Three days after the volcanic eruption, the two of us came to the bottom of the crater again.

Temperatures are naturally higher than elsewhere, but still do not feel the intense, zillingly scorching heat of the skin until a few days ago.

And a peek at the gushing bottom of the lava greatly reduced its calluses, and the surface only pulsed quietly.

"Yeah, isn't this going to be okay now?

"Is it because I was forced to erupt, after all?

"I think so. I forced a natural phenomenon that wouldn't have happened, and for a while, the mountain might have faded."

I see.

I have concerns about the temperature and discharge of the hot spring, but can I see that I am no longer worried about a new eruption?

I confirmed it and left the volcano behind.

Return to the city and ask Lue to return to the Inn first. I will report to the Alliance.

This progress study is a formal request from the Alliance, and what an oink the client is.

Apparently, this city is a place cherished by the person who was the descendant of the former liberator, Mr. Iguzou Yoshida, who, through his guild, is protecting and propelling his development?

He says his descendant, 'Il Yoshida', is one of the senators on this continent and is cordial with Oink.

I report directly to Oink through the communications device.

"They don't have to worry about a re-eruption, even in Lue's view. But it's called dungeonization, it's called this forced eruption, it doesn't seem like a coincidence."

'That's it, but I'd like to let Bomb know a few things. One thing about Minds Valley, remember?

"Oh, of course I remember. How was your investigation of that abandoned mine?

'To put it only as a result, we saw a tendency to dungeon both abandoned mines that had undergone purification and abandoned mines that had undergone a flood of demons'

"... right"

'You're not too surprised, are you? Could it have been expected?

"No, but I was just wondering. I have a lot in common with this one and the Minds Valley thing, you know?

The flooding in Minds Valley was also an effect of dungeonization, he said.

In that case, the purification by me and Rhue would have stopped it.

The key to a dungeon clearance is to destroy the Lord of that dungeon. And this time, 'Phoenix' was its main focus.

And I knocked him down in an abandoned mine... no, maybe it was - like a nucleus before he became Lord. It's also extremely artificial.

'Common denominator, is it?... both of which were paired, was it?

"It's a shame, but it's a good line. I think it's probably a coincidence that I was there, considering what I was after, and I'm only in the way."

'The original aim...... is it?

"Well, why did I stay in this town for so long this time?

'... I see, you're a liberator. In Mines Valley, Len, and this time, Nao, you were there.'

"That's the thing. Maybe someone's pushing for a dungeon to raise the liberators."

And in the process, he's made a lot of sacrifices.

In Minds Valley, there's a bunch of demons, and this time there's lava.

Perhaps without us, there would have never been less sacrifice.

Why are you trying to raise and strengthen them that far?

We still don't know who the hell is doing it.

For example, I don't see how this volcano can be done in the hands of people, and above all, Nao, your line is visited after knowing in advance that there is a dungeon on this continent.

But there's definitely something behind it that I don't know.

That's all for sure.

'... should I, too, be on guard?

"Right. Just keep your guard around the ice fog forest for now. I've already defeated the Seven Stars."

'Oh, is that so? They say demons around the ice fog forest have been slowing down lately. They're also stable on the security side.'

"Heh, it's like the land that freed the seven stars"

I thought the Seven Stars were the mastermind.

Complete delusions, but like putting demons under control at the same time as being liberated.

And if you're not crusading the other way around, like when you were sealing it, you're going to lose something like the power that was leaking, and the demons are going to stop getting ferocious?

I figured I'd better knock him down instead of letting him go.

"... please don't crusade the seven-star semifinals by mistake...?

"I want to, but I figured it'd be a bad idea?

'You're a mess. It's the object of faith, and now it's sprinkling the continent with light that promises to be rich every year.'

"Well, it's troublesome for me to resent all the inhabitants of the continent, too, and I won't stand out and make a scene."

'I mean... you think it moves back?

"If you're going to be hostile"

Basically, I'm not letting you out of here unless you're hostile.

But, well, if it's going to be confirmed later that we're going to be hostile, then, well, somewhat?

