"Can you swim? You shouldn't ask, you should ask, 'How good is it?'"

Verbally does not admit defeat, but in fact, Lucia is also desperately recalling, can she swim in the end?

Because you can move freely in the water even when you are under a glacial lake, you should be able to swim...... Right?

But even if you can't swim, it's not much worse, and you won't get flooded anyway.

Casually putting the questions she thought weren't a big deal behind her, Lucia took a step toward the depths of the water.

"Is it really okay?"

In response to Lamech's nagging, Lucia just waved her hand casually and moved on.

"Okay. ”

Lamech sighed helplessly, since Lucia thinks it's okay, then let's take it as if it's really okay, anyway, it's not very difficult for me to save people at such a distance.

Step by step, step by step, Lucia slowly reached the level of water that could reach her chest, and then pounced forward in the same way that she remembered the swimmers.

Seeing this, Lamech was already able to determine that Lucia couldn't swim, after all, no one who could swim would make a diving pose in the water, and besides, Lucia sank into the water after jumping in the water, and there was no sign of floating at all.

Sighing, Lamech quickly paddled up and swam towards the place where Lucia had sunk, and Lucia of the province had choked on the water for too long and suffered.

However, until Lamech swam to that position, Lucia, who should have drowned, was like a stone sinking into the water, not to mention struggling, and not even a single bubble was spit out.

Lamech panicked, she didn't know what was going on, and quickly dived into the water to find Lucia.

However, this is the only way to see it, which makes Lamech choke on the water, because Lucia is standing at the bottom of the lake and waving to her.

The pain of being poured into the trachea by the lake water caused Lamech to hurriedly slap the water, and she coughed on the surface, and waited until Lucia stepped out of the water step by step, and Lamech felt the hot irritation in her nose and throat ease a little, and then immediately complained to Lucia, who had just played a walk in the water.

"You...... Ahem, where are you a water elf?!"

The water sprites just now were just a joke, but this time, Lamech was really so suspicious. Because Lucia standing in the water, except for her hair rippling with the waves, is not at all the same as standing on land, and it is no longer a question of whether the water is good or not.

"I'm not an evolution of Eevee, am I?"

After tilting her head in reply, Lucia pinched her chin in confusion and looked at the lake.

"It's strange, why can't it float?"

Although Lucia remembers that many funny comics or shoujo manga have the so-called "zero body fat" characters who can't float, but she is not the kind of physique that makes no sense at all, right?

"And it seems like I don't need to breathe. ”

When I was at the bottom of the glacial lake before, I didn't notice that Lucia was not 'able to breathe underwater', but that she didn't need to breathe at all.

So notice that you are the type that doesn't make sense, Miss Lucia.

Casually fiddling with the water, Lucia said to Lamech half to show off and half indifferently.

"That's an interesting physique, isn't it?"

- Oh the hell! Roaring inwardly, Lamech felt a headache that instantly overshadowed the discomfort in his nose and throat.

If that's true, it's not the level of 'fun'.

Creatures must abide by the rules that exist in this world, and the basic 'breath' of survival is the basis of everything, but Lucia can break the rules?

Without any time to take care of the discomfort of choking on the water, Lamai hurried to Lucia's side, first carefully examined Luxia's face, and after making sure that Lucia really did not look drowning, Lamai asked solemnly.

"Don't you really need to breathe?"

Lucia tilted her head.

"No, what's wrong? It's just that you don't need to breathe?"

Lucia, who didn't take this seriously at all, didn't understand Lamech's seriousness, she didn't think about what it meant to her surroundings at all, she only knew what it meant to herself.

"This kind of useless little stunt can only be used for diving at most, right?"

Through Lucia's expression, Lamai could clearly feel that Lucia really didn't take this matter very seriously, which made Lamech want to roll her eyes, is she a eunuch who is anxious for the emperor for a long time.

Thinking about it like this, even Lamech felt that it didn't matter.

"But ......"

Lucia tapped her finger to her lips and asked Lamech for advice.

"I can't drown, right?

Lamech rolled his eyes.

"No, what does it look like to be useful in your mind?"

After thinking about it, Lucia replied.

"Swimming is a sport that can hold your breath more than anyone else. ”

"That's why it's not!"

Lamech felt that it was better to teach Lucia how to use it, otherwise if Lucia continued to develop like this, she might not be able to learn to swim for the rest of her life.

Forcefully pulling Lucia into the shallow water, Lamech took Lucia's hands and taught her from the very basics.

"Feet off the ground, relax the strength of the body. ”

Lucia reluctantly did so, and then ......

Completely sunk into the water without any suspense.

Lamech closed her eyes in pain, because the lack of breath was so shocking that she had accidentally forgotten about it.

Lucia stood up from the water and tried to ask.

"Why don't you start teaching me how to float?"

――It's better to be able to teach. It was the first time that Lamai had heard of such a strange and unparalleled tutorial, which was like teaching people how to breathe.

After arguing about her sense of responsibility and reason, Lamech spoke to Lucia.

"Let's go catch fish, and eat a full feast of grilled fish tonight." ”

If you think about it, swimming isn't that important, is it? According to Darwin's argument, it took so long for humans to evolve to live on land, so why should they have nothing to do?

Besides, even if Lucia can't learn to swim, at least she's at the top of her diving skills, and that's enough, right?

After such self-comfort, Lamech's remaining sense of responsibility also completely succumbed.

Hearing about the grilled fish, Lucia's interest also came.

"Then I'm going to eat a lot. ”

Lamech replied.

"No problem. ”

Lucia added.

"Put a lot of seasoning. ”

"Yes. ”

"It's best to wrap it in a layer of puff pastry, it's more fragrant. ”

“...... Good. ”

"Let's get some more tender meat to stew. ”

“......。 ”

"Speaking of which, I've always wanted to eat a sea monster or something, it must taste amazing, right?"

“...... You've got enough. (To be continued.) )
