Finally knowing the beast's usefulness, Yan Xiu understood everyone's reaction. From the conversation, Yan Xiu also heard that the beast was hard to find. Yan Xiu stared at the beast, a rarely found beast, he was curious how it would taste.
Then he saw Lu Rianli and some other villagers walk to the beast with a big butcher knife. They began butchering it, the beast was already devoid of blood, so it didn't take a long time before they finished butchering it. Big pieces of the meat were roasted on the bonfire with only a sprinkle of salt for taste.
The smell of the meat was unique, besides the heavy smell of meat, there was also the smell of medicinal herbs. While Yan Xiu and Bai Yuan were relishing the smell, Lu Hao came to their side.
"It smells good, isn't it?" (LH)
Yan Xiu nodded while swallowing his saliva.
"It's something that is rarely seen even in the city, the hunter team is really lucky." (LH)
"Is it really that rare?" (YX)
"Yeah, that's why we need to savor every bite." (LH)
"Un!" (YX)
Yan Xiu nodded while Bai Yuan was staring unblinkingly at the meat.
"By the way, where's aunty?" (YX)
"She is here. Look, she's over there." (LH)
Lu Hao pointed, Xiao ShanShan was sitting not far from the crowd. She noticed Yan Xiu looking at her, she smiled and waved. Yan Xiu waved back.
"Dad was afraid mom would bump with someone and get hurt, so he told her to not join the crowd and sit there." (LH)
While they talked, the meat was done and distributed to everyone. A villager came to them and gave the three of them each a plate of meat. After being grilled the gamey smell of the meat lessened, the medicinal smell also helped hide the gamey smell.

Yan Xiu looked intently at the browned meat, there was still a sizzling sound coming from the meat. He stabbed his fork in and it easily penetrated the soft meat, he took a little bite.
The taste was close to beef but had a deeper taste, the salt made the meat more tasteful. There was a slight bitter medicinal taste but it was invigorating. The more he chews the more the taste came out. When he swallowed the meat, his stomach felt warm and the warmth spread to his whole body. The meat did not only provide enjoyment for his taste bud, his body also enjoyed the meat.
While everyone enjoyed their meat in small bites, Bai Yuan finished his in two bites. Now he could only look enviously at other people's meat. Fortunately for him, the feast began right after everyone finished their meat. With Terkek meat as the appetizer, people began eating with more gusto.
Bai Yuan and Yan Xiu went around the long table, tasting every dish. First, they tasted the stir-fry Yan Xiu made. The bamboo shoot was crisp and the mushroom and tofu were soft, the two different textures blended together in the strong-tasting dish. After tasting the stir-fry, they made their way to taste all the dishes on the table.
Grilled, steak, soup, stew, fried, so on. Bai Yuan and Yan Xiu are to their heart's content. When they came back to their starting place, Yan Xiu saw many people eating his popsicles and they seemed to like it, especially the children.
"Hello~"
A girl's voice called from behind Yan Xiu. When he turned, he saw a group of three girls and one guy. They smiled at him.
One of the girls, a girl with short hair, went in front of Yan Xiu. She was the one who called Yan Xiu.

"Hello, I'm Han Zili. What's your name?" (HZ)
"Hello senior, I'm Yan Xiu and he is my contracted beast, Bai Yuan." (YX)
"Uho! (Hello!)" (BY)
Han Zili smiled brightly.
"So it is true! You really have contracted with a beast, amazing! Hey hey, can I touch Bai Yuan? Please!" (HZ)
"O-oh, of course." (YX)
Yan Xiu was a little overwhelmed by Han Zili.
"Thanks!" (HZ)
Han Zili began touching the fur on Bai Yuan's arm and she liked how soft Bai Yuan's fur was. The other went forward and introduced themselves. The one with long hair was called Tian Yu, the one with a ponytail was Wu Jier. The guy was Han Ao, he was Han Zili's older brother.
"Sorry about Zili, she was really excited and curious when she saw Bai Yuan. I hope she didn't bother you." (HA)
Said Han Ao apologetically, Yan Xiu answered while waving his hand.
"It's okay, senior. It didn't bother me or Xiao Yuan." (YX)
"Uho! (Right!)" (BY)
Bai Yuan was already used to people wanting to touch him. Han Ao smiled.
"Thank you and you don't have to be so formal with us, just relax." (HA)
"What he said and can I touch him too?" (WJ)
"Ah, me too. I want to touch Bai Yuan too." (TY)
With Yan Xiu and Bai Yuan's permission, the three girls have a good time touching Bai Yuan's silky fur.
"By the way, what's your role, Little Xiu?" (HA)
"I trained as a disruptor but I also learned the green water spell as well." (YX)
"Really? Then I'll teach you about the green water spell tomorrow." (HA)
Han Ao's eyes lit up when he heard Yan Xiu learning about the green water spell. As a healer, he was eager to teach Yan Xiu so there would be a new healer.
Han Ao thought Yan Xiu was still studying about the theory and Chen Hanchen had yet to tell him that Yan Xiu already learned the spell. He even reached the second level a few days ago!

Berserker- Crank Wars
Nearly 500 years have passed since the so-called apocalypse where souls dominated their control over the human vessels and grew into fierce monsters. A small frail kid saved humanity from getting wiped out of the face of the earth through his strangely powerful and unique techniques and taught them to the humans that followed him. He became a legend and humans developed special powers called cranks from his teachings. Humans couldn't procreate anymore. A very few thousands of last generation humans that remained or stayed alive by becaming crankers now constitutes the only humanity left on the planet. And they should continue to keep levelling up their cranks by slaying monsters and siphoning their souls to stay immortal and most of them tend to form teams to increase their odds. Everything was wrist-slittingly boring like that until one of those teams went ahead and mistakenly awakened the legend kid from his deep, and sound slumber. --------- One Chapter @Everyday -------------------- Unfortunately, I don't own the cover. I found it on Pinterest. And edited it a little.
