Chapter 51

"The mother Megalograptus is swimming back," Astaroth said as he stared at a massive, scary scorpion flapping through the water like a killer whale.
"In this case, I would be the shrimp," he said as he briefly analyzed his inferior body. "And if I don't want to end up on the bad side of an enraged killer whale scorpion, I think it'd be best to leave… immediately."
Doing just as he said he would, Astaroth used |Water Phase| enough times for his energy reserves to deplete by 75%. Only then did he stop to see that he was extremely far away from the Megalograptus den and its rage-filled mother.
In this new area, he also saw a bunch of similarly-sized sea snails slugging around on the loose, sandy sea bed. To Astaroth, they were relatively small, but if put in modern times, they could scale further than modern snails.
