Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

Page 96

It looked like it had been knocked unconscious; one of the rabbit's hind legs was still trembling unconsciously, occasionally kicking twice.

Miss Rin walked over and easily caught her prey.

With a "ha," he picked up the rabbit with its beautiful red fur, held it in his arms, and looked it over with a joyful smile like a father.

"so cute."

Miss Rin let out a click of her tongue in admiration, which drew a rebuttal from Lily.

"What's so cute about it?"

Pendragon and Lily walked up to Rin. Despite their cold expressions, the two identical young ladies made the same move, both reaching into Rin's arms to stroke the rabbit's soft, smooth fur.

"Look at its red fur, so glossy and beautiful, isn't it better than..."

"—Click."

The crisp, clean sound was the noise of a small animal's spine breaking!

"Let's bake it."

Miss Rin seemed to have seen enough. Caught completely off guard by Pendragon and the other two, she did something completely out of the ordinary, grabbing the rabbit's head and turning it around.

Clean and swift, he twisted the rabbit's neck as easily as wringing out a towel.

"..."

Lily's expression twitched, and she was stunned for a while before she could process Rin's sudden change of heart.

"嘤嘤嘤?"

Pendragon acted as a whiny whiner with a blank expression, but of course, Rin-sama's suggestion was 100% in favor.

"Then let's go."

Rin grabbed the rabbit by both ears with one hand and lifted the victim up like a red pumpkin.

"It's not a good idea to have a barbecue in the woods, in the middle of the road."

P.S.: I'm splitting this into two days to write this, and my liver is starting to ache. I was woken up very early this morning by the noise of the construction drilling downstairs!

Chapter 162 Bullying the Honest Man

Chapter 162

Pendragon disappeared into the woods by the roadside, and the other two followed.

Mountain roads are much more difficult to traverse than flat, wide roads. Even with Pendragon leading the way, those following behind still quickly exhaust themselves.

Without intending to go too deep, Pendragon cleared a space in a sparsely wooded area as a barbecue spot.

Firewood was readily available; Pendragon's telekinesis had destroyed several small trees, and Lily only needed to collect the dried-out pieces and pile them together.

Lady Rin was in charge of processing the prey, while Pendragon used the available materials to build a barbecue grill.

"Do you want skewers or a grill rack?"

Pendragon sat on a wooden stake and looked at Rin, who was helping the rabbit undress, and asked.

"Grilling net".

Miss Rin wiped the still-warm blood from her hands and smiled at Pendragon.

"Oh."

Pendragon used branches and bark to build a grill on the leaf-strewn soil, and also made a few long skewers.

"I didn't bring a knife, so I can't split this firewood."

Lily found a thick piece of dead wood from somewhere and threw it directly at Pendragon, seemingly wanting her to demonstrate her invisible sword technique of chopping wood in mid-air.

Unfortunately, Pendragon remained unmoved. With a powerful flick of his silver-gray ahoge, like a slashing sword, an invisible sword aura pierced through the air and instantly shattered the wooden stake into pieces.

"Eh?!"

Lily's golden ahoge (cowlick) seemed to straighten up as if awakened by this stimulation.

This is fun!

When Rin returned with the clean and tidy rabbit and the herbs she had picked by the stream, she saw this scene—

Lily kept carrying pieces of wood and placing them on Saber's head, her movements as practiced as a worker on an assembly line. With a series of crisp "snap-snap" sounds, the wood was as if it had been split open by a saw, neatly arranged into four pieces on one side.

Are we going to have a bonfire party?

Let alone roasting a rabbit, there are two huge piles of firewood, enough to roast a whole cow! It would probably burn this whole forest down.

"No, I just find it particularly interesting."

To be honest, Lily had just run out of wood to cut, so she picked up a few pieces of wood that Ahoge had chopped and put them on the grill that Pendragon had built.

"Please also help with ignition."

Lily looked at Pendragon with her jewel-like eyes, wondering if they even knew the primitive methods of starting fire.

"..."

Pendragon expressionlessly tossed a bolt of Force lightning into the woodpile, instantly igniting the already dry wood.

"Let it burn for a while."

Miss Rin glanced at their work, marinated the rabbit with salt she carried with her, and then roasted it with lightning-struck wood after the firewood had burned.

"Here you go, take a seat."

Seeing Rin standing there waiting for the firewood to burn to ashes, Pendragon wisely made room for her, giving up the wooden stump she was sitting on, which was conveniently located right next to the grill.

"Thank you, but what about you?"

After sitting down, Miss Rin looked at Pendragon, where there was only a thick wooden stake that could serve as a stool for the time being.

"It's okay, I can just sit on the ground."

Pendragon sat cross-legged in the pile of dead leaves, took out a magic book and opened it.

"My clothes will only get torn, not dirty."

"What a convenient ability!"

Pendragon's explanation drew stares from the two young women who were looking at the dog.

Lily turned her head to look at her skirt. Half of her fair and beautiful thighs were still uncovered, and it would definitely be uncomfortable to sit directly on the ground.

"Saber, conjure up a blanket so we can all sit together."

