1667 Episode 1667



"Well, there's a good catch,"

 Ray smiles happily, keeping his thrown spear through a large fish's body and floating to the surface of the sea in a mistling.
 It wasn't the tuna Ray was aiming for, but as long as it was a big fish, it should have been filling.
 Rei is also a completely unfamiliar fish, so I had to ask the fisherman if he could eat it normally.

"It's actually as poisonous as a puffer fish... if that's the case," But I think it's okay somehow."

 It's not like there's any proof, it's really close to intuition.
 However, Ray had a prediction that for some reason it would be all right?

"Grull!"

 Seth cries out for fish as soon.
 While patting Seto on the neck, Ray patted her head, telling her to calm down.

"For the time being, let's concentrate on catching fish, not eating them. Instead, I'll feed you fish well tonight. I want a net, but it's hard."

 Speaking to Seto, Ray came up with the idea of a fishing boat pulling a net.
 One of Seto and Ray would certainly have been able to fish in the same way if they had a huge net.
 But the question is what to do with the net.
 If you go to fishing villages or port towns, there might be nets.
 On the contrary, however, there is a possibility that there is no net at all.
 Ray didn't know if he was fishing with nets.

(It seems that Emocion has been fishing with nets for the time being, and that kind of fishing has not been developed at all, but... the question is whether they are fishing like that in this neighborhood.)

 Ray expected that fishing with nets would naturally require ships of some size.
 And Ray thinks that there are no large fishing villages or port towns around here, and it's a delicate point to be told if you can use that many boats.
 ...but it's only natural that Ray chose this area as his fishing destination because it was a deserted place from the start.

"Grull!"

 Ray, who was thinking, heard Seto's cry.
 Watching Sett's direction, Ray realizes he's looking at a spot on the sea level.
 Watching Sett's eyes with that in mind, Ray finds what appears to be the shadow of a number of fish beneath the sea level.
 It was about 70 percent the size of the fish Ray had just caught, slightly larger than ... but unlike the fish he had just swam in a group.
 After seeing that, Ray wanted to get a net again, but now he thinks that catching fish is the first thing he wants, and instead of taking a spear out of the mistling, he starts Nebra's eyes on his waist.
 This was because he thought it would be quicker to use Nebra's eyes than to take out a spear every time and throw it.
 However, naturally, Nebra's eyes produced arrowheads, and their offensive power was not high.
 If they ask me if I can defeat the fish with one shot even if I attack with arrowheads... I'll be honest with you that I won't know until I try it.
 However, arrowheads produced by Nebra's eyes can be produced as long as Ray's magical powers continue.
 Nevra's eyes are overwhelmingly advantageous in terms of the speed of continuous shooting, although a single shot is no match for throwing spears.

"All I can do is give it a try. --this would be better for the natural environment!"

 As he shouts, Ray throws an arrowhead created with Nevra's eyes over the back of Sett, who was approaching a herd of fish.
 He usually uses arrowheads created by Nevra's eyes by throwing them with his fingers, but this time, he throws them with a snap of his wrist in order to increase his strength.
 The arrowhead then flies as if cutting through the air, penetrates the seawater, and hits the body of the fish beneath it.
 Unlike spears, arrowheads could not be imitated to penetrate a fish's body because they were less powerful as they penetrated seawater.
 However, even if it does not penetrate the body of a fish, its power is sufficient in terms of killing the fish.
 ... No, if you throw a discarded spear, it is possible that if you pierce the fish with a spear with a missing ear tip, the fragments of the ear tip may remain in the fish's body.
 If you think so, you won't have to worry about the pieces of the blade because the arrowheads that were created by magic will disappear.
 In that sense, it was even safer than throwing a spear.
 a fish whose body has been pierced by several arrowheads
 However, Ray, before recovering the fish that surfaced, produced arrowheads one after another and threw them away because they were just a group of fish.
 Fish herd basically have a survival strategy of fleeing by themselves at the expense of their peers when attacked.
 In fact, if carnivorous fish or monsters attack a herd, the herd itself will escape if only the unlucky fish are killed by the attack a few times.
 But... I can only say this time that the other party was at fault.
 The survival instincts etched in fish instincts were utterly useless.
 The main cause of this would be that Ray and Sett, who are still attacking the herd, left the fish alone and killed them one after another instead of eating it on the spot.
 Of course, floating fish will sink over time, so we cannot keep attacking them forever, but Ray said he attacked them one after another because he didn't seem to sink right away.
 Moreover, Ray is not the only one who attacks, using arrowheads produced by Nebra's eyes.
 Seto, on which Ray was riding, was also hammering ice arrows into the sea, using ice arrows in succession.
 A series of attacks on herds inevitably reduce the number of herds at an accelerated rate.
 When the number of fish floating in the sea is close to a hundred, the action of trampling Ray and Sett ends.

"Well, if we reduce the number of fish here too much, there's a possibility that the sea around here will be adversely affected... wouldn't there be such an impact on one of the schools of fish? Anyway, set. I suppose we're going to recover the fish."
"Grull!"

