Legend

"Hmm... I think it's time to see Fishing Village or Harbor Street or something like that"

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

To Ray's words, Seto sounds happy.

Since yesterday...... I have been in such a good mood since the level of water polo was increased by Guztos' demonic stone to be exact.

But Ray doesn't know what it's like either.

Skills acquired by Death Size, Ceto, and Warcraft will be transformed if they reach Level 5.

In fact, the water polo that went to level five was pretty powerful compared to level four.

Specifically, level four water balloons were able to give out two 40 cm diameter water balloons to operate the orbit somewhat freely. If the power hits the rock too, the water polo explodes and the surface of the rock is powerful enough to play.

However, water balloons that have reached level five can produce four water balloons about one metre in diameter. Then the operability was clearly higher than before, and instead of the rock's surface, it was a force capable of destroying the rock's object.

(Same goes for Flying Slash, but don't be powerful all at once if the level goes to five.... Well, not without flaws)

The velocity of water polo flying itself was barely the same as it was at level four.

Of course, it's not slow enough for a stretch to occur... but still, it's not hard to avoid it just because of the speed at which you threw the ball of baseball.

(I guess it's manipulative to follow that up)

Moving through the sky thinking that way, Seto eventually finds the village far away and rings out.

The inhabitants were probably fifty or fewer small villages, but given the purpose of obtaining Ray's net, Ning Lo would have been better off.

If I could find out that there are adventurers who are partners with Griffon, it would definitely be a huge commotion.

In order not to do so, it was best not to spread the information itself.

… It is likely that the small village is awkward in terms of fishing techniques, and it is difficult to see if there are nets.

"Well, then... let's go. Expect some good fishing gear. I'd like you to at least have some."

Spears are what Ray currently uses to acquire large fish.

But that's a normal spear...... no, if you think it's a nearly broken spear, it's only a spear below normal Ning Lo.

More than that, there's no way spears can be returned, and even if a spear hits a fish's body, it falls out lightly.

So far, the spear attack had killed the fish, so it wasn't a problem, but if the spear stabbed him, he wouldn't die... or if the sea water made it like a spear stabbed him in a strange place, he could have escaped.

But if there is a return, piercing the fish will not fall out like a spear.

Of course if you imitate it like you treat it abusively, you'll even get out of a situation where you pierce the fish...... the area will depend on Ray's arm.

(I also want it to look like a fish version of a bug net that attracts fish caught in fish fishing. Seto's water polo has become quite powerful, so a fish swimming in a relatively shallow part of the ocean can stun it with shock)

That's also what Ray and Seto used to do in the river, a simplified version of the fishing called tapping a rock and stunning a fish due to its impact...

I haven't actually tried it yet, but still, I'm sure it will succeed, and yes Ray thinks so.

While I was thinking about that, the village approached me and eventually Seto landed a little further from the village.

Ray leaves Seto on the spot and heads to the village.

Usually, it wasn't weird that Seto wasted time wanting to go with Ray, but this time he wasn't going to stay in the village, he was only going to give up his fishing gear.

Later, if I had enough fish, would I buy enough?

That's why Seto agreed to wait very long in the village.

... although it definitely also affects that I have been with Ray for a long time here and play at sea.

(It's getting a lot bigger, but Seto's sweet habits still haven't healed. No, I hope I'm happy too)

Though thinking that way, Ray moves toward the village wary of what's going on around him.

That way, before I even get down from Seto enough, I eventually see the village.

The fact that Ray was able to see the village naturally made it possible to see Ray from the village as well.

However, what was also completely unexpected for Ray was that many people had gathered at the entrance to the village as Ray approached.

That, too, the villagers had objects in their hands, such as wooden sticks, farm tools… and apparently appeared to be wary of Ray.

(Well, it's a typical country village. Isn't it strange if it's closable)

With that in mind, there's nothing like Ray stopping his leg.

With no appearance of upset at all, Ray approaches the village.

It was the villagers who were upset to see Ray like that.

Naturally. Because even though more than ten people are waiting with their weapons, Ray walks in without showing any fright.

But if we can make sure Ray looks closer, eventually the villagers who were murdering will calm down.

Ray is never tall, let alone muscular enough to see.

Besides, I don't even look like I have any weapons in relation to the fact that my baggage is basically stored in mystering.

Most importantly, Ray is wearing a dragon robe, so it wasn't surprising to think he was hiding some kind of weapon underneath it.

Either way, given Ray's appearance, he didn't look like the kind of person who could do harm to the village.

When it turns out that, the villagers, who were alert with their weapons in their hands, also finally break the tension.

(No, it's good that you're relieving the tension, but I'm a little unconvinced to just look at my appearance. Besides... what are you going to do if I'm actually some kind of bandit or some sort of reconnaissance officer? Are you too careless about anything?

Think so, but it's definitely profitable for Ray, so keep walking without imitating anything to say here for now.

That's how we finally get closer to the village...... Eventually, one man in his twenties or so from inside the village approaches Ray.

