A little bit of time has passed between now and when I washed my body off in the water

I started a fire with an ignition rock and ended up waiting listlessly forWhen they were finally dry, I headed down the other path the redhead girl told me about, the corridor

「Wow! There are so many!」

I looked around the room at the end of the corridor It ymnasiums and it was filled with an incredible variety of ediblethat, I don't actually know if all of the-like monsters that I had never seen nor heard of, reptilian ht of as edible before

Theto leave the room Some of them looked my way, but none came to attack me There was another Safety Torch in the corridor, so it should be safe froeon wasn't exactly surprising, but the gazes of the h I knew they wouldn't attack

Even after I cautiously entered the rooro if you attack theet too close

「That one'll do」

There was a Grateful Boar standing right next to the entrance, so I quickly sliced it down and dragged its giant body back to the safety of the corridor

I orried that when I attacked a single ether, but that didn't end up happening

I still had plenty of uild, but I wanted to see if the redhead girl was telling the truth and it's always good to restock when you can

Nevertheless, I no for sure that the corridor leads to a dead end

None of the , but further off I spotted a Gigant Giant, a Marsh Hydra, a Paralyzing Moth-Crab and even a Darkblood Tarantula All sorts of eon were gathered together in that room

If I faced any one of thee and still ether would be suicidal

When I took down the Grateful Boar, I could feel their killing intent turn towardintent would be egotistical It was the feeling of an ant watching a human decide whether or not it would be worth the effort to kill it, and it ot more EXP and raised ap between inal plan had been to snark when I got back to the Safe Zone, to ask the redhead girl if she was going to say I got chased back byseen that room, I didn't thinkot more monster meat out of the visit, I started back down the way that took eon as a whole was just infuriating, but that rooeon

While I was still ru about how bad the situation was, I made it back to the ?」

She sent out a spell and it took all my effort and reflexes to deflect it aith reeta look at the deflected spell, I saw that it was earth-alignedball of sand It was at that point that it hit the ceiling and burst, raining sand down onto us

The redhead girl choked a bit on the sand before shouting at , idiot!?」

「But it was your fault, redhead!」

「Fine, just make me another meal」

「Already? What kind of sto with your metabolism?」

I did say that I would make double portions for her next meal, but I didn't think it would be just three hours after the first

Is her stouess that ugly pig could become a tasty meal It's even tastier than last time」

「Of course it's tastier than before, it's way more fresh」

I promised to make the same recipe with double portions, so I put away my scruples and cooked with the fresh etables, du pot, and skimmed off the fat I never had that much of a reason to learn how to cook before, so that was the limit of my abilities

My dad was thecakes and other desserts However, because I always used the recipes in azines, I had no idea how to eniuses who can cook hatever they have around Then again, the iood enough

「That's not it I've had Grateful Boar in restaurants before and it tasted terrible」

「Oh?」

「So why? Is it because you boiled it? Is it a special fire? The cut? A spice? I thought there was a hint of alcohol, but, etables?」

She's not too far off The secret was to boil the ently and smoothly with the bones still in, then to add in the the liquor of ricol fruit froirl refilled her bowl and drank another spoonful in one fell swoop Then she looked liely uncertain confidence
