Shinka no Mi

"Ah, Seiichi! Come here, come here!

"Oh, I'm coming!

I looked at the ocean, and Saria called me, and I went to the ocean.

Well, you can't help but think about things from the past and things you don't know! Now let's have some fun.

"Now, hurry up!

I ran into the ocean and jumped in!

"Buhee!?"

But I didn't jump into the ocean, and somehow I stuck my head in the beach.

"Peep... ah, that? Isn't it the sea yet?"

Shit, that's embarrassing.

You're going to dive into the ocean as hard as you can, but you're going to stick your face in the beach.

"Hmm... I thought I could definitely jump into the sea. Oh, no! That's it....!

Run away again and fly to the sea...

"Fubera!?"

----I can't!?

"Why!?"

I pushed my head into the beach again and raised my face vigorously.

I don't care what you think! That was definitely the place to get into the sea!

I raised my face and looked in front of me and I couldn't help but complain about my situation.

Because...

"The sea... is avoiding me...!?"

Yes, as if I was the only one with a hole in it, and the ocean was just gone. Rather, he was away from me.

"Hey... wait! Please!

As soon as I get up, I rush out towards the sea.

But at the same time, the ocean keeps moving, avoiding me.

"Why, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah? Let me swim too!?"

Whether you're chasing or chasing, the ocean avoids you. What am I talking about?

But it's true.

That way, if you take it a little seriously, you can catch up, but if you do that, the first step will almost wipe out all of this sandy beach, and I don't know what this star can stand.... what am I really talking about?

But I've told you many times, I can't help it because it's true.

Al, who watched me desperately chasing after the sea and playing with Salia nearby, looked at me half-eyed.

"... what are you doing? Seiichi"

"The sea is running away from me!

"I don't know what that means."

"I don't know either!

Why can't you let me swim when I'm at the beach!? Explain this situation to someone who is avoiding the sea in the first place!?

The brain announcement surprised me that my wish had been fulfilled.

If you are afraid of being touched by Makoto, the sea is avoided.

"What's good about being afraid of the sea?

I think nature is more awesome and great than us!?

When the ocean breaks on its own, the story of Moses, famous on Earth, comes to mind, but the contents are completely different.

Even that Moses broke the sea with some sort of divine power or something.

At least the ocean didn't break like me!

"I mean, can't I swim when I'm in the ocean!?"

What brings you here? To get dusk? Don't hang up!

As I continued my endless climax, my brain announcements tended to hesitate to speak up.

"Um... if you want to cross the ocean, should I make way?

"You don't have to open it!

What, that unconditional treatment is plentiful. I'm scared.

"I am! I just want to swim normally! I don't care if it gets wet or anything, just do it normally!

"Hah... if you say so..."

I wondered if the voice of the brain announcement had disappeared, but the sea that had avoided me gradually approached me, and I was finally able to enter the sea.

"I did it... I did it... I'm in the ocean...!

"No, seriously, what are you saying?

"I don't understand either!

I had no choice but to answer Al's sober cliché.

Well, no! Then I'll swim!

When I regained consciousness, I floated in the sea and tried to swim straight out...

……

……

Someday I was lying on my back, floating on the sea without any resistance.

Besides, they carry me in the direction I want. I don't put any effort into it.

Salia and the others stared silently at each other.

…………

"----I 'm not saying this is a swim...!

Is that so!?

"What are you surprised at!?"

It just floats everywhere you look!? Depending on who sees it, it looks like a dead body!?

When I woke up unexpectedly, I heard an intracerebral announcement again.

"But, I'm going to put a burden on you..."

"There's nothing to pay for swimming!?"

There are people in every world who move while entertained by the sea!

Besides, this is the only thing I know when I was floating, but the ocean that was floating me was able to dexterity manipulate the current and massage my whole body like a water bed while carrying it at a pleasant speed. I thought this was good!

But what I want to do is swim, not return to the dead body!

