…

Phantom Body became Level 6, which means that my phantom had become more flexible, stronger, and perhaps can extend even longer.

Meanwhile, Split Phantom has become Level 3, meaning that my split phantoms could be born stronger, perhaps, might as well try to make another phantom clone now that my soul is strong…

But what do I make it into? That's the problem now…

Phantom Materialization and Paranormal Sense reached level 2 quite fast, but they need to level up a bit more to intensity their effects, although they are already good as they are.

So today in the morning after checking my stats, we went into the important thing!

The jelly!

"Uwah, it so sweet and… soft! I can't… describe it well…" said Benladann, filling her cheeks with jelly to the point she resembled a tiny hamster filling her cheek pouches with seeds.

Indeed… It was delicious.

After what we did yesterday, we woke up to the jelly having hardened itself from its liquid boiling state!

And it was of a bluish and green color, with a lot of the fruit pulp giving it more sweetness, and the fruit pieces gave it a last and even more delicious flavor and a little surprise in between the softness of the jelly.

"It is indeed quite good… We'll call this Slime Jelly, alright?" I asked.

"Sure thing! Let's prepare a lot so we can eat every day!" said Benladann, with a radiant smile.

We enjoyed a breakfast of slime jelly and then we began to prepare even more.

Yuki at our side was enjoying I thoroughly too, but the wolves didn't like it, they are mostly carnivorous, and although slime could be said to be a living "animal" it is not exactly the meat they eat.

Well, as we advanced through the skies, the wolves hunted down rabbits and other wolves from weaker packs they encountered, cannibalism is fair in the wild I guess.

I also hunted down stronger variants of Ice Crows, which began to fly around. They mean no harm, but I hunted them down anyways, I wanted to taste them.

Instead of the usual little size they had, they were rather big, probably as big as Benladann's torso, and their wingspan went as long as 6 meters!

They also seemed fiercer, with sharper claws and beaks made of hardened ice similar to the one I make, which doesn't melt… so it is present in the wild too.

As we butchered them, Benladann grabbed one from the wings and extended her arms horizontally, the wings were simply immense.

"Look, I am an angel!" she chuckled.

"Haha… I don't think an angel would look like the corpse of a giant bird," I said.

"Eh? Well, yeah… I wonder if you can tame these birds the next time we meet them?" asked Benladann.

"Hmm… Actually, that sounds like a good idea. I could tame some and use them as recon," I said.

Benladann tilted her head in confusion.

"What's recon?" she asked.

"Scouting," I said.

"Oh! So it can fly around and inspect stuff for us! But how will it communicate what it saw?" asked Benladann.

"Through telepathy, any tamed monster can somehow communicate to me what they think, feel, or have seen, to an extent. Of all the monsters, Yuki and Frost are the most intelligent so their information is often detailed… Well, it is hard to explain," I sighed.

"I see! Well, let's get to it!"

We began to butcher the four Giant Ice Crows I caught by firing icicle spears at them and then we cut them down, the meat was looking pretty good and white, just like chicken.

We decided to make "chicken" soup with this, although we left another two grilling while seasoning them with dried herbs and root salt.

The root that is not salty from the root salt can be boiled and eaten like potato, so Benladann added those too, alongside mushrooms and a few frozen cubes of rabbit broth to give it even more flavor to the soup.

"It looks so nice!" said Benladann.

And bam! It was done after around an hour and a half, "chicken" broth with boiled root and mushrooms, and grilled "chicken" seasoned with dried herbs and root salt, it was a good meal.

Like this, we spent most of the day lazing around for once, Benladann cuddled with me, and we ended sleeping through most of the day after filling our bellies with lunch.
