Dropped into Another World…

Chapter 55 - Fluffy’s Special Skill?….Let’s Make Something For Now

I want soy sauce.

However, soy sauce can’t be made without soybeans.

Impossible.

Then, is there any kind of seasoning I can make with what I presently have?

-0-

There’s a lake. There should be fish there, right?

If I have fish, I should be able to make fish sauce.

From what I watched on TV, to make some, I should mix fish and salt and ferment it….

That should be smelly but it’s worth a try.

For now, let’s go to the lake.

—Scene Change—

I came to the lake and it’s very wide.

I can’t see any curses and it’s something refreshing to see.

So, are there fishes in this lake?

-0-

….I can’t see any from the bank.

What should I do?

How about using a fishing rod?

How do I make one?

-0-

The rod can be made of wood and as for the thread, I’ll ask three eyes.

The rest are hook and bait….

Hook….this is quite a problem.

-0-

Hio and Kurou came with me and they are watching over the place.

Thanks.

-0-

Fluffy looks the same today.

For some reason, Fluffy has been flying around restlessly since morning.

What’s wrong?

-0-

Fluffy, fluffy, fluffy.

Ehto, it’s kind of disturbing to fly around before me.

Are you trying to tell me something?

It’s harder to read its movement. Harder than boss-san and Shuri.

?Fluffy, I want to catch some fish.?

Hearing what I said, it turned away from me and moved its wings for some reason.

Ah, this is the first time I see its wings moving.

Then, it flies towards the distant part of the lake.

-0-

And jumped in.

Is it okay?

-0-

The lake glowed blue and something was thrown out of the lake.

It looks like it will land in front of me.

-0-

I see. Fluffy is good at catching fish.

I thought it was just a small fish.

When it arrived in front of me, I saw a 5m long fish splashing.

This is the thing that Fluffy catches for me.

?Haha, thanks. You helped me a lot??

I caught a fish!

Let’s grill it.

—Scene Change—

I caught the big fish with my hand and….cut its head on the spot since I don’t know how I should deal with it.

The internal organs are unnecessary too so I obliterated them.

I cool it with magic and use time stop.

I move it by floating in the air.

-0-

All thanks to magic.

-0-

I cut the big fish and washed it cleanly.

Since this is a trial product, I’ll use 1/6 of the fish first.

-0-

I don’t know how much salt to use too.

It should be quite a lot so how about 20% of the fish?

-0-

But, how should I measure the amount of salt?

Imagination imagination.

Impossible.

That’s too rash.

-0-

Let’s just do our best using eye measurement.

I made a container using silver ore and cleaned it.

When I cut the fish, blood gushed out.

Because of that, I drained it using magic.

It’s great that I’ve already made a lot of salt.

-0-

I put it in the container and added some salt.

I close the lid. Now, all I have to do is wait a year or two.

I can only force time to go in the container for three months at a time using magic.

I use it repeatedly until the 4th time.

It should have fermented already.

-0-

I open the lid….ah, the unique smell.

I was surprised because this is only my first try.

I filtered it using a cloth.

It became a clear brown liquid.

-0-

I think it’s a little salty but it is still acceptable.

I grilled meat and put a little on it. It’s good.

Koa and the others are eating like there’s no tomorrow.

There was even a conflict between her and Shuri and the battle terrified the antlings.

-0-

The fish is seasoned with salt and grilled.

 I’ve finally eaten fish after a long time. There’s no peculiar smell of a river fish and it’s quite delicious.

I want rice.
