"Galat, horned rabbit in the bush in front of the right diagonal"
"Yes!
"Jin, mushrooms at your feet. Be an ingredient in medicine."
"Yes, yes, all the time"
"Shiloumal, deer in the shadow of a tree about 20m to the left"
"Wow!"
"Slalin, the anagma is only a child, so bring it back to the nest"
"... (Prunting)"
"Solomon left a message. Sleep in your bag."
"Cu-y......"
"Ricky, there are two pigeons overhead. Either make sure you drop it."
"... ok"
The day after the banquet, we were coming to the woods where Jin and the others were talking. Jin said "half a day" was walking time so I used my carriage and arrived in the woods in a few hours.
This forest is not that big, but they say there are rivers and ponds nearby, and there were quite a few small to medium-sized creatures.
And luckily, there was no sign of adventurers or hunters coming recently, and the animals' vigilance had waned.
From within less than an hour into the woods, there was a harvest there.
"Time to take a break and move individually?
Where some prey was hunted, I decided to pinch the break.
"" Roger, Leader!
"… Copy"
Jin and Garat are in a good mood because they have achieved more than they thought.
Ricky, on the other hand, seems a little confused about how the Jins are doing.
"No, you were right to invite Tenma! Come on, Galat!
"Oh, sure! If we were alone, we wouldn't have made it this easy to hunt!
Until this point, I had come this far in the process of searching for prey and reporting it to the Jins, and the Jins hunting it... In the meantime, I'm not preying on myself.
At first I tried to go to jail too, but I stopped at Jin.
Anything, "If I go to jail until you, I can bias my workload. At the time of this rule, you should separate the guy who searches from the guy who hunts".
So when I discovered it, I split the job between someone, and the shaken one goes to jail.
And that's the hazy shape.
Anyway, I have Exploration, so I know who my prey is and how many it is nearby. Besides, Gin and Garratt are originally high-level adventurers, and I'm just saying that Ricky is adventurous with basic solos, and his skill is pretty good. In addition to that, it is slalin and silowmall.
Shiloumal was only a wolf and he was good at hunting, and leading up to Slalin, he was turned into a worker who said that even wildlife would turn around behind him without even noticing.
Besides, there were some cases (anagmas only restrained) where they came to a nest as they had caught anagmas earlier.
Note that Solomon is not suitable for hunting in the woods, so he is waiting in his bag.
"I wish Namitaro had come too!
"Jin, he's a carp for once, for once."
As Jin said, Namitaro did not come to this hunt.
Namitaloh said, "I'm a fish. I don't like forests."
I have a lot to go into, but that's why Namitaro remains in the mansion.
Because I think Menace and Leena, and Namitaro and Blanca and Aina are the only ones who know we're here to hunt.
I told my grandfathers for once, but they were drunk, so you wouldn't remember.
"Well, I told Aina, so you're okay."
Whimpering about that, I kept preparing for lunch.
When I say prep, I just take it out because I came in a bag with leftovers from yesterday's banquet and stuff.
"So Tenma. When the break is over, we'll each move individually this time. I don't mind moving in pieces, but who stays in this place?
"We have to secure the base and... are you going to come back for a change?
Hearing the words of Jin and Galat, Slalin and Shiloumal came forward.
"I'm fine. Slalin and Shiloumal remain in this hub. These two will never get behind these demons or animals."
Jin and the others were snorting at my words.
"And in case you get lost, you should call Silowmall out loud. If not in an extremely remote place, a voice should reach Shiloumal. Or if you walk along a nearby river, you'll be able to get near this stronghold."
There's a big river running near where we're based right now. So if we go up or down that river, we should be able to come this close. In the worst case scenario, I can use exploration.
And there's another reason to leave the slurrins behind.
That's because I'm the only one who doesn't increase the number of hunters.
When they move individually, the slurrins naturally follow me. If that happens, I'll be the only one with more prey. It's also extremely...
I know that Jin and Garat will never complain about this, but Ricky doesn't know what to think, and if the difference is too much, the Jins may not feel good either.
Besides, these individual hunts are also a kind of game.
So you should hunt alone as much as you can.
However, Solomon decides to take him. I've never been outside before, so I'd better get it out somewhere I opened it.
"I don't have to worry about it... well, if you would, it would have been there. Well, thank you!
Gin and Garratt must have figured out what I was thinking. I don't think Ricky noticed.
"Well, let's have dinner for now"
In Garratt's words, we're going to drag the rice in. After finishing our meal in a few minutes, we wandered off into the woods.
"Whoa! Look at the herbs! Is this a shoga?
I was more focused on finding edible plants than on looking for prey.
