Kojiin Tamer

After handing our bags back to him at the hut, he gave me another boa souvenir and we returned to the orphanage.

After returning to the orphanage, I left the boa to Cruz and the others to take care of the boa, and began to prepare for tomorrow's gathering.

The first thing I do is prepare my sword. I sharpened Cruz's longsword, shortsword, and sword with increased sharpness.

The two boys will be coming with me tomorrow, and I will give them a short sword and a wooden sword.

I don't have any weapons to give them the wooden sword, but since there are either animals or hornrabbits, grey wolves, and fangbores in the place we are going to collect, we should be able to get by with the wooden sword.

Fang Boa will be hard to deal with with wooden swords, but you can get away with it by replacing your sword then, as it will be stuck in a pit.

I also made a shield as armor. At first I was going to use a wooden shield, but I had some leftover leather from the boa, so I reinforced the wooden shield.

The boa will be useful enough as a cheap sword won't stand up to the blade.

Although there are other wolf car, I also made a number of people's backpack because it's a shame to be empty-handed.

I also want something like a basket, but I will try next time because we do not have time.

The next day, we immediately went out to collect.

When we arrived at the gate...

Hey, lads, what's going on with you today with all these people?

Good morning. Um, today...

As usual, I told the usual soldiers that I think the orphanage kids are going to be adventurers, so we're going to go and collect them to get used to the dragon forest while we're at it.

I told him that we're going to go two at a time in turn from now on.

''Ahh, well, it's certainly hard for all the children in the orphanage to get jobs...''

'That's why I wanted to practice early. Besides, we have these guys!

I said as I patted Mew.

It's true that this kind of force is not common among the followers. But don't let your guard down and be careful!

''Yeah, thanks. Then I'll be heading out!

We arrived safely at the Dragon Forest without any monsters or other problems.

However, the two newcomers are still in the single digits of their level and this was their first time out, so they are nervous and tired.

The two who came today are older, and if they are like this, then it might be better to take more breaks from the next collection and proceed slowly. And there's a girl next time.

We were a little early, but we took a lunch break to eat some bread and fruit and start collecting.

The collection itself is easy because the collection point is just to go around, but the two of us were looking around and scurrying nervously because it is the first time to walk in the forest.

It's a good idea to have the two of them practice being vigilant, because they don't have my magic detection or Cruz's five senses to be vigilant.

While we were collecting at the first fruit tree, it seemed that Mew had found a hornrabbit.

We let the two of them watch the hunt.

This time, Cruz let us hunt the hornrabbit by himself.

He blocked the hornrabbit's horns with his wooden shield and decapitated it with his sword.

I don't think it's possible to do it the same way, so the next time I find one, I'll try using a pitfall like I've been doing.

While I was thinking about this, the queens were hunting their own prey.

They're as quick as ever. With their level rising, there might not be anyone to lose to around here. Well, you can't be too careful, though.

We finished collecting here and headed to the next point.

While I was collecting at the next point, we received a telepathic message from Pichan that he had found a Fang Boa.

We'll have to fight Fangboa before Hornrabbit, but it's good for both of us to level up, so let's give it a shot!
