Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 204: A Waste Not to Eat

Yuan Qi decisively took the stone slab from the beastman and handed it to Wu Yue.

Wu Yue smiled and nodded. "Absolutely perfect."

Although he didn’t know what "absolutely perfect" meant, the clever Yuan Qi could tell from her smile that she was satisfied with the stone slab.

The fresh beast meat had been cut into palm-sized chunks by the beastmen, making it easy for the young female to handle.

Wu Yue directed the Beastman Warriors to cut the chunks of meat into thinner slices.

Then, she rubbed a piece of fat back and forth across the preheated stone slab. An irresistible aroma instantly wafted out in front of the two grass huts.

Once the stone slab was glistening with oil, the beastmen followed her instructions and laid the slices of meat on it.

With a SIZZLE, an even richer aroma drew the eyes of the Beastman Warriors. All the beastmen subconsciously gathered around the small cooking slab.

Watching their captain skillfully prepare the delicious food under the young female’s guidance, a chorus of loud gulps echoed one after another.

Wu Yue looked at them in amusement. She picked up the chopsticks the Beastman Warriors had helped her whittle, used them to place a cooked slice of meat on a large leaf, and handed it to the surrounding beastmen. "Come on, everyone, have a taste."

The beastmen’s eyes were like little hooks, as if their gazes alone could snatch the slice of meat off the leaf and into their mouths.

But they looked at the young female and politely refused, "You eat it, young female. You’ve been hungry all day."

Seeing how their mouths said one thing but their eyes another, Wu Yue was practically trembling with silent laughter. "You all can split this," she said. "The rest is all mine."

As she spoke, she pointed to the stone slab, which Uncle Yuan Qi had already covered with meat slices again.

The beastmen’s eyes lit up. The one who had been wrongfully accused of burning the meat earlier stepped forward with a sheepish grin and took the large leaf from Wu Yue’s hand. "Heh, I’ll have the first taste. If it’s good, Yue, you can leave all the grilling to me from now on."

Hearing this, the beastmen behind him all shot him looks of contempt.

’Not only does he get the first bite, but he’s also trying to show off in front of the young female. He’s totally asking for a beating!’

They exchanged glances and broke into knowing smiles in unison.

A moment later, after a cacophony of wails and howls, the beastman was on the verge of tears as he stared at his now-empty leaf, shooting an accusing glare at his comrades.

"Dammit, are you guys even Snow Tiger Beastmen?"

’You’re even more shameless than hyena beastmen!’

’I can practically feel the dark depths of your jealousy.’

After eating, Wu Yue decisively left the energetic beastmen who were still fighting over the grilled meat and went into her little grass hut to rest.

The moment the program shut down, a wave of exhaustion hit her—her arms ached, her head felt heavy, and her feet felt light. She felt completely awful.

Wu Yue had barely lain down in her grass nest before she fell into a deep sleep.

As the young female’s breathing steadied, the beastmen exchanged a look, ended their squabble, and fell silent.

Four Beastman Warriors stepped forward of their own accord to stand guard around the grass hut.

The Black Wolf Tribe didn’t know Yue’s identity, but these beastmen—the ones who had hunted Fierce Beasts with her—did.

She was another witch for their Snow Tiger Tribe.

The remaining beastmen continued to gather around the cooking slab, grilling and finishing off the rest of the food.

’Anyway, since the Black Wolf Tribe is providing all the food during this healing period, it would be a waste not to eat it...’
