1906 Episode 1906



In addition to the restoration magic sealed gems, when you've finished handing them various souvenirs, including Anesis dishes, you'll find out what they've been doing today.
 However, it was already said that Ray had watched the demolition of the gigant turtleneck and was looking for magic items that were manipulating the cobold, so it was the rest of us who were talking about it.

"I've had free time today, though it seems that Bune had knocked down quite a few Cobolts. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ."

 Such Vichela's words make the others who haven't seen the demolition look a little interesting.
 Elena, Marina and Arra are not the first to see a huge monster.
 Elena had previously been driven to subdue Kraken, and Marina had encountered a variety of monsters when she was an adventurer, many of which were huge monsters.
 Still, it's true that Ray still wanted to see the demolition of the Giant Turtle.

"Well, I'll be free tomorrow, and I'll go and see you. What about Elena and Arra?"
"Well, I suppose you'd better see it for a moment so that no one in the aristocracy could interfere with it. ... And I'd be surprised if I told my father about the case of Gigant Turtle."

 Arra nods back to Elena's words.

"I'll go with you. Fortunately, I have nothing particular to do tomorrow."

 To be exact, there are many who would like to see Elena.
 But it's not urgent and most people want to get to know Elena.
 If you are an aristocrat, you will have a somewhat larger face on the lower side just because you know Elena.
 Even the royal and neutral factions have some influence just because they know Elena.
 Elena, nicknamed General Hime, has so much influence.
 For that reason, those who should be called "imaginary" would like to meet...and, of course, most of them would be simply refused by Arra.
 If there was a really important reason, Arra would tell Elena about it, but it was only natural to decide that there was no problem going to the Giant Turtle tomorrow, given that they were not there.

"Well, if you don't mind, let's go see it tomorrow. ... Ray, are you all right?"
"I don't mind that,"
"Well, if you're looking for a magic item that's manipulating Kobolt, is that so? That's a bit disappointing, but...What will Vichela and Bune do?"
"Me? I... well, it seems that Bune wants to be asked to knock down the monster at the demolition site of the Gigant Turtle, so I'm going to go out with it."

 At the words, Vichela and Bune find out that they are in the process of dismantling the Giant Turtle, and Elena looks a little pleased.

"And what was Marina doing today? I thought she was coming to the Giant Turtle."
"Oh, me? Actually, I'm from a different background, but there's a dark elf in Gilm. He was teaching him a little bit of spiritual magic."
"Dark elf? It's rare... No, it's not."

 Ray, who said Marina's words were unusual, immediately denies it.
 In fact, Ray also has one Elf acquaintance, and even if he doesn't, I've seen some of them in guillem, both Elf and Dark Elf.
 Moreover, more people are gathering now that the building is undergoing extension work.
 Since it's winter now, there are fewer people in Gilm by autumn, but there are still more people are still in Gilm than usual.
 It wasn't particularly strange to have new elves or dark elves among them.

"Well, he's not very good at spirit magic, though he's pretty good at archery."
`...I'll ask you that the Spirited Magic is not based on marina, is it?'

 Ray knows some of the people who use spiritual magic, but Marina's skill is beyond the pale.
 From such a marina's point of view, it would appear that most people are not good at spiritual magic.
 But Marina picks up the cheese on the table and moves it from side to side.
 It was a simple gesture, but Marina's behavior made her aware of a strong woman's charm.
 However, Ray, who has known Marina for quite a long time, had a sense of familiarity and resistance to the glamour of Marina.

"I'm not acting like such a fool. I'm just teaching you how to use spirit magic because he asked me to."

 Marina doesn't seem particularly guilty about telling me so.
 Relieved about it, Ray continues.

"But did you come from a different village than Marina? I'd like to go there someday."
"Dark elf villages are rare for Ray. There are a lot of interesting magic items."

 Marina probably knew Ray's intentions when she said so.
 If you say it's a village of dark elves, you might have magic items... or materials to use for them.
 Given Ray's taste, it was only natural that he wanted to go to the dark elf village.

"Well, and I'm curious about the ingredients."
"... Oak,"

 She must have remembered the time she went to the village of Marina. Vihela looked a little dumbfounded. ... Bune looks at Ray in anticipation, not in his manner when he was talking about jewelry magic.
 When I used to go to the village where Marina grew up, there were quite a few oaks near the village.
 For Ray, oak is a very delicious monster.
 ...it's not delicious in the sense that ingredients and magic stones sell well, but delicious monsters in the sense that they literally eat.
 Ray's mistrings still contain a large amount of oak meat, but they are often eaten on a daily basis because they are caught in large quantities and naturally consume a large amount.
 Ray's true intention was to replenish it if he could, although he still had plenty of room to spare.
 Oaks are stronger alone than goblins and covorts, and above all, they have the intelligence to work with their peers.
 It's a tough opponent for men to fight against, and even more so for women, Oak is a detestable figure that they can find and kill on the spot.
 It was such an oak, but for Ray, it was nothing but delicious meat.

