That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Light Novel, Chapter 267

Chapter 267

I was observing to get a grasp of the collecting group’s personalities but it seems like Mondo-kun isn’t really valued highly .

Excluding me, it seems he has the lowest grades among the 4 .

However, it didn’t seem like he was hated or anything . Rather, he felt like the mood maker of the group .

It might be because of Mondo-kun that this group doesn’t seem anxious .

Although Mondo-kun might not be willing to be made fun of, it definitely is making the rest feel less stressed .

“E-even though you say that, I have things I am good at too, alright? I might be lacking stamina but my explosive power is above average, you know?”

“Stuupid . Being able to continue fights for long is the most important-even the instructor was saying that, remember?”

George sneered at Mondo-kun’s excuse .

Certainly, if he gets hungry and laments easily, you can’t really expect him to hold his fights for long . But still, like he says, he might shine in power .

At the very least, it is a big plus point that his resistance is high .

It seems like his body can resist neurotoxins so if he trains that part, he might have an interesting growth .

“Well, what are we going to do?”

A while after going into the forest, George gathered the group mates and asked .

George was this group’s leader .

“Shall we search for a water place first?”

“Right~ the instructors were saying that too . Securing water is of utmost importance . I can see water coming into the forest from the mountains so let’s head there~”

Marsha answered and Aina agreed .

And so, we started walking towards the water place-in other words, the river .

◇◇◇

“Hyaahha-! Fishing here is the best~!”

The one who raised that excited voice was, me .

I was having a really good time fishing .

About how it got like this-

We secured water and used magic to see if it was drinkable .

It had slight toxins and parasitic magical insects but was perfectly dealt with boiling magic .

George and the other 3 are from NNU Magic and Science Investigation Academy and so they are a bit weak at battle magic . But on the other hand, it seems they were doing research to improve lifestyle magic and so surprisingly enough, we were able to procure water quite efficiently .

We could bring water with magic too but it’s always better to have another supply .

We were lucky to secure water .

Moreover,

“Alright, perfect!”

Marsha grinned .

Who would have thought, this Marsha girl is a user of

while still being a 4th year .

This is lesser version of

and can only increase the capacity . However, space-type magic are extremely difficult so being able to use even this is praiseworthy .

When compared to

which is already developed as techniques, this

is much harder as it’s still being researched .

Even just this proves that this Marsha girl has potential .

George and Mondo frantically scooped up the water and Aina purified it with magic .

And Marsha kept on putting purified water into the ordinary survival flasks .

That had good coordination considering how much they were complaining .

And, as for me-

“Ah, you can’t use magic, right, Satoru-kun? You don’t seem like you have much stamina either so could you search this area for any edible food?”

George told me .

By this area, he meant as far as their eyes could see .

I am not a kid so I don’t plan on going away alone anyway but…

It seems like from their eyes, I am still quite young .

What is this treatment? I am pretty sure I have set my appearance as a 15 year old .

But either way, it’s no use complaining so I decided to do what I could .

—As such, I attached a string to a tree branch and made a simple fishing tackle .

At times like this, clothes with threads come in handy . I am producing the strings by my own but this way I can easily deceive them .

As for the bait, I used the insects under the waterside rocks .

Insects which come up in rooms are enemies, a target for annihilation, a subject for hatred but-it’s weird how I can go around searching for insects myself in places like these .

I even laid bare the trap which the instructors gave us in case a harmful monster came up . And then I used it as a net to put the fish I catch in .

My preparations are perfect .

And like this, I prepared the tools and bait and started fishing .

“What are you doing?”

Marsha asked .

It seems like their job of collecting water is done .

When I looked at the other 3, I found them lying down, exhausted .

Their stamina and mana probably ran out .

“Fishing . I was wondering if I could catch a few fishes and have them for dinner . ”

I had already caught about 30 .

Seems like this fishing place is really good as no one else has fished here before .

It’s my own personal record-catching 20 fishes in an hour .

“Fishing? Sounds interesting! Can I do it too?”

She asked with glittering eyes so I handed over the tools and showed her the basics .

It seems Marsha had never gone fishing before and was very interested .

After teaching her for a while, I told her to try it herself and she had immediately gotten enthusiastic about it .

She’s quite something considering that the other 3 are exhausted and she is fine despite the fact that she used the most mana .

While giving her advice, I started making a second fishing rod-

Or I wanted to but…

By the time I was finished, Aina came by and by the time I had finished the 3rd one, George came and participated too .

At the end, even Mondo wanted to fish so the total amount of fish I caught that day was stopped at 33 .

But still, not only did we secure water, the total amount of fish we caught was 104 .

One could say this is more than enough .

But while returning, Marsha used

on the whole net and Aina used weight limit magic on it . Then George and Mondo did the physical labor of carrying it . I have decided to not think about how all the fish we caught would have gone to waste if they hadn’t done all that .

All’s well that ends well .

And like this, the first day of harvesting in the forest had come to an end .
