Chapter 155 - [Bonus ]Call Me Hall Master!
"…"
For a moment after Tosh's roaring, all the nanny sharks descended into a state of absolute silence as they looked at this little Coco with such strangeness like they've not seen her before now.
The other nanny sharks felt it from a distance, but the nanny shark who asked this question felt it personally, receiving the most impact.
This sentence from the baby shark instantly made her start doubting the reason for her existence. "Is this the little Coco that I know? Is this the little Coco that I trained? Is this the adorable little Coco?"
In the end, all these questions in her mind divulged together into one all-powerful question. "Who did this?"
Immediately after she asked this question, her mind narrowed down on a shark. One of the more powerful sharks but also the most talkative of the hunter sharks, Tosh!
Instantly after she concluded, her eyes narrowed down on the shark coldly.
A distance away, Tosh shuddered on feeling this gaze land on him. His deadly rows of teeth were still shinning in cheerful delight a moment ago, but they clamped shut on feeling this originally nanny shark's fearsome gaze.
He referred to her as originally nanny because to him currently, he was no longer facing a nanny shark, but a demon shark that just arose from the abyss.
The nanny shark's piercing gaze intensified, suddenly seeming to glow a bright orange while her body emitted imaginary smokes of anger. The next moment, her eyes seemed to experience a spike, turning red.
"Tosh! Pay for your crimes!"
Boom!
Shockingly, this nanny shark whose all her adaptations and skills were supposed to be focused on tending to the baby sharks erupted with a speed that shocked Tosh, even Sebastian who was watching from the side.
Her fearsome row of teeth was bare dangerously towards her opponent, then she got prepared to attack.
Seeing this, Tosh was dumbfounded. "Run! Run!"
As he yelled, on turning back he was stunned to see that his 2 companions already abandoned him without hesitation.
He was once again dumbfounded and lost for words. He yelled at them to wait but they were gone, then the nanny shark finally arrived with fierce motivation to vent her rage.
"Take this vile chatterbox!"
Crunch!
"Ouch!"
Crunch!
"Waaahhh!!!"
…
>Healing Department Chamber<
"We have extracted 50 shark points from your account".
"Congratulations for experiencing the feeling of using the healing rocks mins bandages made by the Queen. Thanks for patronizing our services, we wish to see you next time and engage in even more profitable business with you".
An enthusiastic marketer shark of the healing department was ecstatic after sealing another deal.
Though business in this department was not slow due to the large number of hunter sharks in the clan, one more still meant more business and was more than enough of a reason for this shark to celebrate.
While the shark celebrated, Tosh mourned. He felt a strong urge to thrash about and wail his heart out but he could not, he felt super sad. Even if he did wail, the seawater would just carry his tears away.
He felt depressed. His encounter with the nanny shark was in no way pleasant, now his body was covered with mins bandages.
Mins bandages were a form of bandages that were magically made by Queen Heareth herself and were in the form of rocks. By infusing her healing magic into rocks, these could serve as bandages to heal a certain degree of injuries.
Of course, his injuries would have been easily resolved by assimilating the magic essence of a predator but he was not like the baby sharks who got free food. To get good, he needed to hunt for it.
"Sigh, I hate being an adult shark".
"Stop whining and just follow". Sebastian could not help but interject on hearing Tosh say this term for the umpteenth time since coming from the healing department shark.
"I told you we'll all be getting tons of shark points soon. If you continue like this, I'll drop you from my team".
Hearing that, Tosh jolted. "Sorry team leader, I won't whine, I promise".
"Good!"
"Umm, but what's actually whining?"
"…"
For that, Sebastian didn't answer, he rather focused on what was on hand. After a lot of contemplating, and monologic planning, he finally concluded to go recruit other sharks into his hunting team.
He was not good at promotion, but once circumstances forced his hand, he was good at anything. Right now, he was ready to engage in aggressive promotion of his shark clan.
"Refuse to let me create my anatomy department? No worries, I'll force you to swallow back your words with plain achievement and genius".
…
Inside the Mission/Reward Hall was boisterous as usual as sharks went on with their activities, the majority checking available clan missions and taking any one of their choices while others engaged in other activities.
As this happened, a group of sharks suddenly swam inside the hall, going straight towards the keeper's position.
"Keeper Nanga…"
"No!" The old shark immediately flared up.
"Huh? Did I offend you?" The shark who was the leader of this hunting team was confused as it asked plainly after seeing the elder shark's reaction.
"No, you did not offend me. It's just that, don't call me keeper Nanga again, my title changed".
With that, the elder shark's hovering position changed, becoming a bit more dignified. "Call me hall master Nanga!"
"…"
This shark was stunned, but on turning and seeing the reactions from the other sharks, he understood. Nanga rarely felt motivated to do or enforce something, but when he felt it, he was unstoppable.
Apparently, he already persuaded all the other sharks to start calling him hall master. He could not help but think, perplexed. "Where did this strange new trend come from?"
Almost immediately as he asked this in his mind, he seemed to have invited the culprit as Sebastian swaggered into the hall with his gang of tea members.
Compared to the previous time where their swimming was much more restrained, slow, and normal, this time, they barged into the hall, attracting the attention of almost all the sharks immediately.
"Oh, Sebastian, you're back?" Nanga reacted immediately.
"Yes, I'm back". Sebastian replied while waving his dorsal fin to direct Tosh on where to drop what he dragged into the hall.
Tosh did as was instructed, immediately flipping over the large stone pavement to present the words that were written inside it to the sharks.
Voila!
"Welcome to the Ultimate dissectors hunting team, the hunting team of milk and honey! The next strongest hunting team of the clan, the hunting team that can literally perform miracles!"
"Come to the Ultimate Dissectors team as a white tier shark, you'll emerge at the orange tier. Come to the team as an orange tier shark, with time, you'll emerge as a purple tier shark".
"Come to the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team and you'll be among the first batch to experience the heavenly touch of perfection!"
"Experience the hands of anatomy and your life will never remain the same!"
