After the Ball Rabbit finished eating, its size increased to that almost twice bigger.
It ate at least 5 times the current size. Seriously, just what is this fellow made of?

While the Ball Rabbit ate, I crouch on the ground, laying there.
My big mouth makes a large “fuaa” sound, yawning with all my might.

At that moment, the body of the Ball Rabbit suddenly expands rapidly.

Oi oi this fellow, it finally evolved.
I’ll confirm its status at once.

Race：Small Ball Rabbit
[T.N:the raw is “小玉兎”, where the “小” refers to “small”. However its different words fo “small” from the one used for the dragon’s evolution path mentioned in ch14 from the previous translation group: which is “プチ(puchi)”, something like pet.i.t. Just a little info I need to add]

…somehow, wasn’t food-related skills increased?
As I thought I fed this fellow a bit too much..

Even the t.i.tle skill〖Big Eater〗had increased to Lv2.

Or rather, what the heck is this〖Overeating Resistance〗? Do you mean to say, your stomach won’t feel any pain once you’ve eaten too much?
Since you don’t need to endure it anymore you’ll eat as much as you can?

This Small Ball Rabbit,just how useful is it I wonder.(T.N:Not sure about this line)
Since its in the E rank, I don’t think its possible to make it evolve in one go again.

As for the effect of the〖Dragon Scale Powder〗, I don’t know how long it can last.

Still…. Dragon Scale Powder, it’s at Lv4 now…. Would it really be okay for me to have an optimistic view?
The next enemy, should I use the〖Plague Breath〗?

After the Ball Rabbit stretches its body, it looks at me.

Then it turns its line of vision to me again.

… Could it be, this fellow still wants to eat?
Oh well, I’ll serve you till you’re satisfied. Although it’s not much work to prepare it, it’s still annoying.

When I cut the cactus with my claws, the Ball Rabbit consumes the insides and spits the skin ,
As expected, since it ate so much since a while ago, with a leaked “Puho” breath, it stops eating.

It seems like the Ball Rabbit had grown, as it seems to know where it should stop.
If it grows any bigger, the procurement of food will definitely becomes difficult.

Now that I remembers, it has the〖Food Reproduction〗skill.
Maybe it had recovered by now.

Race：Small Ball Rabbit

Status：Normal

Lv　：1/12

HP　：8/10

MP　：0/6

Uwa, although I expected it it’s still scary.
Can the thing it consumed be turned into HP?

If I think about it, it’s like a degraded version of〖Automatic HP Recovery〗, so it should be considered as excellent for an E rank monster to have a mean for recovery.

It seems worthy having the〖Overeating Resistance〗which allows it to eat without stopping.

I put the Ball Rabbit on top of my head and walk through the desert.
Since I’m with the Ball Rabbit, my speed has decreased since I can’t use〖Roll〗. If I use that to search, I feel like I would have been able to find some cave or something like that.

Aah, my body starts to ache.

I can roll around any obstacle on the ground, and as I got pretty good at doing a little mountain jump, it felt really nice.

It’s like I’m having some kind of withdrawal syndrome.

In the end, it seems like I still can’t find a place to make a base even after the day grew darker.
The Ball Rabbit is getting sleepy. Should we take a rest for now?

I put the Ball Rabbit down from my head.

Because it seems like a fat pile of sand, it will definitely be found out by starving monster huh…this fellow.

I cover the sand pile with my body, and closed my eyes.
It’s like the Ball Rabbit is being swallowed when I lay like this, みたいなことにはならねぇだろ。[T.N: Sorry, no idea at all how to translate this one]

…However, sleeping in the open like this, somehow I can’t settle down.

But I think about the possibility of being attacked while I sleep, there’s no way I could do that.(T.N:This line is not that accurate)

I will absolutely fight back though. But first I’ll grab the Ball Rabbit and fly to run away.

When I think of it this way, I seems to have realized just how comfortable my life at the forest was.

There’s also my hobby of making pottery, and I even planned to enlarge the cave more.
And above all else, there’s the Black Lizard as well as those Red Monkeys….

No, it can’t be helped.

According to the evolution path, I should be able to suppress the〖Dragon Scale Powder〗.
Once I managed to do that, I’ll slowly returns to the forest.

T.N: The rabbit is cute and all, but there should be another heroin appearing  for this desert arc(a bit of spoiler, but whatever). Not for a while though(around 10 chapters I think). So you have to ponder about that for a while since I’ll be taking a break for some time.(*evil laugh*)
