Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

Our three backpacks filled up after two more dindle trees.

Along the way, Aela recommended that a good amount of vanilla could also be collected in the woods, so the result may not have been bad.

"Well, it's a little late, do you want to come in at noon?

"Right. For once, as an appointment, you're going home hunting a task bore on your way home, right?

"Oh. It's going to be a battle for once, and you'd better keep your stomach full before you do."

We found a little Taku "Hira" place and we sat down.

The backpack packed with dindles is a little heavy, but to this extent I am working out my body to the point that I am not tired.

It's not the same as when you come to this world, so I guess it's never in vain that you continue to train every day.

"Um, why don't you eat this, if you like?

Three fist-large round objects, wrapped in leaves, were offered.

"Oh, that's the guy who said we should sell it back home, right?

"Yes, one for all of you, I've made"

"" Thank you ""

When I received it and peeled the leaves, what came out was the meat-rolled mashed potatoes I ate yesterday.

It was a little warm when I ate it yesterday, but instead of being cold, this was accented by the scent of leaves that were rolled up, which is pretty tasty.

"Delicious."

"Yeah, I knew I could sell this! If Aela's store is close, I'll go buy it every day ~"

"Yeah, it's delicious. The smell of these leaves also works."

"Thank you"

Aela is complimented by us and dyes her cheeks with joy.

At first glance, he's like a kid, but he's a pretty awesome cook. [Cooking], it was level 3.

With more varieties of condiments and stuff, wouldn't you be able to cook more amazing dishes?

"In return, I'll give you our bread and dried meat. The dried meat is homemade, so it's delicious.

Yuki offers confidently, but is subtle for the purpose he sees.

Because it's just dried meat.

Of course, it's delicious only for what Haruka made.

"What, are you homemade? I used to make it at my parents' house too... Hmm!? Yummy..."

"Right! It's not like what you're selling in there!

"I bought this bread at the inn, but it's okay."

"... oh, really. All the bakeries I visited were less than this."

It was Aela who toured several bakeries wondering if she could buy the bread to serve at the store, but she couldn't find the bread to wear her glasses and eventually decided to bake it in front of herself.

I didn't get the bread out at lunch because it's hard to serve a lot when I make it myself, so I decided not to put it on a thin profit lunch.

Aela didn't make it clear, but she seems to taste better than this bread, so I'd like to try it if I get a chance.

"Was the dried meat made by Yuki?

"No, not here today. The other one, an elf named Hulka, made it"

"Oh, you're one of them, that there's another one. The meat itself is good, but the cooking arm is pretty good, isn't it?

"I think he'd be happy to have the pros say that."

Indeed, I think Hulka's [cooking] was level 1, so the skill itself does not extend to Mr. Aela at all.

The advantage is that you have a lot of knowledge of the original world's cuisine?

For example, it would be easier for an amateur who knows the flavour of a curry to formulate it so that it is closer to that flavour than a professional cook who doesn't know the curry gets there anew.

"I'd like to meet that person. If possible, I'd like to cook with you."

"With a little spare time, maybe we'll have a chance. - Time to go."

"Right. I've never been home early."

I made sure everyone was finished eating and when I said so, they all nodded and got up again to take charge of their luggage.

"After that, you can go home if you hunt for the task bore..."

"Do you do that well? It wasn't much of a local prey."

"I'm fine. I'm good at finding it. - Okay. Me and Aella will be ahead of you, so you two need to come back a little bit."

"Understood."

Me and Mr. Aella would have [sneaky feet], so it would be hard to find.

Because they don't have it, I thought, but I feel uncomfortable walking out relatively quickly.

I can barely feel any sign of the nuts that should be behind me.

As opposed to Yuki figuring it out clearly.

- Speaking of which, you had [Concealed Lv.2].

Whereas my [sneaky foot] is the kind of skill that erases footsteps, Natsuki's [hidden form] is probably the kind of skill that hides the signs.

Which is more useful will depend on the situation, but seems pretty useful when hiding or something.

"Oh, I see it. Mr. Nao, shall I take the lead?

What I saw at the end of the forest was a task bore a little larger than a medium one.

From the size we usually hunt, would we fall into a slightly smaller category?

"Right. Please."

"Understood."

Aela replied so, wondering if she had climbed quickly onto the tree on the side, with a bow in place and immediately unleashed an arrow.

At the same time, I also signal Nutski to run toward the pig.

A hog screaming at a sudden attack. And two spears piercing at about the same time.

Duh and falling pigs.

Yes, me and Natsuki's spears were almost simultaneous. I was walking a few steps ahead of me, but they caught me.

The spear skill won't reduce the distance, so it would be a simple physical difference.

I don't think you can lose if you're simple quick, but including your strength to run in the woods is apparently a little inferior to Natsuki.

Is this what you call racial difference...... yeah, let's work out.

Even if it's inferior to the basic value, you can handle it if you work out.

