Book 2: Chapter 6: Part 2

Heres a chapter today, enjoy~

Part 2

Now that weve finally arrived at the river, but

What should we do?

Kaede and I arrived at the river, but we were at a loss as to what to do. Since its school-owned land, the path to the river is correctly marked on the map, so it feels like a very big campground.

I looked at the fishing rod in my hand and looked for a place where I could fish, but

Its so crowded.

Yeah, thats true.

Since everyone comes to the river for fish, it can be a bit tough. I dont know much about it, but it looks like the fishing line might get tangled up or something.

While I was looking around, Kaede asked me.

What should we do? At this rate its going to be hard to fish now, should we just help Rin-chan and Akira-kun?

Well

I casually or rather, almost unconsciously activated my [Presence Detection] skill and searched for a less popular place.

Hmm?

I could sense the presence of people, but apart from that, I could also sense the presence of fish. Of course, there were fish in the area where everyone was fishing, but there was another area where many fish were found as well.

I immediately turned my gaze in that direction and saw that the water was rather shallow and not a good place to fish. Hmm there are so many fish, but its hard to catch them No, wait. I think I can grab it with my hands, cant I? Yeah, I think thats it.

I suddenly thought about that, and suddenly wanted to try it out, so I had a word with Kaede.

Theres something I want to try out, so can we meet up with Rin and Akira afterwards?

Eh? I dont mind that, but what are you going to do?

Watch this.

I pulled up my trousers cuffs and walked into the river.

Y-Yuuya-kun! What are you doing?

Kaede shouted in surprise at my actions. In response to her voice, the surrounding students also turn their gazes towards us.

Ooh, I didnt expect to get so many gazes, but w-well, thats okay, Ill just concentrate on the fish for now. I turn my attention to the fish in front of me, or rather, around me.

Yeah, As I thought, I can grab them with my hands.

Even if Im considering the resistance of the water, if I think about the movement of the S-class monsters and the like, it will be perfectly fine. If I understand that, its easy to put it into action.

Although the moment I entered the river and Kaedes words drew attention and made the fish wary of me, I activated the skill [Assimilation]. Normally, it shouldnt be effective if the opponent has found me, but this isnt another world, its Earth.

Because the monsters of the other world are more sensitive to presence than the creatures of this Earth, once they find me, my skills will not work, but the creatures of this Earth are less vigilant than the monsters in the other world. No, its not just vigilance but a sixth sense? The monsters in the different world probably have that.

Anyway, the moment I activated the skill [Assimilation], Kaede and the others, who had been watching me until now screamed in surprise.

H-huh? Wheres Yuuya-kun?

W-wasnt he in there just now?

Where did he go?

Its not just Kaede and the others who are surprised, but the fishes as well, and the fishes panicked for a moment as my presence disappeared, but eventually, they began to calm down as they could no longer sense my presence.

I didnt miss the opportunity to take advantage of that calmness and set my sights on a fish.

Fuuh!

I plunged my right arm into the water and grabbed a fish that was swimming near me in one fluid motion. The water was quiet at the moment I plunged my arm into the water and pulled it out, and it was only for a moment.

I looked at the fish and nodded to myself.

Yep, I knew it was going to be okay.

Whooaaaaa!

Eeehh!?

I was surprised by the sudden cheers that rose up. And when I turned my gaze in the voices direction, the other students who had been looking at me earlier were making a lot of noise.

Did you see that! He caught a fish with his hand!

No, I know he caught it, but I didnt see his hand because it was too fleeting!

Or rather, didnt he just disappear before?

Its like he really just showed up with a fish in his hand when I realized

Thats no longer a humans work whats going on?

I break out in a cold sweat at the unexpected reaction.

Was it such an out-of-human move? I thought I caught the fish quickly, but well, it seems the fact that Ive disappeared seems to be more of a surprise than the movement when I caught the fish.

As I was thinking about that, Kaede came running up to me excitedly.

T-thats awesome, Yuuya-kun! I cant believe you caught a fish with your hand

Ah-ahahaha I just wondered if I could do it somehow, and I did.

Just like at the previous P.E. class, Yuuya-kun has high specs in general.

I-I wonder?

Well, if they remember what I did in the P.E class, Im sure theyll understand that my physical abilities are unusually high.

For now, it seems like I can secure the fish, so Ill just catch them all at once. Im sorry, but Im going to put the caught fish in a bucket, so Kaede, can you watch over it?

Yeah, I understand!

Once I got Kaedes approval, I headed to the river to catch fish again. By the way, I have confirmed that the fish can be eaten with the [Appraisal] skill, so there should be no problem.

