"This for you." Nell landed on a rock and offered the grilled fish.
"No thanks." Oceanid answered curtly without turning his head. He just stared at the ocean.
"You don't want this? If so, it's your loss." Nell didn't try to convince her or anything and just ate the grilled fish.
"Things can come and go, you know what you need to do. When you lose something, you will sometimes get something else in return. I just wanted to tell you, we're going to go investigate a mysterious island over there tomorrow morning. After that, we'll go find all of your contaminated avatars." Nell pointed her finger at an island a few kilometers to the north.
"..." Oceanid didn't reply with anything, but he turned his head toward the north. He narrowed his eyes to dig deeper, but he couldn't find anything wrong with that island. Even so, he also felt some oddities that he couldn't understand.
"Why do you call it a mysterious island?" Oceanid asked with raised eyebrows.