Well, if Natsuki strives to the same extent, the difference is more likely to spread given the race difference.

"Both of you, that's quick"

"You're an adventurer for once. Either way, I think Aela would be more amazing if she was a cook."

Mr. Aela's unleashed arrows were shooting through the pig's eyes precisely.

It would have been quite effective in terms of behavioral inhibition, although it did not seem to be significant in terms of muscle weakness or damage.

"I used to go hunting. Supporting pigs of this size was the main thing."

'I was good at catching birds,' he said, smiling nicely.

Hulka also shoots through birds accurately, but as for me, who struggled quite a bit using magic the other day, I know how difficult that is.

Mr. Aela, I wonder if you can be a professional on this side of the spectrum.

"Shall we dismantle it then? Shall I? I'm used to it."

"Um, please."

I glance at Yuki and Natsuki and ask Mr. Aela to make sure the two of them snort.

"Understood."

When Aela takes the knife out of her own backpack, she dismantles the pig with a very vivid hand.

It's not working, it's better than the best of us, Hulka.

Exact peeling, cutting meat and packing it in our offered leather bags.

"You're so used to it."

"Yep. I went hunting locally, and even at a training destination, because the branches were fairly easy to handle. Treating meat is basic."

In Japan, meat treatment would be a butcher's job, and in many restaurants it would be normal for meat to be delivered already sliced.

But in this world they seem to buy it in a state of branched meat.

Is it still a matter of preservation technology?

It would be a little risky to slice and sell in this underdeveloped world of supply chains so that minced meat is easily damaged.

Even regular cooks need meat demolition skills, which is quite a hurdle.

But thanks to Mr. Aela's skill, the boned meat that we would leave behind also turns into block meat, which eliminates the need to bring back wasted bones.

However, some of the gut parts that we usually discard seem to be recovered, and for that matter, the amount increases, so it may not change as much as the total.

It's the heart and liver you're retrieving, is that the kidney? And your tongue!

Speaking of which, you didn't recover the array. I've had pig tongue before.

Besides, he also takes meat from around the back of his neck.

My head looks arry, so I buried it as it was, but there's a place where I can get out of here, I guess.

For once, I had thought that pigs are pig companions, so I guess they can eat ears and nose too, but since they are not good for the purpose I saw them, I never intended to recover them.

"Can anyone use the magic of the water system?

"Uh, that's Halka, who hasn't been here today."

"Really? Then will you give up your stomach or intestines? I don't like to take it home without washing it."

The digestive organs need to be carefully washed, and if you do poorly, other meat will be contaminated, so it seems to be handled with caution.

In other words, the amateur tells you not to put your hands on it.

"All right, it's done. Then let's hurry home. Over time, the meat will no longer taste good."

"Uh, are you sure you want to leave what's left behind? You know, bury it."

Yuki shows pig heads and guts.

Speaking of which, I haven't brought any bamboo today.

You want Yuki to dig a hole?

"Oh, this much, I don't mind. Because forest animals handle it on their own. Of course, if you want to take a break or camp nearby, you have to bury it. It's awkward."

Apparently it was.

When we exterminated the vermin in Japan, he asked if we had to bury it and dispose of it, but in the other world it seemed different.

To say that this whole area is not followed by [common sense of the other world] would be common sense of hunters and adventurers, not common sense?

"Heh, yeah?

"Yes. And then, if it's near people, right? Well, if you can afford it, I think you should bury it."

Aela, who packed a good amount of her own backpack, stood up and offered each of us a leather bag.

It was a little smaller than I assumed, so not even 10 kilos per person?

There will be no problem to this extent.

"All right, then we'll hurry up a little bit. What's your strength?"

"It's okay. I just took a break."

Natsuki answers my question that way and nods as the other two agree.

"Then do you want to go for a little run? Aela, if it's tight, tell me."

"Yes. But maybe it's okay, right?

Aela, who lightly held a pretty heavy carrying bag, said so and smiled.

◇ ◇ ◇

As per my self-declaration, Mr. Aela's health was more than I expected.

Aela said, "Because cooks are physical fights."

Because I prioritized speed, I ran into a goblin once along the way, but with me and Natsuki's spear, and Yuki's iron bars, a piece of it came on lightly.

Mr. Aela's bow was so grainy that he didn't even need our magic.

Goblins are a part of the human form, which makes it a little difficult to do in the mood, but in a way, steeples are easy to understand and aim at.

With a spear, you can poke your brain out of the outrage, or out of your eyes, so it's easier if you're ready.

Yuki and Natsuki had also shot their first goblin opponents without showing hesitation, but should this be rated as temperament?

However, with regard to Goblin's magic stone, this time it is also abandoned for the reason that "time is running out".

If you're going to do it, you're going to crack your head with Yuki's iron bars, but Yuki didn't even tell you to do it, so, well, I guess so.

And we went back to Aela's before evening.
