"Oh, that's great..."
"Yes!"

　Vihela murmurs as she looks into the warehouse guided by Hasta.
　Bune exclaimed in agreement, and the sight spread before her... the sight of several chunks of meat hanging from the ceiling fascinated her.
　Though usually expressionless, present-day veneers have a strong light in their eyes.
　though the strong light is not like curiosity, but pure light of appetite.

"Ah! Well, I'm busy every year from late autumn to early winter. It's a collection of them."

　Hasta explains the scene in the warehouse with a smile.
　Hassta must be proud to have prepared so much meat. A little embarrassed but happy smile was seen at the startled Vihela and Bune.
　I guess it's a lot of meat that Hasta has gained by making the most of her abilities.
　There are a number of meat that can only be peeled, internal organs treated, and then cut.
　Some meat may have been treated first, some are salted for preservation, and some are treated like ham.

"There's a lot of oak meat."
"Well, I wanted more gamerions if possible, but... I'm not good enough."

　Husta told me so, but still some of the supposed Gamerion's meat hangs from the ceiling.
　Still, the fact that there is more oak meat indicates which is easier to hunt and which is more numerous.
　In addition to oak and gamerion, there are many kinds of monster meat.
　With nearly a quarter of the warehouse filled with meat, you'll see how much meat curtains there are.

"No, this meat alone is enough to cover the winter, isn't

　Even an oak weighs nearly 100 kilograms.
　When I saw many different kinds of meat hanging out, including oak, the amount served in winter at the Manjotei easily exceeded... or even seemed too much to spare.
　But at Ray's words, Hasta opens her mouth with a smile.

"When spring arrives, my father holds a meat festival when there is still meat left over."
"Flesh festival? What's the name that stimulates your curiosity?"

　It wasn't just Ray who thought so, but Bune was staring at Hasta in hopes of explaining the meat festival.
　Hasta was a little surprised that he never expected Bune to look at him like that... but he spoke happily of his father, whom he respected.

"You can eat as much meat as you like. Well, of course, it's over when the meat is gone."
"You can eat as much as you want? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

　Ray has also been to an all-you-can-eat restaurant while in Japan.
　Although it was an all-you-can-eat yakiniku restaurant, the quality of the meat was far from good, and the meat itself was cut quite thinly.
　Conversely, it would have been impossible to make a profit from the all-you‐can-eat option without doing so.
　Of course it's about the all-you-can-eat restaurant Ray knows, and I'm sure some other restaurants actually offer all-you-can-eat with solid food and meat... unfortunately that's the only one he's ever been to.
　Perhaps that was the bad management style, though, it collapsed shortly before Ray came to Elgin.

(Even though you can eat all-you-can-eat yakiniku, in the end there were more dishes than yakiniku.)

　Ray was so dissatisfied, but he was still a popular place among students, both young and junior high school students, in terms of quantity rather than quality. ...including Ray.

"Well, it's better to cook it well than let it rot. It also advertises the store. ...if you don't mind, why don't you join the meat festival this year?"
"Is that all right?"

　Ray knows how much he eats.
　Also, not only myself, but also Bune eats the opposite amount of food.
　Ray asks if they can attend the meat festival, but Hasta nods that there is no problem.

"But Set... I'm sorry,"
"I suppose,"

　Ray nods to Hasta, who is literally apologetic.
　Given the size and appetite of the cet, it is safe to eat up most of the meat prepared by the cet alone.
　As for the meat festival, it was a matter of unprofitable consideration for both stock clearance and the advertisement of the shop, but even so, if you eat most of the meat only in Seto, there will be a lot of problems.

(Well, in that case, if you hold a party to love Seto... Huh? Would that be more crowded than I expected?)

　As the name suggests, it's mostly men... young men in their prime of eating.
　Of course, there are also young women and old men, but the percentage is not so high.
　But when it comes to gathering to love Seto, it's going to be a mass gathering, regardless of age or s*x.
　Semi-gilm idols and mascot characters have the power to attract customers.
　With that in mind, Hasta wonders if it's better.
　It may decrease if you think of the store's pure sales, but if you think of it as an advertisement for the store, it's definitely better to have Seto.

"Wait a minute, please. Maybe I can call Seto. ...but I have to ask my father to confirm this matter, so could you wait a moment?"
"Huh? Well, I'd be happy if Seto could join me, but is that really OK?"
"Yes, of course," Maybe we can attract more customers than we can at a meat festival."

　Hasta's gaze was on the warehouse wall... ...to the set waiting beyond it.
　With that kind of behavior, Ray probably understood what the other person wanted to say. I won't go further on the matter, but I'll move on to the reason why I came to this warehouse this time.

"That, by the way," I'd like to disassemble the monster that I hunted to-day, then, would you mind?"
"Ray, I'll just ask you, but today we're only dismantling snow salamanders, are we going to put off the goblin?"

