2111 Episode 211.



jellyfish
 It's a natural being in the sea.
 There are actually some jellyfish on Earth that live in fresh water, but Ray knew that jellyfish were in the ocean.
 The jellyfish now in front of Ray's eyes are undoubtedly swimming in the lake.
 Not only that, but some jellyfish fly in the sky, though Ray didn't know how.
 The jellyfish are smaller in size than the palm, and larger in size than the set.
 As expressed in terms of size and size, many jellyfish were swimming underwater and in the air, shining all over their bodies.

"This is... frankly amazing."
"Glu".

 Seto's voice snarls in agreement with Ray's words.
 With Ray and Sett nearby, the jellyfish herd shows no sign of attacking.
 It's such a scene that makes me wonder if I didn't even notice Ray and Sett's presence in the first place.

(Monster... right? But aren't you hostile to me, just like the lizard guys?)

 Watching the jellyfish glistening at night, Ray thinks so.
 At least the jellyfish currently drifting near Ray and Sett will not attack.

"Do you understand my words?"

 I'll try to talk to Ray in a tentative way.
 But jellyfish don't seem to respond to Ray's words.
 Nevertheless, it just drifts near Ray and Sett without attacking them.

(Can't you understand the language? Even the Zozos couldn't understand the language, so it's not funny. But if you don't attack me, do you mean you're essentially a peaceful monster? ...I don't think peaceful monsters are the same.)

 Ray thinks so while looking at jellyfish floating in the air and in the water, but there are actually monsters that are less aggressive.
 I wonder if the jellyfish floating around me are the same and wonder what to do.
 If you really don't show any signs of antagonism, you can just leave it alone.

"Seto, what should I do? Do you think I should go back to everyone's place?"
"Gururu? Gururu".

 Ray's words make me want to watch a little more here.
 For Seto, the beautiful sight that was spreading out in front of him... and even the fantastic sight, if possible, would have been something he was.
 However, given the current situation, I can't do that.
 Eventually we'll need to go and let everyone know who this jellyfish is, but a little more... I really wanted to see it a little more.
 Normally, Ray has to say something to such a set.
 Given their current circumstances, the sight of this jellyfish's body shining by the tower of their birth is an unknown fear.
 It was a jellyfish floating in the water and in the air, but each of the jellyfish shone differently.
 There are light bulbs moving around in the transparent body, and if you think so, the light is not a sphere, but a belt, and some jellyfish change their shape freely.

(I've seen illumination on TV... in a way, it's a natural illumination. No, it's a living illumination, not a natural one?)

 Watching the jellyfish flying around him, Ray hesitates to say anything about Seto's attitude, but suddenly one of the jellyfish approaches him.
 Watching the approaching jellyfish, Ray probably didn't feel alarmed either because he couldn't feel hostile to the fantastic jellyfish.
 I didn't wonder if they were just keeping me off guard for a second or two, but actually jellyfish were right next to Ray... and they didn't attack me even when they approached me so much that I could touch them with a little movement, let alone reach out.

"Oh,"

 The jellyfish that came to Ray's side were relatively large jellyfish with an umbrella part of one meter and feet included.
 Large jellyfish move around on Ray's side and rub against him as if they were fond of him.
 It was like Seto's attitude as if he were spoiling Ray.

"Do you understand what I'm saying? I don't think you understood me before."

 Ray muttered that, but the jellyfish still didn't respond to him at all.

"Well, this is... You don't know what it is? I don't know what it is... Oh, I see."

 Confused by the jellyfish rubbing against him, Ray calls out to Sett, feeling indescribable.
 Seth asks, "What's the matter?" Ray opens his mouth, surrounded by jellyfish.

"Move slowly and slowly towards the shore, and maybe this jellyfish will come with you."
"Grull".

 At Ray's words, Seto whispers when he understands, and slowly flaps his wings according to Ray's instructions.
 Seto fluttered his wings as he stayed on the lake.
 From the situation, we flutter our wings a little... slowly, and then we move on to the shore.
 As Ray had expected, the jellyfish, who had rubbed against Ray, seemed to be particularly reluctant and moved with him.
 Normally, Seto cannot fly with anyone but Ray on his back.
 If you're a child, you'll still be able to manage it, but if you put a jellyfish on your back that's as long as two meters long, you'll never fly.
 Still, it's not exactly the jellyfish on Seto's back, but the jellyfish themselves are flying in the sky.
 This kept Seto free of the weight of jellyfish and allowed him to fly normally.

"Oh,"

 About a dozen other jellyfish that have seen the jellyfish move with Ray and Sett.
 The jellyfish entangled in Ray may not be the shining jellyfish boss.
 At least there are several other jellyfish larger than the jellyfish entangled in Ray.

(Is there a faction or something else?)

 Ray doesn't understand the principle of the jellyfish's behavior and has some doubts, but when he thinks about the current situation, he decides that there will be no particular problem, so he goes straight to the shore.
 It took a few seconds to get to where the jellyfish were, but now the set is flying slowly in the air to match their speed.
 As a result, it took several minutes to reach the shore.