I appeal to the brain announcement from the bottom of my heart.

"If you can help me anyway, help me more normally in the form of skills or something! You're in the ocean, you adapt to the environment, and so on! Then it's okay. Come on!

"Wait, are you adapting? I wonder if even the Almighty God needs to be dust mustard...."

Who the hell are you talking about?

What is God even dust mustard!? And I'm not who you call yourself!

"After all... do you need to adapt to the environment?

"Eh, that's where I'm going to ask!?"

"Anyway, Seiichi doesn't have to adapt, and the surrounding environment will suit Seiichi...."

"Let me be human!?"

"? Of course, Seiichi is a human being.

"The deviation from the statue inside me is incredible....!

I'm not talking about humans, no matter what you think. It's already a human form, Nanica.

I just want to enjoy the sea normally! That's why I just want the ability to adapt!

It's a peaceful skill that feels like Swimming skill!

Ha, if Seiichi were to say so...

Then, the brain announcement answered while somehow not convinced that my complaint had been made.

You have acquired the skill Aquatic .

Don't swim! I live here!

It's a huge difference just because one letter is different!?

I'm not going to live underwater!

Why don't you give me a normal swimming skill!?

Anyway, it's far from humans!?

The announcement in my brain was convincing to me as I continued my rage.

Ah! I see, this is very rude. That's true!

"Oh, you finally understand....."

Do I get Swimming skills now?

I can swim without it, but it would be different if there was a correction.

You have acquired the skill Aquatic habitat (no oxygen required)

"Why is that?!?"

You're farther away than a human! Because it's worse than before!?

This means you don't even need air in the water!? Even the fish are breathing!

Brain announcements, where do you want my body to go!?

"? Any inconveniences?

"It's only inconvenient!?"

"But... I thought this would suit Seiichi, who is a [human]..."

"That's not the 'human' I know...!

At least I don't know anybody who can breathe in the water.

Isn't that good? With this skill, Makoto will be able to fully enjoy the sea. "

"Ha!? No, hey!? At least to [swimming] skills..."

Well, have a good holiday!

"Wait, hey, hey!

Come back here! Please! Come back, come back!

No matter how much you scream, the brain announcement doesn't respond.

Salia and I are approaching.

"What's wrong? Seiichi"

"Wherever you go, it's noisy...."

"hey, hey... the world's overwhelming me, so I can live underwater..."

"What's going on in the last few minutes!?"

Al, that's what I want to ask.

However, there is no response to the brain announcement, which should be asked, and we have to accept it now.

"Fuck you, or I'll burn you! I'll swim as fast as I can. Yeah, yeah!

"Ooh!

"Well, I don't know... well, if that's all you want, let's swim together!

As Al invites me, I swim the sea between Salia and Al.

Originally catching fish in the [Forest of Endless Love], Salia is also good at swimming, swimming in the Swiss Sea.

Al has hardly ever been to the sea, and he hasn't been out much before he met us, and he hasn't had a chance to swim, but he still swims so beautifully that he doesn't have to worry.

And speaking of me...

"... Seiichi"

Yes?

"I'm not saying swim!

Isn't that right?

I was running underwater.

I may not understand the meaning, but I want you to rest assured.

I don't understand either.

However, I'm not swimming underwater, I'm free to move as much as I do on the ground.

As a result, it succeeds in running underwater just as it does on the ground.

Moreover, it literally runs underwater because it can be scaffolded by the momentum of the current without getting to the bottom of the sea.

You can swim normally, but it moves faster because you can see it.

"Oh, wow, Seiichi! Then I'll try it too!

Heh?

Then Salia, who was watching my movements, suddenly wondered if Goliath had appeared, and instead of being underwater, she started to run all over the sea.

"Dexter"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Gorillas running all over the sea, nothing but fear! And the posture is super beautiful! Which track and field player!?

Al, who was watching the sight as I did, murmured.

"... I'm the most normal of them."

"No, me too..."