This forest is surprisingly full of edible plants and medicinal herbs, and I was more grateful to you.
"This is... like a go-go garlic..."
I decided to use an appraisal for suspicious or edible items.
Many of these weeds are unknown to amateurs, and sometimes even skilled people say they can make mistakes.
Therefore, the appraisal is very active. Most of all, even though I know if it can be effective or edible, I don't even know how to eat it, so I'll have to find out when I get home, but even if I don't know, I don't have a problem with it because it just turns into slurrin rice.
"Whoa! This is a truffle!
As I watched my feet, I found some black and round objects. When I took one of them and used the appraisal, I found out that the identity was "black diamond" and that it was black truffle.
"Wow, there's at least ten of them... Didn't you mean black diamonds are wonky?
I pick up the truffles that were at my feet and gather them, thinking, etc.
Fifteen of them grew within my reach alone, and after a short walk from there, I was able to find two more places where the truffles were swarming.
"Twenty-nine in all... isn't this going to be a lot of money?
I don't know how much truffles are worth in this world, but there have been times in previous life when they were worth tens of thousands of yen at 100g.
Of the 29, there are 10 objects in excess of 100 g, otherwise the size of 50 g or not.
Of over 100g, the biggest would be over 200g.
"Do you want to keep this or... eat at home? Eina might know how to cook."
And so on, messing with a smaller truffle on his palm, Solomon, who decided it was food, turned it round only.
"Gu ~ i ~"
Plus, you didn't like it, I spit it out after a few bites.
"Guh!"
I dropped my fist bone without saying anything the moment Solomon spit it out. Earlier ringing was Solomon's scream.
Not at all, there was nothing alarming! I'm glad it was a small thing, but what's with the whole truffle spitting out! You've never even eaten me!... and preached for a while and locked him in the bag.
After preaching Solomon, I looked around, but decided to give up collecting truffles that were deep underground or too small to dig out.
"All right! Let's remember about this place!
After that, we went back to gathering weeds and stuff, but we couldn't find anything more than truffles, so we went back to the base.
"Hey Tenma! You were too late!
"Did you pick something up?
Jin and Garat were battling side by side with their hunted prey.
"You win me!
"No, it's me!
Gin's prey is pigs. It's not that big an individual, but it seems rounded and greasy.
By contrast, Galat's prey is a stag. This one is a pretty big individual, with fine horns growing.
"" Tenma! Judgment! "
"You can draw."
It was the two of you who said you weren't satisfied with my decision, but you actually think this decision is reasonable.
In the value of meat, pigs are better, and stag meat is considerably inferior in price. Other materials, however, are valuable because they have many uses for fur and horns are also used for medicines.
They were convinced to explain that, but were trying to find out what I scored instead.
When I tried to get the truffle out, I just...
"What are you doing?
Ricky's back. The two of them turn their targets into Ricky and loom.
"Is it prey? Fine."
That's what Ricky took out the prey...
"Three pigs!
"Two deer!
It was slightly above the two of us.
"" I lost...... the tenma!
To both of them, I took out what I had collected. They are full of cages. That's two.
"Are you serious..."
"You don't have to be bad, it's worth more than our prey..."
It's the two people who get hit, but I decided to stop them.
At this point, it should be noted that Ricky still has an extra look.
"Some of these things."
Three people who don't know what came out for a moment when they serve the truffle I set aside.
Of those, Galat was the first to notice that it was a truffle.
"Hey... this is no way, is it me... black diamond, truffle?
That's the dog beast man. Even in my previous life, I used pigs or dogs when I was looking for truffles.
In Garratt's words, Jin and Ricky seem to have figured out who this guy is, too.
"Seriously!
"I've never seen it before..."
They're both out of line. Are you still saying that truffles were truffles in this world?
"Solomon ate one..."
Solomon ate me, and I got a reaction from Shiloumal approaching me, but I put it in my bag before Shiloumal could get my nose close.
Shiloumal looked disgruntled, but I can tell. This guy was gonna eat a truffle! and…
Anyway, the game of prey came to be called my win, and now I'm going hunting in a group. Let me direct you in the opposite direction from where I found the truffle, but don't feel bad...
Jin, who was walking in the lead, suddenly stopped and began to be vigilant around.
Looking at what Jin pointed out, there were signs of how many choices had been made on the ground, and there were signs of something disputing.
"That's weird indeed...... OK, let's turn back! The sun should be setting soon. Let's reveal the night earlier."
Jin and Garratt agreed with me on the safety measures, but Ricky seemed to disagree.
"Why not! Maybe it'll be gold! Even powerful demons wouldn't be enemies if they had all this ment!
