"Here, pine juice."
Offer the juice you bought to Alte, who is sitting under the parasol.
However, Arte, who was defeated by the water earlier, slipped away from his face as if he was still stubborn.
Even though you look young, you'll look younger if you do that.What a surprise.
When I say it, I won't say it because it is likely that I won't be able to speak at last.
Nevertheless, I'm afraid you won't be able to hydrate me like this.
"Even in the cool ocean, I'm sweating.If you don't hydrate well, you'll collapse. "
"... I'll take it."
Seriously about the importance of hydration, she managed to receive the juice.
I guess I was thirsty after all.Alte drinks juice.
"This juice is delicious!"
"These refreshing drinks are delicious after entering the sea."
I really prefer carbonated drinks such as cola and cider, but unfortunately they don't exist.
However, the refreshing fruit juice was never bad.
The sweetness and acidity of the pineapple are just right and pleasant.It seems to be replenishing elements lost from the body.
Alte is totally obsessed with pine juice and drinks it like a little bite.
It seems that the previous mood has completely blown up.
Alte, come on.
Sip pine juice while you two cool under a parasol.
It's time for peace.
In any case, it's a pretty dating situation to play at sea with the opposite sex.
However, the child next door may be an adult, but I don't feel that way because of a slightly suspicious girl.Feels like a parent taking Nina to play.
Recently, I was often confused with girls' hobbies, but I was relieved that I didn't feel that way at all.
With that in mind, I saw a ship approaching from afar.
It's a big sailboat with two masts.
"It's a big ship in there."
I've been to Pedrick many times, but I've never seen such a big ship.
It could be a ship transporting supplies to a distant country.
Compared to previous ships, shapes and shades are not smart, but there is a different beauty to what is created by combining wood.
I wonder if that ship's endless piles of voyages are a sign of the age of the ship's dullness.
"Is there something big floating behind the ship?"
"Hmm? Really? What is that?"
Alte told me to look behind the ship and something huge red and brown was floating.
It seems to be connected to something like an iron thread and transported by ship.
What kind of creature is this?
"You guys are lucky. That's Kraken."
The two of them were tilting their necks, and the man nearby said so.
Kraken?
"A monster who lives in the sea.It looks a little gross, but it tastes pretty good when eaten.Probably going to flow a lot to the market from now on.If you want to eat it, you'd better pull it up. "
Men burst into laughter and leave the beach.
I think we're going to the market to eat Kraken.
As I looked around, I saw those who were aware of it pulling up.
Speaking of Kraken, it's probably a giant squid that's common in creations.
If so, I am satisfied that it is said to be delicious. This is a great opportunity.
I want to see Clarken and try it if possible.
Alte, let's get dressed and go to the market.
"Hmm! I don't know what kind of monster Clarken and I are interested in!"
We drank the juice and quickly returned to the swimsuit shop.
●
After changing from swimsuit to personal clothes, we came to the market from the beach.
By the time we arrived, Kraken had just been pulled out of port.
Looking at the raised Kraken, there are a lot of people in the market.
"Hmm, why is that creepy, creepy creature... ah, is that Kraken?"
Alte looks at Kraken floating in front of her with a dazed expression.
Just before my eyes, Kraken is being transported by a magical psychic with no attributes.
It must be quite difficult to float a monster that weighs tens of tons.Twenty or more wizards use psychics to carry them carefully.
A giant squid with a red and brown body surface.Including the tentacle arm, it seems to be more than 40 meters long.
The hue of the body's surface has changed slightly, whether it's still subtly alive or not, and several legs are moving slowly.
Big eyeballs were bigger than our faces, and our eyes were looking palely at our surroundings so that they wouldn't feel the presence of emotion.
"Wow, that's huge."
"Is there such a terrible monster in the ocean?"
A voice mixed with exclamation and fear echoes.
It seems that resistance is already impossible, but just looking at it made me feel the overwhelming strength of my presence.
It's pretty scary to think that this is going to come at us in the ocean.
Well, if it's this big, you won't encounter it unless you go far enough, but you can still sweat cold just imagining it.
Eventually, Kraken will be lowered to the center of the market and ready to dismantle.
"... Crete, are you sure you want to eat that?"
"Yeah, I'd like to try it."
When he nodded, Arte looked at something incredible.
"I'm not sure I can eat straw."
"Well, there's one thing I like about food.You don't have to. "
Uh-huh.
I'm used to eating squid, including my predecessors.
Even if Alte, who has never eaten squid, avoids it, nothing is wrong.
If I hadn't known what I had eaten and how delicious it was, I would have definitely reacted the same way.
"It looks like the demolition is about to begin, but what do we do?"
It's not as glossy as dismantling meat, but it has a different impact.
I don't care, but I'm unfamiliar with Alte. It might be a tough sight.
"... I'll take a look at it. It's not a good time."
"Okay, tell me as soon as it gets tough."
I saw Arte nodding, and I watched Kraken dismantle.
●
When Kraken's demolition is complete, they are cut small and sold to the market.
I was successful in buying one of them. [M]
There were a lot of people in the market listening to Kraken's capture, but it didn't seem like it would run out that fast.
That said, it was thanks to the man who taught me on the beach that I could easily secure this.Otherwise, they would still be lined up in the line of serpents.
This is Kraken!
The ice box contains fillets of Kraken's legs and torso.
The epidermis settled to red and brown because of the death, and the body part was beautiful and pure white.
It seems very fresh and delicious.
"I'm hungry. I want to have lunch."
Well then, let's buy some other ingredients.Buying market ingredients makes it cheaper to use the bakery outside. "
You can instantly bake and eat what you buy at the Pedrick market.
In other words, you can enjoy seafood barbecues with ease.
"That's good! Let's get lunch!"
Explaining this, Alte brightens her eyes and looks at the surrounding seafood ingredients.
As expected, there is only a harbor town here with a lot of seafood ingredients.
Because there are no refrigeration or transportation costs, the price is also significantly cheaper than what is sold in King's City.Besides, it's fresh.
If you came to Pedrick, it would be a loss if you didn't eat seafood ingredients.
I have it stored in subspace, so I can eat fresh seafood wherever I am, but it is also important to have air in the field.
There is an atmosphere of eating in the port town.
"What should I eat?"
"What's Alte's favorite seafood ingredient?"
"Strawberries love shrimp!"
"Fine, I like it too.Let's buy shrimp now. "
When I walked through the market with a purpose in mind, I saw something shrimpy in a basket with seawater.
"Oh, there it is. But it's pretty dark."
"It's not true. It looks like the color of Crete's hair."
Most shrimps are a little brighter even before they heat up, but this shrimp was really black.
I'm a little worried that it's too dark to really eat.
"It's a Crimson shrimp. They have a dark black crust, but when cooked, they are dyed in beautiful red.Of course, the taste is first-class. "
I see. How big is it? "
The size is just about the size of a shrimp.I also admire large shrimps like Ise shrimp, but I want to eat various ingredients, and I think this is just about right.
Hmm! Owner, let's get four of these!
"... Miss, don't you have a little more money?"
"Hmm? Is this bad?"
"I'm not saying no."
Arte often handed over white gold, but the owner was confused.
Even though it's about two silver coins, it wouldn't be a hassle to return the change if they gave me white gold coins.
Alte is tilting her head because she doesn't understand how the shopkeeper feels.
I might be able to give you a jewel just to see if the money isn't good as it is.
After all, this kid has a slightly misplaced sense of money.
"I'll pay the money together, so Alte can pick another ingredient."
"Oh, is that so? Then I'll pay you here."
In my words, Alte was choosing other ingredients.
