Ocean Master

2 hours after the creation procedure started, Sebastian woke up.

On waking up, he felt biting pain all over his body. His eyes were bloodshot and his body shook repeatedly at intervals like a patient who just lost every single drop of blood in his/her body which was extremely fatal.

Sebastian didn't lose blood, but he lost something even more important, he lost mana. Not only that, he received some form of backlash that left him weak.

This was when his system lit up a new notification.

[Your quest in creating a new living doppelganger failed!]

[Reason: Space Beast Internal Structure flawed!]

On seeing this, Sebastian felt his mood plunging from the clown 9 where it was originally after he entered the hospital to the depths of the abyss.

This was not the first time that he was suffering a failure with so much significance. When he was pushed to the wall by Tonado and the other predators who were after the essence of the longevity fish that he assimilated, he decided to try breaking through and he faced a similar situation.

Failing to complete his evolution dealt a similar blow to him like right now. And despite already experiencing it once, it still felt unimaginably painful.

After getting all hyped up for the thought of creating another living doppelganger, after draining himself dry of his mana points just to enable it, getting to know that it was all for naught, in the end, gutted him.

And yes, his 2nd choice for a living doppelganger was a space beast.

After witnessing the power and might of these wonders of nature that were blessed by the origin essence, Sebastian was mesmerized.

Though he was not as fanatical about it as other Oceania native beasts, once he knew of the legend of pinnacle bloodlines, he had always craved them most especially after his encounter with the young space beast.

Though the young space beast was defeated by the Atlantians in the end, the power revealed by it was more than enough to earn his awe and respect.

His first choice for a living doppelganger was an Atlantian not only because he was familiar with their body structure, but also because these variant humans made up the royalty of Oceania due to their overlord status.

He had a lot of benefits to turning himself into one of them, so why should he give them all up and instead take a rough body of another species?

As for his second choice for a living doppelganger, the reason was self-explanatory, it was solely because of their pinnacle bloodlines and the terrifying amount of potential that every space beast had.

One of his greatest dreams since knowing of Space Beasts and after getting his new unique skill was if he succeeded in creating a real space beast body, would he also access the numerous benefits encompassed in their bloodlines?

Benefits like not having to train for skills, but simply extracting them from the recorded memories of his bloodline seemed too OP to be true.

All these were part of the reasons why he decided on creating a Space Beast. 

The only problem was, if he succeeded in doing it, what would be his explanation for the new body that suddenly appeared in the hospital, but thankfully, his new unique skill took care of this.

After getting his new unique skill, he got another ability that he didn't fully comprehend initially. This ability enabled each one of his bodies to have a place in their consciousness where they could hold the other bodies.

This effectively meant that he could turn into a one-man-army, going around, fighting enemies with the numbers advantage which was a terrifying one.

He deliberately didn't put his Atlantian body in his head. After a lot of thinking, he deduced that his first living doppelganger was better off alone.

Now, although Sebastian felt disappointed that he failed in creating his second doppelganger, the reason for the failure by his system was clear and it was one of the only consolations that he had from this attempt.

When he started the creation, he already faintly suspected a scenario like this, but he still went ahead with it to experiment and confirm his hypothesis.

He succeeded in creating his first living doppelganger so impeccably because of his incredible familiarity with the anatomy of a living human being.

As an anatomist in his previous life, before he deviated into dissecting sharks, Sebastian was so familiar with the human anatomy that it was second nature to him. This provided the best conditions for a successful doppelganger creation.

Combining this with the deductions that he already made about increasing the origin law comprehension of his unique skills was one of the more dominant reasons why he decided to work in a hospital.

He guessed that trying to act exactly like the doppelganger species he created was not the only way to increase his origin law comprehension, perhaps learning more about the doppelgangers could also do the job.

After seeing the reason for failure given by his system, he was pretty sure that his low origin law comprehension was what caused his 2nd living doppelganger creation to fail so woefully.

To remedy this, he decided that going to a hospital, looking up archives on real Space Beasts if there was one, and learning as much as possible about them was his best shot at fulfilling his dream for his 2nd living doppelganger.

Sebastian felt excited all of a sudden. This creation process was a failure, but the discoveries that he got due to it completely offset the damage done.

With these discoveries, his future direction from here was clear as he made his plans more focused. Coming to a hospital was the best way forward for him.

While working hard and trying to create his dream second doppelganger, he would earn clown credits while trying to get clues about his 2 other priorities, while also focusing on how to infiltrate inside the zone of glory.

Once he heard about the importance of this zone to his plans from the music master, Sebastian was determined to go inside it.

For some reason, his intuition told him that going in would clarify a lot of things that he didn't understand previously about the mysteries of this world, and he would probably meet a fellow earthling too which was the greatest hype factor.

[You have triggered passive skill: Instinctive Swimming.]

Once he finalized his plans in the private room that he ordered in the hospital, Sebastian finally swam out to face the full hospital.

On entry, he received a basic water-resistant pamphlet that gave a basic outline of the hospital. Through this pamphlet, Sebastian's eyes narrowed down on the area of the Aurora Hospital that he intended to visit.

{Anatomy Department.}

Sebastian's eyes sparkled on seeing these 2 golden words.

Unlike the other departments of this elaborate mutated beast hospital, the anatomy department was one of the least-crowded departments.

They literally never had patients; their only job was dissection and few people wanted to go close to such cutting freaks.

This was why once the sound of the door alarm reverberated in the anatomy room, every single anatomist ranging from clownfish to crabs, to beasts of other species to even variant humans all turned to look at the door in puzzlement.

On seeing that it was a shark, they were even more puzzled.

"Can we help you?"

"Oh, yes you do".
