Elf Tensei Kara no Cheat Kenkoku-ki

Hot, very hot. Remember how hard it is to sleep and open your eyes.

There is something warm and soft tangled between both hands and feet.

"With that said, you worked all night last night and couldn't get home"

I woke up in the workshop I was renting to Firefox. The time to collect specialties to get foreign currency was sooner than planned, and I was in a hurry to make the tools for it.

Somehow, I was ready by last night, but it was late to get home. I tried to sleep in the next workshop, but these kids keep me here.

Brother Cyril.

"Clo, Brother Cyril's ears, are mumbling"

"Brother Cyril's wife in five hundred and seventy-three days."

Chemin, Cro and Yukino, young fire foxes, fall asleep easily as they hug me with the same blanket as I do, occasionally leaking their sleeping remarks. Forgive me for being so cute.

The other fire foxes were sweet to your words because it seems like a man can't resist sleeping in this house. Workshop two is too cold to sleep at night. I succumbed to the temptation of this workshop, which was kept temperate by the properties of the Firefoxes, and to the plea of my lovely little sister.

When I looked outside, the night was beginning to dawn.

Some people start to wake up.

I guess I woke up earlier than usual today because I'm telling everyone else I'll ask for another job, leaving only the minimum number of people needed to take care of the goats early in the morning.

"Good morning. Cyril."

Ku had just woken up and had begun to get himself ready. Yesterday you worked the slowest side by side with me, but you're doing fine. There will be tiredness of training.

"Morning, Ku."

"Did you sleep well yesterday?

"Oh, it can be warm here. And there's a comfortable pillow."

I grinned bitterly as I stroked the heads of the three people holding me.

"You really like Cyril, don't you? I'll go to Workshop II first and warm up the room, so Cyril, wake those kids up before you come."

"Always bad."

"If it's for Cyril, that's about it."

That's what Kuw said and disappeared.

If I were here, all the Firefoxes wouldn't be able to get dressed, and I'd be resistant to getting dressed here myself. So I'm going to get dressed in Workshop II, but Workshop II without people is dying cold. So Ku goes first and keeps it warm.

That'll make me feel better.

"And we're all beautiful after all."

Three for my sister, glancing at her sleeping face as she followed that cheek.

It's my theory that if you remove makeup, close your eyes, and you're still beautiful, it's real, but they're all really cute. It's going to be a prank.

Wouldn't it be nice to put your fingers in? For cute fox ears. I was concerned about the structure because there was white hair growing from the inside and I couldn't see the inside. You might find out if you put your finger in it.

I woke the three of them gently by shaking off such an evil spirit.

◇

I'll get myself in the next workshop and then go outside. It's cold as a sting on my skin, but it's getting a lot better than it was at one time. Winter is finally coming to an end. No more snow. All we have to do is wait for the snow to melt down.

I stood in front of a vast water bottle made by the Firefoxes and thought.

The ability of the Iraqsa crew is approaching the level I seek. The Hell's Snow Mountain Cage Mountain Mountain Mountain Mountain Mountain just five days of cookies that crossed Ku and Yukino had also been successfully completed. There's no art just caging in the mountains, so I harassed them a lot, which also made me get over it beautifully.

Recently, he's also given a hurdle to practice rapid fire, clearing seven of his ten sets at over 70%, but still no shepherds have come out in the last two weeks.

Iraq's training involves rapid firing at first thing in the morning, followed by training for increased patience, followed by a three-hour long run using [physical strengthening] on a snow mountain carrying 20 kg of luggage, and finally repeating something called tapping into various, highly specialized collaborations.

A test to give you patience......, wait on your stomach for about two hours, and the training of shooting down a ball of light about 40 km/h made by magic because it only passes 200 m away once also makes us all succeed as normal nowadays.

Unsurprisingly, this is difficult. I don't know when I'm coming, so I'm forced to concentrate all the time, and my nerves go away. And if you distract yourself, the sphere of light quickly passes and fails.

Firstly, it is difficult even in normal times to have to end a small, moving target with a single blow from a distance. And it was also giving me difficulty to be putting out a sphere of light for a moment when I was out of focus.

At first, nothing to clear inside appeared, but when Lucier and Loreau were able to do it first, successful people began to appear to follow it. We must have been giving each other some advice.

Truth be told, the trick of this is to keep a part of your consciousness casually oriented without much concentration rather than sustaining concentration. And it's about being able to react properly even in that state.

If you really concentrate, you don't have an hour to concentrate. Focus out of strength. It is a sine qua non for snipers to acquire such a contradictory feeling, and everyone in Iraq remembers it with their bodies.

