Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

After having to hold Mary under my arm and fend off Jilly with the fire sword for about fifteen minutes, turning them once, they were done. The smell of the meat was quite good, and it filled the air, so I could see why it had to keep the girls back.

This was probably the best thing that either of them had ever smelled. The bit of human in each of them yearned for the complexity of flavor.

Eating fresh meat was probably second nature to them and every other monster. If they could all eat it raw, why would they try to cook?

Now, I grabbed some burnt point short spear that I used to skewer the steaks. I was tempted to give Jilly hers right away in payment for trying to kill me, but instead, I spent five minutes running around waving meat sticks around while holding Mary off.

I was trying to cool them off, but Jilly took it as me running away. Instead, being the intelligent centipede, she was had decided not to chase me. Instead, she grabbed one of the hot steaks that I had pulled away from the main coals.

I turned around and started to run back, letting Mary have her meat stick that was not cooled enough now. I tried to call out to Jilly to stop as I felt the hot juices drip down my back from the meat Mary was eating.

I had noticed that even though the meat stunk and it was a bit dark, the fat marbling was excellent, and the steak was almost three fingers thick when I put them on. I watched helplessly as Jilly savagely and hot greasy juice squirted out, and then all hell broke loose.

"EEEEE! MOY MOUF HWERTS! I AUM DEEEING! IT BWURNS!" Jilly squealed as she writhed in pain.

Maybe flailing was a more apt description of the dangerous way her body and tapered legs were flying around. I pulled off my shirt and attempted to get close to her.

"Jilly, I know it hurts, but calm down, and I will wipe you off. The steaks weren't that hot, and they will be just minor burns," I said calmly while holding out my mostly soaked shirt and her meat stick in the other.

Jilly had a wild look in her eyes, but she started to slow down, so I kept slowly advancing. I had to trust that Mary's system would keep me safe.

Jilly was calming down now, and she was starting to lower herself to me, and she was starting to look less like a monster. I was distracted by the moment, so it was hard to be surprised at how she acted.

"I gertsss… a new ssskill!" Mary cried out as she must have been finishing chewing some meat.

The sound didn't seem to bother Jilly as she continued to lower herself to me, but Mary reached her free hand forward. A bottle of green liquid and a white towel appeared, and they fell to the ground because I had no free hands to grab them.

I stopped and dropped my shirt and scooped up the almost dryer fresh and soft white bath towel. This was something different, but I had to focus on Jilly, who was now right in front of me with a whimpering look on her face.

I slowly and gently wiped the grease off, but the burns had left red lines and splotches all over her beautiful and fair skin. Once I was done, I grabbed the bottle of green stuff, and I was pretty sure what it was, and when I picked up the bottle and tried shaking it around, I was sure.

I took the top off and shook out wired aloe vera gel that could be used to help soothe and treat wounds. I started to put some on her neck and chest area, trying not to give too much thought to the voluptuous breast that I was fondling in the process.

After I finished applying the gel, I took a step back and then gaped in surprise. All the burns were gone; only the slightly wet-looking spots were the only reminder of where they had once been.

I handed Jilly their meat stick I had set off the side in the ground for her and then looked at the bottle of gel in my hands. Then it exploded into a scentless puff of smoke that didn't even seem real, but the bottle was gone.

At the same time, the cloth exploded the same, and I was left staring stupidly. Whatever that stuff was, it was more than just standard aloe vera gel; nothing could have healed minor burns that fast… it was like magic… MAGIC?!

"Jilly, is there magic in this world?" I asked seriously as Jilly was enjoying her meat, slowly this time.

I went and sat back at my rock by the fire and grabbed one of my steaks, the one Jilly had tossed was about eight meters away.

"Yeah… we are magic, and the sword… and dagger you have... are magic," Jilly said between bites.

"...Okay, then what do you do for money in this world? What I mean is, what do you pay this rent that you owe with?" I asked after taking a bite of the meat.

The flavor was very bland and a bit gamey, but it was better than pickled eggs, so good enough for me, and it was protein. I need to keep eating if I want to keep my girlish figure up.

"MP or Monster points, there are people all over that you can do tasks for, and some you can do more than once if they need the same job done. Others will just pop up, but sometimes they are too hard to complete," Jilly explained as she came over and took my other two pieces of meat.

She was about to eat both of the steaks, but then she noticed Mary hanging over my shoulder, sniffing the air. I had to put a hand up because the snakes were licking the air as well. Jilly sighed but handed the second piece over to Mary, who took it gratefully.

I savored my single piece of meat as the girl both let out satisfied sighs of relief. At least they were happy, was my thought, but then something the annoying god was back.

<You have completed all the requirement for a unique system that I think will be perfect for a guy like you that doesn't want the easy way!>

Hmmm? Suspect, but was I really in a place to say no this time, after everything I had learned?