Ah, once we meet up with Rin and Akira-kun, I guess Ill check everything with [Appraisal] before showing it to the teacher.  That way, we could be sure that we can eat them safely.

While I was thinking this and that, many students came to the shallows to try to catch fish with their bare hands, just like me, but they were struggling. I caught more and more fish while they were struggling, and finally, I succeeded in catching eight.

Welcome back! So howd it go over there?

When we return to the tent location, we find Rin greeting us cheerfully and Akira collapsing down with his butt sticking out. But What happened to Akira?

I managed to catch the fish somehow.

Listen, Rin-chan! Yuuya-kun is incredible, you know? He caught all these fish with his hands!

With hands? Sigh~ just like in the P.E class the other day, youre more active than you look, huh

Hmm?

Well, I already loved exercise even when I was fat! And I wouldnt have looked like someone who loved that no matter how hard I tried. I dont know now for sure.

Anyway, whats going on with Akira?

Huh? Aah you can leave that guy alone.

So cruel! You have worked me around so hard!

Ah, youre still alive.

Akira, who got up vigorously, began to talk about what the situation was like while feeling dizzy.

it was fine at first. We were gathering mushrooms and wild plants and stuff like that, even though we werent used to it. But you know what? Before long, I found myself being forced to look at wild plants growing on steep cliffs, or foretaste the mushrooms I wasnt familiar with. I could be a bear bait as well!

Foretaste it? The teacher told us not to eat it before showing it to her! And theres a bear in here? This place is dangerous!

You did the survival thing more than I expected, dude! I was surprised, and Akira gave me a thumbs up with a powerless smile.

D-dont worry about it. If it makes you guys smile its not a problem.

Its a big problem, you know!

Especially about the bear! What are we going to do about it? I briefly examined the condition of Akiras body with [Appraisal], but no poison was detected, so it seemed to be fine. Seriously, its a relief

Well then, can you show me what you picked, too?

Yeah, of course, I dont mind.

With Rins approval, I used [Appraisal] of what Akira and Rin had risked their lives to pick.

Black Truffle *[1]

Truffle? Did you get a truffle? This mountain! How far out of bounds is this school? There are a lot more outrageous ingredients that came out of nowhere.

Japanese Yam *[2]

Japanese yam! Awesome, its the real thing! I heard they also grow in some places, but its in this mountain, too!

Tonbi Maitake *[3]

This is the first time Ive seen this mushroom. As the name implies, it looks similar to a maitake mushroom, but the size of the umbrella is completely different. Its not poisonous, so there is no problem.

This is how I went about confirming it, but there were poisonous things mixed in as well.

Thank goodness. If Akira had to foretaste this, it would have been irreversible. I mean, thats really dangerous! Well, Im assuming the teacher will confirm that. More importantly, theres mushrooms and some kind of potatoes, but honestly, Ive never cooked them before.

Hey, how many people can cook in here?

..

Thats a lie, isnt it?

The three of them looked away at my question. Apparently, Im the only one who can cook. Seriously? I have something to say, but for now, lets just go together to show the teacher what we picked.

When I went to the place where the teachers were waiting, there were already other students ahead of us, and Kaori was among them.

Kaori!

Eh? Ah, Yuuya-san! Hows your group doing?

Hmm well I guess its good? If it wasnt survival, I think I would have enjoyed it more genuinely

When I let out my true feelings, Kaori gave a bitter smile.

Im sure youre right. But its fun too, right?

Well, yes.

Sure, its dangerous, but its just generally fun. That was the unmistakable truth of the matter. Then it seemed that Kaoris group had finished sorting, and a member of the group called out to Kaori.

Kaori, were done Eh, Tenjou-kun?

Yes, I understand Then Yuuya-san, see you again

Kaori went to her group members who were surprised to see me in some way and left with a lively look on their faces.

Yu-Yuuya-kun. Are you an acquaintance of that Kaori-sama? Akira asked me.

Heh? K-Kaori-sama? W-well the reason I came to this school was also Kaori

Ah, Akira wasnt there when we hung out the other day, was he? So he doesnt know then. There was no need to hide it, so I told the truth as it was, and Akira came close to me while biting his handkerchief.

Im jealous! Im jealous of you! I cant believe youre acquainted with Princess Kaori!

P-Princess?

When I was unable to follow the flow of the conversation, Rin told me while I was dumbfounded.

Aside from that idiot, Kaori-san is the daughter of the headmaster of this school, and they call her Princess because of her elegant appearance and kindness of character.

Hee~

Theres definitely a sense of elegance about her. And yet, shes friendly and when I think about it again; shes really an amazing person. While we were thinking about this, we asked the teacher to sort out the wild plants and other things we had picked.
