I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

After the snow lions squeaked and burrowed into the snow to escape, Yuhaka looked at them and wondered whether he should chase after them and kill them. However, seeing that the snow lions had little meat on them, Yuhaka lost interest in the skinny creatures.

“OwO~”

Yuhaka looked at the Snow Lion King lying motionless on the ground and had an expression that suggested he should cook it. After all, looking at the Snow Lion King's strong elbow, Yuhaka wanted to try braising it to see if it would taste good.

After placing the Snow Lion King's corpse into his dimensional cave, Ehaka transformed back into his second form. Unlike his previous second form, this time Ehaka's second form resembled Nanachi's, with white fur.

However, unlike Nanachi, whose entire body is covered in downy fur, Yuhaka only has white downy fur on her limbs and body. This downy fur is the essence that Yuhaka just obtained from the Snow Lion King, and it is basically a cold-proof property. Of course, this downy fur is not 100% cold-proof.

"O_O?"

Yuhaka looked around at his surroundings with a puzzled expression as he stepped on the snow. Although he didn't know where he was, he could smell the familiar scent in the air and guessed where he was.

“OwO~”

Now that he knew where he was, Yuhaka decided to look for something delicious to eat on the snow.

Yuhaka spread its downy wings and flapped them to take flight. From high above, Yuhaka could see that below it was a vast expanse of white land. Apart from some black rocks, only a few creatures gave this white snowfield a little color.

Meanwhile, in the Yuhaka system space, Zelus frowned as she looked at the notification on her system panel and said:

"Holy crap, my kid just dealt with the Shattered Dragon and now some kind of void transfer phenomenon has brought him to this world?"

Zelus was a bit troubled by the void transfer phenomenon that occurred as soon as she returned. After all, her little rascal didn't listen to her at all, and the two [Zelusa's exclusive] Yuhaka navigation cats, Rorota and Rokubei, weren't located at this snow mountain location, making it difficult for Zelus to summon them over.

"Ok?"

While investigating the location of the Void Transfer Phenomenon, Zelus suddenly discovered a problem: the target of the Void Transfer Phenomenon was located at the snow mountain where Yuhaka was. This made Zelus wonder if she was having a lucky day.

Zelus didn't dislike this outcome; it made it easier for her to urge Yuhaka to take care of that target.

As for Yhaka...

On a snowy mountain, Yuhaka emerged from the snow with long, white hair that blended in with the surroundings, looking down at the herd of Bobo beasts. Yuhaka couldn't help but swallow hard as he looked at the large group of Bobo. The salt-baked Bobo tongue and thick-cut Bobo tongue he had eaten last time made the taste deeply ingrained in Yuhaka's memory and body.

The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. The aroma of the meat and the flavor of the various seasonings spread in the mouth, making Yohaka's mouth water. However, the confirmation work still needed to be done.

Then, Ehaka took out the "ingredient" encyclopedia (actually a monster encyclopedia) he had bought last time from his dimensional cave, checked the appearance of Pidgey, and then looked at the Pidgey herd below. After nodding, he put his "ingredient" encyclopedia back into his dimensional cave. Ehaka then stretched his body, took a few steps back, rushed out of the cliff, and jumped off.

"Roar----!!"

Just as Ehaka was about to transform into his third form to hunt the Pidgey horde, a huge orange figure descended from the sky into the Pidgey horde with a tremendous roar. Ehaka was startled by the sudden roar and fell headfirst into the snow. If you listened carefully, you could hear a loud "clang!" The sound of the impact was so loud that Zelus in the system space felt a headache coming on.

"Roar----!"

The culprit that caused Yuhaka to fall directly onto the snow was the Tigrex, a flying wyvern monster that is one of the top predators in the food chain of the snow mountain region. After the Tigrex landed among the Popo group, it let out a huge roar, which startled the Popo group. The frightened Popo group, led by its leader, hurriedly ran away in the opposite direction of a Tigrex.

The Tigrex, however, did not rush to chase after the fleeing Popo. It suppressed its urge to rush up and tear the Popo apart. After all, it was a Tigrex that had lived for a long time. Compared to those young and hot-blooded Tigrex, it would choose the weakest Popo in the group as its hunting target, so as not to consume too much energy while hunting its prey.

In such a world, if hunting prey consumes too much energy and one encounters other predators, there won't be much energy left to defend one's prey.

"Roar----!"

Once it finds suitable prey, the Tigrex roars at its prey and charges towards its target with its dragon-like chariot, which seems to crush everything in its path.

"Youyou, you're angry! (?皿?)!"

Yuhaka poked its little head out from under the snow, looked at the Tigrex with an angry expression, and said fiercely.

