I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)
566 Cooking internship begins
Fran seems to start by checking the seasoning and discussing what dishes to cook.
"Um, Fran? Are you sure you don't want to split the squad and start dismantling?
"The other squads are already starting to dismantle...?
"Go. With all that warcraft, we can dismantle it immediately."
"That's great."
"You can count on me."
A sneak peek at the other squad's handiwork is pretty bad. It's slow, I don't understand the structure of the prey, and the overall handiwork is poor. Perhaps dismantling alone will take more than half an hour.
You don't have to worry about anything but demon stones and poison glands. Yeah, a skunk raccoon smaller in size doesn't take five minutes for a flan.
No, are we just superhuman fast with the benefit of our dismantling skills? Come to think of it, you're good enough compared to me when I just came to this world. I miss when I was trying to deconstruct the material properly and tearing it down.
"Seasoning, is that all?
"Huh? Yes..."
"Mmm."
Look at the condiments prepared by Carona and groan like Fran was rarely weakened.
Well, I don't even know what it feels like. Whatever, there are two types of rock salt, pepper and vanilla placed on the table. Later, seasoned salt mixed with chopped mushrooms and oil in salt. That's all it was.
Seasoned salt looks like amateur handmade, and vanilla is the type of thing with weak aromas and other things that don't taste very good.
Apparently, there's only one thing you can pick in the wild mountains. When I heard the story, they said it was a seasoning I had collected in my previous classes.
"... shouldn't I buy it?
"Granted, we're not very familiar with condiments..."
Until now, they were all ingredients that they would manage to eat if they were fed with seasoned salt or vanilla.
It's just, this Skunk Raccoon isn't gonna be a glimmer, is it? To the extent that it adds or subtracts heat, the smell won't go away.
I just don't have time to go to town right now and get some condiments.
"Okay. I'll take care of the seasoning."
"Do you have anything?
"Mm-hmm. There's a lot going on."
"Oh, Fran could use space-time magic."
So it seems the Frans have decided to proceed with the demolition first.
If Fran does everything he can, it'll be over soon, but he seems to do the demolition while explaining it to the Caronas. I guess it's because this is part of the class. Even Fran understands that you shouldn't have done anything.
But before the Frans went into dismantling, there was a loud scream from the students in the other squad. Then the other squads hold their eyes and noses and start screaming.
"Whew!
"What is this smell......!
"Kusa! It's creepy!
"Gah!"
Apparently, some squad damaged the toxic glands during the dismantling. Skunk Raccoon's poison is slightly poisonous, but the smell was awesome anyway.
The smell of meat tends to be caused by that too, but it's actually not. Skunk Raccoon's blood contains ingredients to withstand his own poison gas. It smells like a chemical with its ingredients, which makes it smell like meat.
In contrast, the smell of poison is an intense sulfur odor. The smell seemed to have spread all over the area because of other squads scratching the toxic glands. Every squad is smothered with tears.
Carona and the others are gone. Whatever the three men are, Carona, the nobleman's courtier, that face doesn't look bad? Fran also apparently only inhaled the gas for a moment, and was staring at her face.
But as soon as the wind magic blows the ambient air, it stretches the line and blocks the odor.
"Oh, thank you."
"Oh, thank you"
"That's an annoying cry..."
"Wow, you all look terrible"
The perimeter is half panicked, but Fran doesn't particularly care. When we made sure our surroundings stopped smelling, we went back to explaining the demolition.
"Then I'll put a knife in here first"
"Huh? Ah, yes"
The Caronas also quickly concentrated on Fran's hand, remembering that their work was lagging behind.
That's how you proceed with the work, you finish almost all demolitions in about 10 minutes. Of course, it didn't snag like it damaged the toxic glands and caused a strange odor noise.
"Wonderful work."
"Well, that's great."
"Anyone can do it if they get used to it. More than that, what do we do with this?
"If the demon stone or the like can be successfully collected, it is the form to be given to the teacher later"
Apparently the teacher brings it into the Adventurer Guild or something to cover the cost of doing the class at all.
"I got quite a bit of meat, what kind of dish would you like?
"Hey, something smells weird..."
"Bad color too"
"That's quite a lot of muscle, too. I wonder how it tastes?
Carona and the others in the face that it doesn't look very tasty before they eat it. Fran nodded heavily at the words.
"Mm-hmm. Very stinky and unsavory. There's nothing I can do about it."
"Wow, that's... Then what?
"I have no choice. Use this."
What Fran took out of dimensional storage was a bunch of curry powder I formulated. It regulates aroma and spiciness by ingredients and cooking methods.
"What's this?
"Curry powder made by the master. With this, any ingredient will taste ultimate. supreme seasoning."
"Heh, curry is the name of the dish?
"Mm-hmm. The strongest dish"
"That sounds awesome. But that's a strange scent. Are you formulating spices?
The only person who had eaten into curry flour was Ostress. If you're not interested in cooking, it's just a rare seasoning.
But soon Carona will raise her voice.
"Wait. When I say curry, isn't it a new dish, that it has recently begun to become popular in the Kingdom of Kranzel?
"Made by Master"
"So, maybe Mr. Fran's master is the rumored Master Curry? I heard you're an amazing cook... Aren't you the master of adventurers?
"The master is everything perfect. Cooking, fighting, magic, it's all top notch. All my masters."
"Well, is that so? Are you a famous adventurer?
"I'm not an adventurer. Master is Master."
"Ha..."
What a story, while Osless was finishing confirming the curry powder.
"You don't know how to use it like I do. You want me to cover it and bake it?
"Still fine, but I'll use it differently this time"
Afterwards, Fran gave instructions, while everyone proceeded to cook.
I can't believe that Fran gave instructions to people to work together and cook... If it had been before, I would have finished it all myself and chewed up the food by myself.
I can feel Fran's little growth, and it's going to make me cry. I don't have tear glands, though.
