Chapter 48.1: Seawater Tribe’s Treasure (1)

···Didn’t she say that it would be just a simple dinner?

However, in the meantime, other members of the Seawater tribe also gathered around, and the number of bonfires increased, and the atmosphere quickly became like a festival.

“Are you the person who healed the chieftain’s injuries? Thank you so much, thank you! Haha!”

“I apologized for the way we treated you before. And thank you for taking care of the chieftain. You’re a good human being.”

Tribe members passing by me said a word at a time. It was mostly just them saying thank you.

Their attitude was the complete opposite of how they had been before, treating him like an intruder.

Everyone seemed to really appreciate how I healed the chieftain’s wounds. If it’s because of that, I couldn’t really do anything about it.

“Okay, try this.”

Anne held out a large piece of freshly baked fish meat on a skewer with team rising.

I took it and blew on it with my mouth to cool it, then took a small bite.

Her confident smile reflected the blazing bonfire.

“How about it? How does it taste?”

“Good.”

The taste was as expected

Fruits, smoked meats, fish that Anne had caught, as well as other fish dishes, came out, so it became a complete feast.

“I’m glad it seems to suit your taste.”

The chieftain chuckled pleasantly and chewed the fish to the bone.

“By the way, it would have been nice to have had alcohol, but unfortunately, there was nothing here since it’s not our home.”

Alcohol.

Come to think of it, I hadn’t drunk even a sip of alcohol since I came to this world. I wasn’t in a position to do that.

I glanced around.

Once again, I caught the sight of the Seawater people sitting around each seat and enjoying their meal.

Those who cook the meat, those who raise their voices, and the children who were asking when the meat would be done.

And on one side, I could see men walking across the forest with spears, probably wanting to catch more fish.

They were free and unconstrained. It was such a sight to behold.

“We always get together to eat like this. It’s a really fun and rich time.”

The chieftain also looked around at the tribe members.

I asked him.

“Now that you have healed your wounds, are you going to leave this place right away?”

“I think so. Even if not, we have already wasted a lot of time, so we should leave as soon as possible.”

This time, the chieftain asked me.

“I wonder if you found what you were looking for.”

I nodded.

“Fortunately, I found it thanks to your help.”

Anne, who was eating meat hard said while chewing the contents in her mouth.

“That’s right, Grandpa! I almost died when I was caught in the water by a swarm of fish? But blood came out of his palm and killed them all at once!”

“What do you mean?”

“No, I mean, there’s blood on his hands like this, then the swarm of fish just died…”

It was an explanation that could not be easily understood if they didn’t know exactly what Anne was talking about.

But the chieftain only had a smile on his lips.

I suddenly got curious and asked.

“You seem to have understood a bit about me from the first time you saw me, right?”

“Exactly.”

“Is that also an ability of the Seawater people?”

I remember that the Seawater tribe probably didn’t have any special abilities in that way. Was it just because the chieftain’s sixth sense was good?

He chuckled and shook his head.

“I could hardly call it an ability. It’s just that as the time of death approaches, things you’ve never seen before have become visible. The supreme level that is

leaking out of your soul.”

Ah, the [Soul of the King]…

I had nothing to say, so I said nothing.

Instead, Anne spoke with a straight and hard face.

“What’s wrong with dying again, Grandpa? Don’t keep saying things like that? You wounds are healed, so why are you talking about death again?”

The chieftain laughed out loud.

“Child, can I go against the rules of nature that you’ve denied? Don’t make me keep saying things I’ve said a few times already.”

“···Even so!”

He must really have little time left, so he said something like that.

The chieftain seemed to be convinced that his lifespan was ending. How? And why?

“Our tribe’s home is the Poluv Sea in the northern part of the continent.”

Before I could ask, he spoke first.

“I left there a long time ago, riding rivers, sometimes walking on land, and roaming the seas extending from the north to the west of the continent until now.

As our ancestors did, and as our descendants will, it is our Seawater people who do not stay in one place and wander for the rest of their lives. This is the way we live. That’s the cycle.”
