Chapter 262: Sea fishing by boat and the opening of the new Lieblich
The next day, it's test time. After school, I went to the supermarket to buy some groceries, came home and logged in.
The first thing I do when I log in is to get the fishing rod I ordered yesterday from Setia.
Maple Fishing Rod: Rarity 6 Fishing Rod Quality C-
Weight: 35 Durability: 65
Additional Effect: Female fish are more likely to hit.
This fishing rod is made of maple. The sweet smell of this fishing rod attracts female fish. It is made of steel thread and can be used for big fish.
It's a fishing rod with an unusual effect. It looks like a fishing rod for catching fish eggs. I think it's pretty good.
"Its a stone throw. And I'm sorry for asking so suddenly. Setia"
"It's not that bad. The fishing rod is easy enough to make, but please don't make anything else"
"Yes. I'll keep that in mind"
After that, I took Ion, Lian, Konoha, Mir and Luna to the place where we had met. Ion and Lian are always eager to go to the beach.
Since Konoha and Luna are guards and Mir is an expert fisherman, I had to take them.
Then I warped into the port town of Blumen with Shallow-san and his fishing buddies and was taken to a ship.
There was a medium-sized wooden boat there.
"Welcome to our home, the Tsunuke-maru!"
I froze at the name. And Shallow-san couldn't help but say.
"Umm...it's very painful when you freeze, but..."
"I'm sorry. It took me a while to remember what tsunuke means..."
Tsunuke is a fishing term for someone who has caught more than ten fish. So it's a good word for the name of the boat. But if you don't know anything about it, you will probably freeze.
"We thought about taking it from the Ebisu Maru or some other boat we've heard of, but we thought there might be an accident..."
Ah~there are a lot of accidents and incidents in the news when it comes to fishing boats with names I've heard. It might be inevitable that it would happen.
"How about the Shallow Ship?"
"It's not my boat and when you name your boat, Takuto, will you name it Takuto Ship?"
"No, I don't think so. Sorry"
"That's all right. I know you were joking. I'll show you around the ship"
You're very mature, Shallow-san. I feel that the correspondence is familiar.
There are a number of rooms on the ship and it looks like it can be used as a home. Of course, you can log out, but unlike a home, if you are attacked by a monster, your room will be destroyed.
However, according to Shallow-san, you will receive an info warning before entering the area where monsters attack.
He also said that if you log out of the game without dropping anchor at sea, you may be swept away and that you may get seasick because the game even reproduces the rocking of a ship. I heard that one person actually fell ill.
As I walked out onto the deck, I saw another visitor. I recognized the man. I remembered it because it was an unusual name.
"You're Saba Can-san...right?"
"I was surprised that you remembered me. It's been a while"
He was a member of the verification team that I had heard a lot about at the social gathering in Fast Town.
"Are you here to verify the ship?"
"Well, I guess so. I was appointed because my name is Saba Can. Well, I've got some fishing skills, so I'll be counting on you today"
"It's nice to meet you, too"
After the greetings, the mast was finally opened and the boat set sail.
By the way, the rudder is used to steer the boat, but the mast is controlled by the screen. As it takes a lot of people and skills to operate the mast.
Even so, there were still reefs and it was difficult to keep one's eyes open. I asked one of Shallow-san's party members a question.
"When you're fishing from a boat, do you prefer horse mackerel or mackerel?"
"You know it well. Yesterday we caught horse mackerel, chub mackerel, octopus, squid and according to the NPCs, bonito, striped horse mackerel and greater amberjack are very rare"
Seriously!? Striped horse mackerel and greater amberjack are famous for their high quality! Bonito can also be used for bonito tataki and dried bonito flakes. I want this!
But then our ace had an accident. Mir is holding her head.
"Are you okay? Mir?
"I, I'm fine...just a little headache"
That's not okay. It's the first sign of seasickness.
"I'm afraid you're not joining us, Mir"
"Wa, Wait a minute! I can do it!"
"No. It's going to get worse and you won't be able to fish after all. I know it's been a long time since you've fished and I know you're looking forward to it, but you have to give up today"
"...I understand"
I put Mir back in the summoning stone. It is not possible to expose the public to the appearance of Mir returning to the stone. This is also for Mir's sake.
After that, we arrived at the point and fished together.
An hour later...
While the professional fishermen were catching fish one after another, there were two fishermen who couldn't catch anything. It was me and Saba Can-san.
"...I can't catch anything"
"...The professional fishermen seem to be having fun. Well, if there wasn't such a difference, there would be no reason for fishermen to exist, so it can't be helped"
It's true, there's a problem if the fisherman can't catch fish. Then Saba Can-san asks me.
"You're not participating in tomorrow's battle, right, Takuto-san?"
"Yes. Because I'm in despena. Are you going to participate, Saba Can-san?"
"It's impossible for a verification team member to participate in a battle. Most of the time, the verification team is supposed to verify things and find new things"
That's tough.
"Well, we don't want to be told what to do by the strategy team and we want to make something great to show them off. And this game has the potential to do that"
I see...I could kind of read the story.
"Will you let me continue this conversation tomorrow at Takuto-san's home? I'd like to proceed with my plan in secret"
"Okay. I'm available from 16:00 to 24:00 tomorrow"
"Thank you very much. I'll be there at 21:00 with a trusted colleague"
But there's something that's bothering me.
"You know where our home is, don't you?"
"We're a verification team. Just so you know, the verification team doesn't disclose such things, so don't worry"
It wasn't an explanation, but for some reason it was very convincing. I was grateful that he would keep quiet, but I had a feeling he would find out soon enough.
After that, the result of fishing was octopus for me and horse mackerel for Saba Can-san.
"...You can catch octopus with paste bait, right?"
"It's just a game...what do you think about the fact that I'm a canned mackerel and you get horse mackerel?"
"Because it's a game...there are times when that happens."
When we were in a delicate situation, Shallow-san asked us to cook for him in exchange for the fish we had caught.
A freshly caught fish dish...what could be better?
So I began to cut up the fish and make sashimi. He said we could eat it too, but I didn't want to give it away for free, so I brought out some fish sauce and wasabi.
This is it! This is what we've been waiting for!
After all, sashimi should be served with wasabi and soy sauce, right? After that, I had a business talk with Shallow-san and the others about the fish we had caught, wasabi and fish sauce.
I had plenty of wasabi and the fish sauce was easy to make. I got some horse mackerel and chub mackerel and had them sent to Freetia.
When I got back to Liebling, I logged out, finished my supper and opened the new Lieblich.
As I expected, it was crowded on the first day of opening. In the kitchen, I and Wako take the lead in cooking, while Ion cooks fish, Setia makes salads and Koihi cooks meat.
The waitresses on the first floor are Lily, Regin and Ribina, who are all familiar with the restaurant. On the second floor are Ix, Mir and Iyuki. The third floor is occupied by Bran, the unfamiliar Heliya and the surprisingly shy Nowa and Sephone. Lian and Luna were in charge of the rooftop.
This trial store turned out to be a surprising one. First of all, the tavern on the first floor had an overwhelmingly male clientele. Moreover, many of them were combat veterans.
On the other hand, the second floor had more female customers and the private rooms were used by groups of production workers. The rooftop was used by a variety of people, perhaps because it was unusual.
The rooftop was unexpectedly crowded, so Ion had to step in to help.
In case you were wondering, Kiki is living in Liebling, so she can't participate in the event in Lieblich.
The new Lieblich's ended up being very prosperous. That's when I realized something important. I didn't study for the test...well, there are days like this. I decided to log out and go to bed.