Basic skills are acquired, so the rest of the time can be considered an adjustment period.

"Cyril, wait?

Before I think, the faces of the elves, including Lucier, appear. He was speaking out to energetic elves, including Irraxa.

Irakusa's face has become a rule that focuses on training and doesn't work, but it's special today. I have a little more manpower.

He had been entrusted with a special task, leaving with a small task force, and all but four of the Iraqsa had come, who were not in Elsier.

"No, we still have time. The Firefoxes will be here soon, so we'll be able to leave as planned."

"Cyril said today, it's a specialty that earns foreign currency, and you're going to collect amazing things that will be ingredients for alcohol, right?

Lucier asked with her eyes shining. I can't help but wonder because I've been keeping it a secret.

"That's right. There's one in the nearby mountains. I've been looking forward to it, too. This is the only time I can take it. It's great."

"I knew you wouldn't tell me,"

"Of course, it's a pleasure to follow."

Lucier drops his shoulder disappointingly.

Well, nothing's wrong with my mouth, but I pulled this far. Let them be patient until they see the real thing.

"Brother Cyril!

The Firefoxes also come out of nowhere when they are ready. As usual, I'm gonna stroke your head because three of my sisters are gonna hug me and sweeten me.

He was grinning when he felt his gaze and looked more at Lucier. Good, these kids don't seem to be eligible for jealousy. Lucier is also letting three young and cute fire foxes loosen their cheeks. She stroked her head so hard, she even swept her tail off.

"Cyril, thank you for waiting. Firefox is ready."

"Roger, let's go. It's cold and heavy and I know it's hard, but let's do our best."

"" "Whoa!!

Make sure you get a healthy response to my query, and we'll share the water bottle, and the tip I made, branched into five pieces, and the hose with the pointy metal barrel. The hose is made using something that has been processed to clean the bowels of the sea lions and prevent them from rotting.

After all, one hundred and forty water bottles have been made by today. Forty more than I was asking for.

All the Firefoxes worked well for me.

lifted the water bottle by himself, and those who were not, one for two, and those who were impotent, held the hose, and walked out toward the mountain near the village, where Caede was dense among them.

◇

It's still a tough season for the cold, but the fire foxes are warming their surroundings and keeping the elves from letting their warm air escape, so they can climb the mountain quite comfortably.

Because of this, I still regret that for the five days I went against the face of Ilaxa, the snow cage in Hell has become quite difficult.

"Come on, I got it. Everybody in front of Caede, put the water bottle down. At least 5 m away from the adjacent water bottle"

Everyone leaves the water bottle on the ground at my behest. And about one in three, I gave him a 40cm iron stick and a pointy giant needle...... a cone Kiriki.

"Collect sap from trunk trees that are thicker than the stick you gave them. Use this for that."

Take out one of the hoses that I brought, with a metal cylinder on the tip branched into five pieces.

Since the quality and quantity of sap is poor when the trunk is a young tree with a diameter of less than or equal to 40 cm, and is not good for trees, iron bars of 40 cm were prepared.

"Use the cone" Kiri "I gave you first to drill a hole in the trunk. As I said earlier, it has to be Caede with thicker trunks than iron bars. Use your strength to stab the cone" Kiriki "into the trunk. The cone shall be stabbed firmly to the point where it is marked because it is marked"

That's what I say, I spin the cone around and plug it into the back. Then, about seven centimeters pierced, the mark on the root of the cone and the surface of the trunk touch.

"This is how I drilled the hole, this time plugging in the tip of the hose"

Insert one of the tips with a barrel of metal attached to the five parts of the hose into a hole drilled with a cone. Then I couldn't fit out perfectly. This is a cylinder made to fit the size of the cone, so naturally.

"I have quite a bit of room in the length for the hose, so with the same procedure for the remaining four, if you drill a hole in the trunk of Caede, stab the tip of the hose, and then put the root of the hose inside the water bottle, the installation is over.

For about five days, if left alone, there will be between 30 and 40 litres of sap per tree. This is the specialty of our village, the sweet, delicious syrup that makes the liquor ingredient, the maple syrup ingredient. "

Sugar cane, major sweetness after sugar radish, maple syrup. That's what I've been waiting for.

If it's just flavor, it's better than sugar cane, sugar radish, I think.

Caede around Elsier... it was also a delight when I realized it was native to a variety close to Sutto Caede where sap could be taken in sweet quantities.

"Long, how good is a tree sap like this?

"It's incredibly elegant and refined sweetness. Sugar is so luxurious that it cannot be compared. Besides, it's very nutritious, it just makes me feel better, and it's very cosmetic."

