Here is another chapter just in spite of you)

"Miss Sarah?"

"Yes?" Replied Sarah with a tilt of her head.

Will opened another can of bait before finishing his question, "since the B rank sea turtle monster belongs to miss knight captain and miss knight captain is your vassal. Theoretical, this B ranked sea turtle monster carcass belongs you."

"I guess you have a point."

"So, do you have any need for the meat of the B rank sea turtle monster?"

"Not really," Answered Sarah with an inquiring gaze. "Do you need to use it?"

Will gave a slight nod. "Indeed I do. It would be very kind of you if you let me use some of the meat."

"For what exactly do you need it for, if I may ask?" Asked Sarah with an increasingly curious gaze.

"Typically, the higher quality the meat we use as bait, the more monsters that gather," answered Will without a second's hesitation. "If we used the sea turtle carcass as bait, a lot more sea monsters would gather at an even quicker pace."

"Is that so?" Said Sarah with an understanding nod.

"So may I have permission to use the turtle carcass as bait?"

"I'm pretty sure that Katarina will understand. You may use it as you see fit, sir phantom. The water attribute mana stone is off limits, as you are most likely aware."

"Of course miss Sarah. I will not lay a finger on the water attributed mana stone."

Will grabbed his knife and made his way to the sea turtle that had been left on the deck of his ship with an indifferent look. Although the sea turtle was completely still and looked very dead, when Will attempted to cut off his head, the turtle resisted and gave a dangerous snap at Will's hand.

"Oh? It seems the turtle is still alive. You really can't underestimate the vitality of a B ranked monster, whether or not it's harmless or not."

"It's still alive? How will you kill it," asked Sarah as she curiously popped her head from behind Will's back. "Will you not be able to kill it?"

"No worries there," said Will as he went to his bag once more to look for something he could use. In the end, he took out a small piece of wood. "Although most sea monsters are terrifyingly strong while in the sea or water, once we take them out onto dry land, they are basically only able to wave around their limbs uselessly and hope to land a lucky shot. Of course, unless they have legs that can walk on land. But thankfully, this turtle does not."

Will spun his knife around his fingers before grabbing it in reverse grip. "You might want to look away miss Sarah cause this will be a bloody and gruesome sight."

Sarah gave Will a scoff before saying, "Do not worry Sir Phantom, I am not some frail woman who would faint at the sight of blood and gore. You may proceed."

"Alright Miss Sarah, I warned you," shrugged Will as he suddenly lunged forward with the small wooden log. The Sea turtle reacted instantly and quickly shot out his head from within its shell and crushed the wooden log easily with its razor sharp beak. However, before the Turtle could retract its head back into his shell, Will stabbed the turtle in the neck and pushed it in deep. Now that a knife was stuck inside his neck, the turtle let out an indignant cry as it tried to stick its head back into his shell but found that he was unable to do so until the knife was dislodged from its flesh. While the turtle was preoccupied with the pain from the knife, Will grabbed two arrows from his quiver and thrusted them into the now vulnerable head of the turtle, more specifically its eyes.

The turtle let out an even more desperate cry as it blindly snapped its jaw into thin air as Will slowly and carefully pushed the arrow deeper into the sea turtle's skull. After about a minute of the turtle's struggling, its eyes went still as it laid there on the ship deck twitching like an electrocuted corpse.

After he had made sure that the turtle was completely dead, Will removed the knife in the turtle's neck and made sure to collect the blood that spurred out of the open wound. As he placed a jar under the faucet of red, he cleaned the blood off the knife before removing the two arrows that had penetrated deep into the turtle's inner head.

After the two arrows had been inspected for any damage and the blood flow from the sea turtle had lesson quite a bit, Will threw the vial of blood into the sea and started sawing off the turtle's head.

After the sea turtle's head had been completely sawed off, Will and Sarah waited on the ship peacefully.

They would either watch the swirl of sea monsters gather inside their giant somewhat circular net trap or watch the three knights struggle to catch another B ranked sea turtle and C ranked sea monsters.

"YOU IDIOT JEREMY! YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO HOLD THE ROD LIKE THAT! IF YOU HANDLE THE ROD IN THAT MANNER THEN IT WILL SNAP UNDER THE PRESSURE!"

"S-SORRY CAPTAIN! ILL TRY TO DO BETTER- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"GODDAMMIT! YOU GO HELP JEREMY! I FEEL THAT THIS STUPID B RANKED TURTLE IS STARTING TO TIRE ITSELF!"

"YES MAAM!"

"AHAHAHAH! TWO B RANKED WATER ATTRIBUTED MANA STONES IN ONE DAY? HIS HIGHNESS WILL BE PLEASED!"

"What a beautiful day isn't it Miss Sarah?"

"Indeed it is."