Chapter 166 [A Suspicious Gaze]

"Roar----!"

The Tigrex roared as it chased after the Pokémon. For a seasoned Tigrex, its roar startled the Pokémon, causing them to panic. Once panicked, the Pokémon scattered in all directions, and the collisions and shoving separated the old, weak, and sick Pokémon, allowing the Tigrex to easily capture the weak ones.

Soon, amidst the roars and pursuit of the Tigrex, a rather thin Pidgey was pushed out of the pack. The Tigrex noticed the lone Pidgey and sped up to catch up. In no time, the Tigrex caught the thin Pidgey and bit off its cervical vertebrae.

However, just as the Tigrex was about to eat the Pidgey, Ehaka, who had transformed from underground into its third form, used its forelimbs, which had become similar in structure to those of the Brachydios, to deliver an uppercut to the Tigrex's chin, knocking it to the ground.

The Tigrex, sent flying, was seeing stars and couldn't get up for a moment. Yuhaka stepped forward and delivered a series of powerful punches to the Tigrex's abdomen, pinning it to the ground and beating it mercilessly. He also let the Tigrex experience the power of his explosive slime.

Yes, in addition to obtaining the Explosive Carapace of the Brachydios, Yuhaka also obtains the essence of the Explosive Slime.

Why are there two biological essences obtained?

The answer is simple: the Shattered Dragon and the Exploding Slime are two different species.

This also allowed Yuhaka to obtain the biological essence of the Explosive Carapace of the Brachydios and the Explosive Slime.

However, unlike Brachydios, which has a symbiotic relationship with Exploding Slime, Ehaka has the ability to reproduce Exploding Slime on its own. At least this way, it won't be like the last time it fought Brachydios, when the Exploding Slime on its body was completely wiped out by the disinfectant, leaving Brachydios with only melee combat ability.

"Roar----!"

In its third form, Yhaka is covered with sharp spines and a bluish-black obsidian-like carapace. The crimson slime mold attached to Yhaka's body multiplies rapidly under the influence of a certain hormone released by Yhaka, covering Yhaka's forelimbs.

Then he slammed his fist into Tigrex, and explosions rang out all over the Tigrex. When Yhaka calmed down, he was shocked to see the Tigrex's miserable state.

“Σ(?д?|||)??”

Startled, Yhwach instinctively jumped back. After all, the Tigrex's death was truly gruesome; its entire body was riddled with holes, almost entirely wrecked by Yhwach's blasting.

"Woooooooo..."

Ehaka looked a little disappointed. Originally, Ehaka wanted to try the taste of this Tigrex, but now that it was blown up into such a black and broken state, it looked like it was inedible.

"Awoo~ (?一﹏一`；)"

Yuhaka turned around and, with his backside facing the Tigrex's corpse, buried it in the snow like a dog digging in the sand.

Afterwards, Ehaka, having reverted to his original first form, took out his hybrid animal skin cloak from his dimensional portal, put it on, threw the corpse of the Pidgey that Tigrex had hunted into his dimensional portal, and then happily left.

However, just as Yuhaka was leaving, a small head with snow-white hair peeked out from the distant cliff and stared at Yuhaka's retreating figure with a puzzled look in its light blue eyes, which resembled those of a wild beast.

....................................

In an empty cave (originally inhabited by Tigrex), Yuhaka was using a small shovel to clean up the monster remains and excrement inside.

"Heave-ho OwO~"

After cleaning up the mess in the cave, Yuhaka put the cooking utensils from his dimensional portal into the cave and started preparing his food. After all, Yuhaka felt his stomach was rumbling after fighting Brachydios and Tigrex.

Yuhaka took out Popo's corpse from the dimensional cave and performed a series of dissections. First, Yuhaka peeled off Popo's inedible fur. Yuhaka had heard from Rorota and some merchants that Popo's fur was a good traded product that could be exchanged for some money. For Yuhaka, money could be exchanged for meat, which was very important to her.

However, the Popo fur in Eyhaka's hand is probably worthless because it was torn by the claws of the Tigrex. But this doesn't matter much to Eyhaka. Whether it's a lot of money or a little, as long as it can be exchanged for money, it's not a big deal.

Of course, don't think that just because Yuhaka has such ideas, you can try to fool her with a little money. Yuhaka also investigates the price of goods, which is something she learned from Croissant. If those unscrupulous merchants try to fool ghosts by burning newspapers on graves, they are very likely to become ghosts themselves.

After all, Yhaka isn't exactly a good person. If you help Yhaka, he'll develop a good impression of you. But if you provoke Yhaka... then Yhaka will prove what the "Zerus Survival Law" is all about.

