147 The Final of the Scramble of the Holy Grail 1 (1/2)

”Bbook, bboo-bbook!”

'I feel a strong energy from somewhere bbook!'

Bbookbbook, who was deliciously eating a meatball right after battle like any other time, suddenly jerked his head up.

He had felt a strong energy that he had never felt before up until now calling him.

After shoving all the meatballs that were in front of him into his mouth, Bbookbbook nodded his head at Ian.

”Bboo-bbook!”

'Owner, I'm just going to take care of some business for a moment bbook!'

Of course, there was no way that Ian, who was distracted, would have heard Bbookbbook's report(?), but Bbookbbook didn't care.

Since reports were just formalities anyways.

With excited footsteps, Bbookbbook began to crawl off.

'Energy as strong as this means that there's probably quite a delicious elixir bbook!'

Was it ever since he obtained Halli and Pin?

At some point, there were a lot more cases when Ian left Bbookbbook alone during battle.

Since he had a lot more Familiars, and they mostly fought battles using long-ranged skills, unless it was a very dangerous situation, he hunted without putting Bbookbbook on his back.

'Because it's been awhile since I've been hanging on his back for such a long time, I feel stifled to death bbook!'

However, ever since they came to the central continent, because the hunting grounds themselves were incredibly high-level and there was no leeway to be careless for even a moment, Ian had Bbookbbook on his back constantly.

Because of that, it was the first time in an incredibly long time that Ian had let Bbookbbook down, and Bbookbbook, who received freedom for the first time since entering the central continent, couldn't help but feel excitement.

'My heart is fluttering bbook! I hope it's something more delicious than meatballs bbook!'

Ian didn't really know about this, but once Bbookbbook obtained freedom(?), he went out without Ian knowing and dug out and ate elixirs.

And in this giant dungeon that Bbookbbook came to for the first time in his life, elixirs that he would desire were scattered here and there.

The scents of the unknown that could be sensed more strongly as Bbookbbook moved made his short legs move even faster.

'I've found one for now bbook!'

Bbookbbook, who successfully crawled up the wall with his chubby body, dug out the multi-coloured grassroot that was growing out of the cave wall and began to eat it.

”Bbook! Bboo-bbook!”

'Hm, this aroma! This texture that can be felt on my tongue is beyond comparison bbook!'

To Bbookbbook, tasting all the elixirs that scattered here and there across the continent was an incredibly enjoyable job.

Of course, it was hard to find something that satisfied Bbookbbook more than meatballs, which had a stimulating taste that filled his mouth, but there was a different charm in tasting medicinal herbs.

'I feel the energy of Mother Nature in my stomach bbook!'

Whenever he ate medicinal herbs, a new energy blew vigor into Bbookbbook's whole body.

After completely gobbling up the large medicinal herb root, Bbookbbook started walking again.

However, an annoying message popped up in front of Bbookbbook's eyes.

• You have ingested the Thousand-Year Multi-coloured Grass. The information can be shared with Owner 'Ian'.

This annoying message popped up every time he ate a medicinal herb.

With a flat expression, Bbookbbook shook his head.

'I don't want to bbook! If my owner knows, then he'll tell me to bring him one for himself as well bbook! I'm going to eat it all by myself bbook!'

As he did so, the message disappeared, and Bbookbbook began to move his feet quickly again.

'Soon, my owner will figure out that I've disappeared and come looking for me bbook. I need to eat as much as I can before then bbook!'

Bbookbbook moved quickly to the point it was hard to believe that a speed like that could come from such short legs, and he went around consuming medicinal herbs inside of the dungeon.

And shortly after.

Just like Bbookbbook worried, an unknown strength began to wrap around Bbookbbook's body.

His owner Ian had let out a command to Summon Release him.

Bbookbbook began to stubbornly resist the powerful, unknown strength.

'I don't want to bbook! I'm going to eat more bbook!'

As he did so, surprisingly, the blue light that wrapped around Bbookbbook began to disperse into the air.

And Bbookbbook, who had successfully rejected Ian's Summon Release command, began to move his feet again.

'Nobody can stop me bbook!'

With a confident appearance, Bbookbbook began to ingest the elixir he found again.

At first, Bbookbbook originally had no strength to reject Ian's command.

However, as he ingested elixirs and slowly became stronger, it became possible for him to reject this unknown energy.

Bbookbbook also had a small dream.

'If I consume more elixirs, it's possible that I could run away from this wicked owner bbook!'

Bbookbbook was a turtle labourer that dreamed of escaping his wicked owner that was cheap with his wage payments.

In many ways, gathering elixirs was an incredibly important(?) job for Bbookbbook.

However, just then, a different kind of voice was heard.

And the content couldn't help but pull Bbookbbook's attention.

• Who are you, this is the first time I have seen a turtle that has such a cool appearance ever since I was born!

At the appearance compliment, which could even make whales dance, Bbookbbook forgot about the medicinal herb he was chewing on and turned his head.

'No, I never knew there would be someone that would recognize my handsome appearance from such an out-of-the-way spot bbook!'

And at the gaze that met his own, Bbookbbook couldn't help but become taken aback.

This was because for an instant he was blinded by whatever was shining gold in colour.

”Bbook- bboo-bbook-!”

Shortly after, Bbookbbook's vision, which was clouded, returned to normal, and after checking the other, Bbookbbook's two eyes rounded.

'Bbook! This is my first time seeing such a cool turtle bbook!'

In front of Bbookbbook, a golden turtle that had a shell shining gold and a large, beautiful head was crawling towards him.

Even for Bbookbbook, the narcissist turtle, it was a perfect appearance that he couldn't help but acknowledge.

There was one word that hit Bbookbbook's memory hard for a moment.

• Bbookbbook, you, do you know who is the most handsome and cool turtle in the world?

It was the story he heard from his wicked owner a couple months ago that he had a hard time believing.

• There is a turtle called Bbakbbak in the northern continent, and apparently, that turtle is the coolest turtle in the world.

Bbookbbook, who remembered the cool turtle story that he heard from Ian, wore a determined expression as he glared at the golden turtle.

His opponent was for sure the Bbakbbak that Ian spoke of.

'Bbakbbak…! I had no idea that I would meet you in a place like this bbook!'

Bbakbbak was the wicked turtle that introduced Bbookbbook to the world of dieting and portion control.

Bbookbbook couldn't forget that name.

And internally, he hardened his determination.
