Chapter 39

Also, Goblin Subjugation

How about a goblin subjugation commission as well? You could even do a boar subjugation while youre at it.

She was saying that accepting the rabbit commission (six of them) was basically going to get a certain fast food.

Still, though its usually a subjugation commission, it seems that youre able to accept the commissions after subjugating them. Since you complete commissions by handing in parts for proof, nothing changes even if you accept it later on. Though since theres no toll on the gate for leaving if you accept it beforehand, you dont need to worry about having the commission withdrawn.

Well, looks like this is a recommendation.

Goblins are destructive things that ruin fields. It seems that the target for this is the ones that are spreading into the field outside of the north gate. Although there are fields inside the gates as well, the land is cultivated at all costs since plots are expensive. Since it was just goblins and boars (wild boars likely) that were wrecking the fields, having adventurers hunt them was enough. Comparing it to the costs of the land, it seemed to be considerably inexpensive.

Boars dont appear often and their meat appears to be delicious, so they would be purchased for somewhere between one to two silver coins each, depending on their size. The part for proving its subjugation was its nose, but that seemed to be the most delicious part.

Meanwhile, it seemed that goblins turned into pretty good fertilizer when carved up and scattered across the field. After you took the right ears off them, Im told you only need to put the corpses near the field What about undeadification? Is that okay?

Goblin and boar subjugations always appeared as F-rank commissions and when bringing in five goblins worth of right ears youd receive thirty copper coins.

Boars were ten coppers for turning in the snout, or one copper and the snout. It appears that they would segment the snout into three parts right then if you chose to keep it. (They would divide it into three to prevent people from turning it in as commission completion again. They didnt just divide it into two because it seems that usually happens while defeating it.)

Boars were delicious in two meanings, I didnt need to worry about transporting them due to [Storage] either.

And so, although were heading west this time, well actively look for them in whatever direction we can find them. Ichika is brimming with motivation for the boars though I thought that, it wasnt that much. I wonder why?

I hunted those when I was an adventurer probably not much now un, its nothing. Ah, I guarantee their flavor yeah?

Looks like shes already given them her motivation.

*

Well, we headed out of the west gate for rabbit hunting.

Although I had huge hopes for Meat-sensei, I wanted to see how the newcomer Ichika worked.

Anyhow, shes a former C-rank adventurer, so she should definitely live up to it. Particularly when its for something delicious.

Since she was unarmed for the time being, I lent her my sword.

Ah, thanks. Well unarmeds alright for rabbits yeah? Their value goes down if ya mess up their fur. Thats why its common sense to defeat em without damaging them as much as ya can.

Hmm? But you cant drain their blood that way.

Drain their blood? Whats that?

Eh, she doesnt know about draining blood?

If you drain all of the blood from the meat, the meat wont smell bad. The taste improves too. Its mostly the blood that makes the meat smelly after all.

Heeh! I didnt know that. Ya know a lot even though you dont have any common sense huh, I see, it wont smell un, then a lot of kinds of meat will become tasty huh Fufufu.

Ichika was drooling while imagining the meat. Seriously, her appetite is demonic.

Well, how do ya do it?

Itll be easy if you see it happen Meat, go hunt one.

Yes.

Meat walked into the forest. Thirty seconds later, she brought back a rabbit. Its neck was magnificently severed in a single stroke.

I suspended it by its feet, causing blood to overflow from it and form a pool on the ground at my feet.

If you do it like this, when you behead it and hand it upside down, its blood will flow out. When blood stops coming out, thats it Easy right?

Ooh Meat-senpai hunted something so small like it was nothin. I mean, thirty seconds to get a rabbit, were ya a hunter before becomin a slave? You knew where the rabbit was in the forest

? Isnt it easy? You can find them from their smell.

Right, Meat-senpais a beastkin. I knew that No, that was good with those tiny arms

She was saying stuff like that, but next was Ichikas turn.

Since I want to see how practical she is, I left Meat with draining the rabbits blood and followed behind her.

Advancing into the forest, Ichika sometimes stopped and listened carefully.

After around five minutes, she suddenly brandished the sword and quickly swung it vertically down towards the ground near her.

Alright, guess this is good? Oh, a ton of bloods comin out

Quickly, the beheaded rabbit was lifted by its feet. As expected from a former C-rank, looks like she was able to end it with a single clean blow.

Un, normal strength huh. Felling its neck with a single hit you look like someone with finesse.

Thats right~, I was a scout after all. A dagger woulda been well I could do with a carving knife. I can also use a bow to get birds or something to eat too.

A carving knife huh, lets make one when we return.

I can also cook~, wasnt I just a great bargain~. Wanna know somethin? My original price was fifteen gold yknow? Reeeally, fifty silver for me huuuh I just bit that off.

