"Uh... I don't know what to say, this.... Yes, that's all I can say. That's terrible."
To the words of Vihera, everyone...... that's what makes even Ray and Seto snort at this miserable situation.
But I guess that's natural, too. A monster the size of Seto could not escape pierced by a spear, and he was pulled so far.
Naturally, if a monster that size gave me shallow water, I could not hide my body in the sea, and my body was damaged by the rock.
Scales peel, blood flows, and flesh is visible.
With such wounds spreading throughout his body, Vihella's thoughts, which can only be described as terrible, were natural.
"Even so. There's no way to finish this guy off well in that situation, so you can't help this either.... So, is this guy a monster? Well, I predicted it."
Is it a fish or a monster... Ray didn't even know when the other guy was at sea around it, but if he could still pull it up like this, it would be clear.
"I had predictions when I flew the scale."
Think normally, it's inconceivable that a fish is like flying a scale.
No, some fish on Earth spit water sharply from their mouths and defeat insects with that water to feed them, so I reckon it's not strange that in Elgin there are fish that fly scales and prey.
"Just... naturally, you don't know this monster. Bistol. Don't you know?
Ray asked Bistol here because he knew something about a monster named Guztos.
But Bistol, who was asked, too, shakes his neck to the side, unfortunately.
"I'm sorry, but Atashi's never seen this monster before either.... this size, so I don't think it's weird to be famous."
In the first place, Bistol is also a merchant operating in the vicinity of the Guild and the border… i.e. in a place without the sea.
That's why I followed the Rays to get fish from the sea.
All I knew about Guztos was mere coincidence.
"Um, then... marina?
"I've never seen you before, either."
"Elaine?"
"Likewise, I don't know"
"Vihera?"
"It's my first time, too."
"... ask once. Bühne?"
"Mmm."
To Ray's words, Büne whines just one short word, as usual.
But only this time, Ray also understood what Bühne was trying to say.
Because Beaune was shaking his head beside him.
Seeing that, by the time it's clear, it's clear that Büne doesn't know about this monster either.
"Well, then... shall I just take the demon stone for now? Crusade Proof Site or something like that later."
No one disagrees with Ray.
If you could have figured out what kind of monster this monster is, you could have dismantled it here... but more than you can figure it out, it's also possible that the area you dismantled poorly and threw away was some material, crusade proof site, etc.
(Well, the part you can probably eat is huge.... you look like a black sea bream by your side)
I turn my gaze to the monster again, and I feel smudged.
Yes, the identity of the monster who attacked Ray and Seto was the black sea bream.
Of course, there are three meters in length, and black sea breams like flying scales and attacking are not normal black sea breams.
It's just that some of Ray's known fish resembled black sea breams, and besides their size, there were many different places in the details.
(In the first place, where you've skipped all that scales, but where scales are peeled off with your body... no well, I can't deny the possibility that scales were peeled off where they were sharpened with rocks)
Looking at the fish monster, I take out the knife to take out the demon stone for now.
Nearly half of the monster's body is still immersed in sea water, and he smells the blood flowing from it, or small fish and crabs are gathering.
I don't want to be eaten by fish and crabs as much as I can because it's a monster that knocked down corners...... but I'm even oddly convinced it's even more of a story now if I think I've hit that giant on the rock over and over before I pull the monster so far in Ceto.
(Well, if you think you can get rid of your guts and stuff, wouldn't it be bad to have fish and crabs)
Among the monsters, there are many parts of the gut that can be sold as materials, but half of them are scattered in the ocean during the period leading up to this point.
More than that, I don't think it makes sense to remove my guts from now on, and that's what I thought I'd do for now, even feed on fish and crabs.
Gather around the gut and think that there may be nothing you can eat.
"With this big fish, it would be pretty big in terms of eating well.... Ray and Seto are going to eat up lightly."
That's how the marina squeaks as she looks at the fish again.
"Gru!"
And you heard the marina, leave Seto to me! and chirped with joy.
... It should be noted that Seto is fed fish caught by the marinas and he looks quite in a good mood.
"Anyway, if you're going to take the Demon Stone, you should hurry. Look, there's quite a collection of fish and crabs..."
To Bistol's words, once again when Ray turned his gaze into the sea...... there were many fish and crabs gathering by the time they were overwhelming compared to a while ago.
No, that's not all, there's even an octopus figure inside.
"You've come a long way."
Ray hurries to take the demon stone out of the monster's body, whining as he shrugged.
Sometimes the belly part was torn on the way here, and I succeed in taking out the demon stone without any particular difficulty.
And then we kept the monster's body inside the mistering... and gazed at the net placed on a rock a little further away.
The net there...... To be precise, the fish in the net is the fish Ray caught before he was attacked by a monster.
Even as he fought the monster, Ray held it in the hands of those who did not have a death size or a wax without letting go of that net.
When I really have to use both hands, that's until I imitate things like putting them on Seto's back.
... As a result, the fish in the net was safe... but Seto's back subtly smelled like fish instead.
Most importantly, for Yellow, is Seto's back Ning and relieved, or does it stimulate his appetite... I was sitting still on Seto's back eating fish in a good mood.
