I Fell into the Game with Instant Kill

Chapter 45.1: Space Leap (3)



Chapter 45.1: Space Leap (3)

Seawater tribe.

One of the many rare races that existed in this world.

The woman in front of me right now definitely belonged to that tribe.

Because the only race that appeared to be an ordinary human on the ground and the appearance of a whole body covered with scales in the water was them.

I was a little surprised because I didn’t expect to see such a rare race in a place like this.

“What are you staring at? Are you curious?”

“···”

He’s a bit of a funny guy.

The scales that had sprouted on the skin almost disappeared.

She was completely naked because she wasn’t wearing a single piece of clothing, so I glanced away.

···Come to think of it, they weren’t the kind of people who were ashamed of showing their naked body like humans.

The woman glanced at me and then continued with a tongue-in-cheek tone.

“How long are you going to be stunned? Aren’t you going to say thank you to me for saving you from becoming fish food?”

I also got up and shook my head.

“There’s no need for you to save me.”

“···What?”

“It wasn’t even dangerous. You just did something useless.”

I could just say thank you and move on, but the way she spoke was annoying.

“Wow, hah! So, that was not dangerous.”

“Yes.”

“You’re really shameless. Is it so hard to say thank you? Did you think I’d ask for anything in return for saving you, like you humans do?”

“I was just telling the truth.”

“Okay, that’s all right. Boy, anyway, that’s why human bastards are…”

She shook her head and turned around.

I stared at her back.

‘Do the Seawater tribe also live in Gaitan Lake?’

It was a fact I didn’t know at all.

Because it was such a rare race that I only saw it once while playing the game.

And I knew that the Seawater tribe was definitely a tribe that inhabited the ocean… Why the hell were they in a lake like this?

As it was an unexpected encounter, I felt a little strange, but a thought suddenly came to my mind.

···Then do they know some important information about the lake here?

Could they know where the place I was looking for was?

After thinking about it up to that point, I immediately called after the woman.

“Hey, Seawater person.”

She stopped walking at my call and turned her head back. She had a slightly bewildered face.

“Who are you? Do you know about our race?”

“Yes.”

“How?”

“Because I’ve seen it in a book. A legendary race that has a human form on the ground and scales like fish in the water.”

“···Me, a legend?”

The corners of her lips twitched.

“Hmm, hmm. It’s a legend. Is our race so famous to you humans?”

“···”

Did she like hearing the word “legendary”?

I just meant that it’s a race that was rarely seen.

As she stared at me, she suddenly gave me a look of disappointment.

“Oh, no? I’m not a Seawater person? You’re wrong, human.”

Why was she acting like that suddenly?

“I’m right.”

“No, sir. Don’t go around saying that you saw me here, huh?”

She started murmuring that she saved me for nothing.

Like the vampires of Elrod Forest, I wondered if they were concerned that their home would be exposed.

Still, she didn’t want to kill me, but she tried to save me.

“So what? Why are you calling me?” she asked.

I asked her.

“Are you aware of the rock formations in the lake? Or is there a cave?”

She made a strange expression, then frowned and replied.

“I don’t know. Why are you asking that?”

I didn’t miss that subtle change.

After gaining extra sensory, I could read other people’s facial expressions better, but she especially could not hide her emotions.

So I was half sure. That she knew the place I just said.

“You know.”

As I spoke again, I saw her flinch. So, she really knew about it.

“Please. I want you to guide me there.”

“No, I don’t know.”

“If there is anything you want, I will repay you in the best possible way.”

She snorted and turned back.

“Well, don’t hold on to me with useless words. If you chase me, I’ll throw you back into the lake, so don’t chase after me.”

Then she ran and disappeared into the forest in an instant.

I brushed my hair once more and stared at the forest.

I wasn’t worried about losing her.

It seemed that they settled here by the lake, anyway.

How should I coax that?

I’d go back and try again later.

***

After returning to the carriage, drying myself and eating, I immediately took Asher back to the place where I had met the woman.

I followed the trail she left.

Footprints on the floor, tread marks, etc., were enough to figure out where she was headed.

There were traces that would be difficult to find normally, but it wasn’t too difficult to notice with super sensory. It was also very useful for tracking.

The place we reached after chasing the trail was a cave located deep in the forest.

I saw two men standing at the entrance of the cave, chatting.

They looked like they were standing guard, and when they saw us, they stiffened their faces.

“···Humans?”

It seemed to be the right place.

One hurried into the cave, and the other shouted at us as we approached the cave.

“Stop, human!”

I quietly stopped.

I felt others coming from inside, so I waited quietly.

Soon, dozens of Seawater tribe people came out of the cave. Fortunately, this time they were all wearing clothes, so there was no need for me to look elsewhere.

“···Hey you!”

One of them, a woman with a familiar face, saw me and pointed a finger at me and shouted.

“How did you know we’re here?”
