I kept being called incompetent at home, but it seemed super competent globally
Lesson 13: Battle on the Lake
A giant frog emerged from the lake.
I couldn't say my disgust at the glare of my eyes.
Is this physiologically impossible?
The epidermis is also covered with sticky mucus, and it smells slightly raw.
"Large!! Disgusting!!"
Kurta-san has an openly disgusting look at the frog.
Sister also holds down her nose and puts a wrinkle on her forehead, wondering if she can't stand the smell.
On the other hand, Nino seemed curious.
"... cute"
Huh?
“It's nothing! What are you going to do now?"
The frog spit out water again to match Nino's shout.
Water bullets hit the lake one after the other, creating a huge wave.
Suddenly, the ship shook and water splashed on my face.
It's only a matter of time before we sink.
"Shit, you're deliberately aiming at a distance!" This can't be prevented! "
"Sister! Please approach and slash me!"
If the shake was too strong, it would be difficult to hit the target with a slashing blow.
When I asked her to do so, she stared at the frog and frowned.
... maybe you don't want your sword to get dirty by cutting off that slimy, raw, smelly body.
Seeing that I'm not trying to move, I have no choice but to switch the plan.
Joli Jibble!
A storm of cold air.
The lake immediately froze and the hull stopped shaking.
This won't sink the ship anymore.
I jump out of the boat and skate straight across the ice.
”Haaaaa!!”
The frog was confused by the sudden cold air and was unable to move.
With one breath, I slashed up from beneath his body.
Immediately, the giant was turned upside down, and the ice was broken and sinking.
Although it eventually rose, I could see that there was no light in my eyes and that I was completely out of breath.
"Phew... this is good."
After a full day of work, I went straight back to the ship.
Soon Rowga and the others will greet you with a smile.
As usual! That's a big deal!
No, it could have been anyone who could have been closer.
Usually, we don't try to freeze the lake and get close to it.
It was quick for oneesan to knock me down, though.
To put it just a bit disgustingly, Sister made herself small as if she was sorry.
Well, the sword you're using is the finest that a master craftsman has forged.
Even if it is not even a holy sword, if it is sold, it is enough to build a mansion.
I don't know if you don't want to slash that raw frog.
"...... I'll take care of the mermaids." I'll do it. "
Please, please.
"However, I can't believe that such a monster lived near the fishing grounds." Reasonably, there hasn't been much watering lately. "
The corpse of a floating frog.
Seeing that, the fisherman looked shocked.
Apparently, it's the first kind of monster even locals have seen.
"Did you come down from the mountains...?"
I'll report back to the guild later.
That's right. If this breeds, the fishermen will be in trouble.
Well, a local adventurer could do something about this.
While I was talking, the ice broke.
Once again, we will push the ship towards the cave.
In a few moments, there might be another monster that wasn't quite right.
As I approached the hole, tension naturally increased.
Eventually, something glows in the dark.
"Hey, no way...!"
"... I'm coming! It's a very strong magic power!!"
As soon as I did the magic detection, I could see that something with magic power was approaching from the depths of the cave.
This is definitely a mermaid!
I hurried to stop the ship and put my hand on the sword's handle.
Kurta and her sisters each had their own weapons.
"Oh, what should I do..."
"Embrace your head and face down! You can't see a mermaid!"
”Heeeee! I get it!!”
Following my instructions, the fisherman rounded his back and lowered his head.
... now, what is coming out of it?
As I watched the entrance of the hole, I eventually saw something like a human head.
Sarari and peach hair flow and sparkle in the sunlight.
Her skin is reminiscent of the white snow of the mountains on her curved limbs.
I can't see my face yet, but the silhouette alone is beautiful enough to make me feel chilly.
"... amazing"
Rowga-san! Steady!
I-I 'm sorry!
"Here you go! Classic, but a bitter cure against temptation!"
Nino took the black pill out of the bamboo tube.
Hurry up and put it in your mouth, and suddenly the intense bitterness will come over you.
Hey, what is this!?
It seemed like he had roasted the weeds around him and only removed the bitterness and hardened them.
It seems that it is better to call it a physical shock rather than a taste.
"Nghh...! I'll die!!"
"Nino, what is this!"
"Please bear with me, sister!" This will keep your senses calm...! "
"I see...! You're misleading me with other senses...!"
That said, what is painful is painful.
Everyone looked terrible, and the ship was no longer like hell.
Rouga and the others are holding their mouths with faces that are likely to spit something out.
But this is much better than being seduced.
If you think so, you'll hear something unexpected in our ears.
"Um! Thank you ~ ~ ~!"
Friendlier than I thought?
When we saw the mermaid waving in the weather, we couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
