"Roll-rolling.

　Seto's gracious cry echoes into the sky.
　Ray and Sett were flying through the sky to the port city of Emosion, where the heavy rain on the previous day was a lie in the spring sunshine.
　Beyond such a single gaze was a vast horizon that seemed to last forever.
　Some ships can be seen moving off the coast of Emocion or anchored in port. There are also a wide variety of ships, from gigantic vessels like open ocean vessels to vessels that travel to and from ports on the same continent as the Kingdom of Mileana, to fishing vessels.
　Watching such a scene from above, Ray, like Sett, was fascinated by it.
　But then... from one of the ships crossing the sea in the sight of Ray and Sett, suddenly bowing, magic, and everything else, barrels, swords, spears, are thrown into the sea.

"...what?"

　For a moment, I thought I was caught in a pirate or something, but I immediately reconsider that the pirate could not have gone on a rampage within sight of the harbor. Then the next moment I remembered why I had come to this city of Emocion.

"Well, that's the work of a monster in the sea,"

　Lightning arrows, fireballs, water spears, and so on are shot one after another in front of the eyes, but sea water shields monsters in the sea to absorb most of the magical power, preventing damage. Still, the monster never shows up at sea, and the ship gradually sinks as it slants, perhaps because of a hole in the bottom of the ship.
　They must be on their way to rescue the ship. Or perhaps some people are trying to defeat monsters for prize money, but from the harbor you can see a number of ships heading offshore.

"Grull?"

　Ray suffers from Seto, who bends his head and asks, "What are you going to do?"
　In terms of rescue, Seto would be a child or a woman, if she were to ride anything other than Ray. If you wear heavy equipment like armour, it will be difficult for you to do that.
　It will be all right if you grab it with the claws of your forefoot, but if you don't drown, you'll be more likely to get hurt with the claws or die if you don't do so.

"But... I see. Is it a good opportunity to sell your name here? If you make a good impression, there will be fewer idiots involved."

　Instead of helping others, they look offshore, concluding what they do entirely with their calculations.
　The bottom of the ship has already been completely destroyed or something has been done there. The ship was sinking rapidly.

"Set! Let's go to the rescue as a first step in selling our names. Try to avoid the exterior walls!"
"Gurgling!"

　She sings high at Ray's words and flaps her wings for the sea.
　In doing so, considering the possibility of measures being taken for monsters flying on the outer walls just like the city of Gilm, remember to instruct them to fly off the outer walls.
　Of course, it was not necessarily the same device as the remote town of Gilm, but it was still inevitable. He was killed in a crash when he was caught in a street gimmick for help. in order not to be like that





　While Seto was heading for the sea bypassing the city of Emosion, most rescue ships leaving the harbor had not yet arrived at the scene.
　Basically, it's a handboat or sailboat, so it's inevitable that the speed will be difficult, but even so, the few magic-item ships have arrived in the area where they are located, and they're watching the sea while rescuing people thrown into the sea.
　It's not just the monster that sank the ship earlier. There are plenty of other monsters in the ocean that are targeting passengers thrown into the ocean.

"d*mn it, you don't have to defeat monsters, you just have to shoot numbers and get time! Auxiliaries from the harbour are coming soon! You can kill monsters!"

　one of several magic‐item ships in the waters of the scene The ship was a small boat about three meters long and, if not very much, had no space to help people who had been thrown into the surrounding sea. Thus, the leader of the adventurers on board the ship concentrates on checking out monsters desperately targeting passengers from underwater, rather than rescuing the people around them.

"Please, come quickly..."

　He looks prayerfully at the ships heading this way from the harbor and throws a harpoon in his hand at a monster with the upper body of a crab and the lower body of a water carrier trying to attack the passengers near the ship.
　The attack itself was hampered by the double defenses of seawater and crab shells, and could not be damaged, but it must have been a check. On the spot it reverses back to the bottom of the sea.

"Leader! Anyway, we can't get them on board even if they're near this ship!? At this rate, the enemy's aim is too much to catch up with!"

　shake one's head in the voice of a fellow adventurer aboard a ship with an expression of bitterness.

"No! If we put people on board now, we'll be stuck. If that happens, there will be more damage!"
"But... oh! I'm so stubborn!"

　a female archer who shoots an arrow with her bow while screaming.
　The shot arrow pierced the head of a fish, which was about 2 meters long and was about to swallow a person in the sea, and killed him.
　The killed monster sinks directly into the sea, while the smaller monsters gather and bite into its body and feed it.

"A little bit! Over there! There's a sea snake-like group coming!"

　The leader at the helm turned to the voice of his comrades and there was certainly a sea snake-like monster population heading toward them from offshore.

"Well, that number is poor. Suore, do a wide range of magic! I think there was a thunderbolt, right?"
"I can't do it! It's the sea around me! It's damaging to people in the sea!"

　Monsters in the sea are basically vulnerable to the magic of the thunder system, but if you use it, it will naturally damage people in the sea.
　The man who instantly remembered it, hesitates for a moment... that hesitation leads to a fatal delay in time.

`Oh, my God!'
"What!"

　a sudden scream I turned my eyes to the sound of the scream, where a middle-aged man in his forties was sinking into the sea.
　Because it is a highly transparent sea, the leader can clearly see what has done it.

