Chapter 227: I Trial-and-Error to Grill the Fish

"Nya."

Owah. That startled me. There’s an upside-down face at the entrance of the hut. Apparently Mī was peeking from the roof.

Mī spun around with a kurun and jumped down.

Then Mū also jumped down.

"Nya."

Then Shiro also jumped down. As expected, everyone is light on their feet.

Mī is staring at the fish I hold, her eyes sparkling.

"Looks delicious nya."

Ah, right. Cat girls also have good noses. Did they notice the smell of the fish?

"We were just talking about how to eat it."

"Leave it to Mī nya!"

"Eh?"

"Nyasaharu, come outside a bit nya!"

"Nn? Ah. Got it."

Mī beckoned with her large cat hands so I followed.

"This is good nya."

Mī picked up leftover lumber that had been placed beside the hut.

It’s a board of a size I had been thinking of using as a cutting board.

"Put the fish here nya."

"Ah nya."

I did as told.

"Hold the board nya."

"Got it nya. Is this okay nya?"

"Humans say nya nya."

"Sorry nya. I just wanted to say it nya."

"Nyaa!"

Shupin!

Mī extended claws sharp like knives from the tips of her fluffy fur fingers.

"Nyanyanya!"

Pipipipi!

When Mī moved her hands quickly over the fish, something sparkling fell to the ground.

Ah. Right. She’s removing the scales.

After Mī moved her hands back and forth several times, eventually the scales seemed to have been cleanly removed and nothing new fell.

"And then, like this nya!"

Shupiin!

Parapara para.

"Ah! Sashimi!"

"Delicious nyaa!"

About the head-side half of the left half of the fish has been cut at exactly the intervals of the claws and become like sashimi.

Mī stabbed a piece of sashimi with her claw and ate it.

"Nyaa."

"Nyaa."

Mū and Shiro also began eating the sashimi.

Hyoi paku, hyoi paku, they’re saying nyaa nyaa while looking delicious.

I also want to eat but because I’m holding the board with the fish on it I can’t use my hands.

"Aan!"

I opened my mouth and appealed, but Mī in front ignored me.

"Aan!"

I also appealed to Mū, but Mū hid behind Mī.

"Aan!!"

When I appealed to Shiro, at last my wish was granted.

"Nyaa."

Shiro stabbed one piece of sashimi with her claw and held it out in front of my mouth.

Paku.

Nn. Delicious.

But what is this taste.

It’s that fish of unknown identity that seems like it would appear in the 1,000-yen lunch menu A "Chef’s choice nigiri 6 pieces · mini soba · simmered fish" at a non-rotating sushi restaurant in a port town.

Clearly not a standard topping that goes into the packaged sushi I usually ate. It feels like a white-fleshed fish, but when you’re busy at lunchtime you hesitate to ask the staff and in the end you finish without knowing what fish it is—that fish’s taste.

Mī Mū Shiro are munching away.

I also had Shiro do "aan" for me one more time.

Yeah. As I thought, it’s the taste of that mysterious fish that doesn’t go into supermarket packaged sushi, doesn’t go into the takeout tub ordered when going to grandpa’s house, and you only encounter it on reasonably priced lunch menus.

Ah. I want soy sauce.

But I don’t know how to make soy sauce.

"Masaharu-san. You can eat raw fish so readily..."

"Nn?"

Esty-san only watches our situation and doesn’t try to touch the fish at all.

Rafilia-san is also just watching.

Ah. Right. There’s no food culture of eating raw fish.

Troublesome. In the end we have no choice but to grill it.

"Nn. Shall I put the fish somewhere, fire fire magic from a really distant position, and gradually adjust the distance?"

"With that, you won’t be able to confirm whether the heat has gone through from Masaharu-san’s position, right? It’s also hard for other people to check. ...I’ll try a little whether I can produce fire. Somehow I feel like I can do it."

Popon.

Esty-san became three tails.

"Um... Please at about the firepower that can defeat a slime. Fireball. Ei."

