Chapter 145 - Taming was harder than I thought

Taming was harder than I thought

‘Here comes a monster!’

‘...I guess I’ll try to tame it then...’

Even though it wasn’t a flying monster, I could still give it a try.

It came all the way out here to greet us, after all.

‘All right, I’m going to stop then!’

The Proud Wolf said as he stopped immediately.

The thing in front of us...was a wolf monster that was quite a bit larger than the Proud Wolf.

“GRRRRRRR...”

The monster gave a low roar and quietly approached us.

...Its fur looked familiar.

If I wasn’t wrong, the fur for the Eagle Wolf had the same pattern.

And the size seemed to be about the same as well.

It didn’t look to be as fast as the Proud Wolf... But a monster of this size was bound to be strong.

As I considered this, I activated ‘Monster Mutual Understanding.’

And then...I could hear the Eagle Wolf’s voice.

‘Kill! Meat! Eat!’

‘Hey, want to be friends?’

‘Meat! Human! Meat!’

Hmmm...this was not promising.

I don’t know, it seemed like its intelligence was far lower than that of the Proud Wolf.

....But then again, I had captured the Proud Wolf with magic before taming him.

So maybe this monster would also regain his senses if it was captured.

As I was thinking this, the monster jumped at me.

“GRRR!”

‘Bind.’

I activated binding magic as the Eagle Wolf flew towards us.

It could not dodge it, and it fell right into the magic net.

Now, maybe it would calm down.

‘Meat! Kill! Meat! Eat!’

...Hmm. Maybe it was no use after all.

Perhaps monsters that you could properly communicate with and tame were rare.

‘Kill! Kill!’

The Eagle Wolf seemed to not understand the situation it was in. It continued to try and bite us through the net.

‘Meat!’

Yes. It was no use.

I couldn’t tame this one.

‘Hmm. There aren’t any others...’

‘None!’

‘No one comes out!’

‘But, we’re here!’

An hour had now passed since we started looking for a friend.

During that hour, we got 50 new monsters.

But...among those 50...well, 50 were slimes...

So we had more mouths to feed but had not tamed a single monster to carry the food.

....Well, as I was killing monsters I couldn’t tame, we were gathering more meat, at least.

‘We’ll look for just a little while longer. Then we’ll give up for the day.’

It was taking too long, and the sun would start setting soon.

And I felt that it would be too dangerous to search for monsters in the dark.

However... This Cockatrice must be incredibly rare.

I was searching through the place with all of these slimes and had yet to find one.

‘Do you have any useful scouting abilities?’

‘I don’t!’

‘Me, neither!’

I had thought that they might have something up their sleeve, but apparently not.

Well, they would have already used it if they had something.

‘...Hmm, this is hard.’

Flying and scouting.

Things I couldn’t do with magic.

The books I had used to learn had countless spells in them...

But not these two.

In that case, I would have to use something else instead...

As I was thinking this, I remembered something that the guild receptionist had said.

This Cockatrice monster used poison.

And I could use poison detection magic.

Perhaps I could use it to find the Cockatrice.
