Chapter 193: Hooked~The Second
A while after catching the glittery golden fish……
「Ah, by the way Dianeia. I went with the flow and had you start fishing, but was that ok?」
She had been searching for me when she arrived.
I wondered if she had something she needed.
「Ahh, no, that’s not it. I was searching for you to give you this.」
She said as she continued moving the fishing line in the water. She pulled out a piece of paper and handed it over.
I took a look at it.
「This is……a sketch of the area?」
「Yes. The beach, premises, and facilities are marked down. You can use them freely, but if you didn’t know what or where they were it’d be troublesome.」
「Oh, thanks it’s helpful.」
I didn’t have a clear idea of what I wanted to do, but now with a clear idea of what I could do it made it easier.
「Also if you want to buy something there is a shop on the premises so go ahead and make use of whatever you need. If you need a new swimsuit or something you can go there.」
「I see…well I received quite a few swimsuits from Anne so there’s no issue with that……it’s a little late but I see you’ve changed outfits Dianeia.」
At first my excitement over catching my first fish caused me to ignore it, but Dianeia was wearing a very pretty swimsuit.
It was a bikini type that showed off her body line, but I thought the orange swimsuit really suited her tight body.
I was thinking that when……
「I-if you stare so much I’ll get embarrassed……h-how is it? It shouldn’t be too flashy right?」
Dianeia said shyly as she blushed.
Are you too embarrassed or do you want me to look more? I don’t get it but…
「Yeah, I think it’s cute. I don’t have great aesthetic sense, but I can tell that.」
The moment I said that Dianeia’s cheeks blushed a fiery red.
「R-really!? Thank you!」
Dianeia said joyfully raising both her hands and gripped them into fists as she got closer.
However, since she suddenly did that with the fishing rod in her hand……
「Ah, hey the lure’s flying it’s dangerous.」
「Eh?」
As Dianeia spoke in confusion the lure flew up and latched to the back of her swimsuit catching it.
The feeling of something suddenly hooking at her back made her jerk……then the lure vigorously……
「Ah」
Carried a portion of Dianeia’s swimsuit away….
「Wa Waaaaa! My swimsuit!」
Dianeia panicked and hid her chest.
I did see them jiggle down…..but she hid them before I saw the most important part.
「……….why did you catch yourself….」
Well, in the past I caught my own ear and clothes when I first fished.
However, this is the first time I’ve seen someone so magnificently catch their own swimsuit.
In fact, it looks like our fishing session’s second catch of the day was a princess’s swimsuit….that was quite something…
「U, uuuu, this is the first time something like this happened to me. E-even though I used magic to keep my clothes from having a mishap….」
「Eh? There’s magic like that?」
「Y-yeah, it’s an application of protection magic. You can use a slight amount of magic so that you can move as much as you please. With it, no matter how you move your equipment won’t come off. It’s magic with both practical and battle utililty.」
Oh, I see. That magic wasn’t just for swimsuits.
It’s magic that certainly has merit preventing you from losing your equipment.
「But, why did it come off even though you were using the magic?」
I looked up at the sky.
The lure was floating up there with the orange swimsuit acting as a kite. It peacefully flapped in the wind.
「Th-the lure has too much magic that it pierced the thin defensive layer!」
「Oh…..I made it out of dragon scale…」
Well, huh next time I need to be more cautious what I use.
…….using it for a hook is quite dangerous.
As I thought that I grabbed the lure and removed the swimsuit. I handed it back to Dianeia.
「Here. I’ll turn away so you can put it on.」
「Uu…..sorry.」
「No, there wasn’t any real harm. It’s fine, I learned some new things as well.」
When using my lure I need to take care.
After all, it’s not like this fishing equipment was for catching swimsuits, it wouldn’t do so either.
I’d just have to be more cautious.