That's not true.

I don't have to deny that taste... I just admired it a little bit normally...

When I was enjoying the sea with Salia and Al, I heard voices from the beach.

"... Seiichi Oniichan..."

"Hmm? Oliga-chan... what is it!?"

Turning to the voice, there was a super fine castle.

"Ah, that, when...?

"Come on... I just saw Olga and Zola playing on the beach, so I guess they made it together."

"It's huge!

Saria is right, the sand castle near Oliga-chan is no different from our height.

To see the castle nearby, Oliga went to see the girls, and Oliga's chest was lifted.

"... nh, good work."

"Wow!

"... Mfufu. But it's not just me. Thanks to your sister, Zola."

Heh?

You didn't think I'd shake the story, Zola shouted in surprise.

"... this castle, Zola, is sturdy because of oneechan's abilities."

Oh, I see!

When she glanced at Zola, she shyly turned away.

"Yes, well... lately, for some reason, things have been going well... I used to change my surroundings into stones indiscriminately, regardless of my will. But now I can freely control it by my own will. And now we can manipulate the intensity of petrification."

I don't think we're growing like that, and we're surprised.

"Zola, you did it!

"Oh, that's amazing. I know how happy it is not to be shaken by the power I've been worried about."

Zola laughed joyfully at Al's words.

So, can I help you with Zola's glasses?

The glasses were originally made to suppress Zola's abilities, but I don't need them if I can control them anymore.

That's what I heard, but Zola shakes her head quietly.

"No, because... Seiichi made this for me. With this, I was able to see people without fear and to see the outside world. That's why this is my treasure."

I see.

Yes!

I'm illuminated by a straight smile.

As for me, I just acted freely thinking that Zola's troubles would be removed, so I was so embarrassed to be thanked and told that my glasses were a treasure.

When I'm thinking about changing the subject from shyness to embarrassment, I realize that there are many things.

Speaking of which, where's René?

"Hmm? Sure you're not there?

Everyone doesn't seem to know where René is and looks around....

"----Master!

Huh?

I heard René's voice from the sea, so I turned to the voice and...

"I've got you!

"What have you got here!?"

Oh, my God, René was coming at us like Goliath was running at sea, blasting off the surface.

Besides, there are some nasty creatures above your head.

It's incredibly huge and looks like a soft organism, such as an octopus or squid, with tentacles stretching out of the body.

Too unexpected a creature, we were all paranoid, and I activated the mysterious creature's Advanced Appraisal.

[Evil God Lv: -----]

"What are you bringing?!

Evil gods! Evil gods...!

Where did they come from!? No, why!?

He's worse than the real Bahamut we took down yesterday! I don't have a level!

Rather, it's not classified as the ultimate goal of the Devil's Church!? You're lying!?

It looks like your sanity is going to decrease from looking at it, but is it okay?!

"If it weren't for my strange eyes, I'd think it was a jerk..."

"... Altoria, oneechan, it's okay. Even if I look at it, I think it's bad."

"That's right... it looks kind of horrible..."

Uh-uh-uh-uh

Salia, you really have a liver! It looks like the end of the world is coming!

Then my "comprehension of all languages" skill was activated, and the word of the evil god in front of me was heard in my head.

"...... Shite...... Koshite...... Roba...... Mace...... Roba...... Kowai...... Koshite......"

René, what did you do?

There's no shadow of evil. You're trembling with fear.

With a stunned gaze at what René had brought... or looked up, René smiled overflowing.

"What do you say, Lord! Doesn't it look delicious!?"

"Sorry, I don't have the sensibility to say this looks delicious! Why did you bring it in the first place!?"

In response to my natural question, René looked sorry.

"Well... yesterday, I caused the Lord a lot of trouble... so may I apologize... not only for what I caught, but also for everyone else..."

"René....."

We were surprised at the words that came out of René's mouth to give away food.

I wonder how effective it was last night without dinner. No, I think it's working too well.

