Allrounders!!-Chapter 126
Next up is port town Keyha! Yaaay! Iâm looking forward to it soooo much!
âAlright, letâs stock up plenty and plentyyyy!â đrđâŻđđđđđđeđč.cđ°đŠ
âHmmâŠthe last time I went there and ate somethinâ, it didnât taste all that special, though.â
He really doesnât get it. Fish is great even when eaten raw!
When we switched to Bronko on the wayâŠ
âOoohh! The scent of the sea hangs in the air!â
âHmm? âŠâŠâŠ Ah, this is what you call it, huh?â
The ocean!!! Iâm so hyped! fđżeđđžeđđđšđ«đđĄ.cđđŠ
âI want to make a swimsuit. Iâll use the insect fabric for it.â
âSwimsuit? You mean clothes you wear âround water?â
âIndeed! Well, it doesnât really matter for men. As long as you wear a pair of pants thatâs not transparent and hides your nether region, the rest doesnât matter. But, for women itâs different! I have to make a cute swimsuit~â
Sword immediately poured cold water on me as I was in high spirits.
âDonât worry. It wonât make any difference if you wear the same as men. You not havinâ ânythinâ down there is goinâ to make it easier to sew as well, right?â
âŠâŠ
I CA-NâT HE-AR A THI-NG!

Once we entered the town after passing the checkpoint, I exclaimed, âOohh! Oooooohhh! A seashore fantasy!â
It was a town suited for houses made out of earth the most so far. I could also see masts in the background. Probably because sailing ships were anchored at the port.
Once I squealed cheerfully, Sword said with a laugh, âYou sure got it nice. Everythingâs new for you. Iâve come here in the past, so I canât get so deeply impressed âbout everythinâ.â
Seeing Sword so indifferent about it, I pointed a hand at the sun, âThen, become moved from now on! The sea is close and there are no tall grasses, so the sunlightâs reflections on the water are dazzling! The harmful sun rays are glittering!â
âAnd I should be moved by that? Listen up, just make sure to block the harmful sun rays, âkay?â
Since Iâve been doing that, his skin has become quite beautiful. Heâs looking a lot younger these days.
âTouringâŠdriving Bronko along the coastline rocks. It feels nice to feel the salty wind on your skin while watching the glittery sea, you know?â
âYep, okay, Iâm deeply moved now!â
I guess Sword has started to feel all excited too now.
ïŒ
First off, the guild. By now itâd become a standard routine for a guild to become noisy once we named ourselves. And the guildmaster immediately showing up was a common occurrence too.
Behind us,
âThat hero?â
âEh? Ah, right, you donât know him, do you? Heâs a hero becauseâŠ,â someone started to explain.
But still, I wasnât the only one! In the end, thereâs people who donât know about Sword being a hero. Just like me!
We were led to the guildmasterâs room and shown the pending requests.
âIsnât there something like a leviathan around? Itâd be quite thrilling! A giant squid would be nice too! Squids taste great!â
The guildmaster became flabbergasted upon my remark.
âSorry tâtell, but neither of âem can be found here. âŠHow about this here? Itâs somethinâ similar.â
He held out a request form.
By the way, the guildmaster of Keyha was sunburned and his appearance totally screamed âMan of the Sea.â
âHmm! I see, I see!â
âMmh? You like it?â Sword asked.
âThis is tasty too.â
ââYou plan to eat (tâeat) it!?ââ
The two men cried out in harmony.
I mean, a Darking Octopus is an octopus that shoots out ink, no?
âOctopus is all about Takowasa! âŠGah, I donât have any wasabi, though⊠Oh well, itâs also delicious when roasted or fried. Iâll make a superb dish out of it, so you should try it as well. Octopus eggs are great too, but I wonder whether weâll be able to find any.â
The guildmaster stared at me with a blank look and his mouth agape. Is the jinx that otherworld inhabitants donât eat octopus really true? Sword seems to be fine with it, though.
âI see. Itâs incredibly grotesque, but your sayinâ its tasty, eh? âŠYou seriously eat ânythinâ, donât you?â
âI donât eat bugs, you know?â
âFigures. Itâd make no sense for you to eat âem, seeinâ how much you dote on them.â
He told me, but Iâm not doting on them!
