An active hunter in Hokkaido was thrown into another world.
51. Professional hunters
Is it possible to make a living as a hunter?
Given that in Japan, it would not seem possible to do so first and foremost in a fairly privileged region.
First of all, you can't be self-sufficient in the mountains.
All mountains and wilderness are privately owned or state-owned forests, and living on their own means, of course, that there is not a single place where you can shoot artillery at will, etc. Anyway, if you're saying you have one pile of paradise for the wildlife, I can't do it anymore just in this respect.
Next is the question of money.
It costs a lot of money to say hunting.
Licensing, obtaining permits, guns and related goods, insurance on registration fees, most importantly bullet bills, gas bills on cars unless you walk around the mountains you own. You can think of it as an initial investment of 500,000 yen and tens of thousands of yen each year to maintain.
Then the only income is fur and meat. This stuff is just as free because there is no demand at all.
And then there's the auxiliary expenses paid by the bureau.
This is also about the degree of gratitude to participating volunteers for a specific period of time. You can't expect any income commensurate with your expenses at all.
Hunting is a world of lucrative hobbies. I am not in Japan, such as a professional hunter.
You can assure me.
In that regard, you can say that this other world is very blessed.
I'm a professional hunter. [M]
Fur can be sold, meat can also be exchanged for vegetables and everyday items. Bones and horns are also practical products.
More importantly, I'm glad that the elf villagers recognize me as a necessary being.
In Japan, after the damage to the field caused by wildlife, a report came and said, "It's late!" "Come as soon as you call!" And if you didn't get it, "you couldn't have been there!" And he was angry, and he kept misunderstanding, "Don't bother to destroy them all, leave them behind."
What are you talking about?
You've got everything in your eye, haven't you?
Try accompanying the veteran hunter once.
You should be surprised because you will continue to follow your prey with great obsession.
You're gonna follow your footprints in the snow mountains, ski and walk around, right?
Can you do it?
If you think you're only shooting a guy in the eye off the road with a computer, it's a big mistake.
Half the hunters are farmers.
I can do my field, so I'm buying a gun and shooting it.
There are many veteran hunters who have poor gun knowledge from me.
There are a lot of people with no big arms either.
I'm still trying.
Don't tell me not to kill the bear or anything.
Why do you think a hunting association that is not a professional who usually only gets deer can only catch hippos alive when they come out? What do you have to deal with other than shooting from that hundred meters away? Why do we have to get close enough to shoot in the anesthesia gun? I don't care how many lives I have.
"I was shot dead by a local hunting association," I also want you to stop reporting stereotypical documents. Wouldn't the hunting society go out and do that on its own? It's the municipality that's making the decision to kill the bear. We're just being misunderstood if you don't report "Municipally disposed of".
That's why there's a guy in this world who's more scared of "demons" than bears...
"Demons" is the generic term for organisms that come under attack if you look at "humans" in this world......
Hirurururu - -.
A razor arrow can make a noise and shoot up.
"Sin! Over there!
I'm renting a horse today. It's a farming horse, though.
I trained horses, too, and I can ride them now.
I will follow Saran's horse desperately running forward.
I see it!
Ugh -!
It's a big spider!
Why is there such a big spider in this world!
Isn't that Mr. Lanoa's ranch!
Is it a goat? Are you aiming for a goat today?!
A hundred meters!
Get off the horse and hand Saran the reins, and load the 375 H&H Magnum bullets from the magazine to the dispensary with the Remington M700 you were carrying on one knee and operate the bolts.
Calm your breath......
Dogga--n!
Bo Hin!
Spider's big ass ripped.
Keep running and pack the distance.
The movement is dull, yes, but insects don't die as long as they've shot somewhere in their bodies.
They're totally fine with their hands and legs ripped off.
Approach up to 50 meters and shoot into the torso.
Dogga--n!
Flies over your body.
Bug-like exoskeleton creatures can bounce like shockwaves spreading inside and exploding when they shoot a bullet in.
I can't walk anymore.
I'm not dead. Because it's a bug.
Turn to the front, aim face to face from a distance of 10 m and shoot in another shot.
Dogga--n!
... I've lost my head.
Now I feel safe at last.
My legs are still moving. But you'll be just fine now.
Hmm - …….
"Ha... I was scared. Sin, thank God!
Here comes Mr. Lanoa, who set up a fork for hay, and Mr. Lanoa's son, who shot up an arrow.
Oh, good. No one can eat it.
That's about three times as many spiders as goats.
Was he the one who was witnessed in the mountains a week ago? I can't believe I've come this far already.
I'm glad you're on guard.
Three H&H magnum rounds... Too tough.
The spider has a soft impression, but when it comes to supporting a body this big, it's kachikachi. Awesome exoskeleton.
