Arafoo Otoko no Isekai Tsuuhan Seikatsu

Episode 86 The court cook is amazing.

Killing rats in the basement of the castle. My Rodenticide operation seems to have been neutralized, with 14 bags of rats caught in a large sack of hemp.

There are 50 in a bag, so there are 700 in total. But there are still rats.

Once again, I sprinkled the poison and decided to dive tomorrow.

I sweated so I decided to take a bath instead of taking a bath at the well today.

But pumping water is tough, and I'd like to put an electric pump on the well... but it's troublesome to hear all about it.

Well, it's all magical, it's all secret - and there's nothing I can't push.

Get out of the bath and think for a while.

"Oh, yeah."

Speaking of which, there's a gacha pump coming in from the Empire. You saw a demonstration at Mr. Mallow's.

That won't be a problem.

Find the gacha pump at Shangri-La - about 20,000 yen.

Buy a PVC tube to attach to this guy and a compartment to use on the pedestal.

PVC tubes are over-technology, but you can't see them.

Lid the well with a perforated compartment. Connect it to the gacha pump through a PVC tube. Finally, the pump should be bolted to the pedestal.

Everyone is watching my pump install. Primura is attending a pump test at the Mallow Chamber of Commerce, so she knows what this is.

"Husband, what is this? If you block the well, you won't be able to pump water, will you?

"This is called a gacha pump, which pumps water out of the well. It's fashionable in the Empire, Primura.

"Yes, this is very useful."

Put water in the pump and literally pump it.

Then - suddenly the iron mouth overflowed with water.

"The water's coming out!" "What the hell, wow! Is that your husband's magic?

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

"Husband, let me do it."

Nyamena is touched by moving the lever up and down.

"Awesome! Well, sometimes the Empire makes good stuff!

"That's right!

This will make it easier to pump water.

--And in the evening.

I thought the princess was coming again, and I knew it. But the condition is slightly different.

There are men in white with big pots behind them.

It's like a white tie, but I wonder if it's the cook from the looks of it.

"Kenichi, my concubine is going to treat you today."

That's what the princess said, so I took the table out of the item BOX.

A torso is placed on it and the lid is removed. Among them was a gloomy green object.

"This... but it kind of smells like curry."

"Yes, sir, this smells like curry." "I think so too."

"That's right. This is a reproduction of the spices they received from the court chefs."

"How could you duplicate it in one shot? What an extraordinary thing to be a court cook."

"Hmm, these guys said they could reproduce in a few days, so I left it to them."

What do you think? What about our curry?

The gentleman who walked in front of me was a man with blonde hair and blonde Kaiser beard. Apparently the chef.

"This is great. Perfect except for the spice difference or the color difference."

Yeah, I guess so.

The cook is nosy, but this is certainly amazing. It's not a one-shot copy.

Probably someone who just eats food and drinks soup and understands ingredients.

Looks like it's delicious.

"Kenichi, let's all eat this. It was a white grain."

"Hahaha! The princess is going to run out of luck for my whole life."

"I don't need such a noble dialogue."

The princess is sick and tired of hearing these dialogues all the time.

But if you don't do it, people might say it's rude...

I don't cook because of sudden events, so I buy a bundle of rice from Shangri-La. I found something big, like a special platter, so I think this one will do.

This princess is a big eater. I haven't baked any bread yet, so I bought it from Shangri-La.

Plates were lined up on the table, and today is Green Curry Day. There was also a green curry in the former world, so I don't care.

Like yesterday, the lady knight of the guard is sitting next to the princess. Would a knight who fought with me be of any help?

I took the curry on the plate to the beasts sitting on the ground, but I hesitated.

"Huh? Milord, can we eat the food made by the court cook..." "That's right..."

"Lilith, are you sure?

"Oh, I don't mind. Sambaku?

"If that's what Her Highness says."

The chef thanked deeply. The permitted beasts jumped into the curry.

"Uhhh! This smells like spices." "That smells good."

And I'll try it. The fragrance is strong because of freshly made spices.

Curry can't eat bells, so I'll open the can of birds and cats. There are rats in the item BOX like piles, but I cannot eat them because I used poison.

