Kaan continues his fruitless barrage of ramming attacks on the Aqua Pistol Lobster. Charging in with his massive body, half the size of the Aqua Pistol Lobster, using his own bare body to tackle against his target.

《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Weak Pain Tolerance Lv1」acquired.》

On the surface, the Aqua Pistol Lobster may seem a bit unscathed, by this fruitless struggle. However, the constant ramming attacks caused by Kaan indeed did some major internal damage to the Aqua Pistol Lobster, by repeatedly shaking, banging its internal organs against its endoskeleton. Slowly, accumulating damage over time, little by little, when compared to the heavyweight strikes it hammers down on Ron.

Kaan watches gravely as his little brother Ron is battered into the ground by the large Aqua Pistol Lobster. As shards of Ron's tortoiseshell begins to cave in, cracks are beginning to form, some piercing the inside organs of Ron itself. While he desperately screams in agony and great pain.

Dein did nothing, but watched in horror, frozen stiff in place. Observing the few remaining moments of what little life that has left in Ron, before he finally gives in to his death.

Kaan is unable to accept the imminent outcome of this hopeless struggle. In a desperate chance to change the outcome of the one-sided battle. He opens up his status screen, without a single ounce of hesitation in his eyes, he then spends up all of his additional unallocated stats points, putting them all into his strength stats.

He then felt a sudden boost in his strength, as he charges for another ram attack. This time it is much stronger than the previous past attacks. Aiming for the stomach region of the large Aqua Pistol Lobster, upon impact a loud cracking noise occurred.

It finally gave in after so many of Kaan's ramming attempt. The small dent in its endoskeleton would expand over time, after each attempt of ramming by Kaan's strike. Magnifying the crack even further until the point it couldn't handle the pressure anymore.

Breaking through the dense endoskeleton of the Aqua Pistol Lobster, forming craters and crack around the impact region. Sending the now dazed Aqua Pistol Lobster toppling over to the side.

Kaan then hurriedly rushed over to the sight of the fatally injured Ron. His tortoiseshell is now completely crushed into smithereens, as shards of his shell were cracked, piercing deeply into the flesh of the little tortoise. Fresh red blood is flowing everywhere as the eyes could see, spilling out onto the ground, dying the sand bloody red in color.

"Ron, Ron... Please speak to me? Don't die on me, Ron?"

Kaan then falls into a deep state of despair, feeling quite responsible for this incident. It was his decision to go on the hunting spree. It was his bad leadership that lead to this outcome. He wasn't patient enough to wait and observed his enemy.

Instead, they all rushed in, expecting the enemy to give up without a fight. How naive of them. And now this is the result of their narrowmindedness, ignorant of how the world works. The world doesn't revolve around them. They are just minor indispensable characters when compared to others who are much stronger than them.

Kaan now looks at the dying figure of Ron, all bloodied up to the bone, filled with many severe injuries, and fatal wounds. In a state that is near to death. Escapable death.

His organ is still beating weakly to survive, despite being exposed outside of its body. Ron weakly opens up his now dying eyes, looking square face in the direction of his older brother Kaan. He always admired him for being strong and courageous, similar to Shao. Able to do anything on their own. Become independent away from the group.

However, he was dragged along with the bad flow of his other brothers, Kai and Dein. Similar to him, they also share the same beliefs. But that sense of admiration soon turns into an inferiority complex.

Comparing themselves every day to the growth of Shao and Kaan. Watching them as they slowly make leap and bounds, becoming stronger by the second, as the three trios are stuck stagnated in growth. Afraid of being killed and death, unwilling to head outside of the far reach of the nest by themselves. Similar to what Reya once was, until she joined up with Shao.

Their inferiority complex would intensify by the day until they need an outlet to vent all of their frustrations on. And that outlet is precisely Reya because she is too small fragile and tiny to resist or put up any sought of resistance to their numerous violent assaults.

Ron then looks up at Kaan's figure, who is near to the point of breaking into tears, coldly observing him up and down. His vision is now slowly becoming blurry. As his breathing becomes heavier, causing him difficulty to breathe.

He uttered out a slight voice, noticeable by Kaan who was quite near him.

"Kill me, brother. End my suffering. End this pain I'm feeling. It hurts, brother."

Kaan watches his dying brother in dead silence. Tears dripping down his eyes and cheeks, unable to do anything for his lil' brother. Despite him being the oldest and strongest out of the group.

He was quite hesitant and unwilling to kill Ron at first. But after watching him incurred the continuous battering hammers of the Aqua Pistol Lobster. How could he not be in dreadful pain after his body is mutilated into that state? The anger rising in him, born from the depth of his despair, unable to do anything when he needed to.

《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Anger Lv2」 has become 「Anger Lv3」.》

Every loss and pain caused within this world is derived from one's own lack of competence, unable to do anything or change things with their own hands.