 At Ray's words, Seto sings happily.
 That's why they think that when they collect fish, a few nibbles will be forgiven.
 Ray understood Seto's aim, but since Seto did a great job this time, he didn't mean to say anything if it was just a few nibbles.
 Descending near the surface of the sea, Ray reclines the fish floating in the sea in a mistling.
 It is usually quite difficult to hold onto Seto's torso just by the force of his feet.
 But with Ray's physical ability, that's quite easy.
 Then, they store the fish, and the fish that is about to sink into the sea is put into the sea by Seto, who holds it in his stomach.

(There are more fish sinking into the sea than I expected.)

 Ray was a little disappointed about this, but the fish that could not be stored in the mistling here are not completely wasted because they fit in the stomachs of the crabs and others in the sea.
 In the end, he succeeded in collecting about 80 to 90 percent of the fish, and Seto also succeeded in picking up a certain number of fish that were about to sink into the sea.

"Now, Seto. Are you aiming for a bigger fish next time?"
"Gruly!"

 At Ray's words, Seto exclaims joyfully.
 For Seto, his vacation in the ocean -- fishing to be exact -- is that he can stay with Ray all day and eat as many delicious fish as he wants, so this should not offend him.
 Then again, Seto flies over the sea in search of delicious fish.
 I was able to find a monster in the sea a few times along the way, but did you sense the signs of Seto, or did you simply find food and head for it?
 Regardless of the reason, even Ray and Sett can't attack if they're immediately submerged deep in the sea.
 No, is it right to say that we may be able to attack, but we cannot defeat them?

"Well... there are a lot of small fish, but I can't find tuna."

 There is no small shadow of fish visible from above the sea.
 But most of the fish that you see from there are small ones, mostly small ones such as horse mackerel and sardines.

"Oh, but I'd rather eat fried horse mackerel." But is it difficult to catch them because they are small? -- well, I don't know if it's really horse mackerel or not."

 If it's just fried horse mackerel, Ray also remembers how to make it.
 It's not that difficult because you just put flour on the fish, put it through a beaten egg, and fry it with bread crumbs.
 ...but in the case of Ray, he has never dealt with horse mackerels first, nor has he done anything to scale them.
 Even if you could catch horse mackerel, you would hardly be able to cook it well.
 But to get a grip on a man, you don't have to worry about cooking at all, as long as you need a stomach first and a bistol who is good at cooking.

"We need nets, after all." ...to-morrow, I'll look for a nearby fishing village or port city. Maybe they're fishing with nets."
"Gruly!"

 Ray nods that way to Seto, who cries out, "Maybe I can buy some fish, too.
 A tuna or similar size fish can be easily caught using the eyes of a spear or nebra in the case of a ray.
 But if it's a small... horse mackerel-like fish Ray wants, it's undoubtedly much easier to get from a real fisherman than from a real fisherman.However, since it's a summer sea, it's a different story if you go fishing for vacation.k.a. vacation.
 The reason why Ray and his colleagues came to the sea like this is because they wanted to catch fish as much as possible, but recently they have been working too hard, so they want to enjoy their vacation.
 In fact, he retaliated against criminal organizations in other countries that had been making fun of the construction of the guillem from the forest of Trent and the accompanying obstruction of other nobles, defeating a large number of giants prepared by the criminal organizations, accompanying those who had been brainwashed by the criminal organizations on their way to Guillem with the resistance, returning to Guillem to help with the extensions, and defeating robbers who had existed in large numbers around Subursta.
 Moreover, these are only major events, and if you add up the minor disturbances, they will be much more numerous.
 Having been so busy, it was only natural that I wanted to come on vacation and change my mind.

(Well, it seems that in this world we do swim in the river, but basically we don't swim in the sea.)

 This is purely because there are more vicious monsters in the sea than in places like rivers and lakes.
 Of course, there are no monsters in rivers, lakes, marshes, ponds, etc., but the sea is definitely better than the sea in terms of the number and types of monsters.

"Well, for the time being... I'll have enough for tonight's cooking."

 In this case, the effective way is not to attack a huge fish without fail, but to attack the surrounding area in a unified manner.
 Deciding so, Ray pulls out the death size, which is called his symbol, from Mistilling.

"Hit!"

 The blade of the attack, released from the death size, flies straight to the swimming sea level of a herd of fish.
 Then, as soon as the blade hits the sea surface, it releases its power to the surrounding area.
 The blade of the attack advanced through the sea to a certain extent, cutting through the sea itself.
 Needless to say, the seaweed will soon return to its original state.
 But... the impact that was generated the moment the flying sword touched the seawater caused nearly ten fish swimming near the sea level to faint and float to the surface.

(Was the Power Slash more shocking? No, but then I would have fallen directly into the ocean.) If you think so, you should have been glad to have killed him.)

 That's what Ray thought, as he watched the herd rush away from Ray and Sett.