Pou.

Ooh. A watermelon-sized fireball appeared at the tip of Esty-san’s hand and flew with a poon.

It fell about 100 meters ahead in the empty wasteland and disappeared.

"Hoaah. It really worked."

"That just now is good. Then shall I stand beside Esty-san, run at the same speed as the magic, grill the fish and come back, and repeat that several times?"

"Won’t that become an incredibly large number of times?"

"But there isn’t any other good method... Or rather, shall I hold the fish naked so you can keep firing fire magic at my back? Because my magic defense is higher than the fish’s, I think there’s a distance or magic power that will just right grill only the fish."

"Even if there is, firing magic at a person is scary..."

I see.

Well, previously I burned my own pubic hair with my own flame... If my hair also gets burned it’ll be a bit painful, so let’s stop the plan of burning me and also grilling the fish.

What should we do.

While we were worrying, Iria came out of the hut.

"What’s been going on since earlier?"

"There’s fish but it’s too big... There’s no suitable wire mesh so we can’t grill it."

"Nn? Just stick it on a skewer and grill it."

"The fish is this big. The skewer would break, and it can’t be hung on the hook hanging from the ceiling either."

"Just prepare a thick and long skewer."

"Eh?"

"If you shave down the end of the board Masaharu is holding, it’ll become a just-right skewer, right?"

"...!"

Th-That’s right. Because I have the impression of dango or kushi-katsu, when I think of a skewer only thin and short ones come to mind, but there are also thick and long skewers.

"I-I never even thought such a method existed."

"Why... If there are only thin skewers, you could just cut the fish finely... Conversely, I’m curious what methods you were thinking of..."

"Having Esty-san fire fire magic and me holding the fish and running parallel with the fire... Or me holding the fish and having fire magic fired at my back..."

"The one who comes up with such methods is the strange one. With the travel-experienced Esty here, why would it become like that..."

"Sorry, I just carelessly."

Apparently because we can use magic we conversely made things more complicated in our thinking.

We had Iria cut a thick skewer, stuck the fish on it, and decided to grill it normally on the stove.

Because it will take time until it’s grilled, I decided to go check the completion status of the other huts.

"Then, Elf-san, Esty-san, please handle the air conditioning nicely."

"Haai."

"Yes. Leave it to us."

Using a high elf and a nine-tailed fox for sending wind to the stove and indoor ventilation feels somehow luxurious. But because it’s a hut in a medieval fantasy world that uses fire indoors, it can’t be helped. There’s no window and no ventilation equipment, so if you burn wood indoors it immediately becomes smoky.

After promising Iria I would send her to Margolant Castle later, I left the hut.

"Then, Mī, Mū, Shiro. Show me your hut!"

"Leave it to us nya! Look and be surprised nya!"

Mī walked energetically with her tail swishing.

I followed behind. Behind me is Shiro. Further behind is Mū.

Because cat girls are just naked with body hair growing, if I stare hard at their butts can I see their anuses?

The length of the hair is uniform; it only looks like they’re wearing yarn school swimsuits.

I wonder what the touch feels like. Would they get angry if I touch without permission?

How is the hair around the anus?

While observing their butts thinking such things, we apparently arrived and Mī stopped.

"How is it nya! Nyasaharu! Look nya!"

"Th-This is... Just boards for claw-sharpening placed there... nya."

"This angle is very easy to sharpen claws nya."

"I see... It looks like a good angle for making dried fish... Yeah. If we can catch a lot of fish, making dried fish and going to sell them is also an option. No, before selling I want to stockpile for winter."

I can only come up with impressions that don’t sound like impressions of a house.

"Well, nights are cold so it’s better to sleep with everyone, and you should come to our hut."

"Got it nya."

"See you."

Well then, the capybara girls’ hut is...

Because we all built huts in a not particularly wide range, I can immediately tell that there is some building or rather object at the capybara girls’ construction site.

But it’s clearly not a hut...

"Just what is this..."

It looks familiar.

Don’t tell me...