"Certainly, the scent of the spice is bright. It's been a long time since I made my spices."

Besides, it's a mass-product. If the spices gather in the royal palace, they are only first-class products.

"Of course. Sambak, is this a new specialty of the castle?

"Yes, Your Highness."

"There's no way you can see the noble faces again."

Apparently the royal family enjoys teasing the nobles.

"What about Anemone and Primula?

"It's delicious! Kenichi's is also delicious, but this is also delicious!

"That's right. Perhaps the price of the spice that I'm using is just enough to make my eyes pop out...."

"You're pretty sharp. I also used a lot of very precious spices."

The chef's eyes sparkle - that's the royal palace.

"Well then, I'm not going to let this get popular in the city....."

In the first place, there is a spice syndicate in King's Landing, and only the rich can use spices.

"Kenichi, do you still have the meat soup that your concubine ate yesterday?

"Yes, thank you...."

"Let this sambak eat you."

When the item BOX is served in a pot with beef stew, it is placed on a plate and given to the chef.

Then the man ate a sip with a spoon and shouted with surprise.

"This is delicious. What richness and flavor spreading into your mouth...."

"What do you say? It will be delicious inside."

"Hmm... it's full of meat and vegetables - flour and sauce and this acidity... I think it's vegetable or fruit acidity..."

I don't know the ingredients for beef stew either. I have read that I use ketchup for something, so the sourness may be ketchup.

However, since there seems to be no tomato in this world, we will have to substitute it with other fruits or vegetables.

But if you can copy the curry, maybe the demi-glace sauce is fine.

As she talks about it, the princess replaces the curry one after another. Buy extra rice and have Annemone warm it up.

"So, Sambak. You think I can cook the same thing?

"Probably...."

"Alright, add the dish to the table. Shh shh shh."

"Haha!

Bye, Kenichi.

"Why not?

"Is there any food in their BOX that you don't think can be reproduced in Sunbak?

What? I'll tell you that again.

"Dear Lilith, That's a very mean hope again."

"I always say that there is no food that this person can't cook, but because"

What are you going to do if this talented person quits because of that?

Well, if the Imperial decree says don't quit. I guess we'll have to follow that.

I bought chocolate from Shangri-La after a while.

It is made of famous Go-iva and costs 5400 yen for 20 pieces. When I pressed the purchase button, the gold box fell off.

"What's that?

The princess sparkled her eyes in a golden box that appeared in front of her.

"This is for post-meal treats, please."

When I open the lid, there are various shapes of chocolate lined up in a squarely divided space.

"What?! Sweets! Wait for me! Because I'm going to eat this."

She was a princess desperately eating curry, but the cooks who saw it looked complicated.

Listening to their whispers, it seems that they don't always eat this delicious food.

That's why the princess doesn't appreciate the usual food we cook? That's what I thought.

When the princess who had finished eating the curry put a spoon, the maid who rushed over wiped around the princess's mouth.

I've never seen this before.

When the princess picked the chocolate in the center of the box with her fingers, she threw it into her mouth. Looks like you know where to take the box.

"Nnnh-oh, sweet! And the richness and sweetness melt on your tongue! What the hell is this made of?

The princess opens her eyes and rolls the chocolate over her tongue.

"The nuts of plants, the oils of plants, the ingredients of milk, the sugar -- unfortunately, it's not something I made."

Nh!

When the princess threw another piece of chocolate into her mouth, she threw the box in front of the chef.

And he picks one and carries it to his mouth.

"Here, what is this, deep sweetness and taste... it is quite painful, but does it produce deep richness? But I can't imagine the ingredients in my head at all....."

The chef turned down while sweating.

"What do you say? Do you think we can make the same thing?

"That sounds like a pretty harsh question....."

"Really? Sambaku?"

"No, it's my job to cook for a court cook and royalty - but...."

"I think the chef is worried about the ingredients of confectionery because he uses ingredients that don't exist in this country."

"Well then, if there is nothing similar to our country, then there could be something like that."

"Kuku... I have to say, my princess, it is difficult to make the same kind of thing now."

"Haha, is there something that can't be made by anyone else?"

The other cooks behaved like chocolate, but everyone just tipped their necks.

