CSA 85 - It Was a Tropical Resort (Patreon)

Having narrowly escaped from the clutches of Nrva and Stia, Lotorl teleported and was now in a private beach she had created on the coast of Lycorus Country.
It's not like dealing with those two has suddenly become troublesome or anything like that, you know? It's true, you know?
So I'm the type of person who would rather pamper than be pampered, and be restrained than restraint.

Now, to briefly describe our upcoming journey, we are planning to cross the sea from Lycorus Country and go through the Gate on Dragen Island to reach Ganasaki Island of Khizr Country.

We lost our ship on our last voyage, so this time I would like to use my Flight Skill and visual teleportation to move safely.

“Here I go.”

I used Flight Skill to float up and then teleport to the visible horizon, I repeat the process until I can see Dragen Island.

“The─sea─is─so─wide─too─wide.”

I've teleported several times, but I haven’t seen anything.
Occasionally I’d see schools of fish or something that looks like a whale, but that's about it.

“Hmm, should I try going up to the stratosphere once?”

I teleported to a small cloud drifting in the sky, and used my Flight Skill to rise even higher and search for Dragen Island.

※ If you do the same thing with a flesh and blood body that has not been modified in any way, it will be very dangerous, so please do not imitate it.

“Oh, is it that one?”

I discovered an island as small as a grain of rice.
In other words, it was so far away that it looked like a grain of rice.

“No wonder everyone hates it.”

Traveling this distance would be hell unless I was on a modernized luxury cruise ship from my previous life, I thought.

The ship I built was the best ship that would never break and could fly in the sky, so if there were no isekai abnormal weather, I could have sailed through the whole thing easily and comfortably, couldn’t I?

Leaving that aside, I used teleportation to get close to the island, and then used Flight Skill to land at the island's port.

“So this is Dragen Island.”

There are many huge ships moored here, and it feels like a flourishing tropical resort for the rich.
It would be a waste to just pass through without stopping by, and for Alrina's sake, should I build a teleportation base in a deserted place for the next time we come here?

I moved from the port to the beach, and moved to a cliff while collecting sand into Storage. Once I was there, I dug a hole and created a cave on the cliff by using Alchemy Skill to liquify it, and built a cave hut inside it using aero adamantite.

“Alright, done.”

Now then, I would like to go sightseeing on Dragen Island.

“What do you think, ma'am? It's a pearl necklace made of pearls from pearl shrimps that can only be found on this island.”

“This is a hair ornament made from extremely valuable dragen ore that can only be found on this island. Would you like one?”

“How about a bite? This is a dragen banana that can only be grown on this island. It's sweet, delicious, and has a reputation for being good for your health.”

When I went to a market near the port, what I always heard is the catchphrase; “can only be found on this island.”
The clerks at every store always use those same words to advertise their products without fail, so most likely, this island has its own advertising manual.

“But first, bananas are a must, right?”

So I headed to the banana store.

“Welcome, Ojou-chan. Would you like to try a bite?”
“Then, I won’t hold back.”

When I picked up a sliced banana full of black seeds and ate it, it had a sweeter and more fragrant flavor than the banana I had eaten in my previous life, and I could eat the large seeds as they are as well. It’s yummy.

“You can spit the seeds into the bucket over there.”
“Eh, was it bad that I ate it?”
“It's fine if you eat it, but it's dangerous if you choke on it.”

In other words, you can swallow it but not chew it.

My jaws and teeth made of aero adamantite will crunch everything! 1000 points of damage to Lotorl's mind!

I decided that I would not let such a tragedy happen again by purchasing a single banana for 1000 el and making seedless banana, no, banana that could be eaten along with the seeds, just like in my previous life.
