Pirates and Piracy Arc

(178) Prologue

Translator: Tseirp

Under the brilliant sunlight, the sailing s.h.i.+p failed to sail through the ocean . That’s right, failed .

“I totally didn’t expect the lull to continue on for so long … ”

Water could be created using magic while there were vast amounts of vegetables available as a food source in My World . Furthermore, even without a bath, body cleanliness can be maintained using the 「Clean」 magic so it won’t lead to illness . As there wasn’t any danger to our lives, this lull period was extremely boring . Even if I tried to use Wind Magic, they are a type of offensive magic so it would surely break the sail . Surprisingly, magic was hard to utilize apart from the magic of Lifestyle Magic .

Although being impatient won’t change a thing, to be honest, I was extremely tired of having only vegetables to eat .

As such, I was now amusing myself with fis.h.i.+ng .

I had Pionia construct the fis.h.i.+ng rod, fis.h.i.+ng line, and fis.h.i.+ng hook . She truly is a dexterous person .

As for the bait, I cut the dried meat into small pieces for now .

Wearing the same straw hat made by Pionia, Carol and I both fished side by side .

“Oh, by the way, Carol, you’ve acquired the Angler job after your Farmer level increased right?”

I suddenly thought of it and asked Carol .

As the Farmer level rises, it will open up jobs such as Whip-user, Angler, Harvester, Cook, and Sickle-user in that sequence .

Even though I still don’t quite understand how the Whip-user is related to a Farmer, since Carol has already acquired the Harvester job, she should have acquired the Angler job too .

Incidentally, her Harvester job level increased as a result of that day’s battle so she acquired the Apprentice Herbalist job but as she didn’t learn a single recipe, she can’t create a single medicine .

“Yes, I have . Angler is a job that can earn experience points by fis.h.i.+ng . ”

“Well then, maybe I should change Carol’s job to Angler … My Farmer level has not leveled up after all . ”

My Farmer level was still currently at Lv3 .

I’ve been reminding myself to train it . I wanted to become a Monster-user after getting Whip-user after all .

“Thank you . If Carol’s Angler level increases, Carol will be able to raise the Dismantling skill too . ”

“Eh? An angler can raise Dismantling level too?”

“Yes . Carol heard that there are three types of jobs that can raise the Dismantling level, Hunter, Angler, and Dismantler . ”

I see, I didn’t know that .

Thanks to the rise in level of my Dismantler job, I have quite considerable skill in the art of dismantling but the level can rise even further huh?

“This reminds me of when I went fis.h.i.+ng with my family . ”

I muttered without thinking .

“Family … huh . ”

Carol’s expression darkened instantly .

“Ah, sorry . ”

I apologized immediately .

Both of Carol’s parents were already dead . The reason was due to the skill Carol possess .

The topic on family was taboo .

“No, it’s all right . Carol also wish to hear about Ichino-sama’s family and furthermore, to Carol now, Ichino-sama, Haru-san and Malina-san are my family . ”

“I see . Yup, for me too, I have Carol, Haru and Malina so I won’t be lonely even if I don’t meet my younger sister . ”

Conversely, I wondered how my younger sister was feeling … I looked up to the sky .

Miri’s feelings, in a different world, having lost her brother and parents and with only money to accompany her . I definitely won’t forget my sin of leaving her behind alone .

“And so, Ichino-sama . Did this fis.h.i.+ng remind you of something?”

“Hn? Yeah . It just reminded me of the time when my younger sister Miri fished up something called a tuna weighing 420 kilograms during a fis.h.i.+ng compet.i.tion . ”

“It’s an extraordinary story even when you’re just starting from the introduction!?”

The wind blew just as I started talking .

“The wind is here! Carol, please prepare the sails!”

“Yes, Ichino-sama! Please make sure to tell Carol the continuation of that story!”

“Okay! There’s also a battle story with a giant squid!”

The s.h.i.+p finally started sailing .

Towards Port Kobe .

※※※

It has been a week since we started our voyage .

According to Carol, we should be seeing signs of land soon but all I could see was the shadow of the s.h.i.+p . Turning to look in another direction, I saw something coming straight for us .

It looked like the s.h.i.+p ahead of us noticed us .

“Hard to starboard!”

The s.h.i.+p tilted to the right as I turned right . I don’t know which side is starboard which side is port but I was probably right .

“Carol, we’ve done it! Now, we can find out the exact distance to Port Kobe!”

I shouted loudly but Carol’s complexion didn’t look too good when the opposing s.h.i.+p matched our turn and their sail came into sight .

“Ichino-sama, please prepare for battle just in case . ”

Maybe Carol was holding herself back from pouring water on my joy as she said softly .

” … Eh?”

Preparations for battle?

“Normally, s.h.i.+ps won’t change their direction towards another s.h.i.+p they see … unless . ”

“Ah … you mean that possibility . ”

I finally got it after she explained it that way .

In other words —

As the s.h.i.+p in the horizon steadily grew bigger, I finally saw it .

The sail was black and depicted a skill mark .

A stereotypical pirate s.h.i.+p .

How do I put this, what a promising development?

“Hn, I wonder if they will tell me the distance to Port Kobe if I give them a barrel full of tomato and wine?”

I said with a wry smile .

If they are still hostile after I give them tomato and wine, I’ll just have to sink their s.h.i.+p .
