บท 170: A Disturbance On The Ship

The group followed me below deck to look for sweets.

On the way down though, a thought crossed my mind which I just had to voice out.

"I remember Emilia said the ship had top of the line magic cannons or something, but it didn't look like it was effective against that Sea Serpent? If Emilia wasn't there, we would have been in trouble too."

Lisa giggled, "Ehehe~ As expected of Aster to realise something like that! That was all a show actually~"

"Eh? A show?"

"Mmhmm~ I've seen her do it before~ When they are first attacked by a monster, she would intentionally instruct her crew to lower the power of their cannons so that she would have a chance to show off her skills. Unless the monster is something she was unable to beat on her own, of course."

Odeta tilted her head, "Why would she do that?"

"Ehehehe~ To show off~"

Katsuki, Odeta and I stared at Lisa unblinkingly.
