Contrary to what you may think my favorite animals (or technically insects) are actually beetles. Also I'm not a marine biologist. There will be inconsistencies with my story so please understand.

    Sorry, not yet completely dropped, but I've been super busy for the past few months. Don't expect any updates but at the same time I may start writing for it again.

    Thanks! I’m no artist but I didn’t want to use someone else’s work without their permission, so I spent like an hour messing around with an ai art generator to make the cover. I also ended up making a cover for another book I’ve been thinking about writing that yall may see soon ;).

    I think you may have been looking at his Mana before he evolved.

    That's true but octopus can still use them for short bursts, so as not to cause that. I would imagine it would feel really uncomfortable for this to happen anyway though, hence Oliver's tiredness.

    I can manage to crawl, but propelling myself through the water using my siphons is super tiring as I'm pretty sure one of my hearts literally stops beating during it.

    What I was picturing for this mutation was more akin to the barbs of colossal squids. Also, kind of just barbs on the tentacles in general, not only on the underside. :D

    Yeah lol. Definitely not the image in mind I had when writing.

    <[Parasitic Cone Octopus] (Very Rare): Deriving from the Mind Eater octopus, this creatures is a low ranking manipulator of the body, capable of taking control of a lower ranked creature and forcing it to due its bidding. Unlocking the [Parasitic Infection Organ] in exchange for most of its physical stats and size, this creature isn't very good at frontal confrontation, but is phenomenal at sneak attack. At further evolutions, this creature can become capable of controlling multiple targets to the extent that they don't even know they are being manipulated.

    I had to search that up and uhhhh... I don't like what that looks like.

    Funky way of saying the sky lol.

    Some think that whatever gods or beings out there in the depths of the sea or in the sea above want every creature to have a chance, but frankly our progenitor Karkinos never believed in that.

    More so changing his mass, nothing about his arm actually visually changes.

    Sure! Sorry about the paragraph length, I don't typically read it on my phone so I'll cut it down to make it more manageable. I'll also go back through my previous chapters and try to clean up my capitalization and grammar what not. Thanks for the power stones!
