My House Is a Magic Power Spot ~Just by Living There I Become the Strongest in the World~

Chapter 222: Results of the First Cast

Before the morning sun rose.

Hesty and I were ready with the rod and line on a rock nearby.

…….now, I did modify it a bit, but let’s see what I can get.

Compared to yesterday I had made the line longer and the lure larger.

Since I made the lure heavier I would be able to fish deeper in.

I’d cast it out once and it felt good.

…un, I think it’ll be a good day today.

I tested the rod and the line, then opened the thermos Sakura had given me and poured out some tea.

It was just the right temperature.

「Here you go Hesty.」

「n, thank you.」

I drank my tea with Hesty while letting the fishing line dangle in the water.

「Ahh, this kind of leisure time is great.」

「That’s true.」

It was morning so the air was clear with a cool breeze.

Add to that the sound of the water quietly lapping…it was extremely relaxing.

Even without sleeping I could feel my body and mind being recovering.

This was a feeling you couldn’t experience when the sun was high in the sky.

Those thoughts flowed through my mind when my fishing line jolted.

「Oh, first bite of the day.」

I could feel a strong pull from the line.

The tip of the rid started to bend strongly.

Seems like I’d gotten a big one.

「n, congratulations.」

「It’s a bit too early for congratulations. I still have to pull it up.」

If I let my guard down it could escape, I’d be sad then.

The rod was bending quite a lot as well……

……I should take things nice and steady.

I carefully started to pull the line in.

After several seconds I could see the silhouette of the creature I had hooked.

「Looks like it’s a heavy one. I’m gonna pull up in one go……One, two….!」

I yanked the rod and line up in one breath, pulling up my prey.

The result being I fished up…..

「H-hi~ Daichi-san….Hesty. Good Morning.」

「…The second day in a row I caught a Dragon King instead of a fish.」

I ended up fishing Ramiyuros out of the water.

It was more like I had entangled her.

「Why did you get caught in my fishing line Ramiyuros? You should be sleeping in your cottage right?」

I asked and Ramiyuros bashfully laughed while still tangled up.

「The beach was so cool and comfy I fell asleep~. It looks like at some point the waves washed me away. Since I can breathe underwater I didn’t really mind, but out of nowhere a string with incredible magic power appeared and I reached out to it, but ended up getting entangled.」

I looked and saw both her hands and hips were also tangled up which allowed me to lift her up all at once.

I understood how I ended up catching a Dragon King now.

But she was too careless in many ways.

「Uuu, I’m sorry~」

「You don’t really need to apologize but….you’re really looking quite disordered.」

The string had caught and caused her swimsuit to slip.

It was already at the level it could fall off.

「I-I thought it’d be easier to remove my swimsuit if I just left it……i-it’s a bit embarrassing.」

Ramiyuros said while blushing. It was already too late to act embarrassed.

「If you’re going to be embarrassed by it later, then don’t sleep like that…….I’ll take off the string so go back to the cottage and sleep.」

「U-un, I’ll do that~」

Then, I released her from her bonds and she hurriedly set off for the cottage.

「Somehow, I feel sorry? One of my kind, causes such trouble.」

As we watched her run away, Hesty dropped her shoulders and said those words.

It seems she didn’t expect this as well.

「Well….uh…don’t worry about it.」

I had fished up incredible things three days in a row, but at least the issue was solved for now.

I pulled myself together and continued.
