The blue waters sparkle in the sun, the white waves crash against the golden sand, and the reefs by the sea retain the marine life that comes with the tide, oysters, sea urchins, abalone, shells, crabs...... These table-worthy delicacies can be found everywhere by the sea.

Here, on the sandy beach of the Clay Coast, it looks nice and peaceful, and there is no danger at all as it is rumored to be.

Izumi bent down to break an oyster from the reef, and because no one came to pick them, they were all very large and grew a large patch on the reef.

After dealing with some of Clay's historical legacy, Electrolux finally had time to come out and have some fun.

By the way, let's take a look at this sea area that the sea people don't even dare to approach.

"I don't know how dangerous it is, but it looks beautiful."

The sea is bluer than the sky, and the wind carries the salty and wet smell of seawater.

"Look over there." Electrolux lifted his hand and pointed into the distance.

Izumi looked in the direction he had pointed, and at the end of the sea level, a small island could be faintly visible.

"Where did you live before? That island castle? ”

It wasn't a good name, but Izumi felt it fit in with the castle he hadn't seen before, where Electrolux had been his childhood and where he had been a cage.

It is said that every son of the Black would die alone on that island, and if it weren't for the sudden death of Electrolux's parents, and the fact that they had no children other than Electrolux, the family was almost withered, and Electrolux would not have been picked up by Raymond so easily.

"The first time we met was in that castle."

"Here??" It's the first time Izumi has heard of this, "I thought we met in the castle of the Imperial Palace. ”

Forgive him for not remembering anything, the memories he lost when he was a child cannot be fully recovered even now, too much time has passed.

In terms of the number of years he has lived, he should be about the same age as Electrolux.

"No, the first time we met was here and there. His Majesty Raymond and Her Majesty the Empress and you inspect the coast - maybe for tourism? Who knows, anyway, he came to Clay. ”

"By that time the prince had been making small moves, and when His Majesty arrived at Clay and was patrolling the coast, he secretly planned an operation that induced a sea beast attack and sent men to assassinate the royal family in the chaos."

"Although it didn't work out in the end, there were people who lost their lives in this assassination attempt." Electrolux was still cold when he said this, even though it was his parents who died in that assassination.

Yes, the previous Duke of Clay and Lord Duke were killed in that attack, and they were so close to Raymond that the assassins and rampaging sea beasts who were heading for the royal family didn't know which side they were able to solve together.

Raymond and Miranda, who were guilty, didn't care about the legend about the Black Son after hearing that there was only one child left in the Clay family, and went to the island to pick up Electrolux in person.

Izumi was with his parents at that time, and he was the first to meet Electrolux and the first to talk to him when he landed on the island.

That was the first time Electrolux had seen anyone other than the slave on the island, the little prince who was not afraid of him at all.

"Hello, I'm Ismail, what's your name, brother?"

He was lying on the reef and looking at the sky, when the child, who shone brighter than the sun, suddenly appeared in his eyes and smiled at him.

He held out his hand to him, never letting go of it since.

"Shall we go to the island and have a look?" Izumi looked into the distance, but the island was so far away that only a faint outline could be seen in the field of vision.

"Is there a boat coming to the island?" It shouldn't be too far by boat, right? He kind of wanted to see the castle.

"After a while, no one has been up there for a long time, and it needs to be cleaned."

Although it was a place where he had been trapped for nearly ten years, the beautiful moment when he left made Electrolux not hate the sandy beaches on that island.

Izumi's expression was a little strange: "Anyone is willing to go to that island?" Doesn't it mean that people here are afraid to approach the sea? The location of that island is not supposed to be a shallow sea, right? ”

"It just happened to be at the junction of the shallow sea area and the deep sea area, I asked Brand to help escort people up, there will be no accident with him, well, please also ask Shanaiduo and the monarch snake." Secretly carried out in the name of giving Izumi a surprise.

Quan woke up and said: "No wonder I didn't see Shanaiduo today, they also said that they had something to do, and I guessed what was going on for a long time." ”

In the morning, Shanaiduo said that he had something to do, so he took all the elves of the spring away. After it left, Electrolux invited Izumi to the beach, and he was still regretting that Shanaiduo and the others couldn't come together, but he didn't expect them to go to the island.

Electrolux smiled and said nothing, he did it on purpose.

He patted Izumi on the shoulder to divert his attention: "Don't think about it, hurry up and find food, didn't you say that you have to be self-reliant on the beach today?" ”

"There's so much food here, just find some." Izumi showed him the bucket in his hand, "The water quality here is very good, these oysters are very fresh, whether they are steamed or charcoal-grilled, they are delicious, even if they are eaten raw, abalone and crabs are also simple to steam, and these shells are not bad for soup, but the sea urchin is not easy to handle." ”

"Then don't have sea urchins." Electrolux took out the prickly sea urchin from the bucket and threw it away.

