#358

One.
It was just that pair.

A dad who takes her daughter fishing, who hates it.
Even when she arrives, her daughter complains that it is not fun.
My dad was so excited that he didn’t even care about that.

It is a well-known fact that Gehenna’s natural landscape remains untouched.
In particular, there was a lot of meat along the river, probably because these uninhabited areas are often untouched by human hands.
It’s not a joke, it was to the point that despite Siwoo’s clumsy fishing, a bite came almost every 5 minutes.

The reason for Siwoo’s happiness did not stop there.
Occasionally, there was good news.

Originally, it came with the idea of ​​catching freshwater fish, but it just happened to be the season when salmon, a regressive fish, climbed up the river to lay eggs in the upper reaches.

Thanks to that, the thick sockeye salmon, whose body has not yet been stained red, bite the blind lure every time.
The resilient taste of a fishing rod that bends heavily.
You can feel the strong vitality at your fingertips every time you wind the reel.
Seeing the 50cm salmon floating on the surface of the water like a water swallow, I immediately thought that this is a fishing spot.

When I did it before, I was fishing all day long wondering how many to catch, but I’ve already caught two.
Both of them were life renewals.

“Wow, that’s crazy. Are you really not?”
“Because I am.”
“Lady Diana! Look at this. It’s really big!”

Siwoo proudly held up her salmon, which fluttered heavily, to Diana.
It’s just as fun even if it flaps its tail and splashes river water on its cheeks.
Diana, who was sitting at a distance, dissatisfied, looked at Siwoo with a slightly puzzled expression.

Salmon.
I’ve eaten it many times, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it alive and flapping like that.
In addition, the expression on his face as he reeled up the bendy fishing rod looked so excited that it made Diana curious for some reason.

What the heck is fishing so you love it so much?
Question arises.
By the time we got to this point, efficient energy management was lacking anyway.
Wouldn’t it be better to do it yourself once in a while rather than sitting there?

“Really, just do it once. It will be a lot more fun than you think.”
“Only once.”

Diana took off her shoes, holding a fishing rod beside her.
As you dip your feet into the water that shines in a beautiful color, chicken meat tingles on your skin along with the ice-like coldness.

“What did you say?”
“It is not difficult. You don’t have to throw it too far, and you can’t throw it too close. Do you have this part here? You can grab it, throw it around, and then do it with the feeling of letting a fishing hook float in the current.”

Whether you listen to the explanation or watch him do it, it doesn’t seem too difficult.

“Like this?”

Diana took the fishing rod that Siu had properly adjusted and tossed the line.
Since her depth is shallow, she is a fast-flowing fishing line with a pretty strong current.

“Yes, like that. If you want to go too far, simply rewind the rope and repeat.”
“There is nothing wrong.”
“Yes.”

It was as easy as she looked.
It looked as if he would be able to catch a big fish like he did at any moment.

“It is difficult if the points overlap, so I will stay away. If you’re not lucky, the strings might get tangled.”

After saying that, Siwoo continued fishing with a distance of 15m.
Diana watched him like that and threw the line again.
A fishing hook that flows slowly.

Even though I was drifting away, I didn’t feel anything, so I wind up the line again.
Throw
It flows.
Rewind the line
Throw
It flows.
Rewind the line throw It flows. Rewind the line throw flows….

“…….”

Diana’s fishing rod, which has been tried several times, but there is no news.
On the other side.

“Five! Come! I’m here!”
“Hey~ how many centimeters is this?”
“This guy is no ordinary salmon! But no doubt! Right away!”

Diana saw the salmon piled up next to her and looked ahead again.

– Ripple ripple

“…….”

You can see a fishing line floating along the river that flows without harry.
Diana quietly coiled her line and studied the hook.
Didn’t he give you a strange fishing rod?
But the lure, weight, and hook are the same as he showed in his demonstration.

“Right! You are here!”
Haha!”
“There is more meat than water!”

Siwoo who looks very excited and Diana who is strangely upset.
If she had just gone fishing by herself, she would have said, ‘Aww, that’s not fun and annoying’ and she would have stopped.
However, while she was catching fish by her side, seeing the empty fishing net, she secretly felt a desire to compete.

Diana thought about it before approaching Siwoo.

“Excuse me.”
“Yes? Yes. Oh, did you catch a lot?”
“… No, change seats. Because it’s a good seat, it seems like it’s a good place to be.”
“Maybe?”

Siu meekly changed his seat.
Fishing started again.

It must have been a good spot because he was standing here and catching fish without a break.
It’s like a fishing rod.
There doesn’t seem to be any special instructions.
Now Diana is excited at the thought of catching salmon to her heart’s content.

“Hey, it works well here too!”
“Salmon for dinner tonight!”
“What kind of fish is this?”

And the situation repeats itself over and over again.
When he actually changed seats, Siwoo continued to catch fish in a place where Diana hadn’t even gotten a bite.
Diana, on the other hand, does not fish, but only continues her exercise of getting water on the lure.

“…….”

Diana’s expression calmed down and she felt a surge of anger.
Her bubbling inside boils.
It wasn’t intentional, but I could feel that he was having fun from the side.

“Excuse me!”

Diana summoned Siu, who had just caught a salmon the size of her forearm.

