“When I first learned that ancient dragons existed, I had vaguely visualized them as being the sort of incredible, majestic creatures you heard about in legends and folklore. Then I actually met one and he turned out to be the sort of person that would throw a huge, screaming fit over not getting to join in a meal, then grind his teeth so hard I could hear them when he didn’t get his way. I just felt so terribly disillusioned. Of course, I also felt a little sorry for him. Having to smell the garlic steaks I was cooking but not getting to eat”

“When I had first arrived in this world, I’d been super anxious about my financial future, but ever since I met Fel and the others, I’d been totally economically stable. ‘Stable’ would actually be selling it short—thanks to my familiars’ random acts of chaos and violence, I’d actually been accumulating money. Those three carnivores kept bringing in carcass after carcass for me to cook for them, and all the bits that weren’t edible always ended up getting sold off for an incredible sum of money.”

“Oh? You would dare bare your blades before us?” “Are you sure you’ve thought this through?” Fel and Gon stepped forward, speaking out loud, and together with Dora-chan and Sui, they loomed over the Bishop and his minions and bodyguards. Said bodyguards instantly dropped their weapons and fell over on their backsides, while the minions dropped to the ground and started crawling for safety, shrieking with terror.”

“Fel was keeping a straight face, as always, but his tail was wagging up a storm. Dora-chan pumped a tiny fist and shouted 《All right!》 while Sui squealed with glee and started bouncing all over the place.”

“Without even minding that, Mukohda just told Fel, who had a voracious appetite, “If you want meat, hunt it yourself.” When we heard that, we could only stare open-mouthed and dumbfounded. I give my respect to Mukohda, who could tell a Fenrir, a legendary beast, to go get his own food. I thought, it might not just be that he was lured in by food, but that, inexplicably, he might have perceived that quality in Mukohda already and formed a contract for that reason. Fel would probably never form a contract with those that would only think to use him, like nobles or countries. It didn’t seem like Mukohda intended to use Fel’s power one bit. Rather, there probably wasn’t even a temptation to use his power.”

“《Sui, what do you think? Do you not want to fight and shoot your Acid Bullet?》 Sui poked out from my bag in response to Fel’s telepathy. 《Are we gonna fight? Sui wants to shoot a lot, like pew pew!》”

“Geez, I wonder if this is all gonna be okay? Well, for now I guess I’ll just go and retrieve the meat. I can stop them if they go too far.” ............... ............ ...... “I was an idiot for thinking I could stop them...” I was bent over in frustration, with countless chunks of dungeon beef littering the grasslands around me. Even though I shouted, “We’ve got enough!” to my familiars, none of them listened. They were all too preoccupied with hunting and weren’t even paying any attention to me. In the end, they only stopped when they’d killed every single dungeon cow on the entire floor.”

“I couldn’t help but think, this guy, rather than a legendary beast, he’s just a gluttonous snackhound.”

“Hey, Feodora,” I said as I held out a cockatrice teriyaki bowl. Her gaze locked onto it in an instant, and when I moved it from side to side, her head swiveled to track its motion. Heh heh! Okay, this is kinda fun, I thought as I moved the bowl all over the place and watched Feodora pivot her head in every direction to match. Wait, whoops! What am I even doing right now?”

“【Vampire Knife】 A knife made from an alloy of magic iron and a vampire’s bone. It thirsts for blood, and will endlessly absorb it.
“Phhbbbhht!......” W-What a violent knife! It hungers for blood...... “Hmm, a knife that endlessly absorbs blood? Would it not be useful for draining blood from meat?”
