Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

The roller I ordered from Tommy was, "It takes a few days to complete."

Instead, we were surprised to say that we would be able to do it in a few days, so it's been a long time since we've had a few days off.

It is a better decision to wait for the roller to be completed than to force it to cut the tree and struggle again. Fortunately, we don't have to work to save enough money.

What do we do with a rest day like that...

"Make a sauce!

At the breakfast table, it was Yuki who declared us so before.

"What's the sudden matter, Yuki?

"I thought. Inspirational sauce is certainly delicious. phenomenally in this world in a way. But I'm tired of the same flavor! I want a change!

"Hmm. I see."

The inspirational sauce we use now is used for cooking quite often due to its convenience.

No, it's not actually that versatile of a sauce, but there's no other option, and in a situation where there tends to be a lot of burger bread due to the lack of rice, it's quite a 'fit'.

The Hulkas also made tartar sauce, but it is not an environment where eggs are easily available and cheap, as in Japan, so it is not something that can be used frequently.

"Hey, do we need that, too? I don't think I and Nao can make delicious sauces."

"Agreed. There's no way we can make anything noble like sauce without cooking too much."

"Of course I know. So it's inspirational sauce that you make."

To Yuki's words, me and Toya look at each other and twist their necks.

…… Well, then, nothing's gonna change, is it?

"Chip, look, inspirational sauce changes the flavor depending on what you put in it, right? I was wondering if there would be more variations if each of them included something unique."

"Well, Yuki, you thought of something pretty good, didn't you? Sure, that could be interesting."

"Right?"

With Hulka's consent, Yuki becomes the Doya face.

But it could be a little funny.

The saucy inspirational sauce of choice is also delicious enough, but with variations, the diet will be rich.

Especially in life here, where there is little entertainment other than meals, it is important.

"Natsuki good too?

"Yeah, I don't mind. Looking forward to it a bit....... because of this, shall we make two kinds per person?

"Right! If you make a lot of it, you might be able to make something delicious!

"Well, there are ten of them. I'll have to get a smaller one..."

Thank you. I think I've decided to make the sauce myself.

I don't always have the sauce ready for convenience, so I will need to go to the store where I went to buy it with Aela before.

I've been to that store before, and I was supposed to be in charge in Hulka with me.

"Well, check the rules. Put the inspiration sauce in a cup prepared by Hulka, throw in whatever you like and plant it by the end of the day, tomorrow afternoon, and show it off. You're free to throw things in, but be sure to keep a record. Because if it's delicious, you have to reproduce it."

"The cost you can use to collect ingredients is up to two gold coins combined in two different sauces. I'll take what I spend out of my common expenses."

"I don't mind trying to make it, but will it be done in about two days?

"Let's use a food processor there. Perhaps if you keep it fine enough to become liquid, you'll be fine?

"Right. I just carved it by hand, and it was done in about a week."

The sauce I use at Aela's store, even that giant one, became the sauce in a week.

With that in mind, I do feel like I could do it.

"We're free to use what we want, but we'll keep secrets from each other until it's done. Because it's not funny. Oh, but putting in something you can eat. This, absolutely."

Yuki pinned her fingers and pointed her gaze at me and Toya, but that's natural.

You eat yourself, you spend your money.

- As a result, I don't know if I can get something to eat. in a flavorful sense.

"... Speaking of which, triplets in the EXP doubling system, are those guys good? You're acting alone, and if we meet, you're not gonna make it any trouble, are you?

There were some of those guys. Um, was it Tokuoka or something?

Honestly, it doesn't matter. They're even vague names.

"That's okay. They seem to have left this city."

"Oh, really? He seemed stubborn with the Hulkas..."

"At this time of year, you get less work, don't you? I can't help it anymore, I guess."

The main job that can be contracted out in this city is to escort logging operations that take place in the south woods, but in winter this escort job is reduced.

It seems that timber is better cut out in winter in qualitative terms, but wood dust is classified as a profession with a high income in this city. Because of this, they don't have to work in cold winters.

Of course, there is some serious working wood dust, but that number is less than in spring and fall, and inevitably less escort work.

It is newcomers and less trustworthy adventurers who eat for such a time.

Even from the dust of wood, if you don't have a choice, anyway, if you have extra adventurers, you'll ask a trusted adventurer you've known for a long time.

Is that why newcomers and those who had not earned the trust of wood dust moved to southern towns where they could still afford to work at this time of year?

There will be almost no mistake, as Hulka has received information from Mr. Diola.

If you haven't saved up quite enough, you won't even be able to get past winter in your inn.

By the way, on the hot side in the summer, the trees are not very well suited for cutting out either, so they have the least work to do.

