Haha. I suppose that's a good point. Bokoblin heads are harder than a watermelon...

[ Don't mind if mr. vampire just sits down and pulls up a chunk of watermelon for himself, looking pleased with how things turned out.
Anyone else who may have been watching will be offered some melon as well as Jinwoo looks over--that question being asked making complete sense. Right. ]


--Ah, right. You're from a different world, I am not even sure if you'd have heard about it before.

I grew up in Japan, and when I was a teen, this tradition was called Suikawari.
'Suika' meaning 'melon,' and 'wari' meaning 'to split.'

It was a game thought up by young people, as watermelon could be pretty unwieldy to cut into at the beach--so making a game of hitting it until it split was thought to be far more fun.

To crack it in one hit is impressive.
