Yusuf Zuck's first prey was a gazelle.
Yes, a gazelle, an animal that had become quite rare on the grasslands. He saw four, but only shot one. It wasn't that he didn't want to shoot them all, it was because, in his memory, gazelles were now extremely rare protected wildlife, which is why he only took one down.
Mainly, he wanted to taste what gazelle meat was like.
And since shooting that gazelle, his subsequent gains only increased.
He bagged thirteen rabbits and seven pheasants, along with a few large birds he couldn't name that resembled eagles—taking down two of those as well. Then, there was the 'half-jin killer,' a bird species with particularly delicious meat—he had eaten it before. The reason for its name was that after it was killed and gutted, it would still weigh half a jin.
After he used up the last of his thirty bullets, he discovered he had taken a total of thirty-one pieces of prey, mainly because he had shot down the two large birds with a single bullet.
