Chapter 159

But before they could do anything like that, they first needed to go out and get something extremely important. They needed meat and food.

The forest on the first floor was said to be dangerous for newcomers. A forest that would make them pee their pants and cry out in terror like little girls if they weren’t careful! It was cruel and unforgiving! It was... Food.

Booommmmm!!!!

That was an explosion that rang through the entire forest some distance away from the settlements on the first floor. It was so strong that it made birds fly away in every direction and many people that were lurking around the outside of the forest looked up to see a large cloud of smoke rising on the horizon.

Back in the inn, Rin felt the explosion and couldn’t help the exasperated expression that came onto her face. She, Kim, and Rina were getting everything ready in what would be their new restaurant while Han took Lily and Yue out to hunt for something to eat. She already knew that Han was strong, but that explosion right now, won’t it just destroy this entire floor?

“Was that an earthquake!?”

Miss Kim asked this from her place under a table and Rin shook her head while telling her to come out from there.

“Yes. It’s Han. He’s probably playing around with some skills”

Playing around? Miss Kim was tempted to ask what it would be like if Han actually got serious but she didn’t think it would be good for her mental health! She already knew Han was strong, but what the hell was that!?

.....

Han hummed while holding his chin and looking down at what was supposed to be their dinner. He might have gone a little overboard.

“Yes, but if she just leaves us alone, then I don’t think there’ll be any trouble. It’s not really worth it to start chasing her down”

The old man nodded and then turned to leave while reminding Han about the advice he gave him.

Han watched the man wave at them as he walked away. He had noticed the woman following him for a while now, but he never bothered to chase her down because he could tell she wasn’t even a threat at all. she was probably just trying to find out more about him. It wasn’t worth the trouble to get rid of her so he decided she could do whatever she wanted.

After meeting the old man, Han decided that he would take some of the animals they saw alive and see if what the man said was true or not. When he got back to the inn, the three girls had already set up most of what they needed. Over the past few days, they managed to get some wooden chairs and tables and arranged them all around the main floor of the inn. There was a large counter to one side where people could sit and drink and there was even a large wine case behind it. Han really put that blood money to good use.

He took the animals to the backroom after giving Rina and Rin a kiss each for a work well done. Once he got to the back, he then activated his skill and got down to business.

[Butcher] has been activated.

This skill was one he got from Tully earlier. Han was sure that Tully used it many times to tear up humans so they could get rid of the body parts easily, but now, Han was the one using it. And if it was a masterful skill in Tully’s hand, it was godlike for Han.

The butcher skill was over 1500 points. It was meant to be a simple skill. Cut up meat, shave meat, throw the meat in the fridge and make sure meat doesn’t get ruined. But with a proficiency that high, Han made the meat into something otherworldly. Tenderizing, skewering, marinating. Rubbing, skinning, salting, curing. Han minced, chopped and he even took it as far as using his [Ultimate Pyromania] to carry out heat treatment for some particularly troublesome ox meat.

The smell that the butchering was creating wafted through the entire building and all the girls gathered at the door to watch Han taking care of it. It was like watching a master at work. It just looked so effortless!

“Daddy is awesome! And I’m so hungry!”

Rina giggled as she saw Yue pout. She knew her brother gained a lot of different powers. But she had no idea that his powers would allow him to do things like this! If he wasn’t going to be busy for a long time after this, then she would have told him to become the head chef for the restaurant! It was too bad that he already told them he would be very busy though.

Ka-cha!

That was the sound of the inn door opening and somebody walked in looking wide-eyed. All the girls quickly moved away from the back door and looked at the man that seemed like he hadn’t eaten in days.

“W-What is that smell? I think my stomach going to eat itself if I don’t eat that meat”
