An A-Ranked Adventurer’s ‘Slow-living’ - 96 I should look at it from now on

Having harvested nuts, fruits and many mushrooms that can only be harvested in autumn, we cut off today’s hunt and went down the mountain.

Today, the basket on the back is heavy thanks to the fact that three people worked together to collect.

Aside from preservation, it may be a bit more to eat with me and the flora.

Do you not go home as it is today, but divide into Fiona and Elgis before returning?

The house is also in the neighborhood, will it be divided into toacs?

As expected, Aisha and Kourne are a little farther from the house. As expected, there is not enough amount to divide the Aisha family, and this time it is bad but I will have you endure it.

“Mr. Aldo, don’t you go home today?”

Thinking about that, Kyle walking next to her asked a strange face.

Because I usually cut through the meadow and went back without going through the road leading to the village square.

“I’m going to go to Ergis’s house today, so I’ll come back to the village.”

“ah I see”

When she answered while swinging her basket, she nodded as Kyle agreed.

“That’s just right. Aldo, did you have the boar meat that the three of you hunted during this time?

“… Oh, there was such a thing!”

Speaking of which, three people hunted wild boars during this time. I remember asking Loren that she would preserve it alongside other meat.

“Did you forget?”

“… I don’t have that.”

As Loren came all the time, I turned my eyes away.

I didn’t forget that I never forgot.

“… If I forget this time, will I eat everything without saying anything?”

“Excuse me”

That’s why I headed to Lauren’s house before heading to Elgis’s house.

Lauren’s house was a bit off the square.

It is a bit far from other private homes, perhaps because of premature demolition or leather tanning.

This is a characteristic of hunters and blacksmiths.

“It’s this way”

Me and Kyle are guided by Lauren and enter the storeroom at the back.

Is it a prey recently hunted there? About four masses of smoked meat were hung from the ceiling. The smell of salty preserved meat and the distinctive beast smell drifts in the hut.

“This is the boar that I hunted during this time. I’ll cut it out a little and wait.”

As I looked over the hut, Loren dropped down the boar meat hanging on the ceiling with a string

You.

Kyle sees it and pushes the stubborn pedestal at the end, bringing it under the boar.

The size of the wild boar we killed by the three of us is very large. Even the strongest Lauren would be a bit heavy to carry.

As Lauren manipulated the strings and lowered the meat, he got on the table neatly.

Loren unraveled the rope he knotted, and Kyle brought a knife to get ready to cut it.

It would have been cut out many times together like this. Both of us are used to moving.

I don’t know what tools are in the hut, so if I move, it will get in the way. Observe the deer meat hanging around.

“Oh, this is Kojika that Kyle has killed.”

“Yes, that’s the one I got.”

Kyle hears my mutter and says something proudly.

“What are you doing with Kozika alone? At least I am proud to be able to hunt steadily or a bit more beautifully. Don’t you want to help with the process? ”

“I’m sorry for that.”

Listening to Lauren’s short story, she makes a bitter laugh like Kyle tugged.

Kyle was a Kozika who defeated him after firing many arrows over time. Naturally, he did not stop with a single arrow, but repeatedly hit the body with an arrow, and Kozika’s body was full of wounds.

Maybe this Kozika leather would have been useless for the most part.

“Well, there are times like that.”

“Isn’t Aldo ever?”

“It’s pretty important for an adventurer to defeat a monster without damaging it.”

Desperately hunting monsters, but the fangs, horns, and scales that could make money are zutaboro. That’s because I can’t make money for me.

It’s okay to get rid of the monsters of urgency, but the basic earning of adventurers is still the sale of monster materials.

Defeating a ferocious monster without damaging it will be important in earning money.

“… The adventurers are at a different level to defeat the demons that attack them without damaging them.”

“Well, I can’t do that with the demon opponent every time, so I usually try not to hurt only the most valuable parts.”

“Even the ferocious monsters will attack you deadly and crazy.”

For my party, the keel was noisy there, so I did not hurt any of the parts.

If you say keel, you’re going to put pressure on things like “Never break your corners! Never break your eyes !?” Well, thanks to that, I think that I have learned how to accurately strike the other party’s key points and defeat it. I think the worst thing was Kourne, which required precise magic operations.

“Okay, I’m done!”

When Kyle and I were talking like that, Loren cut the flesh brilliantly.

There is only a big boar, and it is a considerable amount for me alone.

