The young dragon tries to conquer the world

　In the intervals between simmering in the casserole and stewing in the hot pot, Melalu added handfuls of chili peppers and baiyang grass to the wok, stirring it up and down.

　After frying, the color in the pan immediately turned bright red, but the color made Lanmei's tongue feel a little sore.

　The final dish, spicy twice-cooked iced wolf meat, is finished by sprinkling some grass jelly, mint, scallions, and ghost onions on top.

　The young girl and Lan Mei sat around the hot pot, while the Melalus carried dishes one by one on a huge tray on their heads.

　The ice wolf dragon meat, simmered until tender, absorbed the broth, its rich, savory flavor making the young girl's mouth water. Cool droplets of water dripped from the outside of the ice glass. The young girl was the first to fork up a large piece of ice wolf dragon meat and put it in her mouth. Because Melalu had cleaned it several times beforehand, even though the ice wolf dragon's neck had been bitten off by the World Lord and the blood hadn't been properly drained, the fishy smell of the ice wolf dragon meat had been removed thanks to the efforts of Melalu and the others. Moreover, after Melalu's careful preparation, it had a special fragrance that made the young girl unable to stop eating.

　"Crunch crunch~" The little girl swallowed the bones as well. When she aimed at the stir-fried ice wolf dragon meat, even though her mouth was stained red with chili, she still put handfuls of it into her mouth. Lanmei wasn't very interested in this dish. The casserole-braised ice wolf dragon meat and the ice wolf dragon hot pot suited her taste better. The salty and fragrant taste also made Lanmei ask for a bowl of white rice for the first time ever.

　The Melalurus were satisfied with just a few large chunks of Ice Wolf Dragon meat, a delicacy they had never dared to dream of or even dream of before. As for fried fish, that was nothing.

　"Pfft~" The little girl held a glass thicker than her arm and drank the ice-cold dragon whiskey in one gulp. After putting down the glass, she let out a satisfied sound, and her slender platinum tail swayed contentedly on the ground.

　"Delicious! I want to eat this again next time!"

　The Melalus exchanged glances and then happily hugged each other. The Melalus who had knocked over the condiment bowl even shed tears of excitement. This scene puzzled Flame, who had just returned from the hunt, but she didn't think much of it. After submitting her mission report at the gathering place, she met up with Fiorena. They agreed that Fiorena would show Flame around Elgard.

　Everything here is new to Lieyan: the processing merchant Milena, the general store owner Oboro, the wind who couldn't become a Palico hunter but chose to help Palicoes find jobs, and the red bean who runs a tea shop here.

　In the evening, after finishing the tour, Lieyan wanted to invite Fiolena to dinner, but Rodina came over unexpectedly. Looking at Rodina, who was giving a proper knightly salute, Lieyan asked in confusion, "Is there something urgent, Miss Rodina? Has a monster attack occurred?" Lieyan also noticed that Fiolena looked serious, which made him start to have some wild thoughts.

　"Hmph, it's nothing serious, it has nothing to do with monsters." Hearing Rodna's words, Fiore's expression changed from serious to that of someone welcoming the end of the world.

　"I see. In that case, thank you very much, Miss Fiorena, for today's events."

　"I'll be returning to Flamefire Village in a few days. If you need me to pass on any messages, please let me know. Now, sister, may I borrow some time when it's just the two of us alone?"

　"No, no problem."

　After ordering several servings of rabbit dumplings at the teahouse, Flame originally planned to eat them on the high platform of the Knights' Command Post. Ni Tai told her that it was the best place to enjoy the view. However, the one who came out of the teahouse to order food was not the Palico Red Bean, but the Palico Kaze.

　"Hey, Red Bean isn't here."

　"Meow, meow, meow, meow meow meow meow." Today I'm here to help Boss Red Bean. Red Bean went to buy the ingredients for the rabbit dumplings. Thanks to Red Bean's strict requirements for the raw materials, the rabbit dumplings here are really delicious. By the way, do you want a few servings?