The scene then returns to Yohaka's cooking session.

After Yuhaka cut off Bobo's tongue completely, he held it in his hand and weighed it a few times. It was quite heavy, and the whole tongue was much bigger than Yuhaka's head. Yuhaka really wanted to eat Bobo's tongue, but he knew that making Bobo's tongue dish required a long marinating time, so he decided not to make this delicacy for now.

"Hey hoo OwO~"

Yuhaka took out a large piece of herbivorous dragon rib meat from his dimensional cave, processed it, seasoned it, and then put it in the oven to heat. Every 30 minutes, he sprayed some of the herbivorous dragon rib meat with a liquid sprayer that was a 50/50 mixture of water and apple cider vinegar.

Once the meat was roasted until it released a rich, fragrant juice when pressed with a finger, Yuhaka took out the herbivorous dragon rib meat and placed it on a nearby table for cutting. After all, Yuhaka had put the rib meat, which consisted of about four connected ribs from the herbivorous dragon, into the oven for heating.

After cutting the herbivorous dragon rib meat into pieces resembling tomahawk steaks, Yuhaka placed them on a nearby grill for direct heat and added some spices from a mixed spice bottle purchased from Terra. The tomahawk steaks were then ready after being simmered in the heat of the grill.

Just as Yuhaka was stuffing a large piece of tomahawk steak into her mouth, she suddenly felt a gaze fixed on her... the tomahawk steak in her hand.

Chapter 167【(OO)(OwO)】

"O﹃O stare......"

“O_O?......…”

As Yuhaka slowly turned towards the cave entrance, he saw a little girl with snow-white twin ponytails staring at the Dragon Axe in Yuhaka's hand with her light blue eyes, drooling. Meanwhile, Zelus in the system space suddenly realized that the target of this void transfer phenomenon was not far from Yuhaka, so she immediately looked at the location of the target on the system panel.

Then Zelus saw a little girl with snow-white twin tails and wild, light blue eyes looking at the battle axe steak in Yuhaka's hand at the cave entrance. According to the description above, the little girl didn't seem too special, but the white horns on her head and behind her and the strange little tail made all the difference!

"Kanna?!?!"

Seeing the loli dragon girl at the cave entrance made Zelus cry out. Zelus felt a sudden unease as she looked at the little dragon girl with her unique hair color that gradually turned from white to purple. This phenomenon of void transfer often involves some insignificant creatures from other worlds. Zelus usually just lets Yuhaka kill these insignificant invading creatures. After all, they are creatures that no one cares about after they die. Even if Yuhaka uses them as food, Zelus wouldn't bother with them.

However, important characters like Kanna in the anime "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid" cannot be killed casually. After all, she is an important link in the chain of fate of "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid". If she dies in another world, that world may also be severely affected, and there may even be a serious event such as the destruction of a parallel world.

Of course, if these characters were killed in their own world, none of the things I just mentioned would happen...

But... Zelus scratched her long, emerald-green hair, looking at Kanna-chan who was standing at the cave entrance drooling, and said with a puzzled expression:

"Logically, such an important character should be closely watched by the world's consciousness, so how could they possibly appear in this game world?"

This is suspicious... Zelus also felt very puzzled...

"Kanna?"

Hearing Zelus's words, Yuhaka looked at Zelus and subconsciously called out Kanna's name. Kanna, who was at the cave entrance, was also taken aback when she heard Yuhaka's words and said:

"Huh??"

Kanna looked at Yuhaka with a puzzled expression, as if to say that Yuhaka knew her. Yuhaka tilted her little head and looked at Kanna outside, saying:

"An unfamiliar child..."

Then Yuhaka waved the herbivorous dragon battle axe dragon in his hand and said to Kanna:

"Would you like some...?"

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, Kanna swallowed hard and nodded vigorously, saying:

"Want to eat!"

[The little girl is eating]

"Ouch!"

Kanna opened her small mouth, bit into the tomahawk steak in her hand, chewed a few times, and the rich, fragrant meat juice that filled her mouth made Kanna slightly open her eyes and exclaim "Oh~".

"Delicious~~"

Hearing Kanna's words, Yuhaka looked at Kanna and nodded, saying:

"Herbivorous dragon, rib meat, is delicious when grilled!"

Meanwhile, Zelus, watching the two little girls, Kanna and Yuhaka, wagging their tails, couldn't help but say:

"They feel...like two sisters..."

Hearing Zelus's words, Yuhaka and Kanna both looked at the system panel floating in the air. Kanna looked at the system panel with a surprised expression and said:

"He...he spoke?!"

Yuhaka, who was standing nearby, nodded and said to Kanna:

"Yes, Banban can talk."
