Golden Experience

There were people running at sea.

It's just an anomaly, and normally it's a suspicious sight, but that's not the problem.

Apart from how it is done, if people are running through such places, they will normally be fed by marine monsters.

But there's no sign of that forever.

It's not that I wasn't attacked.

The monsters are attacking the shadows quite often.

But the innumerable marine monsters that attacked the shadow turned into corpses in an instant.

The ocean is a terrible place.

Always exposed to the food chain by monsters, so aggregated experience points will produce stronger monsters.

In this way, the powerful individuals born will be attacked by another group of monsters. The monsters who attacked will share the experience gained, and the stronger individuals will lose the significance of the herd and scatter.

The wide closed world of the ocean was built, with monsters hunting them again in groups and eating them forever.

A human figure who suddenly appeared at the bottom of the food chain.

For the marine monsters, it is a weak prey that means nothing more than a meal, but some people want it so much that they can get it out of their throats.

And the big monsters that targeted those hungry monsters also stopped by. Also, the larger monster that targeted the larger monster came closer.

As a result, even monsters that are close to the top of the ocean will appear.

That's what people say when they go to sea without thinking.

The same thing happened to this figure.

But the results were different.

The monsters that attacked each other gradually grew in size, but none of them could be shadowed.

At last, even a large shark-shaped monster, Halahelicoprion, who dominates the surrounding waters, appeared, but it also sank into blood and flesh in front of the shadow.

As soon as we get there, the sea will be quiet all at once.

Crouching down, Envy washed his bloody face as he poured out the water at his feet.

The Lord Rare Demon King is always beautiful.

Then Envy, the first of them, must always be beautiful.

Even if you can't help returning the blood, it's only natural to dress up afterwards.

Envi is a Leviathan and has acquired a variety of skills related to the sea and water.

One of them is the ability to run on the sea, a useful skill for people who are not good at swimming.

Most species are best at either swimming, running, or flying. Even if you can do other things, it is normal to be a little inferior to what you are originally good at.

Envy is certainly the best at swimming. In addition to "diving", you can use the wind attribute skill of "cavity" to travel underwater at high speeds. If you are in the ocean due to the "Sea of Japan", you may get a bonus for any action, and basically swimming is faster.

Regardless, I ran all the way to the sea in a "pseudo-state" because I wanted to take actions that resembled as much as possible the main demon king Rare.

Rare understood that what Envy was looking for was action and combat at sea, so he didn't want to let go if necessary, but he wasn't in such a hurry to cross the sea itself.

Instead, I was instructed to prioritize the investigation of the ocean and, if possible, the search for a monster named the Sea Emperor, so I invited the monster while imitating the Lord.

When Envy was still a baby.

I heard from the mother dragon who was alive at the time.

At the bottom of the Agile Sea lies the land of the Mermaids, which is ruled by a half-human half-fish monster, Ippiara, who calls himself the ruler of the sea.

An army of fishmongers led by Ippiara is no big deal, and for large marine monsters such as the Sugar Dragon, it is only bait, but it cannot be despised when it becomes a weaponized and controlled group.

As the number of fishmongers increased and their combat power increased, they built a kingdom on the bottom of the ocean and collectively consolidated their defenses to protect themselves from the large marine monsters.

It is highly likely that the Emperor of the Sea is Ippiara, the king of the Fisherman.

It's enough to look for it, so Rare knows the existence of the undersea kingdom.

If the master who lives on land knew, it would be quite a famous story. I mean, it's common sense. Envy did not say it because she did not feel the need to report it.

It is certain that large marine monsters fear the forces of the Mermaids, but they are like each other.

If there aren't so many, it's just a bunch of bait, like a fish man.

A sizeable army is needed for the Mermaids to fight the Halahelicopter Prions and Sugar Dragons.

Such large-scale actions are unlikely, so they usually drag to the bottom of the ocean, eating small herbivorous monsters and seaweeds at the bottom of the ocean.

But what if a huge chunk of meat fell right in front of you?

Will you just keep quiet?

That's not supposed to happen.

Even the dragons must feed enough people to hunt, and if they had a chance to get food, they'd want to do what they can.

Envy was on the move to lure the monsters, dispose of the monsters he ate, sink the bodies, and capture the fishmongers who would come to retrieve them.

Egilgarten, the fishman kingdom that dominates the ocean.

