Chapter 194
After resolving the ‘Dianeia swimsuit disturbance’ I succeeded in catching a number of fish .
However,
「Why are each and every one of these so sparkly………」
The ones I had fished all glittered like silver and gold . They were all fish with the luster of metal .
Certainly there were fish with scales of a silver color, but I had never seen such fish that looked like they were cast from the metal itself .
Furthermore, most of them surpassed 50 centimeters . They were huge…this was abnormal .
「This is……Silver Guard . It is a fish with scales as strong as metal . 」
Dianeia shared her insight as she continued her own fishing .
「For that reason, even if you hook it your line would break… . and if you catch it you can barely cut it…… . . the line made by Daichi-dono is really amazing… . 」
「Well, this line should be stronger than metal after all . Other than that, there seem to be quite a lot of dangerous fish around here huh?」
There were fish that could bite through nets and fish that were basically covered in metal .
Is it really ok to swim in these waters?
「Well, these type of fish usually stay deep at the bottom of the lake so there’s no issue . Plus when people are swimming there’s usually a magic defense cast so injuries are mostly avoided . 」
「Ahh, what you talked about before?」
「Yes, also Anne-dono said that our swimsuits had defensive properties as well . They’re enough to prevent skin damage . 」
「Ohh? Anne’s swimsuits have that kind of thing as well?」
I thought they were just easy to wear and nice to look at .
……… . magic is really convenient .
Anyways, since I don’t have to worry about swimming let’s relax .
「So… . is this Silver Guard edible?」
「A-ahh, as I thought you intend to eat it?」
「Well, I fished it up . Of course I will . It’s not poisonous right?」
「Umu, it’s not poisonous at all . It is supposed to taste light and delicious but… . . the scales are the issue . You can descale them, but a normal knife won’t cut it . 」
Right, it was as hard as normal metals . But,
「I’ll manage somehow . I still have some of Ramiyuros’s scales . 」
There were quite a few I had stored inside of my golems .
They were initially for maintaining and creating new lures but… .
……they could also be used to make a small knife .
If it was just at the level of a slightly hard metal, then a dragon scale knife could cut it .
「I see . Un…… . ok then . If it’s just at the level of normal metal it means nothing to you . 」
「Well it’s not really to do with me, it’s more the properties of the dragon scale . 」
Leaving that aside, it’s edible so there’s no problem .
I’d feel strangely sad if I fished up an inedible fish .
As I was thinking that…
「Guuu」
I heard a stomach grumble .
The culprit was Hesty who had been fishing next to me .
「…… . I might be, hungry, I think?」
「I told you to stop doubting if you’re hungry . But, I guess that’s right . It’s about time to stop and eat . 」
The sun was high in the sky .
…… . it was broad daylight .
No wonder she was hungry .
We’d been doing this since earlier in the morning .
As I thought that I looked at the map I’d gotten from Dianeia .
「Umm——there’s an outdoor kitchen by the cottages . Do they have an iron plate and stuff like that?」
「Yes of course . We have everything you need prepared . We have ingredients and vegetables prepared as well . 」
「Got it . Ok then, we’ll be cooking . 」
If I cooked it well then they should be tasty .
「Master~ I’ve finished my preparations~!」
Sakura met us partway .
By looking at her I could see she was wearing an apron over her swimsuit .
「Eh? Were you always on standby?」
「No no, I was swimming before, but when I saw Master catching fish I got the kitchen ready for cooking . 」
「Oh~, sorry for the trouble . 」
「Not at all, if we can make delicious food then it’s nothing at all!」
Sakura nodded with all her might .
Looks like Sakura’s more excited than usual since she was on vacation .
「Well, guess so . Let’s gather everyone and let’s get eating . 」
I said and this time Dianeia nodded .
「Well then, I’ll go call the ones playing over there . Daichi-dono and you three please go on ahead . 」
「Got it . Let’s go . 」
「n, let’s go . 」
Then Sakura, the two Dragon Kings, and I headed over to the outdoor kitchen .
We would be enjoying fresh food from the lake .