　I didn't say it clearly, but it was clear what Marina wanted to say when she interrupted me.
　That is to say, you're not going to dismantle the goblins, are you?
　But Ray has no intention of dismantling the goblin from the start.
　This goblin was originally prepared so that it wouldn't be undead... and to eat the goblin meat deliciously, just in case it ran out of meat in the study.

"Goblin?"

　Marina's words make Hasta a little nervous... but she asks Ray, turning a little red.
　Marina is a guildmaster from the perspective of Hasta, but she is still very attractive as a woman.
　Vichela is as beautiful as Marina, but Hasta probably preferred Marina.
　Still, I managed to speak because I was concerned about the word goblin meat.
　the flesh of a goblin that a novice who has just become an adventurer would rather starve to death...
　He has a deep knowledge of food -- Hasta's assumption -- but why would Ray be interested in it?
　It was only natural for a son of Manjotei to question it.
　But Ray doesn't study goblin meat in secret.
　That's why I say the answer easily.

"I'm doing some research on how to eat some goblin meat deliciously said.
"...are you serious?"

　You probably didn't expect to mention that you were studying the study itself.
　Hasta casts a startled glance at Ray.

"I don't know which word it is about, but I'm serious about the research. Well, the guy I'm researching with is so busy that the research itself has stopped."
"...I've heard that my father used to study goblin meat when he was little, but it seems that he gave up when he couldn't help it."
"Dishot? ... I see.For the owner of the Manjotei, who serves cheap and good food, if he could enjoy the goblin meat, it would add to the menu.
　But even those disshots eventually gave up the study of goblin meat.
　Ray looks a little disappointed about it, but before he can say anything, Bune pulls Ray's dragon robe.

"Yes,"

　Ray soon knew what he meant.
　I'm saying that I'm not going to waste any time and I'm going to dismantle the snow salamander quickly.

"Well, it's no use talking like this forever. Hasta, we're going to dismantle it, but what about you?"
"Well, yes," Snow Salamander is a monster that I have never encountered before, so may I take a look at it?"
"Oh, I don't mind," right?"

　Just to confirm, Ray asks the other three people.
　All three of them show no opposition to the gaze.
　Some people don't like to show people how to disassemble monsters as their own technology, but fortunately none of them are here.

"Thank you very much. It's helpful."

　Listening to these words, the Rays head for a place without a meat curtain... but with a platform where they can work properly.
　Meat curtains are also hung in a well thought out fashion.
　If you run out of meat for some reason during the winter, you can bring the fallen monster here and disassemble it.

"I'll take it out,"

　With the words, Snow Salamander emerges from Ray's mistling.
　The height is 1m, and if you include it up to the tail, it is nearly 2m in length.
　It is a monster of considerable size for a lizard.

"Is this... a snow salamander?" I've heard of it, but it's the first time I've seen it in person."
"Huh? So have you ever seen anything other than that?"
"Oh, yes. I saw my father buy from an adventurer a few years ago. At that time, it had already been disassembled into pieces of meat. "The mountain birds were thicker and tasted more refreshing, and it was very delicious."
"...dense and refreshing? Well, I don't think so." You'll find out if you take this apart and eat it. Then I'll do it at once."

　In Rey's words, Marina, Vihela and even Bune take out a knife to disassemble and put a blade on a snow salamander on a stand.

"Well, shall I help you?"
"No, that's fine. It's kind of like party practice, too. I want to be able to dismantle it with this number of people. -- above all, there's no room."
"... haha,"

　Hasta laughs shyly at Ray's words.
　It was a snowsalamander of a certain size, but it was still too small for four people to dismantle.
　The veneers are small, so this number of people can be dismantled without any problems, but if there was another adult here instead of veneers, it would have been quite difficult to move.
　In fact, it is safe to say that it was well dismantled because of this number of people.

"Do you want to cut off your head?"
"Then I'll peel it off," I'd like the viscera, please."
"There are several places in the internal organs that can be sold as ingredients, so be careful."
"Yes,"

　Marina has the most detailed knowledge of snow salamanders, so she will disassemble them according to her instructions.
　Cut off the head, peel off the skin...

"What? Is this okay?"

　The voice of surprise came from Vihela.
　The reason was evident from the snow salamander meat.
　The flesh is white... not white, but fresh snow.
　Vichela may well be surprised to see such meat.
　...and as a result, there were some drops of blood on my face.

"No problem. This is snow salamander meat."
"Well, the meat I saw was white, too. but I think it was more turbid."
"Oh, that's the difference in freshness. As time goes by after dismantling, the white becomes cloudy white, even white."

　In a conversation between people who know the flesh of the snow salamander, the Rays move forward with their dismantling.
　After about an hour, the demolition was successful and they headed for Manjokutei as a launch.
