My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—

The shriek turned out to be a command from the leader of the Kraken Army herself, and it dampened the rage of the other Kraken who was blindly attacking Grado. Their rampant and erratic attacks suddenly came to a halt which surprised Grado.

In response, Grado stopped his attacks as well. And he floated toward the leader of the Kraken Army while holding back his killing intent. He didn't want to agitate the leader of the Kraken Army since it had gone out of its way to cease its attacks.

The leader of the Kraken Army was the largest Kraken that Grado had ever seen. It was twice the size of a regular Kraken and estimated to be at Triple-S Rank. Grado even doubted if he'd be able to take it down by himself. But then again, he was already there at present. There was nothing he could do but press forward and hope for the best. At the very least, Grado was confident that he wouldn't die. After all, it would take more than the Kraken Army for him to get killed.

With a light gurgling sound, the leader of the Kraken Army stared at Grado with eyes that seemed to peer through the depths of his soul. Its eyes were mesmerizing, almost majestic as if belonging to royalty. Grado was drawn to its eyes, but that didn't cause him to put his guard down. Despite the utter harmlessness of the leader of the Kraken Army, Grado still didn't dare risk.

"So... you're a queen, huh. I knew it." Grado muttered to himself, kneeling down in front of the Kraken like a knight returning from a long journey. He then scratched his head before pointing towards the Kraken Army. "I'm sorry, I charged in and killed one of your kin," Grado added.

The leader of the Kraken Army shook her head as if telling Grado that he didn't have to blame himself. Of course, everyone knows that the ocean part of the Beast Dimension is home to many ferocious water-type beasts. And the famous group by the shoreline is none other than the Kraken Army. Grado's actions were understandable, and the leader of the Kraken Army was willing to overlook the death of her kin in order to appease Grado.

Before Grado could ask anything, the Queen raised one of her tentacles and beckoned for him to follow her. Of course, Grado didn't have that much of a choice but to willingly comply. While he had no idea where the Queen was going nor why she was telling him to go with her, he still proceeded to tail her as she made her way underwater.

Curious, Grado enveloped himself with compressed air before going down so he won't drown. Meanwhile, the Queen continued to dive deeper and deeper into the water, approaching an opening from afar that seemed to be a cave.

The Queen entered the cave with Grado in tow. As soon as they entered it, Grado immediately felt the sudden dip in temperature, causing him to shiver despite being covered with compressed air.

Together, the two of them ventured deeper until they reached a clearing where it led upwards. Apparently, the cave goes deeper and then up towards a cavity where there is no water.

The Queen surfaced, followed by Grado, who didn't even get wet, thanks to his superpower. Up until now, he still had no idea why the Queen was leading him somewhere. 'Is she going to execute me? Maybe? I have no idea. But then again, it wouldn't hurt if I were to follow her rather than go against her. If that were to happen, I'd be left with no choice but to annihilate the entire Kraken Army.' Grado shook his head. It was all needless killing. That's why if he could avoid it, he would.

He will do anything if the Queen agrees to be his tamed beast.

Once they reached the dead end of the cavity, the Queen turned around, beckoning for Grado to come closer. Grado hesitated at first, but after contemplating for a couple of seconds, he approached the Queen as he led him to the narrowest part of the cavity.

"Whoa... are those..." Grado almost exclaimed the words that came out of his mouth. In front of him were a couple of small Kraken, wandering about the cave while they tried to balance themselves. They were no bigger than Grado's hand. "Are these your young?" Grado asked the Queen even though he had no idea whether the Queen could understand human language or not.

To his surprise, though, the Queen nodded, letting out a soft gurgling sound. All her younglings then teetered towards her, gathering in front of her like little soldiers in an army. Grado could've sworn that they were saluting their mother.

Grado awkwardly stood there as the Queen let out a series of gurgles, while her young responded with the same gurgles but in a high-pitched tone.

They seemed to be having a debate since the young Krakens were also gurgling amongst each other. It's as if they were in a heated conversation. Grado found it cute, though, since they were gurgling at each other like babies.

In the end, one young Kraken stepped forward, and the Queen picked him up without a second thought. The other young Krakens fell silent as they watched their mother take their sibling away. No one complained, though, since the discussion had already come to an end.

Thinking that it was time for him to stand up and address the Queen, Grado adjusted his clothes before approaching the Queen again. Grado more or less could tell that the Queen was going to do something, but as to what it was, he could only wonder.

Before Grado could act, however, the Queen extended one of her tentacles. On its end stood the young Kraken he picked up. The young Kraken let out a gurgle as it stared at Grado.

"Aren't you a happy little one?" Grado smiled as he gently rubbed the soft cheeks of the young Kraken. It responded with a soft purr before jumping onto Grado's hand.

"What? You want to come with me?" Grado asked, surprised that the Queen was willing to give up one of her younglings just so he won't continue with the bloodbath. However, the Queen shook her head and extended her tentacles towards Grado's pocket.

She then grabbed two Grens from Grado's pocket. After doing so, she pressed one of the Grens against her youngling, and then she pressed the other Gren on herself.

Grado watched as the two Grens dropped to the ground. He was surprised that the Queen would willingly give up her throne and agree to be a tamed beast. She even brought one of her younglings with her.

"That's it? But how? Why? I didn't even get to do anything." Grado scratched his head in confusion as he looked at the two Grens and then at the group of young Krakens gathered on the far end of the cavity. "What do I do now?" Grado asked as he sat on one corner of the cavity.

A couple of seconds later, a group of Kraken entered the cave and took the young ones with them. They didn't do anything to Grado. They just nodded along before they left.

Unbeknownst to Grado, the Queen had willingly given up her throne and passed it to one of her older sons, the main commander of the Kraken Army. It's only a matter of time before the Queen passes the throne to her son, that's why no one complained when she finally did it.

Also, she decided to go with Grado because she wanted to have an adventure of her own. Ever since her husband, the King of the Kraken Army died during one of the raids by the White Mist Faction. She had been cooped up ruling over the Kraken Army. Quite frankly, she was getting tired of it. She wanted to go out and explore the world.

But after contemplating about it, she figured she'd be lonely by herself, so she decided to bring one of her younger sons with her. All of them were unwilling to go except for one. That was more than enough for her.

"Look here, Queen, I'm not going to be your tamer. My grandson will. I'm sure that you will like him. He's stronger than me and will be going on more adventures than I am. I'm already old. You don't have any complaints about that, right?" Grado asked a few minutes later once he returned to the surface.

The Queen nodded.

...

Half an hour later, when Grado finally returned home, he stood in front of Satoshi's bedroom. As soon as Satoshi opened the door, he was supposed to put two Grens in Satoshi's pockets, but he could only put one. That's why he decided to give the second Gren to Satoshi.

And until now, Satoshi had no idea that the Queen of the Kraken Army was in his pocket.
