“I, I seriously need to have a go with this”

“Sure, you can shoot at the next ently, like aa toy he'd been begging for for a long tiht, so I think it's safe to conclude that exploring this factory led to a very good haul, but we still had a lot round to cover It was too early to return to the Fairy Square today so with my new toy, we continued our survey of the ruined town

“Um, Kotarou-kun Are those monsters too?”

Currently, we kept ourselves hidden from what appeared to be a herd of soathered at reseroith trees and bushes and there was a small pond

These creatures that looked like sheep were rass in that park, so clearly they were herbivorous

Their white, fluffy bodies reminded me of those accursed cloud creatures, but actually, this fluffiness was due to genuine body hair And though white and fluffy gave the i-ish necks extending out,them more like alpacas really

“No, those are normal animals Called Jaja apparently”

These Jajas were part of the info Yaotten on his notebook updates

The text updates on our notebooks were personalized and quite literally all over the place And from what I've seen, Yamajun's was the most comprehensive

With that in ue practice set, but also a separate notebook with all the info on monsters and such that he knew of These notebooks weren't just ieon

“Are they edible?”

“Yep, they're herbivores and work pretty well as food It's actually recommended that we hunt some if we run across them”

Mei-chan had stars in her eyes and looked like she was itching to rush them with her halberd

“But Jajas are a lot like antelope, they're sensitive to their surroundings and run pretty fast Let's let Rem snipe them from here”

Coincidentally, ere doind from the Jajas, and they hadn't noticed us I believed that it would be prudent to hunt using a bow in this case Well, I guess Mei-chan could technically throw a spear to the sa a two in one kill

“Alright, go for it, Rem”

“GUGAGA… GAGA?”

Re on her back and was about to drahen all of a sudden, all the Jajas that'd been obliviouslyaway raised up their heads

Did they notice?

The Jajas went, ‘Maaa, ot away”

“Wonder how they noticed?”

Ignoring Mei-chan, who looked incredibly sorry at theof the cause If they'd heard us, they'd have already fled by the tiht of theed either, so it's hard to iine they sensed us by scent

That leaves stuff like mana flow, or bloodlust… but before I could think more, the answer revealed itself

“BRFFF, BRRFFFF!!”

Turning a corner, arrived a large horned le distinctive horn and brown coat, it was unle zone

I noas called a Roylopse from Yamajun's co, a fricking Salamander swooped in and ate it before it had the chance to even blink, but I don't think I'll have the same kind of luck here

This Roylopse walked with a co in the area could cause it any haran chewing away at the grass That grass sure is popular

So those Jajas had obviously run away because of this h for that one”

“Ah, I'll handle it,”

Mei-chan, with her ever-present love for erous, she probably thought it a better turnout since this bigger ht guess, a brute strength type But Mei-chan, who treated even Goliaths as sainst it

“… Sure Roylopse e dinner to that It's aaway”

“Leave it to ed at the grazing beast

“BRR, BRGOOHH!!”

The Roylopse, seeing the hued It could be because its meal was interrupted, but when I met one of its kind, it had very similar behavior, so maybe it just treats humans as enenates them as monsters

“Let's do this”

Mei-chan put strength into her ar stance She was planning to end this in one deadly strike

Mei-chan and the Roylopse stared at each other for a moment

Then, the ed head first It was like a truck co at you at full speed Even my current Rem wouldn't be able to take that head on

However, Mei-chan was, a Berserker

“H down her halberd with a fierce war-cry,a direct and critical hit on the Roylopse's fast approaching skull

A loud, dull, breaking sound later, the Roylopse was on the ground, defeated, yet still sliding fro er

It died froether with the craniu badass…”

This incoht that could topplea Battle Art The Mei-chan I was currently witnessing had to be stronger than what uys, Soumkun and Tendou-kun, lieon, she was reatest hope

We couldn't just take the Roylopse along as we explored, so after draining the blood at the nearby pond, we cut it up into sizable chunks and carried it back to the Fairy Square

“Let's keep most of this on ice”

“Sure, we'll have lots of time to enjoy it!”

Yup, her inner hardcore chef was really stoked at the massive amount of meat we'd amassed Truly, withiain in a lot less time

So without further ado, I went on to prepare the Curse Considering the quantity of e type Cauldron with the size of a bathtub

“Um, Kotarou-kun, is there any way I can use this pot?”

“Eh? H the Witch's Cauldron to heat or cool or auto mix food I am the caster after all Other's basically couldn't control it Actually, it'd be seriously proble of the company I kept for the past while My ability to use this Cauldron was an important role for me only, as well as a boost to my value as a party member

But since I was now only with Mei-chan, I'd be lying if I said that leaving the cooking to her was anything but convenient Honestly, I'd beco

“Let's try it out”

“Awesouess

“He the type”

Once I casted a Cauldron and set up its effect, Mei-chan was able to use it It was actually very similar to how that treasure box opened She just had to let some of her mana flow in and it worked

But it turned out ie the Cauldron's effect For exae type, Mei-chan was able to turn it on and off, but not change it to a stove type

Which meant I just had to make a few different ones for her It'd take solad to put in the effort

“Thanks Kotarou-kun I can make lots of stuff now, just you wait!”

“Great, then I'll leave chef duty to you”

And so, Mei-chan gleefully went on to do her thing, so I took that tio anda lot of Witch's Cauldrons today This one will be for a bath, and since Mei-chan will be using it, I should probably er than usual

As I displaced all thehassle bringing back the whole Roylopse Basically, Mei-chan did it We walked straight back to the Square this ti ifall that load Seriously, hoould it be to die because we got greedy and tried to carry too much food

“We need a porter”

As of noas able to le zone, I'd made Rem, Raptor, 2, 3 and 4, so 5 in total If ht be able to make a sixth

Of course, there was the fact that if I wanted to have a stronger Rem, I'd need more e even if I used high quality parts every ti mana every time

Like, I could make 5 Rems, each with all of my mana But would all those Rems be able to perforle one? No, I didn't think so

Other than the mana needed to create a Mud Doll, there was also mana needed to use, or rather, have control over theht now, I didn't really feel it, but this supply of mana would increase in proportion to the number of Rems I had The power of my Vile Mud Doll Skill would determine how much obedience I would have over all those Reh, there could also be a hidden paranates my level of control
