7 07 "Lets raise Jack Or Lantern 1" (1/2)

”Nope, nope, nope, nope, why would you go into this forest to grow plants? It's not here!

Shut up, they're not plants, they're demons. You grow them.

I was complaining about it, but in front of me, Lily thrusts her sword at the wolf pack.

Hi! We're from the jukai. It's the jukai near the city. It's a so-called dungeon. First, the adventurer first went to kill goblins or gather herbs.

The story goes back a little bit now.

Let's start with a jack-o'-lantern.

What?

What is this kid talking about all of a sudden . A jack-o'-lantern? That's what you're talking about, isn't it, the pumpkin monster? What is this girl talking about?

”First of all, you grew a killer plant that is one of the most violent plant-type monsters ever. It knows how to attack anyone without looking. A jack-o'-lantern, on the other hand, is relatively safe. They rarely attack people unless we attack them.

But if I attacked you, you would attack me, right? I don't want to eat a live pumpkin! I don't want to eat it!

If you pick the jack-o-lanterns at the right time, you can get them before they have personality. I've picked a few myself, so I know exactly what I'm talking about.

Huh? Do people in this world normally do that kind of monster harvesting? It's a very dangerous world, isn't it?

I'm in the sea of trees in search of jack-o-lantern seeds. I want to go home.

”Keogh

I'm not sure why the enthusiastic Lily has found something and calls out my name, ignoring the voice in my mind.

Oh, Kyou is my Kyoji, right?

It's easier to call me Kyoji, so that's what she calls me.

Here it is...the carcass of a jack-o'-lantern.

There was something on it that was so-called rotten and lumpy as to melt into the ground.

Was this originally a pumpkin? Hmm, well, it's not invisible.

Another monster killed her, or an adventurer cut her down, or her life. Either way, it's just as well.

Then Lily pulls something out of a brown blob. Yeah, maybe those are the seeds, but they're kind of gross.

Hold on to it. Kyou.

”What? I'll have it?

Of course you do. You're the one who grows them, so you have to take care of the seeds.

Saying that, Lily throws the seeds. Well, the sludge from the main body is still attached to the pumpkin. There are quite a lot of seeds, because it's a pumpkin.

I wonder if this will grow after planting.

So here we go, guys! Time to sow!

Last time I forgot to acclimate the soil because I had to plant first, but this time I acclimate from the soil!

I found a helper named Lily, so I used the money she gave me to get down on my knees to buy a mulberry tree or something! Now it's all starting to feel like farm life!
