Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

"First, you have the Fighters, and I am sure that would be the natural class for you, but make sure to listen to the others as well," Nushi told me with her tail swinging around excitedly.

She looked cute like this, but I had to put a hand out to stop her. After that, it was time for the girls to eat. I had already taken the meat off the fire, and it was cooled now, and I had cut the meat up.

"Sorry, Nushi. Let me get everyone fed, and then you can explain it to me," I said as I gave Mary a quarter of a steak.

I gave the other three pieces to the Cerberus girls, and each of them took a piece from my hand. The three looked cute as they chewed away.

After I was done with them, I grabbed a bunch of chunks that I had cut smaller and dropped them into Mary's cleavage. The little snake hissed excitedly, and Mary cuddled into me more.

I scooped up the ant sections and popped the first two into Jilly's mouth but then handed her the rest of them. Then I grabbed Mary's steak portions after giving the Cerberus girls one more each by hand.

I couldn't feed them all the time, but I could do it a bit, and hopefully, that would still be good. So now, it was time to get back to Nushi, who was still happy and patiently waiting.

"Okay, I'm, but is there any more food?" I asked, and Nushi handed me the bag.

"I already ate my fruit while I waited for you, so you can have the skewers that are in there," Nushi said as I opened the bags and almost started to drool like Mary when I smelt the barbecued skewers inside.

That woman was trying to get into my pants with all this great food! So I submit to give her what she wants for more great food like this! Imagine what doing a proper job with her will get me!

"Thank you for bringing the food. Go ahead, and am ready to learn; I don't want to pick something that isn't going to be beneficial to the entire group," I said, and then pulled out one of the meat kabobs and bit into it; yup peeled right off the astral boar's ass; damn that was good!

"Okay, so Fighters specialized in swords, spears, and shields. They also use a combination of barbaric attack with skills like Shove and Leap," Nushi started off with.

Like she had said before, that was the most reasonable thing for me, but it did nothing to help the girls. So, I was still staying open to everything and listening attentively as I chewed on the excellent meat; how did she make the sauce glaze to be like a caramelized candy glaze?!

"Next is the Dualist, who is like the Fighter, but the more noble and quick type relies on speed and avoidance. They are proficient with daggers and Short swords, but I have seen some wield axes and chain whips," Nushi explained, and I fed Mary another chunk of steak.

Dualist was kind of what I was doing now, but again there was nothing really notable in the class. So I needed something that would be able to help me protect the girls, not just kill the bad guys.

"Marksman is the ranged class that can use a bow or crossbow, and they can also use a dagger or short sword for close combat if they have to. The Marksman is more likely to track, scout, and support fire, but they also can do minor healing," Nushi told me as she walked back and forth, waving her hands cutely as she talked.

The Marksman sounds a lot like a ranger, and that was not a bad choice, and the ability to heal was a bonus, even if it was minor. I would not always have Mary around, and if I even found someone hurt, it would be good to be able to help them.

"I already told you about the Mage, but we are Ranged damage dealers, but we can't really take much damage. So what we can do is dish it out when it works," Nushi said with a bitter smile that made her horns start to move.

"You will learn to control them, I am here, and all the rest of the girls are here to support you. I won't let anything happen to you, so you have no reason not to be able to use your magic, okay," I said to Nushi with a warm smile, and her horns stopped shaking.

"Thank you, I don't know how you plan to stop my grandmother, but I believe you will figure it out. My father wasn't wrong to trust you, but now let's talk about the Shaman class," Nushi said as she looked away from me with a red face. "The Shamans are nature Mages, but they are more hardened than Elemental Mages. If I knew what I know now, I would have picked this class; they connect with nature, and creatures, then you form bonds."

"What do you mean by bonds?" I asked, a bit leery.

I wasn't looking to adopt more pets; I had a list already.

"The Shaman takes the essence of the thing that they bond with and creates bond marks or Totems on your body. With each "Totem" you get, you will gain an ability with them, but you will only be able to activate one at a time. I liked it because, with the amount of nature and creatures globally, there is no limit to the number of Totems you can have. The only thing is that you would have to capture six elementals, or you will run out of room on your body," Nushi explained with excitement.

Well, that was one of the most universal options, and like Nushi said, there was really no limit to the bonds I could form. Then, of course, I would have to capture elementals, but maybe capture was too strong of a word.

I didn't really want to capture them, but if I could get them to work with me, then the sky was the limit. There was one class left, but Nushi didn't look too excited about explaining it.

"Last is the Necromancer, and it is one of my least favorite classes. They bring the dead back to life by taking the life from another, but what is bought back is not the same as what died. They are monsters and Abomination Mages; I would ask that you not pick this class," Nushi said, and then she crossed her arms, giving me a look that said, you had better be listening to me.

"Yes, I think that I will go with your suggestion. Necromancer sounds like a pretty good class," I said with a smile, but the drastic increase of electrical discharge from Nushi's horns made me put my hands up and laugh. "Just a joke! I'm picking Shaman; don't zap me!"
