Hikaru and the others left the room about Deena, with three suspicious masks & hoods walking aboard, one soldier looking intrigued, one abominably, and one soldier bewildered.

Kow was wrapped around Lavia's neck, by the way.

Confirm accessible passages, emergency evacuation routes. The private rooms of the soldiers, of course, are not meant to be able to visit the power rooms and bridges, there is no point in seeing the warehouse, there is no store, and the tour ends in no time because the dina of the guide only talks about the minimum that is required.

Hikaru and the others came to the deck.

"Oh, don't go over the railing! Because there are so many weapons!

I listen to Deena's attention and walk away half listening.

Sea as far as I can see, white clouds.

It was nothing but a blue, monochromatic world, other than other ships that were side-by-side at a certain distance.

"... you've never been on a ship like that before"

I've been on a plane, I've been on the Shinkansen, but I've never had a boat that I ride while staying.

"I'm gonna get tired of this."

Both Lavia and Paula are taking a walk around the deck. Especially when Lavia tries to glance at the cloth-covered machine and says, "Wow, stop it!," Deena exclaims.

As Hikaru proceeded to hang out, there were about three soldiers dripping fishing lines at the corner of the deck.

One stared enthusiastically at the fishing rod, one blurred with a cheek wand on the railing, and one had already fallen asleep.

(Reel on that fishing rod...... sounds like a lot of technology going on)

Hikaru wasn't familiar with fishing so I wasn't sure, but the fishermen I've seen so far - mostly river fishermen - I remember them using primitive fishing rods that just tied threads to the rods.

Oh, and have you seen me use a reel that wraps fishing lines once or twice? That's about it.

(The sea off the coast is much deeper, so can't you catch it without a long fishing line?)

Somehow Hikaru activates "Magic Detection" towards the ocean --.

!?

I'm here. I'm so here. A large group is finally moving. Oh, why haven't you caught it when you have so many fish? So much so that I think.

"Well, the height of the fishing needle and the bait is different. —— Hey, you guys. You're probably fishing in a different place. Try dropping it about 30 meters deep."

!?

Soldiers who were shouted and surprised, and were even more surprised because that was the masked boy, two of whom were a little, one of whom remained asleep.

But I don't seem to understand the language. Hikaru looks for Deena but is nowhere to be seen.

"I can't help it. —— Lend me."

When Hikaru gets his hands on it, he is forced to receive a fishing rod from a soldier who understands the intent but is still confused. When I rolled the reel, they were fishing a lot up there.

When you make sure the feed is on, Hikaru drops the feed up to 30 meters -- and

"Whoa, I pulled it!

"Uh-huh!? What the fuck? This guy!

"Can you fish here?

"ZZZ"

I can't catch it! You've never caught anyone before!

"Oh, yeah."

"ZZZ"

"Hey, can you help me out? - Uh-oh!?"

Gyun, and Hikaru's fishing rod becomes. All of a sudden it got heavy.

"Ha!? What is this, heavy!

"Idiot, stand up on the fishing pole!

'We can hang up!

"ZZZ"

Pulling up as I said Warr, a certain cuttlefish appeared on the sea surface for about 5 kilometers. One of them stabbed the cuttlefish with a dash and succeeded in pulling it up.

There was another fish in the mouth of the cuttlefish, and the cuttlefish ate it first.

"Ooh... I've never caught a fish before. Interesting, this."

You're amazing! Screw it!

"Ahhh no... I ran and majibate"

"ZZZ"

It was when we were talking about that.

"Well... I guess discipline is loose when you get along with enemies during a break."

Duinkler appeared with five soldiers.

Yabe, the soldiers flee, saying something like that. The guy who slept also jumped up and ran out when he felt bad about being a skipper habitual offender. By the way, this cuttlefish broth will be transported to the kitchen and served for dinner this day.

"For the first time, I'll see you. Me, Duinkler"

He seemed to speak the same language as Hikaru and the others, albeit with one word.

"Oh. I look like silver (Silver Face). Well, nice to meet you."

I recognize one of the guys that Duinkler takes because he's the one who used to go after Deena when Hikaru snuck in, but he won't know anything about Hikaru over there.

"Would you like some tea? Interpreter, Nashi, Nashi"

A little fat man is smiling. It is a nagging Max. I'm pretty sure this guy was in a hostile relationship with Grussell because he was running after Deena with his men in the first place.

"You're dangerous, I know. Alone."

I guess we'll talk one-on-one.

Hikaru thought for a second, but thought he wouldn't mind. Either way, the voyage is still going on.

"Okay. Let's go."

The soul board of the man who named him Duinkler doesn't stand out in anything compared to the others. Excellent in martial arts, high ranking in soul. But he said he was "in charge" of this warship, and the attitude around him seemed to snag at him.

When I told the Lavias I was going to talk to Duinkler, Deena changed her complexion.

"I'll be there, too"

'Cause it's an offer to talk one-on-one.'

"But I'm an interpreter!

I tried to eat it down, but she also had to back off with a word from Duinkler.

"Deena. This is the story here. It won't matter to you. '

…………

He looks sorry, like he's been hit. Hikaru thought that Grusel and Duinkler must still be hostile factions.

It was probably Duinkler's private room that was taken. Although smaller than rooms, the construction of coats, hats, and desks hung on walls is a luxury category.

As I said beforehand, there are only Hikaru and Duinkler here. For this reason, Duinkler was brewing his own tea.

"Heh."

The tea served was similar to brooch tea and aromatic.

"Nice tea."

"I get it, do you?

"The aroma is rich and the taste is deep. Apparently, even if the continents are different, their tongues are the same."

Duinkler nodded satisfactorily at Hikaru's words.

I talked a little bit and found out about Hikaru, but he doesn't speak this language that well, but it doesn't seem to be a problem to ask.

"Do you have any business calling me (...) on purpose?

"--You 're on alert."

"We're going into enemy territory with this kind of number of people. There will be a hundred or two on the lookout."

"You, destroy the warship alone"

With all that force, you wouldn't have anything to fear, would you? That seems to mean something.

"What would you do if you broke a ship and fell into the sea? I don't know if it'll work for this giant monster in the ocean."

"Oh. That's right. Monsters, you won't be able to defeat them."

"Can you take them down?

"No. Our route, no monsters"

Hikaru was surprised by Duinkler, who lightly rose his secret. Duinkler deepens his grin.

"Honestly, talk, important things"

Are you trying to tell me that you don't intend to hide anything?

"So you guys discovered a route where sea monsters don't appear? The route will be quite far away, so it will take days to reach the Grand Dream Continent."

"By and large, yes. There are monsters on our route too. I just can get out of here."

"Get out of the way... with some kind of demonic prop?

"Yes."

"You're not a cannon."

"Cannon -- oh, blast cannon?

"It's a barrel that fires shells with gunpowder."

"Yes, blast cannon. I don't use blast cannons. It doesn't work."

Instead of knocking down sea habitat monsters, he said he found a way to keep them away.

When asked in detail, they were able to create magic props that kept certain monsters away, and they said they had found a route where only that particular monster appeared.

"Back to the first question, what is the purpose of this meeting?

"Exchange of information first. There's so much I want to know."

"... that's the same thing here"

"Then interests, the same. Let's talk."

"What other purpose? You said 'first', didn't you?

Duinkler was in a good mood at first.

"After the exchange of information, I thought we could trust each other. Talk then. I like that."
