Lesson 32: Life in the Village Part II

"Dora, it's Rio that we're going to be living in our village for a while from today. You and this girl already have information. She looks like this, she's got a lot of strength, so give her all the best."

Having had breakfast, Rio was led by Yuba to the hunter of the village.

"It took me a while to introduce you. My name is Rio. I'm immature, but I hope I can help."

Following Yuba's introduction, he introduces himself briefly.

"Whoa! Nice to meet you!

Then the man called Dora answered with a sunny grin.

A man of the stature of a big bear, but his character also seems quite luxurious.

"But how did you get to me alone? Hit me..."

Dora sends her gaze to Yuba, as if there were any verses that come to mind.

"Oh, you, because you moaned about wanting a successor to the hunt. This kid seems to have some experience, so I thought it would be just fine. Probably, but I'm pretty good at it."

And Yuba said in a strange way that he trusted Rio.

Some of Rio's remarks in earlier dishes will have proven to be practical.

It would be the effect.

Can you trust Yuba's words, who is also an elder, and honestly revealed his joyful expression?

"You're a hunter. Don't help him. But from what I can tell, Rio hasn't lived here forever, has he?

You remembered Yuba's words at the beginning of living for a while, and Dora said that.

"Oh. So if you're going to be able to afford to see how this kid is hunting, hopefully you'll spend some time nurturing him by looking at a successor candidate from a young man."

"Is that true!? That'll help!

Dra gave a joyful voice with the look on her face.

"Then why don't we just act in pairs today? I want to see how much I can do."

"Okay."

In spiritual people, based on Mendel's laws, cattle, pigs, chickens, etc. for meat have also been successfully lived, but some organisms had delicious meat, although livestock is difficult due to living conditions, temperament, etc.

Those creatures were subject to hunting, and Rio was also allowed to follow the hunt among the spiritual people to learn the skills necessary for hunting.

On the other hand, he keeps livestock within the human race's society.

However, they will be kept on the assumption that they are assets for the labour of manual work, for egg feeding, for milking and for trafficking, with the exception of cities full of objects.

Livestock kept in villages is therefore seldom edible, unless it is winter when vegetables are no longer picked, during festivals, or when they are no longer able to work due to injury or age.

The hunter would have an important role to play in bringing meat to the village's diet, and the lack of a successor to it was a serious problem.

"Looks like you two can handle this later. I can afford a workforce up to two people about my successor, so let me know if you have a good looking kid."

Seeing how Rio and Dora were doing, I decided I could finish my upbeat first meeting for now, and Yuba said so.

"Okay. One is going to leave it to our daughter's pardon daughter-in-law. I wonder what the other one will do. Well, I'll go tell the elders when I decide."

Nodding at Dora's words, Yuba walked toward those who had a home.

"Hey, good to see you today. Rio."

When Yuba walked away, Dora said with a refreshing grin.

"Yes. Nice to meet you. Mr. Dora."

Rio also returns his greetings, thinking you're a well-ventilated man.

"Ha, it's itchy, and you don't have to have that tough tone. I can't care less about words when there's an emergency in the middle of a hunt."

Somewhere lit up, Dora says.

"Right. Okay, nice to meet you. Dora. I'll crush more words in an emergency, but now give me a break with this. Because it's like a habit."

Rio gave a slightly shy, bitterly smiling look.

"Well, you're an unusual guy. But I don't hate that kind of thing."

That's what I say, nigga, and Dora laughs.

Rio thought he was going to be able to do well with this person apparently.

The extraction of Yuba, who tried to make Rio do the hunting, may also have to do with the character of Dra.

"Well, let's start with a simple hand-sign."

And Rio said that in doing the hunt.

"Hand sign? What the hell?

Then Dora makes a strange voice.

"When you don't want to make a sound, you can arrange rules beforehand so that you can communicate your intentions with just the movement of your hand."

Rio teaches Dra what handsigns mean.

"Wow. That sounds convenient. I see, shall we try? What kind of stuff do you have?

I will teach a pretty ridden dra a simple hand sign for hunting that Rio also used among the spiritual people.

While Dora seemed intrigued, she seemed to immediately understand the importance of handsigns and was listening seriously to Rio's explanation.

"All right, let's go!

Then when Dora told me about the animals that lived around here and the hunting rules that Dora was deciding on, they walked off into the woods near the village for the hunt.

Since entering the woods, conversations are diminished slightly, eventually nothing but minimal conversations, and gaze and hand signs are woven to communicate the will.

"You're good."

When he saw an arrow shot by Rio pierced a soft, fat bird named Renou Bird, he whined as little as Dora admired him.

He has the ability to erase signs and discover traces of prey in a way that blends naturally, he has knowledge of prey habits, he has the insight to track prey footprints, and when he finds prey, he quickly and reliably releases an arrow in one shot.

He looked like a hunter so complete that he couldn't complain from the side.

I'm also used to doing blood work to keep the meat from smelling.

He also made a good impression from the dra that he was offering his gratitude to the sacrificial creatures.

Then he did not hunt too much prey in one place to avoid collapsing the forest ecosystem, but spread the hunt moderately.

The next prey I find is a wild rabbit.

When we discover the slightest trace of a wild rabbit passing through, we track its footprint.

Second, there was a point where that footprint disappeared.

Probably intentionally jumped hard to protect himself from natural enemies and hid traces.

However, Rio had argued by rule of thumb that if animals often turn to predators to perform such acts, it was usually time to rest near them.