"Oh, for once, keep an eye on Minds Valley and the humans who have visited this Achidal in the past. I might have planted something."

'Well, we've already done our research in Minds Valley, and we'll do people there,'

Copy that. Can we go around here this time?

'Oh, just one last thing. I've got an investigation into Reis, here too. If you follow in her footsteps, you still seem to be sure it was Arkham who was after her from the past to the present'

"Well, thank you for reporting. I picked mountain vegetables, so I'll split them up next time."

"Dongli! Do you have dongli!?

"You can't pick it at this time of year."

"Oh, no."

All right, I'm done reporting.

Then I guess it's time to go back to the inn.

Since that day, some hot springs facilities have come to offer bills that are closed.

When it comes to temporary eruptions, some of the facilities were flooded because of bursts, water leaks, and an explosive increase in the amount of hot water due to the sudden rise in water temperatures?

But if it's today, I can see where it's calmed down and reopened.

Our accommodation was able to bathe fine yesterday, and the water temperature can be maintained as usual by changing the structure of the water supply.

Generally no problem, you can tell I've solved it safely.

But if I were to raise one problem...

"What, Lue was pulled away again"

"Ah, welcome back, Mr. Kai. Yes, everyone who waited at the inn said that Lue would come back and say," Let the goddess eat her sweet vegetables. "

"That's very popular...... true"

Is it true that the Lyue stock continues to rise without knowing the ceiling?

Every day she is taken by the farmers to treat the vegetables picked in each household.

I also get some hemming, so when it comes to deliciousness, it's delicious, but that rue is getting tired.

Speaking of which, she used to eat dinner with all the farmers in the field before, is that why it's so easy to get hold of her?

But I'm in trouble if you don't come back by evening.

I'm planning on doing the last 'Boom Cooking' in this town today, so I need to ask her to join me.

And that also means fulfilling your promise to you, Nao.

"I'm telling you to refrain from eating out today, so I think you'll be back soon. I took care of the setup, so can you come back?

"No, I'll wait here a little longer. Nao, where are you guys now?

Nao, say goodbye to you guys today.

They're going straight to Endia, the first port town I got off on this continent, where I get on a boat, go around the outer perimeter of this continent, and then head to the opposite port town.

And then you plan to bypass the 'Sardis Continent' and take a boat directly to the 'Secondary Continent' and return home?

There will be festivals on this continent in the summer and fall, and I thought I should see them, but I still want to go back to the continent as soon as possible and see if my powers work.

... If he's going to free the seven stars, that would be good too.

But if the Seven Stars are still my enemies, then...

"Nao, you guys are training in the back mountains. He still can't handle his body movements because of rapid growth."

"Speaking of which, you said Rayce gave me a pair of opponents."

"Yeah. You still seem capable, but inexperienced. Besides, you seem to hesitate when you attack me."

"That's no choice. It's hard to raise your hand to a beauty. Nao, you're sweet, especially."

……

Don't hold hands silently, sometimes.

Recently, when you're praised, you've become blatantly blindfolded, haven't you?

Where did you afford to go in the first place?

"Hey! Kai-kun, Ray-su! Fresh ingredients!

and there, our hero, the goddess, returned.

Take plenty of ingredients from the farmers beside you, and look happy.

All right, shall we start then? Nao, we celebrated your growth, and we celebrated your new doorstep. Boom cooking.

"That's why I came. It's time for the third (tentative) bumpy cooking."

"Is it a bumpy cooking......?

Behind the inn is already set up a set of cooking equipment that can be called an outdoor kitchen.

These are some of the camping sets that are stuck in my, Lace's, and Lue's item boxes after I take them out of Lue's bag.

I guess the biggest anomaly is the item box. Wouldn't this be enough to live without having to take the worst lodging?

"Today, Nao, I'd like to cook a mountain vegetable dish with your request, Chicken Nambang"

"By the way, it's me and the farmers in this town who provide the ingredients."

"It is I, Reyce, who will be my assistant."

That lonely blubber cooking has also now become a totally luxurious ment with a beautiful assistant in charge of bokeh.

