Chapter 102 - Ugly Fucker, Level-Up Facelift
Chapter 102 - Ugly Fucker, Level-Up Facelift
I didn't bother going to the Demon Fish Village; I would see them when I returned from rescuing Missy. For now, I ran into the rolling waves until I was up to my waist, and then I took a deep breath and dove in.
The ocean water was cool and refreshing after running so hard, but I perceive hot and cold differently now. I felt them, but I was no longer affected by temperatures outside of the normal. ??
I released the Water Sphinx Totem and then activated the Water Undine Totem, and suddenly I felt a massive boost to all my senses. Even my Wind Pact felt stronger, and then I got an alert that popped up, and I swam forward.
[Totem Sync] Acquired!
{When 10 Meters from a Bonded Partner, the Totem Marks power increases.}
"How are you going to find these people? It's dark, and you can't see in the dark, right?" Hydie asked me, but I pointed to my ear.
I could already hear the vibrations from the Sahuagin; they never seemed to stop mourning their women. Well, at least they could lead me to when I need to go, and now that Hydie got her System, I had an idea.
I cut through the water like a shark, and I was at the Sahuagin village. It took no time at all, but the sound was almost worse underwater. I swam to a massive shell where the majority of the sound was pouring out an open entrance.
There were some very dim glowing fish that glowed soft silver like the moon. It must have been to help their eyes because I could see the horribly ugly face with my heightened senses.
I shifted to the Water Pact and Water Sphinx Totem, and my vision dimmed slightly, but I immediately focused on blocking my ears. At the same time, I was looking around the Chum Bucket for Plankton or whoever was in charge.
"What are you going to do now?" Hydie asked, and I wasn't sure, but the Sahuagin turned to me as I drifted forward.
"Make, clear," I barely whispered, using a small amount of air that I was still holding from before I dove in.
"You can use the air, and I will hold it for you to breathe back in to talk. As long as you don't hold it back in or the old air will make you dizzy, Magic or not," Hydie explained, and also when clear.
"OOO-KAZZ! HAVE YOU COME TO OOO-HELP US WITH THE BARRACUDA-OO-OO?!" One of the Sahuagin cried, and suddenly it was deathly quiet.
"Yes, but I need your help to get to them. I also have a plan to help you win the girls back, so they stay with you. It will also be helping my friend practice and train her abilities, but If one of you lays a finger on her, I will boil you all like lobsters," I told them, and that was when I spotted the biggest one of them start getting up.
My voice seemed to carry fine out of Hydies bubble because many smiles were growing on their ugly faces. The big one turned around to me after standing up, and it seemed the bigger they got, the uglier.
"The boys have told me about you and that you would come, and here you are. If you have a plan, then we are at your dispense, but we are not warriors that can fight the Barracuda. I am Shirzik, and I will lead you," the ugly fucker said, and I sucked in the stale air.
"Hydie, can you make these god-awful-looking creatures better looking?" I asked, and then Hydie moved a small air bubble into my mouth and released it before splitting from me.
"I think I can make them look better, but they will still be the same underneath," Hydie told me, and I nodded.
Hydie shrugged and then got started. The first two that she tried gave them average-looking faces, but then she leveled up right away, and the skill got a boost.
The following five got an average face with average bodies and then a level up, but she received a new skill this time.
[Designer's Vision](Passive): Designer's Touch now gives partial feeling when a creature focuses on a target that was targeted by Designer's Touch.
I wasn't really sure what it meant, but then one of the average-looking men shouted in surprise.
"I CAN FEEL YOUR NOSE! Wait… I can still push through it?!"
The other Sahuagin had no noses, just flat faces, so that would be helpful. The next fifteen turned out pretty good, and they were decent-looking.
There was another level, but there was only a change in her pattern ability. The change allowed her to manipulate what she was using to make the patterns.
Now the men were starting to look like Mermen without fish tales. The last thirty-two got to the final level, and there was only one left.
I scanned over the final level-up results; Hydie was now the highest level girl that I had. And there were some changes.
{Hydie}

Oh, that is too perfect! Now it was time to give the Ugly Fucker his facelift!
"Shirzik, ready for this?" I said with the bit of air that I had.
The Sahuagin leader grinned at me, and I couldn't help but cringe. It was hard to believe just how much worse that made him look with teeth sticking out all over the place.