Lily knelt down beside Pendragon and offered this suggestion.

"No, Lily, why don't you sit on my lap?"

Pendragon didn't even look at it, and patted the thigh where he hadn't put the book.

Perhaps Pendragon's legs should be measured in a different way, perhaps as a single leg rather than a thigh, especially considering the tailored suit he wore.

She's so slender it's almost unfair.

Even though Lily weighs less than 100 pounds and has a very slender figure, she still didn't dare to sit on it, feeling like it would break under her weight.

“Standing is also part of the training in swordsmanship, so I’ll continue chopping wood.”

Lily noticed that Miss Rin was looking this way, and immediately fled, making up an excuse to gather firewood.

"Lily-chan's reaction is still so interesting."

Miss Rin smoothed her sideburns with her hand, a charmingly mischievous smile on her face.

"You only know how to bully honest people..."

Pendragon rolled his eyes at her, his fingers tracing the magical pages of the book, his tone growing increasingly excited.

"Take me along for something this fun!"

The silver-gray tuft of hair on its head stood up in the wind, looking stiff from chopping so many logs.

Once the wood had burned sufficiently, Rin pushed the pile of firewood over, spread it out under the grill, and placed the spiced rabbits on it to roast over the fire.

"This rabbit is fat enough that you don't need to brush it with oil. Just brush it with water every now and then."

In Rin's hand was a brush made of wild onions.

Smelling the smoky aroma of oil dripping into the charcoal fire, Pendragon leisurely reads his book, feeling incredibly close to nature.

Miss Rin carefully tended to the roasted rabbit, occasionally brushing both sides with wild scallions dipped in water to keep the meat moist.

As time goes by, the surface of the roasted rabbit gradually turns golden brown, and glistening oil seeps out from the meat, gathering into drops that fall into the fire, making an enticing sizzling sound.

"smell good!"

This time, it wasn't Pendragon who said those words, but Lily, who was squatting to the side, who suddenly said them.

"This fragrance is truly unique."

Miss Rin sniffed cutely and said, "It's probably a specialty of this world."

The spices tasted the same and could be clearly distinguished, but the rabbit became increasingly fragrant after it rendered its fat, causing them to swallow their saliva more frequently!

"It smells so good, it makes me hungry!"

Pendragon closed the book, his gaze immediately drawn to the rabbit.

The golden-brown crust, glistening with oil, makes this dish absolutely irresistible!

You're always hungry.

Rin rolled her eyes at her, but Pendragon wasn't wrong this time; even she herself felt a little hungry from the smell.

"All right."

I poked the thickest part of the roasted rabbit's hind leg with a sharpened wooden skewer to make sure it was cooked through, and then removed it from the charcoal fire.

"I come!"

Pendragon, worried that Rin would get burned, used his telekinesis to grab the roasted rabbit and then spread his fingers.

P.S.: Seriously, even if I only write a thousand words today, it's still around this time. Emmmmm, I got scratched while giving my cat a bath and bled a lot.

Chapter 163 Hot Spring Bath

Chapter 163

The roasted rabbit was torn into several pieces in an instant, as if it had been torn apart by five horses, releasing an even more enticing aroma of meat.

“It smells so good!”

The three of them each took a piece of rabbit meat, blew on it slightly, and then quickly put it in their mouths.

These freshly roasted rabbit pieces are practically magical; they truly melt in your mouth!

The texture is like jelly, and when you roll it on your tongue, it turns into a rich broth. The aroma travels from your throat to your stomach, and it is not only delicious but also has a long-lasting aftertaste.

Although there was no chewing of the meat in their mouths, they could still feel the immense satisfaction of eating large chunks of meat.

"As expected of Tohsaka, it's so delicious!"

Lily looked at Rin with her bright green eyes, praising her cooking skills with a smile. Even the blower was attracted by the aroma, meowing and sniffing the smell. Perhaps it really couldn't get used to the food here, it was just smelling it.

The rabbit, which wasn't very big, was quickly devoured by the beautiful and well-proportioned young ladies who had such voracious appetites.

Pendragon, with his better teeth, chopped up the bones and swallowed them whole. Seeing how much Pendragon loved it, Lady Rin had originally planned to give up her share.

After all, no matter how rare the food is, nothing is more important than your lover's happiness.

"You should eat it; it'll do you good for you."

Like the other worlds Pendragon experienced, apart from Marvel, they all differed from the original stories she knew.

The modifications to this world are reflected in the ingredients and special effects. We've already seen the glowing effects before, but this fiery red rabbit is not only incredibly delicious, it can also enhance human functions.

Compared to Pendragon's powerful physical body, this improvement was not obvious. She only felt a warm current spreading from her stomach to her whole body, like eating a hot pot. Her powerful mental strength allowed her to feel that her physical functions had been enhanced by a fraction of a percent.

Rin and Lily's bodies are relatively weaker, so their improvement should be more noticeable, by several percent.

However, they probably wouldn't feel it. The "significant improvement" is only relative. At most, they might feel better after eating, or they might not feel anything at all.

"Let's go find some other special ingredients."