"Mmm! Mmm!
Look at Seto. He was in a good mood, but the dragon robe was pulled back to me by Beaune.
"What's going on?
"Mmm!"
To Ray's words, Bühne looks into the sea... and sees where the monster existed until earlier, before offering his hand toward Ray.
I don't know what that means. Ray just tilts his neck.
We've been dating for quite a while, and we're getting to know roughly what Bühne wants to say.
But that's just roughly, not all.
As a result, Ray's gaze is directed at Vihella, the only person who fully understands what Büne is trying to say.
"Vihera, what's Büne saying?
"You want a net. It's not a net with that fish in it, it's a net for those who shudder."
That's what Ray said, he turns his gaze into the sea again.
There are big fish and octopuses there eating the monster's zero guts so they can fight ahead.
Some of them were similar to the Utzubo, where it was a kind of fish heaven… a sight that wasn't strange to repudiate.
It is not surprising that we want to exhaust ourselves with nets instead of purposefully fishing because there is such a massive collection of fish and crabs.
"Okay, here you go."
That's what I say, I give the net I took out of Mystering to Bühne.
Buune, with the net in his hand, seemed quite happy from Ray's eyes.... I guess the expression is correct because the look on Bühne's face hasn't changed as usual, so I felt an atmosphere that looked interesting...
Bühne stands with the net in his hand, on a rock.
Beune's gaze at the sea level from above the rocks is serious from the bottom of his heart.
That's not so bad as compared to the fishermen in office.
The surrounding gaze is also drawn to the serious look of Bühne...... eventually Bühne's hand with the net moves quickly.
In the nets that soaked up the sea surface that way, there were many fish... and even fish that resembled a sea urchin.
"Oh, that's not awesome, Beaune. That fish is a pretty fierce fish, and it's pretty hard to get... but it tastes pretty good, doesn't it? It seems to have a texture close to meat, not fish."
I hear meat, and not just Bühne...... but even Ceto and Yellow look at Bühne with interest.
Of course I don't hate fish, but I guess I still like meat too.
To such a ceto or a yellow gaze, Büne gives a slightly unfortunate atmosphere... softly passing a fish resembling a utubo to Ceto and the yellow.
The surface is slippery, but Bühne doesn't seem particularly hard to hold.
Is it skill as a bandit around here... or is it simply because Bühne is used to that?
That didn't even make sense to Ray, but I'm pretty sure Beaune decided to give Seto and Yellow a fish that looked like Utsubo anyway.
... I guess it was only a decision because there are still so many similar fish in the ocean.
"Gru?"
Are you sure? and Seto asks with circular eyes.
To such a ceto, Büne nods back silently.
The fish that resembles the sea urchin that was thus given to him is placed on the ground where Seto is couched… where there are countless fine stones.
The yellow, who was watching how it was on Seto's back, also stuck to the fish Seto had placed on the ground when he went down to the ground with his small wings.
That fish, which resembles a sea urchin, is not that big.
That's the only way you'll lose it as soon as you eat it with two.
(No, can you eat a full tummy of yellow anyway Seto)
Given the size of the yellow body, it really makes a difference in the size of the stomach.
While thinking that way, Ray stores the fish that was in the net in mysteries one after the other when treated like mackerel folds.
... There was no such thing as a fish attracted to the smell of normal fish blood because there were still giant black seabream-like monster guts.
It's been long enough...
"Cu! Cu! Cu! Cu!"
I heard such a voice when I finished processing all the fish and stored them in mysteries.
It is also easy for Ray to understand that that is the sound of the yellow... and turn his gaze to those who hear voices.
Then there was the same sight that we had seen in the river before: Yellow fights crabs.
However, if not...... that would be the size of the crab you are dealing with a yellow counterpart.
Compared to the Zegani, where the Yellows fought in the river before, the crabs that the Yellows are currently fighting are clearly larger.
Bigger crabs mean, naturally, that crust will also harden.
"Cu!"
It was a yellow attack against crabs, but crabs move quickly... and hide themselves in rocky gaps in order to take advantage of the benefits of the land.
If you can hide like that, you can't attack crabs that are all in a rocky gap, even though they are small.
"Cu! Cu! Cu! Cu!"
Come out! and it was a yellow with intimidating ringtones, but there's never been a way for crabs to come out of the gap.
(Unlike when it's a river, is crab a better form of not dealing with yellow?... Well, there's usually a place to think and hide, but there's no reason to fight the Yellow)
When I was a Sawagani, there were times when crabs were brave, but I guess it was a big deal that there was no place to hide.
With that in mind, Ray next shifts his gaze to Ceto.
Seto, who has eaten up fish similar to Uzbo, is lying down, not looking like he cared at all, even on the ground of pebbles and rocks rather than soft soil below.
The soft sun and the refreshing sea breeze would be a great situation for an appetite-filled ceto to take a nap.
"Now, we can't go offshore without a little more time."
"Hmm, can you help me fish a little? They're taking all the bait."
To Elaine, who tells me that, Ray nodded because she had time anyway, and Elaine and... and with Marina and Vihera, she enjoyed fishing.
