《I sense it. Over there!》 Fel barked telepathically. I’d been clinging to his back, and sat up just enough to give myself a view of what was ahead of us. I was greeted with the sight of a vast expanse of water.

“That’s the Eremej River...?” I muttered. I’d been picturing, well, a river, but not one of this scale. It was so wide that I almost couldn’t see the other shore, and if someone had told me that it was a sea, I doubt I would’ve even questioned it.

I was a little overwhelmed by the sheer size of the river, but Fel’s telepathic voice soon snapped me out of my stupor. 《What are you gaping at? The river matters not. Our prey is over there!》 he said, gesturing with his snout.

I turned to look, and... Huh? That’s weird. My vision must be acting up because I had my eyes clamped shut for so long. I rubbed my eyes, and took another look at what was before us.

...Hm. Hmmm. Is my depth perception completely shot, or something? Because it sure looks like there’s a crab the size of a semi truck hanging out by the riverbank! It was outrageously, preposterously huge, and the snap of its massive pincers clamping shut was so loud, it practically shook the surrounding landscape.

“Okay, seriously, that’s too big to be real, isn’t it?” I said in a daze. It was a monster, sure, but that just wasn’t a good enough justification for a crab to be that huge.

《Indeed, it is larger than the one I ate previously. This will be a substantial meal,》 Fel said.

《A monster of that size is sure to fill even my stomach!》 Gon added.

《You said it! Dunno about that shell it’s got, though. Doesn’t look like it’d be very nice to sink your teeth into,》 Dora-chan noted.

《That’s okay! Even if it’s hard, Sui’ll eat it as long as it’s tasty!》 Sui declared.

《Ah, the shell, yes. It was not inedible, but neither did it taste especially good. It is the meat within the shell that is exceptional.》

I’m sorry, Fel, but does that mean you actually ate its shell the last time you took down one of these things? Then again, all of my familiars had been eating their prey raw until they met me, so it sort of stood to reason that they’d have chowed down on a shell or two.

“Just for the record, you’re not supposed to eat crab shells! Only the meat inside them is edible!” I said.

《Hm. Very well, then. We shall leave that part to you, and partake of the dish you make with it,》 said Fel.

“I know, I know,” I sighed.

《Grah hah hah! Now that’s something to look forward to!》 Gon exclaimed.

《Right? Let’s hurry up and take it down!》 Dora-chan agreed.

《Sui’ll pew-pew it right away!》

“Wha—Sui?!” I yelped as the slime leapt ahead of the rest of us, bouncing at a rapid pace toward the mad berserker crab on its own. “Guys!”

《Yeah, I see it too! Dangit, Sui, not fair! No running off on your own!》 Dora-chan shouted as he flew after Sui.