Maple syrup feels perfectly sweet, but doesn't disappear without its sweetness remaining.

Tons of mineral potassium polyphonols and I was wondering if something good for my skin would still be in this, and yet less than half the calories are sugar...... Less calories are negative for Elsier, but it was treated as a pretty fancy item on the planet.

"Oh, come on, really."

That's what Loreau said, pompous on the water bottle, and his fingers tickled and licked the sap that had fallen off one or two.

"I do feel sweet if you ask me, but not enough stuff at all"

"Well, I guess so."

"Chief, you said it was good."

"Licking the sap just like that doesn't taste good, I need a lot of work. Kuw, give me a hand with this."

"Yes, what should I do?

"Wait a minute, I'll get ready for this one"

That's what I say, I take out the little cup I was making for when someone showed up to say this. And when I was gutsy and pouty, I received a drop by drop of Shizuku, and waited about five minutes for the sap to accumulate about 100 ml.

"Ku, warm this up to just before it boils. Until you say I'm good."

"It's cheap."

With the power of Qu, the sap of Caed is warmed up. And the moisture turned to water vapor and disappeared, and the sap, which was colorless and transparent, became more and more golden.

It's quicker to bring it to a boil, but that way the flavor, the umami and the nutrition die.

"Thank you. That's enough."

"You're almost gone"

The sap, which had 100 ml, had reached just about two or three picks.

I can't help but concentrate the sap about forty times more because it's the standard way to make maple syrup.

"Loreau, lick this one. It's a stewed sap. The sap Loreu licked earlier is just raw material. This is Elsier's specialty maple syrup."

Don't hesitate.

Loreau sticks his finger in the cup.

The sap that has been exposed has now become a snug syrup with a higher viscosity. Pull tangled thread on Loreu's finger.

As Loreau puts his fingers in his mouth, he opens his eyes to surprise.

"Sweet! Ugh! Enough already!

I try to snuggle syrup with my fingers over and over again with the bottom of the cup, saying things I'm not sure about, and still desperately stretch my tongue out to lick it.

I lose my voice around you to being too clumsy.

"As you can see, it's good enough for a big man to lose me. That's why it's gonna be gold, and our table's gonna be rich."

When I said that, Loreau turned his face bright red when I returned it. It's not cute when a man reacts like that.

The sweetness of this continent is invaluable. Even in cold areas like sugar radishes no raw sugar ingredients have been discovered, which are expensive as fools because they rely on imports of sugar cane as a raw material from warm continents.

Unimproved varieties of fruit are just too sour and not sweet enough. Against that background, people asked for honey as a sweetness. As a result, the nest was randomly captured without thought and the number of bees was greatly reduced, honey was rarely available and the source of sweetness was almost gone.

The price I looked up when I went to the commercial city of Erin was one gold coin for 500g of sugar (60,000 yen). Still, it sold to fly. Maple syrup would probably sell for the same price if it were packed in 500ml a bottle.

"But Cyril, wouldn't you have taken it whenever it was this tree sap? Did you have to wait all the way to the end of winter?

"Lucier, you noticed a good point. If you don't take it this time of year, the sweetness is weak. Caede continues to raise the sugar content of the sap by using the nutrients she simmers in during the fall to survive the winter cold. And at the end of winter, the sugar-given sap is spread all over the body to feed the growth.

If we don't cross the winter cold, the sap won't sweeten. And if the sweetened sap isn't in season all over your body, this is how you can't stray it. "

And sweet sap doesn't run all over your body forever.

I run out of that sugar right away.

"And isn't it really rare when you can take delicious sap?

"Yeah, if it's this year's climate, it's only three weeks."

"Only three weeks a year...... you're so extravagant. But Cyril said 40L in five days from one tree, right? If we can collect sap for three weeks, we can collect about 160L."

"Unfortunately, 40L is the limit from one tree. If you take more than that, you could damage the tree and wither away. Collect the sap of another tree after five days.

You can't miss this little opportunity. So let's all get ready to collect quickly. I need to fill up all the water bottles I brought today and take the next one. "

With my hanging voice, everyone starts working.

He complained with his gaze that he wanted to try it too, but that's fun in five days.

In those days, the water bottle I installed today would be filled with sap.

The work itself was completed in about three hours.

The root of the hose is placed in all the water bottles and the tip of the hose is pierced by the trees. And then we're done surrounding this area with barbed wire to keep animals from coming in that would break the water bottle.

The work, too, was done by Iraksa's face.

