Chapter 602 - Varian [8]: Red Monster

In the vast valley covered by fog, there was a small lake. Its water shone with a silvery light since it housed a luminous fish.

This fish was capable of morphing into a sea creature scary enough to decimate even a peak level 7.

In fact, it had already killed two humans and severely injured three.

It had already garnered a scary reputation.

'The Red Monster', it was called.

But at this moment, the fish spasmed as lightning coursed throughout its body. It flapped its fins and swung its tail to reach the edge of the lake.

But it was no use.

At the edge of the lake was a golden bamboo. The bamboo's tip was dipped into the lake and beams of golden lightning entered the lake and electrocuted the fish.

Even though the fish was strong, even it couldn't stand the current flooding its body. The lake's water which helped it before now turned hostile.

Every drop of water it came into contact with carried a bit of lightning. After denial, the luminous fish was forced to acknowledge that water wasn't its safe haven it always was.

However, it didn't change anything.

Its morpher entity wouldn't be as strong if it went out of water. Then...

"Fish fry won't be bad," Varian muttered as he sat on the shore. His right hand was completely in the form of lightning and he used it to dip the bamboo into the lake.

The lightning bamboo had way more lightning than he expected. Assimilating it just like that was impossible.

So, Varian searched for a place to discharge the excess current.

After hearing about the scary red monster, here he was.

'I think I'm kind, aren't I?' Varian rubbed his chin. He really was too kind.

If the silverfish knew his thoughts, it'd surely disagree. In fact, it'd invent even curses just for him.

But it didn't.

So, all it could do was pick the lesser evil in its situation.

Splash!N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.

The lake's water burst as the silverfish jumped towards the shore. Its silver scales shone in the moonlight.

Varian looked up at the fish in mid-air that was currently heading for him.

At the first moment, it was a palm-sized fish, but the very next second, it grew to the size of a car.

"..." Varian opened his mouth in shock and rubbed his stomach. "I guess I'll have enough for three days."

Raa!

Varian displayed healing higher than even a high level 7 heal fighter!

His blood on the left side was still affected, but not as intensely as on the right side.

Then, he switched the morphing to his right side.

As the right side's blood cooled down, the left side's blood was agitated again. But since it was beaten down once, it couldn't reach the same level easily.

Varian alternated his plantae form between right and left a couple of times until the fish reached him.

The whole time for everything had been less than two seconds, but other than heal fighters, no one could've survived those two seconds.

Not only did Varian survive, except for the low reserves of prana, he's perfectly fine!

Raa!

The fish opened its mouth and the blood in his body was agitated once again. This time, it tried to directly leave his body and enter the fish's mouth.

Varian snickered and clenched his fist.

A huge shockwave swept the lake and caused almost a third of its water to blow away.

Then, Varian's fist turned into pure lightning.

Zzzz!

The air of the calm night went from freezing cold to scorching hot in a second and due to the sudden heating up of air, an explosion occurred, causing the second third of the lake's water to be emptied.

Then, an invisible force attached to Varian's arm.

As he punched out, the invisible force pushed his arm and increased the speed of his punch by a notch.

Finally, right before his fist connected with the fish, Varian's eyes flashed and the fish's eyes stagnated slightly.

The fish's concentration was broken.

Boom!

It seemed like a simple punch, but when the red monster's eyes widened.

Its scales broke under the lightning, its skull broke due to the punch aided by both physical and telekinetic strength.

With a thud, the creature's battered body crashed onto the lake.

Varian rubbed his hands.

Before he absorbed the lightning bamboo, a short meal wouldn't hurt.

But wouldn't other monsters be attracted if he set up a fire, cooked tender fish meat, and let the aroma spread?

Varian's lips curled up as he reached for the fish.

That's exactly what he wanted.
