Chapter 6 â The Race Called Hand Riding Rabbit (II)
ăHawawa! Whatâs this!? Super delicious desu!ă
Carrot, beansprout, and wild boar meat.
Sonja shouted as she filled her mouth with sauced roasted meat.
ăIâve never eaten anything like this desu yoâȘă
ăAgree desu yo, I agree desu yo!ă
ăAre you a god?ă
ăMeat, meat, carrotâȘ meat, carrotâȘă
ăSeriously!ă
ăBest thing ever nano desu yo!ă
ăWork of god nano desu yo!!ă
It seems to be popular with the hand-riding rabbits.
Maa, itâs good that everyone likes it.
I also tried eating the roasted wild boar meat that was sauced with yakiniku sauce.
-uh, ugh,uuggghhhhhh!
The moment I bite it, the sweet meat juice full of umami overflowed that almost made my head melt away.
It is thick but soft, the more you chew, the tastier it becomes, and the smell of the yakiniku sauce that enters my nasal cavity is so fragrant!
While I feel like Iâm rising to heaven, I tried putting beansprouts on my mouth.
The crispy texture is pleasant as it sucks the fat of the wild boar on my mouth.
And the carrot adds an exquisite sweetness as a wholeâŠ.this is really delicious.
I ate it in an instant and nodded a little like what Sonja did earlier.
ăItâs very very delicious desu. I unintentionally ate three times desuâȘă
ăAh, I never thought it would be this delicious as well.ă
ăFufufu? Do you know?ă
ăHnn?ă
ăWhen I eat a lot of meat desuă
ăâŠ.Hnn?ă
ăRabbits will get aroused desu yoâȘă
Hey, weâre already doing it every night. Are you telling me youâre not even aroused back then?
Sonja sits next to me and holds my hand tightlyâ
âthat goes without saying that doing it a number of times in a day is hardâin various ways.
-Fox eared stripper, Succubus, and Adventurerâs guild
The next morning.
To be honest, Iâm struggling.
Iâm almost reaching my limit by being Sonjaâs partner every day.
Although I havenât even harvested garlic yet, I planted leeks and yam.
As for the reason, leek gives lots of nutrients like garlic.
As for yam, I often heard that it is good for âstaminaâ.
ăSkill: Seed Creationă
Do leeks have seeds? Do potatoes have seeds?
That question came to my mind but it was quickly answered.
I mean, seeds come out.
This skill is really useful.
It will grow fast and furiousâŠ.
When I was working diligently on the fieldâ-
ăWho are you?ă
ăAh? Me? Iâm Arisa, a foxkin. An adventurer.ă
Fox earsâŠa beastkin?
Maa, sheâs like Sonja. Sheâs no different from a human except from her ears and tail.
As for her age, she looks like sheâs in her early twenties?
Her height is around 155. Sheâs also flat chested but she looks healthy.
ăW-what do you want from me?ă
ăNothing, Iâm just surprised? I never thought there would be a human cultivating a field in the forest of no returnâŠ. the border of the demon and human domainâŠ..ă
It looks like thereâs also the usual ingredient of a fantasy world, demon domain.
ăBut niichan, are you not attacked by monsters? Looking at youâŠ.you neither have a smelly bag nor a spirit barrierâŠ.ă
No, Iâve met a lot of monsters.
However, I only need to âchudonâ them with my hoe and itâs over.
ăSmelly bag? Spirit barrier?ă
Then, Arisa took out a small bag and a piece of paper with a magic circle drawn from her bosom.
ăLike its name, a smelly bag gives out a smell that monsters hate. The spirit barrier creates a spirit field that monsters hate.ă
So, they are like mosquito coils?
Well, they are different but similar in the sense of keeping disgusting things away.
I guess it is similar to the amulet the first clergy gave us.
ăI also have other things that make me able to avoid monsters like my garments butâŠ.how can you live here?ă
ăWell, I have my own measures.ă
Even I told her I just âchudonâ those monsters, she will not believe me.
