After that, I resumed fishing and further raised Copycat level .
My haul was 12 shark-like fishes, 7 skipjack tuna-like fishes, 4 bluefin tuna-like fishes, a ton of giant squid-like squid, and I fished up a dolphin-like mammal but I released it . It seemed cute after all .
I fished up a ton of small fishes as well but killing those didn’t give much experience .
In addition, I defeated a subspecies of the Emerald Turtle, a Ruby Turtle (Its shell was made of ruby) and Copycat reached Lv17 .
“Log Playback . ”
After saying that, I could confirm the fishing haul until now ― or rather the level up status .
My level went up as follow .
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Copycat skill: 「Fake Attack」acquired】
【Copycat skill: 「Handwriting Imitation」acquired】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Copycat skill: 「Thought Trace」acquired】
【Copycat skill: 「Counterfeit Creation」acquired】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Ichinojo leveled up】
Something like that .
The number of level up entries was little because my level jumped by three when I defeated the Ruby Turtle . As expected, my level increased easily when defeating the jewel turtles .
In contrast, my level didn’t really rise with the other fishes .
I checked my skills in detail .
I got my hands on the Thought Trace skill that I was hoping for but it could not tell me the thoughts of the other party concretely but instead only copied the person’s emotions . I might be able to use it as a lie detector but I couldn’t find Miri’s current location with it .
Fake Attack was the physical attack version of Fake Magic .
Handwriting Imitation was literally a skill to mimic handwriting .
Counterfeit Creation seemed to be a skill to create fake art and antiques .
Both Handwriting Imitation and Counterfeit Creation felt very much like criminal skills but they were handy .
Because of the Common Language Understanding skill I have, I could understand and write the letters in this world . However, even if I could write the letters, they were written in subpar handwriting . My letters would seem like earthworms to the people of this world who have written them for many years . However, with this Handwriting Imitation skill, I could mimic pretty letters and not have to feel unnecessary shame when writing .
As for Counterfeit Creation, it might turn people away when they are told that the item is fake but it is a skill that would come in handy when I need to create a large number of the same items .
For example, silversmithing ― I have made silver earrings in large quantities using the skill but even though I was making the same items, there were still some slight differences between each item . There were some that I was satisfied with while there were also some that I felt were not good enough . However, if I used Counterfeit Creation, I could probably aim to only make earrings that I was satisfied with .
But if Haru used the Counterfeit Appraisal skill that she had, she would probably see that the earring I made was fake .
Copycat had plenty of interesting skills but its level was extremely hard to raise . It was likely to be an advanced job .
Nevertheless, I have the jewel turtle series to raise my level at one go .
If possible, I would love to get my hands on more of them but ―
“Tonight’s dinner will be omelet desu . ”
“Ha, like I said, we’re not eating the turtles … omelet?”
There are eggs? If she’s talking about chicken eggs then I have a few in my item bag which was prepared by Miri .
Omelet huh?
I feel like eating some .
I want to have grated radish on an omelet and topped off with some soy sauce . It’s hard to give up ponzu sauce as well .
“Sheena, you know how to make omelets?”
“Yes desu . I can make rolled omelets too desu . ”
“Really!? All right, please make some right now . ”
“Understood desu!”
Sheena said and was about to crack the eggs ―
“Oi!”
I whacked Sheena No . 3’s head .
It was because Sheena No . 3 wasn’t holding on to chicken eggs . They weren’t bird eggs either . They were a lot smaller and rounder ― they looked exactly like turtle eggs .
“Are these the Ruby Turtle’s eggs?”
“Yes, I have the Emerald Turtle’s egg here as well desu . They have already been fertilized desu . There might be a hidden jewel turtle spawning ground nearby desu . ”
True, I did spot an island a slight distance away .
“Fertilized egg huh, perhaps . ”
I grabbed the eggs from Sheena No . 3 and brought them into My World .
“Pionia, Neete, are you there!?”
They came running when I shouted for them .
“Welcome home, Master . ”
Said Neete in a maid uniform .
Who is the person putting strange knowledge into this girl? But there was no point asking . A person who would leave behind design for a maid outfit could only be ― Malina . She left such an idiotic souvenir .
“Neete, look at this egg . ”
“Hn? This is a turtle egg? Understood, you want to have an omelet right? Leave it to me . ”
“No . Your way of thinking is exactly the same as Sheena No . 3 . ”
“I’ll write anything you like in ketchup for you?”
“You even heard about that detail! Also, not omelet but omelet rice … no, don’t make anything! I want to hatch it . Can you do that?”
“Hn? Ah, hatching it huh? Let me look at it for a moment . ”
Neete said and nodded after she looked at the eggs .
“This egg is no good . It can no longer hatch . All the others are possible though . ”
Neete selected only one from the many eggs .
I could not tell with my eyes but that egg seemed to have already died .
“I wish to increase the numbers by hatching them . Then, I can cultivate them and earn experience . ”
“Ah, it will be difficult . From what I can tell, these are sea turtle eggs? This world does not have a sea . ”
“Ah … that’s right . ”
I won’t be able to cultivate sea turtles if there isn’t a sea .
That was certainly true .
“Can’t I make something like a fish tank?”
“Hn, you could raise one or two in a fish tank but I don’t believe master is referring to that number?”
“Yeah, putting in the effort to raise just one or two won’t give me enough experience . ”
My ideal plan was not to raise them whenever I had time but to breed them optimally .
I thought of a strange idea though .
“That’s true . In that case, what about master creates a sea?”
“Create a sea? Is that possible?”
“Yes, as long as master have enough magical power ― ah but that won’t do . Pionia-oneesan has worked on the majority of this world so I can’t destroy anything ― Hn, if it has come to this point, why don’t master make this world bigger?”
“Make the world bigger? I can’t do something like that ― no, actually I can . ”
There was an increase in various options after I came to this world and created a star .
I recall there was a world expansion option among them .
I could expand the world with MP500 .
“Then I’ll try expanding the world . ”
I agreed to expand the world with a light-hearted mood as if I was deciding to have curry for dinner .
