Chapter 98.6. The Second Year at the Academy - Consequences of a Chain (6)


I made a surprised expression and looked at the corpse. 

The spirit it summoned was lower-ranked, probably between C-rank upper and B-rank lower. 

It was a formidable opponent, but Rannell had only [Earth Bolt] as an attack means. 

If anything, [Stalagmite] was more dangerous. 

Anyway, I heard an interesting story.

Spirit magic is a kind of contract, isn't it? 

Those with the [Spirit Communion] skill should be able to make contracts.

"Sorry for interrupting the story." 

The ranch manager cut in hesitantly. 

"Would it be alright to transport this snake?"

"Yes. It's too big to dismantle here. It's modest, but I'll pay you for your trouble."

Though the shepherds were hesitant, they jumped at the mention of payment. 

They quickly tied ropes and began preparing for transportation.

Once brought to a corner of the grazing land, I asked a shepherd for well water and had Serade help with dismantling. 

As a result, a magic stone, round leather, two fangs, and an additional magic stone from an undigested Dreppen were found. 

I also obtained one magic stone from the Dreppen I had taken down and collected sixteen well-preserved wings.

The bones of Kudo

urga seemed unlikely to be valuable, but I took them back for now. 

I asked Ted and the others to dispose of the Dreppen's entrails in the forest.

What remained was a large amount of meat. 

It was labeled as harmless in [Appraisal], but the taste was unknown.

I cut it into bite-sized pieces with a knife, seared it with [Flint], and sprinkled it with salt. 

When I put it in my mouth, I was surprised by its tenderness. 

As I suspected during dismantling, it became even more distinctive when chewed. 

Perhaps it was to make it easier to move through the soil.

"It has a subtle taste. This would go well with any dish."

Upon hearing my impression, everyone furrowed their brows. 

The ranch manager and the shepherds had no choice, but it was surprising to see adventurers showing reluctance.

Then Ted and the others returned. 

Upon hearing the situation, the vanguard members clamored.

"Feed us!" 

This was the true nature of adventurers.

It wasn't about being gluttonous; it was about having an appetite.

When Kudurga's meat was put into their mouths, the four cheered. Intrigued, Yabushou cautiously tasted it and praised it.

The ranch manager and the shepherds, watching from a distance, also started to make noise. 

According to Vero and Elliot, there was no demand for Kudurga's meat since it was rare, and no one wanted to eat it. 

Nevertheless, I decided to treat the shepherds.

And so, in the evening on the grazing land, Verna and I grilled Kudurga's meat in a frying pan while Dina and others prepared and brought Kudurga dishes from the kitchen.

Adventurers and shepherds sat together, enjoying meat dishes and alcohol. 

The ranch manager sent shepherds to buy a small amount of alcohol.

Due to the Dreppen attack, it was confirmed that there was no Dekrama. That was a celebration before the completion of the request.

During the evening, the shepherds and I switched places.

I, Verna, and the free-handed Dina joined the feast.

Eventually, Ted and Gemma asked about the Kudorga battle, and I, feeling Yabushou's gaze, reluctantly shared the story, starting from the encounter with the Dreppen.

"Attack magic is troublesome—"

While looking at Ted and the others who were engrossed in eating, I was thinking about something else.

It started with monkeys and ended with a giant snake. 

And if you traced it back, it was the imbalance caused by the destruction of the goblin village.

Kudorga came here chasing prey that had moved a great distance. Dekrama, not only unfamiliar with the land but also aware of the approaching Kudurga, came out into the dangerous grassland.

The entire forest returning to normal will take some time.

Even so, in the not-too-distant future, Nudlok will dominate the treetops.

And the surface will be contested by Goblins and Orcs.

Even if Dekrama remains, it should become normal over time.

Suddenly, I reflected on the past half-month.

Being an adventurer is truly a harsh occupation. 

A request that only involves protecting turns out to be this difficult.

The intense battle with Kudurga ended, and applause erupted from the shepherds, who had somehow been listening. 

Everyone's faces were filled with relief and joy in the campfire light.

Raising my cup, I responded to the applause. 

In any case, we successfully defended the ranch.
