Fighting the kraken is not easy, the monster can hide in the water. They have a weakness against fire, and although there is a Shino who can fly, the kraken can hide.
Several hours they tried to defeat the kraken with ordinary and powerful fire magic, but still the kraken could not be defeated.
The residents hid inside their houses or shops, terrified by the monsters that had not appeared for years, but now suddenly appeared. The appearance of kraken in the region there once existed, but already about twenty-five years ago, even then, not as big as kraken now.
“It looks like we need a strategy..” said Jaden.
“I'm already exhausted!” david said, his face was already very pale because he was the one who put out the most fire magic to fight the kraken.
“Quick go and drink coconut water!” sahut Sam's.
David nodded then ran back to Selen who was quiet a little far from the beach.
“Selen!”
“David, why is kraken undefeated?” ask Selen.
“It's very difficult to beat him, when we attack, he can hide in the water, whereas we can't breathe in the water, even though we can, we can, fire magic cannot be used in air” David said.
“Then why did you come back? You are the greatest fire magic!”
“I'm exhausted!”
After that Selen dragged David back to the inn, giving the coconut water they had prepared in glass bottles.
“You rest first, let me take your place!”
“Ap-what? Selen, wait!”
Too late, Selen had already run with passion to get back on the scene.
Jaden and others still have difficulty fighting the super large and clever kraken, even Shino also had a chance to be knocked down while flying near the kraken with its tentacles.
Shino who is a dragon is strong, but when compared to other dragons, Shino is still a child or teenager. After all, his kraken was indeed very cunning and ingenious, as if he had often fought with humans.
When viewed from its size, it could be the age of the kraken has been 200 to 500 years.
“Jaden!” shout Selen.
“Selen, you can't be here!” shout June.
“We can be scolded prince Solon!” sahut Kevin's.
“I have a good plan to defeat Kraken, after all it's night, we don't have much time!” selen shouted, so that they could all hear her voice.
“Alright, try saying what you mean!” jaden.
“We trap the kraken to go up to the mainland!”
“Selen, are you crazy? We prevent that monster from ascending to the mainland and destroying the city!” sahut Abel's.
Then Selen pointed to a large part of the beach and blocked the cliff behind her, “pojekkan kraken there! But we need a bait!”
“Let me drive the kraken there!” said Shino.
With Selen's plan, they were finally able to besiege the kraken on land and managed to defeat it.
Shino who had a grudge with the kraken also cut it into pieces.
Jaden was a bit worried when asked to cook the kraken, because it was a monster. All this time the monsters that Jaden ate were just monsters that were commonly eaten, like forest rabbits.
While the kraken was terrifying while still alive, how could Jaden not be worried? But in the end he cooked it also with the other residents into two menus. One is kare kraken soup, the other is cut into small pieces into takoyaki.
The people around there are very happy, the mayor also thanked Jaden and friends. They deliberately did not tell if they were nobles, they claimed to be adventurers only, so that residents were not awkward and formal.
“Jaden, eat only!” said Shino, he gave a takoyaki stitch to Jaden.
“But what is kraken meat that is harmless to humans?” ask Jaden worried.
Shino put up her thinking pose, “hmm, the kraken eats small fish in the ocean and sometimes also coral reefs, all I know is that sea creatures other than mermaids, nymphs or sirens can be eaten kok” said Shino.
“Wait! A merfolk? Siren?”
Shino scrunched her forehead to see the curious look and spirit of Jaden, as Shino remembers, usually Jaden spirit if you see new ingredients and stories about other countries. Seeing Jaden enthusiastic with underwater creatures makes Shino feel strange, because it is rare to see Jaden as enthusiastic as it is.
“You have lived in this world for how many years until you didn't know there were mermaids? Some countries call it mermaid, maybe because they live in Mermaidia, but Siren and nymph are also many who live there, I was a bit confused” said Shino.
“Please tell me again!”
“Eat first, Jaden! after all, it's a shame, what don't you want to sleep? I'm so tired of” complained Shino.
“But the promise of a story about mermaid huh?”
“Alright, now eat first, it's you yourself who cook!”
Jaden was forced to eat takoyaki kraken, it turned out to be delicious, the taste of the meat is tender, Jaden thought it would be hard and not tasty.
“Hmm, good too!”
“Kraken meat is delicious! Besides the stone bird meat is also delicious!”
Jaden stared at Shino confused “ stone birds? That's which one?”
“We have defeated him, Jaden, whose color is bluish green you know, living in the mountains or forests” Kevin said, he brought a small bowl of kare kraken soup for Jaden.
“I have to say how many times, the bluish green is toska!” jaden protests.
“What is it.. You used to bake it into steik” Kevin said.
Jaden now remembered, he had defeated a bird that was twice the size of Jaden's own body, beak and hooves of the bird were then sold to merchant guilds and sold expensive, while Jaden's meat made steak.
Jaden wondered why no one would tell him it was a stone bird, but Jaden himself did not ask.
“Steik stone bird huh? I like it too! Yummy!” said David, he always keeps in touch if the discussion of food. Although David's body is thin and good, but he still likes to eat.
“In the next forest there will be a flock of stone birds, we catch just one huh?” shino.
“What if two?” sahut Jaden, he himself also misses the steak of stone birds that he seasoned with garlic sauce, it tastes so good! But the plan is Jaden will spice it up with ginger sauce as well, it must taste better.
Without Jaden realizing it, when he imagined the steak of birds, he had spent the takoyaki with the kare soup that Kevin brought.
“Eh? Since when is this over?” jaden said confused after seeing the bowl empty.
“You ate it yourself Jaden..” Kevin said, he chuckled at Jaden's confused look.
“I'm so full!” lamented Sam.
“Partially know your stomach is small, still make eat everything, here for me aja!” David snatches away the rest of the takoyaki Sam brought.
Shino handed Sam a drink, “drink this, let your stomach be relieved” said Shino.
“Still!” Sam grabbed the drink and sipped it slowly.
“After this we rest, because tomorrow we will leave again” said Jaden.
“And hunting rock birds!” sahut Shino's.