Nao, Grandpa Ken and Mr. Stilia take their seats and look taken aback.

Speaking of which, was this the first time you've seen me make it, even if you've eaten it?

... Speaking of which, it looks like Stiglia had food in her skills.

... I get a little nervous.

"Well, let's start with the mountain vegetables."

Well, make it easy.

I'll take out the preserved vegetables and give them to Reis.

It is a plant whose tip is wrapped in a circle like Zenmai, called 'cogarbage', a plant of the cedaceae.

By the way, some mountain vegetables really say 'Zenmai'. Zenmai of mechanical parts can actually be the source of this mountain vegetable.

"Reis, I've been processing it downstairs for a while, but if there's a place with a hard root kuki, can you fold it from there?

"Okay. What will you do after that?

"Kogari doesn't have a lot of ac. I was wondering if you could salt it."

Copy that, sir.

Um, when you have someone you can safely entrust to, it's really a mistake to cook.

Right there with his eyes shining, he said, 'What about me? What about me?' It's a big difference from someone who's about to complain.

But just as pitiful, I decided to entrust him with an easy task.

"Lue, keep the water boiling. Prepare the rear olive oil and salt."

"Is that all you need? Then I'm in charge."

... Really, it's fun here.

Nao, how did you first feel when you came to this world?

What kind of encounter did you have? What 'd you think?

This world is certainly tougher than Japan.

I don't really get that feeling because of this power. But you're not. [M]

Still, now, if you think it's fun.

If you would disobey God's instructions and not be my enemy. Let's help you again then.

"Shouldn't I help you with something too..."

"I told you to leave it to me today, and you don't mind? Stiglia can be slow like this once in a while."

"That's right. It looks like a lot of fun, Mr. Caivon, and I hope we can be like that."

"Dear Nao...... Right. Then next time, shall we make it together?"

"Of course!"

I give the other mountain vegetables to Reis, and this time I'll work on the main ingredients.

It's obviously too big a chunk of meat to call chicken, taken from Lue's warehouse.

When I asked her who this meat was, she said, "It's a delicious, big chicken," but if it's delicious, that's fine.

Place the giant thigh on the slab, creating a small knife with familiar dark magic every time, and work on the bottom treatment.

Remove white muscles, fat, and other parts of the blood.

If you have skin eyes, carefully pull out feathers that have not been cut off.

... thick, these feathers. You're definitely not a chicken, are you a bird demon or some kind of meat this.

I wonder if so and sneak this meat into my item box once to read the description.

"Frenzy God Spirit Bird Insanity Phoenix's Momo Meat"

It was some amazing meat.

What's that cool name, Mr. Phoenix I knocked down looks so sweet, but it is.

All right, let's keep it quiet.

In the meantime, I have finished the down-treatment, so I decide to cut it into some size and soak it in the pickle juice.

Pour soy sauce, mirin, garlic with liquor, and pickled juice with pepper powder in the concealed flavor into a giant bad and arrange the chopped meat.

That's crazy, I cut it up, but I have about two palms one size at a time.

The thickness is also appropriate, so cut the chicken open and lose the thickness in a way called kannon opening.

And what can I say, instead of losing thickness, the area is big enough to cover my face and hide it.

"Wow! It's a luxury to make such a big meat."

"Right, Master Nao. Beware of eating too much, right?

"It's okay, I've never eaten a lot before and gained weight."

"... that's... that's an enviable story"

Mr. Stiglia's precious anger scene.

Nao, it's a rare tone of voice for a girlfriend who is dull and sweet on you.

But the women of the world say they make a lot of effort to maintain their weight.

But my princess and I eat pretty well, but there's no sign of that, is there?

After all, are Genesis humans specially made?

"That's so splendid...... I can't believe it's this big"

"Lace likes meat, too. I'm looking forward to it too."

"Oh, are you done with the salt boiling of the mountain vegetables? Then why don't you cut some of that moisture and put it on a plate?"

When I noticed, they were coming to my side and looking at the meat.

Mr. Rue, do you know what this meat is and you've been eating it?

Or such a terrific piece of meat, who sent it?

Anyway, will you do something else while you're soaking the meat?