That's right. It's an unknown sweet.

The princess sounds kind of fun, but it's mean enough already.

When I saw the cooks who were seriously worried, I felt a little sorry for them, so I got something called a cacaonib in Shangri-La as a hint.

Something in the paper bag fell, but it seems to have crushed the cocoa fruit.

"This nut is the raw material. Very nutritious and used as medicine."

The cook took the cocoa out of the paper bag and put it in his mouth.

"Well, it's bitter on its own - but it has a crisp texture and richness. Sublimating it to such refined confectionery is not the only one who created it."

I wonder who made the chocolate. I've never heard of it. I read some stories that seemed to have been drunk by some First Nation.

If the chefs didn't form a circle, the meeting would have started.

"Kenichi! I want to eat too! - Me too.

Anemone and Primura are asking for chocolate.

Buy a smaller box of chocolate from the same go-iva. The princess murmured in the golden box that reappeared.

"Is this box paper? Did you put gold leaf on it? This will be too elaborate in the box of confectionery."

"Aren't you pleased with the royal nobility?

"That's right... but there are a lot of people who want this box."

"Fuaaa, it's sweet and delicious..." "What a sensual aroma and sweetness - even a single grain will make you captive to this sweet."

I'll also serve the chocolate to the beasts who were watching.

"Huh? I don't need it, sir."

"What's wrong? You smell like shit?

"That's not true... if I eat any more delicious food, I'll never be able to leave my husband..."

"Uyah ~ Does Lord Tiger intend to leave Kenichi's place? I'll take care of the rest."

Murray put his hand on one of the chocolates.

"Nobody said that!

"Uhhhh! Sweet, delicious, sweet and delicious!

Repeating the same thing, is there not enough vocabulary?

But suddenly the chocolate-eating mullet hugged me.

"Hey, Murray, wait a minute! Because it's public!

"Kurosuke, what are you doing in front of me?!

"It's none of his business to get out."

"Nobody said that!

That's what Nyamena said. She threw the chocolate I gave her into her mouth.

"... it's definitely sweet, delicious, sweet and delicious... goddamn it - if this is a reward, you're going to hear everything my husband says."

"Why is that?

The princess, who was watching me and the beasts get tangled up, laughed.

"Hahaha, indeed. This is not a dangerous confection. The noble ladies attached to this flavour may open their crotches to the desire for confectionery."

"Ah, Lilith. Tell me that story from the royal mouth."

"Isn't that enough to think about? If Sambaku does not succeed in replicating, will it be the only item in his BOX that has this puzzling confectionery?

"That's right. Well, as for the royal palaces, other nobles won't be able to do it."

Besides, the Royal Palace cooks seem to have excellent abilities. If we get the ingredients, we might make a copy surprisingly quickly.

"I see... for now, I'll buy this confectionery and a sample of its ingredients, how much?"

"Hmm, three gold coins with ingredients (600,000 yen)?"

"Quite a look at your feet... but I can't get anywhere else. All right, I'll pay you and send you."

"Thank you."

Nyamena was surprised to hear this conversation.

"I ate gold coins in my confectionery... this is outrageous..."

It's literally a mountain-blown confectionery.

"I can't go back anymore./(exp, adv-to) (on-mim) haha/haha/haha/"

"This isn't funny, Kurosuke. Maybe it'll come out of my dreams forever...."

Was it that shocking?

But I remember seeing the chocolate-eating beasts.

Didn't the cat get chocolate? But because the beast was a man and not a cat - onions were fine.

I was worried, and I've been watching them for a while, but it doesn't seem to be a problem.

"This box contains 12 pieces, so there are 2 gold coins in total (400,000 yen) - 1 small square silver coin (15,000 yen) or more..."

Primura calculates the unit price and says it is bumpy. Anemone is happy, but the beasts have complex expressions.

Is it too divergent from reality?

"Kenichi, leave them alone. What happened to the rat?

"It's in the item BOX - do you see it after a delicious meal?

"It's inevitable, I have to check and pay for it."

"I understand."

I took out a sack of rats from item BOX. There are 14 bags of mice in bread - five giant mice.

"Yaaa!

The maids watching scream.