　"Alright then, please give me ten servings of rabbit dumplings and tea. I guess I'll add ten more."

　Under the moonlight, Flame sat on the high platform, sipping tea and eating sweet rabbit dumplings. Flame was pondering what lay beneath the giant hole when suddenly a thought struck him. Judging from Rodna and Fiorena's reactions, Flame wondered if what they were discussing might be a bit too extreme.

　PS: First update!

　PS2: Research has found that running does not make calves thicker, and 99% of marathon runners have very slender calves.

　PS3: Oh right, let me report on the BA FES: I got Hoshino from the Rising Battle event at level 80, Kuroko from level 190, and only UI from NEW, along with Karin and the pink-haired girl from the Home Club~ A total of...

　Getting 13 gold coins is pretty normal, I guess.

　Volume 1: Chapter 348 - The Mystery of the Blue Bear Beast's Sumo

　For example, things like in-depth investigations or secret research. After all, Fiona's investigation team hadn't found any useful clues yet, and Rodna, in her anxiety, might have found some information, which is why she secretly discussed it with Fiona.

　They might stay for a long time, so I'll give them these bunny dumplings. Of course, this isn't to satisfy my curiosity, it's just out of concern.

　Holding the desserts and tea she had just bought, Flame slowly walked towards Fiora's residence. Fiora lived with the hunters; to be precise, the inn itself was a facility providing housing for the residents of Elgard. Just as Flame was about to knock on the door, she suddenly noticed that Fiora's door was slightly ajar, and at the same time, Rodna's voice came from behind the crack in the door.

　"Sister, this is the limited edition Cloud Sheep and Deer plush toy."

　Rodna took a huge, fluffy, adorable animal out of her backpack and handed it to Fiona. Flame couldn't understand how Rodna had managed to stuff such a big thing into her backpack. "Wow! That's great, Rodna! I can't believe you actually bought it. What an adorable little thing!"

　Fiona's eyes widened in surprise, and she took the cloud sheep and deer doll with a big smile, letting out a cute laugh. Then she hugged it and rubbed her cheeks affectionately.

　"Hmph, hmph, from today onwards you're a member of my room too!"

　Fiona, like any cute girl you might see anywhere, wore an expression of pure innocence and kindness that no one else had ever seen before, completely different from the aloof and cold impression she had given Flame when they first met.

　Just as Lieyan was feeling that peeping was wrong, and was getting anxious because she had missed the best opportunity to push the door open, and was also having trouble finishing the dessert in her hand, the sounds inside the room did not stop.

　"Look, sister, this is Garque the Rolling, and this is Elu the Lucky, and this is a pair of Fire Village Wood Mustard Seeds." Rodna pulled out more plush toys from her backpack as if by magic and placed them in Fiona's hands. Every time Fiona accepted a gift, a cute, childlike smile appeared on her face, and then she was submerged in a sea of ​​gifts.

　"Finally, this is the absolutely adorable golden roly-poly doll, Ailu."

　"Oh! You even managed to buy this!"

　"Pfft!" Flame outside the door accidentally crushed the rabbit dumpling in her hand. The reason was simple: she wanted that super rare, limited-edition golden roly-poly Ailu too!

　That was a special gift launched by Yangyan and Aicao. If you ate rabbit dumplings for three meals a day for a month, you could participate in a lottery. However, Lieyan ate rabbit dumplings for a month and still didn't win the prize. Although eating rabbit dumplings wasn't really a punishment for her.

　"Who?"

　Upon hearing the suspicious noises outside the door, Rodna and Fiorena immediately became more aggressive. Fiorena rushed to the door, expecting to catch some suspicious person, but instead it turned out to be Flame, the hero of Flame Village.

　"Miss Flame, what are you doing here?"

