About Ti to Return
I wonder if it’s fine to leave the goblins here… this isn’t a field though.
Would throwing them into the forest solve it?
Ah, while I was thinking about that at and Ichika ca back with the rabbits (beheaded) from the forest. That was fast.
“Goshujin-sama, I hunted the at.”
I wonder if hunting stimulated her dog-eared girl instincts? at was faintly smiling. Guess she’s satisfied.
For now, the three of us went to hanging the rabbits upside down, putting them into the bag when blood stopped coming out.
“What about the goblins’ magic stones? Well, they’re not much but it’s nice to get so extra money as F-rank.”
“Goblins have magic stones?”
According to Ichika, it seems they’re buried in their brains. It takes about a minute per to find the magic stone.
Its head was sliced open with the sword and its brain scrambled around… Uoeh… What ca out was a scrap magic stone even smaller than the one I could get with 10 DP. I guess with five of these it might be worth around the 10 DP magic stone…?
“It’s a demon so it has a magic stone. It’s pretty small, but demons have magic stones sowhere in their bodies. If the rabbits also had magic stones, they’d be demon rabbits soon… Hmm, I guess this’d sell for a copper… ah, I think it’d disappear after a night of being used in that light magic tool at last night’s inn.”
If five goblins really did beco thirty copper, it wasn’t worth the ti in getting its scrap magic stone for a single copper. It’s obviously more profitable to use that ti to hunt another goblin.
… I wonder if it’s fine to throw them away now? This takes too long.
I got the scrap magic stone from Ichika for now. It might be useful for a golem.
Returning to the town with rabbit at in hand, we imdiately headed to the grilled at skewers stall.
“Oh, you brought rabbit at?”
“Yeah, here. Please assess it.”
He decided to purchase the headless rabbits I took out from the back.
Of course, they were all for the highest amount of twelve copper coins. With six of them, that made seventy-two copper. I didn’t get the money from him since I would receive it from the guild. Adding it to the reward from the goblins, it made around one silver and two coppers. A silver coin was a refreshing reward.
“Ku—, you did a good job… Eh, by so chance, is that Nee-chan your new comrade?”
“That’s right! The na’s Ichika. Good to et ya! My~, that slls gooood. I wanna eat that at skewer, Goshujin-sama~, buy it~?”
“Hahaha! So An-chan? I’ll throw in a small extra if you buy it, so?”
“… Well then, I’ll take three.”
“Thanks for the purchase!”
Handing him fifteen copper coins, I received four at skewers. One as a freebie for buying three seed like a lot.
I handed two to Ichika and one to at.
“Though An-chan, she’s a beauty. Even the small Jou-chan has an amazing future, you’re pretty attracted to looks huh.”
“She was a pretty good bargain. She’s noisy when it cos to food though.”
“Haha, then go ahead and be a regular custor to my shop. Ah, right. I bought the at from An-chan, but it’s even more delicious and popular than usual. If possible, I’d appreciate it if you sold it on a regular basis.”
“I can’t just hunt rabbits… my rank went up.”
“Ooh, congratulations on that. It’s fine if it isn’t rabbits then. Boars or sothing like that, I’d buy whatever so long as it’s delicious. I was originally a butcher, with this stall as a side job. I can handle anything.”
“Co to think of it, I hunted goblins.”
“Hahaha! Goblins are horrible no matter if you roast them or boil them ya know?”
Is that so~.
“Well, could you tell the secret to making the rabbit at so delicious? I’d offer up to twenty silver.”
“Heeh… that’s pretty generous. What if he teaches ya? Will there be delicious at stuffs here whenever?”
Ichika spoke with so strenuous effort, at least it was probably that.
In truth, even I appreciate good at… but it’d quickly spread around if I told him.
Alright, let’s not tell him.
“It’s still a secret for now.”
“Well, can’t be helped. Please let know when you feel like it.”
Since Ichika looked a bit disappointed, today’s rabbit at… I had him promise to set so aside for us for a week. I paid twenty-five copper coins in advance… I’ll try to not forget about coming to eat here. Ichika is scary.
After that, we headed to the guild and received the one silver and two copper coins reward.
It was finally ti to head back to the mountain. Just in case, I told them that I’d co back so ti next week.
We went to the west gate to return to our base.
“Hey, is that enough stuff to go to the mountains? Ah no, I know about [Storage], but…”
“Right, this doesn’t seem like enough previsions to people huh.”
Co to think of it, it was a bit dangerous heading to the west gate last ti.
Alright. I’ll hand Ichika a silver coin from today’s reward.=
“Is this enough for equipnt?”
“For three people… I thought we were getting three day’s worth of food? This is enough for a week’s.”
“We can get supplies at our base, so that’s fine. I’ll go and nap in the central park. Go and buy stuff with at.”
“Got it. Then, I’ll buy stuff. Can I buy sweets with the change?”
“… Just let know roughly how much you spend.”
“Leave it to ~ ?”
I’m terribly uneasy about this, but I’ll trust the forr C-rank adventurer.

“This at sandwich is gooood. Mmmm, the vegetables and oil from the at intertwine and beco an amaaaazing flavor, artisan-level technique! A good texture and feeling. Moreover, this flavor… it’s cheese! There’s cheese in it! I’m so happy. Have a good appetite… eat up!”
There was a food terror as soon as I woke up.
“Why are you making that face Goshujin-sama? I bought your part too, food~ food~”
When I looked, at was also holding a sandwich in her hand. Ichika was holding two. Shrewd.
I looked over the equipnt Ichika while she ate the sandwiches.
Flint, tent, food, canteens, pelts, food, knife, food, canteens, food… oi, why so much food!?
“It’s normal, if we lose it we can’t eat, so I got a lot.”
Well, changes of clothes aren’t needed with [Cleanup], and we can use life magic to heat water or warm ourselves with [Generate Heat]. We’d need the magic skill [Ignition] or a flint to make a fire though.
For the most part, with life magic the most important thing to live in the mountains is edible food.
A knife was convenient for processing and cooking food, and furs were for laying on the ground to sleep.
But these pelts are white and fluffy… hey, aren’t these rabbit furs? Why do I have a bad feeling about this?
“I put various stuff in the bag. Even though Goshujin-sama has [Storage]…”
“So, how much was it?”
“The sandwiches! Bargains, at six coppers each!”
“Not those.”
“Ah, that. We used it all. Aaah, it’s good we were just barely able to buy the sandwiches~”
Her smile looked as though she were asking to be praised for spending it all.
Nah, in truth I thought this would happen when I handed her the silver coin. Enough food and equipnt for three people for three nights with 10,000 yen would have been pretty hard. It was probably really hard.
“Seriously, at-senpai saved y’know? She drove down prices hard. Aah, we were lucky the clerk was a guy ?. He kept looking at my chest, because of that we saved fifteen copper.”
Wouldn’t that interfere with his business?
“Well, you really did well. Thanks. It would have been better for to hand you a bit more funds huh?”
“What ya gave was fine though? Ah, but you can pay in food?”
… You can eat stuff like hamburgers and lon bread when we get back to the [Ordinary Cave].
And so, now with proper equipnt, we headed towards Tsuia Mountain.
Co to think of it, I’m a dungeon master but it doesn’t feel like it at all. Sothing like being an adventurer after heading down to a human village is definitely not a dungeon master’s business.
Has the life of staying indoors like the bandits and sleeping that I’ve longed for finally arrived?