Its the first time Ive heard your original price, but isnt it definitely from biting it off?

I tensed up hearing it even now.

But even goblins taste good after drainin their blood right? I didnt think it would be sooooooo bad though.

You ate it

Before I became a slave, I was in the Imperial Capitals underground arena to pay back my debt well, Goshujin-sama held what he called a [Strange Eater] freak show I had to fight against various demons, eating everything as a set. I ate goblins or other things like that, everything but the bones Goblin roe is really bad Tahaha

Ichika laughed as though ashamed.

So there was even something like an underground arena too?

This worlds amusement facilities stink of crime, too huh.

For now, we returned to where Meat was.

Ah, welcome back, Goshujin-sama.

Surrounding Meat, who was standing up while holding the rabbit, were five goblin corpses. All five of their necks were severed clean.

Lured out by the smell of blood, moreover attacking since there was a small child, looks like the tables were pretty much turned on them huh.

Yeah

Ah~, it happened after all~. I had a feeling~

I didnt notice at all.

Instant deaths huh Meat-senpai, howd you beat em?

They surrounded me, so, I had the rabbit in one hand, so I used my other hand.

Reproducing her movements, Meat held the rabbit in her left hand and the blade golem in her right hand. She whirled around like a ballet dancer with her left foot acting as an axis.

The blades height was just enough to sever the goblins heads.

Even though she was assisted by the clothes golem, I didnt teach her those movements.

It doesnt have movement assistance like mine, just physical strength reinforcement.

Those arent the movements of an F-rank What kind of trainin did ya do?

I wonder?

At any rate, the goblin suppression commission is done.

I cut off their right ears as proof.

Well, Ill leave the remaining four rabbits to you two.

Huh, what about Goshujin-sama?

Im not good with swords the customers demand is for delicious meat, so Ill be in charge of draining there blood here.

Really? You looked trained from the way you were walking though.

Ah, that was the clothes golems assistance.

Hmm? Im not doing anything in this commission? Eating without working is the best!

Ah, but being in charge of the draining is work huh

*

Meat~

Finding a rabbit, its head was dismissed in the next instant.

Even though Ichika was a former C-rank adventurer, she was a bit worried about the feeling shown by Meats performance.

Rather, Meat-senpai, is that a magic sword?

I dont know. I got this from Goshujin-sama.

Quickly shaking the sword in her hand, blood flew off of it beautifully. There was no need to use [Cleanup], evidence that the sword was a very good one. It was also proof that her sword technique could cut cleanly.

Meat held up her sword, once again looking for rabbits. Ichika was holding the rabbit meat.

Meat was excellent in searching for their prey. Being able to separate the smell of blood from those theyd hunted from the ambient rabbit smell, Ichika felt it wasnt just skill anymore.

But, Meat-senpai was trained in various things despite being Meat huh.

? What do you mean?

Eh? No, Meat is ah. Aah~. I get it.

Ichika just realized it. Their Goshujin-sama probably named her [Meat] without knowing that meat meant [Sex Slave (Meat)].

And that her Goshujin-sama told her to teach him any common sense she thought of. If thats how it was, she would have to teach him for now. Slaves couldnt go against their owners rules, even verbal commands.

Ah~. [Meat] means

More or less, Ichika told taught her a slightly obscured meaning of was [Meat] meant.

Even though it was obscured, Meat definitely understood the meaning.

For Meat, she was aware of the significance of the act with her vague memories of it.

(So it was something like that?)

She understood as though it happened to someone else.

Then, she thought for a moment.

The head of a rabbit she just found flew away while she thought. The amount of corpses increased by one.

Lets keep this a secret from Goshujin-sama.

Hoh?

Ichika raised her eyebrows in inquiry.

As for Meat, she answered while staring at the rabbit.

This name is one Goshujin-sama gave to me for the first time, something I cherish. If my name changes now, or if it stays like this from here on, its not a problem. So, its fine to keep a secret.

It felt somewhat odd, but Ichika held back her response seeing Meats bewitching smile.

She looked like a beastkin adventurer that Ichika used to know.

For beastkin, they instinctual felt names given to them from their parents were valuable. He said that. In fact, he held pride in being given a name associated with the hero, continuing to always exhaust himself in fulfilling it.

Being proud of your name, you wouldnt be ashamed of it. Even she had lost her original name when she became a slave, beastkin absolutely wouldnt. Even if it looked like they cast it away on the surface.

However, Meats current expression looked just as determined as his. At the same time, it felt glad.

If it was put into words, it would be something like [I can do it].

To Ichika, she didnt think it was the expression of a child at all.

But thats a problem huuuh, I promised Goshujin-sama. Meat-senpai also knows right? He said, Teach common sense I cant go against a verbal command as a slave, right?

Meat tilted her
