Kirk was completely confused about why these fish had come looking for his blood. He had already been swimming for 10 mins and they had been slowly reaching him. The whole time he had been throwing out 'Water Lasers' and 'Bubble Blacks' at the fish. After another minute of throwing attacks at the giant wave, he had gotten a notification.
*Skill:
He was excited that the skill had leveled up but it only lasted for a second. He had no time to be celebrating over the level up. He then remembered that he should try to level up other skills while trying to flee from the 20-50 creatures on his tail. He then started activating Inspect on everything. He decided that since there were so many monsters on his tail he decided to use them to level up his Inspect skill. After 5 minutes of nonstop inspecting, Kirk had started to have a headache.
He noticed that using inspect too much exhausted his mental power. So he decided to refrain from using that skill for a little and focus on escaping this predicament. While he was thinking of what to do he saw a big cave to the right of him and immediately dove into it hoping that he could get them off his tail.
Unfortunately, it did not work in his favor and it made it worse. He was now in a cramped cave with tones of different spells being launched at him. He did not know that they would shoot spells in a cave-like this.
Kirk turned around and yelled, "Are you guys trying to bury us alive?!"
One of the fish in the lead which he had learned was a Goober Fish which had the level of 5 spoke stating, "It does not matter to us. As long as one of us captures you alive then we don't care about our lives." Kirk then thought to himself "What kind of grudge do you have against me to not even care about your lives*
Kirk's mind was thinking hard on how he would be able to get out of this situation. He had just noticed that the cave was getting smaller. While looking at the ceiling getting closer to the floor he came across a brilliant plan.
"Since you guys want to die so much then be my guest." He then used Bubble Black twice making them fly towards the ceiling at high speeds. When the fish saw what he did they knew exactly what he was trying to do. They immediately tried to stop the black bubbles that had already almost arrived at the ceiling but nothing could penetrate them.
"BOOM." Two big explosions were heard through the cave. When Kirk had heard the explosions he was thrilled because he knew that his plan had worked. He turned around and saw 3 fish had successfully gotten past the wall of rocks. He checked their stats and knew why they had been ankle to dodge the rocks.

Those are some tough fish. Especially the Goober fish. It had saved the other two fish by covering them from the rocks and it only took 5 HP. Luckily some of the rocks were still able to hit the other two making their HP go down.
The three fish stared at Kirk intensely while Kirk stared back.
"Why do you guys seem so keen to kill me? I don't remember doing anything that would lead to over 50 fish wanting to kill me." Kirk was honestly confused. He had never even thought that all of this was because he had killed the Worm King.
"Are you saying you didn't kill the Emperor's son?" Although he still believed it was Kirk that had killed him because of what the witnesses said. He didn't believe that a little tadpole could kill a creature with a Beast Crown. When Kirk had talked it also made him believe that he didn't kill the Worm King because of his tone.
"Emperor's son? I don't remember killing an emperor's son. Who is the emperor and his son?" Kirk had no idea what they were talking about. He didn't even know who the emperor was not to mention his son.
"You don't even know who the emperor is. Have you never heard of the legendary Worm Emperor who had defeated 1,000's of fish in the ocean within minutes?" The tree fish were also now starting to get confused where this little tadpole had come from to not even know who the legendary Worm Emperor was.
The reason Kirk never heard of the Worm Emperor was that he left his pack of tadpoles and frog parents who were supposed to tell them to never mess with the Worm Emperor or anyone related to him.
"Nope never heard of them. I have never even heard of such an emperor and you're claiming that I had killed his son? Even if I had it would probably have been out of self-defense." Kirk was now just trying to get out of this situation altogether.
"Okay then, let me ask you another question. Have you killed a big worm with a crown on its head? Its name was King Worm." The fish slowly said these words trying to see what kind of expression the tadpole in front of them would show.
When Kirk heard the words his heart immediately soured because he knew he messed up. He thankfully was able to keep a straight face and stay calm.
"I have never seen or heard of a creature. May I know why you think I have killed the emperor's child." Kirk knew he had to get out of this as soon as possible because one wrong word may become his last. While talking though he had started thinking of a plan to get out.
"There were multiple witnesses of a tadpole duking it out with the Worm Emperor. We also have another way to find out if you have killed them." The fish's faces became sterner the more he talked as if he was waiting for Kirk to mess up.
"Aren't those just baseless claims. Why don't you try to use your other little trick to try to find out if I have killed the Worm King." Kirk had figured out a plan to kill the fish. He was gonna shoot Water lasers within the fish's mouth to try to get some extra damage in.
"Alright since you are so confident let us try it." The fish then swam up to Kirk and right when he was gonna say another thing he had seen bright flashes and then a burning sensation in his mouth. He then saw a bubble fly at him and he was barely able to dodge it.
Kirk was excited to see that this sneak attack worked then went straight to work on the little fishies in the back. He instantly dove down to bite the low fish. The fish also wasn't expecting a sneak attack and before he could move he had already been struck in the fins.
The Light Fish also saw what was happening and so he went to attack another fish that had already gotten in front of him. "Lemme get that brat myself."
It was the Goober Fish and he was charging right for Kirk. Kirk seeing this smiled then lunged backward. He had planned this out from the beginning.
He would make the goober fish mad which would make him attack Kirk alone. Then all he needed to do was separate them a little and throw a 'Bubble Black' at the ceiling and they would be separated.
The Goober fish seeing Kirk run away made him even madder. He went even faster but before he knew it he had been separated from the other two fish because he had been blinded by rage.
Kirk seeing that it was now just him and a badly hurt level 5 he smiled and said, "Let's finish this disagreement."
