Chapter 198: Special Ability: The Playful Swimming Pool

Su Yang opened the system shop and saw the Point Coins at the upper left corner of the window increasing. He only had 31 Point Coins left in the afternoon after spending on the Random Points, and after a few hours, he had already accumulated 99 Point Coins.

Su Yang looked at Pool while waiting for the last Point Coins to fill up while Pool looked back at him with a confused gaze.

Five seconds later, the number of Point Coins increased to 100.

Su Yang bought a [Protection Charm] without a second thought, emptying his Point Coins with the purchase, and the number of [Protection Charms] decreased by one, so only 20 were left.

Su Yang held the charm in hand and said to Pool, “Okay, here we go.”

Pool nodded. He then jumped into the swimming pool and disappeared into the water. The seahorses, squid, and even Janet did not seem to notice the splash as they were still swimming around mindlessly.

After Pool merged with the water, Su Yang stuck the [Protection Charm] to the side of the swimming pool.

When the charm disappeared and fused with the water, the swimming pool glowed in an auspicious red.

It was not Su Yang’s first time, and he was quite familiar with the process, to be honest. Without being surprised, he opened the system and everything in the swimming pool had a translucent [+] sign above them, including Janet, the seahorse family, and the squid.

Janet’s [+] sign was as big as a basketball, and it was moving along as she swam.

Su Yang looked at the swimming pool and tapped on the translucent [+] sign at the corner. The water in the swimming pool shone brightly, and every aquatic creature in the water, including the water itself, stopped as if time was frozen.

A dazzling shine blanketed the surface of the water.

The swimming pool got brighter and brighter, becoming blinding in fact. Su Yang had to look away and covered his eyes with his hand.

After more than 10 seconds, when Su Yang felt the blinding light had faded, he slowly opened his eyes.

The swimming pool became bigger and deeper but…the aquatic creatures were all gone.

‘Sh*t! Where are Janet and the seahorse family? Will Little Hus kill me?’

At the thought of that, a young man who was 175 cm tall appeared above the water in a flash. He appeared in traditional Chinese attire with a jade-buckled belt around his waist. He resembled a gentleman of the olden days, except for his thin long eyes, which did not suit his proud and prestigious bearing.

He put his hands together and bowed at Su Yang. “Lord Su Yang.”

Surprised, Su Yang said, “Pool?”

Pool nodded. “Yes.”

Su Yang’s jaw fell on the floor. “Did you…grow up?”

Pool scratched his head and all of a sudden, his body reverted back to his teenage appearance. He said gently, “I think I’ve gotten a second form.

‘A second form? Like Sanque?’

Su Yang was confused by this ‘second form’. It was then that a description window popped up from Pool.

[Swimming Pool +2: Life Evolution happened again. Special ability acquired.]

‘Huh? Life Evolution again? And Pool got a new special ability?’

Su Yang suddenly felt extremely jealous. He was as jealous as a cat.

Gru had gotten two points but not even a special ability, so it could not even talk. Little Hus got two points and all it did to him was increase its size.

However, not only did Pool get Life Evolution on his first point, but he even got a special ability, and with his second point, Life Evolution happened again and he got yet another special ability.

It was like someone who had bought lottery tickets for many years but could not even win a consolation prize whereas Pool won the jackpot the first time, and bought a ticket for a second time because he could not believe his luck and still won the second jackpot.

‘Bullsh*t! This is total crap! Pool is the protagonist of this novel!’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang tapped on the special ability.

[Special ability: The Playful Swimming Pool]

[Ability: The swimming pool can be divided into 11 parts to keep all kinds of aquatic creatures on this earth. The environment in the separate spaces will change to match the creatures living inside.]

[Remark: Mommy no longer has to worry about me living with a shark—baby seahorse.]

‘This ability doesn’t make sense…Why would I keep aquatic creatures in the swimming pool?’

Su Yang looked at Pool. “Where are Janet and the others?”

Pool swung his hand at the wall and 10 doors appeared on it. The first six doors had different icons on them, which were a shark, a seahorse, a sand-burrowing crab, a squid, a coral, and a turtle respectively.

‘One door for every creature.’

Su Yang opened the first one and saw a room exactly like the swimming pool. Even the decorations were the same. He turned around to face the original swimming pool and found himself standing in the center of a symmetrical space. It felt strange.

He walked in and realized that even though everything looked the same, the swimming pool was different.

In room No. 1, the swimming pool had turned into a bottomless sea with no borders in sight as if the entire room was built on the sea. Janet was swimming freely like the apex predator of the sea.

Su Yang walked out of the first room and went into the second.

The second room looked exactly the same, but instead of a bottomless sea, the swimming pool became a beach with shallow waters where the sand-burrowing crabs were crawling around freely.

‘The swimming pools really change for the different creatures.’

Su Yang did not check on the other swimming pools. He returned to the original swimming pool and saw at Pool in his teenage form. He asked, “How long can you maintain your adult form?”

A quick thought later, Pool said, “A full day should be okay.”

Su Yang nodded. “Then, I think you can go to work in that form. At least, you won’t make it look like child labor.”

Pool gently said, “Very well, Lord Su Yang.”

Su Yang was in deep thoughts as he sized Pool up.

‘If Pool can transform, he can at least look like an adult. All that’s left is to wait for Deeny to learn all the machine operations and test everyone’s blood. If they are similar to human’s vitals, they can pass the health check and Pool can register himself as a real citizen of the country.’

It did not take Deeny long to finish learning. On the afternoon of the next day, she went to Su Yang and told him that all the machines transformed by the sticky notes were ready to be used.

The health checkup consisted of a blood test, a urine test, and a simple X-ray.

Deeny was in charge of everything, and after Pool and Sanque came back from work, every little monster went through the health checkup.

The test results surprised Su Yang though. Deeny and Pool were basically similar to humans except for one thing…