I sprinkle the garbage lined up on a plate with olive oil and gently sprinkle with salt.

That's it, it's delicious inside. Become a little appetizer.

The boiled waste is slightly darker and discolored from a light matcha milk-like color.

Wrapped around like an artifact, he's a nigga who looks like a little ornament and works great for serving.

Taste one and you'll have a very crunchy tooth mix of crunchy and troll textures.

Really, this is good.

"Lue, Nao, I need you to carry it."

"Demand a bite from me instead, too"

"Ho."

Throw it in laughing like a chick waiting to be fed and it starts chewing deliciously.

It's good. It's good.

That's how the food goes on, and the many I can do will be aligned before you, Nao.

Garbage olive oil hanging, garbage sesame soda, vinegar miso soda on the tempura of gyoza garlic.

And every time I'm familiar with Osale cooking classic pasta teacher, I'm Ario Aurio from Gyojan garlic.

What a non-unitary composition, I have been free to make only what I really want to make and what I want to eat.

So, the main chicken of the day, Nanban Sensei, is almost finished.

"Kai-kun, this is fun. Do you have anything more to crush?

"Mr. Boiled Egg Crusher, please stop your hand around there. I use it for tartar sauce, so it's good enough to stay in shape to some extent."

"Mmm, so what do we do next?

"This, I just left the chopped onion exposed with water, cut off the moisture from this and put it in the egg"

"Oh, it's Kai-kun's white drool turn, isn't it? You like that one."

That's why you say mayonnaise, ma'am.

Parsley is then also carved, plus a pickle taken out of Lue's warehouse.

Pass them all to Lue and let them mix in the mayonnaise.

and here, Nao, I'm finally losing your composure.

"Wow, the tartar sauce is full of bowls, Stilia! Fine, I want to eat fast."

"Master Nao likes that sauce, doesn't he?... I need to teach you how to make it later"

"Ho ho ho. Grabbing the stomach is basic. Uhm, this yam vegetable jam, I think I can drink just this..."

Ha-ha-ha. Nao, your calorie intake is about to break through the heavens.

Truth is, one day the calories you accumulate will explode and you'll be Mr. Pork?

Eventually, the chicken finishes frying, cutting the oil gently, and then getting to the final finish.

Chicken Nanban, of course, is dominated by putting together a sweet and sour sauce just like the Nanban marinade of an egg.

Recently, however, I sprinkled a thickened sauce from the top and started seeing things in the supermarket with tartar sauce.

I like the method, too, but this time it's freshly fried, so I take the original method I learned to make it gently crease in the dairy while it's hot.

This time we used citrus fruit juice and brewed vinegar produced in Agidal for the topping.

That's vinegar from the US, very tasty.

Dive a small amount of ginger squeeze juice in addition to soy sauce, fruit juice and vinegar with sugar and freshly fried giant calamari in a sauce filled with chopped gyoza garlic.

"After that, I'll cut it up and put it on a chopped lettuce, and when Rhue sprinkles the mixed sauce, it's done"

"Wow, can I finish it? You're not responsible!

"Lue, it's okay because I'm just gonna call you, right?

"Oh, yeah, right. entrusted."

That's how it's done. It surrounds a dish that obviously can't be eaten by the six of us, and we all raise our exclamation.

Rent a large east house and a host of dishes arranged on a large wooden table.

Many well-cooled liquors in a cold sorbet made with the power of Dr. Leue.

Juice is also well prepared for minors. Well, this isn't Japan, and I don't think you can have a drink?

And Nao, you and Reis are getting their gaze nailed by Chicken Nambari.

... Lace, I'm not saying anything anymore.

"Well, I'm done cooking, so I just wanted to say hello."

"Please, Mr. Caivon."

"It was a little faster than planned, but for the celebration of safely stepping through the dungeon and for the nao of you on your new journey, I waved my arms immaturely. This time, the ingredients we picked in this town are also very good, so we hope you can eat them thinking about the town we fought for and protected."

In fact, if the dungeon was delayed, we might not have been able to deal with resource depletion or volcanic eruptions if we did poorly.