ăRightâŠ.this place is supposed to be a lair of high-level monsters after allâŠ.ă
Arisa tilted her neck and stared at me seriously.
ăBut, why are you here?ă
ăAh, I amâŠ.a stripper.ă
ăStripper?ă
ăThis place is like a dungeon but you know that thereâs a more dangerous dungeon nearby, right?ă
I donât know anything about it at all but I think it is better if I go with the flow.
ăYeahă
ăThat means there are corpses of high-level adventurers here. Iâm supposed to strip them up of their equipment and deliver it to the guild. But as expected, itâs too dangerous to go into that dangerous dungeon aloneâŠI canât get in.ă
ăI see. So thatâs what you mean by stripper.ă
ăYeah. Aside from the things I can get from the corpse, the equipment will be bought by the family as a legacy of the dead and I will be paid by the guild by surrendering their guild plates.ă
If there is danger, there must be a feeâŠI donât know the market price but I think itâs a fairly conscientious business.
ăMaa, it is hard to talk while standingâŠ.would you like to have a cup of tea at my hut?ă
ăAh, I donât really mind but, thank you.ă
Arisa said âMy throat is dryâ with a smile when we arrived at the hut.
ăHeh, this is a great herb tea.ă
What she said is true. It was a herb taught by Sonja and youâll only need to boil it.
It even has a calming effect or something similar to warm green tea.
From the information I got from her, it seems like thereâs a city about 40 km southeast from here.
She said that the political situation there is unstable and peace and order is also badâŠ.until I gather more information about that place, I will put going there on hold.
My life here with Sonja isnât bad after all.
Iâm just a little tired.
ăBy the way, niichan, how do you really deal with monstersâŠ..ă
And one hand riding rabbit came into the hut.
ăAre you drinking herb tea?ă
While jumping around, she runs up my knee and then to the table.
ăOi oi, donât just drink my tea without permission.ă
ăYou stuff is mine nano desuâȘă
I can only smile wrylyâŠ.. When I look at ArisaâŠ.
She stands up from the chair shivering while taking two to three steps back.
She then asked me with a voice full of fear.
ăH-hoâŠâŠhowâŠâŠâŠâŠ.did you tameâŠâŠâŠone?ă
ăBy feeding? If you give them carrots theyâll give you something in return.ă
ăYouâŠ..madeâŠâŠ.a hand riding rabbitâŠâŠ.like thatâŠ.with carrots?ă
ăItâs the first time Iâve eaten this kind of carrotâŠis what she said.ă
While her mouth is still wide open, Arisa looks at the hand-riding rabbit again. Sheâs looking at her as if sheâs not real.
ăBy chance, do you haveâŠ..devil boarâŠ.no, wild boarâs skin and tusk?ă
After letting the hand-riding rabbits live here, theyâve already hunted two wild boars.
ăThe skin looks like it can be used for clothing or something so Iâve kept them though Iâve thought of throwing away the tusk and bones.ă
Arisa suddenly became frightening.
ăWhat! You must absolutely not throw them!ă
ăWh? What do you mean?ă
ăWhere is it! Where did you put them!ă
ăAre you asking about the skin?ă
Arisa nodded many times so I guided her to the warehouse.
ăBingo!ă
Arisa nodded with satisfaction and asked for a handshake.
ăHandshake?ă
ăGive them to me! Skin, fangs, bones, everything! If you sun-dried the liver, Iâll buy it too!ă
ăâŠ..I donât really mind as long as itâs not the meat.ă
ăNegotiation concluded!ă
Arisa grabs my right hand with both of her hands and shakes it.
After shaking my hands, she handed me a bag filled with gold coins.
Given its weight, it should be around 50 pieces.
Then, she sticks up four fingers of her right hand.
ăFour days! Give me four days! Thatâs only an advance paymentâŠ.give me the skin, fangs, and bones first! After selling them to the city, Iâll deduct my fee and bring back the payment with a dash!ă
I donât really understand but it seems like this boar can be sold at a high price.
While we were talking, Sonja barged into the warehouse while saying âitâs almost time for dinnerâ.
