Chapter 20 - 20: Found Mushroom.

Now that there are two more members in the team, Robert and the other set off to the place where the pig lives.

It's afternoon, He wanted to reach White Fang home before night.

So they only have a few hours to collect the resources.

Robert looked around when he walked, He wanted to find some plants or vegetables for cooking.

They are now inside a dense forest, there is a good chance that he could find something.

Others saw that Robert kept looking under the tree or other places and we're confused.

"Robert, What are you doing?" White Fang asked and the other two also looked at him curiously.

"As I said before setting off, I am looking to find somethings for cooking, In a forest like this there is a great chance to find wild vegetables or other spices for cooking." Robert looked around and answer White Fang.

White Fang and others looked at each other with confusion, Find something edible here?

Robert around and saw that the snow has already been melted in this forest, The weather here is weird too.

If he goes according to the logic of the previous world, After the winter it should be spring season.

But he knew the logic itself is bullshit, here Winter only lasted for one day.

But if it's spring then there should be a lot of vegetation in the forest. He just needs to find them.

Just as he was looking around he found something under the tree in front of him.

It's mushroom! As for what types of mushroom, it is he has to look at it for identification, He said toward the mushroom and looked at its appearance closely, "It's Oyster Mushroom!"

The moment he looked at the mushroom, The name came to his mind.

Oyster Mushroom is a common edible known for its oyster-shaped cap. One of the first things you should look for when trying to identify this mushroom is the presence of decurrent gills.

There were recurrent gills present in this mushroom, Robert was delighted after seeing this.

White Fang and others arrived near Robert and saw him picking weird looking plants.

"Robert... what is this?" Slither asked with confusion, it's not only him who was confused, Snowball and White Fang were confused too.

"This is a mushroom you can eat it, This mushroom is called as Oyster mushroom, it's Delicate and tender, it can be cooked quickly and are perfect for quick stir-fries dishes and to make a simple soup. In short, it's very delicious." Robert explained about the mushroom but saw that they were still confused, So he just concluded that they are very delicious.

Three of their eyes brightened after they heard Robert, As long as it's delicious it's fine with them.

White Fang gulped after she finished listening to Robert, She was impatient to try it, "Robert let's cook it now!"

Robert rolled his eyes and said, "We have other things to do now, Let's finish it and we will eat food at night!"

Robert didn't give her a chance to speak and moved forward leaving White Fang who was standing there stomping her feet in annoyance.

Slither felt that his knowledge is refreshed, He thought that White Fang is the boss of the group but now it's doesn't seem like it.

It's Robert whose decision is final, Just now he saw this. He wanted to tell this information to Snowball but when he looked around he saw that Snowball has disappeared.

Just as he wanted to tell White Fang about this he heard a snowball voice, "Big Brother Robert can we eat this too?"

When he looked in the direction of the voice, He saw that Snowball was sitting under a tree waving his hands toward Robert.

Robert was startled after hearing the call, He looked at the snowball and walked toward him at a fast pace.

When he arrive dear Snowball he a mushroom that made him exclaim in surprise, "Porcini Mushrooms!"

"You did a good job Little snow, It's a great material for cooking it's called porcini mushroom, It has a meaty texture and has intense mushroom flavour, It tastes great after grilling it boiling!" Robert picked up the mushroom and stored it inside the leather bag made from the python skin before. Inside there are two types of mushrooms now.

He petted Snowball head and praised him for being so observant, And Snowball showed a happy expression on his face and enjoyed Roberts petting.

He looked at Slither with expectation, He wants praise from Slither too.

Slither arrived near Snowball and petted his head with his tail, Just like Robert did and said, "Good job snowy."

White Fang felt annoyed after seeing this scene, So she started to look around to find something so that she would be praised too.

She looked around the forest and shouted at Robert, "Robert can this be eaten too?"

Robert heard White Fang and looked in her direction and when he saw the place where is pointing to he was speechless, "it's just some wild weed, It cannot be eaten!"

"What about this?"

"It's just some grass!" Robert had a black line on his forehead.

"What about this?" Robert heard White Fangs call again and looked in her location.

"It's Morel Mushrooms! Little Fang you did a good job!" Robert arrived near White fang and picked up the mushrooms and patted her head and didn't forget to praise her. Slither imitated Robert and patted her head too.

White Fang looked at snowball triumphantly, As if saying that she won the competition.

Snowball saw her look and saw her being praised by Slither and Robert, So she started to put more effort into the finding.

White Fang saw snowball looking around to find something and felt anxious, So she started to put more effort too.

"Big Brother Robert! Can this be eaten too?" 

"Robert, Can this be eaten too?"

"Big Brother Robert come here, I found something similar…"

"Robert come here…"

….

Robert and Slither looked at White Fang and Snowball who were competing with each other for praise.

"Your plan worked well, They are putting a lot of effort into this!" Slither said to Robert.

"Without your cooperation, I would not have accomplished this plan. You did a good job."

"I just followed your plan, It's nothing great!" 

"Don't be modest, You did a good job but from next time say a few more words of encouragement when praising White Fang, Tell her something like, You are the best or something then it will be more effective on her."

"Hmm, Okay, I will do that. You can rub snowball ears while praising it's very effective!"

"That's great I will do that next time!" 

Both Robert and Slither looked at each other with a smile on their face.

If someone heard their conversation, They would feel that they are discussing how to exploit two children and make them work even harder without giving them a salary.
