"From here, we're hosting a squid festival to celebrate Kraken's crusade!

The voice of the host, spread around by wind magic, marks the beginning of the festival, and those gathered in the harbor hail.

"With the cooperation of our shipping union and the Adventurers union, the brilliant Kraken has been defeated! Thanks also to the brave adventurers and sailors!

Everyone gathered to applaud the MC's words.

"And look! This is the pathetic look of Kraken trampling our ocean!

With the words of the MC, everyone's gaze gathers in one place in the harbor.

There was supposed to be shipping luggage and materials there, but only today it was a square with nothing.

No, there's only one giant object sitting in a big cloth.

And when the sailors waiting in the square pull the cloth, a large pile pierced obliquely on the ground represents them.

And in the middle of that pile was the unbroken figure of Kraken pierced through the middle of his body.

"Ooh! That's Kraken!

"It's big."

The people in town spoken Kraken's thoughts.

"And we are going to behave like Kraken dishes to all of you to celebrate today's happy day!

"" "" Oooh!? ""

"Can you eat Kraken?"

"Is it okay to eat demons?

When I hear Kraken cooking, the people in town speak out of agitation.

Well, I'd be on human alert for something I've never eaten.

"Nevertheless, some voices will wonder if you can really eat Kraken's meat! To answer your anxiety, Adventurer Guild Guild Leader, Mr. Ronzen, actually poisons Kraken food in front of you!

"" "" "Ooh!

With the MC's words, Mr. Ronzen appears before Kraken.

And many of the wizards who show up unleash the magic of fire on Kraken and burn the surface.

The sauce that had been painted on Kraken's surface beforehand is magically burned, and the burnt smell drifts around him.

"Oh, it smells really good."

"Oh, this looks delicious"

The people in town squeal their throats unexpectedly.

Then the cooks dismantle the deliciously cooked Kraken.

The people of the town cheer with excitement as they are torn apart with the large Kraken meat.

Well, when I do the seeding, that Kraken meat can have a pre-cut in it to make demolition easier.

A table is then set up in front of Mr. Ronzen, on which a plate with Kraken meat is placed.

"Come on, Mr. Ronzen, I'd like some Kraken meat fruit!

He nodded at the MC's voice and Mr. Ronzen hit wild with Kraken meat.

……

The people of town watch over Mr. Ronzen, who keeps chewing Kraken meat silently.

And Mr. Ronzen tells you with his face up.

"... yummy!!"

The audience gathered in the harbour cheered on Mr. Ronzen's words.

"Now I will open up Kraken's dishes more than this! If you want to eat, line up in front of the official with the other flag!

"Okay! It's a challenge to Kraken meat!

"I'm coming too!

"How dare you do as you please in our ocean, you Kraken! I'm gonna wear you delicious!

The people of town all start to line up in a line of Kraken meat.

"I wonder if this will put an end to the Kraken commotion."

We muttered the sight of everyone joyfully queuing Kraken meat as we watched from a spectacular place.

"Surely this festival is happening in other towns."

Mr. Liliera, who sits beside him, asks, eating the Kraken dishes he had prepared beforehand.

Hmm, you smell hungry.

"Guts, guts, guts."

Moffmoff seems obsessed with devouring chunks of Kraken meat, too.

Let's both focus on the festival for a little while.

"Yes, they say all Kraken will be bought up by the Adventurer Alliance of each town and offered to the people of the town as a sign that Kraken was crusaded in each town"

After crusading the Krakens, the guild leaders asked me to sell a whole Kraken to their own town.

Everything was because he wanted to show the town people, the outside merchants, and the travelers proof that he had crusaded Kraken.

If you look at the real thing, it seems that the impact of defeating Kraken will be engraved in everyone's mind, so it will be a good publicity that the voyage of the inner ocean will also be safe in the future.

Do you expect the people in town to feel safe and advertise that the Kraken problem has been solved by asking merchants and travelers to share their experiences of eating Kraken meat when they went to other towns?

Well, either way, Kraken's ingredients are mostly meat and guts, so you don't have much use for anything but edible.

The only thing that makes Kraken ink a very compatible dye when it comes to creating a magic formation of water attributes.

The guild chiefs said what a salt and spicy dish to make the liquor dish if they wondered what to do with the guts and stuff.

They offer everything to the tavern at the festival night section.

Maybe this is the kind of challenging spirit that surprisingly finds new ingredients.

"Well, thanks to you, I made a lot of money."

Anyway, as proof of defeating Kraken, they also bought a pile of Elder Plant pierced through his body.

"But as an guild, I guess it's been a pretty good expense, huh?

