"Ray! Three pans for 500 soups are complete!

"The baked bread over here is already chilled, so store it! If we don't get rid of this bread soon, there's nowhere to put the next baked bread, please hurry!

"We've got fangboa and vegetable stir-fry! If the fire goes too far, the flavor will drop, so clean up every pan quickly!

"I'm sorry, I brought a barrel with wine. Where do I put it? Huh! There are so many orders, if you don't pick them up soon, the entrance will be blocked!

Space that is the guild's training ground if it is meant to be. There were now plenty of cooks, bakers, or merchants carrying ordered goods.

Eventually, Ray's decision to use the freshly prepared dish as food for the army began the next day.

Keep the food inside the mistering somehow and time will not pass. I mean, we haven't decided on the details of the troops to be served out of the city of Gilm yet, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with cooking as food from now on.

"This is the soup pan."

Ray rarely stores dishes he could do while scratching sweat on his forehead but running around the training field in the next mistering.

Yeah, every cookware, like pans and frying pans.

And after Ray stores the cookware, a new cookware is installed again to start cooking the next dish.

"Keo, we've got three pans of soup."

"Yes, yes, I got it."

Keo answers Ray's call as he goes around with it behind him and runs a pen on the paper in his hand.

If you want to think only about efficiency, you don't need to have cooks from all over the city gathering in the Alliance's training grounds. But in this case, we have to make sure that we check how many well-made dishes, breads, or barrels of liquor have been brought in. For this reason, Keo is walking after Ray, and at the same time, cooks are gathering at the training ground to cook and bake bread under the blue sky.

Of course, there is no such facility as a cooking area for cooking in a training area. But that was exactly what the city's lord was supposed to be, and Dusker made a request to the Alliance Master's Marina to make it happen.

After that, the city's blacksmiths literally spare no time to create tons of cookware, so they cook and store it in Ray's Mysteries. It had already been a few hours since such a busy job began. I usually get used to it to some extent if I keep doing this, but still, Ray runs around the training ground with Keo, the supply guy, just saying the busy stuff is busy.

"Bread's next. Is this what you're cold for!?

"Yeah, that's right. The next loaf of bread will be baked in a little while, so please hurry."

"Okay. Keo."

Ray pointed his gaze at Keo behind him, but Keo has already written down the number of pieces of bread on the paper he has.

One last quick check of the number of pieces of bread and gaze at Ray.

"Ray, I did confirm 180 pieces of bread."

A special ability to instantly derive that number of pieces just by looking at it for a moment. That was the biggest reason Keo was in charge of replenishment.

Ray fully demonstrates that ability, which also has the negative element of bringing headaches without being able to handle them with Keo's brain if there is too much, nods to Keo's words, who has instantly finished counting the number of breads, and touches the basin made of the tree on which the bread is placed and stores it inside the mistering.

Then, as if waiting for it, a new and huge basin of wood will be prepared, and immediately the freshly baked bread will be arranged for cooling when it is removed from more than one loaf.

"Hey, Ray! Quickly, this way, please!

"Okay, wait a minute!

The cook in charge of the stir-frying dishes calls me to a place where there are several cooking areas lined up with fire and flames all along with Keo.

What was there was a giant pot, not a frying pan that was originally suitable for making stir-fry. There is a line of meat from various monsters stir-fried with plenty of vegetables in it, as well as several other stir-fried meats such as pork and chicken.

The busiest part of the training ground that turned into this big kitchen was where Ray and Keo are now in charge of stir-frying.

The stewed dishes and soups take some time to simmer, and the bread doesn't say that it's about simmering, but it takes a lot of time. However, the stir-fry uses magic items made from flame ore and is stir-fry with fire power that just says which attack magic it is. In order not to need work like serving it on a plate from a cookware pan, the dish will be finished from next.

"Look, hurry up. You're almost ready for your next stir fry."

"I know.... By the way, what's next?

"I made it with reference to the grilled udon from the city of Abu Ero you brought me, a sauce-flavored grilled udon. I guarantee the flavour."

I smile as Dishot wipes the sweat that surfaced on my forehead with a cloth that was nearby.

Ray's brought sauce-flavored grilled udon. Impressed by its flavor, Dishot desperately adjusted the demiglass sauce he used in his dining room to match the grilled udon, and the other day he finally completed his first sauce-flavored grilled udon in the city of Gilm.

"Heh. That's exciting. Have a taste..."

It was a word out of my mouth just because I knew Dishot's cooking arm, but Keo's hand reaches out to Ray's right shoulder as if to hang on to it.

"Ray, once this dish is all about food, it's hard to get stuck."

"... at all?

"Whatever the cook wants to taste, he just gets stuck in front of me in charge of supplies..."

Words are soft, but you must be proud of what you do. I'm sending my gaze straight to Ray.

Taking that gaze, Ray eventually sighs again and opens his mouth.

"Okay, I get it."

That's what Ray answers, and he stores the dish, which has been done very well, into the mistering of every pot again.

So the next thing you know... and you look around, someone near the entrance to the training ground will call out to you.

"I'm sorry! If you're sober, I'd like to ask you to hurry up! I can't get through here in a barrel. Yo!

"Oh, yes, yes. You have to go right away. Please wait a minute.... Mr. Ray, let's go. Because it won't barrel up the training ground or spill."

"Right. If you seal the entrance in the first place, there will be additional ingredients…"

That's when I said it, and I walked out to the person who called me.

"Whoa, we're not gathered in a place like this! You can't go in there! Whoa, get out of the way!

"Oh, wait a minute, please. Because the supply team will come and pick it up now. It's alcohol in the barrel, so please don't treat me abusively. No!