　"I want an absolutely adorable golden roly-poly toy, El!" Fiona looked at the flames in front of her and suddenly realized that her other side had been exposed to them. The knight who had to always remain calm and dignified and stand in front of the kingdom's knights to protect the country actually liked these toys that children liked. Thinking of how her former comrades had changed their opinion of her, Fiona suddenly felt like the sky was falling.

　Rodna looked at Flame and Fiora, who were kneeling on the ground with lifeless eyes, and said helplessly, "Miss Flame, fine, but what's wrong with you, sister?"

　The next day, three figures appeared in front of the grocer, Oboro. The first two were a young girl and Lanmei, and the last one was Lieyan.

　According to Fiorena, players can draw lucky bags at Oboro's place, which contain all sorts of items and toys, including the incredibly cute golden roly-poly toy, El. However, each lucky bag costs 100 gold coins. Of course, this isn't an unaffordable price for hunters. So, even though Oboro sets the odds of winning very low, the worst rewards are still items commonly used by hunters, such as pitfall traps, flashbangs, and large nutrient solutions. Therefore, overall, hunters still end up losing a little bit.

　But they always enjoy testing their luck.

　With Oboro's patient explanation, Lanmei used the monster's materials to exchange for ten chances to draw a prize. While stuffing sweet and sour heavenly berries into her mouth, the little girl raised her tail and grabbed the prize draw handle, gently flicking it. The prize draw mechanism consisted of several spheres wrapped in a wooden box. As the spheres collided with each other, a golden sphere fell out with a "click".

　"Congratulations, little hunter, you have obtained the Fiery Giant Bird Doll." Then the little girl spun out a golden ball.

　"Congratulations, little hunter, you have obtained the Obedient Lucky Rabbit Doll." The little girl spun out another round ball, golden in color.

　"Congratulations, little friend, you have won the Happy Beaver plush toy."

　In the end, the little girl shook out nine gold balls and one gray ball, which resulted in her tail being covered with dolls, and flames beside her.

　He looked at the little girl and Lan with envy, then took out his gold coins and did a ten-pull himself.

　"Please keep your antidote and nutrients safe. Thank you for your patronage. Welcome to visit us again."

　Flame, carrying a pile of potions, listlessly put them into her item box. Just then, Fiorena found her.

　“Miss Flame, we have work to do. Elgard plans to strengthen ties with Flame Village, but unexpectedly, there are Kappa Frogs causing trouble in the dense forest. To ensure the safety of Elgard and Flame Village’s passage, let’s go hunting Kappa Frogs together.”

　Lie Yan, who was looking for an outlet for his pent-up energy, was seized by a surge of enthusiasm and immediately agreed to Fiolena's request.

　On the other side of the dense forest, the Blue Bear Beast, relying on its keen sense of smell, found a huge beehive. The Blue Bear Beast's body was covered with thick fur, and its back and forelimbs had hard carapaces. This combination made it difficult for bees to harm the Blue Bear Beast even if they landed on it. The Blue Bear Beast's sharp claws and agile tongue could easily lick the honey inside the beehive, which earned it the titles of Honey Hunter and Gluttonous Bear.

　Unfortunately, another blue bear beast also found the hive. In order to fight for ownership of the hive, the two blue bear beasts immediately started fighting. Soon, the larger and older blue bear beast used its fighting skills to throw the other blue bear beast to the ground. The victorious blue bear beast stood up and let out a triumphant roar at the defeated blue bear beast. Just as the loser was about to leave, the little girl and Lan Mei came out of the dense forest.

　The little girl was tasked with defeating the Blue Bear Beast, but on the way, she was lured away by the fruit in the dense forest. At this moment, she filled her haori with a bag full of Red Flame Apples and Rock Pineapples. The little girl stuffed the Red Flame Apple into her mouth, making a crisp and rhythmic "crunch" sound. Her silly appearance stunned the two Blue Bear Beasts.

