　The scouting of the Great Spirit of Snow was successful. We immediately guided him to a floating island where we wanted snow to fall, and asked him to settle in. The original form of the Great Spirit of Snow was a huge snow leopard, and it seemed to have the majesty and power of a great spirit. Soon it became small and lost its dignity and power. .......

"Well, let's do it again today!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's nice that you're having fun, but I think Yuta is making the wrong effort."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After finishing breakfast and sending Belle and the others off, I got ready to do my best again today, and Sylphy gave me a sharp rebuke in a disgusted voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't worry, I'm aware of it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I am fully aware that my efforts are going in the wrong direction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What I am doing now is not a bad thing, but I cannot deny that there are other things I should be doing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it's okay because I want to do it. Yes, a potato stew party!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Great Spirit of Snow turned a floating island in the sky into a snow island, which became a good playground for Belle and the other spirits visiting the paradise.

　The Great Spirit of Snow is just lounging around in the depths of the giant camakura, fascinated by the magical cushion, but he is satisfied that he has done a good job.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And watching the little ones playing covered in snow, my desire for the pot has been very high.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I want to surprise them, and then I want to bite into the hot potatoes with huffing and puffing in the cold.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, I heard that taro stew is usually eaten outdoors in the fall, so it might be different to do it in a place where snow is falling all over the place, but I think it is the best luxury we can have in this hot continent, in paradise.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's why I must succeed in making konnyaku, which I hesitated to do because I thought it would be too difficult!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So far, I've failed three days in a row. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But everything is going well except for the konjak. The taro was easy to prepare because Dolly knew about it. The other vegetables are also doing well. Miso and soy sauce are ready.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had a hard time explaining the konjak potato because I didn't know it well myself, but I managed to get there with the thin knowledge that it is poisonous in a strange way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In this world, they are just poisonous potatoes and not considered to be food. For a moment, I thought it might be good for business.　I thought about it, but gave up the idea because it would be difficult to spread delicious konnyaku dishes in a world where neither miso nor soy sauce is distributed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As for the pots and pans, I checked with Mel and Nomos, and they said that Mel can make even a huge pot for stewing potatoes with the assistance of Nomos, so I have already placed an order.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, the training in Damascus + the making of the corruption cushion after the training + the making of the huge pot have put a lot of burdens on me, and as a result, Meral asked me not to complain since Mel was enjoying herself, but to consider her physical condition, and Merylserio gave me a pout.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This was my mistake because I was only thinking about the sweet potato stew. Meraru's earnest words touched my heart, and the smack from the baby was more damaging than I had imagined.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Worst of all, I can cook without konjak, but I want to cook oden someday, and I feel like I've lost a lot of things, which is why I want to make the taro stewing party a perfect success.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, my current challenge is important even if I have other things to focus on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......Well, you can do whatever you want."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps because she saw me so determined and motivated, Sylphy cheered me on. I think I looked a little thrown together, but it was probably just my imagination.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So I'm making konnyaku again today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's a reckless challenge based on vague knowledge I've seen on TV, but with Ruby's help yesterday, I'm feeling that I'm getting closer to success.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Today is the day!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We move to the kitchen and prepare the dishes, recalling the previous steps.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First of all, of course, the konnyaku potato.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At first, I had Dolly take out the poison from the potatoes, but some ingredients of the poison might be necessary to make konnyaku, so we use the potatoes as they are in their natural state.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, the water was filtered by Dine after the straw ashes were added.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have no idea why we need water with straw ashes in it, but that's what I saw on TV, so I have it ready.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I heard that it is used to remove the bad smell of wild vegetables, so maybe it has some effect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had already gotten this far from the beginning.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The only thing I could remember to do was to grate and mix the lye, and I didn't know how much and when to mix it, and after a lot of trial and error, I was in despair.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then came Ruby, who had time on a day when there were no visitors in paradise. After listening to my vague knowledge and explanation of the finished product, she was able to get me one step closer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　All that was left was to finish the konnyaku, but Ruby, my reassuring helper, had run out of time and was now waving her arms in the cafeteria of paradise.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, we have to do it on our own. I have the procedure written down, and all I have to do is to follow it, but I'm just so anxious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, even if I do it on my own, I'm still going to need some help from the spirits.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Sylphie-sensei, please..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't have a choice."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sylphy looks a little uncomfortable. Well, I know why, since she asked me the other day.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Yuta, lately I feel like you only use my power for moving or cooking, is it my imagination?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When he said that to me, I could only reply that he was right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This time, too, I asked him to peel konnyaku potatoes, but was it something that the Great Spirit could do?　I would say no.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I have no choice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At first I tried to do it on my own, but my hands became extremely itchy when I touched the konnyaku potato.