55 - We all had a barbecue at the beach... lucky to catch it."






 Me, Lucky, and Shannon were at the beach after retrieving the lumber.

 We gave the lumber to Mr. Gargoyle in the box yard.

 He is now preparing the house for us.



 The box garden is really useful.



 We reached the sea in no time.

 Lucky is really fast.



"The ocean is beautiful, isn't it?"

"It really is. It's so shiny.

----"So what are you going to do with it? ----



 The white beach and the blue ocean spread out in front of us.

 Since we were at the beach, we decided to have a barbecue together.

 After that, we are going to fish and release the caught fish into the box garden.



"Hey guys, we're going to barbecue at the sea. Stop working and come out for a while.



 I call out, and everyone comes out of the box garden and onto the beach.



"We're going to have a barbecue now.

"Pappa, what's a barbecue?"



"A barbecue is when you cook meat and vegetables outside and eat them together. Can you pile up rocks here?

"Yes, I can!



 Patra piles up the stones and puts a griddle on top of them.

"Now, we're going to grill a lot of meat and vegetables, so eat a lot of meat and vegetables.

"Okay!"



 Mr. Gargoyle cuts up the ingredients for the meal, and Domorte adjusts the fire.

 Ciel, the skybird, brings us nuts and other ingredients.



 The nuts were ...... kaka nuts, which are used for seasoning.

 They are very good with meat and vegetables.



"Thank you Ciel!

 Ciel continued to bring us many more nuts.

 It was near the sea, but there seemed to be a lot of things nearby.



 Then I continue to cook meat and vegetables.

----Meat, meat, meat!

 Lucky is just chomping down on the grilled meat.



 The grill is so big that there is enough room for everyone, not just Lucky.



 I look for Domorte to see if he is also eating meat, and find a beautiful woman whom I have never seen before.



 Who was that? 

 I looked at her and she spoke to me.



"Rock, this meat is very tender and tasty.

"I'm sorry. Who are you?



Who are you?" "Oh, I'm Domorte."

 The beautiful woman turns back into a skeleton and then into a beautiful woman again.



I'm surprised. Illusion magic.

Yes. In this form, I feel as if I have a sense of taste.



 Domorte is happily eating meat.

 I don't know if Domorte needs vegetables or not, but I tried to serve him some roasted carrots, but he moved his plate away from me.



"The carrots are fine. Give me some cavetto."



 He didn't seem to like carrots. Carrots are good too.



"Pappa! The meat is delicious!"

 The orange-antes are happy to eat meat.

"You have to eat your vegetables, too."

"Okay, okay..."



"Hey, what is this sauce? I've never had sauce like this before.

 As I was grilling the meat, Lara came up to me.



This sauce is my secret sauce. It has grated onion and apple as a secret ingredient.

"I didn't know there was such a delicious sauce. ...... This is a good thing I joined you."



 Lara is all about the food, isn't she?



 When everyone has finished eating, I grill and eat my share of the meat.

"Yes. It's delicious."



"Papa! Can I go play in the ocean?"

"Sure. Just don't go too far.




"Shannon, let's go!"



"What?"

 Shannon and Domorte were wearing swimsuits.



"How are you doing, Mr. Rock?"

 They spun around in front of me.

 There's a lot of skin on display, but that's okay because there's no one else around.



"Oh, no, I think it looks great on you. But what's wrong?"

"Patra made it for me."



 Patra is proudly showing off her chest like, "Ahem.

 Good job, Patra!



"I'm going to the beach!"



"Rock, your nose is getting long!"

 Domorte comes up beside me.



No, I'm not.

"No, I'm not. I have a nice body, don't I?

Yeah, if you didn't know you were a skeleton.



 Domorte certainly has a nice body, but he is a skeleton, so it's a bit of a stretch to say that he has a nice body.



"I'm going to go play with Patra and the others. Come on, Lara!"



 As I wonder what she is going to do from afar, Domorte manipulates the water and creates a big slide.

 Then he climbs up to the top at once with water magic.



 That looks like a lot of fun.

 Shannon and Patra are playing with a lot of excitement.



------Rocky! I want to play too! ----

"Okay, great!"



 The last time they played with Isaac's breastplate, but this time they use the lid of an iron pot instead.

"Here we go!"



 Lucky wags his big tail and swings it around.

 Then he runs off at once.



 Since I usually ride Lucky, I am reminded of how fast he is.

 He is moving at a surprisingly high speed.



 Even if I throw it and it moves a while later, it still manages to catch it.



------ This is fun. The last time I played this game was in a dungeon. It's nice to play on a beautiful beach.

"Good for you. We've been having a lot of problems lately.



 I looked out to sea and saw wyverns and gargoyles plunging from the sky into the ocean at high speed.

 Everyone is smiling happily.



 I was happy too.

 When Lucky gets bored, we decide to go fishing.



"Lucky I'm going fishing, what do you say?"

--"I'm in! I'm going to catch a big one.



 I throw my line in off the cliff.

 Lucky has his tail dangling in the water.



 I don't know if that's going to catch anything, but it's nice to have time to slow down.

 Quiet time.



"Here it comes!"

 My fishing rod is pulled. The pull is quite strong.

 The fish was tough, but I caught a big one.



 When I brought it into the box garden, I was able to release it into the sea without turning it into a sacred beast, since it was not a demon.

 Maybe if I brought some small fish and released them into the sea, they would become abundant.



 When I returned to the sea, Lucky was pulling his tail hard.

"You think you can catch something?"

--"Of course! I can catch anything.



 He pulled up the tail with a smile on his face.

 That's a big fish!



 A beautiful tail and ...... a human upper body!

 What's that? Could this be a mermaid?



 Her beautiful scales were shining.
