20 Rabbi (1/2)

Everyone burst out laughing as they saw Dilya's bright red cheeks.

”I've never seen you so embarrassed before,” Kerym said.

Dilya turned her head and looked away from embarrassment. ”Shut up!”

Kerym chuckled. ”Well, that's fine. You can be with Kigai and I'll be with Heath.”

”That sounds good,” Karl said. He rubbed his stomach as it growled from hunger. ”Hey, uhh... Did you happen to bring any food?”

Kerym shook his head. ”No, I didn't, but this place is filled with rabbits, we should be able to catch some to eat.”

”Hmm, alright. I'll go look for some.” Karl stood up and walked around the camp, trying to find some rabbits.

”Here, let me help you. I'm also pretty hungry,” Kerym said, standing up and catching up with Karl.

Karl nodded and looked in the dark to find some rabbits. He was using his night vision ability and it was working pretty well. Although it could have been better, it was good nonetheless.

Kerym walked beside Karl, keeping an eye out for any rabbits. Unlike Karl, he didn't have anything to help him see in the dark, but his hearing was pretty good. His ears twitched as he heard the scuttling of an animal. He turned to the direction of the sound. ”Right there.”

Karl looked to where Kerym was looking and saw a rabbit. ”Alright.” Using the darkness, Karl wrapped the rabbit with his tentacles. ”Got it!”

”Nice, that power of yours is really helpful.”

The two walked up to the rabbit and killed it, making sure it didn't suffer. Kerym grabbed it, placing it in his bag.

”Let's catch a few more,” Karl said.

Kerym nodded and they went back to looking for more rabbits. The next few rabbits weren't as easy to find as the first ones. It was dark and they were in their burrows, hiding from predators, but there were some on the surface.

They made their way back to the camp when they caught their fourth rabbit.

Kerym arrived at the camp and placed his bag with rabbits down. ”Where's Dilya?” he asked Heath.

”In the tent,” Heath answered, pointing to the tent.

”Alright.” Kerym turned to Karl. ”I'll make a fire and cook the rabbits, why don't you get Dilya?”

Karl nodded. ”Ok.” He went into the tent to get Dilya.

Kerym watched Karl head into the tent. He grabbed some firewood nearby and piled them up. Channeling his mana, he drew a fire symbol and set the firewood on fire. Usually, he doesn't use magic, but he had to agree, it was very convenient and helpful. Taking out the dead rabbits, he stuck them on some sticks, placing them over the fire.

As Karl entered the tent, he saw Dilya sitting, practicing her power. ”Wow, you don't take a break.”

Dilya turned her head and looked up at Karl. ”Uh, yeah. I'm probably the weakest one here, so I want to help out as much as possible.”

”Yeah, I am hungry, but Kerym is cooking the food? He's not the worst cook, but you should've called me. I'm a better cook.”

”Next time.”

The two left the tent and sat around the fire.