Anyway, René seems to have brought this evil god with her yesterday's reflection.

To get us to eat.

"Rene, you...."

"Master....."

"I'm sorry, I can't eat this...!

"Really, that's so ahhhh!?"

No, René's feelings are happy, but in which world is there a person who eats evil gods!?

I can't even look like an octopus... no, I can't!

When Saria nodded at my words, René dropped her shoulders as if she knew we wouldn't eat.

"I see... you can't force me to eat it... I see. I'm responsible for eating it....."

Heh?

With his eyes on what he was saying, René opened his mouth and rode into the evil gods!

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

"Mo Mo Mo... still... as I expected... it's even raw... the salt in the sea is getting worse... I don't know..."

……

An evil god that keeps falling into René's belly.

At that time, I could hear the demon of the devil... but I couldn't hear anything. I can't hear you!

And finally, when the last tentacle fell into René's mouth, René stroked her belly with a smile.

"After all, it was as good as I expected!

"I see. That's... good, isn't it?

Yes!

In the meantime, I was honestly delighted that René had grown a little and emerged from the crisis in this city or the world.

◇ ◆ ◇

While Seiichi was enjoying herself in the port town of Suzanne, Lanze, King of the Kingdom of Wimbleburg, was being pursued for work.

"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know it was cheap and low in tax revenue last year, but I haven't heard any rumors or information about it this year. Let me submit it again or check it out."

Ha!

Soldiers instructed by Lanze receive documents and leave.

I started the next paperwork without looking at the soldier, but seeing the letters on the paperwork for a long time, I saw the color of fatigue in Lanze's eyes.

"Hmm... I'm tired of my eyes these days... even though Seiichi has extended my life and made me healthy, I'm going to break my body soon..."

Unexpectedly, he looked at the documents stacked on his desk and looked so blurry.

Then the door to Lanze's room was knocked again.

"Come in."

"Ha! Excuse me!

"You must be one of the soldiers in charge of patrolling the border, right?

"Ha! It is a great honor for Your Majesty to remember your face!

As the soldiers were right, Lanze knew not only his name, but also the face of each soldier and everything he belonged to.

So I quickly found out who the soldiers who came to the room belonged to, but I leaned my neck at the same time.

"So, what's up? Did you come all the way here... to see what happened near the border?

"Ha, actually...."

Having heard the report from the soldier, Lanze had a doubtful look on his face.

"Hmm? You see the Kaiser Empire moving near the border recently?

"Ha! Looks like we're looking for someone...."

"... I don't know why, but anyway, there's quite a distance from that country to us, and above all, I won't touch the border. And yet there are soldiers there... it certainly smells like trouble..."

So annoying, Lanze leaves her body behind the back of the chair.

"Besides... I don't want you to be so close. I am troubled by the" mountain ". What the hell's the point...?

Can I help you?

"... I see. If you're right, looking for something, it might be important to the Kaiser Empire. Call Louis."

Ha!

Once the soldiers had gone down, they came again with Louis.

"Your Majesty, I have brought Louis!

"Thank you very much. Stand back."

Ha!

As the soldiers stand down, the remaining Louis approaches Lanze.

"Your Majesty, what happened to your call?

"Actually, I think I can see the Kaiser Empire soldiers near the border on the 'Mountain'. Looks like I'm looking for something or someone, but I want you to see what's going on."

"Hah... but I'm not doing anything covert..."

"Don't worry about that. In the first place, it would be troublesome to get inside the border, and above all, it would be troublesome if a 'mountain' occurred. If you want to interrupt, you can attack. So, you take the Sword Warrior Maiden (Valkyrie) and find what the Kaiser Empire is looking for."

"Sincerely,"

When Louis lowered his head, he left.

Looking at him, Lanze sighed.

"Damn, that country doesn't do anything nasty... I want to take a bath at once."

Once again, Lanze sighed, and when she regained her temper, she moved on to her next job.
