Chapter 172: 152

After leaving the house, I slowly drove the wagon through the snowy road toward the river.

When I arrived at the river, I saw something laying on the ground. It was a merman’s corpse. The body was littered with holes all over. 

Sensing something disturbing, I raised the level of my vigilance. I checked my equipment. I had my bow and arrow, two swords and there was nothing amiss with my armor either. 

I stopped the wagon, raised my shield up and activated ‘Fortress’. I approached the merman to take a closer look at it. As I thought, the merman was pierced by some sort of needle. 

BAM!

And then suddenly something hit my shield. Some sort of a big needle tumbled to the ground. On the surface of the water, two huge shadows emerged. 

Those things were sea urchins. However, their size was strange. I tried to use appraisal on them. 

【Giant Urchin: A huge echinoderm monster. Attack by using flying needles. Weak to lightning attribute. Serpent is Giant Urchin’s natural enemy.】

It seemed Giant Urchin was on a lower level of the food chain than that giant snake. Maybe the ecosystem around this place went into ruin because of my own hunting and the guild’s subjugation activity. 

I readied my shield and pulled out my Wolverine Thunder Sword. 

Carefully, I observed my enemy. The giant urchin shot their needle roughly every 3 seconds. I waited for the timing and then I ran diagonally toward the giant urchin. 

SMACK! RIPPLE! RIPPLE!

I approached the giant sea urchin and when I managed to position myself slightly in front of it, I stabbed the giant sea urchin with my sword. Then, I distanced myself from the other giant sea urchin before I defeated the last one using the same motion with the first one. 

『Individual Name: Keigo Okuda is now level 17.

I cracked the defeated sea urchin open and used appraisal to check the content of it. 

【Giant Urchin’s Ovary: Extremely delicious.】

I took a bite of the so-caled extremely delicious thing. 

Hap… Melt… BOOM!

Thunder roared behind me. 

Purple sea urchin from Rishiri Island, a first class urchin that grew up to become so delicious by only eating the kelp from Rishiri Island, paled in terms of deliciousness before this giant sea urchin. Not to mention this huge size. No wonder even the serpent would go crazy over this and live by eating this giant sea urchin. 

It seems today’s meal will be sea urchin. 

I could imagine the happy faces of those three people plus one dog. I originally planned on fishing in order to procure some fish roe but I decided to change my plan. 

While being careful of the spines, I put the giant sea urchin on the wagon and went back home. 

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

T/N: TIL that ‘uni’ is the sea urchin’s genital. Turns out the uni we eat is not the sea urchin’s roe or body but its genital. I thought ‘uni’ is the body part… Like the part we eat from clams…