Only the two of them can solve this meal by finding some seafood, so it is not a pity for Izumi to see that he lost the sea urchin, and asked Electrolux to help him turn over the rocks to find the crabs, and he dug up a lot of oysters himself, and only left the reef when he felt that it was almost enough, and set up a fire in the shade of the beach to prepare for these foods.

Cooking is not troublesome, they bring enough tools and water in their storage props, Izumi's cooking skills have always been good, and simple seafood naturally can't bother him.

"This sea area is so rich in sea resources, it would be a pity not to develop it." Izumi sighed as he processed the ingredients.

"It's okay in the shallow sea, there is no danger, there are a lot of sea beasts in the deep sea area, look over there, is there a jet of water that is spraying up?" Electrolux pointed into the distance.

Izumi's eyesight was not as good as his, so he simply took out his binoculars and looked in the direction he said, and sure enough, he saw several high water columns on the shoreline, and under the surface of the sea, there were faint black shadows, obviously at such a distance, Izumi also thought that they were some big guys, and if he looked closely, he didn't know what kind of behemoth it would be.

"That's a group of Neptune whales, although they are only fifth-order sea beasts, but they are very huge, and every time they appear, they appear in groups, they will come to the deep sea area of this sea area at this time of year to breed and give birth to offspring, they will drive the baby Neptune whale to the shallow water here after giving birth, and then the adult Neptune whale will move at the junction of the deep and shallow seas, protect the little Neptune whale from being attacked by other sea beasts, and wait until the little Neptune whale grows to a certain size, and will take them away.

At this time, the Neptune Whale is very violent, they will attack any sea beasts and people that enter this water, even the higher-level sea beasts will not come here to provoke them at this time, so this side will look so calm. ”

With such a group of adult Neptune whales guarding their cubs guarding them, Clay can be said to be the safest at this time.

"These Neptune whales will drive the fish into the shallow water to feed their young, so there are a lot of fish here, and as soon as the Neptune whales leave, those foraging sea beasts will follow the fish into the shallow water, and then this sea area will become very lively and dangerous."

"You know a lot."

"I did some research before I came." A hint of pride flashed in Electrolux's eyes, for this date, he had been preparing in private for a long time, and he had thought carefully about all possible things.

Yes, this is Electrolux's long-planned double date, which is why he has to support Shanaiduo and other guys who will get in the way of his date.

The two of them talked and laughed and made a meal of seafood, although only the simplest cooking method was used, and the seasoning was only a few basics, but because the ingredients were good, the things made were still delicious and made Izumi addicted.

Filling his stomach, Izumi came up with another idea.

"Shall we go fishing? Doesn't it mean that there are a lot of fish here? ”

"Okay, let's go to the reef, I heard that it used to be a famous fishing spot." Electrolux, who has made enough preparations, is ready to forget to prepare fishing tackle.

The two men extinguished the fire, dug a pit and buried all the food scraps, and then walked towards the fishing spot that Electrolux had mentioned.

It was a big reef, and the water under the reef was deeper than on the beach, and the waves made a high splash on the reef, and the sea breeze blew through it, taking away the summer heat.

Izumi had fishing tools in his backpack, all of which he had prepared during his previous trips to the PM Continent, and these things were later moved to his storage ring, which now came in handy.

He took out his fishing box and adjusted it with a fishing rod, but instead of immediately starting fishing, he took out the bait from the box and threw it into the sea.

"What is this?"

"Sprinkle some bait to attract the fish, so it's easier to catch the fish." Izumi looked at the bait bag in his hand, although this bait has been put for more than ten years, whether it is in a backpack or a storage ring, it can be kept fresh by time prohibition, it should not have expired, right?

Electrolux looked down at the bottom of the sea and was silent for a moment before asking, "What are you made of this bait?" ”

"Tree fruit and flour or something, right? What's wrong? Izumi thought that this thing had been left for too long and it would have been used up earlier, so he simply sprinkled the whole bag, "When I bought this bait, I heard that it was the most popular among the elves of the water system...... Greet...... Target? ”

A big wave came, and if it hadn't been for Electrolux's quick eye to pull the fountain back, the water would have poured over their heads.

But for the time being, Izumi doesn't have time to think about this.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, a large fish of more than three meters swayed its tail in the air, and then plunged into the sea again.

"Well, it's really popular."

Beneath the water, groups of small cubs swim around, chasing the small, but enticingly scented bait.

"Congratulations on bringing in all the calves of the Neptune whale."