Apparently it was one step late, and the contention had begun near the entrance to the training ground.

"Yes, yes, yes, wait a minute. I'll pick it up right away, so don't fight!

Keo, the Supply Officer, goes in and arbitrates between the two of them, saying so.

Of course, there was no way I could bring a barrel of liquor alone, with nearly 30 people present on the spot in all, each loading a large quantity of liquor barrels into something like a rickshaw.

In fact, alcohol is one of the most important supplies in this world's wars. This is because there are uses such as allowing about one drink at meals to maintain morale, banqueting after winning even skirmishes, or acting overwhelmingly when we are at a disadvantage to prevent morale from dropping and reduce deserters. Moreover, alcoholic alcohol, so called strong alcohol, can also be diverted for disinfection when treating injuries.

Most troops leaving the city of Gilm are unlikely to run out of drugs and potions thanks to the benefit of Ray's item box.

"Mr. Ray, just go store the barrel! I'm not gonna let anyone else come in here like this."

"Leave it to me."

Ray nods at Keo screaming backwards and heads to the entrance to the training ground.

"All of this, huh?

"Right. However, please don't store rickshaws because they are ours."

"Leave it to me."

Ray nods at the representative man who brought the barrel, and then touches the barrel in the rickshaw and stores it in the mistering.

"Whoa, wow... I've never seen an item box before"

"Hmm? Really? Ray would be famous in this city."

"No, I don't know how famous you are, but that's because you're with Seto, right? I don't normally use item boxes like that."

"I don't think so. Ray often buys a lot of food in stores and stuff and puts it in an item box. I've seen it many times before."

Store the barrels one after the other, listening from right to left to what the musculoskeletal men who brought the barrels by rickshaw were talking about.

And it's hard to predict that the rickshaw that was stopping near the entrance to the training center has been emptied, and Keo calls out to the other group.

"Thank you for waiting. Please keep bringing in more and more ingredients as some of them are running out of ingredients!

"Aye, leave it to me. The bastards of the Bestian Empire will kill you in no time if you eat a dish made of our ingredients. Hey, guys!

"Ooh!"

Those who follow behind cry out to the voice of the leading man.

"Haha. We'll do our best, so please help us out."

"Hey, hey! The bread's burned! Just act like an item box!

As soon as I thought I had stored all the liquor barrels, the representatives of those who were baking bread again come to voice to Ray and Keo.

"Yes, yes, I'll be right there. Mr. Ray!"

"I know!

Just as busy as this, you get mentally tired anyway physically, or you walk out with a small sigh of sigh.

"... you're just tired..."

"Gru?"

At night, Ray shrugs unintentionally as he walks down a darkened road.

I was listening to that. Is Seto okay? and make sure to peek into Ray all the time and ring in the back of his throat.

While Ray and Keo were desperately storing the kind of food they prepared as food in their mistering, Seto ended up sleeping in a space reserved for the Alliance's squire because of the fact that his body could be large and disturbing, or that hair and wings could go into the dish, spending time with such face-to-face people as children, adventurers and city dwellers who came to visit.

And after the evening, that's the end of the day because the cooks who cooked all day just said they couldn't do any more.

... did not become. Of course, the cooks broke up on the spot and each went home with a reward.

By the way, it is obvious from this matter that if food is prepared as a decent dish, it is also the kind of carriage used to carry supplies, but naturally the price per meal jumps. Such imitation could have been possible because the city was very wealthy thanks to the export of high-level monsters to the kingdom of Mireana as the only city on the border, as well as medicinal herbs that only inhabited the area. If the cost of food was too high for a typical aristocrat, he definitely stepped on two feet to imitate as Dusker judged.

Anyway, Ray and Keo's work was still not finished after the cooks left.

After a 10-minute break once the food thing was over, two and one of the city's various shops added cet to start the potion, stowing recovery items, weapons, protective equipment, medical supplies used to treat them, leaves for military horses, and containers filled with plenty of water.

Unlike the food, these don't cool and taste off, so considering the effort to collect them in one place, Ray himself was quick to store them directly around.

However, this is not the same as cooking, just because I can't store all my supplies in one day, I will take a few days to go around.

Still, I guess Dusker also knew it was dangerous when something happened to Ray to leave all the supplies entirely to Ray. Ray was about half in charge of supplies other than food.

"Right. But this businessmanship is a little later. Calculation says it won't take 10 days to get in today, so try harder."

That's how Keo sounds as he walks in to follow Ray and Seto.

"... so why are you following us? You don't have to go back to the Knights?

Ray returns words as he looks at the keo of his bare hands.

Keo is in the palm of his hand because he keeps a bunch of paper inside Ray's mysteries checking supplies.

If you want to act with Ray anyway, you don't have to go out of your way to hold a bunch of heavy paper to use Ray's item box, and Keo didn't have to hold a bunch of heavy paper to take a place because Ray also tolerated it.

Though in a sense it was a knightly figure that all I had was a fitted sheath of swords that were lowering from my hips.

"No, 'cause from today on, I'm gonna have to act with you, Ray. Then I should wake up at the inn with you, too, Ray. My boss ordered me to do that, but I have to take it as a subordinate, right?

"Grrrrrrrr?"

Tilt his little neck as Seto turned around and looked at Keo.

Even in Ceto, it wasn't that bad of a story to have someone nearby who wouldn't mind not being scared of me, and I guess the point was to give me a little bit of food.

"... Whatever you want"

He watched Seto like that and accidentally admitted to accompanying Keo with a bitter smile.

Thus, both Ray and Keo will act together, and will continue to collect supplies for about 10 days, such as storing them in Ray's mysteries.

... and the day has come to set off for the battlefield.
