I finish my lunch at the Real and log in again. I leave the room and go downstairs and am approached by the clerk.

'Are you going out now?　What do you think we'll do with the food?

I've realized since you told me that me and Lily were both fighting to the edge of fullness, so it's a red zone. And I'm interested in cooking in the game world.

'Please, please,'

I got it. Take any empty seat you can find.

We sat down at an empty seat as we were told and waited for our food.

'Rice - rice~ rice~'

The food comes while Lily is excited to hear it's dinner.

Our time stopped when we saw the food. There were three dishes. I appraised each of them.

Gome with a core (inferior): rarity level 1 dish Quality F-.
Effect: Restore 10% of fullness
A dish that fails to cook gome.
Doesn't upset your stomach, but it doesn't taste good.

Charred Boer Meat (inferior): rare level 1 Dish Quality F-.

A dish of overcooked boer meat.
The taste of the meat is gone, only the taste of charcoal is present.
Can be eaten.

Drainage: rare level 1 Dish Quality F-.

Nukojirushi seaweed in water.

But wait. This isn't good enough!

First of all, Gome ...... this is not white rice, although I suppose you could call it rice, but it looks more like brown rice. However, it has a core as described in the appraisal. You'll need to be brave enough to eat it.

Next, the charred boa meat ...... would look like a black blob without being appraised. I doubt it's food.

Lastly, the water soup ...... is full of complaining points. I'm sure they want to call it miso soup, but it's just catnip or catnip ...... in water. It is no longer a mystery whether it can be called a dish. It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for. In a way, it was the dish that I was most hesitant to eat.

"Are we going to eat this?　Tact.

Lily looks up at me with tears in her eyes. I know how she feels, but I don't want her to look at me there. You have to eat the food served to you, that's what I learned from someone who is also my cooking master. If you want to follow that, you have to eat it. But I asked the waiter if all the food in this world is like this.

'No way. You'll get proper food in a proper restaurant.

So, the food here is...

'Haha ....... Well, it makes you wonder. We used to hire kids with cooking skills here too, but those with cooking skills have disappeared because it's more profitable to open a restaurant.

Okay, so we were talking about the innkeeper's food being prepared by people who don't know how to cook. It's a sad world, both in real life and in games. But then I made a suggestion: "Can't you rent a kitchen?

"Can't you rent a kitchen for us?

'What?　You can do it, but ...... can you cook, customer?

I don't have any cooking skills, but I do have boer meat.

I see. Well, I'll give you a special pass.

Oh. It's worth a shot. But I thought a special permit was usually reserved for the manager.

"I'm your mooch.

So the waitress was actually the manager: ....... Nevertheless, he gave me permission and showed me to the cooking area. Then there was a regular cooking area there. To be honest, I was imagining a ragged ....... Sorry.

If you turn on the faucet, you can turn on the water. There are old wooden cutting boards, knives, wooden bowls, and frying pans. And I found a seasoning. It's salt. I think I can cook boar meat with this. I got an apron and started to cook.

When I took out the boa from my inventory, it appeared on the cutting board as a block of meat. I'll have to bleed this one out.

First, I put water in a bowl. Next, I put some salt in the bowl and it's ready to go. I wash the boa meat in the bowl filled with salt water. Then blood comes out of the boa meat. People who can't do this kind of thing would be out. It is possible to make this kind of grossness invisible in the setting, but unfortunately, I am used to it because I am a part-timer, so it is left as it is.

When the blood stops coming out, I take it out of the bowl. Normally, I would soak it in various things to get more of the smell out, but I can't do that because I only have salt. Next, I finally cut the boa meat into 5mm thick slices. After that, the grilling process begins. The manager turned on the fire magic and grilled the boar meat in a frying pan. Since it is boar meat, it is cooked well on both sides. Finally, I seasoned it with salt and it was done.

And so here is the result.

Baked Boar Meat: Rare 2 Cooking Quality F-
Effect: Restore 25% of fullness
Boa meat seasoned with salt and grilled.
The meat is well bled and tastier than normal boa meat.

Even the bleeding and salt seasoning is mentioned in the description. Okay, so let's get a taste of it: .......

Jeez.

When I was about to eat, I was attacked by the manager and the gaze of Mr. Moch and Lily. When it came to Lily, she was drooling.

''Uh ...... would you like some?''

"Eat!

They say that and take a bite of my roasted meat. I try it too.

"It's delicious~!

They say that to me. That's all it takes to make it worthwhile. I was somewhat disappointed with the results. Compared to modern cuisine, it is still not as good as it should be. However, for those who like the unique smell of wild boar meat, it may be just fine. Then, an infographic came on.

''Your cooking skills have been released.''

Oh no, the cooking skill has been released. The cooking skill can now be acquired, but it's obviously not a skill suitable for combat. It takes 3 skill points to obtain it.
