I'm a Stingray?

Chapter 266: Azelaq

And the massively unsettling sight simply continued to unravel itself quite unapologetically. It did, until a faint ray of light broke out of it with a limited pace.

But right after that, came an explosion from the very same source of problems!

The gem's entire outer layer had completely shattered; and whatever substance was caged in the inner layer, exploded forward and latched itself in cooperation with the silver god's skin!

This white-light was growing stronger in radiance! It's shine was piercing through the hero's eyes, he had to keep them closed for the sake of soothing the burn!

Such a tremendously confusing procedure continued for a good half minute, and Timothy had utterly no clue of how to handle this problem!

He wanted to approach closer in order to stab the enemy once more, but that seemed like a bad idea. Especially after considering that the light was only growing stronger by every passing second.

This same light had cut through other fish before, with evident ease. It cut through them as if slicing air, their bodies were utterly ignored by the sheer power of this light; and that was what the hero feared, he didn't want to suffer a similar fate.

So the best option was to just wait and be ready. Whatever dilemma this eyesore would bring, he felt ready for it.

But finally and thankfully, the light was dimming down right now. However, what he did not expect was the enemy's emergence.

This darned pufferfish was floating above the gem flooring, as if nothing had happened. His deep stab-wounds were completely gone, and there was another detail that became difficult to skip.

The silver god's skin and aura was more radiant than ever. It would make one think that a true divine had fallen from the sky, and right into this pufferfish's body!

His silver skin was sparkling and the stare he carried was enough to suppress the simple sea-pancake, which made it even more difficult to comprehend this whole emergence!

Thankfully, the painful silence was broken by the enemy's side, who yelled. "Fool! You have no idea what power you are messing with!"

The hero's anxiety was through the ceiling at this moment, especially since waves of white-light were still circling around the enemy's body, even though its colours were several shades of transparency.

But he refused to let this self proclaimed god gain the opportunity, to see him scared or worried.

That was why he answered back, "I killed you just a minute ago, I'll do it again."

Such a sentence was uttered casually, but he didn't feel fulfilled with just that.

So he had to add another thing, "No creepy light will be enough, you aren't a god as long as you can be stabbed."

For once, Tim managed to come up with a good comeback. It's root intent was to irritate the enemy, and such a goal was utterly achieved; because the other side of the stick was simply fuming with rage.

Such lack of control from the enemy's side, was not something that the sea-disk hoped for. But he had spotted this detail and decided to use it as an opportunity, that was why he got ready to initiate another attack!

But... it seemed like the latter had another idea, one of which mainly circled around the unexpected.

At first, the pufferfish said. "A god ha? I'll give you a god!"

And then a holler reverberated through the same animal's jaws, "Come to me, Azelaq!"

The hero was utterly lost after that point, because this was the first time he heard of such a name, but the puffer didn't fail to drag attention away from that same name; as the scene that happened next, was far more thought provoking!

Not one but four gems, had their outer walls completely shattered in an instance! And afterwards, every bit of light that was stored between these meter wide gems, were flying towards the silver god!

Before that scene could have been fully understood, another six gems had broken loose and had their light source utterly drained!

In the devastating meantime, the pufferfish kept shouting. "Bind with me, Azelaq! Bind with me!"

And afterwards, the fifteen other gems that remained in this room, had been broken down into thousands of pieces! Their source of power had been drained greedily, as not even a string of light had steered loose in the salty waters!

After such a tremendous scene, the hero managed to open his eyes a little bit, and noticed that this same light was still circling around the enemy.

These countless branches of roaming light, were getting closer towards the pufferfish in an inch-by-inch behaviour.

Until finally, these branches had cooperated enough with each other to form a tremendously dependable mimicry of a pufferfish body!

Timothy got the displeasure of seeing a transparent, white-coloured form of a pufferfish, that was ten times bigger in comparison to the silver god!

In other words, there was a two-meter long, and round-shaped fish in front of him.

The cloud god himself was quite smaller in size. And he was hiding deep within this projection of a pufferfish!

Since this monster that surrounded his body was transparent, it was easy to see the actual pufferfish who was hiding between these walls of light.

However, the hero didn't have time to focus on such details. Because once more, he genuinely feared for his own life. This monster just seemed too powerful!

The enemy's vocal tone was different as well right now. Before it was thick and gravelly, but now it was strong and echo-like.

It was as if the pufferfish was screaming in a huge cavern, which allowed an echo to return; except here, this bastard's tone sounded stable and comforting.

It was quite disturbing to be seduced by a tone, who's owner craved murder but this was a situation that he had to handle right now.

However, the first thing that this monster had said, was. "Behold, the powers of Azelaq!"
