The hidden cave

[Waking up host... Done]

As I woke up, I could feel my mind going blank for a second, and when it came back, for some reason it looked like something was missing... But this feeling was only for a moment.

I wanted to check my status before anything happened

Wow, a lot of my skills leveled up... And I have two new skills, *Tentacle Spear* and *Tentacle Beam*... Can I have their information?

[Updating information... Done]

Tentacle Spear: One of the evolved forms of Tentacle Thrust, it turned into a spear as the host's mind adapted to this form. It is stronger and sharpened, with increased perforation power. Ignores 50% of the enemy's armor.

Tentacle Beam (Weakened): A created skill. A Tentacle Spear enveloped by a condensed Aura, as it is too strong for the host's body to bear the recoil, it was weakened by the system, it will slowly unlock itself while the host gets stronger. It costs 200 mana and ignores 100% of the enemy's armor. Deals magical damage.

...

Okay, they sure are strong, but I still need to be careful, being overconfident can be my doom.

I was a little hungry, so I went out to eat some fishes. Once again, I went very far from the coral cave, killing and eating some red crabs and yellow fishes. A total of 12 red crabs and 2 yellow fishes.

[Current XP: 836/2700]

[Congratulations! A Skill has leveled up! Absorb LVL 7 -> 8]

I forgot that I had this skill, do I get something extra from it if I get to level 10? Hmm, I might discover this by the time...

I kept walking a little more until I saw a weird cave...

It was very long, I couldn't see the final of it from the entrance, but I was really curious about what was inside of it.

In the end, I went inside of it, finding some things carved in the stone until I reached a place with a stone plate imbued in the wall, It has a weird language on it, I couldn't understand it.

[Secret Language identified, wants to translate it?]

As always, I was super curious about it, so I said "Yes".

[Translating... Done]

(A weird creature, enveloped by a green cocoon. Letting out weird sounds, while pulsing with life. Each sound made a crack on the cocoon, and it was slowly coming out... As it revealed himself, it started to scream, each scream echoing in the head of nearby creatures. Weaker monsters fell in the ground, with dead-like eyes The moment that the creature left the egg, the world knew. That was, the new D-)

[You received 87 damage]

I passed out.

I woke up inside of something weird, it was red and sticky, with little holes in something that couldn't be called a wall. It was round and long, a weird place indeed.

But I could feel something familiar from it... it looked like that yellow fish's stomach!

Wait, I did receive damage at a time, weird voice, how much health do I have?

[Please, call me System from now on. You have 94/108 Hp]

Oh, okay "System". Where am I right now?

[You are inside the rare species stomach called "Sea Serpent"]

Sea... Serpent? That's why it is so large? Alright, I might as well do the same thing as I did with the yellow fish.

(Fighting POV)

Shihidora used *Tentacle Spear*, His tentacles started to merge and took the shape of a big and pointy thing that looked that would cut anything just by touching. As Shihidora pressed it against the Sea Serpent's stomach, everything started to shake around him. He was tossed around while the tiny holes became slightly bigger. A Green liquid started to pour out of the tiny holes while he was thrown here and there, getting in contact with it.

Oh god... I thought that I would die... I'm glad the system finished it before I died. Can I know my current health?

[HP: 34/108]

Phew... At least the acid doesn't damage me anymore, but I have to leave this place as fast as possible.

After learning how to effectively kill fishes, it looks like the "head" is the most important part, as they die easily if you can hit it.

But how can I find his head...?

[The Sea Serpent's head is located to the right]

Right? There is only long darkness ahead...

[Continue to walk straight this way]

Oh, okay.

After at least 10 minutes of walking and eating some pieces of meat, I finally reached something. I could see his teeth and some holes here and there.

[You reached your destination, Sea Serpent's head is right above you]

Oh, really? Alright... What's my current health?

[HP: 108/108]

Okay... I will need to use "that"

Once again, Shihidora's tentacles became brighter, a faint glow of red was manifestation itself, it enveloped a big spear. It was hurting a lot more than before, but he resisted it.

Shihidora: "Ugh... *Double-Tap!*

Amazing, if you could say something about what happened before this word, would be only Amazing. It exploded instantly, shooting a Beam forward, the Sea Serpent's head vanished from existence, becoming only ashes.

[HP: 33/108]

I was too tired and hurt to think about anything, I just returned to the cave, talked with Sheina, and as always, she scolded me for returning with so many injuries... Before sleeping I asked her if she could take the Sea Serpent body to the cave, she said something, but I ended passing out right before it.