　"Bear paws! I only want to eat bear paws!"

　As soon as she finished speaking, the young girl handed the haori to Lan Mei behind her. Lan Mei took it and casually took out a pineapple from it, peeled off the skin, and ate it in small bites. Just as Lan Mei looked up, "Bang!" Hui Shi Zhu had already slid past her in front of her, stepping on the corpse of the Azure Bear Beast. The strong wind mixed with the Mad Dragon Virus made Lan Mei sneeze. Just as the other Azure Bear Beast was about to escape, Hui Shi Zhu jumped up with its hind legs and pinned the Azure Bear Beast to the ground, twisting its neck with its wing claws.

　For the young girl, the nearby beehive was an unexpected delight. The honey inside had not yet been eaten by the blue bear beast. As for the bees hovering around the beehive, their stingers could not pierce the skin of the young girl and Lan Mei. Moreover, the young girl had helped the bees eliminate the blue bear beast, so the bees should be grateful to her. In the end, the young girl simply and roughly knocked the beehive down with her tail and placed it on the blue bear beast's body, then swaggered back to Elgard with her prey.

　PS: Second update!

　PS2: For infants under 6 months old, because their kidneys are not fully developed, excessive water intake can cause hyponatremia (low sodium levels), so it is generally not recommended to give infants water directly.

　PS3: Also, when you go to the supermarket to buy water, never buy the biggest bottle, because that one contains the most water!

　PS4: I'd like to recommend a book: "The Comet Dragon, Entering the Gravity Field!"

　You've been attracted to girls from the outside world your whole life, and you can't handle things like a proper Gu Long.

　When attacked by Nergigante, I always thought, I wish she were a gentle and considerate sixteen-year-old beautiful girl with a maternal quality.

　When Tianhuilong was following her, she always thought, "I wish she had a pinkish-brown yang horn, and that she would show her little tiger teeth when she smiled."

　While sitting at Namielle's house, Namielle mentions going to see penguins on the ice plains. Your heart pounds, and you keep thinking, what if we encounter a gravitational field and can't take off? What if we meet the Black Hole Queen and get a gravity collar on us?

　Then the Xeno'jiiva came out of the room, still wearing its light feathered robe, and asked if you wanted to absorb the earth's energy. You spread your spear wings, exhaled dragon breath, and jumped three feet high, thinking that you could finally escape the encirclement. The Xeno'jiiva was silent for a while and then pointed at itself.

　Volume 1: 349 - The Strange Cult

　"So it was Jay who told everyone that news."

　"Well, after all, Jay is Elgard's notorious gossip. But thanks to him, the whole of Elgard knows about this, and Jay even went to apologize in the end. But given Fiona's personality, she won't say anything to him. Besides, everyone has discovered the adorable side of Fiona, which is great news."

　After spending some time together, the young girl discovered that the Melarurus had a unique talent for cooking. Only then did she feel at ease entrusting the cooking to the Melarurus. Of course, if she came across ingredients that she liked, she would keep them in advance, but most of the time she would just throw the carcasses of the prey she had captured to the Melarurus, such as the two blue bear beasts before.

　The paws of the Blue Bear Beast are a precious ingredient and extremely difficult to process, but this is not a problem for Melalu. In addition, the little girl also brought back a large amount of honey. Melalu's eyes immediately sharpened. They pulled out pure white aprons out of thin air, put them on, and began to cook!

　First, boil the bear paws in boiling water to remove the fur. Then, put the bear paws, armored dragon meat, and pork into a pot, add seasonings, and stew. Next, debone the bear paws, coat them with honey, and steam them in the previous broth. Once the bear paws are tender and flavorful, the dish is ready.

　The little girl, with a curious expression, stood next to Melalu, holding the tail of the Bubble Fox Dragon doll and watching them deal with the Blue Bear Beast's paws. Lucica, who was chatting with Lanmei, found the little girl's swaying tail particularly cute and couldn't resist reaching out to stroke the tip. The warm scales and cool touch made Lucica want to touch it a couple more times, but the little girl quickly swung her tail and pushed Lucica's hand away.