Its kingdom, which continues from ancient times, has been ruled by only one king.

It doesn't mean royalty that lasts for generations. Literally, the same king governs much more than the founding kingdom.

Ippiara of Rugal Abugal, a species born to king, was also called Sea Emperor, and his name was blown not only into the sea, but also into the continents of the earth.

The 1st Squad of the Fighters, who served such a great king, was still watching the realm on this day.

I can only fight medium-sized sharks and calcarodons with one squad, but even larger monsters can't get to the bottom because they're stuck in the seaweed forest.

Instead of going on expeditions out of the woods, it was common for regular sentry assignments to spin by squad.

Recently, some monster bodies sank west of the woods.

Oh, he's pretty with no wounds.

That's right. Oh, I wonder if it will fall again. Then the festival will open again.

Don't think too strange. Because I didn't know if I could eat it if the fisherman's head wasn't safe. Maybe it was a poisoned corpse. Give it a try at a festival like that. There's no group food poisoning waiting.

You don't even have to eat your guts.

The squad consists of 30 people.

If there are a few people, chatting won't have much impact on the search.

When it comes to sentry missions, it's more about appealing to the kingdom's territory than reconnaissance.

Those who wander into the area where Marman's army is wandering are attacked by the Kingdom. The goal is to teach nearby monsters.

The monsters would know better if they spoke a little.

There hasn't been a hunt like mobilizing fighters lately. The number of fishermen has also increased, and many small monsters can be caught. You don't have to force yourself to target a big guy... "

In the first place, there are no monsters who dare to hang around the kingdom. When that happens, we'll be involved in the significance of the fighters' existence.

If everything around you is a prey, all battles will be fishing.

Fuck you!

< ─ ─ Guys! Be quiet!... something's coming.

At that time, the captain's sharp voice echoed on the side of the crew.

A trained fighter, even if he's a loud and unscrupulous squad member during the mission.

Quietly shut up and stop moving quietly. Try not to move the fins as much as possible, and do not cause any vibrations.

In the ocean, even a little motion will make a sound. Don't move one of your fins when you whisper.

This training is the first time a fighter or fisherman gets hit.

It is only natural to be a fighter enough to go to war.

After a while of lurking like this, something huge slowly sank from the top.

At the same time, the smell of blood drifts.

It's a body.

The huge corpse fell over the forest, causing the marine snow that had been deposited in the seaweed to soar.

That size never falls into the woods.

The body appears to be a giant shark gigalodon.

A shark! You're lucky! It's a festival!

Don't leave the woods! It could be some kind of trap!

It's okay, Captain! There's no response from any large monsters nearby, and most of them will just be sunk by those who lost the competition for survival.

Tell me that's crazy! Then why don't you eat him if you win! Why did you just let it sink!

The monsters living in the sea are basically the same weight as the sea.

As a result, the body sinks very slowly when it dies. It is different from throwing stones at the bottom of the ocean.

Do you ever just miss such a slow sinking prey?

On top of that, the shark has a strange way of dying, as if it had been twisted with great power.

That means it is highly likely that the monster that defeated this Gigalodon was large enough to do so. It's hard to think that I threw it away because I can't eat it all.

I don't know, but I think he's with the other guy. There, it seems to be sinking over there and over there too.

Somewhere in the distant waters, they're killing monsters at random. I don't suppose we can get into the seaweed forest at all, and if we make a report on it, we can leave the body behind.

A powerful individual who lived in another waters has moved its territory.

If that were the case, it would be a serious matter.

There is a risk of changing the power balance in the surrounding waters.

Confused medium-sized monsters don't necessarily run wild in the woods, and if you allow such medium-sized monsters to stampede, the woods may be vandalized and affect the Kingdom's defenses.

<... no, no. Let's start with a report. I'll raise the report and ask for instructions, and if I can afford it, I'll collect the body.

Even if we collect them, they won't enter the woods or the kingdom in this size.

As before, it needs to be carefully cut and carried.

Things may not get worse while you're doing such a long time.

The captain is as serious as ever. Well, I see.

The crew nodded as if they were sniffing.

Young Marmen are honest, but their appetite tends to cloud their eyes.

Without touching the body, Squad 1 hurried back to the kingdom with a fin.

This decision turned out to be correct.

But not all fighters were able to pick the right answer.
