I think sea breeze is a unique atmosphere. I've heard that it contains salt, but I don't know what the difference is. Maybe I just have a vague feeling that it's a little different.
　With the wind blowing, we walked along the crowded harbor with Fate.

''Hmmm. It seems like there aren't many big ships for all the activity.

　I muttered to myself as I looked at the view of the harbor, having regained my composure compared to the first. The harbor in the royal capital of the Hydra Kingdom, where the fishing industry is thriving... the size and activity of the harbor is truly amazing.
　But one thing I wondered about was that most of the ships docked there are not very large. No, of course, there are various aspects of shipbuilding technology and other things that are different from Earth, but even if you discount that, it seems to me that only small ships are docked there.

'Hm?　Oh, by the way... there are no demons in the world Kai-chan was in, right?
Oh, yes.
Many of the sea monsters live offshore. Of course, there are lots of fish, but fishing off the coast isn't very profitable for the average person. You have to hire adventurers to fight against the monsters, and the boats have to be strong.
'I see ... so since you don't travel very far, you mean you're a small boat that can be turned around?'
Well, of course there are boats that catch demons, but the mainstream is fishing around the points in the coastal waters in small, easily-movable boats. Many of the fish are also escaping from the demons to the nearby seas, and even then they can catch enough.

　I have thought this many times, but if the world is different, so is common sense. There are certain cultures in this world that have been cultivated over the course of history, and it's really interesting to know the differences between them.

'Don't demons come to the seas around here to chase fish?
It's not absolutely impossible, but basically demons want to live in places where the magic power of nature is dense. Magic power is found all over the world, but depending on the terrain and environment, the magic power tends to be thicker or lighter in different places. In the case of the oceans, it tends to be thicker in the distant seas and deep seas. That's why there are not many demons in the near seas.
Hmm, there's a lot of that going around.
''In the land, high mountains and deep forests are often the places where the dense magic power gathers. Well, this is just a characteristic of the human world. It's a good idea to learn a little bit more about the magical world, if you're interested.
Yes, sir.

　Somehow, Fate-san seems to have lost quite a bit of her nervousness, and her expression seems to be softening. Being able to chat with each other in this way, we are able to relax and enjoy our date with each other.

Speaking of which, it's almost lunchtime, what do you want to do?
''........Oh, yeah. I'm okay with it, but it's hard for Kai to eat, isn't it?

　As a god, eating and drinking is a preference, not a necessity for Mr. Fate. There is no problem for Mr. Fate if he doesn't eat anything at all. But I'm not.
　I'm not a fan of this, but I'm a fan of the fact that it's a good idea to have something to eat, especially since I'm quite hungry because I was very nervous this time around.

Kai-chan, do you know where you can find something to eat?　I may eat sweets and stuff, but I rarely eat food, so I don't know of any good restaurants...
'Yes, some of them ... oh, but wait ...'
Yeah?

　I'm not too familiar with the Hydra Kingdom either, but I've been reading through Black's eating guide, so I can think of a few potential restaurants.
　However, the problem here is Fate-san's presence. It seems that this time they're manipulating fate so that people around them don't notice Fate-san's presence, so they won't make a scene when they go to the restaurant.
　But if I'm not mistaken in my prediction I think Fate-san doesn't like places with too many people.

　Today is a date, so I didn't do that, but when she usually goes out, Fate-san manipulates her fate not so that the people around her won't notice her, but so that 'others can't get close to the place where she is.
　That's why when I first met Fate-san, I didn't see any people around me at all. Then, this place.........

''Fate-san, is there a place like a sandy beach near here?''
There's a lot of things, though, right?
Eating at a restaurant is fine, but why not buy something from a food cart and eat there while looking out at the ocean?
Kai-chan.

　After hearing my suggestion, Fate-san looks like she's thinking about something for a moment, and then she tells me in a soft voice.

I'm going to have to say it. I'd like that, too.
So we have a deal, then.
"Thank you for thinking of me, Kai. Thank you for thinking of me.
Well it's a date, so it's best to have fun together.

　I've been told by a lot of people that I'm easy to show my face. So it was easy to find out what I was thinking. Well, Fate-san looks happy, so there's no problem at all.
　And so the policy was decided, and as I was heading to the stall, Fate-san picked at the hem of my clothes with a small hand.

''Fate-san?''
Hey Kai-chan.
Yes, of course.
Thank you.

　I responded immediately and was gently offered..........holding a small hand that fit perfectly in mine. It's not like a lover's connection or anything, we just held hands as normal.
　

　Dear Mom, Dad - Little by little, we're starting to enjoy our dates together. And then I started to have a little more room to think... and I realized... I'm going to be able to say that I love her as she shyly grasps my hand back, with her cheeks stained with embarrassment, and that's how I feel about her.