With that in mind, we can say that many of the dishes in front of us now can be won as a result of the battle that everyone, including Nao, fought for.

Come on, then, let's eat around here for the troublesome greeting.

"Okay, I'll take it"

"I'll have it."

The faces of everyone who started eating were really dazzling.

Nao, who filled his cheeks with so much meat that they swelled, you were tempted by Stilia, and Grandpa Ken leans over the cup as he sees it.

Nao, did I suddenly embarrass you when I saw how you were doing, Reis, who started eating chickens and chickens, and Lue, who delightfully eats the sauce he made.

The sunset starts dyeing around the area, and the wind blows down that starts to cool off the mountains reasonably well.

Look at everyone who eats it looking delicious, and I'll dedicate myself again.

As always, he was tasting another 'bond' as he poured a delicious' bond 'down his throat.

That's how the night slows down.

At dawn of the night, in front of the inn, a line is turning to us that has completely completed the journey.

Nao, I've got tears in my eyes, and I'm still showing signs that I'm going to hug you here.

If you say you can't do more, you really want to, why don't you be a girl somehow?

"Thank you so much for your help, Mr. Caivon! I did have another mission, but it doesn't matter! I believe in what I believe and move on, just as I want!

"Lord Caivon, I do not hear profound circumstances. My legacy probably has nothing to do with you. I also want to believe what I see with my own eyes"

That's why you inherited it, and you didn't tell me after all, did you? But my face was strangely red, so it's a little hard to hear this one too.

"I was also treated as a master of magic, but this time I was saddened that I was still immature. Let's continue to refine. Kai, if you come to the land of Nong, we will treat you to the secret liquor of the eagle, and we will ask you to cook again."

"Ha, that's exciting. I'll definitely be there, so just wait."

True, it was an adventure that began with a little curiosity, but I was able to have a much more enjoyable and fulfilling day than I imagined.

From now on, again, I'm going to make fun of it, and it was such a fun day that the recharge period before that was too luxurious.

That's why I give them the gifts I've prepared.

I tweaked the ring.

"The design is fragmented, but it's sorting from me. It doesn't have any special effects, but it's a souvenir."

"Oh, that's the ring you've been tweaking during this time!

"Oh. It's probably a perfect match for everyone's fingers."

I'm gonna put three rings through three fingers.

It's okay, it's not my left hand finger. So don't be shy with your hands, Mr. Stilia.

Each one inserts a ring into his index finger.

Something with a simple design combined with wood and gold metal, with a slightly cooler design in all-silver.

And black-polished, glossy objects that I don't think are made of wood.

Each goes in turn on the three fingers.

"Ah, Kai's ring and mine have the same design."

"Hmm!...... don't I have the same design......?

"Unfortunately, this was all I had. It's okay... one day Nao, give me your matching ring."

Whispering only the last part, she rushed away with incredible red dye on her face.

How cute.

"Ho, this is inside... I originally lived in the woods, so these wooden rings are welcome. It's a pleasure."

"Oh, take care of it. All three of you, be well."

"Yes! Mr. Caivon, if you come to the Secondary Continent, please aim for 'Gardeus, the king's capital'. That's where we're based."

"It will be the capital of my country. Please be aware that the Secondary Continent is still experiencing skirmishes with neighbouring countries"

"Mmm. Fortunately, it's the Washi faction that's holding the harbor back, but it's forbidden to be alarmed."

"Then keep it peaceful by the time I get there. Come on, Nao, you!

"Yes!"

So they traveled away.

Take your time walking down the street we came through.

As I dropped it off, I also thought I'd head to the next city.

"Hey, where'd you do that bird meat you knocked down in the meantime? I'd love to eat that."

"I hear the royals have gone to the" Witch Altar "again."

"Seriously. I want to have it every time... it sounds so delicious, huh?

"I'll be hunting again about that, okay? But" The Witch's Altar "...... right. What kind of witch are you?"

"You know. Well, they're scared enough, and you want to make them feel at home."

In a royal castle in a certain country, little men and women talk to each other.

It's not long before a line meets them.
