Day 11-20/Day 17

Day 17
I woke up early and went to the interior of the cave. The captured women were all dead. They were laying on the ground without moving as if they were asleep. From the looks of it, seems like they drank a poison and died in their sleep. From where did they get that poison? that's a mystery. Truly, a mystery.
After recovering the small empty bottle that was laying close to them as evidence and storing it inside the bag hanging from my waist, being the one who discovered them, I went to report to Gobujii. Gobujii hurriedly rushed over, then collapsed in front of the limp pseudo-goblins that spilled from the beautiful girls' wombs and cried bitterly, grieving their death, however, I couldn’t care less.
For the girls' corpses, I took responsibility of their disposal, and because it was a pity to just let wild animals feed on them, I decided to cremate them. As payment for my labor, I took the hearts, stomachs, breasts, and uteri.
Since the【Pyrokinesis】ability I got the other day wasn’t enough, I collected a bunch of [Oily Grass] to make it burn well and twigs to maintain the fire. After using my【Pyrokinesis】to ignite the fire, I prayed for the girls' souls whilst looking at the pillar of blazing flame. "Namu Amida Butsu", I prayed. 
Among the girls, there seemed to be those with adventurer skills. Quite a lot of them actually. This group of travelers may have been unexpectedly strong. They probably looked weak only because they were already captured.

It’s unusual of me, but I didn’t feel the slightest inclination to learn about my new abilities. After morning practice, I sent out Gobukichi-kun and Gobumi-chan to go hunting since I wasn’t in the mood, then I tried making shell-based shields, armors and swords from the materials accumulated to this day.
Lately, crafting has become somewhat of a hobby of mine. Ah, it seems my new ability【Job - Craftsman】became useful immediately. The goods I crafted came out a lot better than before. The ability, like its name suggests, corrects the mistakes. By the way, the shield and armor came out successfully while the shell-based sword ended up in failure.
My meal for today consisted of what Gobukichi-kun and Gobumi-chan shared with me from their hunt's spoils, in addition to the tribute that increased due to yesterday's training.
Ah, this might be a bit late, but Gobumi-chan had also【Rank Up】to a hobgoblin this morning. She became quite cute. the difference from when she was a goblin was intimidating, it's simply remarkable. Because her old equipment is now too small for her, I lent her my spares.
She made a subtle expression, looking happy and at the same time unsatisfied, so I decided to make her brand new equipment at a later date. Truth is, I would have happily made it today, but there wasn't enough time.
