Rice for Enoch’s Second Expeditionary Unit

I can't get the look on the captain's face back from the meeting.

If you come to the break room, exhale a great sigh.

I was working with Mr. Gull on an easy job of coarsely crushing nuts such as mountain walnuts (noiers) with sticks.

I didn't have time to listen to him, I kept him busy, so I left him alone.

All I hear in the room is the sound of pounding nuts. In it, once again, the captain sighs.

Me and Mr. Gull pound a stick of wood into a bag with nuts. It's crispy and fried, so it's pretty hard.

"Mr. Gull, it's going to rain"

The two of us look out the window.

I would have to take it in, such as the hand towel I was washing.

If I stood up cursorily, I saw eye to eye with the depressed looking captain. I can't ignore it like this.

Apparently, Mr. Gull will take in the laundry. I had a conversation with my eyes and asked for it.

This is how I lose my job. I don't like to talk.

"Captain, what's wrong?

"Starting tomorrow morning, I have a sudden assignment."

"Ahhh, that's disappointing"

Why, it was a holiday tomorrow.

"I don't have a choice. It's an order from above."

……

I tried to encourage you, but the look on the face of the captain who spoke of dissatisfaction doesn't clear.

Is it so hard to tell everyone? Shake your head to the side if I tell the rest of the crew to come. I will report it to you at the end of the day.

Then why are you looking so melancholy?

Are you still worried about something?

"... what"

"Yes?"

I couldn't hear it because I whispered and bumped. Keep your ears close and ask again.

"Captain, I didn't hear you, so please say it again"

Tomorrow, it's Melina's birthday.

"Wow..."

As soon as I hear that, I get the same look as the captain.

Mr. Melina is the captain's fiancé. Beautiful, but quite a temperament personality.

That way of freaking out, I thought it must be laid on my pretty ass.

It's my birthday, so I must have made a promise to go out and eat. I'm sure he said, "Which is more important, me or your work!" I guess I'll be questioned.

I shook up gable about someone else.

"I... don't know what to do... Hey, Squirrel, in this case, how can you forgive me?

"No, even if you ask me"

In the village, the wife desperately supports her working husband.

Go to the woods and hunt beasts and sell fur and meat to pedestrians. Then, cut down the trees and do business.

I manage to live my life in exchange for my daily labor.

There's nothing more important than work. Because we who live in the woods cannot live without working.

So even though I was making a promise and they suddenly told me I had a job in, all I could say was, "Oh, yes".

Well, this is the situation of Fore Elf living in the woods.

But the people who live in the city - especially the noble captains and Mr. Melina - can live without having to work.

So, I guess this is a big case for the captain.

By the way, "Which is more important, me or your job!" The dialogue was an impressive word in a romantic novel between a knight and a young lady that was popular in the village.

In Folle Elf's common sense: "Things more important than work, etc. Nyinai!" What is it, people living in Wangdu get into fights over this stuff - and we talked about it.

I didn't expect you to come across such an occasion in front of me. That's right, Wang Du.

I'll give the captain a little advice.

"Why don't you talk to Zara?

"To Zara?

"Yes, I have the most female skills, so I might be able to get some good ideas."

The captain arms up and replies that he understands.

More than that, I'll ask you a question about the matter you were wondering about.

"Speaking of which, what's the mission?

"We must go to Snow Mountain to find a crack in the runaway aristocracy"

"Again, you're a harsh one"

It's a mountain climb, so gear must be minimal.

I'm cold on that, so I have to prepare nutritious preserved foods.

Cold places consume activity just by being there.

By the way, it was the son of a certain great nobleman who went missing, and as he ran off, he got separated in the snowy mountains he fled into.

Women are protected early.

"But why snowy mountains?"

"He was being chased by someone in the house who was opposed to marriage, and he seemed to be running away"

"I see."

You think the Expeditionary Corps crew is taking turns searching?

Sounds like it's my second day.

"Is that alive?

"I don't know. But we'll look until we find the body."

"Yeah, no..."

Our search time in Snow Mountain seems to be half a day.

"If you'd slipped, you wouldn't have found it."

"We'll have to do it. That's an order up there."

The nuts I was crushing with Mr. Gull today were going to be mixed with biscuit dough to bake, but it's a maneuver change.

"Captain, can I go buy you out for a minute?

"Oh, come back by the end of the day."

Copy that, sir.

I hope they go and come home before it rains. With that in mind, for once, I'm going out with an umbrella.

