I am now living with a dog! But I actually like cats! Well, actually theyre wolves not dogs. How nice, now life wont be as lonely.
That aside, it was around mid-October and the winter season was drawing near. It was cold. Gardening was getting difficult, so I had harvested all the vegetables and had stopped for the upcoming winter.
I was now preparing for winter and increasing my hunting frequency. Ti to secure at! But in the worst case I could manage with Creation Magic.
Hm? Is the way Im speaking reverting back to normal? Yep, it is. Ive grown tired of it.
I ran into a group of orcs several days ago, it was a group of ten orcs. Hm? Did I think I was about to die? No, it was just beyond what I had expected I guess?
I hadnt detected the Orc group with Detection. Instead, Norn, the mother wolf that I befriended had warned of them. And so I was able to snipe them from a distance.
As such, I was able to obtain a lot of pork or rather orc at. Orc at is edible and often used as a source of at. Plus, it tastes just like pork. But, orc at is expensive so I never had a chance of eating it at the orphanage.
Moving on, there was Norn. I thought she was a bit too smart, so after annihilating the orc group I had used Appraisal on her.

A Fenrir was a super rare monster from legends, so I was quite thankful.
They were about slightly larger than a normal wolf, and Norn was about 2m when we first t.
According to legends, Fenrirs could also speak, but it seems Norn would still be considered young so she didnt know how to talk yet. But she seems to understand what I am saying, so Im looking forward to the day where we can talk.
Furthermore, as a Fenrir grows older it will beco classified as a divine beast instead of a monster. However, it apparently can take up to hundreds or even thousands of years for that to happen. Which is a sha.
Norns skill levels were also higher than mine. However, she was still sohow injured, I think she mightve been ambushed or sothing. But still for sothing to be able to bypass a LV7 Alert skill and injure her, there was probably sothing really strong living in this forest.
It might not even be safe here too, so I should consider relocating sowhere else.
Hmm. Oh right, moving on to Bell.

Bell was still a child, but so of her status were still higher than mine. Like STR for example. Its not like Im jealous or anything! So lets just fluff her up a bit! Anyways, with these sort of feeling we finished up hunting and returned ho.
Today was a big success thanks to Norn.
It was sunny outside and the weather was perfect for hunting. Recently, there were many days where the weather was bad, which made it difficult to hunt. As for todays spoils, we managed to catch two large birds and two orcs. I was quite happy.
Norn and Bell also didnt eat as much as I had initially expected. The two were Fenrirs, and big, so I had thought they would eat a lot.
But, unexpectedly the two consu just an average amount of at. That being said, Norn and Bell basically procure their own food to eat.
What should I do for tonight? Should I fry the orc at? Or should I try broiling the bird at? Hm, but the soy sauce seems to be running low, and its about ti to restock the other spices.
There was still quite a lot I needed to do. Since a lot of fat could be taken from the orc at, I could go with a simple stir-fry thod. But since I didnt have any bread crumbs, deep-frying would be a no go.
I also found out sothing after testing it. It seems that orc fat doesnt sit well with . If I eat too much, it would go right to my stomach. Fried foods were devastating in more than one way.
As such, I was looking for plants that could be used for their oils, but I havent found anything like that yet. How annoying
As I was brooding over my own thoughts, Bell ca bounding over to my feet. It sure was peaceful.
On a side note, this world has soy sauce and miso. And the universal language was Japanese. What was with this reincarnation setting?
!
Norn?
As I walked leisurely thinking about the dinner nu, Norn suddenly reacted to sothing.
Then she started running, so I gave chase. A reaction soon appeared within my Detection range. 3 goblins. And 1 human.1
An attack? Should I save them? Yep, lets save them.
I decided to use a Status Boost Potion. It was a low grade one and would boost my AGI. The effect was a 2 status boost. I activated Storage and directly injected it into my veins. This thod would save the trouble of having to actually drink it and was more effective in smaller doses. But the effect ti would be shorter. Plus, it would cause more stress on the body. As such, my body would probably feel sore tomorrow, but for now I concentrated and picked up speed. I soon saw them.
A group of three goblins. It seems they havent noticed yet. The leftmost goblin raised its sword. There was a human figure in front of it, so I started preparing ammunition.
Norn, take the farthest one out, please!
Woof!
I aid at the head of the leftmost goblin. I launched forward a stone I made with earth magic. The stone t its target and the goblins head exploded. The goblin towards the front noticed, but Norn jumped over it and snapped down on the neck of the goblin behind it.
The goblin in front followed Norns movents and turned around. I accelerated further and jumped up, delivering a kick to the goblin that bared its back to . A dull, unpleasant feeling was transmitted to my feet.
I then made a graceful landing on the ground, which I felt was quite admirable considering my athleticism. When I looked up feeling satisfied with myself, the goblin was being crushed by Norn, she gave a squeeze and it convulsed, before going limp.
.Is it already over?
After confirming the death of the goblins, I pulled up the hood on my cloak.
Since it had beco cold recently, I made a leather cloak using the hide of the prey I had hunted. I had pulled up my hood just in case.
The effects of the potion had worn off. The duration lasted about 30 secondswas it possible to have settled the matter sooner? On a side note, what I did was boost myself, it wasnt doping. I had an image that what I did would be bad if I considered it doping. But these were just personal feelings.
Oh right, is the person being attacked alright? I glanced over to confirm.
.A woman, no a child? Well, no, Im also a child. But she was smaller than . It looks like she is around 7-8 years old? Ah, it looks like Bell has finally caught up.
Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?
A-Ahh..
Hm? Why is she looking behind ? What As I look back, I saw Norn nosily devouring the group of goblins. Ahh, this is a bit!?
I wish she wouldnt eat it right now I was montarily stunned, but then I heard sothing fall over in front of . When I looked back at the child, she had fainted.
.Its not like she was going to eat you.
