Volume 7 Chapter 63: All Of Us Will Help You

"Alright, I'm going to prepare dinner. You guys go and set up camp." They were going with standard procedure. 

"Understood!" Herrick and Melor got to work. Keith cracked his neck as he thought about what to do with the bison. 

Bison meat was tricky. Cooked for too long, the meat would become stringy and coarse. Watching over the meat was crucial. Bison stroganoff sounds nice. Also, having some steak on the side was perfect. 

The standard procedure was to butcher the meat. Slicing the slab of bison meat thinly, Keith placed the strips into a pot to sear. Once he did, there was an earthy aroma filling the area. Not surprising. The bison had been feeding on so much grass; no wonder the meat smelled so earthy.  

Taking them out, what was left in the pot was a deep sear of the meat. Butter goes in with some diced onions. While that turned golden brown, mushrooms were thrown in. Salt and pepper were used for seasoning, and some flour was incorporated. Then, Keith brought a brown liquid, powering it into the pot. Rush bull broth. Always had some in case he needed to make a stew. 

More seasoning was added before he incorporated the cream and the bison strips. The only thing left was to wait for it to boil. 

"Now for the steaks." Keith grinned as he sliced a slab of meat into deep cuts. He seared it onto a pan, letting it have a deep crust. While he continued to do this, Herrick and Melor returned,

"Woohoo! We got more bison meat!" The group had brought back more meat. Because of the aroma from the camp, the two went on a frenzy to take them out. 

"Is Keith done with the food?"

"Not yet." Leona shook her head. 

"Do you need-"

"Great!" Herrick's ears wiggled back and forth as he quickly dashed to the makeshift kitchen. 

"..." Leona's expression turned blank. The others really didn't know what to say. It felt like her husband was being taken away by someone. 

Herrick, you gotta be better than that. 

"And place it on the dish, and we're good!" Keith handed the plates over to everyone. The others sparkled as they started to eat. 

"Delicious as always," Scarlet commented as she ate. 

"Did you make more meat than usual?" That big steak on top was saying a lot. 

"We've been fighting so many monsters. I thought having more meat was a good idea."

"It sure is!" "Definitely!" The meat lovers definitely agreed to that. 

Keith could only shake his head as they continued their meal. 

"Alright, now let's go to sleep now." After having dinner, it was time for them to get to bed. 

"How are we going to split it up?" 

"Um, how about this;

Keith - Krystal

Alfia - Leona

Scarlet - Herrick

Carolyn – Sarah

Gabriel – Jack/ Arlo

Faelyn  - Melor

"Everyone good with that?" Each group had a person they could sense for monsters.

"Ah?" Carolyn was going to say something but paused when she saw how the others were content with it.

Keith nodded, "Alright, we'll go with that."

"How is the sword going for you?" Keith stared at the white sword that Krystal had. She had gotten this from Dalen's workshop. 

"It's good, and I'll pay you back when I get the coins." The one who bought this sword was this man. She only glanced at it, but the guy had bought it. 

"It's fine. It's not that expensive."

"Spending 3 gold coins is not expensive?" Anyone who heard that would definitely be annoyed. She was right now!

"I spent so much on my shield. There's really nothing I care about." coins were never an issue.

“…”

"How are you feeling?"

"Hmm?"

"I meant with everything." Keith scratched his head, "I haven't had the opportunity to ask you this question."

"You did. But you never did ask me about it."

"Ahaha."

"You know I wasn't ready to answer that question." Keith had multiple times where he could ask if she was doing well. But she knew the answer; she was broken. She didn't know how to act and react to all this information.

"But you were the only one who tried to keep me together."

"So what are you going to do about your family?"

"…I don't know."

"If you need any help, then ask away. All of us will help you out." He knew whatever was said, the others would help him.

"Thank you."

"You finally cracked a goofy grin." Keith laughed.

"Shut it."

"Relax, we're friends."

"Yeah." Friends. It was a good feeling having someone to back you up.
