Chapter 336

Thanks to Kurogane and Mashiro’s work, we safely recovered the fish.

… I have to think of a gentler way of fishing for the next time.I collected the fish while thinking such.

「Mashiro… this ice, can you melt it?」

Although the size is not a problem for my Inventory, I would like to excuse myself from shattering ice when wanting to use the fish. Moreover, it’s possible that the fish would break into pieces together with the ice.

『Un, okay~』

When Mashiro touched the lump of ice, Bam it turned into water and the fish fell to the ground.I quickly put the frozen fish into my Inventory.When Mashiro and Kurogane changed to their human forms and started to help me, the three guardians who stared in a trance pulled themselves together and begin helping with the collection of fish.Today, there were Striped Jacks, Tilefish, Striped Beakfish, Flounders, and Amberjacks.Ufufu… Striped Jack Aji Fry and Namerou. Tilefish are good for Sashimi, but throwing Sakamushi, Nitsuke, and Shinjo away would be difficult.I will have to make Amberjack Shabu-shabu at least once.As for the small-sized fish, how about I dry them?

Ufufu… being able to think if I should make this and that is truly a bliss.

「Lord, this bristly thing resembling a chestnut was edible too, no?」

Kurogane grasped a sea urchin in his bare hands and showed it to me.Awawa! It would be dangerous if you got prickled, alright!

「Kurogane! That’s dangerous, you have to wear gloves!」「No matter. Something like this is nothing to me」

He certainly helped me pick chestnuts before, so spines are probably nothing to him… but just watching him is painful~!I took out a spade and a bag from Inventory and handed them to Kurogane and told him to pick the urchins with that, however, he returned the spade to me and gathered the urchins into the bag with a small magic whirlwind.… How dexterous.

「Cristeaa~ there’s something weird? Is this also a monster?」「Ehh!?」

Monster!? Looking at Mashiro in a panic, he was poking something at his feet with his hands.

Mashiro~! Don’t say something like that while poking the monster.I hurriedly looked at Mashiro’s feet.

「… What. That’s probably not a monster」

What was rolling at Mashiro’s feet was… a sea cucumber.

「No way, what is that? It’s not a monster even though it’s so gross?」

Tirie-san who was picking up small fish grimaced at the sea cucumber’s grotesque appearances.

「I don’t think it’s a monster. I think it’s edible… Kurogane, this is not a monster, right?」

Around here, I should consult with Kurogane’s appraisal skill after all.

「Let me see? … Lord, the appraisal says that it is indeed edible, but… we have this many fish. There’s no need to bother eating something like that」

Since Kurogane’s appraisal judged it as edible, then this is most likely really a sea cucumber.

It would be good to return home, but since Siren-kun was with us, we decided to have a lunch together at the beach.
