Chapter 286: My knife’s not even piercing through!

The people of the port city insisted on paying us back, but we firmly refused.

In the first place, we werent citizens of their kingdom. We were able to deflect Bazal the old mans questions earlier, but should the people ask for details, we would likely be exposed. I wanted us gone before that happens.

Its already dark. And its getting cold. So, we probably should return to the village for now.

Cant be helped

After handing over the krakens to the port city, we decided to get back home.

Are we going to fly back?

Nope, lets use teleportation.

Travelling via the park took quite a while, after all.

Hide the park somewhere, ok?

Ok!

I couldnt teleport a facility with me, so I left the park in the care of a body double.

Ah, but what about the shark?

I was only able to teleport with me living creatures and things they had on their person.

The frozen shark was dead, and it obviously wasnt something one would consider on their person.

I thought so, but I had to try it first to be sure. And so, I touched the body of the frozen shark and began teleporting.

In the next moment, I found myself and the shark back in the wasteland village.

It worked? Wait, you cant be alive, can you? In that state?

It probably was just in a state of suspended animation.

What tenacity.

What, what is that monstrosity!?

It looks like a fish, but isnt it too big!?

Where the hell did it come from!?

It turns out, a giant shark appearing out of nowhere was enough to greatly startle the villagers nearby.

Its alright, everyone, its just me.

Ahh, its the chief who brought it, I see.

just like always, the villagers were quick on accepting the situation.

More importantly, lets get to cooking and eating it!

What does it taste like, I wonder.

Cant wait!

A-ah, yeah.

In no time at all, the villages chef had gathered near the shark.

Of course, Coch-sanwho possessed the [Cooking] Giftcame too.

What, what is this thing!?

Its a shark. Its a bit larger than usual though.

A shark? Whats a shark? I have never cooked one beforeahh, but I have no doubt about it, this things a great ingredient.

Really?

Coch-sans assessments were always reliable.

Perhaps it was because he possessed the [Cooking] Gift, but he could always tell things like how fresh ingredients were and more. And now, it would seem he could appraise even ingredients he had never encountered before.

If Coch-san says so, then it must be true!

Im getting so excited to try it out!

Like that, the chefs excitedly leapt at the shark to start preparing it.

They were able to produce great food out of wyvern meat despite not having used it before, so I was quite confident they could pull it off this time as well.

I was thinking that when

Its scales are too tough! My knifes not even piercing through!

The chefs shouted such things when they tried to put in their knives on a part that has thawed already.

I dont understandthis is a dwarven-made knife that can slice even a wyverns scales, so why

They called it a knife, but it was nearly the size of a sword. Moreover, their knives had saw-like teeth in them.

I thought these knives would have been able to cut the sharks tough scales by chipping away at it, but it barely even made a scratch at the surface.

Even the brawnier chefs achieved the same results.

Coch-san had a glum look on his face when he groaned something.

Hmm, this bastards going to need a stronger set of arms, it looks like.

In that case, leave it to me.

The one to offer their help was none other than Goate-san who possessed the [Herculean Strength] Gift.

His Gift alone gave him incredible power, but his time in the training grounds was sure to further boost his strength.

In terms of raw strength, Goate-san was second to none.

And so, Goate-san was given a serrated knife and he began sawing off the giant sharks scales.

Oh, ohhh! Youre cutting through!

Amazing!

But its taking us all this effort just to cut through its scalescan we really cook this monstrosity?
