I logged in earlier than usual today. Because I was worried about Earl.

"... there is no Earl"

There was no one in the room. I don't see that giant anywhere.

"Nil, it's tough. There's no Earl."

The summoned nil is yawning sleepfully. And I started sleeping twice so I could be buried in the fuzzy sheets of my bed.

"Totally......"

Think about where Earl went with such a nil to spare. You couldn't have gone anywhere to Earl. Then where did you go?

"What's this?

A minimap at the end of my sight caught my eye. Two marks represent me and Nil. And there was also a mark outside this room. I look out the window unexpectedly.

"I was there. Nil, I'm coming."

Open the door and go outside. Nil stopped on my shoulder as he flew out into the hallway.

Take Nil and exit the back door of the inn. There were sheets lined with dried and windy sheets.

"Yes, this is the last one!

Girl holding a large sheet with both hands. I received the sheets with one big hand from the kid, and there was a big robe that was drying the sheets.

"Thank you for helping me, big brother!

The girl returns to the inn with an empty laundry basket and misplaced with us. Earl is slowly waving away, aren't you?

"I searched, Earl"

I call out in relief to you like that. Then Earl finally noticed me approaching and shook his body frighteningly.

"I'm surprised. I told you to be in that room, because you weren't in that room."

Earl lets his gaze swim like it's awkward first. I was trying to be restless messing with my hands.

"Be careful, it's dangerous to act too alone while you're in this city"

If people find you because you're an oak, you'll risk being attacked. I just hadn't noticed the kid earlier either, and if I had noticed who he was, I might have let the adults know. Earl looked down to be depressed.

"Well, this time it seemed like there was a reason, so fine"

Returns one smile. You were helping that girl, weren't you?

"What are you doing, I'm just going for breakfast."

I'll call you because Earl hasn't followed me on foot in a while. Then I heard Earl's footsteps running like a panic from behind.

Okay, breakfast, right? I thought I'd go buy it somewhere, but I do possess cooking skills. I took it because of you, so you can't not not use it.

Let's go back to your room and get ready to make breakfast. Take out the beginner cooking kit you just bought. Actually, I also bought it for the intermediate. Mr. Miranda is really good at business, thanks to you, the money is gone again.

You can cook simple dishes with this. Specifically, it's a dish with only one to two ingredients to use.

What shall I make? Look at the inventory to find what you might be able to use as an ingredient. Um, I have about fifty oak related drops, but they won't be ingredients.

Paralyzed mushrooms, poisonous spider legs, venison...... that's all an item you got from the monster you knocked down when you were selling potions in [Dusk Forest]. Yeah, I think I could use venison.

Remove the venison from the inventory. The colour of the meat that feels fresh as it is. Cut that up properly and just bake it in a frying pan.

That's just the process, but it's fun. Yeah. With that said, how many years has it been since I've cooked these dishes? It's been convenient lately, so I just left it to the range and the machine.

And I could [venison steak]. It doesn't look good for breakfast, but if you think about it in real time, it'll be dinner. By the way, of course, there's Nil and Earl's share.

"Come on, let's eat"

I just baked it, but the smell looks delicious. It looks perfect too. Take a sip of that.

"I just baked it, but this is it."

... an anomalous state icon appeared at the edge of my vision.

As always, Nil fell asleep, even to Earl.

Oh, with that said, this deer wasn't a regular deer, it was a nasty monster who said [Twilight Dia] and put his opponent to sleep. That's why I was trying not to meet much. 'Cause if I sleep working solo, I won't be able to do anything.

Yeah, like right now.

Your vision darkens. I'm asleep. [Sleep tolerance] Though you have it, it looks like you've been like this for five seconds. Cara (Chloe) fell asleep, but being a player, I don't have the effect of sleeping. So just stay on this dark screen and wait for the effects to disappear. I'm glad this isn't in the fight.

The condition anomaly disappears because five seconds have elapsed. Nil and Earl stay asleep, right? They seemed to remain effective because they were intolerant.

"Wake up, both of you."

Earl woke up when I woke him up shaking. The effect of sleep itself was a low-level one, so this is how it seems to happen if someone wakes up. This won't happen when it's the hypnosis that the original [Twilight Dia] does.

"Look, so is Nil"

Looks like Nil woke up too, but he slept again. The condition anomaly must be over. Well, let this one go.

Nevertheless, I didn't think I'd sleep with the first dish I ever made. The venison I used to cook was bad. But I do think he was generating hypnosis from a spellstone in the horn of a deer...

Yeah, that's where the flavor is. It just felt like something was missing because I just baked it.

"Even though my uncle's meat skewers are delicious"

Skewers of meat left in the inventory. I'll take a bite of that. I knew this one would taste better. Is it better that the meat used is different or baked? Spices seem to have something to do with it, too.

"Spices..."

Open the inventory. You did have a lot of herbal kind.

"What could turn off the effects of sleep and become more spices..."

Inventory and sparkle remembering the taste of that [venison steak]. We will then compare the herbs to the weeds that were separated as thoughtful objects.

"This is it."

What I found was a tingly flavored grass. [Taste] I can tell if my skills are working or if it feels good to use this. Nevertheless, what plant is this? Appraisal to try.... Failure. I knew I was still on the level...

Appraisal Skill is now Level 20

Oh, apparently, you've reached level 20 with your current behavior. Because of that, or something previously recognized as a weed, has changed. That looks like an herb in my hand right now.

It was a thin leafy, red-colored herb named Red Glass. Now I'll make it using the remaining venison and red glass. Did you fail the first time, Blackburn? Success the second time.

[Red glass and venison steak] done. I'll take a bite. Yeah, sounds good. The tingling and tongue-inducing flavour goes with venison. And the state anomaly hasn't come out so far either.

"Do you guys want some too?

Nil and the others got their necks covered. It's okay, because I'm not going to sleep this time.