I go out fast and do my shopping crisp.

I bought grains, dried fruit.

Grains (grains) are steamed grains crushed and dried.

It seems to be popular in Wangdu due to its abundance of dietary fiber, high nutritional value and ease of eating.

Use this grain to make something.

When you climb mountains, you need food designed to nourish the "behavioral diet".

Easy to eat and must prepare nutritious items. If possible, put it in your pocket or something so you can eat it while walking.

So they fry grains (grains) and dried fruits, nuts, etc., and make stick-shaped foods that are hardened with honey (miele).

It's a substitute that would normally be so sweet that it would tremble and make you fat, but you get tired quickly when you climb mountains. Therefore, we will need food that can be easily nourished.

I was going to do some shopping in a hurry, but it's dusty outside.

Wearing a jacket headscarf, he gave me an umbrella and went home in the rain on a small run.

Report back to the captain and get down to cooking immediately.

First, add crushed nuts and grains (grains), dried fruit, shake salt gently and mix together.

Once, it was stir-fried and fragrant.

In a vessel, after taking the crude heat, drizzle the honey (Miele) and mix together.

If ingredients are wrapped together, place in a square iron plate and cook in kamado.

Cook it for a while and it's done.

Cut the baked items into bars and wrap them on paper when they cool down to the inside.

I've made about thirty copies in total. Five bottles per person.

The mission is for half a day, and it will be enough. And then I'm going to take the bread, the dried meat, the biscuits, etc. to the baked sweets that I had made and set aside.

And maybe you can get some liver patties or something salty. It tastes good when I apply it to biscuits and bread and eat it.

They're leaving early in the morning, so I'll be ready.

If you go back to the break room, you'll see the captain with his head in his arms and Zara sitting with his legs together.

"Good luck"

"Good luck, Mel,"

It's an awkward vibe, so I wanted to leave as it was, but Zara pounded next door, so I decided not to sit down.

"Mel, did you hear that? The most unfortunate story of the captain."

"Oh, yes."

"Poor thing."

I talked to Zara and she told me that I should give her jewelry.

"But the store will be closed by now"

"Oh, when the boy from the Rude Tink family under the sky comes, he'll open it"

"But I don't know what a woman wants..."

Mr. Zara and the captain look at me at the same time.

"No, I don't know either. I live in the woods, and I've never seen any jewelry."

I'll tell you if Zara knows better.

"Crowe and I are gonna go to the jewelry store, and I'm gonna be freaked out in a bad way"

"That's an odd encounter. Me, too."

That's why the three of us decided to go to the jewelry store amicably.

"It's raining outside."

"Come on, let's go."

Pretty unridden me. The captain is twitching to get it over with.

Zara looks a little fun.

The jewelry store was closed after all. But I was forced to open it specially, not...

The store displayed sparkling beautiful necklaces, ear decorations, chest decorations, etc. like works of art.

Mr. Zara and the captain are not that one, we are both seriously choosing that this is not the case.

Something doesn't even look like freshly dating lovers if you're looking from behind.

The clerk thought the same thing, watched with raw warm eyes.

Looks like he chose carefully and eventually bought the necklace. It has green gems and is so beautiful.

In the end, I just came along and did nothing.

But I could see the gem, so I felt like I got it.

If it was about chest decoration, I don't know if I could have about one. To buy one day, I have to work hard.

If you look blurry, Mr. Zara will make the call.

"Hey, Mel, the captain's buying you chest decorations."

"Huh!?

Just the reward.

Fine, I hesitated, but they'll buy Zara, too.

I was shown flowers, rabbits, stars and birds. They're all cute.

"Hey, don't you like rabbits?

Ignore the captain's words.

But I'm lost...

After all, if I don't deserve it and don't think I need to buy it, Zara, who was next door, points to the flower chest decoration.

"Mel, why don't you make this flower? I'm sure it suits you."

"Is it?

"Yeah, that's how it's decided."

The captain who heard our conversation told the clerk he was buying flower chest decorations.

"Will Mel pick mine?

Such, responsible.

But because he said it that way, he made a serious choice and eventually chose a chest decoration mimicking a raptor bird.

"Oh no, you chose to be sinister"

"It would be perfect for you. Because it's carnivorous."

"Oh, ugh."

Mysterious interactions, brothers.

The clerk brought me a chest decorated wrap.

I can't believe you're giving me such a nice thing.

Starting tomorrow, I thought I'd do your job again.