Seriously, you're confident in your power, and you want to go knock them out because the powerful are there. But...
"Aiming for unidentified things in the dark is less than amateur. Stop it."
It had been cut off by the gin with bassari.
"Jin may say the same thing. Besides, there's the judgment of Tenma, the leader of this party, and the majority is against it. If you say so, wait till morning."
Garratt also explains to Ricky why he disagrees. Ricky was also obviously told by two people above him, reluctantly pulling back.
That night, I rescheduled a little. The first plan was to move individually at night, but since there was likely to be an unidentified creature, we all decided to stay vigilant.
As of now, my exploration has not caught a creature like that, but the more distant the exploration, the less precise it will be, so if the other person is a creature that is difficult to catch on to the exploration, it has to be careful that it was approached as soon as it was caught off guard, there is no such thing.
Just in case, you can't delude Shiloumal until it stinks, because it's also keeping him alert.
At night, I stayed as quiet as possible and at least one of them stayed awake.
Fortunately, tea was made from the wild grass that was growing nearby, so I could do enough to distract myself.
Because of this tea, it's pretty bitter and sinister. So I had a bad reputation other than mine.
Jin said, "Bitter, is your tongue crazy?," he said.
Galat said, "It's bitter, but it's too tannic!" diluted with hot water.
Ricky said, "Give me some sugar, honey or something!" She was sweetening and drinking.
Shiloumal and Solomon turned that way and only Slalin drank heavily.
Well, I use this wild grass tea for the degree of concealed taste when blended, so this is the only thing that clearly divides my taste, so I can't help it.
However, thanks to its flavour, everyone seemed to have flown drowsiness and was able to spend the morning without problems.
Until morning...
First thing in the morning, Ricky suggested we move individually from first thing in the morning. Gin and the others agreed that that would be good because they held Ricky down yesterday.
I agreed because I had the same idea, but I couldn't predict at this point that this would lead to a later struggle.
"In the meantime, yesterday, so let's say we hunt outside."
As a minimum rule, I decided not to go where it was rough yesterday, and scattered them each.
This time again, Slalin and Shiloumal left a message, and Solomon joined the voicemail.
Looks like he was pissed off yesterday. Could have been a little too angry.
Today, I ran to the one ahead where I found the truffle.
I slowed down a little where I found the truffle, but I still couldn't find it.
Beyond that, there were fewer trees, and instead, objects like Kumazasa were shrouded.
"It's going to be tea, so why don't you take some home?"
Picking and picking a beautiful spot for the sardine leaves, a little further away, there was a sign of a large creature.
The number of signs is seven. One of them is a small one.
As I approached him, hiding in a saucer, he was about 50 meters away with a big white creature.
"Is that... a cow?" Appraisal ""
Race... White-haired buffalo A-rank equivalent
And out. A white-haired buffalo... one is a calf. It's not a demon, it's like a kind of cow.
However, unlike regular cows, I have eight legs. It is the shape of another leg growing before and after the normal cow's foot position. And I have four horns in my head.
"I haven't heard of a cow like that coming out around here... did you come from anywhere else then?
Anyway, if it's a cow, the meat would be good. I just want to hunt one head or so somehow...
That's what I think, and when I'm asking for gaps while erasing the signs, something's wrong.
Looks like the biggest buffalo in that herd is being attacked by four other buffaloes.
Behind the great buffalo lies a calf and a scalpel.
"What? Is that a meth setup?
It must be hard to leave offspring in the wild... well, humans are the same...
"But a chance... those four heads are okay to hunt, maybe, I'm sure..."
For a moment, I lost my mind when I preached to Tida and the others, but if it was to leave the male and female's turn, it would be fine. Besides, it doesn't originally live around here, it's like an alien species.
Let's just say that...
Four heads continued to attack while they were thinking about it, and the white-haired buffalo under attack was dyeing its white body with their own blood.
"Then go......" Air Cutter ""
With the wind magic that sets the aim, he chops off the neck of four white-haired buffaloes.
The four heads that I hadn't noticed fell asleep after being decapitated.
As we approach, the four heads are in a state of death with their throats slit, but they are still alive.
"Do you want to drain blood... eh - more like this?
I'm dirt magic, I make four slopes a little bigger than a white-haired buffalo, and use Guardian Giganto, the guardian of the giant, to fix the cows on it.
Down the hill, we dig holes and drop blood. I put a cut in the thick blood vessels (all four) on the back leg once to make the air easier to get in. I don't know if there's any of this, but it bleeds downstairs, so I thought it would be better to have an air hole up there, too.
When other beasts came along in the middle of work, it was troublesome, so I tried not to leak the smell of blood with wind magic.