It's none of our business to hire a wooden escort, but I'm guessing this is why adventurers don't stay in this town.

"Then let's split up and head to procure the ingredients. I'll go buy some with Nao and put them on the dining room table, so we can collect each later."

"" "Ooh (yes)" "

◇ ◇ ◇

I was walking around the market by myself when I broke up with Hulka after I bought a bottle.

"I don't care if you say so freely, I'm worried"

In the meantime, let's think about moving away from the sauce-like flavors we like today.

My favorite sauce was dating to make that sweet, but the inspirational sauce makes you sweet by adding imo, right?

First of all, let's not let imoes in.

"Uh-huh, something I couldn't put in last time... don't feel like I didn't have root vegetables?

Vegetables like radishes and mackerel. Ginseng is also root vegetable.

Let's wrap up one type with root vegetables.

Later, a few cheap spices. Root vegetables are also relatively cheap, so the cost of the ingredients purchased for the first batch was less than two large silver coins.

"The other one...... Shall I include the store recommendations?

I feel like the gambling element is huge, but that would be interesting again too.

Speak up in one of the dewstores I quickly noticed.

"Auntie, what do you recommend?

"I recommend all of ours. But this is especially delicious this time of year!

An auntie-like woman from the farmhouse offered vegetables that looked like onions.

... Yeah, but it's out with onions, so I guess it's a breed close to that.

"Just cook it round and salt it, it's sweet and delicious!

"Well, give me three of those."

"Every time! It's one silver coin!

Yeah, cheap. Even though it's about a turn bigger than my grip.

Pay the price to receive the item and go to the next store.

There's a lot of leafy vegetables here. I guess I can't help it to some extent, but it's a little shriveled overall.

If this is the case in winter, leafy vegetables are likely to be harsh to eat in summer.

It's the boy who's doing the store number here. Is it selling on behalf of the parents?

"Hello, can you give me a recommendation?

"Recommended? Right, isn't that good?

That's what the boy pointed to: vegetables loaded in a box in the corner "Sumi".

Looks similar to celery.

Smell that for one hand and it smells a little different than celery but a little stronger.

[HELP] So... 'Bereoge'? They're a little different from celery.

"Maybe this isn't for sale?

"Hey, what do you say, brother! That's not true!

The boy denies it in a hurry, but compared to other vegetables, there is clearly a lot left.

From the smell, it looks a little crummy, and maybe it's hard to sell. I don't think I like kids or anything.

"Maybe... if it sells out, it could be your meal?

He was a boy out of sight for my words, but he shouted as if I were staring.

"... I don't like a meal full of bereoge anymore!

Yeah, it's common.

Well, if it sells out, we'll have to consume it ourselves, more than we've harvested.

It's not something that can be stored for a long time.

"Ha ha! Just sow the bereoge in the corner of the field, because it's easy! It's in every store this time of year."

It was the aunt next door who walked into our conversation laughing.

It's easy to make, and it's just in season, so a farmer would grow it one hassle at a time, and then arrange it in a store.

If you look at it, it's also in my aunt's shop. Do you know that it doesn't sell very well, but the number is small?

"I don't have to know how you feel, but you can't buy this amount, can you?

There are too many ingredients for an inspiration sauce, and even if it is an ingredient for a normal dish, it cannot be bought in bulk because I do not cook it.

"Still good! Give me a little less! Because I discount it."

"Hmm, if you say so much"

A boy bows his head like a plea becomes a little pitiful and I decide to buy a bereoge. I don't like celery either, considering I can feed that one every day...

I don't know the market for Bereoge, but the boy sold me two pieces of silver coins so I could use both hands to grab it.

The aunt next door was grinning at the way it was, but that was against the boy you couldn't sell it to, right?

It wasn't against me, was it?

Even if it's a little expensive, it's not a big deal if it's about two pieces of silver coins, and I don't mind.

I went around 6 more open stores like that and bought one of the recommended products at each store, and I was coming back to my home.

When I went to the kitchen, it was Natsuki who was there.

"Welcome home."

"I'm home. Is that just nuts?

"Yes, Yuki seems to have finished making the purchase already, but Toya and Haruka are not home yet"

"Right."

Hulka and I went shopping for a bottle, and it's taking a while, so will it?

I'm a little concerned about Toya being slow, but, well, he wouldn't have a problem, in terms of safety. I can't trust the part where you say you might buy something that's wrong.

Next to Natsuki steaming something on the stove, I take out the material I've been buying and wash it.

"Can I help you?

"Is that good?

"Yes, I'll just wait a while"

When Natsuki nods at me pointing to the steamer, he helps me wash the vegetables.

