When they returned carrying so many hares and a bear hide, the women who had already set up the cooking area outside could only smile helplessly.
Only Zuri frowned when she saw what they were carrying.
"Ground hares in this season? Did you catch some migrating ones?" she asked. "But they don't migrate during the heat."
Terek let out a laugh that immediately drew the attention of those who hadn't been paying attention.
"It's all thanks to the hard work... or maybe the smart work of the kid who hunted every single one of them by himself. He somehow lured them out and hunted them without even a single moment of struggle."
Zuri blinked in surprise.
"All seven of them? He hunted them alone?" She jabbed her elbow into her mate's stomach before adding, "Did you tag along just for the sake of it?"
The verbal and physical jab had no effect on the man.
"The elders are supposed to watch their children do the labor. That's the whole reason we raise them in the first place, bhahaha!"
