866 My Fifth Familiar

“That’s your first familiar, the Black Slime, Victoria. Am I right? She’s a good partner for you. She can transform at will. I, Crabbe, greet my senior,” Crabbe said.

What was that? It’s like some sort of senior junior relationship. Is he really thinking that he will become my familiar?

Well, I guess that’s the case. I’m sure that if it’s Graham and Shelia, they knew that I’m already thinking of making Crabbe into my familiar.

I already have two familiars in the village. One from the werewolf race, and another from angel race. Then Lina has a familiar from the elf race. After that, the master level summoner has familiar from the centaur race. Other than that, there are weretigers and the recently joined dragons. There’s also vampires on Earth. They’re all amazing monsters.

But the monsters in the village are either from the race of a monster I made a contract with, or monsters who somehow get closer to me.

As for the Crab People, we just met and I already brought them to the village. So the smart monsters must have thought that I will surely make a contract with Crabbe. Especially since they knew that I’m looking for a sea monster.

“Let’s continue. I will show you that I won’t lose in underwater fight,” Crabbe said.

“Blub-blub, blub blub blub.”

Right, I forgot that I can’t speak underwater. What am I replying for then?

.....

What I tried to say was that there’s no way that I will lose. Though no one can tell. Because we’re underwater.

Whatever. Let’s just fight.

Crabbe swum toward me extremely quick. He used his hands to push himself forward with water magic and will attack with his claws. I guess he can use water magic again now.

I think the way he used it now is much better then using water magic to shoot at the enemy. At least underwater. Though maybe they can use it to levitate in the air if the water magic has enough force. I’ll ask them later.

If they can, then just like Spot, they can fight mid-air as well. That would be way too amazing. And I want him to be my familiar more and more.

With his left claw, Crabbe tried to hit me. Is that considered a punch?

Since I’m underwater, I kept using Aura to cover my entire body. If I only use Aura to cover one part of the body, the water pressure at the bottom of the ocean will hit me. And if I keep covering my body with Aura and protecting myself from his attack, there would still be damage taken.

So I had to protect myself with a weapon. And I used Victospear to block his claw.

Then he threw another attack with his right claw. Since that arm is really long, he could even use it to attack me from behind while his left claw is still blocked. But I dodged it. Then I blocked his right claw with Victospear as well.

Then, he pinched Victospear with both claws and pulled me who was still grabbing the middle part of the spear toward him. Then he prepared to throw a punch. A really strong punch with wide swing and water magic to push the punch even faster and stronger.

Then, let’s see. Who has the strongest punch underwater?

Crabbe’s fist covered with shell, or my fist slightly covered with Aura?

I let go of Victospear and punched him with my right hand. While he used his right fist as well to hit me.

Our fist met at the middle. I got my hand blown back because of Crabbe’s strength. But he got not only the shell on his fist destroyed, his fist was also broken. It’s impossible to use it now unless he has the healing skill at similar level of Kayla.

He’s still stronger than me. But my attack, since I’m smaller as well, is more focused in one spot. Though if he trained his punches more, he could hit me harder.

He retreated back and then used both of his claws to chop off his own broken fist. Is he crazy? I want him in his prefect condition!

And soon after, a new fist appeared. Just like that, he could easily regenerate missing limb.

“If I use magic, I can regenerate even missing limbs. Including the shell. Though if I don’t use magic, they will still regenerate. But it will take time,” Crabbe said.

I almost replied with another blub-blub. But still, that was great. Though for him to chop off his own hand like that is crazy. Why not just use the regeneration ability to heal his own fist?

Maybe because he thought that it will take too long with the same amount of mana used to heal his own fist. That’s why he just chop it off.

Then, if I want to finish the fight, I have to make it so that he will start thinking that he has no chance of winning. So I became more serious and looked at him with killing intent.

When he was shocked to see that I wanted to kill him, I’m already close to him and thrust Victospear to his stomach. This time, it was stronger than when I thrust his chest. And Victospear pierced his armor and wounded his stomach.

With fearful expression, he grabbed Victospear and pulled it out of his stomach. But my attack didn’t end like that.

I kept thrusting Victospear again and again. But he also started to get used with my killing intent, so he started fighting back.

Then he grabbed Victospear again and threw her away. So it became a fistfight underwater.

I only focused on attack, so his punches hit me. And those giant claws and fists that are bigger than my head hit my face. But I ignored them as I focused more on hitting him.

The result is obvious. I won. Crabbe no longer had the will to continue to fight.

The fight is over with a right straight to his face. And even though he didn’t lose his consciousness, he knew that he had no chance in winning.

“I... give up. I can’t win against you. You really are the strongest,” Crabbe said while waving his hand in surrender.

Alright, Roy. Don’t reply. You’re doing good at not humiliating yourself the second time.

Since the battle is over, I pointed to the surface telling him that we should get out of here. And I see that Victoria turned into a fish as she swam toward me then attached herself into me like usual.

Why doesn’t she stay as a fish and swim upward?

Now that the battle is over, Spot and the others who are watching approached us. Then Spot let himself be our ride to the surface. I guess Crabbe was too tired to move after the fight.

We move around a lot. I thought that we were quite far when we dived to the bottom. But now that we resurfaced, we’re back to the shore again. And I can see some monsters were waiting for us there.

“Did you win?” Shelia asked me.

“Easily,” I replied confidently.

“I bet it was just because he doesn’t have much experience fighting underwater,” Shelia said.

She’s right. There are many ways that I could lose during the fight. But I still win in the end. That’s all that matter. And I haven’t fully gone all out as well. So even if he got stronger, I would still win.

“Alright. Crabbe, you know what I’m going to do with you?” I asked.

“Yes. You will make me as your familiar. I will accept it and do anything you ask me. I don’t know much about your Earth. But I will just do what you said. Not just me. But all my people will follow you as well,” Crabbe said.

“Good. Accept this.”

I used summoning magic to make a contract with Crabbe. And it’s done. He’s now my fifth familiar. And hopefully, the last one.

“Well, I guess that’s it. I will introduce you all to my friends tomorrow. Is there anything else you want?” I asked Crabbe.

“Well, I like to stay in the village with the other monsters. We’ll be staying in the lake. Is it possible to make it bigger?” Crabbe asked.

“That’s fine. Tomorrow when I bring everyone, they will use magic to make the lake bigger. There’s no one from the village refusing it, right? Then it’s fine,” I said.

Staying in the village is good. Because I don’t have to look far for them. I don’t have to go to the sea if I need anything from them.

Maybe I should make an underwater tunnel connecting the lake to the sea. That way, they can leave whenever they want to hunt fishes.

“Ah, Tia. If it’s sea water, can they be purified by the plant?” I asked the Elf Queen.

“Yes. It’s possible. Do you want us to grow those plants in the sea?” Tia asked.

“No. I’m planning to connect the lake to the sea for the Crab People. To make it easier for them to come and go. Maybe a huge tunnel the size that Spot’s original size can enter. There might be enemies coming from the sea, but now that we have the Crab People, it will be fine,” I said.

I’ll ask the others about the reconstruction of the lake. And they happily accepted it.

For now, it’s time to return.
