The ink inside each Shadow Squid is worth quite a few magic stones, and Duke is reluctant to waste it.
This time he planned to try another method, manipulating the surrounding water elements to form an invisible hand.
This was Duke's first attempt at doing this. He had become increasingly adept at utilizing water elements and could develop more applications on his own.
This proficiency was thanks to his constant practice in the sea recently, where skill comes with practice.
The hand formed by Duke's manipulation of water elements worked even better than expected; the Shadow Squid was captured without any awareness.
To it, this hand was no different from the surrounding water, so it wasn't able to detect the danger.
Once caught, the Shadow Squid began to struggle violently, but the hand was like an iron clamp, firmly restraining it, unable to move.
Duke casually tossed it into the Space Ring, then continued to search for other Shadow Squids.
Two hours later.
