1682 Episode 1682



"Well... what should I say, this?" ...that's all I can say. That's terrible."

 Everyone... even Ray and Sett nod to Viehra's words.
 But it's only natural. Monsters the size of Seto had been dragged this far without being able to escape with a harpoon.
 Naturally, when a monster of that size came to shallow water, he could not hide himself in the sea, and his whole body was damaged by rocks.
 The scales peel off, bleed and see flesh.
 With such scars spreading all over her body, Vihela's impression of what she described as terrible was natural.

"You may say so," There's no way to get this guy off the hook in that situation, so there's nothing we can do about it. ...and this is a monster. Well, I expected it."

 Is it fish or monsters?..that's what Ray didn't know when he was at sea, but if he could pull it up like this, it's clear.

"I expected it when I skipped the scales."

 Generally speaking, it is unthinkable to think of a fish that can fly scales.
 No, there is also a fish called a teppo fish that spouts water sharply from the mouth and kills insects with the water, so in Elgin, I wonder if there is a fish that catches prey by skimming scales.

"But, of course, I don't know this monster." Bistol, don't you know?"

 Here Ray asked Bistol because he knew about a monster called Guztos.
 But when asked, Bistol shakes his head regretfully.

I'm sorry, but I've never seen this monster before. I don't think it's strange to be famous because it's this big."

 In the first place, Bistol is also a merchant who works in guillem and around the frontier... in other words, without the sea.
 That's why they followed the Lays to catch fish from the sea.
 What I knew about Guztos was just a coincidence.

"Well, then... Marina?"
"It's my first time seeing it,"
"Elena?"
"I don't know the same,"
"Vihela?"
"It's my first time, too.
"…I'll just ask you." Bune?"
"Yes,"

 At Ray's words, Bune muttered a few words as usual.
 But this time, Ray understood what Bune meant.
 because Bune was shaking his head.
 It's clear that Bune doesn't know much about the monster either.

"Well, then... for the time being, shall we keep at least the magical stones?" I'll be back later to prove the punishment."

 No one opposes Ray's opinion.
 If you knew what kind of monster this monster was, you could have dismantled it here... but since you don't know that, there is a possibility that the part that you disassembled and threw away might be some kind of material, or the part that proves to have been put down.

(Well, I guess I can eat a lot.) ...it looks like a black sea bream to the side.)

 I look at monsters again and think so deeply.
 Yes, the monster attacking Ray and Sett was a black sea bream.
 Of course, it is three meters long, and black sea breams that attack by skimming scales are not ordinary black sea breams.
 Among the fish Ray knew, it looked like black sea bream, and there were many other small differences besides the size.

(I can't deny the possibility that the scale of the place that had been shaved by rocks had been peeled off, even though they had been flung so much.)

 While looking at fish monsters, he immediately pulls out a knife to take out the magic stone.
 Nearly half of the monster's body is still submerged in seawater, and small fish and crabs are gathering, perhaps by sniffing the blood from it.
 Ray didn't want to be eaten by fish or crabs as much as possible because he was a monster he had knocked down, but when he thought that he'd bumped his body into a rock many times before he pulled the monster this far, he was even strangely convinced that it was too late.

(Well, if you think you can clean up the internal organs, wouldn't it be bad if there were fish or crabs?)

 There are many monsters that can sell internal organs as ingredients, but by the time they reach this point, half of them have been scattered in the sea.
 That being the case, it didn't seem meaningful to take out the internal organs now, so I thought of using them as food for fish and crabs.
 I don't think we'll be able to gather around our internal organs and eat ourselves.

"With such a big fish, it must be pretty big in terms of its filling. -- Ray and Sett would have eaten up easily."

 Marina muttered as she looked at the fish again.

"Gruly!"

 Then, having heard Marina's words, Seto exclaimed joyfully.
 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Well, if you're going to take the magic stone, you'd better do it quickly. You know, there are quite a few fish and crabs coming together..."

 When Ray looked into the sea again at Bistle's words... there was an overwhelmingly large crowd of fish and crabs there.
 No, not only that, but some even look like octopus.

"It's gathering a great deal,"

 Mumbling dumbfoundedly, Ray quickly pulls the magical stone out of the monster's body.
 The belly part was torn on the way here, so it was successful to remove the magical stone without any trouble.
 Then I put the monster's corpse in the mistling... ...and looked at the net on the rock a short distance away.
 The net there... to be exact, the fish in the net was caught by Ray before he was attacked by monsters.
 While fighting the monster, Ray held the net in the hand of the one who didn't hold the death size or harpoon.
 When I have to use both hands, I'll try to put them on my back.
 ...and as a result, the fish in the net were safe, but... instead, Seto's back smelled slightly fishy.
 But for Yero, does Seto feel much better about his height, or does it stimulate his appetite... he stayed still on the back of Seto, who was eating fish in a good mood?