I'm curious about what you're steaming, but let's look forward to the day after tomorrow.

I guess the truth is I should keep it a secret too... but don't you need to be so strict?

It's also troublesome to wait until each task is finished.

For once, let's just keep it a secret which one to put in.

"Food processor, can I use it?

"Yes, because I'll take a little longer"

I laugh nicely and take the food processor Natsuki gave me, I move to the dining room, coarsely chop the vegetables and throw them into the food processor, chopping them until they are juicy.

Put it in the two pieces on the table, and at the end, pour in the inspiration sauce.

If the lid is mixed well, the work is complete.

"I'll take this later..."

When I look around, there are two pieces of cake lined up on the desk placed by the window.

On the side of it it is written 'Yuki A' and 'Yuki B' using charcoal.

"I see."

I'll mimic it too, write 'Nao A', 'Nao B' and line it up next to it.

"All you have to do is wait for the day after tomorrow."

Whatever your stuff is, I'm quite excited about what the other four make.

◇ ◇ ◇

The next day we all went out to the city to buy and collect tools for cutting trees.

A large axe with a long pattern and wide blade crossing, which Toya plans to use, has been requested by Mr. Ganz as of yesterday, so buying it today is an additional tool.

We had all the weapons in Mr. Ganz's shop, but Mr. Ganz himself was introduced to the store because he said, "If you have wood-related tools, there are plenty of specialty stores."

"Should I buy three more axes?

"I've ordered Toya's, and it goes with one of my handheld, so I've got all of them for once."

"Right. Saw after that?... Oh, here?

The shop was near Mr. Simon's workshop, in a corner where many woodworking related workshops were gathered.

Once inside, on one side of the wall, there are axes, saws, and things like crust and bars lined up.

"What do you use stuff like that bar for?

"He uses it to roll the whole thing."

The man who answered my question was the man who came out of the back.

A slightly younger middle-aged man than Mr. Gantz. Physically, he's a gassilli, and I guess he's a blacksmith, too.

"Hmm...... apparently an adventurer, what do you want?

"Three axes, and a saw. Should some be big enough for two? Later...... crunchy?

"Right. It felt a little small to have now."

It feels like I've tried it and if that size tree is opponent, it would be more user-friendly to be bigger than two more turns. Considering that some trees were even bigger, it might be better to be bigger.

"Isn't that an axe? If you're gonna cut a tree in the south woods, you better stop, okay? There's a lot of trouble turning the woodcutters against the enemy in this city, and you can't sell them where you cut them."

"Oh, that's okay. Because it's not the South Forest that hangs up."

"What do you mean, the North Forest? If you're an adventurer in this city, think about it once..."

That makes the clerk look sinister.

If we can cut wood out of the north woods, it's like everyone still thinks if we know what's going on in this city.

"Let me tell you something, even if I came to return it, I'd pick it up at a used price, right?

That kind of adventurer was in the past, the clerk stabbing nails at us like that.

By the way, most things in this world are ecological societies to repair and use, so if you don't have enough, you can even sell used products.

It's pretty thorough because it sells worn out old clothes and even the worn cloth "Kiki" that just looks like rubbish no matter how you look at it.

"That's okay. There was a shortage of axes in hand, so I came to buy them."

"Really? Hmm... look at that. If you want to ask, ask."

"Uh... is there a point in choosing an axe?

"Well, when you cut down a tree, it can be somewhat heavy and big, but I don't really recommend it when branching it"

"Why is that?

I came to buy an axe for branching.

"If you want to do it alone, fine, but try slamming a big axe with more than one person on one tree. So if the tree moves, it's dangerous, right? So if your aim goes crazy, you risk getting hurt."

"I see, indeed"

If a tree moves even the moment someone swings the axe down, it could even fall out of the soap and hit its own foot.

If it's a giant tree like that, it won't move that way, but the danger should be avoided.

"It's a good idea to use a saw, not an axe, if possible. Even if the tree moves suddenly, the blade will break."

"Is it a saw? That sounds like a lot of safety."

"Cutting off branches can break the balance, and it's really best to work with it securely fixed... Later on, try not to fall down on someone working with a bar, or something."

They're also quite dangerous for just branching.

I didn't have any particular problems before this, but I do have something to be afraid of when that giant tree rolls over.

Depending on the location, they sometimes work in a way that dives underneath, and can be crushed from the top.

Now that my body has grown stronger, I will not die of some things, but I have never gone beyond caution.

We took the advice of the clerk and picked up the product, and we ended up buying three hand axes instead of a regular axe.

Other than that, I bought four saws and two bars and left the store behind.
