Found it!

The match scraped against the red phosphorus on the side of the box.

Hiss.

A flame sprang to life. When Qin Ran tossed it into the pit of bones soaked in kerosene, the tiny flame instantly became a roaring blaze.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky like a vast bank of dark clouds.

Herbert and Pierre murmured prayers for the dead.

Even Big Guy stood solemnly beside them.

The fire burned for nearly two hours.

When the flames began to die down, Qin Ran picked up the shovel beside him.

He did not fill in the pit. He merely gathered the bones that had not burned away and buried them again.

Perhaps beasts with keen noses would still dig them up.

But they had done everything they could.

Pierre, Big Guy, and even Herbert, elderly as he was, joined in the burial work. They worked until dark before finally finishing.

"I swear I'm never eating Bisa Steak again!"

Sitting beside the campfire, resting and eating dry rations, Pierre made his declaration in all seriousness.

"I think it'll be a long time before I want to eat ribs again, too!"

Though I've never really had them before.

Qin Ran smiled as he agreed.

Of course, he kept the latter part to himself.

As for Caesar Steak?

Naturally, Qin Ran had never tried that delicacy from this dungeon world either.

Herbert, however, explained it to him.

"Bisa Steak is famous for being served on the bone, with plenty of meat and rich juices. People particularly praise its bright red sauce..."

"Urgh!"

"Herbert, please stop ruining my appetite!"

Before the old scholar could finish, Pierre made a show of gagging.

Qin Ran looked equally unable to stomach it.

After all, the old scholar's description had reminded him of the bones in the pit.
