Living in this World with Cut & Paste

Episode 08: Alchemy and the Mysterious Men

Even though he struggled, it was the harvest that allowed him to defeat the three target orcs today alone.

Because I thought it would take a couple of days sooner.

Now this storage bag is officially mine.

In this hunt, I understood the usefulness of this storage bag to the point of staining myself.

I thought I knew, but I can actually feel it when I use it.

Though dismantled, I haven't stored three oaks, and I still can afford them.

Don't throw away herbivores and other prey on your way home is a very gratifying thing, both spiritually and in your nostalgia.

With that in mind, I will carefully go home to learn my lesson from my battle with Crowler.

Don't forget to use the appraisal and store the herbs from one end to the other.

In the end, he was able to defeat one more Crowler and two Forest Mattons by the time he left the woods.

When I walked through the back gate, I was sorry to see me stained green with Crowler's fluid and to panic the familiar gatekeeper.

With this outfit on the boulder, I can feel you going to the butcher and the alchemist.

With that in mind, I decided to return to my home.

Early on when he arrived home, he took off his dirty clothes, pumped more water from the well, and punched Jabborn from his head.

When the pumped water ran out, I managed to finish the green.

Wipe the water off the gear well with a dry cloth, then shade dry inside the house and put on new clothes again.

The green stained clothes... I wonder if washing them will make them beautiful...

Can't you just leave it on the water?

When I finished working that far, the sun completely sank.

Hurry up and I'll head to the 800's and buy some vegetables for dinner.

He threw it straight into the storage bag and hurried to the alchemist.

By the way, I don't use my skills naturally because it's all over town.

It can be an act of teaching skills to others, so you have to be careful not to accidentally use them.

Good evening!

The sooner I got to the alchemist, I shouted up into the store.

Then "Oh, well," his wife came out to me.

"My husband told me you knocked down the oak? Mine, you're amazing! Sister, I'm surprised."

Unexpectedly praised by the beautiful wife, her face gets burned.

"Eh heh, isn't that enough? By the way, is your brother here?

"Yes, yes, I'll call you now."

That said, your wife disappeared into the store.

After waiting a while, your brother came out from the inside wiping his hands with a towel.

"Mr. Mine, what's going on?

"I've defeated three orcs!

When I answer my brother's question vigorously, his face will have the same pulling look as when I saw him in the morning.

"... isn't it soon?

"I think I got lucky! They said three oaks. Can I get some meat too?

"Luck... I can't defeat three orcs with enough luck."

Your brother laughed bitterly and asked me to serve only the usual ingredients because I don't need meat.

Three oaks in the boulder, some bones, so I moved to a spacious workshop in the back of the store, where I took everything out.

"Yeah, that's three for sure. Even in the morning, I thought it was working really well."

Following his wife, his face gets scorched again after being praised by his brother as well.

"There's nothing wrong with the material, as promised, the storage bag is mine, and now it's yours."

I didn't expect my trusty brother to lie, but I still feel relieved that this is how it will be articulated again.

"Thank you! If you can hunt again, I'll bring it! Oh, yeah. Can't you buy me one, too?

That's what I'm going to say, and I'm going to get out the deconstructed Crowler material and the thread he spit out.

Oh, can't we even sell sheep horns and hooves?

"Oh, you're a crowler. I wonder if I can buy meat from us or the butcher. Tactile, tail, then you can buy this yarn."

That said, he gave me four silver coins and six copper coins.

The breakdown seems to be three silver coins for the tactile and tail of two cars, and one silver coin and six copper coins for all the yarn threads.

Surprisingly, threading seems expensive.

Everything is expensive cloth material.

"And the sheep's horns and hooves are 24 silver coins for six."

Looks like they'll be buying this surprisingly expensive too.

By the way, these horns and hooves are powdered, and when they're formulated with something, they become sleeping pills.

With great joy for his unexpected income, he decides to ask what he comes up with during his hunt.

"... by the way, can I ask you a favor..."

"Please? What's the sudden matter? It's changed."

"... If it's good, I'd like to visit you to formulate a potion... can't you?

I guess my offer was too unexpected, my brother thinking a little with a flashy look on his face.

"I don't mind, but... if you don't have the skills to look at it, you can't do it well, can you? If it's of poor quality, repeat the practice and you might be able to make it..."

"Yeah, I don't mind! Please!!

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

To conclude, potions could be made with well water and medicinal herbs.

The water flowing beneath the town of Lucas seems to be "beautiful water”.

Well water can pump up as much as you want.

I'll make it when I get home soon.

By the way, they also gave me a tour of the high potion mix.

The recipe seems to use water called herbs + "pure running water”.

This is said to be using water taken upstream of the fresh stream flowing into Mount Muir, about two days away by carriage from the town of Lucas.

Of course, there are other places where ”pure running water" can be taken, but that seems to be the closest place from this town.

The conditioning has come to a paragraph, so I thank you both and head to my home via the butcher shop.

The butcher should be around the corner soon, so it's subtle if I can make it.

If you turn this corner, you're a butcher.

Unexpectedly, I'm in a hurry.

What caught my eye at the corner was the look of my uncle in the store.

"Oh? Boy, what's the matter with you so hastily?

My uncle, who saw me, called me with his teeth shining.

I love it so much, with a gripping face but not scared at all!

"Good, uncle...... can we still buy it?

"Hmm? You've been hunting something again? Fine, but let me just tighten the store first. Otherwise, there will be endless visitors."

Laughing gahaha, my uncle resumes cleaning up.

"I'll help you, too!

My uncle said, "Oh well! Then can you ask for it?" He handed me a pair of chisels.

The two of us were able to finish the cleanup safely after about 5 minutes for the first time.

As it is, he moves into the store where the door is closed, and his uncle prompts him to serve the oak meat, the ravioli and the sheep meat.

"... Boy, Orc, have you been hunting again? This amount... two, no, three? I've had enough."

That said, my uncle gave me five gold coins and 55 silver coins.

"A little bit, but I've got fractions to fuck with, you're rich all at once, kid! Gahahahaha."

Put the money you got in the storage bag and say thank you to your uncle.

"Thanks for everything, uncle!

"I mean, you're still going hunting tomorrow? If that's the case, be careful, okay?

My uncle talks to me worryingly...... thank you so much.

"Yeah! Thanks, hunting reminds me of my uncle's attention! Good night, then!

Thank you, now it's time to head home.

I'm going to have a good dream today.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

"Someone gave me some interesting skills today"

"... it's pretty good that you bothered to report that, what kind of skills?

"[Appraisal/All]"

"Oh."

Two men are talking in the dark.

These two conversations are going to have a lot of impact on Mine's life later, but Mine naturally doesn't even know it now.
