“Hi I’m Brian.”

  “Okay, so Brian. My name is Zayaan, but please call me Zay. The swordsman is Alex. Rico is our archer and Lucia is our witch.” Zayaan introduced his team to me.

  So the mage is a female and a wit particur. Wonder what the differeween a witd a normal mage is?

  “Are you going to introduce your summons to us or not?” (Zay)

  “I mean it’s not like they have names or something, but sure. This little guy is spear cretin and that is frenzied panda.” (Brian)

  “So you don’t name your summons?” (Zay)

  “Do summoners usually hem?” (Brian)

  “I actually don’t know. You are the first summoner I have really met. Moamers do heir beasts so I thought summoners would as well” (Zay)

  Yeah I guess that makes sense. I mean you are not going to call your pet dog or animal, right? Unless you are really fetful and I mean fetful to the point of naming your friend, Friend. I mean, who would ever do that. I actually might, calling Frenzied Panda a panda afterall. But e on, he is only going to be with me for two hours.

  “Hey Zay, I think this thing is what we came to hunt.” Rie up to us after iing the bison carcass. Did I steal their prey?

  “Did I steal your prey? I’m sorry.” I didn’t know their situatio and I want to be in good spirits with them. They are the first humans I met in this world. I don’t want to burn bridges immediately.

  “I think you might have, but it’s not a big problem. We were tasked with trag this thing down and killing it, after a mert spotted it. It’s strong enough to cause problems for a caravan after all. Don’t want to have a beast like that too close to town. As long as you e with us to report, our job will be plete no problem. I guess we won’t get the money for selling that thing though.” Zay gave me a good answer.

  At least I didn’t cause them to fail the quest or something. Or did he say it’s a job. How does this world's adventurers work? He did introduce them as an adventuring party. With a super funny name.

  “Mha.” I let out a small ugh and of course all of them catch it.

  “What’s funny?” Riediately asked me, seemingly knowing my answer already.

  “I just thought back about your party ’s kinda amazing…ly funny.” I answer and ugh a little more. I really ’t help it. ‘Prime Rib’. Who es up with that kinda name?

  “I’m gonna” As Rico steps forward to punch? me, Zay grabs him from behind and prevents him with a “No you won't.”

  While still holding Rico, Zay expins to me. “Our party gets a lot of funny looks and ughs for its name, but it's not like we chose the was kinda thrust onto us by our town. Then it just stuck. Rico still doesn’t like when people ugh at it.”

  “That’s uandable. I wouldn’t eople to ugh at a name I didn’t choose. Or even at a name I did choose. I’m sure you are a great party to have a name given to you by your town.” I try to smooth talk myself out of my selfmade hole. I really don’t want to get punched.

  “So you said that I should e with you to report about the bisht? I’m fih that, but what about its carcass?” I asked Zay

  “We should bring it with us, of course. You deal with it yourself or pay us a little and we will help.” Zay responds with an offer.

  “Yeah, help would be nice. we take it to town in that state or do we have to process it down more? I don’t know if I have the skills to do anything to a bison. I have only ever butcher a deer. And a few chis.”

  “Deer? Where are you from?” Zay became suspicious of me after I told him about my hunting history.

  “Not here.” I give a vague answer.

  “Your clothing gave that part away already.” (Zay)

  My clothes. Yeah, I guess I’m wearing a hoodie and jeans. Not really your normal adventuring gear. It's actually weird that my hoodie looks pristine, even after making my way through both the dungeon and the forest. There isn’t even any blood on my shoes. How is that possible? I walked through a sea of corpses in the dungeon.

  “I guess it is kinda unique. So how much do you want for the help with the bison and dires to the town. Will half of the bison's sale price be enough?” I asked Zay.

  I gave him what I think will be a high offer as a butter up bonus fhing at their party. I also don’t think that Frenzied Panda is going to have enough time to make it to town so paying a little extra to have help moving it should be worth it.

  “That’s fi’s more than I would have asked for, I mean you have a big beast that could carry it all the way to town.” (Zay)

  “It’s actually for a few reasons. One, I don’t think Frenzied panda is going to make it all the way to town. Two, it’s kinda an apology fhing at your party name. And three, with a name like ‘Prime Rib’, I’m sure your party is great at processi. You don’t get a name like that from nothing.” I have to hold back my ugh from ing out after saying that party name again.

  “Well you are right about that. Let’s get things done. I want to be home by dinner.” Zay finally let go of Rico, who had calmed down and began issuing orders to his team. “Lua, drain its blood.”

  As the witch Lucia, or Lua as Zay called her, approached the bison carcass, she took out a small metal fsk. Wonder what that is for? She took a quick look at the bison's back where cretin's spear was still stud said.

  “Zay, bad peed a better cut.” (Lucia)

  “Sure. Rico do it.” (Zay)

  “Fine.” Rico grumbled. I guess he is still mad at me. I really hoped he would stop after he heard the ave them.

  Rico walked up to the carcass and pulled out a rge k might eveter to call it a short sword. With it he sliced the neck of the bison open and blood gushed out.

  Reag to the blood, Lua quickly muttered something I guess would be a spell t before saying in a firm voice.

  “Blood trol.”

  The blood ing from the bison's neck slithered in the air like a snake aered Lua’s metal fsk. How a small fsk hold so much blood? It has to be some kind of magic fsk. What do they evehe blood for anyway to have a high css magic item like that for blood. Or maybe ste items like that are on? I mean they came here to hunt a bison and didn’t bring a carriage or a cart with them. They might just have a magic bag.

  As I take another look at their party, the only ones carrying a bag are the knight Alex and archer Rico. Alex has a medium sized backpad Rico has a small one. I guess you ’t have oe if you also have a quiver on your back.

  “Done.” With a one word answer, Lucia informed us that the blood draining was plete.

  “Good, Alex, take it into y. It should fit right.” Zay is once again on top of things with his orders. I guess it really is a magic bag.

  “Yeah it will fit. It's a bit rger than expected but I made room before we left town.” (Alex)

  As Alex walked up to the corpse, I remembered that Spear cretin’s spear was still stuck to the back of the bison.

  “Hey, you remove the spear from its back first. This little guy wants it back.” I interrupt Alex before he put the bison away.

  “Sure.” He answers while going around the bison. With one hand he pulls the spear out of the bison. It does have reverse spikes on it to make it rip on the way out, but he makes pulling it out look easy.

  “Here you go little guy.” (Alex)

  He hands the spear bay cretin and my little cretin is happy to have its on back. I guess he really didn’t feel well without it.

  Alex goes back to the bison's corpse and takes his backpack. With a small light the bison’s corpse ehe bag. It kinda looks like when a pokeball catches a pokemon. Magic bags work in mysterious ways.

  “Okay team. Mission plete. Let’s return to town.” Zay gave the move out order to his team.

  I hop on the back of Frenzied Panda and ride on him. He had recovered his bamboo stid retur to the card while the blood draining was happening. I think it was good that Lua didn’t notice it happening, being focused on the blood draining. I don’t think I would be able to give good ao her on how these cards work. I mean, I want to know as well. I’m not the expert you ask this stuff from.
