Monster Hunt: Notes from a Hunter

"surprise?"

Gordon was stunned when he heard the words, but he really forgot that Ted didn't mention it. Before the hunting started, the latter had said that the so-called "super best crab roe" was just one of the purposes of hunting daimyo shield crabs.

And the second purpose is this "surprise".

"Hurry up, let's peel this daimyo shield crab together. I deliberately didn't damage its right claw, and took it off carefully, including the shell and claws, and collected as much as possible.

Oh, by the way, don’t forget about the dragon’s skull, pick out the strong part and cut it down. I think the horn is good, and the lower jaw. This kind of material is almost enough! "

Gordon followed Ted to work in a daze, and he didn't know why the latter collected these materials. It seemed to be for armor? Or a weapon?

He used all the dragon armor suits and weapons, so it shouldn't be necessary for him, right?

Could it be that.?

"Hey, you call me uncle, brother, we have to prepare some gifts for you." Carefully picking up the complete crab claw that was almost as tall as a person, Ted laughed and said: "This is the same period as us. A great swordsman told us.

It is said that using the material of the daimyo shield crab, a pretty good big sword can be made, the kind that can walk sideways in front of three-star monsters.

With these materials, the materials should be almost in order. After you go back to the city, you can go to the workshop to forge it. It should be much better than the Explosive Knife you are using now! "

Is it really a weapon material for yourself?

Gordon scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. To be honest, he was quite moved.

My luck in the hunting grounds is really not very good, but when it comes to meeting people, I often have great luck.

After leaving his hometown and coming to Minagarde, whether it was the president, Ohshura, Amos, the owner of the workshop, or Miles and Ted they met later, they all provided him with too much help.

I don't know when these favors will be repaid.

"Thank you! Brother Ted, then I'll accept it bluntly!"

"Hahaha, why don't you be polite, you should have a share here, you can move these things back to the camp first, I will continue to look for shield crabs!

The best crab roe, my uncle is here! "

Just a few minutes after returning to the Minagarde Hunter's Gathering House, Ted was picked up by Miles, who had returned from the mission a day earlier than them.

The stern father could guess what his silly son, who seemed to have never grown up, did in the Metabe jungle as long as he inquired about what tasks Ted had taken.

Eat, drink and be merry like a vacation in the hunting grounds? Oh, lack of education.

Watching Ted, who was loudly defending himself, being dragged away, Gordon smiled and lighted the heel wax for the former in his heart. It is better not to touch the mold of Miles in the strict instructor mode.

Ushura is the best example. The heroic huntress in the past is like a little apprentice who has been tortured by homework and is crazy, lying on the wine table motionless.

There is no time to rescue and comfort the two old brothers and sisters, Gordon himself has troubles to face-doesn't know what happened to the pork chop that was fostered by Tiji?

In fact, it’s not quite right to say “foster care”. Pig Chop is fully capable of taking care of itself. It has the key to the hut, and it can use its belongings freely. Tikki is just entrusted by him to take care of the little guy.

At that time, Gordon thought that Tiggy liked pork chop so much that he would take good care of it, but after thinking about it later, he suddenly realized that this candidate seemed to have a big problem.

Gordon met them in the staff rest area.

It happened to be lunch break now, and Tiji was resting with a drink, while the pork chop inexplicably wearing funny pajamas was tightly hugged by the former like a doll.

Although, the little guy is smooth and smooth, he looks like he has gained a lot of weight, and he is obviously taken care of very well in terms of diet, but judging by his lifeless appearance, it seems that he is not doing very well mentally.

She has hardly let go of her hand in the past few days, and even the president can't do anything about her. He said in a euphemistic way: "This is to complete the agreement with Gordon."

Noticing Gordon walking towards them, Tiki's face was full of disappointment.

"Huh~? Why did you come back?"

Gordon's face turned black when he heard this, what do you mean by "Why did you come back?", dare you expect me to hang on the hunting ground so that I can inherit my cat?

Originally, I was worried that the pork chop would be angry because I didn't bring it with me when I went on a "vacation", but who knew that when the little guy saw him, it was like seeing a savior.

Limbs and claws were twitching wildly, and the cry of "Meow Meow Meow" for help was tinged with misery.

"It's so ruthless." Noticing that the pork chop was struggling to get out of her embrace, Tiji muttered with some dissatisfaction: "Didn't you have fun at my sister's house these days?"

"No meow!" Pig Chop screamed and retorted, "You locked the door and prevented me from leaving meow!"

Gordon: "."

Although Miss Kanban was extremely reluctant and repeatedly suggested that she could "take care" of the pork chop for a few more days, Gordon still decisively took the little guy away.

What Gordon didn't expect was that after all these troubles, the intimacy of pork chops with him increased rather than decreased.

The days spent with Tiki gave Pig Chop, who aspires to become "Hardcore Elu," a taste of "a life in dire straits." In contrast, the days of hunting with Master Gordon were like heaven.

I always love hunting meow!

Return to the hut with the pork chops.

Although the pork chop was not angry with him, Gordon still took out the top-quality crab roe in his luggage as an apology.

The top-quality crab roe that has been boiled in animal fat and added a lot of salt can be preserved for a period of time. Although the taste is not as sweet and fresh as when it was fresh, and it also has a fishy smell that is unique to aquatic products, I still like pork chops very much.

Dried fish dipped in crab roe sauce until the mouth turns red.

"There are crabs as big as a house?" While eating dried crab roe and fish, while listening to Gordon's story about the pork chops he had seen and heard during this mission, he was surprised by the size of the daimyo shield crab.

"Such crab claws and crab legs must be very enjoyable to eat!"

When Gordon heard this, the corners of Gordon's mouth twitched invisibly.

It's not that he thought pork chops were greedy, but he thought so too at the time. Unfortunately, the facts told him that the bigger the crab, the better it tasted.

The meat of the daimyo shield crab is tough and tasteless, and the fibers are chewed in the mouth like chewing rubber. It's almost enough to make a pot.

He and Ted ate a lot by the sea, grilled and boiled. After trying it, the crab shell grilled with crab claw meat and crab roe is the most delicious. Next time you have a chance, you can try it with pork chops.

"What is that meow?"

While chatting, Pig Chop suddenly noticed the pile of packed luggage piled up next to Gordon's bed, and asked curiously.

"Ah, that's it!" Gordon happily unpacked the luggage, revealing a huge crab claw almost two meters high, "This is the claw of the famous shield crab!"

"What a big crab claw!" The pork chop leaned over excitedly, starting to look at the bottom of the crab claw.

Gordon immediately saw through the idea of ​​the pork chop, and reminded: "We have already removed the meat, otherwise it will rot."

"That's it, meow."

The pork chop instantly became a little disappointed, and the ears were folded off.

"The meat of this stuff is not tasty, it's too old, I'll take you to eat delicious shield crab next time!"

"Good meow!! So, is there any other use for this big crab claw?"

"Hey, this is my new weapon!"

"Use crab claws to make sword cats??!"