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I asked Moon to help me and he did, but I don't want to have that itch anymore. I just wonder why I get a rash when my level has been raised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sylphy waves her hand lightly, and the konnyaku potato floats up in the wind, its skin peeling off like it's being melted away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Wonderfully convenient. That's why I always ask for it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's your turn, sister!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I haven't called her yet, but Deanne showed up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is indeed Dene's turn, but she is not so doubtful about cooking with the power of the Great Spirit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Is it a personality problem or a difference in the frequency of requests?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hmm?　I remember when I was making straw ashes, I had an if nearby to burn them for me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Dolly grew the konnyaku potatoes.　Is the konjak I am making now a konjak that has the power of the Great Spirits of Wind, Water, Fire, and Forest gathered together?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... It won't taste the same, but it looks like an awesome konjak. I must try to finish it!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Deanne, please.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Buu, you have to call me teacher, too."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Teacher?　...... I remember the first time I called Sylphy a teacher. Deanne, how long have you been on call?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Deanne, please."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Leave it to me, doctor!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Deanne, puffing her chest out. Sounds fun, but if you add a teacher character to a big sister character, I'm afraid you'll be inundated with attributes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, it looks like fun. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Deene waves her hand, water covers the peeled konnyaku potato and it starts spinning like a tornado.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The water flow crushes the konnyaku potato into pieces. ...... In short, it's a mixer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Whew! You did a great job!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The liquid of the crushed konnyaku potato mixed with water tops into the bowl, and Dine wipes the sweat from her forehead with her arm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I am tempted to say to her, "I'm sure you didn't sweat," but I'm sure she did a good job, so I'll keep my mouth shut.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Now it's my turn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I pour the lye into the liquid of the konjak potato a little at a time, stirring it with a spatula.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This process would be easy if I asked Sylphy or Dine to do it for me, but I do it myself because I don't think I'll get any sense of accomplishment if I don't do it myself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As you mix the lye and knead, the liquid becomes stickier and stickier. It's a tough job, but it's not a problem for me now that my level and physical strength have improved.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you keep on kneading, the liquid will become sticky and slippery at the end.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is where I failed yesterday. I was overjoyed that it was finished, and then I thought, "What?　Something white and different?　Oh yeah, boil it!　After a trial and error process, I ended up with something slightly different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, relying on Ruby, I tried to find out the cause of the problem. I was sure that I had boiled them, but the liquid had not been blended yet, had it?　Ruby came up with this result.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have no idea, but I'm sure Ruby, with her incredibly long culinary experience, is right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I think the white color is probably due to the fact that ifs burned the straw until it was perfectly white, so the konnyaku did not get any color. Maybe .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, I'm taking a break till noon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is this ...... good enough?　Maybe it looks ...... okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Not much has changed in terms of appearance, but it's hard not to feel a sense of calm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The water is already boiling, so all I have to do is cut them into pieces and boil them. I'm still afraid to touch them directly, so I ask Sylphy to cut them into rectangles for me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sylphie, please!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Where's the doctor?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... Sylphy surprisingly liked being called teacher.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Sylphy-sensei, please!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I can't help it. Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The wind blows the konnyaku into rectangular pieces. I think it's a wonder that the bowl is not damaged in any way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you, Sylphie.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then I just throw them in hot water, boil them, and they're probably done.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have a rough idea of how long it will take to boil after my last failure. When they swell up and float to the surface, it's time to raise them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's done!　Look, Sylphy, Dene, it's whiter than I thought it would be, but it looks pretty good!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Congratulations?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm glad you're so happy, Yuta!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh?　Isn't he reacting a bit thin?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Both of you are slow to react.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I've been thinking this since I was making it, but it doesn't look good at all."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I think so, too, sister!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Uh, yeah. It's good food, you know?　But it's a little different ...... from being the main attraction, isn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The konjak I had in Gunma was seriously delicious, and is an important ingredient that is indispensable for Oden.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is very tasty with wasabi and soy sauce, but I must say that it is weak compared to dragon steaks and various fried foods.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......Why did you make it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's not a main ingredient, but it's a very good supporting ingredient."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I love it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They don't seem to be interested at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, it may not be the most spectacular ingredient, but konnyaku goes very well with sake, don't you think?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Come on, Yuta, let's try it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'll go with you, sister!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... Genie is so easy.