The other world is scared because enemies like this also appear.
It's been five years. What makes Murasaki de Kaikumo appear in the village?
"The village of Elves is peaceful, but sometimes these guys come out..."
"You're scared. How have you been?
"Well, we all managed to throw spears."
How can you do that, Yaji? Is the biggest weapon in this world a throwing spear after all? Tell me something. That's the most lethal thing you can do.
Every year there are one or two people in Elf Village who are hit by demons and die.
Not since I came to this world.
"What do you want to do? Burn?"
"No, that's why I'm going to fatten the field!
"Ha-ha."
"Sin, Saran, thank you for today."
"No. Don't hesitate to call me if you need anything else"
I think you were in danger this time.
Because if I had been a little behind, either Mr. Lanoa or Mr. Goat would have been eaten.
The one called 375 H&H Magnum is hard to use.
The H&H magnum in round nose drops to 70% of the bullet's power when it flies 200m.
It must be rounded because this bullet shape is good for effectively hitting large beast opponents, but because of the high air resistance, it quickly loses its power, so it approaches up to 100m.
I feel like this is how the African hunters who faced elephants and rhinos at H&H Magnum feel when they actually tried it and figured it out for the first time. You couldn't defeat me without doing this, could you?
These ballistics and other data are well written in the ammunition package.
It's all in English, but, Ma, you can see it.
I guess this is one of the things you won't know until you have a real gun.
"... Shall we take another look around the mountains? If it was a nest or an egg, it would be a mess."
"Shall we..."
I don't think you need that search.
Saran and I were talking, and the village chief came.
The villagers are here, too, pulling the thread out of the spider's ass, which is still tingling, and winding it down and down.
They use yarn for bow strings. It's sturdy.
"Uh, was it a murasaki decai spider? How do you build a nest?
"Because it's big, you're a dirt spider. Digging dirt and nesting with only females. Gain a greater amount of prey than usual to nourish before laying eggs. Look, look at your belly."
My stomach was pounding when I shot Magnum in earlier. [M]
Something round about to turn into an egg is bumpy. It's gross.
"I'm glad you laid your eggs."
It was really good. I don't want to imagine where such spiders were born in large quantities.
"But isn't it true that there are males who were in preparation for laying eggs?
"Murasaki decai spider males are small. Adults alone can defeat enough. I don't mind leaving you alone."
Is the male smaller? It's like me and Saran.
"... well, I'll take a look around."
"Oh, well, is that more reassuring? I'd appreciate it if you did."
Copy that, sir.
That's why that afternoon I followed the spider walking beast path the other way, crushing about two murasaki decai spider males with a shotgun backshot.
There were more than 3m females, but the males also have 70cm, right? It's gross.
"This... what?
There was something like a ruin stacked with mossy stones in the mountains.
It's full of spiders. Apparently, you want to root castle around here.
"Oh, this is a monastery, sealing the demon king."
"There's no such thing as a demon king! This world!"
"I'm here. About once every hundred years."
I'm surprised what Saran said.
I was asking the goddess, Mr. Nanotes, but I'm surprised it's real when I see it this way.
"There are monasteries everywhere, and with their power, they contain the Demon King."
"Heh... Scary."
"The power of this temple is weak, and when the demon king regains some strength, he appears stronger than this temple. Follow the demons and attack the humans."
"How did you get rid of him?
"When the demon king is resurrected, the brave will appear. That brave man will defeat you."
"Heh... How are brave men chosen?
"Church or something, in the kingdom. I don't know what you're choosing."
"Yeah...... Sometimes the elves are chosen?
"I don't think so. The brave men who defeat the Demon King are always human. That's why humans are the greatest and most prestigious in this world."
"Oh well."
Sounds like it's none of our business.
"I wonder what will happen when the Demon King is resurrected now?
"According to the village legend, the demons of the mountains attack the village at all costs. We usually manage to defeat them. It's hard when demons are attacked in numbers, so we run off to the lake and fight them one by one."
"Oh, that's why you have so much to prepare for the middle island of the lake."
There's an island in the middle of the lake where we live, stockpiled with weapons and food. They're all going to evacuate to this island if they have to.
Oh, all the elves can swim.
Was it for that?
"I don't think there's ever going to be a demon king while we're alive."
"I wonder what a demon king is."
"Um, the demonic big guy. It's a dragon, it's a bear, it's a wolf, it's different in times. I think the Church of the Human Brave is familiar around there."
Heh.
"Next time I go to the city, I'll check it out."
"Sin is keen to study. I don't care."
"Ha ha. I've been looking into everything."
Because he was an official of the bureau. Town crisis management and disaster preparedness are also important tasks for officials in the bureau.
Anything that could be a threat to the village, you want to work out measures in advance.
