Having safely secured the ship and the sailors, I decided to leave the scene flying straight to the roof.
It's going to be a bit of a hassle if you stay here.
"Ki, you, wait a minute!
I can hear you pulling me back, but I can't hear you here.
If I stop poorly, I lose my reason to run away.
Let's get the hell out of here.
◆
"Would it be all right if you just got around here?
Running off to an unpopular place, I take out a magic bag and change my jacket in a different color than the one I'm wearing right now.
Later you'll just have to walk around the city in grandeur and rendezvous with Mr. Liliera.
You don't think I'm walking around the city in grandeur.
◆
"I was in a hurry when I thought I jumped out of nowhere."
"Cu!"
I was just scolded by her for reuniting with Mr. Liliera.
"No, I'm sorry"
This is the bad one, so I honestly apologize.
"Cuoo?"
I beat my head with pessimism when Moffmoff asked me if you were really reflecting.
I'm sorry, because I'm going to pass to Mr. Liliera more gently next time.
"If you're going to do it, do it. You wanted me to say something."
I'm so sorry.
"Phew...... well good. What was that alle earlier than that? I've never heard of a monster wielding a giant battleship like a toy."
That's just the adventurer, and Mr. Liliera seems concerned about who you are.
Because encounters with unknown beings are one of the joys of adventurers.
Well, as far as I'm concerned, I'm not even very happy because this isn't the first time I've encountered you with me.
"I think I might be Kraken."
"Kraken? Kraken is about that giant squid monster!?"
Mr. Liliera gives a surprise when she hears Kraken's name.
Kraken, that is something that cannot be removed from the story of the demons of the sea.
"Yes, we usually live quietly in the deep ocean, but occasionally when we surface at sea, it's a supermassive demon who uses its giants to eat its prey"
I heard my explanation. Mr. Liliera only mixes gokuri and spit.
"I can't believe I met the legendary demon Kraken..."
"Huh?"
Mr. Liliera says something strange.
If you go offshore with Kraken, you'll usually encounter it.
At least in my last life, Kraken was out in Zara, so much so that when fishermen threw nets, Kraken got caught Ujauja, right?
"There's nothing you can do about the latest battleship, Kraken."
Speaking of which, Kraken's toyed battleship was a touchdown, wasn't it?
But that Kraken, why did you throw the ship?
Ordinary Kraken...
"So, what do we do now? Are you going to crusade that Kraken?
"Uh, right. Shall we head to the Adventurer Guild first? You might know what that Kraken thing is."
We need to start collecting information first.
◆
That's why I came, the Adventurer Guild of the Town of Physio.
"It's kind of an unusual guild"
The Adventurer's Guild in the town of Physio took on a different shape than any we've ever been to.
What an adventurer's guild in this town with no walls and a full view from the outside.
And the center of the guild was equipped with a square counter, with four officials dealing with the adventurers from the inside of the counter.
"It's more like a store than some sort of adventurer guild, right?
Yeah, Mr. Liliera's right.
In fact, the people at the guild's point of contact also dress in a rough way compared to the officials of Wang Du and Hekiji towns.
"But, well, it looks like you're working for once, why don't you check the requisition board first?
"Right."
We're going to get back on our minds and check the requests on the request board.
"... um, that's a lot of requests to recruit someone who can use flying tools or magic as a ship's escort"
Sure, if you're a long spear, then a rabbit is no good at attacking enemies of the sea, either, a horn, a sword or an axe.
"After that, it's all about loading baggage and working around the harbor at night."
Other than that, it's similar to or stopping by requests that are recruited in other towns.
"Oh, there it is. Kraken Crusade"
I discover the requisition form that was on the most prominent part of the requisition board.
"The S-rank demon Kraken crusade, he says, pays 1,500 gold coins."
Heh, 1,500 pieces for crusade rewards alone is going to increase even more if you put in rewards for buying materials.
"Is that it? But Kraken is S-ranked?
Funny, my memory tells me Kraken's strength was at best about B-ranked demons.
I was wondering if Kraken got stronger too while I didn't know?
"Come on, it's time to stop getting involved with Germany"
And it was one tough man who talked to me.
"What about you?
"I'm a fisherman in this town. I'm Ronzen. Even so, the ship was destroyed by that bastard."
Apparently, this guy was a victim of Kraken earlier.
