Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 701 Monster

　　"Occy, move," the princess ordered the octopus.

　　"He's Occy too?" Ning asked.

　　"They are all Occy," She said without looking towards him. They watched the princess play with the beast for a while.

　　The princess also watched the octopus do various things but since it was only Rank 1, it didn't have any elemental powers at all.

　　After all, a beast only gained elemental powers once it reached Rank 3.

　　"Why is my hair red? I want green hair like a mother." The princess grumbled a little.

　　"What? Your teacher here had red hair too. What's wrong with that?" Ning asked.

　　"But you said red hair was bad, teacher," she said.

　　"Yes, I did. But I also said it won't matter to you now, didn't I? Just keep summoning and soon you will have your hair changed too. Look, ask Joann how long it took for her hair to turn orange? Ask your mother too."

　　"Really mother?" the princess turned around.

　　"Yes, it took me many, many years before I could get green hair," the queen said.

　　"Me too princess. I had to grow this old to have my orange hair. By the time you are as big as me, you will probably have blue hair," Joann said.

　　"Blue hair is better?" she asked.

　　"Didn't I teach you? Blue hair is better than Green," Ning said.

　　"Okay, then I will get blue hair," the princess finally stopped feeling down. Then, she went back to playing with her octopus.

　　The queen started asking simple questions to Ning about his background, which Ning evaded as much as he could.

　　There were things about this world he believed he still didn't know about and he didn't want to say something that made the queen more suspicious than she already was.

　　"So you are in the Circle and in the Arena?" the queen asked.

　　"Yes, I use my time outside of Arena to deal with the Circle's quests," Ning said.

　　"The Circle has Rank 7 summoners now?" the queen asked.

　　Ning wasn't surprised to hear that question. After all, he had already seen that the queen was a Rank 6 summoner too. Meaning she could easily tell what rank others were around her own rank.

　　"I'm still just a Rank 5 for them. They don't have ways to confirm my rank yet," Ning said.

　　"How do you summon so many beasts at once by the way? I'm curious," the queen asked.

　　"Oh, that's… that's just double summoning. I found a particularly great beast that has many different kinds of skills and allows me to lend them for a really cheap price," Ning said.

　　"It does?" the queen was surprised. "It must have really taken a liking towards you. But then, why is your hair still red? It should have changed long ago."

　　"I… I don't think it likes me. It's more like the beast is bored and just does what it wants," Ning hurriedly said. 'Dammit, I need to change my hair color soon or it will cause more problems.'

　　"But still it—"

　　"Your highness, look!" Joann interrupted her to point in a certain direction.

　　Both the queen and Ning turned their head to see a ship in the distance fighting against turbulent water. However, what was weird about the turbulent water was that it only appeared in a small area around the ship.

　　The lots and lots of moving and splashes made it seem like the ship was fighting against the ocean when in fact it was stationary.

　　"Sea beasts. They're in trouble," Ning said as his vision enhanced to see what exactly was happening down there.

　　What seemed like a fishing ship was surrounded by beasts all around. 

　　"I'll be back," Ning said and immediately flew off in the boat's direction.

　　He flew through the air at incredible speed and punched one of the big fishes that were hitting the ship.

　　He went into the water and caught another fish by the tails and threw it out into the air where it flew far away in an arch before falling down into the ocean again.

　　The other fishes and sea beasts started circling Ning. Ning looked at them and calmed himself before suddenly his body started buzzing loudly.

　　His body was now producing sound at a frequency that fishes hated. He didn't keep it up for long, but only a few seconds to make the fishes scurry away.

　　He wasn't in the mood to kill them so he only sent them away. However, they would likely come back when they realized the annoying sound was gone.

　　Ning jumped out of the water and directly onto the fishing boat.

　　"The fishes are gone, start moving," he shouted, but he couldn't find the men.

　　It turned out the men were huddled up in a room on the boat, waiting for the beasts to go away.

　　Ning barged in and looked at them. "The fishes are gone. Start moving," he ordered.

　　"Who—"

　　"Doesn't matter. Move the ship now or they will return," Ning said.

　　"We… we can't," one of the fishermen spoke back.

　　"Why not?" Ning asked.

　　"The-the Anchor. It's stuck on something," he said.

　　"Really?" Ning ran out and found the anchor chain and tried pulling it out. However, it was in fact firmly stuck on something.

　　"Alright, I'll go in and get your anchor unstuck. Get ready to pull it after I give it a yank," Ning said and got ready to jump.

　　"NO!" a few of the men shouted at once.

　　Ning stopped. "What?" he asked.

　　A few of the men then immediately got to their knees and started praying something.

　　"The-there might be the monster," one of the men said.

　　"Stop being superstitious," another man argued.

　　"No, I'm not. It's true, my grandfather saw it," the man then argued.

　　Ning watched the men argue and sighed. He didn't have to wait for their permission.

　　He jumped into the water and swam to the depths of the ocean to find the anchor stuck on a large rock that was firmly embedded in the ground.

　　He punched a piece of the rock off and the anchor came unstuck. He then yanked on it and immediately the fishermen started pulling on it.

　　Ning stood on the anchor and waited as he was pulled out of the water.