“I gave it a little more so I’ll give it to the village chief’s house later.”

“Thank you”

Apparently, he added color for Mr. Elgis.

When thankful for that, Lauren laughs shyly and wraps the meat in layers.

As I expected, I couldn’t bring it back with a lot of large chunks of meat.

“I’m gonna go home today.”

“Let’s take a break at home next time!”

“Yes, let me do that.”

I want to relax while having tea with Lauren’s family, but today I need to stop by Elgis’s house.

I will come again when I have time.

After waving to Kyle and Loren, who saw me off, I walked towards the village square.

◆

“Oh, Aldo-san. Are you returning from hunting?”

As he walks down the square to get to Elgis’s house, Fiona calls.

Apparently she was talking to a woman in the village because there were other women.

The gaze comes from women other than Fiona.

“Yes, that’s right.

With a big basket on your back and a bow hanging sideways, you’ll know exactly what you were doing.

“What did you pick today?”

I heard that Fiona was curious because she heard that she was split.

“Today we have mainly harvested nuts and fruits, wild plants, mushrooms, etc. that can only be harvested in autumn.”

As I lowered the basket, Fiona and another woman looked into the basket all at once.

Well, it’s faster to show it than to say it.

“Oh, that’s a lot. Aldo was the first autumn forest, but it was hard to remember, right?”

“Yes, especially mushrooms, it was especially hard to remember. I can’t go home with a reluctant thing to feed the flora.”

“Ufufu, I’m glad she takes care of my daughter.”

Fiona’s satisfied smile turned her into something embarrassing.

I feel like I’m ridiculing something like a ridiculous story.

“Ah, there’s egg bamboo!”

“The texture is good and delicious, but isn’t it crisp?”

“No, that’s good!”

“Oh, I want to add egg bamboo to dinner soup.”

Other women are talking happily while looking at the ingredients.

It’s going to be a delicate atmosphere if you only split Fiona here. And I feel that the gaze that women expect from me is being shimmered.

“If you like, please take a little bit. There is a lot.”

“Thank you!”

“So don’t hesitate …”

“Aldo, I’ll give you back in a different way!”

When I said that, the women were happily scrutinizing the ingredients.

“Sorry”

“No, I don’t mind because it was so large today that I couldn’t eat with me and Flora.”

The ingredients to split into toacs are greatly reduced, but he wouldn’t mind much.

“Yeah, it’s good. Oh, there’s a fig. I love flora, so I’ll be glad to strip it off.”

“Really!”

That’s good information. Let’s make it a dessert tonight.

“… When the flora was small, I wasn’t good at stripping, so I was stripping everything cleanly.”

Fiona says nostalgia.

“I wanted to see such a pretty sight of Flora.”

“Fufu, Aldo should look at the future.”

“Yes, I’m gonna strip the figs first and feed them.”

“Ufufufu, I think it reacts cute in a different way.”

When we were talking like that, the women thanked them and left with their ingredients.

They seem to add the ingredients to dinner.

I call out to Fiona who has forgotten it.

“Oh, so there was another thing to divide.”

“Oh? What?”

“It is smoked boar meat.”

Opening the wooden box that I had placed, Fiona exclaimed, “Oh!”

As expected, I have to barter unless I am a relative.

“Can I get this too?”

“Yes, take this big chunk”

I’ll give you a big chunk of wild boar to Fiona.

“Thank you always”

“No, I have vegetables from Elgis and Fiona, and I’m a family, so don’t worry.”

It’s embarrassing to say the word family. But it seemed like a warm word and it felt strange and soft.

Fiona, who received the meat from me, thanked herself and tried to return, but as she took two steps, she looked back as she remembered.

“Oh, yeah, Aldo. I told Flora in the morning, can I go home tomorrow afternoon?”

“Well, he’s coming to see our house that we said during this time, right?”

“Yes, Flora said it was up to Aldo’s schedule.”

Fiona nodded at the word I remembered.

Speaking of which, I’ve said before that we care about our lives, strictly the lives of Flora.

There will be no hunting tomorrow, so there should be no problem.

“Yes, I have no problem.”

“That was good. Then I’ll be with Elgis at noon tomorrow.”

“understood!”

I responded to Fiona and quickly left the square.

Fiona and Elgis will come tomorrow, so I’ll have to prepare the house.

Maybe the ready flora is already cleaning up so I have to help.

I was returning fast on the way back in the dark red.
