2105 Episode 2105



"Hey, Ray! Try this! It's delicious!"
"... oh, yes."

 Ray, who had finished drawing the shape of the lake on paper, came down to the ground with Seto, where a bonfire was taking place.
 No, if it's just a bonfire, there's no particular problem. The problem is that the bonfire is broiling fish stuck in the branches of the tree.
 It goes without saying where the fish came from.
 Some of the adventurers who had been researching the lake earlier are looking at the fish that are burning with anticipation.
 Ray understands how it feels.
 When I was in Japan, I went to the river with a harpoon in summer, caught fish like sweetfish, yam, and Ivana, grilled them on a bonfire, and ate them as a side dish for lunch.
 It's just grilled fish sprinkled with salt, but I eat it at home...For some reason this one tastes better than the one my mother grilled at the supermarket.
 Some people eat it in nature, and others say fish such as ayu are simply delicious fish.
 So I know you're going to eat the fish you catch in the lake deliciously. I know... but I wonder if it's safe to eat the fish you catch in that lake.
 The biggest question is whether the fish caught in the lake are really OK to eat.
 It's true that the children of the lizardmen ate the fish they had caught themselves, and there was no particular problem.
 With that in mind, adventurers may be roasting fish.

(And in the end, if someone doesn't eat it, you won't know if it's poisonous or not. In that sense, these guys are stretching themselves to see if the fish is poisonous or not. ... Then don't I have to stop it?)

 Arranging himself, Ray opens his mouth to the adventurers who are grilling fish over a bonfire.

"It's all right to eat that fish, but be careful unless you know what it is."
"I know. We have some sort of potions and detoxification, so it shouldn't be a problem."
"...that's all you want to do, and eat grilled fish?"

 It's not so strange that Ray's words of amazement came out of his mouth when he said that he had even prepared a potion or poisoner.
 It was only natural that I should wonder why.
 Of course, Ray likes the act of eating.
 Still, Ray only eats safe food, and if asked if he wanted to eat an unknown fish that might be poisonous... he was honest that he wanted to refrain from eating it wasn't on the verge of starvation.

"I understand! I understand how Ray feels and I understand what he wants to say. But there are things that men have to do."
"No, I understand that there is such a thing, but if you say so, you can't nod honestly, can you?"
"Glu?"

 Surprisingly, it was Seto who questioned Ray's words.
 No one but Ray would have understood what Sett thought.

"Set?"
"Glu! Glu! Glu! Glu! Glu!"

 A set of voices that screamed, "There's something to be done to the Gryphon as well as to the man!"
 Ray sees Sett's state of affairs... suddenly he realizes.
 Looking at Ray's face, I saw him staring at the fish that had been grilled several times.
 It enabled Ray to understand what Sett wanted.
 That is to say, Seto wanted to eat fish himself, as did the adventurers who were grilling fish.
 I didn't understand that feeling, but I don't think it's going to be enough to feed Seto...

"Glu?"

 But as if he had read Ray's idea, Seto turned round eyes on Ray.
 Don't you want to eat it?
 If anyone who loved the sight saw Seto, such as Mireneu or Johanna, he would have succumbed to its power at the first blow.
 But Ray has always been with Sett.
 Even under the current circumstances, I don't want to be honest in accepting Seto's request.

"Cet is a glyphon, and is more resistant to venom than to man?"

 Accept Seto's request, though not honest.
 Ray is also vulnerable to the existence of Seto, though he doesn't express himself.
 No, I guess it's because it's Ray who's always with Sett, that's why he's so emotional.
 However, if this is really dangerous, neither Ray nor I would easily forgive him.
 But I still forgave it because, at the same time, some of Ray's mistrings were very effective -- and at the same time expensive -- potions and detoxification.

"Slurrurling.

 "Hey!" exclaims happily.
 ...the sound of Seto's song caused many ripples on the surface of the water, but unfortunately no one noticed it.

「●●●、●●?」

 Ray, who had been dealing with Seto, suddenly says something like that.
 When I turn my eyes to the voice, it's Gaga there.
 In some cases, Ray's intimidation appears to be a threat to him when he comes to asking questions, bowing down to his height nearly double that of Ray's as Ray.
 In fact, Ray is superior to Gaga in power, so it's not appropriate to threaten her.
 Anyway, what Gaga wanted to say was obvious when she saw him pointing to a fish grilled on a bonfire.
 You're probably asking Ray if he can eat now.
 I still don't know exactly what she said, but I'm sure she's not that wrong given her personality.
 As Gaga looks like that, Ray looks at the fish.
 It was just as well cooked as Gaga would like to eat fish there.
 Ray couldn't tell who did it, but there were some cuts on the surface of the fish, and the white flesh of the fish from there stimulates his appetite.
 with a gulp
 Watching the grilled fish with salt, Ray unintentionally swallows the spit in his mouth.

"Well, as far as I can see, it's about time to eat. It's well cooked."