"Many adventurers have challenged him so far, but he couldn't win as one. You saw them, didn't you? The sight of an army battleship being treated like a toy."
Well, in a way, I was watching it in the privileged seat.
"Has Kraken lived around here that long?
I'm curious about Kraken's timing. I'll ask Mr. Ronzen.
"No, it's only recently that he showed up. He suddenly appeared and began attacking ships in the inner ocean. Because of this ship in the inner ocean, at the risk of a shoreline, we had to run the ship along the shore."
So if it's shallow water along land, Kraken can't attack it either?
But Mr. Ronzen is right, it's dangerous in shallow waters, except for small boats.
Is it because of that Kraken that the people in town were talking about?
"You didn't hire a bunch of wizards to crusade Kraken?
To Liliera's doubts, Ms. Ronzen shakes her neck sideways.
"Oh, sure, there have been such maneuvers and plans, but when Yarrow sucks, it creeps to the bottom of the ocean. He comes up again when the wound heals. Everyone will leave the ship in the meantime because it won't come out soon after you get hurt, but then the money will hang. Come on, I was in a lot of trouble."
Oh, sure enough, that makes you have to hire a ton of wizards every time Kraken shows up.
"I was hoping the military battleship would do something about it this time, but it fell short of expectations."
Mr. Ronzen drops his shoulder and sighs.
"I can't even go fishing because of him, and he's really good at business."
Looks like the people in town are in trouble, too.
"That's not what I meant. I was just hoping for that brother earlier."
"Huh?"
"What, you guys, you didn't see it? Take that battleship, Brother Sugai. Well, that was outrageous! If I had that power, I could drag him out of the ocean! I couldn't look in detail because it was from far away, but I'm pretty sure he was a young brother. Still, I wonder why he disappeared."
Uh, yeah. Right.
I'm sure you didn't want to stand out.
He was a knight, wasn't he?
"Oh, yeah, even if they do, the fishermen in town won't let the boat out because they're afraid he'll destroy it. It's not even the latest battleship."
That's all I'm saying, Mr. Ronzen just disappeared into a mess.
Maybe he was worried about us and taught us a lot?
"So, what do you say? Is there a way to beat Kraken?
Liliera asks me if I can't see Mr. Ronzen anymore.
"Yeah, it seems like it's no use getting the ship out when we're talking about him."
Yeah, because if they overthrow or destroy the ship, that's it. Besides, if you attack with magic, you'll end up in jail and get away with it.
"But there must be some good maneuver, right? Isn't that why you've been looking for a request form?
... sharp.
"Well, it's not like there's no way."
In fact, there are several patterns of ways to crusade Kraken.
The two things that matter are knocking them down with one blow and not letting them get away with it.
However, in that case, we must refrain from massive attack magic in order to secure proof of crusade.
Because if I wipe it out, you won't believe I crusaded it.
Then the only way to do this is to take your life for a weakness in the pinpoint with a single blow, or create a situation where you can't escape.
It's going to be hard considering they're big enough to toy with a battleship.
What's more, the fishermen won't be able to get the boat out this time, so it's going to be a long shot.
That's why I decided to choose a simple, old-fashioned method.
"Well, here comes the corner... Kraken exorcised, would you like to"
"You got to lose it!
Thus, we were expelled from Kraken.
◆
A few days later, when we were ready, we came to the harbor to get rid of Kraken.
"Shall we begin the Kraken exorcism?"
So I take the Kraken exorcism tool out of the magic bag.
"Whoa, what the hell?"
Fishermen and sailors who were working nearby come to see if they expressed interest in the Kraken exorcism tool.
"What, are you guys seriously going to exorcise Kraken?
and some of them looked like Mr. Ronzen I met the other day.
"Yeah, I came around the corner, so I thought I'd give it a try."
"Well, that's your freedom, but what the hell is this? A small boat tied with rope? No, but I'm not calling it a ship."
The fishermen and sailors around me nod yeah to Mr. Ronzen's doubts.
"Besides, the cutting-edge Ikari has a strange shape. Is that more of a ninja hook than a pickaxe?
Everyone looks at my boat and snaps my neck. [M]
In fact, it wasn't meant for humans to ride.
Sole is just a substitute for scraping the whole thing and making it look like a ship.
It can be done to a good extent if floated in water.
And the boat has a thick rope through it, penetrating the boat.
Further, the rope stretched from the small boat was connected to a single thick, long round too.