Ms Liliera would like to say that all Kraken's crusade rewards greatly exceeded the rewards originally envisaged by each port town.

Anyway, I knew there were more than one Kraken in every town's guild, but that number was seven beyond my expectations.

So the cost of two over-budgeted bodies was definitely a huge burden.

"But, well, when we talk about guild leaders, it looks like we can get a budget from the state."

At any rate, securing sea routes is a lifeline for the operation of a sea-facing state.

As a country, I wouldn't hate a budget for that.

In fact, the guild leaders also said that if Kraken's absence would make the sea route safer, it would be enough to get it back in less than a short distance.

"And it looks like we're going to have a squid festival every year as a memorial to crusading Kraken."

"What's that?

"It seems to make everything a new specialty of the town and a festival to be held in conjunction with each port town"

"Why are you working with other towns? If only we could do it in our own town?

There is no need for Liliera to hang herself.

It is true that the Kraken exorcism itself was a joint request by the guild chiefs of each port town, but we do not have to do it together until after that.

But that would be a town-by-town idea.

"Either that or I think this is the intention of the country. I think it's a ritual of friendship not to offend each other's territory and waters, but to share the inner ocean fairly."

Well, these stories were good in previous life.

With the defeat of a common enemy, past certainty is a pattern of trying to shed water.

We never get along with each other completely, but still surviving each other's ordeal creates quite a sense of union.

"I don't know, it's kind of dreary for a festival."

Mr. Liliera stared at the sight of the festival with a frightened face.

I'm sure her eyes will see the sight of the festival in different colors.

"Well, that's why I got extra rewards, okay?"

"Additional rewards? You didn't hear that, did you?

Yeah, well, this is because I knocked Kraken down, and he asked me to keep it a secret.

"See, at the beginning of the festival earlier, Kraken said the Adventurer Guild and the Shipping Guild cooperated to defeat him."

"Yeah, you said that."

"Ally, I was originally supposed to go out there as a meritorious man because I didn't want to stand out."

"Huh?"

For some reason, the "Huh?" I feel multiple meanings, but I wonder if it's because of you?

"I was told that the festival would not flourish without meritorious people, even though it was a festival that also meant a kind of ceremony, so I suggested that you make it a feat of the entire guild. As a matter of fact, there have been adventurers and fishermen who have been protecting the ship from Kraken, albeit temporarily, towards Kraken's exorcism."

"So, what makes that an extra reward? And I think Mr. Rex is just losing money unilaterally."

"No, that's why, as guild leader, they told me that I couldn't get this many free moves, and at least let me repay them in a different way, and a thousand pieces of gold came in for an extra reward from the guild leaders' pocket money."

"Two hundred gold coins for five. There's money everywhere.... and you're getting more and more money."

"You spent money building a house once, didn't you?

"Still pretty much extra, isn't it? That's enough to play and live."

"haha......"

Indeed, Mr. Liliera is right, I own quite a bit of money.

But as an adventurer, there's no reason for me to retire from the adventurer because I've accumulated money.

Though, it doesn't taste good to die for money that not many individuals spend.

Surely the economy will lag if you don't accumulate money and spend it.

I wish someone had said that in previous generations and told me to spend more money.

Nevertheless, it's not that I want to do anything extravagant, and I wonder if there's any meaningful way to spend the money.

"Well, come on, I'll think about the use of money."

"Don't use it too weird, okay?

It's a weird use, isn't it?

We were staring at the sight of the Squid Festival as we talked about it.

When you notice, the harbor is equipped with various stalls, which can be used for a variety of dishes made from Kraken meat.

Uh, I guess that stall is also a corner of the squid festival plan.

Back to the ground where the Kraken Festival flourished, our place had a relaxing air flow.

That was the time.

Zaburn! And a very loud noise echoed all over town.

"Hey, what the fuck!?"

"No way Kraken came out again!?"

The harbour, which was busy at the Squid Festival, is turned upset and everyone's gaze pours into the inner ocean.

"Hey, what the fuck!?"

When someone pointed to the center of the inner ocean, they saw a large and black island there that had never existed before.

"Is that it? Was there such an island in the inner ocean?

"No, I don't think so..."

I am perplexed by the black island where everyone suddenly appears.

But no, I'm not an island.

"Oh, hey, are you moving?

Yeah, I'm not an island. That's why we move.

"What is it!?"

I can't hide my surprise at the sight Mr. Liliera will try to start.

But I was surprised by something else.

"Why is he in a place like this..."

"Mr. Rex, do you know what I'm talking about?

Mr. Liliera asks me a question when she hears me whine.

"Yeah, I know"

Yeah, that's definitely him.

But the figure was too small compared to the one I knew.

