Torture Officer Xiao Jie Just Wants to Fish

"No la……"

Rose waved her hand modestly, but there was something wrong there.

Why does the elf princess's boastful words sound like nothing good...

However, the tone was genuine praise, so Rose didn't care too much.

But Isabella on the side remained indifferent.

"Hope you're not trying to trick these guys..."

Of course she didn't believe that Rose would think about human civilians!

But this attitude was also expected by Rose.

After all, Isabella is a "human aristocratic young lady", and she just came to the Torture Department to undergo labor reform not long ago, and her potential for introversion was exposed this morning, so it is normal for her to have limitations in her thinking.

"Cheating is not my style. We succubi are all based on honesty," Rose said sternly, looked at the crowd, and raised the horn again, "Is there any mason or someone who is good at carving in the town?" Guy, raise your hand and let me see!"

Soon, five people raised their hands, all of whom were more robust adults.

"You guys, is anyone literate?"

"Have!"

Below came a hearty reply.

"Very good," Rose nodded, "Then I will give you a new decree of the lord of Helanbert Town, and what I said just now and some amendments to the original decree will be on it—you Responsible for finding a stone to engrave these decrees on, make a stele, and stand in the central square! Let everyone see it!"

"You five, this is the advance payment for you!"

Rose grabbed five silver coins from her pocket and accurately threw them in front of the five guys who raised their hands.

62 Fishing in another world, never air force!

The purchasing power of a common silver coin in the Sieg Republic is almost equivalent to the daily expenses of an ordinary family of three for half a month.

In a remote town like Herlander, it is even more resistant to flowers.

One silver coin per person is enough to make these five stonemasons and young people who know some carving skills excited!

You know, when you become the servants of those noble lords and knight lords, you can get about five or six silver coins a month as a reward!

And that's just the prepaid part!

Undoubtedly, Rose's behavior once again improved the residents' impression of her a lot.

In addition, everyone has a lot of expectations for the jobs that may need to be hired in the future just mentioned.

For Rose, though, her work schedule in town is pretty much over for today!

The job of recruiting people... is not in a hurry for the time being.

I just said a lot of words with a loudspeaker, and arranged for people to erect a stone monument. I have done enough!

How to build those new projects will be discussed tomorrow.

Besides, the funding from the Demon King has not yet arrived.

You can't use your own private savings to pad it all, can you?

"Tina, go back to the Demon King's Tower and continue your daily work—if you're done, take time to come to the square to guide the work of engraving decrees and erecting stone monuments."

"Isabella...Well, you can move out some of the stones and wood from the warehouse. You don't need too much, just keep half of it, and put it in the open space in the south of the town."

After arranging things for the two of them, Rose took out the "Helanbert Town Decree" written by hand while waiting for the magic circle to take effect yesterday, and threw it to the one of the five responsible persons who just said he could read.

The number of words is not too many, except that the taxation, construction and lord's duties mentioned just now can be written in the form of decrees, and the part about the land is only more popular than the original law and strict law in mainland countries. A little bit more advanced.

Rose still considered the color of the times and the acceptance of the current residents. For example, the first article of the opening article is such a simple and unpretentious truth that "the murderer pays for his life, the wounder goes to jail, and the fight goes to jail".

After arranging today's work, Rose did not forget to spread the word to the people who were expecting a high reward of a silver coin.

"After the Stele of Herland Bate's Decree is erected, several bulletin boards will be erected next to it, and new policies will be posted on them when the new policy is introduced—when the Lord's Mansion starts recruiting, it will be announced in advance! Everyone agrees. If you meet the conditions, remember to sign up!"

After speaking, Rose is ready to exercise her sacred right to fish!

"Okay, everyone leave!"

Announced like this, although the crowd did not disperse immediately, and Isabella and Tina did not move, but Rose disappeared as soon as the words were spoken!

She had already appeared by the river outside the town.

Today, she plans to make some river delicacies by herself to try.

As a "fishing" expert, how can you not be proficient in fishing?

Fishing, a leisurely and time-killing sport, is very suitable for Rose.

It's a pity that after coming to this world, I haven't had the opportunity to enjoy the leisurely life of fishing all day long.

After all, there is no water near the Demon King City.

In the entire Demon King City, the places where the most liquids gather are several large bathhouses in the bathing tower for demons and monsters who like to take a bath.