"d*mn it, ?"

　Yes, the sea snake-like monster population that was ostensibly heading towards one side of the ship was the sea snakes, and the real thing was swimming deeper before them.
　It's not that thick, but the monster, as if it's more than four meters long, opens its mouth with sharp fangs as it dives around the sailor's body...the next moment a great deal of blood is mixed in the seawater.

"d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn!

　Shouting backward, the distance from the ships coming from the harbor doesn't seem to be much shorter than before.
　At this rate, by the time the reinforcements arrive, they are in danger of not helping those thrown into the sea.
　Not only this party, but all the other parties who had a ship of magic items thought so with despair.
　Rather than being wiped out for a moment, will we run away by ourselves? That idea comes to mind, but I can't do it if I can look at people in the sea as if I were clinging to them.

"Leader, there's a big fat over there!"

　I immediately turn to the voice of my fellow archers. At that time, what the leader saw was a mouth large enough to swallow himself, and an infinite array of sharp tusks.

(Oh, no...)

　mutter so in spite of oneself The enemy is already too close to avoid, but it is too late to intercept.
　Will this be the end of my life for less than twenty years? My thoughts were steeped in despair.

"Hit!"

　At the same time as I hear such a voice, my huge mouth, which I was pressing to eat to death, is forced to move sideways in the air, and a monster with a huge mouth right next to the leader... a monster with a seemingly shark-like body, jumps over a ship of magic items and dives into the sea."...what?"

　Wasn't I supposed to die? Why are you alive? Whose voice was the last one you heard? I muttered with that in mind, but there was no reply from my partymates. No, for some reason he didn't intercept the approaching enemy monsters, he just looked up at the sky with his mouth wide open.
　The leader didn't notice it, either, as did other adventurers with ships of magic items around them, or those thrown into the sea.
　I was trying to look up reflexively at my companions' appearance.

"Well, that's hard. I can't believe I could only scratch it with a flying sword."

　With the flapping of the wings, such voices come down from above.

"Grull".
"Oh, yes," Anyway, I understand that even though it's a sea monster, if you're about to attack like you are now, you can deal with it without any problems. The rest is timing, but ... hey, are you all right?"

　a leader who comes back to life with the voice of a small boy But for a moment, I can't believe whether I've really come back to life. Perhaps I'm still sleeping in the bed of an inn in the city of Emosion. Isn't this a dream? I'll take it into your head.
　After all, the eyes are on the Gryphon of the Rank A monster, who has the upper body of an eagle and the lower body of a lion. And behind it was an adventurer, with a huge sickle taller than he was, calling out to himself.
　Even if you're an adventurer... No. Being dumbfounded at the incredible sight of being an adventurer, Ray, who had been exploring the sea.

"I've come to rescue you, and I'd like you to help me if possible."

　The word brings back the leader who remembered what they had come all the way to.
　In addition, ships that had gradually left the port were approaching, and some of the proud ships had already shrunk considerably.
　Seeing it, the leader calls out to Ray, checking the surroundings quickly.

"Thank you for coming to the reinforcements. Take the people in the sea to the large ships that are coming from behind!"
"I don't mind that, but... you're persistent!"

　Once again, Ray noticed the giant shark-like monster coming up in the sea and targeting him, holding his spear in his left hand and holding it in his right hand.

"If it's a fish, it's like a fish... on skewers!"

　The spears released with the words cut the air, and even sea water, into the mouth of the shark-shaped monster who came back to jump into the air, and into his throat.
　A shark-shaped monster that is skewered and sunk into the sea as Ray himself put it through his throat.

(Do you sink? I think it usually floats when you die.) This is especially the sea. ...but I'm devastated. If this is the case, it must be hard to get the magical stone of the monster you knocked down.)

　If it only sank into the sea, it would be possible to pull up the surrounding sea, which is highly transparent. But there are a lot of monsters around, and they don't overlook what they feed on. For example, even monsters that have been knocked down by adventurers. 　
　In fact, the shark-shaped monster Ray just knocked down is already swarming with monsters in the sea, rapidly decreasing its body volume. It's probably only a bone in a few minutes.

"Hey, you! Anyway, rescue me! Carry the people in the sea on the big ship flying this way!"

　The adventurer, who was finally able to take a breather because of the sea monsters swarming over the shark that Ray had killed, immediately turns his eyes to the people at sea without nodding.
　I wonder if there are about a hundred of them. There were many more on board, but those who shared their fate with the ship or were involved in a series of battles. And above all, many were preyed on by monsters swimming in the ocean, reducing their numbers to this level.

"Only girls and children can carry it on my Gryphon, in weight. Is that all right?"
"Oh, oh! Please!"

　With a little strain, an adult man can naturally carry it. However, he wanted to avoid it because of the rapid exhaustion of Seto's physical strength. But...

"Grull!"

　Seto shouts the necklace around her neck to Ray.
　Dropstone of love. It's a magic item that always gives you a healing effect. It doesn't have such a powerful recovery effect, but it's okay to carry an adult man to a large ship that's approaching.
　While patting Seto's neck, Ray said he should first carry women and children who have no way against monsters.
