Regarding the long sword, I also showed the “general model” to Rike and she said, “It’s great, but it’s different from the one you showed me at that time though.” That was her impression. I will show how to do it tomorrow, and for today we will only make the mold for that.

Samia returned by the time the mold has dried and I had put off the fire in the smithy.

“I’m home.”

“Oh, welcome home. How was it?”

When I asked, Samia laughed and showed a complacent smile,

“Since you’re asking for it, I hunted a tree deer for you!”

She proudly said so.

“Oh, you did it. Today too, did you sink it in the lake?”

“Yeah. I have to extract the blood and cool it or else it will taste bad.”

There has been an increase in the number of residents here and furthermore, there will be no problem even if a little more food is secured from now on.

“Alright then, I’ll prepare the food first so both of you should wipe your bodies.”

“Okay”

“Understood”

For our dinner, since I run out of root vegetables, I will make something like a porridge with the barley, meat and bean soup. It has a lot of protein but it should be fine because our work requires our body to move.

“Rike, would you like to go with us tomorrow? We’ll be carrying the deer you see.”

“Is that ok?”

“It’s better to have more people.”

“Then I’ll go with you.”

“Un, I’ll be counting on you.”

At some point, it can be done even with only two people, but getting familiar with the work around here shouldn’t be a bad thing… should be.

“Speaking of which, uhm boss…”

“Hn? What is it?”

“Isn’t it about time to restock iron and charcoal? Do you have a supplier?”

“Hmm, that’s right…”

Although it doesn’t mean that it will run out in a day or two, it’s really about time to worry about the amount of iron ore and charcoal on hand. Up until now, I’m using the materials I received, so sales were entirely profitable, but from this point on, I will incur costs for my materials. So it is now necessary to sell the “luxury models” with the same cost and good interest rate.

However, it really can’t be helped without raw materials.

“I only started working lately, so I don’t have supplier yet. For the time being, I think it will likely last for a month…”

“During that time, we have to find a place to buy it, is that right?”

“Un. The next time we go to town, I will ask Marius-san or the peddler guy when I see him.”

“Me too, I’ll try to contact someone.”

“I’m counting on you.”

For now, I have no choice but to leave it to fate. Ah right!,

“Samia”

“Hn?”

“How is your arrowhead doing?”

“It’s still in great shape. When the tree deer turns into a big one, the skin around its back becomes hard. There are times when I can’t pierce it with my arrowhead before, but I can now pierce it without any difficulty.”

“Is that so? Oh yeah, you said that I shouldn’t give the heart to the wolves right? What should I do with it then?”

“Bury it in the soil of the forest.”

“Bury it?”

“Un. That’s how I return its soul to the forest. Then the forest will give it a new life.”

“I see…”

Is it like a primitive belief? Rike is also very much impressed, it seems to be the beastmen’s custom or it could be a custom applied only in this forest.

“Samia will have a break tomorrow after dealing with the deer right? Can you help me again?”Translated by Yume Neiji

“Oh, is that okay?”

“I don’t really mind.”

In this way, I think it would be nice if Samia would be able to do the work of Rike and Rike would be able to help Samia’s work, but, will it happen?

The next day, the three of us head to the lake. I brought the water vat and an axe. First, I will make a log carrier (like a roof rack), but when I tried to cut trees with the axe,

“Oh, b-boss! What is this?!”

“Hn? Ah, this axe?”

“Axe huh, this is really great!”

Rike was very excited. I should have shown it to her yesterday…

“Do you want to try it?”

“Is that alright!?”

“Yeah. Be careful, don’t be reckless or you’ll cut yourself.”

“Yes!”

Rike holds the axe I passed to her. Somehow, she looks like an amazing dwarf.

“Ok, I’m doing it!”

Rike hits the axe against the tree. Ko-on!, a pleasant sound echoed out but it looks like nothing is happening. Translated by Yume Neiji

“?”

Rike looks curious so I call out,

“It’s dangerous so don’t get near to it.”

“Eh? Y-Yes!”

Rike appeals to me, after I stopped her.

“It made a sound but there was no response…”

That’s just right.

“Oh- well, it’s about time.”

“?”

Just then, when Rike looked back, the tree falls down on the opposite side where she hit the axe.

“Eh—!?”

Rike exclaimed in a loud voice. Samia says,

“That’s shocking right? When I first saw it, I was a little uncomfortable. Despite that, Eizou looked calm.”

Samia expressed her sympathy. Did she really think of such thing in the past?

“Anyways, it cuts like that so be careful with it.”

“I-I understand.”

Rike feels nervous but it seems that she had grasped the trick because just like a while ago, about 4 trees are cut down and processed into logs.

“Your workmanship is pretty good.”

“I did something similar.”

Hmm, that’s normal since she has experience it before and besides, we are only going to build an extension. We then tie the logs together with a rope.

“Alright then, let’s go pull it up.”

After I called out, with splashing sound, Samia went into the lake where she sank the tree deer. It is pretty deep. With our heights, me and Samia can afford going in but Rike may barely reach it.Please read at yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com

“Rike, wait for a while here.”

“Yes”

Then, when I headed to the area where Samia is, the sunken deer is of a considerable size. It may be over 2 meters long.

“Oh, it’s pretty big!”

“Right? I injured it once but it still escaped, it took me a while to hunt it down.”

“Un, by its size, that should be true.”

With this size, it would have been difficult to sink it here.

“This would have been a difficult feat. You did great.”

“Hehehe”Please read at yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com

As I complimented her, Samia feel delighted.

First, me and Samia pull the deer to the place where Rike is. From there, with Rike joining us, we pulled it together so we were able to pull it up to the shore very quickly.

After that, just like before, we drag the deer to the log carrier and fix the deer into it, after filling the water vat with water, we also fix it into the log carrier. Now that we are ready to move, the three of us drag the log carrier.

It took us about 30 minutes to get back to the house.

Well, it’s dismantling time from here. It is pretty big so it is more difficult to lift than the previous time. The process of stripping the skin was not that different from before, but Rike was surprised again by the sharpness of the “serious model” knife.

Since me and Samia use it on a daily basis, I didn’t cut any unnecessary parts but if I’m not used to it, I may even cut my skin. When taking out the internal organs, it’s also likely to damage the organs that shouldn’t be messed (like bladder, gallbladder or large intestines).

I promised to show the “luxury model” to Rike today, but the “serious model” knife may also be good for Rike.Please read at yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com

Although the deer was large, it was quickly turned into meat. The amount of meat is plenty in proportion to its physique.

“With all this, even if all the three of us are big eaters, we have two weeks to spare. Samia, you’re a great help.”

When I said so, Samia replies,

“I-Is that so? Then I’ll catch one again next time!”

She happily said so.
