Ch . 149 Bone Fishing Rod

I restarted my work on making the fishing rod after having finished eating .

I tried cutting the fur thin enough to act as a string, and the pole is being made using the spine by cutting off the extra parts . I cut tiny holes on the tip of the pole and thread the fur string through there, making sure to tie it firmly . I then pull out a decent sized needle from the cactus and bend it a little so it forms a hook, then tie it to the fur string .

Hmm…even though it’s a fishing rod it does look a little weird . How far can this thing be casted? Is there even a fish that will get caught with this?

“Umm, What did you make?”

Nina calls out .

Alright, ball rabbit, it’s your turn!

Do your job as a translator!

I let you eat a good amount earlier so I won’t hold back!

I know that it’s sometimes hard to convey what the other is saying exactly but just this time I want you to say everything I’m thinking as clearly as possible .

I want it to come out as if I’m the one speaking .

“pe, pefu… . . ”

The ball rabbit that was taking a nap after eating was shaken by my tail and woken up, A translation is requested .

Tell her that I made a fishing rod, even though it looks a little weird .

「… . Fishing rod, made look」

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

The translation came out rather hard to discern in meaning… .

Isn’t there a better way? I know that it can’t be helped, but I want more feeling put into it .

“Fishing rod?”

Nina sees the fishing rod that I made and tilts her head . I know that the fishing rod doesn’t look anything close to what a fishing rod should look like, but with the hook hanging on a string like that it shouldn’t be too hard to figure it out . Apparently, Nina didn’t know what a fishing rod was in the first place .

Is there a chance that fishing rods don’t exist in this world? That’s strange, isn’t it something essential? Even 40,000 years ago in my world a fishing hook was found in some ruins . Even without all the perfect conditions, someone should have come across the idea to hang the fish on some kind of hook .

There is also a chance that Nina just didn’t know of it . There are cases like that depending on the environment and culture you live in .

“gua”

The hook at the end of the line is dipped into the sea not to far off shore, you take it out if a fish gets caught . From the world I’m from fishing has been an enjoyable past time, excluding those whose profession was fishing of course . If Nina at least tries it I think it might turn out pretty well .

“pefu… . ”

「come on already, make short」

A-Ah, sorry .

I got a little too excited .

「Hang hook . Pull up fish . Fun . Give a try」

The way that was summarized is a little… .

Man, I wish I could communicate instead . Somehow I feel that I’m coming off as cold . That was like a doctor telling a patient how to digest, I want it to be a little more heartfelt .

“That tool, you want me to use it?”

After hearing the explanation, Nina asked me while staring at the fishing rod with sparkling eyes .

Oh, did it catch your interest? Looking at Nina’s status I guess this may be natural for her, so it may be something she is quite fond of .

By all means, go ahead .

I won’t use it myself, so you could take it with you to the port city . You may get a chance to use it some time .

Which reminds me, I could maybe use it for planting, with [[Status Check]] I could figure what else it could be used for . I should do it really quick .

[[[Bone Fishing Rod: Value: F+]]] [It is the only one of its kind using the same material, the thread is thick and so is the hook] [It will be difficult to reel in food even if the hook were to pierce]

That’s a painful evaluation… .

We-Well, I guess it’s the thought that counts . Actually, it was made using gathered materials from scraps, so I think it’s lucky that it was even evaluated as being a fishing rod . I can make as many as I want as long as I have more camels .

Ill knead together whatever is left of the camel and make some pieces of meat dumplings to use as bait .

… . I wonder if this kind of fishing will work . I have been making things out of my ideas, but I’m worried about this one . Does the sea of this world have normal fish? Or have all the normal fish been over fished?

Nina also imitates me and happily starts making meat dumplings . I can’t let the anxiety show now . Should I ask after staring at the ocean for a while? If we aren’t able to catch anything, what should I do to compensate?

The ball rabbit also kneads the surplus meat with its ears into meat dumplings and flicks it into its mouth . Can’t you at least just help a little . Are you still lacking enough food after eating all of that camel’s meat? It looked like you consumed over a few hundred kilos worth, are you collecting calories?

It’s probably the strangest thing I’ve encountered since entering this world .

I wrap the bait with fur and hand it to Nina along with the fishing rod . Nina caresses the fishing rod and looks to the sea .

“Please leave it to Nina! I will gather a good amount for tonight’s meal nya! Even if it’s a little bit, I will definitely get something!”

Okay

I’m happy you are excited about it, but you don’t have to force yourself… .

Rather, in the case when you’re not able to catch anything, I’m sorry, I will help you out somehow… .

I will need to ask the ball rabbit for help using [[Telepathy]] if Nina ends up in a bad mood . Just as an insurance if we aren’t able to catch anything .

“pefu”

「yeah, expected crisis . If tonight comes without any catch, you bastard will have to go do something about it yourself, ok~」

“Funya!?”

Ball rabbit! What’s with you!

Far from acting as insurance, you go and say that .

Nina’s trembling a little!

You didn’t have to be so malicious about it!

“If you are fine with Ni-Nina then… . ”

Fix this!

Ball rabbit, please fix it!

This girl is making weird decisions!

Nina realizes after I started panicking that it was just the ball rabbits joke and starts laughing while patting her chest .

In order to get started on fishing, we return to the beach . Nina was restlessly excited, and was observing the sea with a blushing face .

Guessing from the ears, she’s a cat beast person, and may really like fish . No, not all cats liked fish . I heard that if it had to choose between canned beef food or canned fish food, it would choose the former, ah my memories are a little disappointing . Seeing that my companion was a drunk it couldn’t be helped .

Fish, the fish of the sea…I can’t see any .

Is there really something to catch?

I will feel guilty if we weren’t able to catch anything . Even boots or an empty can could make a nice story, but it doesn’t look like much people travel around here in the first place… .