"Rae, Ray?"

 As we approach the shore, we hear such voices.
 The reason for the slight tremor is probably because of the jellyfish entangled in the ray.
 You might have simply wondered if Ray was possessed by a jellyfish.
 The jellyfish were glowing, and as we approached the shore we could clearly see the jellyfish wrapped around them.

"Yes. For the time being, it's clear that this jellyfish can only shine and fly in the sky, and it's not particularly aggressive."
"No, because... are you really all right?"

 To the adventurer who spoke to him, Ray has an unusual appearance: he is wrapped in a jellyfish with transparent, shiny parts.
 When I see him like that, he doesn't nod right away even if he says he's OK.
 But in reality Ray was nothing special.
 If you tap the jellyfish that are entangled with you as if they were giving you a signal, the jellyfish will leave the ray easily, perhaps because they understand it.
 And away from Ray, the jellyfish, flying through the air as before, were beautiful enough to capture the eye of the beholder.
 It was not just adventurers, but even knights and lizards.
 Even Zozo and Gaga fly in the sky... no, they're fascinated by the sight of several jellyfish swimming in the sky.

"This is... great..."

 Ray doesn't know who it was that muttered so.
 However, it is understandable to Ray that the person who sees the scene before him mutters so much.
 Nevertheless, the sight of more jellyfish swimming in the air and in the water than only Ray and Sett had seen... was even more fantastic than the sight in front of him now.
 That's why I can still look at it with more leeway than others.

(But what the hell are these jellyfish? When you see them shining like this, you call them with light? ...I don't know what to do with them.)

 What are jellyfish doing? What are you thinking? What are you thinking?Ray has no idea what that is.
 Nevertheless, I could predict that these would be instinctive, given that jellyfish did not seem to have high intelligence.
 ...although I still didn't know exactly what it meant.

"Well, Ray... these jellyfish... don't you have any animosity here?"

 Suddenly, one of the adventurers asks so.
 For an adventurer, he must have felt uneasy about the fantastic beauty of the jellyfish, which was dancing in front of him.
 I wonder if this beauty will attract the attention of the viewer and take the opportunity to do something.
 In fact, Ray was convinced by the adventurer's words.
 If you've never thought the same way, it's a lie.
 Still, the jellyfish caught on to them in the lake did not seem to do anything in particular.
 With that in mind, Ray's judgment is that there's probably no problem.
 But it was just Ray's idea, and there was a good chance that it was actually different.

"I don't think it's a problem. It didn't matter if I actually went to see the lake, did it? The number of jellyfish that came here is very small compared to the number that I saw in the beginning, so I don't think we need to worry about that."
"No more jellyfish..."

 Watching the muttering adventurer, Ray suddenly realizes.
 The adventurer in front of us knows what jellyfish are.
 Gilm is surrounded by rivers, but there is no sea.
 In other words, if you grew up in Guilm, you would never have seen jellyfish.
 Or maybe I've heard it from others.

(And this adventurer is the type who came to Gilm himself.)

 It's not funny, in particularly.
 It is now that a large number of adventurers have come to Gilm in search of work, but only a small number of adventurers who are confident in their arms have come before the extension begins.
 Given that he was an adventurer who, as a skilled man, was in charge of guarding the Tower of Birth, it is probable that he was an adventurer who came to Gillum.
 That's why it doesn't matter.
 Or have you ever seen a flying jellyfish that is said to be rare in winter?

"You're a monster, aren't you?"
"Maybe, though they are monsters without magical stones."

 When asked by an adventurer who knew the jellyfish, Ray replies so.
 Monsters in this lake have no magical stones.
 At least the lizard monster was nowhere to be found.
 If so, the only way to tell the difference between monsters and normal creatures is whether they are behaving in ways that normal creatures can't -- in this case, jellyfish fly.
 However, it's just the Ray's perception.
 By Ray's knowledge, it is impossible for jellyfish to fly, but it is highly likely that the lake has been transferred from another world, not from this world or from one of the Gran Dragonian empires.
 Perhaps in the world where this lake has spread, jellyfish live in fresh water and fly freely in the sky can fly freely.

(Is that a little unreasonable?)

 Ray doesn't think so of his own idea, but if he actually saw the jellyfish flying in front of him, he wouldn't care.
 Looking at the jellyfish flying like this, I was satisfied enough to just see the jellyfish that existed in front of me... the sight that seemed to me to be flying in the sky.
 How long has it been... the jellyfish that was dancing in the sky soon left the Rey's presence, wondering if they were satisfied with the dance.
 All the jellyfish we've been dancing follow as soon as the first one leaves.
 Oh... one of the people watching the jellyfish dance screams regretfully, but did it sound like a jellyfish or not?
 At any rate, the jellyfish would disappear from the front of the lays and return to the center of the lake.
