"Ugh, uh-huh!?

"What is this curry?!?

"This is the dish that caused the whirlwind at the gourmet tournament!

"I can't believe you could eat during your escort mission!

Private soldiers and adventurers alike raise their praises to the comedy curry made by Lyon.

"I guess so. Lord Lion is a genius. Definitely become a cook who leaves his name in history. We're very lucky to be able to talk about his dishes in person right now."

And it is Bazaar who speaks the finest praise.

He no longer believes and suspects about Lion as a cook.

Pleaded by the bazaar, Lion was supposed to cook in his place.

Of course, the corresponding, no, considerable amount of compensation was offered.

"My role is still the eating side over the making side. Looks like we're going to find new food and help promising cooks."

A bazaar that has forcibly driven away the inhabitants of the Glades, but doesn't seem like such a bad person.

In the first place, it is never uncommon for a nobleman to despise the poor tomorrow.

Or maybe there was an aesthetic that it had to be someone who could pay the corresponding price to be on a fine dish.

"" Mogu Mogu ""

"Hey, taste and eat some more."

"" Hmm?

Bazaar gracefully eats Lion's curry, blaming the twins for eating at a fierce speed.

I haven't eaten too much from what I've seen, but is it because of lack of exercise that I have plenty of meat stuck in my stomach?

We reached the demonic realm of the rainbow forest.

This time we're exploring the red realm.

The trees were bright red.

This is not only the red leaf season, but this is the way it is all year round.

"Even in the rainbow forest, it is especially known as a treasure trove of ingredients. It is rich in nuts and mushrooms, plus many beastly demons that feed on it"

Bazaar tells him so, and then he looks at Lion.

"Lord Lion. I would love to help you find new ingredients. Perhaps he has better eyes than I do."

"... ugh, yeah"

Looks like Lion is expected to investigate more ingredients than escorts.

... has become a complete tribute at some point.

That's how the line enters the woods.

Then one of the adventurers discovered what was immediately there.

"Mm, there's a bright red mushroom growing over there. You look like strawberries."

"Sure, it kind of smells good"

"" Mmm!

Lion cautions just in case as he grabs the root of the twins trying to get close to the mushroom and stops them.

"Those are poison mushrooms. It's also very poisonous. If I get caught with a sweet smell and mouth it, at the end of the day, the poison will turn around and die in no time. How powerful the antidote magic is, or if you don't use the antidote right away, it won't help."

"" Hih!?

……

The adventurers leak screams and the twins rush to stop moving too.

For the first time, the twins looked at each other and murmured "" frightened, "" knowing that there were poisonous mushrooms that also confused the smell of the beast man.

"That's Lord Lion. Well known."

Bazaar is impressed, but he didn't know anything else.

Just looking at it somehow made me understand.

"But if you pull out the poison, you can eat it. Probably quite delicious."

"Holy shit!? But no matter how much I boiled it, I couldn't get out the poison..."

Apparently the bazaar tried to boil and eat.

But once I checked with the slaves at the mansion to feed them, they still said they weren't out of poison.

"Mm? That slave? I don't know what happened, but it probably would have healed with healing magic. If you let him die, he won't be able to see the poison."

……

For Bazaar, the life of a slave seems to be much lighter than gourmet.

(Well, nobility is such a thing)

"So how do I get the poison out?

The quickest way is to use detoxification magic, directly on mushrooms.

But then there's no art, and it's impossible without the magic of lions in the first place.

"Hmmm...... I feel I should be able to cool it instead of heating it"

"Oh, is that true? I've never heard of mushroom poisoning before…"

"... probably"

I'm just saying I know somehow, if I don't make sure, I don't know.

"Okay, let's just say we take it back to the mansion and actually try it out"

Will one more person, a slave, be sacrificed?

I just have to pray as a lion that the detoxification will succeed.

"" Huh!

First Lion, and a little late the twins noticed that too.

After a while more, a private soldier or adventurer who is good at defeating enemies senses its presence.

"The demons are approaching!

"Or it's pretty fast!

Formed to protect Bazaar, private soldiers and adventurers set up to intercept imminent demons.

Eventually, with the fierce noise of the trees being pushed down, it appeared.

It's a giant bear with bright red hair.

The mouth is lined with dagger-like fangs, and the hands and feet are as thick as the trees.

"Bu, Blood Grizzly Huh!?

"I can't believe all of a sudden there's such a powerful enemy!?

Everyone attracts a face.

Because Brad Grizzlies prefer human flesh and even S-rank adventurers are raving demons of struggling strength.

It's not funny to come looking for ingredients and, conversely, to have ourselves eaten.

But in the meantime, Lion...

"Oh, this meat looks pretty good,"

I only saw Blood Grizzly as an ingredient.
