of course. Which was why this fat spike headed directly towards the ground.

Its route had been changed. But even though this felt like a win which would feed the hero’s ego, something expected was swift to happen. contemporary romance

The spike’s fat tail, which was located at the very bottom of this odd contraption, flapped itself forward.

Such a result didn’t initially look like a large problem in comparison to the other possible disaster, but it still was sure to pack a punch.

Likewise the hero had been hit by the same tail, right against the head!

He was forced to flip a few times while the same spike made its way towards the pool of that blue substance.

Thankfully he had undergone enough bodily durability upgrades through his other journeys, so the actual impact didn’t really cause any damage worth considering.

As for the decent quantity of enemies, their crash against the pool was strong enough to generate an ear-piercing sound!

It was loud enough to make him think that he truly would lose his hearing senses this time, but thankfully such a fate didn’t envelop him.

Tim shook his head a few times to push the dizziness away, and now he had the opportunity to analyse what that loud crash was all about.

He was shocked once he witnessed that the very flooring which had been underneath the pool, had literally split open!

Such a scene was beyond stunning, but he didn’t plan to be clumsy once more, this was not the time to observe details.

Likewise he approached the three-meter wide crack with caution, and embraced another method as a safety measure.

“Soul snare,” He whispered.

The actual hope was that these enemies had roughed themselves up enough to be conquered once more.

But Timmy became disappointed as he didn't feel a connection with these tens of enemies.

Such an aspect raised his anxiety up more than he could handle, but he did not back away.

By now he expected that countless gems would bounce out of the crack to put up a fight, but such a scene did not happen.

The system decided that it was a good time to point out, [I can’t sense any souls, they’re probably permanently dead by now]

“How would you know that? These things are menaces.” The hero rightfully debated.