Turning off the signs and the noise, I searched the vicinity mindfully and discovered one wild rabbit that was still motionless.

Luckily, Noragi still doesn't seem to have noticed the presence of Rio and Dora.

When he gave the signal with his hand sign, Rio circled to the side of the wild rabbit.

And bow quietly.

It's the head you should be after.

When an arrow hits the torso, the flesh is damaged by the bleeding.

As you concentrate your whole nerve to synchronize your prey's breath with your own, Rio shoots an arrow.

The arrow made a quiet wind incision and proceeded, piercing Gusari, and Noragi's brain.

"Well done. A boulder."

Confirming that he had finished the hare, when Rio walked to the hare, Dora came and said so.

The rabbit still seems to be alive, trying to get away with moving his legs.

But Rio stabbed him to a stop because he couldn't move well and kept his breath out.

When you meditate your eyes and pray silently like you pray for something, you begin to drain the blood of a neat wild rabbit.

And in a few minutes of the stuff, I finished draining blood, including washing water.

"Good luck. Then you're the next prey"

He was a dra staring at Rio's work in silence, but when Rio finished the work, he said that gently as he would labor.

Rio nodded small, putting the hunted rabbit in a bag of hips.

Then, hunting some prey, it was sometime before noon, so the two decided to head back to the village.

"No, it's a big deal. Much more qualitative than I am. It's been a long day."

I just got back in front of the village, and Dora said with a lavish laugh.

Until then the tingling air seemed to lie.

"It's also a big deal that Mr. Dora helped us push."

Yes, Dra had caught his prey's attention or pushed him to make it easier for Rio to hunt.

I'm sure it was due to the hand sign, but for impromptu collaboration, it was really breathtaking.

"Ha, don't be modest. Wherever you go, you can be a first-rate hunter. I saw what you looked like and I wouzzed you. I'll show you some other hunting grounds in the afternoon, but I don't think you'll need them anymore."

And, Dora has suggested that in a cheerful way.

"Right. Mr. Dora also has a successor to train, so please give priority to that."

"Oh, thanks."

When he returned to the village, he hung the hunted prey upside down and carried out the demolition.

When I began to learn to hunt in earnest among the Spirit's people, Rio also felt resistant, but now embraced that cruel act as a necessity.

A man is a weak species who cannot live without the sacrifice of other creatures, and it is something that someone must also carry out these tasks.

Because that's what living is all about.

But so is the moment of blood drain, but no matter how many times you go through it, you're sure it doesn't feel good to dismantle a freshly-dead creature.

It was a moment when my heart couldn't help but tremble, without feeling guilty, seeing what I was feeding and living, and how arrogant a race people were.

That's why Rio gives thanks to the animals he hunts.

Thank you for feeding yourself.

Then, when he got home from work, he turned the hunted meat into a souvenir and Rio went straight home.

Use soap to wash your body in order to remove the smell of the blood of the beast creeping into your body.

"Wow, it smells so good from Rio!

When I washed my body and went to the hall, Luli reacted agile to the scent emitted from Rio.

"I used soap."

That said, Rio showed Luli a bottle with liquid.

"Shh, soap!? This is it?"

Soap is a luxury product, not something you can get your hands on, let alone something you don't see first in a village like this.

Incidentally, what is used among the human race is solid soap, and among the civilian population vinegar is commonly used as a substitute for soap.

Luli raised her surprise when she was told that such a thing was in front of her.

"Yeah. I told you I could make drugs. You can make soap."

Rio carries liquid soap for hand and hair wash all the time.

It is an indispensable item from the point of view of hygiene, although the occasions used to smell the body during the journey must be chosen.

"Heh heh, Grandma's a pharmacist too, but I don't think she knows how to make soap. Rio, that's amazing."

Luli sends a look of respect to Rio.

"It's pretty easy to make as long as you have the ingredients. I'll leave it at home so Mr. Luli can use it freely."

"Huh!? Oh, me? I hear that soap is what nobles use, so it's itchy."

Luli's hand, who says that somewhere embarrassing, is rough on me with daily work.

"Don't hesitate, I'll make the villagers' share with the medicine for rough skin."

Yes, Rio was looking to improve hygiene in the village.

Typically, many of the villagers suffer from disease.

There must be a dead man when it's terrible.

Rio is treading that the cause is hygienic.

Insanity is the source of all illnesses.

If we do badly, the village could be destroyed.

Simply habituating hand washing with soap would prevent the damage caused by the infection considerably.

"Yeah? Am I supposed to distribute such luxury items to villagers?

"Well, if it's about the villagers' share, there's no problem."

It is troublesome to make that number of soaps, but the number of villagers is known.

Thoroughing up hygiene in your own home alone doesn't make sense when germs are transported via villagers.

Exactly. If this is a city or city, I'll give up free distribution, but it would be more of a problem for Yuba and Luli to get sick there.

"Ugh, yeah. Well, it's hard to..."

Luli, who received a bottle from Rio, gets a terrible soap.

"I knew it smelled good. This smells like golden wood rhino, right?

Moving and foaming his hands as Rio instructed, Luli asked what constituted the smell.

"Yeah, that's right."

Rio replied with a smile on his face to Luli, who moves his nose in an intriguing way.

"It smells good."

Luli is in a very good mood to wash her hands with a cross nose.

Even for her, Rio thought she had to find out where the herbs could be picked in the near field early in order to make new soaps.
