CH 45

It’s been hour since I accompanied these guys just going about opening paths with good foot hold. Apparently, they have no information on the whereabouts of the snake that they’re looking for and it’s hard to find making the search not to go favorably.

(I honestly want to have the magic potions even if I have to kill them and take it away from them)

However, if that happens, Oppai-san who always shows interesting reactions would die. I don’t want to kill beautiful woman and children because it makes feels sorry for them. That’s why I want to deal with the snake, but it’s stupid to search without any clues,

[It looks like it would take some time]

She said as I followed them. I keep my distance from them so that they don’t get wary of me too much. After all we once tried to kill each other in the battlefield twice.

Well, I thought that we had to continue wandering around but it seems that they have proper destination and we successfully arrived to a vacant campsite that was used by people. It seems like this place is where mercenary always camps.

They then made it into a campsite. The sun will set in about two hours that’s they are now preparing to camp. I also decided to camp here at well. I enter the premise. It was quite noisy but I ignore it, I took down my backpack and looked for the person I was looking for- ah there she is! I gently lift her up with both hands.

[I’m busy here!]

Perhaps that what she meant.

I moved her towards my luggage and sit her on top of it.

[You want me to keep an eye on it?]

I didn’t answer and instead move towards the forest to look for my prey.

I hear voices behind me but I ignore them.

You can look at my luggage with keen interest so I’ll leave it to you Oppai-san.

In the span of 30 minutes, I am able to hunt down 2 wild boars that I left barely alive,

Now then, let’s play a little prank.

I returned to the camp with boars in my hands, there’s tents and something of unknown use standing up, there’s also Oppai-san who looks quite bored sitting on my luggage.

After she saw me, she stood up and prepare herself.

I placed the wild boar outside of the camp, retrieve my shovel, hatchet and rope from my backpack then cut of both its head.

Then I hanged them off a tree to drain their blood and let flow to a hole I dig earlier.

For the meantime I I’ll prepare everything for a grilling.

First, I made a stove out of stones and place an iron plate on top of it. And use some dead tree branches as firewood for it. Then I arrange some iron skewers and places salt and pepper besides them. I then started a flame by using a magic tool and light the firewood.

I butchered the boars and the parts I don’t need were put in the hole. The fats are taken out first and was put in the griddle and then removed the it after it renders then start cooking the thinly sliced meat.

I sprinkled a good amount of salt and pepper and then returns to dismantling the other boar while waiting for it to cook.

After the second dismantling, I turned over the meat, cleaned up the messed from the dismantling and then starts eating the meat.

The mercenaries who had been staring at the meat skewers we’re all astonished and spoke

[Eh~…]

All they have are dried meat, hard bread and thin broth making it obvious that my meal is levels better than them.

(Their meals like dried meat and hard bread are designed for long storage)

Hehe. The prank works and now they stopped eating and is looking at me. Oppai-san who was nearby was completely dumbstruck. I guess they can’t believe a monster can do that. So put a bite-sized meat on her mouth.

[This is ridiculous!]

I guess she’s saying something along that line.

After she battled over the heat on her mouth, she swallowed it and she approach me once again.

[Why! Monster! Use Iron! Grill! Meat!]

Looks like she separated the words to make it easy for me to understand.

[And! Salt and Pepper! Season meat!]

I want you to understand something lady, the power of language barrier, I offered the meat with the meat with such intentions but she rejected it. Oh well if you don’t want it, the meat has no sin.

I wonder if it’s too tough for her? Well, it’s not a challenge to my strong jaws so maybe it’s hard for them?

In order to calm her from the collapse of common sense I offered her the meat 3 times but she only accepted only once. Halfway though she started hugging her knees and became silent, so, I decided to leave her alone.

I want to play a prank on her by pulling off her robe to take a peek at her boobs, but all eyes are focused on us.

I want to at least use the excuse of [We’’ I can’t help it, you’re a monster] just like how elementary school boys are excused for doing such pranks.

Oh well, I guess I should finish up and started cleaning, I washed the griddle with the scrubbing brush and lightly rinsing it with water and then left to dry naturally. The skewers are returned to their proper places after the wash. Then the other boar was then stored in the cooler box and it’s done.

Next, I filled a pot with water and place it on the stove then get a towel and dunk it in the pot. I then wring it and use it to wipe my body, where the mercenary for the umpteenth time exclaimed [Eh?].

[Why are you wiping your body?]

Oppai-san looked at me and muttered.

[This isn’t right…]

I felt sorry for her. She was left in a state that all she could say is [This isn’t right…] or [This is ridiculous…]. So, I took out another cloth and tried wiping her where she brushed it away, I was left with no choice but to pout the impromptu towel around her neck

[Hiii!]

She stared at me with startled voice.

Then I continued wiping my body, my chest, armpit and other places where I might be sweating. Then I moved away from her so that she can calm down, it would be bad for her mental health if I push her more and also, I already gained a lot.

The night deepens and half of the mercenaries are now asleep while the others are now standing guard. They now look at me not as a <Ferocious monster> but a <Mysterious Monster>.

I did it!

Still, it seems that they all don’t want to get close to me, so they just look at me from far away as if I’m an outcast.

(Are you sure you want to do that? I’m not going to tell you that something big is coming)

I was so happy about the result of the prank that I went a bit crazy.
