"... Rice?

It does say 'Rarasu' when you check your name.

But thank you. It's not what I imagined.

What I imagined was white rice.

The object in front of you is like whitening crusted wheat.

I guess my explanation was bad.

Because I said it looked similar to wheat.

But I didn't think there was white wheat.

And there's another thing next door that concerns me.

There's only livestock feed on this shelf, so perhaps something of interest is feeding as well.

Unlike the white rice I imagined, there is crusted rice.

Besides, his name is Kome.

"'Kome' for 'Rasu'"

I'm really curious about something.

Who thought of the name?

"What's wrong?

I guess you wondered because I stare at rice and rice too much.

Someone who seemed to be the owner of the store who was looking a little further away asked.

I want to talk about these breast sprouts, but I can't do that.

"No, it's nothing"

"Really? You're young, but you're interested in feeding?

Uh, how can I explain that to you, it doesn't seem suspicious?

... I can't, I can't think of anything.

No more, no more.

"Um, can you refine this rice?

"Precision rice? You mean refined wheat? Well, I know you can, but what are you gonna do with all that effort on the bait?

"No, not bait... thought I'd try it"

"... do you want some?

I guess they think you're absolutely weird.

But let's give up here.

To get rice!

"Yes."

"Isn't that 'Muggle'?

"Yes."

Is that it?

"Mugi?"

Look around the store and find 'Muggle'.

There it is, barley thing.

Is the barley in memory a 'muggle'?

The shelves here were ingredients, weren't they?

Oh, there's also "Komugi" next door.

Speaking of which, you had ingredients similar to pasta, wouldn't it be surprising if you had wheat?

Nevertheless, barley is' muggy 'and wheat is' komuggy '.

The name of this world is strange.

"Well, I don't think there's anything you can't eat. Are you sure you want to eat 'Kome'?

"Yes."

Yeah, but don't worry about this Rice thing.

You just don't have the courage to do both.

All right, let's try 'Kome' today.

Next up is' Rasu '.

"How much do you need?

"In one sachet"

It's unclear how long it's in there, but given its size, there 'll be enough to cook three times for one person.

I'm a little nervous considering it fails, but if it's not enough, you can come back and buy it.

"Wait a minute, refined wheat... refined rice? I will."

"Yes, please"

I see, the grander you are, the better things you get through.

Well, they'll think you're a kid who acts pretty weird.

Speaking of which, how do you do precise rice?

I waited, but I was concerned, so I chase after the shopkeeper who moved to the next room.

When I look at it, I put the rice with the wax in it like a box and I'm swinging it to the left and right.

Hmm?

I wonder what that is.

"Hmm? What's up?

"No, I was wondering how to do precision rice"

"I use a box of magic items. Because it does not produce heat, it has a reputation for not escaping the flavour of" Mugi ".... I don't know if it works for Kome."

If it's rice in my imagination, I'm pretty happy with the precision rice method.

And I said it before.

So I guess there's no problem.

"You kept me waiting."

"Thank you"

Shit.

I bought it before asking the price.

What if it's very expensive?

"25 dals."

"What, ah yes. Now."

I was surprised at how cheap it was.

Could it be that it tastes terribly bad?

Hey, I'm getting scared.

"Ahhh."

"Yes?"

Looks like the owner is wondering if he wants to say something.

I'm opening and closing my mouth.

I waited a while.

"No, it's nothing"

"Really? Thank you."

I have to try it first.

If I could eat this, I'd be so happy.

I can keep my food costs down.

... If it tastes so bad, well, I can't help it.

Give up and try Rice.

Return to the square and start making dinner for the day after tomorrow.

The meat I bought is a chunk of grubal meat.

I'm going to simmer this carefully.

Cut the vegetables to simmer with and add to the pan.

Add water and light a fire.

Cook the surface of the meat by boiling.

Just a little, scrape the meat to make sure it tastes like meat.

Like the store guy said, you have a little teeth.

The flavour is delicate, contrary to the appearance of Gulbal.

It has a flavour, and this looks pretty promising.

I put a chunk of meat in the pot...... glad I bought one pot for 4 people.

After that, just simmer carefully.

The only thing to season is salt first.

Let's taste vegetables and meat in the end.

"Well, rice."

Uh, wash it as a previous memory, soak it in water, cook it?

Cook over high heat, turn to low heat...... steam?

... That's going to be kind of a huge challenge.

Let's just wash the rice and soak it in water.

I wonder how much time you can marinate it?

I tried soaking it for an hour anyway, but are you okay?

So you cook next, right?

Uh, strong fire at first... can I put a lid on it?

Is the amount of water enough for rice to soak thoroughly?

Well, we'll figure it out.

Let's cook today's rice while we're cooking.

Oh, it's going to blow, should I make it weak?

The lid... can I keep it like this?

I have rice, so I guess I can fry the slices of Gulbal meat and the vegetables.

"... yeah, that's a failure"

Pretty soft cooked rice in the pot.

Looks like there was too much water.

Or was it a long time to soak?

In the meantime, I know how it tastes, okay?

The way to cook deliciously is from now on, from now on.

A few times and you'll get the hang of it.

"I'll take it."

I'm a little thrilled.

'Cause it was so cheap.

One mouth.

... Is that it?

It might taste normal, but it was softer than it looked.

This is too much water.

Nevertheless, it resembles the taste in memory.

This could be good.

Ah, I want some rice balls.

Bowls are good, too.

Ugh, one image after another in my head......

Looks like I'm running wild inspired by the taste of rice before.

I'm a little scared of the first time, but you're gonna have to wait until you calm down.

"Heh, calm down. Good."

And I used to like rice a lot.

Well, it's delicious.

"Thank you very much."

Still, rice would be nice.

A rice balls in a floating image?

That might be good for lunch.

"Well, before you do, you have to be able to cook it deliciously."

Eat it. Okay, but the moisture content is pretty important when cooking, right?

I'm a little surprised I've never been aware of the amount of water when cooking before.

Rice is delicate.

I wonder if it's easier to tell the amount of water or make a special cup.

Amount of water relative to the amount of rice.

I have to repeat this and know how to add and subtract it.

It could be a little rough until you can cook it deliciously.

I'm going to be a regular customer of that store.

"Speaking of which," Kome, "" Rasu, "" Mugi, "" Komugi "? If you look, you may have a name that better matches your memory."

Come to think of it, it's not strange that beings like me have been in the past.

Because the fortune teller told me, without any particular surprise, 'it's better to keep it to yourself'.

Besides, it's none of my business if you were there.

It must have been a long time ago that the name was so pervasive.

No more problems than not now.

Well, let's go set a trap in the woods tomorrow.

It's likely that Gulbal will break it, but I still can't rely on Ciel.

... so that the prey goes into the trap, I make a push...

Well, that's it.