"So, you're the only ones left..."
Behind me, I spoke to a white-haired buffalo watching my work. I don't think he understands my words, but the moment he turns around, the males are getting up and starting to intimidate him.
"I'm not going to hunt you guys, so just go. I'll treat my injuries with the service."
I was in a good mood to hunt the big man, and I turned to the male for recovery magic.
The wound disappeared thanks to healing magic, but the male never moved the scene because the damage was not lost.
Instead, a calf approached me.
Males and females squeal and call calves, but calves don't mind coming up to me and smelling my body and bag.
"You want this?
When I took out the bears I had just picked and took them to the tip of the calf's nose, the calf started eating the bears looking delicious.
"A cow eats a bear too..."
A little surprised by the edibility of the cow, the calf quickly ate all the bear zasa.
It was the wary males and females at first, but you found out that I had no hostility, so I grew up a little bit.
Then, some time later, the rally time approached where much of the blood had been drained.
"I haven't lost my blood yet... well, can I handle it later"
Four white-haired buffaloes were bagged, frozen with blood, and then treated with soil on them.
"Okay, go... don't follow me..."
A calf follows me. Apparently you've been successful in feeding...... not having trouble being followed.
If you think so, the male and female cows also try to follow you.
Think about it, when I'm gone from here, the magic cuts off and the smell of blood fills the area. Then the carnivorous beast will come.
Male cows won't lose most of the carnivores, but now they're injured and slow moving, plus females and calves. It will be difficult to protect the two heads.
Then there's no hostility, and it's likely more helpful to follow me who instantly killed four white-haired buffaloes.
I may be wrong, but I concluded so myself.
So...
"If you're coming with me, listen to me. I'm not going to eat it if I'm going to be a grownup... then get in here."
That's what I said, and I spread the mouth of the bag that was putting the slurrins in.
At first, he was concerned about the smell of Shiloumal and Solomon (the large carnivore), or he looked confused, but he went on to watch the calf go in.
"You're here, Tenma..."
"A battle!
Jin and Garat were home first again, waiting for me.
"How about that!
The fruit of the gin hunt is a deer in two pigs, followed by mushrooms and wild grass.
"Oh, my God, I'm up there!
Galat has one deer in one pig and five horned rabbits.
"Er... is it another draw?
"We have mushrooms this time, too!
"Why! You got a lot of mine!
Jin and Garat say so, but I think it's a reasonable result this time around.
"Jin's mushrooms... this is all poison mushrooms. That's useless too... wild grass can be a pill too, but that's just cheap wound medicine ingredients. How about a Galat's Horned Rabbit for a pig with five?
Therefore, considering individual differences and so on, this time it was also a draw.
"One!"
Talking to the Jins, Shiloumal was smelling the bag.
"Oh, have you noticed the boulder... look, Shiloumal, and Solomon. These guys are buddies, so never try to eat them."
When I said that and let the cows out of the bag, the jinns were more surprised than the cows.
"Oh, my God, that's not white hair!
"Hey, hey! You're gonna strangle me, or I'm gonna help you strangle you! So split it up a little!
Gin and Garratt are so excited. Apparently, white-haired buffaloes fall into the luxury category of meat.
"No, they just protected it. I've done something else. This one."
Only get the face of a white-haired buffalo out of the bag. Silomar and Solomon were reflexively drooling.
"All right, Tenma! Let's eat, let's eat now!
"You're a BBQ first!
Two in a runaway mood, but I can't eat them yet.
"No, because you haven't dismantled or done anything. Even if I eat it, I'll be home. I'll call you when I eat, so be patient now."
Absolutely! and Jin and Galat aligning their voices. Kind of feels like more Shiloumals.
"Still, Ricky's late...... do you want to look a little"
When I used it a little further away from Jin and the others to spread Exploration out of my position, I stayed closer than I thought. It is about 2 km or not. But there's something wrong with the movement.
"Running away from something?
Ricky's movements are moving into zigzags or suddenly inverting.
"Do you want to spread it out a little more...... this is haha!
The thing that preceded the expansion of Exploration, it's a creature of considerable size. They have 'cover-ups', and they can't 'appraise' them.
That's when I heard some kind of roar. Pretty big.
"Jin, there was a sign of Ricky with this ringing! Maybe he's being attacked by something!
I immediately evacuated the cows to their bags and ran out in Ricky's direction.
Jin and the others run out in response to my words.
The Shilowmals were a little late, but soon caught up.
Running out and about enough, I heard something running around knocking down the trees.
The ringing is getting louder too.
Ahead through the trees, I saw the Lord of his roar.