 What scares me of river fish is parasites, after all... though this is a lake.
 But if it's cooked like this, you don't have to worry about it.
 However, if you know it's a fish with parasites, you wouldn't want to eat Ray either.

"Well! Then I'll eat first!"

 When one of the adventurers screams, he pulls out a fish skewer stuck by the bonfire and bites it in one gulp.

"It's hot! ... but this is delicious. No, it's really delicious."

 As he eats a bite or two of grilled fish with salt, the adventurer declares so.

"(I've never eaten fish in the lake, but basically it shouldn't be that different from river fish, right? If that's the case, the delicious food must be delicious, but it's that much of a compliment?")

 That's probably because Ray lived in the country around here.
 That's what I've been eating since I was little, like ayu, which is generally classified as a luxury fish.
 That's why it's become a standard of taste.
 It's a little different, but even if there's a wonderful nature that can become a World Heritage Site, it's similar to the fact that it's there, and it's not particularly impressive for those who live there.That's why Ray couldn't tell the adventurer repeatedly said it was so delicious.
 Of course, I wouldn't say it's bad, but...

(Oh, but Gilmoo doesn't usually get a chance to eat fresh fish. Isn't that funny considering that?)

 There is also a river near Gilm, so you can't catch river fish.
 However, given the number of inhabitants living in Gilm against the catch... let alone more people now than usual due to the extension work, there are not many opportunities to eat fresh river fish.
 Therefore, when it comes to eating fish, most of them were preserved foods like salted fish brought from the sea.
 In the case of Ray, a large amount of fish caught in the sea are in the mistyling, so we can always prepare fresh fish that can be eaten as sashimi.

"Isn't it delicious? Is there anything wrong with your body? Is it numb, nausea, or cold?"
"No, there's nothing like that. It's just a delicious fish."

 The adventurer, who was eating fish fresh from the oven and hot, replies to Ray.
 Ray confirmed the adventurer firmly, but as he said, there was nothing strange about it.
 I'm relieved to find out that it's a fish that doesn't have any real poisoned.

"First of all, as far as you can see, it's safe, so you can eat anyone who wants to eat it. ... However, as far as you can see, it's safe, and you should be careful that you may have some symptoms later."

 Ray says adventurers watching around reach for the fish, and the lizards reach for the fish a little later.
 Ray also steals a skewer of grilled fish.
 However, this is not for Ray to eat, but for Seto, who has round eyes and wants to eat by Ray's side.

"Look, Seto. But if you feel strange after eating this fish, spit it out right away."
"Glu".

 She replied to Ray's words, "It's all right!" but Ray, who knows how much he likes to eat, can't believe it completely.
 Ray likes to eat himself, so I fully understand Seto's desire to eat delicious food.

"You must be very careful.
"Hey, Ray. I understand you're worried about Seto, but isn't that too much of a worry? Seto is a glyphon, so you don't have to worry that much."

 an adventurer who eats fish and tells me so with astonishment.
 Other adventurers, as well as the adventurer, expressed concern about Ray.
 Ray's behavior may be questioned because they actually eat the fish in the lake.

(Well, is it better to say that this lake has moved from another world?)

 Adventurers eat fish without any danger because they think the lake has spread from somewhere in the world.
 In other words, the lake was also in the world, so he probably decided that there was no problem eating this fish.
 ...although there is no guarantee that fish from the same world will be safe.
 Wondering what to do, Ray turns to the knight, who, to some extent, knows the situation.
 The knight shakes his head in response to a glance meaningful of what to do.

(Is that all right?)

 That being the case, Ray decided to remain silent, since it was the knight who had the command here.

"Zozo, the Lizardmen... no, do you know without asking?"
'Yes, everyone says it's delicious.'

 That's what he said, but unlike other lizard men and gaga, he doesn't eat fish.
 As far as Ray knows, Zozo must have liked fish.
 But Zozo wonders why he doesn't eat fish and asks.

"Why don't you eat zozo?"
'I can't eat it when Mr. Ray hasn't.'
"... I see,"

 That reminds me that Zozo's loyalty was high.
 But for Ray, that's all... he doesn't want to eat anything like that until he eats it himself.

"For the time being, if you want to eat, you can eat it, but as long as you're a stranger, you can't say that there's no poison at all, so be careful about it."
"Is that all right?"
"Oh, I don't mind. I mean, I don't have to worry too much about that."

 Zozo was a little sorry for Ray's words... but he still reached for some grilled fish, perhaps because he was very interested in them.

(but quite a few are eating grilled fish, and they've caught quite a few again.)

 Ray rode a set and drew the shape of a lake in the air for about 20 minutes.
 The number of fish caught during that time has reached dozens.
 Given that I didn't have a fishing rod or net, I can only honestly wonder how many fish I've caught in this short time.
 I wondered if the fish were less alert because there was no one there, but I thought there was probably no monster there.
