I glanced through the mission request board, but it’s not looking good.
There was no challenging or interesting mission request in the forest.
“Oh, are you looking to take up a mission?” [3] asked Mr. Marks-Normie-san.
“Yes. Fer and the rest wanted to go to the forest to do some hunting. I thought I might as well see if there’s any forest-related mission request.”
“Oh, the forest… I’m afraid there’s nothing suitable for a party of your skillset at t...

““You’re too loud, na.””
““Too noisy, naa.””
““Aruji~ Why so loud~?””
To be treated as the crazy party and tsukkomi-ed [8] by others is…
Wait, wait, wait, I’m not the crazy one here!

I held on to Fer’s back as he ran non-stop for about an hour.
When he finally slowed down, we were already deep in the middle of the forest. [6] I was still trying to recover from the ride when Fer said, [3] “Umu, this seems like a good place. There are no humans around.”
[6] I slipped off his back. To be honest, I’m fairly used to riding on Fer by now, but I will always be glad to have my two feet on the ground. “Alright, I’ll stay here and make our travel meals. Plea...

After breakfast, I sat down for a break in the living room with a nice cup of coffee.
By the way, as per everyone’s request, breakfast was served with lots of meat. [2] Specifically, a quick Ginger Fried Orc meat on rice. The strong meaty-gingery smell of breakfast still lingered even after it was all eaten.
“Hey everyone, tomorrow will be exactly one week since we come to this place. How about extending our stay for another three days?” I need time to stock up on more seafo...

Alright, it’s time to prepare dinner. [1] I’ve already made up my mind about what to make while we were stocking up on seafood at the market today.
Fufufufufu, today I am going to make Kaki Furai! Yes, that’s right, those Kaaki I bought earlier were basically super large oysters. The best way to eat oysters, aside from raw, is to make Kaki Furai! (Or should that be Kaaki Furai since the locals called them Kaaki?)

I left the house early the next day to stock up on more seafood at the morning market.
Since the Kraken had been dealt with, the stalls here were even more well-stocked than before. In fact, with so many people selling their goods, the seafood was fresher, with more variety and, best of all, even cheaper.
I stocked up on seafood I’d bought before. [5] The salmon-like Salken, Tyrant Fish, Vermillion Shrimps, Bronze King Crabs, various Hard Clams as well as Yellow Scallops. [1] Af...

This morning, I came to the Adventurer’s Guild at my usual time, skipping all the usual crowd in the early morning.
I was immediately shown to the Guild Master’s room by someone before I even got to the receptionist.
The door opened to show Marks-san at his table, he was clearly waiting for me. [3] “Ahh, welcome, have a seat.”
I sat down.

I had already told them we’ll be having Seafood Barbecue for lunch, [1] so I don’t want to overload my stomach now.

While Fer, Dora-chan and Sui napped in our Ocean View House's living room, [1] I found myself at a loss.
For dinner… well, it would hardly take up much time since everyone seems to want meat, meat, meat, after all that seafood.
“Fish is delicious, however, it’s boring to eat it every day. I want meat.”

Fer and Sui ate and ate through most of the stalls. They finally stopped around noon.
“Umu, that was good.”
“It’s all very yummy~ Sui’s tummy is full.”
You two really ate a lot!
Even Dora-chan was shaking his head at these two. The little dragon also ate a lot, but his efforts were nothing compared to Fer and Sui. That’s probably because he was limited by his little body. [6] Sui might look little, but she's a real big eater.

The stalls were lined up all down one side of the public square where the morning market was located.
Fer and the rest approached the stall nearest to us. [2] It was serving some kind of grilled fish fillet. The smell coming from this stall was incredible.
“Yosh, I’ll have this fish.”
“Ou!”
“Fishy~”
Everyone’s in agreement, so I went up to the stall owner, [3] “Excuse me,”

I withdrew the Sea Serpent from my [Item Box] laid out its long body on the floor. Whispers began to explode around me.

That night, I enjoyed the bath with Sui and Dora-chan. [1] Fer still refused to join us, that big baby.
After our bath, I walked upstairs, vaguely wondering where Fer had gone to. As expected, he had chosen the huge master bedroom as before and was laying on the thickly carpeted floor. [2] Still, he looked up when I came in and demanded his futon, so I obliged him.
After that, I wondered vaguely whether I should choose a different room to sleep in when Sui bounced over to the be...
