Chapter 7 - Beast Crowns

A Fish bursts into a room that would look like the inside of a palace. He proceeds to say, "Your Majesty the Emperor, Your Majesty The Emperor we have some bad news."

A middle-aged man was sitting on a throne frowning. He has arms resembling the skin of a worm but they seemed to have much more muscle in them than the average worm.

"Why have you barged into my room? Speak why you have come."

The fish started to speak but it was very jumbled.

"O-One of your sons have died. "

"WHAT!" The Middle-aged man had stood up and yelled.

"Which one of them was it??" The middle-aged man was already walking up to the fish and grabbed on to him to get his rage out.

The Fish standing there were frightened. He had never seen their emperor become this mad before.

"Yes, it was one of the Worm Kings that you had passed your crown down too." The fish was already trembling while these words were coming out.

"That foolish child didn't heed to my command to try to stay hidden. If anyone knew that I had already passed another Crown down because of my declining health I don't know what they would do. Especially if I lost the crown also. Find the animal that dares to have the audacity to kill one of my children." The Emperor was already so mad his whole body was turning red from rage.

"Ye-Yes your Majesty the Emperor." The fish slowly walked out and had already started ordering people to look around the area where he was last sighted.

The Emperor had already started walking back to the throne muttering "If I say that person who dared to do that to someone I had chosen as an heir I will show no mercy."

.....

Meanwhile in another part of the Yugo Sea.

"Worm King Beast crown? What the heck is this thing? let's inspect this thing then." Kirk was very confused and followed his instincts to inspect.

*Beast Crown

Species

Type

A crown given to the heir of the throne by the Worm Emperor. When worn allows the user to use skill and +15 Health, and +15 Mana.*

"This seems like such an amazing tool but who is the Worm Emperor. Is it like their dad or something?"

*Every species has multiple crowns that can be used to help grow the next heir. When one is given one of these crowns it benefits them tremendously. One can only obtain a crown by being gifted one like the Worm King has or if you kill a creature with a Beast Crown there is a small chance that it would be dropped on death.*

Taki went on to say, *The reason why the drop rate would be so low is that when you get a crown you got to do a ritual type thing with it. You are supposed to place a drop of blood on it so It can recognize you as one of its race/species. After it recognizes you, you would be able to use the extra buffs of the crown.*

"Wow, I did not know such a thing existed. But since it needs to recognize me as its type, how come I can see its stats and what it gives."

*Anyone can do that if they have an Info mirror.*

"An info mirror?"

*Yes, not all creatures have the System and Inspect skills like you. Only a small amount of creatures and people have been inspected. While the System skill has so small amount of people that have used it they can be counted on one hand throughout all of history, including you. So to make up for the lack of those skills there is a Bronze tiered item called the Info Mirror. It allows you to see what you see when you say 'status'.*

"Does that mean that I won't be able to use it because I am not of the worm race?"

*Not exactly. Say 'Register Beast Crown' while dripping a piece of blood on it.*

"Aaaand how am I supposed to make myself bleed with no arms?"

*Just go find a weak enemy and let it damage you a little then drop blood on the crown.*

Kirk went on to find a level 2 crab too get hurt by. He got pinched a little and was able to follow Taki's direction.

"Register Beast crown." When Kirk had said this he had heard a bell sound.

*Worm King Beast Crown registered. To equip this say or think of the Worm King beast crown.*

"What! So I can use them, but how come this works Taki?" Kirk was surprised because he had just heard from Taki only the same creatures of the same species could use him.

*Why you can do this is because you have the System skill. The system skill has tons of other features that you will learn when you get stronger but for the reason why this does work with the skill even, I'm not sure myself even if I am the system. What I can guess is that the system can make you imitate the energy and blood of the creature.*

"Even Taki doesn't know why it's able to do this. This System skill seems to be able to do a lot more than meets the eye. I guess now that I can equip it so I should check my stats after I equip it."

*Bubble Black (Combative)

"Dang this skill is to OP, It can deal AOE damage. I should try this out." Kirk then continued to find a group of a couple of crabs scurrying on the floor. He then proceeded to line his shot up then fired. before the crabs even noticed it flying at them they had already been flying away from the ground.

There were cracks all over the shell that made it look fragile He then proceeded to shoot another bubble at them that had blown up half their shell. A couple of seconds later he had gotten 3 notifications.

*Killed Sand Crab earned 5 (x5) exp*

*Killed Sand Crab earned 5 (x5) exp*

*Killed Sand Crab earned 5 (x5) exp*

He was very excited to see that his shots landed. After a couple of seconds though his smile had turned into a deep frown because what he saw in front of him was like a big wave of worms and other organisms swimming towards him. After a quick look, he had noticed a slight feeling of killing intent from them and he instantly decided on what to do.

He suddenly turned around and bolted the opposite way of the fish yelling "Why would they go for me out of all the creatures here!"