Although the inside is liquid, it is basically either acid or lava, and some are even asphalt in nature. If you don't use some alloy to rub the wire, the fishing line can be corroded or melted when it goes in.

And in the bathhouse, even if it is a human bathhouse, there must be no fish.

Rose deeply regrets this.

And ever since she came to Helanbert Town and discovered that the rivers here are rich in aquatic products, and there are even alive and kicking monsters, Rose has become much more excited!

Before going to bed last night, she pulled out the fishing suit she had made a long time ago from under the warehouse, and stuffed it into her magic bag.

Rods, rod holders, fishing bench, umbrellas, toolbox with different hooks and baits, and water tank.

The umbrella was set up, the folding deck chair was put away, the fishing hook was selected, the nest was hung and the bait was lowered in one go, and then Rose lay down beautifully.

"The first shot in another world, never the air force!"

Crossing her legs, looking at the clean and pollution-free river in Herland Bayt Town, with dense forests and blue sky on the other side of the river, Rose felt completely comfortable.

This moment of tranquility is what Rose has been pursuing all along!

And before lying down for a few minutes, the fishing rod shook, as if something had been hooked!

"So fast! Is this wild fishing in an undeveloped watershed!"

Rose was shocked and began to draw in the rod, even feeling quite heavy in the hand!

If she hadn't treated it with magic power when she built this fishing rod, and the toughness was comparable to the professional fishing gear in her previous life, I'm afraid it would have been broken by now!

However, the thing on the opposite side didn't seem to be struggling, it just simply "sinked"!

As a succubus, Rose's power is not too outrageous most of the time, and she doesn't want to use magic power for fun-filled activities like fishing.

After collecting the pole slowly for a long time, the underwater thing finally broke through the water surface and emerged!

"I see that my first rod has caught... Oh, what the hell is this?!"

Rose looked at the thing that came out of the water, and couldn't help but swear.

I saw a... wet wooden box hanging on the hook at the end of the fishing rod.

It looked old and worn, with rusty brass trim and a quaint keyhole.

Very classic "treasure box" shape.

Rose dragged the thing, which was almost as long as her own arm, to the shore, lost in thought.

"This shape is too classic, and... it turns out that you can really catch a 'treasure box' when fishing in another world..."

Rose only felt that all these revealed a classic atmosphere.

But it's reasonable to think about it, after all, there seemed to be a sunken ship under the water before.

But she decided not to open for now.

It's fine if you usually give out gold and silver treasures...

If treasure chest monsters, cursed weapons, vampires and other things are opened, today's fishing plan will definitely be ruined.

So anyway, the box hasn't moved yet, so Rose doesn't care.

However, this also reminded Rose that although monsters would be transported away by the magic circle, the current magic circle still has many limitations.

For example, if the residents of the town also catch strange things from fishing, it is also very dangerous!

Therefore, those magic circles that were arranged yesterday still need to be perfected by myself!

However, all of this has to wait for the fishing... Ah no, after the fishing activity is over!

63 Free dinner!

The next fishing went smoothly, and no treasure chests or other weird things were caught. Except for a bastard, which was a surprise, the rest were normal things in the Lelche River Basin. fish.

However, each one is extraordinarily large.

Rose's water tank was designed according to the experience of her previous life, so it's not enough now.

She caught a total of eight freshwater fish and one bastard, and they all weighed about [-] kilograms on average, and the water tank could barely hold two or three fish at most.

Even if it fits, it is difficult for those fish to move.

And the size of that turtle is also the size of a large washbasin!It can only be put into the water tank obliquely or vertically!

This trip can already be said to be a "big harvest", and even let Rose see the potential of aquaculture here!

However, a good harvest also has its troubles.

In order to keep these fish alive, Rose had to create nine floating water spheres with water attribute magic, and put eight fish and one bastard in them respectively.

Although elemental magic is not Rose's specialty, but fortunately, it is not the kind of hard work.

After all, space magic can be regarded as the most difficult kind of all magic. What Rose has trained through this is her extremely strong and meticulous control ability over her own magic power.

It is not too difficult to use magic to create a water ball and keep it suspended.

If you specialize in water magic, some official-level magicians can also do it.

It's just that the magic power and control required to manipulate nine water polos at the same time probably require a very strong elite or extraordinary spellcaster to do it.

After catching nine fish, Rose stood up to look at the sun. It was almost afternoon, and it was time to go back to the Torture Tower to prepare dinner.
