Reincarnated With Three Unique Skills

Just as the sun set on horizon, The Kraken emerged from the depths of the ocean like a nightmare given form, its sheer size dwarfing the horizon. And It's power level was 423.

Its massive, bulbous body shimmered with an eerie bioluminescent glow, pulsating with sickly blue and green hues. The slick, rubbery surface of its hide was adorned with countless scars and barnacles, a testament to its ancient, battle-hardened existence.

Its dozen colossal tentacles writhed and coiled like serpents, each one thick as a mountain and covered with rows of glistening, jagged suckers capable of ripping through the toughest armor. The ends of these limbs bore sharp, bone-like hooks, hinting at its adaptability as both predator and destroyer.

The Kraken's central head was nightmarish—a massive, gaping maw filled with spiraling rows of razor-sharp teeth that glistened like obsidian blades. Above its mouth, its enormous, glowing eyes radiated malice and intelligence, scanning Aengus with a primal fury.

Sprouting from its crown were bony spines, like underwater crowns of coral and bone. Each movement it made churned the ocean into a violent tempest, waves crashing and swirling in chaotic patterns as if the sea itself obeyed its will.

The Kraken's roar was deep, guttural, and reverberating that shook the heavens and earth alike, a sound of pure dominance over its domain.

"SPLASH!"

The ocean churned violently, responding to the Kraken's command as if alive, sending towering tidal waves laced with sharp, bladed edges toward Aengus.

"Whoosh!"

Aengus vanished instantly, using the Space Law to dodge the attack effortlessly.

Smirking slightly, he decided to escalate matters. His form shimmered and expanded rapidly, transforming into his Abyssal Dragon form, now towering over 10 kilometers in height. Scales of molten black and crimson gleamed menacingly under the darkened sky, glowing faintly like volcanic embers.

"ROAR!"

"RUMBLE!"

A deafening roar erupted from Aengus, shaking the heavens and the sea alike, forcing even the Kraken to recoil momentarily. His abyssal presence dominated the area, sending shockwaves through the ocean and dispersing the storm clouds above. His cold, ruthless dragon eyes locked onto the Kraken like a predator fixating on its prey.

The Kraken's massive, glowing eyes widened in recognition of the sheer disparity in power. Though it was the uncontested ruler of the Black Ocean, the Abyssal Dragon before it was an apex predator, its power eclipsing anything the Kraken had ever faced.

For the second time in centuries, the Kraken felt apprehension. Still, it summoned its resolve.

First time was with that person who's name cannot be spoken.

"Human, why are you attacking me? What have I ever done to you? I do not even leave the ocean," the Kraken spoke, its voice deep and surprisingly calm, though there was an undercurrent of tension.

Aengus let out a deep, rumbling laugh, his voice dripping with disdain.

"Of course, it's for your immortal power," he replied. "You've hunted countless beings for ages. It's only fair that you face the same fate. Your time has come, Kraken."

The Kraken's demeanor shifted entirely. Realizing negotiation was futile, its luminous eyes dimmed with grim resolve.

"Then come, human. Let us see if your strength is enough to end me."

The Kraken's tentacles unfurled fully, their sharp hooks gleaming ominously, and the ocean around them surged violently in preparation for an all-out battle. The clash of two titans was about to commence.

"CRRRRRREEAAAACCCKKK!"

The sound of the Kraken's agonized cry resonated through the heavens and the ocean's depths, signaling its imminent demise.

The battle's ferocious aftermath left the Black Ocean in chaos. The ground beneath the water cracked and shifted violently, causing colossal geysers of water to erupt skyward. One section of the ocean momentarily drained dry, exposing a barren seabed, only for it to swell monstrously and form tidal waves that towered like mountains.

These violent surges created devastating tsunamis that reached coastal areas, triggering earthquakes powerful enough to be felt across distant shores. Nearby fishermen caught in the unexpected chaos had no chance to escape, their vessels capsizing amidst the relentless waves.

But in this desolation, no human settlements were in immediate danger, as the ocean's infamous reputation kept civilizations far from its edges.

Moments later, as silence began to settle, Aengus's deep, devouring roar of triumph shattered the stillness.

Aengus stood over the roiling waves in his Abyssal Dragon form, his powerful frame gleaming with newfound energy. As he reverted to his humanoid state, the Black Ocean calmed under his mere presence, as if bowing to its new master.

Aengus noticed several curious low-level sea creatures peeking their heads out of the salty waters. Their large, curious eyes seemed to marvel at the figure who had slain the Kraken, their former ruler.

Aengus gave them a fleeting glance but dismissed them just as quickly. Aimlessly slaughtering innocents, even sea creatures, held no interest for him. Whether they thrived in newfound freedom or faced fierce competition for dominance, it mattered little to him.

"Boom!"

With a powerful sonic boom, Aengus shot into the sky, leaving behind a wake of disrupted water and startled creatures. His destination was clear, and he would not stop until he reached the other side of the Black Ocean where the Hero Empire ruled.

An hour later, beneath the shroud of night, Aengus landed gracefully on solid ground. The air was crisp, and the land before him bore the faint signs of civilization.

He scanned his surroundings, narrowing his eyes as faint traces of human settlement flickered on the horizon. But he had no time for distractions.

"MANAS, show me the shortest route to the Holy Cathedral directly

," Aengus commanded calmly.

"Yes, Master."

The voice of MANAS, his intelligent assistant, resonated in his mind. She began scouring her archives and analyzing the terrain in real time.