"What brings you to this village?

I know you saw Ray and decided he wasn't the enemy for now, but he still has some vigilance in his tone.

"Before I do, I'll ask you, this is a fishing village, right?

"... Huh? Oh, oh. Well, yeah."

The man nods as bewildered by the words out of Ray's mouth.

As you can see, the man who wanted to say so, his vigilance against Ray had already disappeared completely.

Around here, Ray's appearance would have played a role.

"Right, good.... Actually, I've been catching fish a little far from here and playing in the ocean, but when I get a small fish, it's a little hard without a net. If this is a fishing village, I'd like you to sell me a net or something to use for fishing."

"... ah? Huh?"

I don't know what Ray told me, a guy like that.

But I guess that's natural, too.

At a time when people like Ray are fishing outside the village and playing at sea, it's dangerous in many ways.

There are quite a few monsters around here, and a lot of wildlife. And most importantly... now, some of them are more dangerous.

"'Cause you're stupid or you are! If someone like you walks around here alone, let alone wild boarding, they'll definitely find you!

Listen to Ray and scream like the man who returned to me panicked.

That's pissing off Ray...... yelling voice that should be called worried and angry to be exact.

If anyone on this occasion could only spot the strength of Ray, they would have found that a man's concern meant little.

But the countryside in the countryside like this... that's the kind of village that deserves to be called a periphery in a different way than Gilm, there can't be anyone with that much arm.

Because for the inhabitants of this village, Ray only appears to exist on the outside streets.

(Should I have brought Seto?

I would have thought so for a moment Ray, but if you'd brought Seto on this occasion, that would have been the bigger commotion I'm pretty sure.

Yes, for example, as if all the inhabitants of this village were dying to come and challenge the battle.

Normally, I don't think so, but earlier... when I first saw Ray, Ray can't deny that concern just because Ray sees each of the villagers gathering in his hands what is likely to be a weapon.

Thinking about it, it was still no mistake to leave Ceto, he said. With that in mind, Ray opens his mouth.

"I don't know who those people are... but don't worry. I look like a Rank B Adventurer."

"Don't lie to me."

There is no momentary hesitation or anything, and Ray is taken aback by the man who immediately affirmed that it was a lie that Ray was a Rank B Adventurer.

I'm used to being insulted from my appearance.

But still, I didn't know they'd tell me it was an instant lie so far.

"No, because it's true. Look, this."

Show the man the guild card you took out of the mistering, but the man just tilts his neck when he sees that guild card.

In the first place, there's nothing particularly responsive about seeing you take your guild card out of Mystering.

I don't suppose you know anything about an item box.

"Hmm... even if they say so. Is that what guild cards were for? Four years ago, the adventurer showed you that? Five years? That was about it and... hey, someone! Who can tell guild cards!?

That's what I call the villagers at a remote location, but few adventurers come to such a remote village in the first place.

Anyway, even the merchants come every few years, like whether or not they come.

Just in that situation, I'm not sure if Ray's guild card is real or not.

Still...... and some villagers come and look at Ray's guild card.

Maybe this is for sure...... and in somewhat unreliable terms, but the man earlier, who was guaranteed this is the guild card and admitted Ray as an adventurer for now, turns his gaze to see an odd presence towards Ray.

"So, that adventurer came all the way to this village asking you to sell fishing gear or something like that? Much more…"

I didn't say it until the end, but it was easy for Ray to predict that I liked the word... or maybe it was close to it.

"It would be helpful if you thought I was an adventurer around here."

If a normal adventurer asks, don't be with a guy like Ray! I would have screamed, but with raw hatred... or fortunately, there was no guild outpost in this village and Ray was the only adventurer on this occasion, so I never got such a penetration.

Ningro, many people are even convinced because they are adventurers.

"So, I just want to say that we need to have a quick business meeting... Is something wrong?

This village, at first glance, only looks like a fishing village in the ordinary countryside.

That's why it was uncomfortable from Ray's point of view to imitate that just because someone like Ray approached us, everyone would be ready for battle...

"Kind of. The other day, a pirate came and took food and stuff."

"Uh... yeah, I see"

If ever, it was a scene where bandits were said to be active, but it was the pirates who came out here.

Most likely, given the location of this village facing the sea, pirates are more normal opponents than bandits.

"I understand why you were so wary of me. But...... I'm sorry to say this, but what can you do with pirates just because of the power of this village?

……

To Ray's words, the villagers remain silent.

The villagers thought it was really hard to deal with pirates on their own.

If there were ten pirates or so, the power of this village alone would do something about it.

If you are a bandit, that is sometimes the size of a few people, but pirates tend to increase in number naturally because of the need to use ships.

That's why it's not uncommon to have more than a hundred people in some cases.

(But... for me, have you been lucky? Ships, treasures and pirates. Especially since the ship could be bought high by Dusker to build a groundship)

Think so... Ray opens his mouth with a grin.

"Aren't you going to hire me?

He smiled and asked.
