The Great Sea Serpent Zaratopu
* * *
“Underling……?”
“I’m a traveler. Emi Rune……”
“No, no, no…… wait, wait, wait……”
While wriggling its huge body and shining its unexpectedly round and cute eyes, the Great Sea Serpent who introduced itself as Zaratopu is staring at .
What is this developnt?
I’m just confused.
“You were trying to eat . But now you want to be my underling? Strange.”
“You opened your mouth and approached.”
“……?”
That thing on my waist?
What I have tied around my waist is……
“In other words, dried fish……?”
Zaratopu let out a cheerful “Pyurururu” cry and continued its 【Telepathy】.
Ah, yeah, I suppose that’s true.
Ignoring my ongoing confusion, Zaratopu dreamily moistens its eyes as if recalling the taste at that ti, and wriggles again.
Saying that, Zaratopu bowed its head.
Extra-sama said that with a sigh after hearing Zaratopu’s story.
Misunderstanding?
Yeah.
Ah, I see.
“Hey, you. How much dried fish are you getting from the villagers?”
……Aren’t the villagers pushing themselves quite a bit for this?
“…………”
I put my hand on my chin and thought.
I like Panemo Village.
I don’t approve of the villagers suffering because of this stupid situation.
On the other hand, the giant idiot in front of , the root cause, has started to admire for so reason and wants to beco my underling……
What the heck is an underling?
Even if a marine creature becos the underling of a land creature, we can’t act together, right……
And I…… am hungry.
“Alright, I got it.”
“I’ll kill you and eat you. That solves everything.”
I used both hands of my 【Black Arms】 to grab Zaratopu’s neck.
If I can’t beat it to death, I’ll strangle it!
However, Zaratopu started resisting by secreting so slimy body fluid from its entire body!
Ugh…… Its body is slippery like an eel, and I can’t keep my grip on it!
After a few minutes of struggle, Zaratopu eventually escaped into the sea.
But even after doing this, it still won’t leave alone.
Timidly poking its face out of the sea, Zaratopu stares at .
And after saying that, Zaratopu placed the tip of its long, long body…… its flattened tail on top of the cape.
“Pyuruuuuu!!”
Zaratopu let out another shout, putting its spirit into it.
Then Zaratopu’s tail…… naturally severed itself!
The tail thrashes about on land, flapping and flapping!
This is…… autotomy!?
I don’t know about sea serpents, but Great Sea Serpents do, I suppose.
In fact, it just did it right in front of us.
It feeds its own kind too……
Zaratopu’s eyes were still sparkling as it spoke, but around the part where it ntioned its sister-in-law and childhood friend, the sparkle in its eyes seed to cloud a little.
This guy……
This guy must have had various hardships within its group……
Its overly humble attitude may also be related to that.
I don’t want to see a romantic cody about Great Sea Serpents……
Saying that, despite almost being killed by , Zaratopu approached again without caution and wriggled happily.
If it gets this close, I could probably sever its neck using 【Great Mantis】.
“…………”
Zaratopu’s innocently shining eyes.
Seeing that, I lowered my prepared right hand powerlessly and sighed.
……On this day, I encountered a magical beast that I couldn’t kill for the first ti.
