Chapter 141 Good Weather for Fishing

Tulio seemed to go more in the direction of actual fish, but the women were more daring with bright colors like red and yellow.

In fact, that's exactly what the fake bait is good for. This mysterious tendency is a response to fish that are clearly not there taking the bait.

For example, there is a fake fish bait that is shaped like an earthworm, and these types of fake fish baits even include fluorescent colors. In fact, it would be really strange if there was a fluorescent earthworm.

But the fish apparently looked delicious. Perhaps if there were researchers present, there would be some explanation, but unfortunately, Ye Kai had no such knowledge.

Finally, on a sunny day, they happily made fake bait while eating lunch. The rain stopped yesterday evening and the water receded in the morning. Today is a good day for fishing.

As they prepared to enter the river, the Senel birds actually asked them to ride on them. It seemed that while enjoying the food, they also wanted some help and were ready to provide them with a footing to stand on.

They cast their own fake bait. Unexpectedly, the first person to catch a fish was Fino. She happily put a 30-centimeter-long fish into the fish basket. This was also what Ye Kai prepared last night.

Everyone was fishing, but Ye Kai was one step ahead in terms of technique. He mastered the manipulation of the rod and added movements to the fake bait to lure the prey. Seeing this, Cham also began to imitate and successfully caught some fish.

When the harvest gradually became abundant, only Ye Kai put away his fishing rod and began to make dried fish. He sprinkled some with salt lightly, some of which were used as snacks for Senel birds, some were pickled in the ordinary way, and some were experimentally coated with fish sauce.

The raw dried fish they had prepared earlier was already very delicious. They split the fish in half and chewed on it, enjoying the sunny day.

"Is it tasty?"

"tasty!"

During the day, they replenished their salt intake and completed their task. They would have to provide some more for the other three people later.

“Bait!”

Chaim seemed to have caught something big. They didn't need help because the operation had been explained in the morning. She pulled out her line, then took control of the reel, pulled the brake, picked up the reel's leaf spring, and pulled the line out, letting the fish swim in the water.

When the fish moved sideways, she responded by laying the rod flat and adjusting the reel movement to minimize the amount of line coming out.

“That’s great. That way you can feel where the fish are going.”

“Looks like a seasoned guy, Chaim, is it my imagination?”

“Hoo-hoo?”

"Meow?"

With steady control of the rod and reel, the fish was gradually pulled toward the shore. When Ye Kai went to help catch it, the fish looked a little tired.

He reached into the gills easily, took the fish out, held out his left hand, and kissed the rod. The fish was 80 centimeters long, a good size. Not as big as yesterday's catch, but a good catch nonetheless.

"How's it going? Is there enough food for tonight?"

“Of course it’s enough. I’ll figure out how to cook it while I deal with the other fish.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

In short, they first processed the fish in a bloody way and then took it to the "warehouse" for processing.

Emperor Rufan Metaeus Torchius of Treba declared: "Assemble the army quickly. Understand that this is a battle to retake my land. My decree is like God's will." A sense of urgency was hidden in the eyes of the sixty-year-old emperor.

Frequent Phrygian invasions ended in failure. The Holzlein invasion nine years ago ended in a one-sided failure despite full preparations. In order to avoid counter-invasion, large state-level compensation is essential.

If this continues, it will be unacceptable to gain nothing during my reign. It is unbearable to be called an incompetent emperor who brought great economic damage to the country and become a topic of conversation for future generations. If I cannot expand my territory a little, that is certain.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. The timing of recruiting soldiers was not good, and the equipment was not ready. But thanks to Your Majesty's wise vision, the personnel we sent to the mines have produced results, and the organization work is proceeding in an orderly manner. It will take some time."

"Humph, your incompetence was also saved by my good ideas. If you let me wait a little longer, you can consider sending it to the mines yourself, but there is nothing I can do. I will give you some leniency. Thank you."

"Yes! Your Majesty's tolerance, I am deeply moved. In order to follow your Majesty's orders, I will do my best."

Minister of War Kursas knelt down to accept the imperial edict.

Originally, this was not a suitable time to raise an invading army. If soldiers were recruited at this time, farmland would have to be abandoned, and a large number of people would die of famine for a period of time. This should have been avoided through national reserves.

However, in order to replenish equipment, miners were mobilized and farmers were forced to work, resulting in the inability of arable land due to a lack of male labor to produce enough crops. A large number of people were displaced due to continuous tax increases, and the food self-sufficiency rate dropped sharply.

The Minister of War accepted the imperial edict, but was unable to put pressure on other ministers. They all knew that the current situation was like this.

There is no detailed record of the founding of the Treba Empire. Only the history of the founding of the country by the blood clan of the gods who conveyed the revelation to the brave has been preserved. However, this is not something that can be called history, but more like a fairy tale.

The story goes that long ago, the people of an advanced magic kingdom led by a divine messenger settled in the west and became the ancestors of the Treba Empire. King Rufan's words are based on this founding history, and he regards himself as the agent of God and his words as the will of God.

However, no one believed this to be true. If this were true, the Treba Empire would not have become a great magical power.

Magical techniques may be lost over time, but it is impossible for everything to be lost. If there is no part that remains that is closely related to life, it would be a strange story. Furthermore, it would not be strange even if there is a special magic system developed from it.

However, there is no noticeable difference in Treba's magical skills in the west, or even in the Sept. region across the Magic Mountains, and further east.

In short, King Treba is the heir of the God's Messenger family and is just a decoration of the country.
