The twins and I had done our best to defeat the Orcs. [1] However, when Fer saw the many cuts, bruises and various injuries on the dead Orcs, his comment was, âWould the meat be ruined?â
What the heck?
Do you really think Iâd worry about the condition of the meat while fighting for my life? [5]
Also, the three of us were covered in [8] Orc blood from the extended fighting. [1] I canât imagine the chaos at the gate when the twins and I arrive all bloodied upâŠ
Weâd probably be stopped at the gates or at least be questioned by the guards [8] and I would rather not attract attention like that.
What I would really like to do is to take a proper bath. Which I could since I have clothes, a bathtub and everything I needed in my [Item Box]. However, I donât have spare clothes for the twins.
Itâs not like I donât want to lend them my clothes but these guys are taller and more muscular than me so my clothes definitely wonât fit themâŠ
Oh, thatâs right!
âSui, can you split into several Slimes and clean the blood off our bodies?â
ââYe~es~ââ
Sui started to tremble. [2] Then, she grew larger and larger and suddenly split into ten smaller Suis. Nine of the Suis split into groups of three and then jumped onto us, [6] causing the twins to shriek in surprise.
[4] âItâs alright,â I said. âItâs part of Suiâs ability.â
The twins calmed down a little at this.
[6] For a short while, anyone passing by the subjugated Orc Settlement would have seen three people with Slimes squirming all over our bodies sucking away at the blood and dirt from our skin and clothes.
[5] Anyway, thanks to Sui, we were now at least⊠not as disgusting looking as before.
âLetâs go home,â [7] I said tiredly.
It had been a long day and I really donât feel like going for a hunt with Fer & Co. [2] The agreement at the end was to go hunting tomorrow.
We travelled back to the city the same way we came, me on Fer and the oddly quiet twins on Sui. [5]
I guess they were exhausted too.
Well, since theyâre tired, I dropped the twins off at the mansion before checking in at the Adventurerâs Guild.

As usual, the Adventurerâs Guild staff quickly went off to fetch the Guild Master the moment she spotted our party.
âYouâre back, that was quick!â
âYeah, somehowâŠâ
âAnd, er, you looked exhaustedâŠâ
âDonât ask.â
[6] I had been badly traumatized by the Orc Settlement Boot Camp and really donât want to talk about it.
âWell, did you manage to complete [5] the mission?â
âYeah, thatâs done at least. I have a good number of Orcs with me now, would you like to take it?â
[6] âSure, letâs go to the warehouse and you can show me what you got.â
[Please read this at kitchennovel dot com~]
âOu, Johan! We got some goods.â
âOoh, itâs you, brother. What do we have?â
âJust Orcs, but lots of them,â [7] I said.
[9] âThe Orc Settlement has been successfully subjugated,â said the Guild Master cheerfully.
âAh, the Eastern Forest mission. Right, show me what you got.â
I obliged and took out the Orcs from my [Item Box].
âHmm, they looked a bit more damaged than usualâŠâ
â⊠âŠâ Old Man Johan, surely thereâs no need to comment on that?
After that, it was all the usual thing.
Well, there was a slight difference. We only keep the meat from the Orc General and Orc Leader. I sold the rest of the regular Orcs from this mission as well as the ones from the Neihoff subjugation mission to the Guild wholesale.
The Guild Master was more than happy to buy the regular Orcs from me since there was always a steady demand for Orc meat.
âIâll have everything ready for you the day after tomorrow,â [7] said Willem-san.
âRight, Iâll stop by here then,â
Since I was still tired, we left the Adventurerâs Guild and quickly made our way home. Once we crossed the gates of my houseâŠ
âOi, Iâm hungry.â
ââMe too!ââ
ââSui is hungry too~ââ
It had taken me and the twins a long time to subjugate all those Orcs. Which meant we missed lunch.
I was pretty hungry too but I was more tired than hungryâŠ
It was just too tiring to cook something from scratch.
I should just serve up some prepared food. [6] Yeah, letâs just eat some rice bowl thing of some sort.
[6] Letâs seeâŠ
[6] I have Rock Bird yakitori, cooked rice and tons of pre-sliced cabbageâŠ
Assembling the Yakitori Bowl barely take up much thought. Though I made sure to put plenty of toppings for my familiars and loaded up on the sauce.
âRight, here you go.â
ââWoohoo! Looks good!ââ
ââYummy~!ââ
[6] My smaller familiars happily attacked their Yakitori Bowls in high spirits.
As for FerâŠ
âOi!â
âYes, what is it?â
âWhatâs all this extra grass on my bowl?â
ââŠisnât that the normal amount?â
âNo, there is a lot more of it!â
âHmm, if you donât like it, donât eat it.â
âGununununu,â
Fuhahaha.
Thatâs right, Ferâs bowl has twice the amount of shredded cabbage compared to Dora-chan and Suiâs portion.
Thatâs what you get for forcing me to fight under the excuse of âtrainingâ. This is revenge! Revenge!
Anyway, [10] I ignored the gununununu from Fer and ate my much smaller portion of Yakitori Bowl with plenty of cabbage.
[10] Look, Fer. Ratio wise, the amount of cabbage on our bowls are the same.
[10] So, eat your vegetables.
After a bit more gununununu, Fer eventually began to eat his Yakitori Bowl.
[10]
Thereâs plenty more where that came from.
Just wait.
All your âsecondsâ will have twice the amount of cabbage too.
Itâs for your own good. So, eat up and be healthy~~
KukukuâŠ
Gumihou: Itâs even cuter that Fer did not just knock the cabbages away but ate them instead, lol
Fer:Â Guuu
Gumihou: Fer can be so cute sometimes
Fer: GunununuâŠ