"I am Kraken's natural foe Megalo Whale!

As I answered my words, a megalo whale blew the tide with an ambitious sound.

"Caah!?"

A sprayed tide of megalo whales falls into the surrounding ocean to produce a large water column.

"Megalo Whale is a giant whale demon that grows five kilometers long."

"Oh, 5km!? Is that really a creature?"

I also know what Mr. Liliera is trying to say.

I guess it's hard to believe that creatures of such bullshit size exist.

"And, uh... is that a megalo whale? looks about 100m in size, but not the same size as the story?

Yes, Liliera was right, that megalo whale was too small compared to the megalo whale I know.

I'm sure that's why...

"That's probably a newborn juvenile."

"That's the juvenile fish!? Even though it's bigger than the enchanted plant!?"

"Yeah, look at that. The fish that hit the tide that just poured are floating on the water. Megalo Whale tides are launched together, not only in seawater, but also in close proximity to the bones produced in the body. And then the sea water and bone stones launched high above the sky come down from the sky, and they hit it and they grow up eating the creatures around them that float."

Megalo Whale opens its big mouth and begins to swallow the fish that have floated with every sea water.

The sight looks like a black hole in the ocean.

"Even then, I don't eat as much Megalo Whale as I do. Because demons the size of Kraken classes are their main diet."

"Kraken's the main one."

Mr. Liliera is frightened, but this situation is rather unsavory.

"There are no Kraken-sized creatures in the inner ocean. If you stay like this, fish from all over the inner ocean will be eaten up by megalo whales!

Yes, the Megalo Whale grows up to 5 km long, and the diet to maintain its giant size will be considerable.

Without a doubt, within a few months the creatures of the Great Sea will be extinct.

"I'm sure Kraken's children fled the Megalo Whale and came to the Inner Ocean. Adult megalo whales can get clogged when they enter the inner sea."

Yeah, that's right. I can't get through that narrow sea lane with an adult megalo whale.

"So, what do you do with me?

I think a little bit of what Liliera said.

"I guess I'll talk to Mr. Ronzen first. It's not like they're asking me to crusade, and I don't think I can afford to make a purchase for the reward of crusading right now."

"Yeah, I think that's a good idea too."

Honestly, it just doesn't work good.

It's no rush to help if your life is in danger, but Megalo Whale is a whale demon, so it's safe while you're on land.

I haven't even asked for a crusade, so I don't need to crusade right now.

Instead, if you move poorly and with good intentions, you get into more and more trouble like I did in my previous life.

So this is the scene where we negotiate with the Alliance Chiefs as a business.

◆

We avoid the paths that people ruin and head to the harbor for roofing.

"Mr. Ronzen!

When we speak, Mr. Ronzen realizes this too.

"Ooh, you've come so well! Do you know anything about that?"

That's the guild leader. I started by gathering information.

"I say Megalo Whale, the demon of Kraken's natural enemy."

"Kraken's Natural Enemy!?"

I repeat the explanation I gave Mr. Lonsen to Mr. Liliera.

"... you think I was the cause of Kraken's escape?"

"Yeah, well, as long as you're on land, you don't have to worry about your life, so I was wondering if you need to panic."

Well, there's a crisis of total annihilation of seafood.

Mr. Ronzen holds his head as he looks at the megalo whale.

"That said, if you know it's going to suck like that in the future, it's too late if you don't hurry and crusade."

Sure, if you let him sit in the ocean for a very long time, now he won't be able to go out and become a threat to the inner ocean.

"I'd like to crusade, but when I become such a big guy, I'm definitely eligible for a S-rank crusade... I just applied for an additional budget with Kraken's crusade reward, but here's another S-rank reward to see if the budget goes down"

It's tough for a great guy in the guild, too.

And that was then.

"Naval Knights out! We're going to crusade that giant demon!

A familiar ship leaves the port and heads towards Megalo Whale.

"That's definitely a new army ship!?"

The sailors were safe.

"Ha ha ha! You don't have to worry about throwing a ship because you don't have tentacles! Now it's time to show us the power of the sharpest ships!

"Uh, what's going on?

Why are you suddenly heading for a crusade when no harm has been done to humans yet?

"Uh, maybe he defeated Kraken without being able to do anything, so if you don't do something about it, it's not gonna taste good."

I tried it on the most advanced battleship and I lost light.

Well, then you can't even make excuses to your boss if you don't have a handle on something.

However, even though their opponents are not Kraken, they are nevertheless giant creatures in the 100m class.

By contrast, the battleship is about 30 meters long, less than 1/3 the size, and so on.

Approaching the Megalo Whale as the Battleship unleashes its attack magic.