"Well, watch it"
When I float a boat, I activate the magic of the wind.
"Control Wind!
This is the magic that wizards on sailboats prefer to use, literally freely manipulating the wind.
It's not the kind of wind you can use to attack, but with this magic, you can move sailboats around freely even when you're at it.
It's magic you treasure when you want to hurry or when you're put on a strange tidal stream.
And with this magic, I direct a small ship to the place where an army battleship was attacked by Kraken the other day.
It was only a short time before the boat reached the desired waters.
"Huh!? I'm out!
As the fisherman put it, suddenly I wondered if the small boat swayed with gras, lifted into the air by the tentacles that emerged from the sea.
"All right!"
The touch arm wraps around the boat, making the sound of a mistletoe and causing the boat to shake.
And as it was, the boat was dragged into the sea.
I made sure of that. I left it on the side. Hold the end of the round.
And shortly after, the rope that was connected to Marutai began to drag me to the sea.
"All right, all right! Sounds good."
I hold Marutai with certainty that the operation is going well.
And when the rope sinks completely into the sea, the connected marutai is pulled into the sea.
"Oh my God!
Fight the power of trying to drag Marutai into the sea with physical strengthening magic.
"Oh, that brother, what the hell are you doing!?"
I don't know the situation and the sailors around me are confused.
What I was about to do, it was Kraken's main fishing trip.
Marutai is the rod, the rope is the fishing line, the boat is the float and the bamboo, and Ikari is the super big fish by the giant Marutai rod of the fishing needle.
"No, no, no!
Pull the power to pull into the bottom of the ocean, and I pull the round rod the other way.
Normal fishing cares about the fishing line, but this rope is one I've magically enhanced.
I won't be able to tear you apart with your demons.
And tired of moving around, Kraken's power weakened for a moment.
"Right here. Ah!
I felt an instant chance and pulled up the whole pole as I wanted.
"" "So, I'm out!!" "
A hoisted Kraken dances the universe and the sailors raise their voices.
The figure was just a giant squid.
"What, Yabeye!?"
Mr. Ronzen gives a mixed voice of surprise and impatience.
Because Kraken's giant came this way as he danced through the universe.
Well, you hoisted it. You naturally come this way.
"Everybody back off!
When I throw away my fishing rod, I prepare for interception.
If it stays like this, the healthy Kraken will land in the harbor.
"Eat it! Hydro Zamber!
Magic activation causes water to rise from the sea level.
It was just a line from us, but if anyone had seen it from the side, they would have seen the sight of the great sword of water cutting Kraken apart.
Hydro-Zamber, the magic that unleashes an extremely thin, ultra-high pressure water sword utilizing water pressure.
Kraken, cut in two straight from the middle, splits left and right and slips into the harbor.
I knocked him out, but if he lands in the harbor like this, this will be catastrophic, so I'll do more processing.
Cut your guts with a sword strike wave and separate them from your body on the verge of Kraken landing.
And when you're done retrieving your guts with the magic bag, take out the two long spears and stab them into Kraken's body as he runs through the harbor to stop the movement, separating the gesso from the torso.
At the end of the day, if you cut yourself and Geso to a moderate size and let them store it in a magic bag, it's over.
All you have to do is collect the whole pole and wash the harbor ground with water magic and one thing settles down.
"Yes, Kraken has been exorcised. Why don't you go back to your guild and assess it?"
I turn back to Liliera, who was touring behind me. [M]
She looked at me with a pocan face, but for some reason she sighed bitterly.
"... I thought I could do something about it, but this time I solved it with a hell of a lot of force."
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Besides, if you're going to crusade Kraken, it's basically fishing for a bottle of fish that uses a pin.
"Cu!"
The moff-moff that jumped out of Liliera's arm clumps around my leg.
"Moffmoff?... That's what I'm talking about."
Seeing what Moffmoff wants, I take Kraken's body out of the magic bag and give it to him.
"Cu!"
If I could just get a feed, I wouldn't know later! All the while, Moffmoff begins to eat obsessively after pulling Kraken away from me.
Damn, he's a cash guy.
"Do you want to go back then"
"Yes."
"Well, gentlemen, I'm sorry to bother you."
We passed among the sailors, who remained silent and solidified, and walked out toward the Alliance.
"" "" "..." "I caught Kraken ah!?" ""
Hmm? It's kind of noisy back there.