　Lanmei gave a barely perceptible smile, thinking that the little girl was quite sensible and not just anyone could touch her. Lucika didn't feel embarrassed at all. Anyway, the little girl wouldn't leave anytime soon. She could just give her more gifts, the kind that a child wouldn't refuse. She was sure she could win the little girl over.

　Yes, she likes cute things just like Fiorena, except that Fiorena likes cute little animals, while Lucica likes cute little children.

　Meanwhile, on the other side of Elgard's camp, Fiorena was constantly receiving kindness from her companions.

　“Miss Fiorena, I obtained this doll during my travels. Please accept it.”

　"It's alright! Fiorena, I'll give you this raccoon plushie as a gift. It inflates when you blow on it, so why don't you try it now, like this?"

　"Fiorena, these are the dolls that match the ones on my backpack. Please accept them."

　Although Flame wanted to keep Fiorena's love for cute dolls a secret, the fact that the hero of Flame Village was obsessed with lotteries seemed suspicious to everyone. So, while chatting with Nita, Flame accidentally revealed it. Coincidentally, Jay was learning swordsmanship next to Instructor Allo, and the talkative Jay spread the news throughout Elgard.

　Everyone liked this responsible and earnest young knight, even though she sometimes used slightly harsh methods to carry out her missions. Ultimately, everyone tacitly decided to make Fiona smile more, so they all found various cute things to give her.

　At first, Fiona awkwardly accepted the gifts while saying things like "This is really troublesome" and "Thank you all." But gradually, while still grumbling, she calmly put a bunch of cute things into her bag. However, at this rate, Fiona's room was about to be filled with cute dolls, so she had to put some of the dolls in Rodna's room.

　The next day, Fiora was organizing the latest intelligence in the command post. After opening up the transportation route between Elgard and Flame Village, the cooperation between the two could be closer. However, the problem that followed was that the frequency of monster appearances had increased. Although there was the issue of creatures from the Royal Domain, Fiora felt that something was not right.

　"Fiorena." Upon hearing Admiral Gareas's voice, Fiorena immediately straightened up and turned around.

　"Yes, I'm very sorry, I've been a bit too lax lately, Admiral Gareas." Seeing the expression on Gareas's face, Fiorena immediately thought of her own obsession with cute dolls, and then promised not to do it again.

　But Gareas didn't seem to think that way. "No, no, I don't mind at that level."

　"So, what brings you here, Admiral? As you can see, I have a few things to attend to."

　No, you should cherish what you've received.

　Upon hearing this, Fiorina smiled happily, "Yes, of course."

　Hidden behind Admiral Gareas was the Fukumo Rabbit doll that he couldn't give away. In Lucia's eyes, it had been like this for several days now; Gareas seemed to want to give it away but couldn't, and even Jay was getting anxious.

　While the bear paws were stewing, the young girl first enjoyed the bear meat. The meat of the blue bear beast contained a lot of fat, and this type of meat was very popular in Elgard. It only needed to be sliced ​​thinly, grilled over a fire, and then rolled with ghost onions or roasted potatoes and put into the mouth. The aroma of the fat in the mouth would give people great satisfaction. Soon the bear meat disappeared into the stomachs of the young girl and Lanmei. During this time, the bear paws were finally cooked.

　A crystal-clear bear paw was placed in front of the little girl. She grabbed a spoon and stuffed a big mouthful into her mouth. The rich flavor, the intense aroma with honey, and the soft yet chewy texture made her eat the bear paw bit by bit without stopping.

　That evening, a girl who called herself Narumi Umbari found Flame and introduced her ideas to him. She believed that humans should use their wisdom in other ways, rather than just in battle. She advocated that humans should live wisely and not interfere with the laws of nature as much as possible.

