And so, we walked along the beach in search of more giant dragonflies. The sandy part of the beach wasn’t very wide and it had steep cliffs on either side of it. As I walked from one end to the other, I ran into something strange. It wasn’t a dragonfly. It wasn’t even a living creature. It sat, dignified and serene, at the border between the beach and the forest.

“A stone monument? I don’t see an inscription...but it’s definitely man-made.”

“...?”

“Mmm?”

It was a rectangular pillar that reached to about the height of my chest. Each side looked to be about thirty centimeters. It was probably originally made of white stone, but it was now a charcoal black, dark enough that you could have assumed the stones were gray to begin with, and its bottom half was covered in thick moss. It looked like it had been left here for a long time. At the very top of the pillar was a round indentation, as if something was meant to be placed there. From a gaming perspective, I probably had to place a key item here to progress an event. But I had no clue what that would be. I hadn’t obtained any round items in this event.

“There aren’t any more dragonflies, so I guess we have to go into the forest. Besides, we need to search for clues about this blatantly event-related pedestal.”

“...!’

“Squeak squeak!”

Everyone’s on board. They’ve always got my back!

“All right, into the woo—”

“Hum-humm!”

Just as Himka had earlier, someone interrupted my proclamation with a shout.

“Reflet, what’s up? Is there another Meganeura?”

“Humm! Hum!”

“The ocean?”

Reflet was pointing incessantly towards the water. But there was nothi— No, yeah, there was a huge shadow beneath the waves. It didn’t seem to be heading towards us but was instead leisurely swimming along the shore. Could it have been the mysterious monster that attacked us earlier?

I held my breath as I watched the shadow. Suddenly it grew darker. It must have gotten closer to the surface of the water. Then, as we watched, the water in front of us swelled, and the giant shadow burst through the surface, revealing itself.

“Gshaaaa!”

“Whaaaaat? Are you serious?!”

“Hum-humm!”

At a glance, it looked like a giant sea snake had sprung out of the water. But that wasn’t what it was. This thing’s massive body looked more like a sea lion’s, and it was from that blubbery torso that its long, snakelike neck grew.

“A plesiosaur?”

That’s right. The creature before me was unmistakably a plesiosaur, a marine reptile. I managed to appraise it in time and identified it as an Event Plesio. Also, it had an enemy marker. This was undoubtedly the mystery monster that had attacked our boat.

“W-Wow. A real, live plesiosaur!”

I was actually a bit of a dinosaur fan. Plesiosaurs were a pretty popular species, so I couldn’t not geek out. I had never taken a faster screenshot. I moved even faster than I typically did when taking cute pics of my monsters.

Man, I’m so glad I’m playing this game. Who knew I’d get up close and personal with a plesiosaur?!

“Wait, does that mean this fern forest.
