Chapter 88.2

Nina-san And Snapping Turtles

I showered, washing away the sweat from my dungeon adventure, or the mucus I produced to wear my suit. Then, I hopped on my bike and headed to the local grocery store. I bought about a week's worth of instant rice porridge, canned fruits like oranges and pineapples, and ingredients like green onions and ginger.

(When you have a cold, you need rice porridge, sweet canned fruits, green onions, and ginger. Alright, that should be perfect!)

Rice porridge is gentle on the stomach, even when you're feeling weak. Sweet canned fruits can taste good even if your taste sense is off due to a cold. And as for green onionsthose are like medicine! The power of green onions is immeasurable. I'll skip the details, but even the virtual world's diva has them as a standard feature, so green onions are truly amazing.

As for ginger, there's no need to explain. When you warm it up and drink it, it warms your body. If you eat it cold, it cools down your body. Ginger possesses the power of both yin and yang! In this world, there are even practitioners of ginger known as "ginger lovers."

So, with these supplies in mind, I took the train to Nana's house. Before going, I sent her a message saying, [I'm bringing relief supplies, and I'll be there on my bike shortly.[ In response, Nina-san said, [Kouchi, there's no place to park your bike around my apartment]Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

[Clatter Clank]

""

But for this visit, I was on foot, so I walked through these narrow, winding alleyways, feeling the atmosphere of the downtown district.

I arrived at a small bridge after passing through one of these alleyways. The river was narrow, not even three meters wide. On both sides, houses were tightly packed together, and the townscape gave the impression that reconstruction was impossible.

A turtle was floating on the river's surface looking quite content.

[Oh, is that a turtle?] I almost passed by but then double-checked its presence and turned back.

"Wait! Isn't that a snapping turtle!?"

Upon closer inspection, I realized it was indeed a snapping turtle. A snapping turtle is an edible turtle. But I had never eaten it because snapping turtles are considered a gourmet ingredient and can only be enjoyed in high-end restaurants.

As I gazed at the snapping turtle floating on the river, I began to feel an overwhelming desire to catch it. Then cook and taste it.

"Hmm a snapping turtle. It must be delicious. That's it! I'll catch this snapping turtle and bring it to Nina-san! Snapping turtles are nutritious, good for the skin, and just what Nina-san needs while she's recovering from a cold!"

And so, I made up my mind to catch the snapping turtle floating so contentedly on the river. From now on, I'm the Snapping Turtle Catcher!
