When I went out of the town, it was a grassy field. It is called "The Beginnings Meadow". It's a name I've often heard.

'A walk with the tact.

Lily walks in front of me in a good mood, happy about what she's doing. But the pleasant walk didn't last long.

A blue boar comes out of the grass. It looks like this guy is a boa.

As I was thinking this, the boar suddenly started running towards me. It seemed to be planning to charge at me.

It would be foolish to fight in front of the boar's rush. I thought it would be better to duck and attack the flank, but something unexpected happened.

"Tact, look out!

Lily moved to the front to protect me. I mean, you're the one in danger!

Yah!

Doggone it!

What about ......?

I'd be a bit of an eye-roller right now. If you want to explain what happened right in front of me, Lily punched a rushing boa, and the boa went flying and hit a rock: ....... What the hell.

'Yippee!'

That's probably true ....... Normally, if we punched a rushing boar head-on, we'd be the one who'd get blown up. Even if you succeed in doing so, you won't escape injury.

Tact~

Lily came over to me with tears in her eyes. Lily's vitality was definitely diminished. Just a little bit, but ....... Normally I wouldn't use HP recovery items for less damage, but ...... Lily's teary eyes and my defense was as good as paper.

''Thank you. I'm not going to be the only one. It helped.

'Eh ....... Ehehe~

When I pat his head and praise him, he squints at me happily. When I look at it this way, I think again. Every single gesture is the same as a human being.

"Did it hurt?　Let's get better.

Yeah!

I take out the HP potion. Apparently I can recover if I drink it. When Lily drinks the HP potion, her HP recovers, but there's a problem. Lily has a face like she's bitten down on a bitter bug.

''Nigga~!

Apparently, HP potions are bad. It's blue in color and looks like blue Hawaii. ...... It was a close call. If Lily hadn't protected me, the HP Potion penalty would have been confirmed.

Do I have to drink this every time I get tact ...... injured?

Um, maybe I will?

Oh, my God.

Apparently, it's pretty bad. I'd like to do something about it, but I'll have to go to .......

I'm sure there's some early magic that can be used to recover.

Really?

Oh, yeah. That's what light magic is for, isn't it?

......

Lily looks at me with silent, sparkling eyes. I'm going to get it, right?　And I'm looking forward to it. But be cautious here: .......

''I've acquired light magic.''
Light magic [Heal] and [Light] have been acquired.

The info flows unceremoniously. Lily's expectant eye-gaze attack was defeated and she got the light magic. No, I don't think there are many men who can beat that one. This left me with 18 pts of skill points left.

Well, I realized how high Lily's attack power was, and if I play the role of a healer, I'll be able to fight with a little more confidence.

''Tact, I love it!

Lily hugs me. I'm a man, too. I'm glad I'm here, but it was Lily who forced me to use light magic.

'Well, uh ...... we need to dismantle that boar and take the item.

I walk up to the boa, holding Lily in my arms, and put her down. Then I take out my demolition knife and stick it into the boa and the corpse disappears and the dropped items automatically go into my inventory.

By the way, the inventory is a place where the acquired items go. In addition to items, weapons and armor can also be placed in your inventory. In this game, the number of items that can be placed in your inventory is fixed, with the upper limit being 100. It's a number I'm pretty worried about whether it's enough.

I was relieved to see that the bore was dismantled. I was afraid I'd have to dismantle the bore into pieces, but I guess gross is out in an all-ages game. Well, you can do that in a lot of settings. Apparently, if you're younger, you can't do hard settings. Well, it's hard to actually do a gory scene and get used to it.

When I appraised it, the item was displayed. Here it is.

Boa's Horn: Rare Level 1 Material Quality F-
An item taken from the horns of the boa. Used for weapons.

Boa meat: Rare Level 1 Food Quality F-.
Meat from the boa. It has a strong odor and is difficult to cook.

'Boa meat on a boa horn?'

Hoho, wild boar meat. ....... Is that a challenge to me from my part-time job at a teppanyaki restaurant?

'But I don't have any cooking utensils, seasoning or fire to cook with!

I might need skills to cook in the first place, and I don't think it's possible at this point~.

'For now, I've got the items, so let's take out a bunch of boas from now on. I'm relying on you. Lilly.

I got it!　Lilly will protect the Takt!

I then instruct Lily to duck the boa's rush and attack from the side. When Lily moves as instructed, she manages to hunt down the boa without taking any damage.

However, it's not going smoothly, and while Lily can't be defeated one-on-one, she can't deal with multiple appearances. I ducked and ducked the boa that rushed at me, and because of the size difference, I couldn't punch it like Lily, so I couldn't resist kicking it. Then the boa blows up.

'Err ......'

I didn't expect to be able to beat it with this. If I was able to beat it, is that good?

The info flows there.

''Your kicking skills have been released.''

What kind of kicking skills or ...... is it?　Will he be able to use low kicks and tie kicks?　Or do Kendo's suri-foot, shrunken feet, and other movement techniques fall into this category as well?　No. Is that going to be a walking technique?　It would be a pretty powerful skill if the shrinkage goes in, but ...... mmmm. I'm torn .......

''I've acquired a kicking skill.''
I've acquired the kicking techniques [front kick] and [foot sweep].

I got it. I spent 1 point, which left me with 17 skill points left.

No, because right now my only means of attack are my staff and punching physical attacks. Light magic is recovery and light. Light magic turned out to be just magic that makes the wand glow, so the more ways to attack, the better.

The front kick was predictable, but the foot sweep was unexpected. It's a judo or sumo technique, but in my mind, it's more of a foot than a kick. Well, let's give it a try.

In conclusion, I used the front kick and foot strike, but the discomfort is not half bad. It was said in the tutorial, but I couldn't move satisfactorily while activating the skill. If this is the case, it would be better to kick normally. If it's as per the tutorial, using the skill would do more damage. But even with that, I'd still prefer to stay normal, in my opinion.

For the next two hours, I decided to beat the boa while mining. For mining, you find a mining point on the ground and dig with a pickaxe to get an item.

Here's what I got.

Stone: rarity level 1 Material Quality F-.
A stone that becomes a street. You can get them off the roads and in the grasslands.
The easiest ore to obtain.

Well, it's the first item, so it's naturally dull. But Lily is curious.

I'm not sure I'll be able to find it.　Tact.

This is a rock. It's the stuff we use to make Lily's weapons.

'Heh!　Then we'll have to collect a lot of them!

Oh. Thanks for understanding so quickly.

'Well, I'll mine, and you, Lily, take down the boa.

I got it!　I'm not going to let Boa beat me to it!

After mining and defeating the boa successfully, there were a few happy infos along the way.

The first was when I rose to Summoner Lv 2.

《The level of the profession summoner has increased. The number of summoners I can bring to my party has increased by one.
Vocational Summoner's level has been increased. You have gained 1 skill point.

The same info was played for Lv3 and Lv4 as well, and now I can walk around with up to four summoned beasts. I have 20 pts of skill points left.

For now, the high priority at the moment would still be Lily's weapon. My weapon is a staff, and it's a basic recovery tool. It's probably not a high priority. Now, I'd like to hunt some more, but my satiety is in the red zone here, so I couldn't hunt any more.

Finally, since my level has gone up in various ways, I'll check my status.