"Well, isn't oak in the way of the dark elves?"
"I don't deny it, but if you're going to catch it, you'd better get a firm consent from the community."

 In the middle of the story, Marina's gaze is directed to a kiln a little further away.
 It was Ray's usual kiln out of the mistling, but today the ingredients were different.
 ... because it's part of the meat of the gigant turtleneck that we've just dismantled today.
 Even Marina, who has been an adventurer for a long time, is eating the meat of her first gigant turtleneck.
 Of course, everyone was very interested in the taste...I had completely forgotten about the jewelry magic.
 However, from the kiln comes an appetizing scent, as if to signal that it's baked.
 Everyone turns to the kiln, even though they have already eaten to some extent.

"I didn't know how to cook it, so for the time being I just tried to cook it with salt... again, it smells quite delicious."

 As she says so, Marina uses spiritual magic to extract the meat from the kiln.
 The meat on the table contains several chunks about the size of a fist.

"I've never eaten a turtle before, so I don't know what it tastes like... but it looks pretty good again."

 Ray says honestly, looking at the meat on the table.
 It's just seasoned with salt, and although it uses some herbs, it's a very simple dish.
 Still, the food seems to be very delicious, perhaps because the finest flavor of the meat itself is mixed with the smell of floating around it.

"First of all... eat it first. It's the meat Ray brought, so it's only natural that Ray should eat it first."Marina nods back to her, saying that no one else disagrees.

(You don't mean to make them taste poisonous, do you?)

 Ray thought so for a moment, but at any rate he could not be happier that he was the first to be told that he could he eat this meat.
 Take a piece of meat on your plate and bite it with a fork instead of a knife.
 The first thing I felt was the taste of salt and the smell of herbs.
 The next moment, however, the taste of meat spreads through your mouth.
 Ray had expected the taste to be similar to that of chicken, as a turtle, but the texture and taste of the chicken were not very good, but they were different from that of chicken.
 That's so much that I don't know how to express it in Ray's vocabulary.
 In fact, Ray has eaten a variety of meat when he was in Japan and since he came to Elgin.
 But for Ray, the meat in his mouth is clearly different from the meat he's eaten.
 The texture is different, the texture of the meat melts in the mouth is different, the taste of the gravy flowing out of it is different, and the aftertaste that spreads in the mouth when you finish swallowing.

(The basic ingredient is... chicken, after all? No, but I don't think so. It tastes like chicken like Hinai or Karakitori at least.)

 Ray's father had a variety of chickens because he was fighting.
 Among them, chickens such as Hinaichi chicken, which is famous as one of the three major local chickens in Japan, and crowbone chicken, which is very nutritious and delicious in China, were kept.
 They are chickens that are kept purely to eat, not to fight, so Ray has naturally helped or eaten them.
 All of them are definitely delicious meat, but the meat of the gigant turtleneck is more... than anything else.

"It's delicious."

 After all, that's the only word that comes out of Ray's mouth.
 But you must have understood that Ray's words were delicious enough.
 Others, including the cooked marina, take the meat from the gigant turtles on their plates and eat them.
 It was only Bune who, like Ray, bites directly, cut the meat firmly with a knife and carried it to his mouth.
 The taste and texture of the meat you've tasted in that way stop everyone from moving.
 Even Elena, Duchess of Kelebel, and Vihela, Princess of the former Vestian Empire, can't express their impressions of the taste they'
 Seth and Yero, who eat meat on a plate on the ground, are also concentrating on the taste of the meat, without a single cry of wonder.
 Ray also carries the meat to his mouth without saying anything more.
 Everyone just said nothing, tasted the meat of the gigant turtleneck... until it was all gone.

"...it's gone,"

 Marina muttered regretfully at the loss of all the meat on the table.
 Still, the reason I wouldn't say whether to grill it again was probably because I thought that once I did that, I would eat up the meat endlessly.

"Well, for the time being, it has become clear that the meat of the gigant turtleneck is very good meat. Now that we know that, I think that's enough."

 Marina nods to Ray's words.
 Vichela looks regretful, and surprisingly even Bune, who usually doesn't change her expression, looks regretful.
 Elena and Arra were also a little disappointed, but they didn't end up saying anything... tasting the fresh bread and soup Ray had taken out of the Mistilling.