“It came out because I decided to work outside. Please take care of me too.”
“Ah, it was. Sorry. Because I’m so excited.”
“Tell me some tricks.”
“Yeah, look.”

Siwoo gave a more detailed explanation once again, but that seemed to be the case for Diana.
I even borrowed Siwoo’s fishing rod, wondering if it was just luck.
Still, the results remain.
When I saw Diana, who was surprisingly absurd, I thought, ‘Huh? Why are you like this?”

“Half an hour has already passed. I’ll throw it one more time and if I don’t catch it, I’ll go back.”
“I see.”

When Diana saw Siwoo responding lukewarmly, as if regretting it, she quickly threw the line.
A stream that flows slowly.
Still no bite
The moment I was about to let out a sigh, thinking that this time would be no different.

“Uh?”

Come.
Intense bite.
I could feel the intense power that anyone would think a fish had bitten.
Diana grabbed hold of the fishing pole that she almost missed.

“I asked!”
“Hey, what do I do now? What should I do?”

She didn’t expect it at all, but Diana widened her eyes at the sudden situation.
Even at a glance, the moment Siwoo, who is excited by her magnificent bite, tries to teach her by her side….
It was like a cartoon scene.

“Huh!!”

Diana, who had been holding on to the tightly bent fishing rod, was dragged away with her shrieking scream.
The current is so strong that it is difficult to balance even in shallow water.
Diana fell to the surface of her water as if she were diving under the force of her pulling the fishing pole with such force as to break it.

-With a splash!

Intense splash.
Siwoo threw her body belatedly and held Diana’s body with her ribbon and held the fishing rod with her one hand.

2.
Diana pulled up in her blanket, sitting at her bonfire beside her cot.
Her bite, which soaked her clothes and hair, was magically blown away, but maintaining her body temperature is important.

“…….”
“Hey, are you okay?”

In less than an hour, Diana, who was attacked one after another by her salmon, was her own low pressure.
Her expression is dark, as if the core of a storm is hovering over her head.

Since they caught almost 30 salmon today, Siu, who had released all but one for dinner, glanced at her.

Actually, this was Trouble 2, which was unexpected.

So far, only forearm-sized sockeye salmon and rare rainbow trout have been caught, so I thought there would be only two types.

However, the salmon that cast the water ghost on Diana was a king salmon with a maximum length of 1.5m and a maximum weight of 60kg.
A salmon as heavy as her own body pulled the fishing rod, so it was no wonder that Diana, who was not paying attention, was caught instead of her.

“…….”
“Still, the one Diana-sama caught is the biggest.”

Technically speaking, the salmon caught Diana and Siu caught both Diana and her salmon….
Think about her feelings and wrap it up as much as possible.

“Look at this! It is this big.”

The size exceeds 1M even if you look roughly.
She held up today’s dinner menu in front of Diana, who was exhausted and fluttering weakly.

“It’s big.”

Diana, who was still looking at the salmon with a sullen face, stood up from her seat.

“Go back now. More than two hours have passed.”

Fishing was more fun than I thought, and I wanted to attract Diana and enjoy it until this evening, but things turned out this way, so there was no choice.
I will come again next time
I packed the things I had unpacked, put my backpack back on, and wrapped the salmon with a ribbon and put it roughly on my shoulder.

It’s good to go back by moving the coordinates, but showing this beautiful natural scenery is part of outdoor activities.
She asked Diana, who still looked low-pressure as they strolled through the hills.

“Miss.”
“Why.”
“I have a question, can I ask it?”
“Do it.”

I was curious before.
She hates being bothered by people and may be reluctant to go out, but Diana is severe.
‘Why are you so lazy?’ She couldn’t ask.

“What I do is not laziness.”
“Yes?”
“A little higher level…. The status quo bias, for example.”

Wanting to know what she was talking about, she sneaked a glance at her profile, then met Diana’s expressionless eyes as usual.

“My mother and the people too. Laziness has been branded as a sin called sloth, but this tendency is very important throughout human development.”
“…….”
“Isn’t the development of science and magic for the sake of convenience also stemming from the thought, ‘Oh, that’s annoying’?”

I wanted to answer properly, but I heard something serious.

“So don’t encourage me to go around and do a location board. I will tell you well.”
“That is troublesome. I have an appointment with the Count.”
“Sheesh.”

Anyway, today’s class is over.
I took Diana and returned to her mansion.
As he entered the mansion through the front gate, he saw Count Ye Sod in the distance, so Siwoo quietly offered Diana her salmon.

“Can you listen for a minute?”
“Eh, why all of a sudden… ! Ooh, it’s heavy… !”

Diana staggered and stared at Siwoo as the weight of the salmon was loaded.
At that time, the Count, who found Diana in the distance, came running with quick steps.

“My daughter… ! How have you been?”

It was only then that Diana seemed to understand Siu’s intentions.
Siwoo smiled and pushed her back.

“You should go and brag.”

Diana’s annoyed expression faded away and she quickly looked away.
With a small nod of her head, she walked over to Count Yesod, shuffling a large salmon.

“I’m back.”
“Oh my! Did my daughter catch this?”
“… Yes.”
“That’s great~ Let’s take a picture right away, mom will bring the camera!”

Seeing Count Yesod stroking Diana’s hair, hugging her, and praising her storm, Siwoo thought that today was also worthwhile.
