On the Lake

With our fighting strength unexpectedly bolstered, we set out to hunt the kraken.

We split up between two boats. On mine were Anemone, Myaree, and Nyamena.

Amaranthus was with us too. A small boat was being towed behind us by a rope, carrying the trio of beastfolk.

"Nyaaaah! We're going this fast on top of the water?!" "Gyaaaah!" "Waaah!"

The trio were making a racket behind us. I'd tried to get them to wear life jackets too, but they wouldn't.

Beastfolk seemed to hate feeling constricted.

"Hey! Hold on tight! If you fall in during the fight, I'm not rescuing you!"

Nyamena turned around and teased the trio.

"Don't you worry! We won't be beaten by something like this!" "I know, but—Gyaaaah!" "I think I'm about to lose heart!"

"Wahaha!"...
