CH.13: RABBIT MEAT

When we got out the dungeon, the government officer came to me.

“Thank you for the dungeon guide”

“No, no, don’t mind it at all”

“Then, we will excuse ourselves”

“Ah, yes, thank you for your good work”

The government officer bows and walk away.
The people of the SDF also bow and follow him.
I wait until the people of the government office completely leave.
Then, when they completely disappear I involuntarily sigh.
Though I was no consciousness, it seems I was considerably fatigued.
I just understood that.
Well, whatever.
It’s impossible for me to not be nervous surrounded by people of the SDF.
If these people were determined, I would be killed in a blink.
I will be killed without noticing or understanding anything.
There is such difference in ability.
If I try to fill the difference in ability, I have to defeat monsters at a pace more than ever, right?
No, in the first place is it possible to fill it?
They should be able to easily obtain the powers I gain when I defeat a monster.
To fill the difference in power I have to gain more power than these people.
If the power they get from a monster defeated is 100, the difference will not be filled unless I obtain 101 or more power.
But, now I wonder if it has reached 100 or even 10. Maybe it is not even 1.
Thinking so, I felt incredibly depressed.
Pochi stared at me feeling something from my state.
I look at Pochi and smiled wryly.
And stroke the head of Pochi.
I stroke Pochi for a while, and I decide to go home with a soothing heart.
At this time, I thought from the bottom of my heart that it was good that Pochi was here.
If not, I didn’t know how I could handle this depressed feeling.

When I got back home I first began to dismantle the rabbit.
Its build is slightly different from a mouse, but the dismantling progresses smoothly because it doesn’t change much.
After have finished dismantling the rabbits, I enter the house with it.

“I’m back”

It was my mother who greeted me when I entered the house.

“Ara, welcome. How was it?”

“It was fine. Nothing is wrong”

“That. Then that’s good”

“Yes, here”

As I said so, what I gave it out is the meat of the previously dismantled rabbits.

“Ara, did you brought something today too? We still have plenty of meat left”

“This meat, isn’t rat meat but rabbit meat”

“Rabbit?”

“Today, we advance ahead into the dungeon. So, because a rabbit came out, I brought it back.”

“Hee~, Rabbit meat. I wonder if it is more delicious than the rat meat”

“Maybe”

“Got it. Well then, today I will cook with this meat”

“I leave it to you. If it’s delicious, I will switch to rabbit instead of rat from now on”

“Well. If this one is more delicious, do that”

“Oh, I see. I think you get it”

“I should give Pochi this meat too, right?”

“Yeah. It was possible to get rabbit meat because Pochi was there”

“Our Pochi is excellent! If it were another dog, it wouldn’t have done this, right~?”

“I guess”

Indeed, our Pochi is excellent. I don’t think there is a dog like Pochi even compared to other dogs.
It may be able to do the same thing as our Pochi if it is firmly trained, however, there is the question whether we can fight monsters together or not.
It’s possible it the master-servant relationship is solid, but a dog that just has a master-servant relationship can’t fight monsters.
First, you can’t fight monsters, if you keep the dog as just a pet.
A dog kept as a watchdog may be able to fight, but is the master-servant relationship properly established? There are few houses where you doubt it.
It might be possible if you keep it as a hound dog. However, will it fight against monsters?
I heard that it’s considerably hard raising up a hound dog.
If it’s a watchdog, it will be a training facility, however, if you choose this it will cost money, and there is nothing you can’t do.
But will it be raised as a hound dog at a training facility?
I have never heard that such facility exists.
Although it may exist, I heard that a hound dog which you got quickly with money was terrible seen in the bubble era.
Hunting seemed to be popular at that time, it began being a hobby and they bought hound dogs, then they throw away the hound dogs when they got tired of hunting.
When I found out that, I got mad!!
If you can’t take care of them properly until the end, shouldn’t keep them.
If you can keep it, at least take to someone reliable!!
If you are a dog lover, no, someone who keep animals properly, I guess those people would feel angry.
Now I got angry after only remember it.
A~h, stop, stop.
There is nothing I can do thinking about it.
Let’s switch it.

“Then I will wait in the living room until a meal is done”

“Well then, wait a little more”

“Okay”

I moved to the living room and killed time by watching TV until dinner was done.
Then, dinner seems to have been made, the meal is lined up.
The rabbit meat was used to make Ginger Grill, Stir Fry Vegetables, and others.
First I will try to eat the Ginger Grill.
What did I think about the food?
First, the meat juices are amazing.
The juices overflowing with chewing and the deliciousness of the meat overflows.
The deliciousness is so great than anything I ever tasted it before.
The rice improves a lot the deliciousness.
Unintentionally, I ate the rice just with that Ginger Grill.
I just ask another helping.
Next is the Stir Fry Vegetables.
I put the Stir Fry Vegetables in my mouth.
The meat juices linked with the vegetables, increase its flavor.
Though the meat alone is delicious, the chopsticks can’t stop if the vegetables are delicious.
The Stir Fry Vegetables which had been piled up was gone with a notice.
Of course, the rice is also finished.
Oh crap.
It’s more delicious than the rat.
From now on, I’ll be sure to hunt rabbits.
If there is something better than a rabbit, I will switch to that, but until then I’ll absolutely hunt rabbits!
It seems that the rabbit meat I got was eaten entirely and was well received by my family.
Even though the amount should have been several kilos.
That means that it was delicious.
Umm, I wonder which is more delicious, this or the premium beef?
I have never eaten it so I can’t compare it.
What I can tell is that it was more delicious that I can’t compare with the meat I had eaten.
Next time I go to the dungeon, let’s hunt rabbits first.
Then, switch to rats when the rucksack fills up.
Now that I know the rabbit’s taste, I don’t need any rat meat anymore.
Let’s give all the remaining rat meat to the chickens.
If there is also a surplus of rabbit meat, I’ll give it to the chickens.
I heard that giving delicious feed, the eggs will also be delicious.
If it works, I might be able to sell it as a high-class egg.
If that happens, it will make a profit.
Well, I’m not expecting that much.
First thing tomorrow, let’s go to buy an armor.
I didn’t mean to buy an armor because I was going to oppose only the first-floor rats for a while, but I’m concerned with my security if I don’t wear an armor against the second-floor rabbits.
But, an armor is expensive-.
It’s incomparably expensive than a weapon.
Well, how much money can I spend for my safety?
For the time being, just withdraw some at the ATM and let’s go buy some armor.
I had about 5 million, I should be able to withdraw 3 million.
I hope I can buy it if I can’t, I have no choice but to take a loan.
Well, I wouldn’t know until I go tomorrow to see how much it costs.
Let’s rest for today and prepare for tomorrow.
It’s early but I take a bath quickly, then just entered the bed and fell asleep.
