An A-Ranked Adventurer’s “Slow-living”

"Oh! I caught it."

"Wow! What's this?"

"Sixth!"

"Look, I'm three!"

Downstream where the flow of the river is gentle. Many fish are swimming on the crystal clear water, probably because of mossy stones and grassy areas that fish would like.

Thanks to that, when we feed and drop the needle, it will bite well.

Although the Toac had known where the fish gathered, I think it's lucky to have so many fish.

I have to give my dinner and Elgis, so I have to catch a lot without missing this machine.

"Oh, Ayu."

Looking at the fish caught, it was Ayu.

This is delicious again when grilled with salt. It's a fish I've eaten many times, but salt goes well with that light white. My favorite fish among river fish.

When I remember the taste in my mind, saliva overflowed in my mouth.

Drag the line extending from the fishing rod and put the Ayu in the bucket where water was drawn.

"That means that the school of fish in that area is all Ayu. Let's aim there."

Re-feed the needle and fly it a little further away.

Then, the needle sinks with a chirp, approaching the Ayu herd by the flow of water.

Wait for the prey to hit the needle while moving the rod so that it looks like a lively bait.

The sound of water flowing with a cool sound is pleasant. If you take a big breath, you can smell water, moss, grass, and various natural scents.

The pleasure of fishing by bargaining with fish is the real pleasure of fishing, but I think it's also good to let yourself be naturally and enjoy something like a sense of unity.

I closed my eyes while feeling as if it was mixed with nature.

Judging from the tactile feeling, the fish are probably poking the bait. The rod in your hand becomes lighter.

Still. We should not catch it yet.

Judging by that, I waited a moment and the rod was pulled.

--now!

At the moment I thought, I pulled my hand with my rod.

If you pull the needle while feeling the weight that caught on the fish, the fish would come off on the surface of the water and splash.

"Come on again !? Early!"

Listening to Toac's astonishing voice, I drag the rod so that I cannot escape. He tried to escape to a place dotted with stones, whether by accident or his head spinning, but stopped it and pulled it.

Then, when the movement of the fish slowed down, he pulled up the rod at a stretch.

What appeared from the surface of the water is the same gray-green ayu that we saw earlier.

"Oh!

However, it is much larger than the normal size of 15 cm. There will be less than 20 centimeters.

For Ayu, it seems that it is a medium big game and eatable.

Slowly drag the Ayu suspended in the air. Escaped here is not an accumulation.

He squeezed into Ayu, squirming himself, but managed to pull it into the bucket.

"Hmm ..."

I feel a sense of accomplishment by catching a little big game.

It is still big compared to the Ayu that I caught earlier.

Today, I suddenly invited Flora to bother me, and even the fishing rods belonged to Elgis.

This is the fish that will be split into Elgis's house.

"Takku! What about that?"

"I can't catch the third one at all!"

When I called out to Toac on the other shore, a grumpy voice came back.

"Isn't it a grumpy face?"

"Does the face matter?"

I'm sure the fish is avoiding the animal instinct.

TOAC inserts a needle while wrinkling between her eyebrows.

Then re-apply the food twice, whether it was eaten or flowed by the fish.

In the meantime, I caught two Ayu.

I just feel good and feel sorry. However, competing for prey is one of the pleasures, so don't be shy.

"How ?? Can you catch a lot?"

Aisha and Flora fluttered her hair as she sunk her needle with fresh food.

The red and gold long hair swaying in the wind are very beautiful.

"how is it?"

Flora comes to me and asks me while holding down the hair flowing by the wind.

Thanks to wiping off the water with a towel, the blouse on my chest was no longer transparent. It's a secret that I was a little disappointed.

"I can catch quite a few. I have already caught nine animals."

"Nine haven't passed so much time yet? Are they amazing? And this Ayu is too big ..."

Flora looks into the bucket and says with an innocent smile.

If you are so praised, you don't want to catch more.

Did the adventurer who was praised by the beautiful guild's receptionist feel like this?

I didn't care at that time, but Flora might have been happy to jump into the dead if she was at the reception. Adventurer's guilds also do crazy things.

"... you know what you look like when you look at your face."

Aisha laughs while pointing at Toac.

I knew that Aisha was laughing, and there was a deep wrinkle between Toac's eyebrows. The irregular shivering of the pole is not to lure the fish, but to the anger.

However, the fish were lured by the anger, and Toac's rod turned down.

"Oh!

A toac that draws on the pole with a lively expression, changing from the top of the Buddha.

Apparently, it's over there.

"It looks like Toac's fish was eaten."

"... maybe shoes or pieces of wood?"

"It's a fish as far as you can see that."

If that was a piece of wood, Toac would be too poor.

Toac continues to pull tenaciously against the fish that run around the water.

I couldn't see it well because of the distance, but I could see a large white body for a moment. That would be a big hit. The proof is that Toac's pole is quite large.

It's bigger than my caught Ayu.

Toac pulls slowly in his direction with a serious expression.

We keep watching Toac while we are nervous. ... and

"Oh!"

Toac lifted the pole vigorously. A fish dive under the water soars into the air.

It was a white and elongated fish called a syragis.

Its characteristic is that it moves like a snake and snakes on a slimy body with a slimy body. When it is baked and eaten, it has a thick but light taste and is very delicious.

"Oh!

"Congratulations!"

"Hey, thank you!"

When I and Flora exclamate, Toac laughs shyly.

Then carefully remove the joyful caught serge from the needle and place it in the bucket.

Aisha leaks a word when he sees such Toac.

"... Finally, it didn't mean that the syragis slipped out of their hands and returned to the river.

"... I'll never do it for you!"
