Neighbors in forbidden land

"So, go catch some fish."

So fish can be eaten?

Yimi doesn't drink sea water but eats fish in the sea... It's really strange, human beings.

"Xiao Hei, your reaction is very slow...Since we don't lack water, ensuring food is the most important issue." Yimi took a few sips of water with his hands, and then simply wiped his face with water hands and feet.

"I was so confused by that monster before, so I still have to go back to the beach."

Although Yimi's steps are lighter than before, but now... I looked up, and the sun like a flame is now slowly setting down along the invisible track in the blue sky, which means that noon has passed, In a few hours, the sun will disappear on the other side of the horizon, and this land will once again usher in a dark night that cannot be seen.

"It's late...it's already past noon, it really takes a lot of time to go back to the cave from here...um..." Yimi supported his right arm with his left hand, thought for a while, then shook his hand, and changed into a pair of With a confused expression, "Huh? So I didn't go back to the cave last night... It's not as cold as I thought. I thought only the palace was so warm?"

"So there is no problem even if you don't go back to the cave. Living in the wild is easier than I imagined."

"So let's go to the beach? Xiao Hei, is the direction of my right hand the direction of the sea?"

"Then just walk faster, Xiao Hei, do you have to keep up?"

There is no problem at all if you want to keep up with Yimi.

But Yimi is indeed taking bigger steps towards the south than before.

"Oh... ouch!"

Yimi followed my instructions and constantly adjusted the route forward.

As a result, his left foot tripped over his right foot and fell to the ground.

"It hurts, it hurts..." Yimi, who got up with his left hand, stretched out his right hand and rubbed his fallen leg, "I'm fine, I'm fine... don't drop the shell..."

The expression on Yimi's face was slightly distorted, but she quickly picked up the shell she was holding in her hand and slowly got up.

"Next time, Xiao Hei, can you show me the way?"

"I said that if you make it clear, you will make it clear, do you understand?"

As a result, Yimi's speed slowed down because of a fall.

"By the way...Xiao Hei, can you catch fish?"

"Should? Haven't you caught it?" Yimi put on an unbelievable expression.

Tried it once.

I originally thought that my speed in the sea was not too slow.

As a result, those fish can always slip through the gap between my claws.

I thought it was a hit, but in fact it didn't hit at all.

Occasionally, what was scratched by the claws directly turned into blood-red minced meat.

I can't get it back at all... If only those fish were as big as Behemoth, I don't want to catch Mr. Whale.

And those as big as Bechymos... It seems that they are not fish, but monsters, right?

"So...Xiao Hei, you've been eating that Bessie's meat all along?" Yimi had a terrified expression.

No no no no I never eat...

"Being able to eat that meat for so many years...Xiao Hei, you are really... so amazing." For some reason, the corners of Yimi's mouth twitched, showing an expression of not knowing whether he was laughing or scared.

"Are you still thinking about this..."

I don't know why, but I just don't want to admit that I am inferior to that human being that I haven't met yet.

During the exchange, we bypassed the mountain peak where I used to keep my diary, watched Yimi approaching the sea step by step, and the sun circled from above our heads to our right side following our steps.

It's getting dark...

but.

If the last time was a coincidence.

So what is it this time.

I saw it.

Right off the coast.

There is a blue-black figure that almost blends with the sea water.

It's that monster fish.

This time she was just swimming in the shallow sea, her swaying silver-white tail fin sparkling on the sea surface.

Simply incredible.

Although I don't have any special ideas, why would she dare to approach here?

A monster that doesn't fear me has to be at the same level as a dragon, but why isn't she afraid?

If one moment I thought she just didn't see me, then the next moment, her behavior was beyond my comprehension.

She saw me.

Obviously, those white eyes were facing in this direction.

But she didn't run away like other monsters.

Instead, he swam a little closer to the beach?

Eh?

Without knowing it, Yimi had already set foot on the beach, and then quickened her pace.

"Is there nothing else on the beach, Xiao Hei?"

"What's the matter, Xiao Hei? Although you are usually dumbfounded, your answer is even more dumbfounded now?"

"Ah?" After hearing what I said, Yimi's first reaction was to check whether the hem of her cloak was covering her body tightly, and then she blushed slightly and said angrily, "Xiao Hei, you'd better explain to me clearly Did you see something you shouldn't have seen? Huh?"

"Fish? Is it strange for fish to swim to the seashore?"

"I saw it too—ah..." Yimi had a sudden understanding expression, and then squeezed out a strange smile, "She still dares to come, just in time, I haven't avenged the slap I got last time... ..."

Saying that, Yimi quickened her pace and walked aggressively towards the beach.

As a result, I watched Yimi rush towards the sea, and the monster fish also floated its head out of the water, and swam towards Yimi wagging its tail.

And I also saw, under her fangs, biting a gray-white fish smaller than her body, about thirty centimeters long. "Die you!"

"Gollum, Gollum. (Human, here you are)"

"Xiao Hei? What's the matter?" Yimi who heard my voice stopped hurriedly, "Is there something in front?"

"Her?" Yimi asked me back with some doubts, and then looked forward as if she couldn't believe it, "You mean...the monster?"

"Then how do you know, little black?"

Oops.

got used to.

Because it was so natural to listen to Yimi and the monster fish at the same time, so I naturally felt that Yimi could understand her too!

"Xiao Hei, are you... are you kidding me?"

"Gulu, Gululu? (Human. Huh? Human?)" As a result, the monster fish spat out strings of bubbles while talking...

Why can't I believe this...

"...I can only hear gurgles..."

But Yimi didn't doubt it?

May be!

Although Yimi couldn't see me, she still waved her claws, but the monster fish didn't have the slightest sense of fear, it was still ups and downs, raised her mouth, and sent the fish to Yimi's direction .

"Really..." Yimi approached the beach in doubt, and stepped his feet into the sea water carefully. After the sea water covered his feet, Yimi let out a "his~ so cool", then turned his head slightly and asked me , "Where is she?"

"Front?"

"It's a bit unbelievable..." Although Yimi said this, she still bent down slowly, her long hair hanging down naturally, like a pale orange river falling into the sea, creating countless ripples.

Yimi held out his hand hesitantly, and the monster fish quickly swam to Yimi's hand, and handed the fish to Yimi's hand with his mouth.

"Hey...really..." Yimi held the fish with both hands, and slowly straightened up, "It's so slippery..."

"Gurrrrrrr. (Hey heh.)"

"Xiao Hei, you even know she's happy..."

Yimi sighed lightly, revealing a wry smile.

Of course I know.

I watched the monster fish swimming around in the shallow sea near Yimi's feet, wagging its silvery white tail.

Because... she and I are the same.
