Gumihou: Adjusted dialogue, especially Suiâs. Sheâs suddenly speaking ânormal peopleâ words, completely different from her âSweet Sui-tan~~â way
ââHm? This fish looks kinda different?ââ Dora-chan commented.
ââCan eat fishy~?ââ
ââI guess thatâs the most relevant question. Hey, Master, can we eat this one?ââ
I was currently looking nervously into the sea at the circling dorsal fin. When it burst out of the sea, instead of the long spear-like nose, what I saw was an image from a completely different iconic blockbuster poster.
When a gigantic mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth suddenly lunged at us, the last thing on my mind was whether it would be good to eat or not!!
Just donât eat meeeee!!!
Itâs JAWS!
JAWS ATTACK!!
I had already long since abandoned any thoughts of preserving my dignity and was currently flat on the deck, trying not to be thrown off by Suiâs speed. Members of the [Ark] were in varying stages of distress/apathy. In short, no one was in any shape to judge others.
In contrast, Fer and Grandpa Gon were so chill that they were still nappingâ¦
I donât know whether to be furious or comforted by this scene.
âHow could you guys still sleep now!!â
âIâll remember this!!â
Being angry is certainly more therapeutic.
ââTake this! Pew pew!ââ
Sui launched Acid Bullets into the gigantic sharkâs mouth.
Splashâ!
Splashâ!
Splashâ!
The shark twisted and splashed in place
âUwawawawa!!!â
When the super giant shark started raging and splashing around, the [Mizumaru] shook and trembled. This was terrible. It was like a replay of yesterdayâs whirlpool of death, but worse! Because this time we were thrown about all over the place instead of being smashed down by constant G-force going one way!
ââYay~ woohoo~ fun~~ââ
â⦠â¦â Iâm so glad the [Ark] couldnât hear Sui having funâ¦
Splash, slapâ¦
The sharkâs movements were noticeably slower now. Eventually [Mizumaru] stopped heaving and shaking so much. I looked ahead and saw the white belly of a very large fish.
ââAah⦠itâs overâ¦ââ
Sui sounded disappointed.
The shark disappeared and Suiâs tentacles stretched forward. She dropped a large jagged fang and a magic stone on board. ââHere~ Aruji~ââ
ââAh, Sui got it? Damn. Welp, Imma get the next one!!ââ
ââEehh~~ Sui wants to beat more~! That one is boring~~ââ
ââOu!! Letâs gooo!!!ââ
âWait, no more, no noooooo!!â
â¦.â¦â¦â¦.
..â¦.â¦
â¦.
âHey, how long are you guys going to continue this?â
ââUntil I get that fish with delicious meat!ââ
ââFishy~ meaty~~ yummy~~ââ
These twoâ¦
âI think we have enough marlin meat, okay?â
ââMore is better.ââ
ââMore fishy~~ââ
This⦠reminds me of the time Fer casually said he wants to eat all the fish in a lake, or was it a stream? I canât remember anymore.
âHey, I really donât think-â
ââOu! I see something!!ââ Dora-chan crowed before launching himself into the sky once again.
ââLetâs gooo~~!!!ââ
Sui, I do wish you wouldnât pick up all these bad habitsâ¦
âHahhh⦠no oneâs listening to meâ¦â
Should I apologise to the [Ark]? I felt like I have to, butâ¦
When I look at them, each of them has this serene smile on their face. As though they have attained some sort of enlightenmentâ¦
âIâm exhaustedâ¦â
These were the first words that trickled out of my mouth when we arrived at our âcampâ island.
I mean, sure I was not the one running around chasing after shadows of Tyrant Swordfishes, but⦠you know that feeling of being dragged around by an enthusiastic shopper of things you have no interest in?!
Thatâs how I am feeling nowâ¦
Todayâs super diligent shoppers were Sui and Dora-chan who kept speeding after every dorsal fin to track down the Tyrant Swordfish. Since Dora-chan had to depend on his eyes instead of special senses like Fer and Grandpa Gon, we ended up chasing down things like sharks, more sharks, a killer whale-like thing and something that looked like a whale but has a mouth full of razor-sharp teeth.
Aahhh, there are times when I missed the creatures from my own world. Thereâs a reason why whales are called gentle giants, you know? The giants here are not gentle at all!!!
Even the enlightened [Ark] had turned completely white from the shock and horror of the thing. Personally, I think I should be commended for keeping my sanity, you know?!
âHaahhh⦠what a terrible dayâ¦â On days like this, I just want to flop into bed and shut out the rest of the world-
âWhatâs for dinner today?â
Ugh.
Thatâs right, although Iâm exhausted, it was mostly mental exhaustion. I still have a job to do. Maybe I could just give them Something Don-
âShall we eat the fish caught by Sui and Dora?â
âSounds good, I [Appraised] it earlier, itâs supposed to be delicious.â
Gunununu⦠they are deciding things on their own againâ¦
âSo,â I said, âit turns out you guys are very much aware of everything thatâs going on even when asleep, huh?â
âIndeed.â
âOf course.â
Ugh, I was being sarcastic, but look at their smug facesâ¦
Hah, want to eat fish? Forget it! Just eat some randomly thrown-together rice and meat. You should be grateful to have food provided by great me!
ââSui wants to eat fishy~~ Sui caught the fishy~~ââ
ââMe too! Fish! Fish!ââ
âHahhh⦠fine, you all want fish for dinner right?â
A chorus of âyesâ answered me.
âFine, but I have a condition.â
âA condition? What is it?â
Grrrr, that smug look on Ferâs face makes me want to⦠to smack him with a frying pan!
âI want a break, a day off! A day off to rest on this island! Tomorrow, all day, no more exploring the sea!â I spat out all of my conditions in one go.
âHear, hear!â the [Ark] people cheered me on, their eyes sparkling.
âFumu, very well.â
âHm?â
Fer is oddly agreeable?
ââOi, oi, oi, donât we need to move quickly?ââ Dora-chan protested.
âItâs fine, I shall tell you why later,â
ââHey, just what-ââ
âDora-chan, later,â Grandpa Gon was smiling, but he was somehow threatening Dora-chanâ¦
Suspicious!
Itâs all so very suspicious!
Whatever, I donât care anymore.
Letâs just take it easy tomorrow.