"Looking forward to it. The delicious things that Mr. Loreau is obsessed with are filled with water bottles that we can pick, so we can't eat them anymore, and we can't sell them out."

Ku, who finished cleaning up, smiled and called out to me.

"Actually, it's not. Earlier, I had Qu fly the water, because I need 40L of sap to make 1L of syrup, and even such a large water bottle can only get up to 4-5L. We've got a hundred and forty water bottles, so it's working and it's 700L. I guess if I split this up with all the Elsiers, I'd be alone, a little bit with 2L. Think of it as 3L in a year, and you don't feel like it's enough at all, do you?

Maple syrup can only be collected for three weeks of the year and can only be collected 1L considering everything from a single tree to boiling. What a luxurious item.

2L per person It is a little uncomfortable for everyday use. For sale, selling 700L in 500mL units would be a pretty tasty business for a thousand and four hundred gold coins (eighty four million yen).

If we succeed, we can get Elsier's year-long food with that money alone.

And the advantage of maple syrup is that it's hard to get chased back.

Even if something emerges that you realize is derived from Kaede because of the smell of maple syrup and try to imitate it, you're a year away from being collectible. By then he would have failed many times by trial and error and would have thrown it out during the collection season.

"But the fact that we have three weeks means we can collect it in five days, and we can collect it three more times, right? Then one, it's 10L. That's all I need."

"Right. That would be if I could do my job and collect it safely. Because we prioritize the acquisition of foreign currency, if we get a small amount, we may not have enough to eat or drink in Elsier, only to secure foreign currency acquisition."

I want to secure at least 1000L for sale. Our share starts with that.

"I'll do my best! If it was to eat something sweet, I'd do anything."

"That's the intention. That's what we've all come together to do, and I guess that's it for today."

Irraxa's face returned after straining the barbed wire. Everyone else is watching and chatting about the sap of Caede falling slowly with the potatoes.

"Attention, everyone. Thanks for today. Thanks to this, the work went smoothly. And then if we wait about five days, the water bottle will be full of sap."

When I looked around, I could see certain common emotions.

... Just give us a little maple syrup.

"I want to see Loreu's shaved and everyone wants to try maple syrup. I know you think so.... but bear with me."

In my words, everyone looks blatantly disappointed.

Anyway, it takes a while to prepare this number of people.

Besides, I need you to stay motivated for the next task properly.

"Of course, I won't tell you to be patient forever. Five days later, I come to collect the sap accumulated here and replace the hose with another tree. We'll have a treat then. Guys, bring me some bread! I'll put plenty of sweet syrup on it for you."

The moment I say that, everyone's discouraged expression turns to something bright at once. Decent sweetness has probably not experienced anything other than the lucier I had donuts before this.

Loreau is sweet! That's enough to scream. Everyone will be intrigued.

"Brother Cyril! It's a question."

Krone, the black fire fox, raised her tiny hand full and inquired.

"What is it, Klone?

"Don't you have to bring one loaf of bread?

Krone is waiting for my reply, waving her tail to her expectations.

I was worried. The Firefoxes have less wheat in their hands and eat potatoes and barley on a daily basis. There's no way I can prepare two pieces of bread for one meal. I'm sure this kid will be able to apply syrup to two loaves of bread if he pulls out the rice from the day before.

The situation of having invented your own and yet put up with the rice should lift your sense of well-being. I'm sure it gives you the cutest smile. I really want to see it.

But if you serve OK here, if you suck, it's not two places, skipping dinner for a few days, but this kid could secure multiple pieces of bread. I don't have a bottom for the passion I put on the girl's sweet stuff. Doing that will negatively affect the growth of young girls.

Even if I know that, I can't betray my gaze full of expectations for my pretty little sister.

"If it's up to two, it's okay. No more."

I compromise a lot and decide that a meal or so is okay.

"Okay. Brother Cyril."

Krone thanks him for saying the secret he came up with to Yellow Fox Chemin and Silver Fox Yukino with a doorface, while putting up a completely ungrown chest.

And two such cronets, smiling, shuddering and praising. It's a very smiling sight. My expression makes me cordial.

"Now we're disbanded today. Guys, give me another hand in the early morning in five days."

When I say dissolve, everyone starts making noise on the spot, or not.

Everyone, I'm sure you'll spend the last five days in peace.

The scene broke up with expectations for something sweet on my chest.

"Well, it's time for a letter. I wonder if the scouts are working hard."

I look up into the sky.

Then one big pigeon with pieces of paper tied to his legs in good time...... one of the six I grew up with during the winter was just flying towards the pigeon hut.

It wasn't just the scouts, the special forces were doing their best, and I was relieved.
