Chapter 33: School holiday and fish market

It's Monday morning and I'm heading to school, sighing absently. I didn't sleep well last night because I was absorbed in the hunt for Desnia.

I had no choice. If I calculate the logout time of the game, I'll lose money if I don't play at night. That's why I can't help myself from doing it.

I walked into the classroom and Kaito started talking to me.

"You look very sleepy again today. Didn't you quit your part-time job?"

"Yeah, I've been playing that game you told me about during the break. I didn't sleep well"

"Hee...h?"

Kaito froze. There are a few others. What is it?

"What, What did you just say?"

"I was playing the game you recommended"

"Is that Elysion Online?"

"You didn't recommend anything else, did you?"

Then suddenly Kaito shouted. Hes a noisy guy. What the hell?

"Why are you playing it? I recommended it, but I haven't played it yet!"

I don't know.

"I mean, why do you have the first limited edition!"

It's not good to tell people I got it from my part-time job...

"Secret"

"Why do you have to be so annoying? Just let me hear it!"

You want to hear it? I don't have a choice.

"I'm a summoner and I'm having adventures with two pretty girls"

"I'm not talking about the game...wait, wait, I just heard something I don't want to hear"

"Good night"

"Don't go to sleep! Tell me more! Goddamn it!"

I've been up all morning. This guy.

After school, I went home. Kaito dashed off as soon as the bell rang. He wants to play the game as soon as possible. I didn't know what it meant until last Friday, but it's strange to know now.

"We sell amur minnow and japanese dace"

Is there japanese dace already...that's great! But my goal is landlocked masu salmon.

"Don't you have landlocked masu salmon?"

"Yes, but they are rarely available. You can catch landlocked masu salmon by hook-and-line fishing, but you need a sturdy fishing rod to catch them, so it's rare"

"That's right...the simpler the hook, the harder it is to catch"

"Oh! Customer, you know how to catch them, don't you?"

"More or less...it's a method of fishing with only a light weight, right? There's no float, so you fish with your hands"

"You're very knowledgeable, older brother. That's right. It's the most popular fishing method around here because you don't need a fancy fishing rod"

The fish dealer was intrigued. It's time to make a move.

"I'm actually interested in fishing. Can you teach me about fishing skill and bait?"

"I see. The fishing skill can be acquired by catching fish and we sell bait"

"That's good business"

"I'll lose to older brother who talked about fishing and made me interested"

Well, it's obvious, isn't it?

"Then, can I see your bait, please?"

"Yes. Although we only deal in worms as bait"

The worms came in a box. A pack of worms costs 150G, which is a lot cheaper than fish.

"Then, please pack two of them"

"Thank you!"

The fish dealer approached me after I had paid and received the package.

"If you have a lot of fish, we can buy them from you. I'm expecting landlocked masu salmon"

"That's very clever. I'd love to have that opportunity"

"Sure"

The old man at the fish shop. But I don't think there will be any left...because there's Ion staring at the fish...

Now, let's go see Crow-san and Yug-san. Aim for fishing gear!