　According to Wenbali, she started raising funds ten years ago.

　She prepares her own theories and puts them into practice. Despite her cute appearance, Flame can tell from conversations that she is a true doer. She knows that simply saying "don't hunt" is useless, so she built facilities such as ranches and farms to feed herbivorous dragons. She wants to convey to the public the idea that we can survive well even without hunting.

　That's what she said, but whether it's true or not, Lieyan doesn't know.

　Of course, if it weren't Blaze present, but rather a Kokot hunter, a Pokai hunter, or a Yukumo hunter, they would definitely be able to guess what Umbari was going to do. What she was going to do was related to the reason for the destruction of the ancient city of Shureid thousands of years ago. As for whether it would attract the legendary Oboro in the future, well, no one knows what the future holds.

　Back in Elgard, Umbari was happily introducing to Blaze a new type of fertilizer she had developed. This fertilizer was made using the mud splashed out by the Barroth as a base, combined with various materials such as blue mushrooms, bitter worms, and flowing water grass. Once mass-produced, this fertilizer could definitely double the yield of rice and other crops. However, Umbari had run out of mud, so she had to ask a hunter to capture a Barroth to continue her experiments.

　PS: First update!

　PS2: If you eat a lot of high-calorie foods but don't want to gain weight, you can eat a lot of ice cream, and the calories will be frozen away!

　Volume 1: Chapter 350 - Her Majesty the Queen in the Courtyard

　Although different from a regular hunting quest, the capture quest was not difficult for Blaze. In the area where the dense forest and the sand plains meet, Blaze quickly found the Barroth and easily took it down. Then, Blaze took out a tranquilizer ball specifically for capturing monsters. Blaze returned to Elgard with the Barroth that had been knocked down by the tranquilizer ball almost without taking any damage. The requirement for this quest was not to give hunter materials, so Blaze received a lot of gold coins and some coupons.

　The next day, the young girl and Lanmei took the Melalu to the dense forest early in the morning to find ingredients. After arriving at the dense forest, the Melalu quickly dispersed and then went into the woods to find ingredients and usable spices such as fragrant fruit and pepper.

　"Meow, meow!" Come and see, it's a hot strawberry.

　Melalu, who was walking on the right, seemed to have discovered something and plunged into the bushes. A moment later, Melalu came out holding a huge strawberry. Melalu was about to show off her achievement to her companions when she was happy. However, the reason why the scorched strawberry is called the scorched strawberry is because of its temperature.

　"Meow!" It's so hot!

　"Meow!" Here I come.

　Melalu quickly took out a bag and filled it with the scorched strawberries. While Melalu and the others were searching for ingredients, the little girl was not idle either. She was also looking for suitable ingredients on the beach. The little girl and Lanmei walked barefoot on the shallows. Looking at the shield crabs and sickle crabs with their claws outstretched, the little girl took out the Berserker Giant Crab and killed them one by one. Then she casually lifted the crab shell and threw the crab roe and crab meat into her mouth.

　When they were having a good time eating, it wasn't the Shield Crab and the Scythe Crab that came to the little girl; instead, it was the little girl who went to them with the Berserker Giant. As for the rather large Shield Crab or Shogun Crab, the Revenant would teach them what cruelty was. The Revenant would bend down, open its mouth, bite the Shield Crab, lift it up, and slam it hard against a rock. After the crabs were stunned, the little girl would pry open their shells and stuff the yellow and white meat into her mouth.

　Similarly, there are huge boat oysters and warship oysters on the beach. These oysters normally require special tools to pry open their shells, but for Hui Shi Zhu, her claws are the best tools. Hui Shi Zhu easily pried open the oyster shells with her claws, and the large and plump oyster meat burst with sweet juice in Hui Shi Zhu's mouth. Although it was a pity that she did not bring any seasonings, she was still very satisfied to eat them like this.
