"So, what are you guys going to do now that you have your Hunter licenses?" - nchi asked as she set all the dishes down on the table.
"Travel so more, and who knows, maybe visit the most inhospitable places on this continent" - Cloud answered as he started to think.
"So they're going to be [Treasure Hunters]?" - nchi asked as she looked at Mimi, who was sleeping peacefully in Cloud's hands.
"I was thinking the sa thing, but then I found out that there was a branch called [Universal Hunters]!" - Cloud replied calmly.
"Interesting, although it's a good option for you guys" - replied nchi while nodding - "I an, you don't need to lock yourselves into a single category if you don't want to, we just divide our areas of work because that way we can fully concentrate on our goals, saving a lot of our ti."
"I understand, it makes sense" - nodded Kyoko as she continued to pet Kuro, only to notice how the little kitten was looking hungrily at the food nchi had put on the table.
"Easy, it was a lot of at so I made too much" - said nchi as she stroked Kuro's head with a smile on her face.
"Nya!" - Kuro cried out excitedly as she licked the blue-haired girl's face.
"You tickle ~" - nchi said as she carefully picked up the little cat, only to look at Kyoko with jealousy.
"Uh" - Kyoko felt a little uncomfortable with nchi's stare, though at the sa ti she now understood how Cloud must be feeling with all the jealous looks she was giving him for having Mimi and the Jackalope next to him.
"Ok, we better eat" - nchi said as she shook her head and put the little cat down, only to notice how the little one jumped on the table and sat down - "Uh, is this normal?"
"Kuro not only has the intelligence of a normal person, but also the manners" - Kyoko replied calmly as Kuro nodded.
"Impressive" - nchi said in surprise as she set down a small plate in front of Kuro with food, only to see how Kuro stood her ground - "She's even waiting for us to eat, what a smart little thing."
Kuro owed in appreciation, though everyone could notice the impatient look the little one had.
"We'd better eat" - Cloud said as he shook his head and walked towards the table so he could taste this rare dish.

Two hours later, the group had finished devouring with gusto the al prepared by nchi.
"It was delicious" - said Kyōka while using a toothpick to remove the pieces of food that still remained between her teeth - "I don't think I could live without eating your food".
"Thank you for your kind words" - replied nchi while shaking her head.
"I'm serious, your culinary power is impressive" - Kyōka continued seriously - "How would you like to join our journey?"
"Kyōka!" - Kyoko exclaid in surprise upon hearing her companion's words.
"What? I'm being sincere about this" - said Kyōka while folding her arms - "She has the talent and the necessary fighting level, I'll tell you that much, I can feel her hidden aura."
"Hmm, thank you for your praise" - nchi replied with a smile, but her expression inside was very different, after all, she hadn't shown her strength during her stay together with the group.
"Knife user, possibly a habit you got from being a cook, power level, day that quite high for a [Gourt Slayer], I'm sure this is because many ingredients are in places hard to access unless you have the necessary power" - Kyōka continued while squinting - "A great speed, this is easily detectable by the firmness of your leg and arm muscles."
". . ." - nchi was silent for a few seconds as she looked at her limbs, only to notice how these were not so different from those of a normal woman.
"To other people's eyes, your arms and legs are normal, but to an expert, we can see how your muscles are not only hard, but also flexible and full of power" - Kyōka replied with a huge smile - "If I had to compare you to soone, I would say that your current power level, is like Chifuyu-san's."
"Chifuyu-san?" - nchi thought upon hearing this na unfamiliar to her.
"Oh, sorry, that was a slip of tongue" - Kyōka replied with a forced smile - "You just have to know that she's strong, though a bit weaker than ."
"Only if she uses her fists, if she uses her spear, it's a different situation" - Kyoko added while giving her a blank look.
She had never seen Chifuyu fight at her full power, much less after training in the world of [Dragons Rioting] and [Infinite Stratos], in fact, only Cloud knew for sure how strong Chifuyu was right now, and her information was useless because while they were in this world, the woman continued to train in her ho world.
"Tch" - Kyōka clicked her tongue when she heard this, but said nothing to refute her companion's words.
"Now I'm a little curious as to what kind of woman, this Chifuyu girl is" - nchi said while looking at the trio.
"I'm sorry, but it's impossible" - replied Kyōka while shaking her head - "She's not in this world".
"Oh, sorry" - said nchi with a forced smile, after all, she had stepped on a mine.
"Don't worry, we'll see her again soday" - Kyoko replied while shaking her head.
"Well, we'll all end up in that place sooner or later" - nodded nchi as she shook her head.
None of the trio did anything to fix this misunderstanding, after all, it was the best way to explain them talking about certain people.
"Well, I guess this would be all for now" - Cloud said as he carefully got up so as not to wake up Mimi and Sora, after all, the two little ones were sleeping peacefully after eating.
"Huh? Are they leaving so fast?" - nchi asked in surprise.
"Yes, we have many places to visit, and treasures to find" - Cloud replied calmly - "Not to ntion that we can't keep taking advantage of your kindness."
"Uh" - nchi didn't know what to say when she heard this.
"It was a pleasure traveling with you, nchi-san" - Kyoko said as she gave a small bow.
"h, it's a waste" - Kyōka snorted as she looked at the other blue-haired girl - "Your food is delicious, and you need ingredients, while we want to go to dangerous places, places that possibly have exotic or unknown ingredients, not to ntion that we have Mimi."
"She has a point" - Kyoko said as she looked at the little creature sleeping in her lover's arms - "And rare ingredients or ingredients with beneficial effects, are considered treasures."
She had seen how Mimi had used her ability during dinner, aiming directly at the rarest ingredients nchi had in her dwelling.
"It would seem that you only wish to continue cooking for you" - nchi replied as she folded her arms.
"I don't deny it, but this deal also benefits you, and you can't deny it" - Kyōka replied with disdain - "Now the question is, are you coming with us, or not?"
"Give a day to think things over, after all, I've been traveling alone since I debuted as a hunter" - nchi replied while shaking her head.
"Well, we can wait a day" - said Kyōka as she nodded and pushed her two companions out of the dwelling - "You know where we are staying."
"OK" - nodded nchi as she started to think about the proposal Kyōka had made to her, only to notice how far from seeming like a bad idea, she was excited to hear that they wished to continue their journey by her side - "Is it any fun to travel with them?"
nchi was silent for a few seconds before walking around her house in search of answers, after all, this was a proposal that could change her life as a person, and as a hunter.
* * * * *
"You really invited her" - Cloud said as he looked at his two companions.
"What? It's fun to have her along with us, not to ntion that what I said is not a lie" - replied Kyōka while snorting with disdain - "She's talented as a cook and as a fighter, and it's a pity that she doesn't use it her talent as a warrior because she's completely focused on ingredients."
"And why did you invite her, Kyoko?" - Cloud asked curiously.
"One, because she's a good person, Kuro can assure you" - answered Kyoko as the black cat owed - "And secondly, because her food can help you, Cloud."
"Well, you have a point" - Cloud replied as he started to think - "What do you say, Sora?"
"Kyu ~!" - the little Jackalope nodded with a cute squeal.
"I see you liked her" - Cloud smiled as he felt Sora consu so of the wild energy coursing through her body.
He had to admit that the trip to [Kuruta Island], had been worth it, after all, his two little companions, were helping him ease the pressure his mana net was under.