"I wonder if all of this was underground..."

"It's still there, so I'm going to dive again tomorrow."

"Mmm... the top is beautiful, but the bottom is full of rats - it really symbolizes my castle"

"Fear abounds, Your Highness - you seem to be discarding garbage in the basement, but should we modify it? Rats mediate many plagues. I wonder if this number of rats will increase the likelihood that the plague will become a castle...."

"Exactly, that's right. Isn't the kitchen the one that's taking out the garbage? It's San Baku."

"Haha!

From what I've heard - the hundreds of castle guards and the Knights' kitchen all dumped garbage in the basement.

Well, if we do that, we'll have more rats. Cracker of course.

On the contrary, no matter how much garbage you throw away, it won't overflow, so I thought it would be convenient.

I can't believe it!

I remembered what I saw on the Internet about the well where the body was gone.

If a man kills and throws a corpse into a well, it'll be gone before long.

Finally, if I killed Uzaki's mother and threw her into the well, there would always be a body left behind.

Besides, we have to figure out how to treat raw waste on the ground so that we don't have any more rats.

I have proposed to His Highness a method of mixing soil and sawdust into compost.

"What? Fertilizer."

"Yes, may I use that fertilizer to make flower beds in the castle and fields in the backyard? That way you can use fresh vegetables for cooking."

"I see - there's room for reflection. Still, 7 gold coins (1.4 million yen) in mice, 5 gold coins (1 million yen) in giant mice, 12 gold coins (2.4 million yen) in total - it was expensive."

"There are still rats."

"In his opinion, how much longer?"

"300 to 400 mice, I don't know anything about big mice."

"What do you mean...."

The maids gathered under the princess discussing the future.

"Princess - Should I ask what I was talking about yesterday?

"What, do you want me to ask you for a myth you don't even know?

"But... there's definitely something going on." "I think so too..." "I always feel like I'm being watched by something..."

What the hell are you talking about?

"Lilith, what are you talking about?

"Ah - I'm sorry, but don't laugh at me. The maids and the others also claim to be possessed by something in the castle."

"Haha, it's about the ghost and lace we were talking about yesterday. Certainly, there are signs that the Beasts are saying something...."

I see.

"Now, after we've cleared the rat, can we talk about it again?

Hmm! Please.

The cooks who were listening in the back also bothered to talk. They also often feel signs of something...

"But neither I nor Anemone have the magic of demonization (turn-and-dead) or purification."

"Husband, that kind of magic can only be used by special people."

I tried to guess, but there really seems to be such magic. But there are not many people who can use it.

Well, we'll think about that later.

------◇◇◇------

--And the next day. We dived underground again and recovered seven bags of rat carcasses and two giant mice.

I didn't count the exact number, but I got an extra 5 gold coins and 2 silver. 17 gold coins and 2 silver coins in total.

Give the princess a reward.

"Hahaha, Your Highness, it is an honor to give you yourself."

Um, this time it was a cause.

When divided into four people, it is four gold coins (800,000 yen), one silver coin (50,000 yen) and five small square silver coins (25,000 yen).

"And, Lilith. This massive number of mice is not going to work."

"This is too much to dispose of."

"Should I leave my item in BOX and dump it somewhere deep in the woods?

"You can do it, I appreciate it."

--while throwing it in the trash can on the status screen. I used poison to finish it off, so if this goes to the market or other animals eat it, it will be bad.

It would be best to throw it in the trash. And the distribution of the money to the three people who helped me this time is over.

"Even though my husband has a lot to share." "That's right."

"That's not going to happen - so everyone can put it in my BOX."

"Fine. That's the safest part." "Nice." "Yeah."

Carrying gold coins is easy to target. And when they find out you have money, more people follow you.

"But when you get back to Astrantia, you should leave it with the guild. Item BOX won't be able to be retrieved if I die."

"Hahaha, that's the time."

"We have a whole lot of money left in the guild."

"I don't usually spend money at my husband's place. You can eat delicious rice and drink alcohol. Besides, we have to supply weapons."

That's right ~

I'm glad we got rid of the rats without any trouble.

But I think it would have been pretty tough if ordinary people had gone inside.