Megalo Whale was not responding at all to that.

"Is that working?

"I don't think it hurts or itches at that level of power attack magic because Megalo Whale has a body that's tough enough to hit the prey."

Is it for restraint, or is the magic unleashed on megalo whales all weirdly less powerful magic?

If we don't get a little more power, the attack won't come through, will it?

And the megalo whale moved.

Megalo Whale dares to hit his body toward the battleship.

Battleships rush for evasive action, but it is inevitable that they remain this way.

The wizards on board manage to circumvent the ship's needle by bending it quite forcefully with wind and water magic, but still completely inevitable, the body of a megalo whale hits the side, and the hull rocks heavily.

The hull of the warship is further shaken by the waves that occurred when the megalo whale slammed the surface of the water heavily with its tail without passing through.

And Megalo Whale dared to hit his body again toward the rear of the battleship, which was desperate to maintain its posture, as he turned a big arc.

We just can't avoid a second assault, and the battleship has been pitifully overthrown.

There's nothing really good about that ship.

Though, you just can't let it go.

I have to go rescue him.

"By the way, can you take me down?

He asks if Mr. Ronzen can crusade the Megalo Whale that defeated the warship.

"Yeah, that's still a juvenile fish, so crusading isn't that hard."

It's a little hard when adults are just the other guy, because they're just kids.

"That's right, I'm an alley and a child"

Besides, he's a bee child who hasn't been born much.

"Ah, that was it!

Mr. Ronzen raises his voice as he shrugs his head.

"The money will persuade the rest of the guild to do something about it! Can you ask me to crusade Megalo Whale!?"

"... ok. Leave it to me."

All right, that would be a reason to crusade the Megalo Whale if it's an official request!

"Well, let's just knock it down and help the overthrown battleships!

I was poking Kraken just now, pulling through the pile of Elder Plant, jumping as high as I could.

"Trees, trees flew through the sky -!?"

The surrounding audience is surprised that the pile of Elder Plant has jumped.

"Finally, aim... there!

I threw a pile of Elder Plant toward the Megalo Whale.

The aim is a hole that will eject the tide!

"Bohjee!?"

The pile pierces the megalo whale's tidal hole, and the megalo whale screams at the sudden pain.

All right, we've successfully sealed the tidal wave attack by putting a plug in the hole.

It would be tough if the sailors thrown into the sea were injured in a tidal attack.

"The sailors are nearby, so it's strictly forbidden to use lightning and ice magic."

Let's honestly decide to defeat this place with a normal attack.

I fly for the Megalo Whale with flying magic.

And pierce the surface of the water with a sword made of a mutant blade.

The torn surface blows up like a tail as it follows me traveling at high speeds.

Change course and circle back of the megalo whale.

"Sonic Sabre!"

Activate the Magic Sword of the Wind and do not fly while stabbing the sword in the epidermis of the Megalo Whale.

Mutant swords are swords that are only about 1m long, just like regular swords.

No matter how well this sword cleaves, you can't tear apart a giant megalo whale.

However, the blade of the wind generated by the magic of the Sonic Sabre simultaneously stretches its torso while maintaining the same cleavage as the sword of the mutant species and penetrates the body of the megalo whale, reaching to the sea level directly beneath it, where the blade runs from tail to forehead.

The shaken blade of wind then continues to tear the surface further up to the point, breaking the surface up to a few hundred meters away.

At the same time that the water surface, torn apart by the blade of the wind, took a few seconds to return, the body of the megalo whale uneven from the middle, and cracked in two.

"" "" "De, big demon cracked ikinari ahhh!?" ""

The spectators watching from land are a storm of confusion because they don't know what's going on.

And when the body of a broken megalo whale is beaten to the surface of the sea, the sea level waves heavily.

"Wow!?"

The screams of the sailors thrown at the surface of the sea rise.

"Oops, lifesphere!

I cast a wind rescue magic on the sailors who caught my eye.

The magical sailors drift through the water in a spherical breeze.

This magic is the magic that protects the rescuers in the wind, so it's also a boat that temporarily protects the people who were in the water crash.

"Well, then we need to help those who sank in the ocean."

Exploratory magic is used to explore the human response, and I will save the rescuers.

While doing so, a ship also came from the port town and began rescuing the sailors.

And an hour later, all the sailors were rescued safely.

"Damn, even if more and more amazing demons show up, they'll all treat you like a puppy if you hit Mr. Rex"

I can't believe Liliera said that in a frightened tone, but that's not true.

Because strong demons are really strong.

It just so happens that there are so many demons I've never met.

For the record, the newest warship was a little scratched but safe.

Um, it's sturdy.
