Chapter 31

The offshore suddenly became noisy.

“It’s out!”

“Leviathan!”

“Evacuate! Evacuate!”

“No, the opposite! Chase! Chase!”

“There is an egg there!”

Hunters and food providers were confused.

Leviathan, who hadn’t shown up since it appeared in the Chichigaga Bay the day before yesterday, suddenly appeared. Only his face was exposed from the surface of the sea, and his large mouth was opened toward the adventurers who were waiting in the bay or on the beach.

“Kishaaaaa! !!”

It emits the usual warning sound toward the hunters who are swarming.

Basically, Leviathan is a vigilant monster. Unless it’s a special situation like the day before yesterday, it doesn’t attack people.

Since it is basically a creature that lives in the deep sea or medium depth, it should rarely appear in shallow water or water surface.

Leviathan is exactly the king who lives in the royal palace under the sea.

It seems that hunters and food providers who live by dealing with monster food are also familiar with it.

Watching the movement of Leviathan, the hunters waiting on the beach board the ship as soon as they see it.

“Don’t do it !! I’m the first one!”

It was Shanak who jumped into the sea with a brave voice.

“Gyafun!!”

He pushed Pamela to the side.

“Hey! What are you doing !!”

“Oops, excuse me! … Hey! Zelet-san! Apparently, I’m the first to find the egg.”

With that said, Shanak goes into the sea with a loincloth.

As it was, he swam in the sea with tremendous momentum and went offshore.

“Are you okay, Pamela!”

I help Pamela. Fortunately, she didn’t seem to be injured, but her cheeks turned red with anger.

“What’s with that guy! It was absolutely on purpose! Zelet! I’ll definitely make him regret it.”

“In my life, no one has spoken the mysterious word ‘Gyafun’.”

“Look at that, Zelet-san!”

Leviathan, who appeared on the surface of the sea aside from Pamela, did not feel like welcoming the hunters who had flocked to him.

On the contrary, Leviathan, who falls under the S rank, has just begun to run away with his tail turned.

The offshore people are making a fuss about this movement.

“Leviathan will run away!”

“Chance! Chase! Chase!”

“There may be an egg beyond that.”

“I am first !!”

Hunters and food providers are snorting.

In the end, even those who cast magic on a nearby ship and interfered with it appeared.

It wasn’t just the hunters who chased Leviathan who were excited.

The roaring voices of Gangel and Henderone seen from the quay echoed to the sandy beach where we were.

“Look, Gangel! Leviathan will run away !!”

“I can see it, Marquis !! So please stop shaking my head …!”

It seems that they are very active over there.

It’s a pretty good combination. Let’s bless them.

“You’re late, Zelet!”

The Gangel gazes at me and grins like a fish in the water.

He pointed to Leviathan, who went offshore, and the hunters who chased him, and snorted proudly.

“I’m sick of your bragging. It’s not too late to return to the Hunter Guild.”

Who will return?

I wouldn’t say anything. Isn’t it Gangel who wants me to come back?

Besides, I’m not late for it …

“Say your regrets. I don’t know if you will bark later.”

“Well, which one is it?”

I laughed lightly.

The beach becomes quiet at once. This is because there are no hunters or food providers around.

The only people left are Gangel and Henderone, who stand on the quay with us.

Only the footprints of the hunters and the trash that was thrown away on the beach remained (don’t you know the manners of the beach?).

The wind starts blowing.

The wind blowing from the north side of the bay suddenly changes to the wind from the east. When dull clouds flowed from offshore, the waves gradually rose and white waves struck the quay.

A gust of wind runs through an unobstructed beach, making the umbrellas fly away.

“A storm is about to come.”

“Are the hunters who went offshore all right?”

When Rafina looks up at the sky, Olivia talks about the hunters and food providers who disappeared across the waves. She is very considerate.

Pamela also extinguished the instant fire on the beach and took a breath.

Due to the sudden bad weather, the surrounding air becomes heavy.

Perhaps the only one who isn’t nervous here is the idiot disciple who is chasing the flying umbrella while screaming.

Then, Rir, who had been lying down on the beach for a long time, raised her face.

She starts sniffing the strong tide blowing from the east.

“Rir !!”

“Woof! !! “

Rir barks cheerfully.

“Did it come !!”

“What’s coming, Zelet?”

“It’s a water rupture”

“Amniotic fluid? Did anyone get pregnant? No way —-“

“Oh, Olivia, why are you looking at me? Wow, not me.”

“I’m sorry. I wonder if it’s already such a relationship …”

“That means I still have a chance …”

“Rafina-san, did you say anything?”

“I haven’t said anything else.”

The three women are really bustling. I’m sorry. Or rather, it’s simply noisy.

I shook my head, “Do it!”

“No one is pregnant. It was Leviathan who broke the water.”

“” “Leviathan !!” “”

Pamela, Olivia, and Rafina all screamed.

Prim, who came back after catching an umbrella in a crazy voice, snapped her eyes.

“I see. If you think about it, it lays eggs, so there is a good chance that a water rupture will occur.”

“But how did you find out, Zelet-sama?”

“Rir’s nose”

“Can Rir also distinguish the smell of Leviathan’s water rupture?”

As expected, Rir is not so versatile.

What I was commanding Rir was “let me know if it smells strange.”

Various scents swirl on the beach. The smell of the tide, the smell of food, the smell of rocky shore, the smell of humans, and much more.

They are commonplace, and there are countless scents on this beach, but the scent of water rupture-that is, amniotic fluid-is not immediately mixed with the air.

As you can see in the city, Rir’s eyes are facing the sea.

Undoubtedly, it’s a signal that Leviathan’s childbirth is about to begin.

“Zelet-san, you were waiting for that.”

“Wow … I can’t tell if a monster has given birth by the smell of amniotic fluid.”

“But Zelet … Leviathan went offshore. The hunters are also chasing. In the end, you’ll be overtaken.”

I put my hand on Pamela’s head, who was staring anxiously.

“No problem. I was convinced when I saw that move of Leviathan.”

Above all, the scheduled date is significantly different from the date written in the literature, which is around 10 days.

“no doubt—-“

There are two Leviathans …
