1193 120, dark sea lane

Huh!?

What is that!?

It's a shellfish anyway, isn't it?

A swarm of scallops about two males long approached the ship in a movement like a water drain shot. Mmm, it's creepy.

"It's a sea scallop! Secure your defenses! Drop all the sails!

The captain's voice resonates. It's a name that's going to cut off anyway. The sailor is beginning to climb the mast. The adventurers lined up with a gap on the starboard side. The defense system.

All right, then I'll be here....

Water Wall

I'll catch you all in a size big enough to cover up the ship.

"Uhhh!?

"Somebody messed with the wizard!?

"Can't you stop it with a water wall!?

"Don't be alarmed! They're not coming through!

"What? Are you coming?

Of course. It's my thick water wall. Is it something that breaks when the sail jumps over the sea?

And... once all the sail stands are taken into the water wall...

Lightning strike

I stabbed him, cut the water and put it in the Magic Depot. That's what I'm talking about. Now we're out of trouble.....

"Captain, do they always move like that? Sometimes he's running away from something.

When it comes to group movement of monsters, it's a classic escape from something.

"Thank goodness... I don't know... it's a sea scallop, but it's mostly like that. But it's three times more likely than usual... to be running away..."

I see. I see. Farewell, Magic Expedition.

They're coming from the south... focus on your side. The remaining magic is about 60%. After all, yesterday's waste resonates. I haven't slept much.

Whoa, there's a reaction from the big guy. But not so fast.

"Captain, there's a big man coming from the south. But I think this ship will be able to escape far enough. Of course, I'll decide whether to escape or intercept.

"Whoa... hey, watch! Look south! Is something coming?!

The captain shouted upwards. The sailor on the mast replies.

"Um... I'm coming! It's about three kilometers away! It's a giant lightning bolt! Hey, hey!

Is it that big? How far-sighted?

Hmm, it's big, but it's not as big as aspidokeron. And then there's no place to eat jellyfish. I want you to say you want magic stones, but I don't think you want them to be impossible. I'm on escort duty. Running away would be the end of it.

"Does Alec know?

"I wonder if it's about the lightning bolt, the sea moon. They say it's dangerous to get close. They say a strong electric shock will stop your heart. But it has nothing to do with Curse. I'll put on Lightning Protection for now.

Ah, if the country is different, how do you call monsters change? It's strange that the words are almost the same. No, it's strange that they say the same thing.

"Pull up the sail! Wizard, let the wind blow! Let's get out of here! Keep an eye on the watch!

"Take the rudder!

"Bring it back!

Following the captain's orders, the ship's course has slightly turned north. Still, orders come from this big ship. I don't see any signs of using messages, and I don't see the steerer anywhere. Well, it looks like we can get away with this. This ship is fast.

"Captain, it's time for dark sea lanes."

"Wow. Whoa, whoa, whoa! Still see the giant thunder and sea moon!?

"I can't see! He disappeared from sight about five minutes ago!

"Got it! Keep looking! Now pay special attention to the southwest!

"Copy that. Come on!

Hey, how's it going? What is it? Is it the ocean?

"Oh, adventurers! Everybody back in the cabin! From here on out, it's shaking hard! Don't fall into the sea at best!

Is it still difficult?

"Alec, stay with Ko-chan and the others. I'm here.

"Yeah, well, you'll be sleeping first. Come quickly.

He slipped his cheeks and went back to the cabin. Alec is really cute.

"Captain, I will cooperate as soon as I can. For example, if a sailor falls into the sea, I can pick it up. Later on... you can cancel out any waves that are higher than the ship.

"What a mess... Why do you think you're an adventurer... a magician of the land... the Kingdom of Roland? Don't you think you can make it easy?

"I can't be. My ancestor invited me. But I can't do that without Dahl. I've decided to live free. Well, that doesn't matter. Give me proper instructions.

"Oh... the next voyage will be thoughtful... oh dear..."

So I went up to the sailor called Watch earlier. Pretty expensive.

"Hey, that's a nice view. By the way, why do you say" Ahnya "around here?

"Wow! I'm surprised... did you fly... from above? Why don't you take a look at the ocean from there?

"Black... right?

"From the south to the north, there's a dark ocean running like night. That's why it's called a dark sea lane."

"Why is it so dark?

"Come on? There's a lot of strange stuff going on in the world."

The color of the ocean is related to the amount of plankton and the depth of the water, right? Does the fact that the border is clearly black from there mean it's suddenly getting deeper? I wonder if the trench like a crack extends all the way to the north and south. There seems to be another reason, but I don't know what you don't know.

I wanted to dive a little, but I need to save my magic. If you encounter a dangerous monster in the deep sea, it will be difficult. But I'd like to try the deepest trial someday. How deep can I dive? I feel like I'm consuming more magic than going into space.

Now, the waves are getting higher and higher....
