Chapter 12: Water-based stone and trap
Chapter 12: Water-based stone and trap
I take my new companion Gray and mine with the pickaxe at the mining point.
Salt: Rarity 1 Cooking Quality F
No effect
One of the important seasonings in cooking.
It has no effect, but it can add saltiness to a dish and make delicious dishes.
According to the information, I got salt. If I get on the right track and mine more and more, there will be no mining points around me. Except for one place.......
The mining point was on a rock in the middle of the river. It's a suspicious scent, whether it's going through the river and mining.
I asked Lily and Gray if they could enter the river, but it didn't work. I don't have the swimming skill yet. I'm like that, but I'm not drowning, am I?
I never enter the river. The water level is below the waist. Can I go with this?
I go down the river carefully. I don't like the dark spots. This is the deep part. Even in the real world, it seems that there are many cases where you get into this deep place and drown.
Avoiding it, I proceeded along the river and arrived at my destination. Go up to the rock and use the pickaxe as the mining point to mine. Then I got no salt.
Water-based stone: Rarity 2 Material Quality E-
A stone with a water attribute. It can be taken in a place surrounded by water.
It's definitely surrounded by water. Gray suddenly screams when I'm convinced.
"Gaa!"
What's wrong? Then Lily tells the danger.
"Takuto! There is something in the river!"
When I heard Lily's voice and looked back, I saw a tail fin from the river. That tail fin is......no way!?
Did I watch a mysterious fish diving in the water? Then I notice that the flow of the river is suddenly getting faster. This is dangerous!
I hold the staff and threaten the fish. Now, what to do......if that tail fin is the same as the real one, the opponent is a piranha. It is a carnivorous fish famous for being in the Amazon River. Originally it was a small fish, but it was about 2 meters from the size of the tail fin and the visible shade. It's not a fish that lives in such a river!
My means of attack are staff, hit, kick and fire magic. Fire magic is most likely to have firepower, but I don't think it will work for fish that are wet. The tutorial also explains that water is resistant to fire. Therefore I have three choices: staff, hit or kick. If the opponent attacks me, it will be possible to attack on the counter.
The problem is the size of this guy. Boars are a normal boar size and the goblins are a child size. This guy is about 2 meters tall. Obviously strong. There is no escape here even if I hit it with a counter attack. It's over when I miss and fall into the river.
Then what should I do....... I look at the staff......can I go? No, I have no choice but to do it. There is a way to get new magic, but it won't be a decisive hit. This is a game!
"Lily! Gray! Stay away from danger!"
"Look out, Takuto!"
Right.
"Gray! What should I do......Takuto is in a pinch!"
Lily grabs Gray's neck and shakes it. Stop it......Gray was in a sense in the same crisis as I was. Well, I didn't expect to use it for myself, but I bet on the possibility of this here.
"Power up!"
This should have temporarily increased my strength. After that, I have no choice but to believe in this increase in muscle strength. Concentrate my nerves while holding the staff. After a while, there is a peculiar sound of something swimming in the water from behind. And there was a vigorous sinking sound in the water.
Come!
When I turned around, a piranha about 2 meters in size opened its mouth wide and attacked me. Ask......go well!
"Hit!"
I hit the piranha with the staff blow and blow it to where Lily and Gray are. It worked......I didn't think I could do it honestly. Probably thanks to the power-up enhancement.
"Wawa!?"
Lily evacuates while grabbing Gray's neck. The blown piranha falls on land. It rampages, but after all it's a fish......it can't do anything on land.
"Lily, Gray. Take it down"
"Alright!"
Lily replies cheerfully, but Gray doesn't reply. It's fully stretched. ......Are you okay?
Lily and Gray, who returned from the middle and I attacked carefully with fire magics fire and killed the piranha. Then the flow of the river is restored and we are in a level-up rush.

With this, the remaining skill points are 18pt. After all, it seems that it was a pretty strong enemy. I mean, this is the first time Lily's attack wasn't a blow.
And Lily is gaining new skills. Will fighting spirit make her become an unpleasant person?
Even so, the phenomenon that a piranha appears and the flow of the river became faster at the moment of collection. Obviously a trap. There were also unpleasant traps......good grief.
I cross the river safely and join Lily and Gray.
"Takuto! Was it okay? Are you injured?"
"Im fine, Lily"
She was worried. It is because of the administration which made such a malicious trap.
Items fall when I thrust the dismantling knife into the piranha. Here's what fell.
Piranha Fang: Rarity 3 Material Quality E-
It is characterized by its hardness so that it can eat meat sharply. When used as a weapon, it may have a water attribute on rare occasions.
Piranha Scale: Rarity 3 Material Quality E-
Jagged scale. It is a fish scale, so it is light. When used as armor, it may become fire resistant on rare occasions.
Since I dismantled and appraised it here, I leveled up both skills.

When I look at the drop items, fire won't work at all. However, I can't make weapons and armor, so I have to go to Crow-san again.
Having reached my goal, I decided to go back to town. Ah, Gray was safe.