"Yes! Yes!

 Ray feels relaxed looking at Seto, but he is pulled back by Bune.

"What's the matter?"
"Yes!"

 In Ray's words, Bune goes under the sea... looking at the place where the monster had been until recently, and then reaching out to Ray.
 Not knowing what it means, Ray just nods his head.
 We've been around for quite a while, and we've come to understand pretty much what Bune wants to say.
 But it's just a general rule, not everything.
 As a result, Ray's gaze is directed at Vihela, the only person who has a complete understanding of what Bune means.

"Vihela, what is Bune talking about?"
"You want a net, don't you?" It's not a net with fish in it, it's the net that scoops up."

 When Ray was told that, he turned his eyes to the sea.
 There, moderately large fish and octopuses scramble to eat the monster's empty internal organs.
 Some of them resembled urticaria, which was a kind of fish paradise.
 With such a large collection of fish and crabs, it's no wonder you want to use a net instead of fishing them all the way to catch them.

"All right, look,"

 Say so, and hand the net from the mistling to Bune.
 In Ray's eyes, Bune, holding the net, seemed reasonably pleased. ...however, Bune's expression was correct, as usual, that he felt an interesting atmosphere.
 Bune stands on a rock with a net in her hand.
 Bune's gaze at the sea from the top of the rock is serious from the bottom of course.That's as good as a regular fisherman.
 All eyes were drawn to the seriousness of Bune... until Bune's hand, holding the net, moved rapidly.
 And in the net that had scooped up the sea, there were several fish... and even fish resembling sea urns.

"Oh, that's great, Bune," The fish is pretty violent, and it seems pretty difficult to catch... but it tastes pretty good, doesn't it? It seems to have a texture that's close to meat, not fish."

 Hearing meat, not only Bune... but also Seto and Yero look at Bune interestingly.
 Of course it's not that I don't like fish, but I guess I also like meat.
 With Seto and Yero's eyes, Bune gives a slightly disappointing atmosphere... gently passes a fish resembling a urchin to Seto and Yero.
 The surface is slippery, but the veneer doesn't look particularly difficult to hold.
 Is it his skill as a thief around here...or is it simply because Bune is used to it?
 Ray couldn't tell it, but there's no doubt that Bune decided to give Seto and Yero the fish resembling the urn.
 ...but perhaps it was because there were still a few similar fish in the sea.

"Glu?"

 a set of round eyes asking if it's okay
 To this set, Bune nods silently.
 The fish that are similar to the urticaria are placed on the ground... where there are countless fine stones.
 Yero, who was watching Seto's back, bites the fish he put on the ground when he descends to the ground with a small feather.
 The fish, resembling a urchin, is not that big.
 That'll be gone as soon as you eat them together.

(No, let alone Seto, can you eat Yero to the fullest?)

 Considering the size of Yero's body, there is inevitably a difference in the size of his stomach.
 With that in mind, Ray treats the fish in the net like mackerel, and stores them one after another in a mistling.
 ...there was no fish to come in attracted by the smell of normal fish's blood, perhaps because there were still huge black sea bream-like monster viscera.
 And after about ten minutes...

"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"

 When I finished processing all the fish and put them in a mistling, I heard a voice like that.
 It's easy for Ray to understand that it's the cry of a yellow... and then he turns his eyes to the way he hears it.
 It was there that the same scene as we had seen in the river was spreading, in which Yero fought crabs.
 But if not... it's probably the size of a crab dealing with Yero.
 Compared to the river crabs that he used to fight in the river, the crabs that he now fights are clearly larger.
 The crab's growing size means that its crust will naturally harden.

"Squeak!"

 Yero attacks crabs, but the crabs move quickly... and hide themselves in a gap between rocks to take advantage of their geographical advantage.
 If hidden like that, no matter how small the yellow is, you can't attack the crabs in between the rocks.

"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"

 Yero shouted menacingly, "Come out!" but there was no sign of crabs coming out of the gap.

(Unlike in rivers, crabs don't deal with yellow guys? ... Well, there's a place where they can hide themselves, but there's no way they'll fight with yellow guys.)

 While crabs were brave, they probably had no place to hide.
 Thinking so, Ray then turns his gaze to Seto.
 Seth, who ate up fish resembling a urn, was lying down, not caring at all, even if it was a pebble or rocky ground instead of soft soil.
 The soft sunshine and fresh sea breeze would be the perfect time for Seto to take a nap.

"I can't go offshore without a little more time,"
"Well, will you help me with some fishing, then?"

 Ray nods to Elena, saying that he has time anyway, and enjoys fishing with Elena... and with Marina and Vihela.
