015 – Cream (1/2)
“Umu” I muttered, how many times did do this today?
Before orori~)
It’s now early afternoon of the 5th day since I came to this different world
After finished cleaning the tablewares and e today as daily routines, I wasdried meats
My idle talk take too long, surprisingly the meat I dried didn’t become a dried meat, the meat become smoked meat
Roughly explaining, rub the surface of giba’s omunokimodoki leaves (Now that I think about it, I haven’t confirmed it’s official naht of the third day The nextthe meat on a tree outdoor and burn riro herbs and piko leaves under it and then smoke it away until the sun rise to the iba meat is ready to be served
(TL note : ゴムノキモドキ : gomunokimodoki)
So, today was theof the 4th day, I was entrusted with the task of finishi+ng sh the said work is very si firewoods and herbs and also not to let the fire died But because I have to watch the fire for several hours, it’s not easy by any means
But still, there are no unexpected things happening until the sun reach the e amount of smoked meats safely
While waiting for Ai Fa’s return fro works for everyday use as usual, I stored the finished smoked meats in the preserved meat space, work completed
After doing that until mid day, I devote myself to study poitan from early afternoon until dusk
This tih there is still a iba has to be hunted once in 5 days pace in order to obtain aria and poitan So, I am here with free ti, it’s like that
Of course, what I iba in these 5 days Because the mouth that has to be feed increased because of iba to now, it’s probably not that easy to hunt theuess
Though there is also that giba we hunted 5 days ago (although it’s an unexpectedly bad situation), Ai Fa said that it’s not a problem if it isn’t hunted today or tomorrow
And then there is me
It’s been 4 days since the day where I first disiba I always devote myself to study this poitan on the early afternoon everyday It was quite a formidable opponent
If I have to say it directly, I don’t knohat this guy’s identity is
In my world, I don’t think this plant exist, I think
Externally, it looks like a potato
It has a lighter shade and the size is bigger, but the texture and the shape on its surface feels the same as potato
However the contents is completely different
When I bit it raw, the astringency was terrible, taste like flour, this is so that should not be eaten To the point it make me doubt whether this is actually a plant or not I can’t taste any moisture and flavour
So, as you know, this guy melts when it’s boiled
It becomes half-liquid, and it tastes like a tasteless muddy water
Even if it was put in the “giba soup” I created, there isn’t any improveuy that I need to take so 4 days until today, after I atesoup and drank it
Even though e with vegetables and udon inside a pot, this is just soa, somehow I feel miserable
Because of that, I am troubled
I still haven’t found a countermeasure
I have gotten perh I tried various things, It was useless
It it’s boiled, it will collapses into a muddy substance
If it’s burned, It will collapses to pieces
Even if it’s put into water, there doesn’t seees
When it get fried with grease, it beco powderlike
Other than that, I also tried grounding it, roasting it without fat, or exposing it to the sun, I tried anything I can cohtenment yet
“Umu!” When I raised my voice like that
My head got chopped from behind
“You’re too noisy Can you not ?”
Of course, it’s Ai Fa
Looks like she isn’t going to the forest like usual today, she see in the back shed, but apparently the business is finally finished Though as usual dressing only with light clothing that covers her breast and waist and standing with an intilare at me
“It hurts… It’s not like I want to…” When I said that, I just noticed Ai Fa holds soe on her arms
What is that? It’s a bunch of cloth with beautiful color shades
I wonder if she notices aze, She spread one of them
“These are clothes that my father left behind”
I see It looks like a sleeveless with bare front clothing, It’s the so-called vest
(TL:need help How to describe the clothing The clothes is like Disney’s aladdin's clothes)
There are no buttons, it was h the design is simple, as expected there are multi colored and complex spirals, It’s actually in quite small in size
“Ho hou, It’s good I aood on Ai Fa”
I answered what came into my mind, but Ai Fa’s cheek reddens for some reason
“HoHow can I wear this kind of clothing! Certainly I a” as the patriarch of this house, but I am still a women!”
“Eee? I didn’t said to only wear that!”
I don’t knohether it really is a vest or not, but this looks similar to what Aladdin wore, it’s a vest without front cover design, If she wears that vest that has no breast cover…It’s out, an out Do you really dislike thinking about decency
“Of course if you wear it, it will be on top of the clothes you are wearing now! In the first place, So it like a man is…”
“I said you are too noisy! This is, clothes for you!”
She explode and throwing a tantru time, and then Ai Fa throw the clothes on my face
“Your clothes stands out too ether with you!”
I see I can see hohite cooking clothes greatly attracts attention, I realized it thisat the water source
And because I don’t have any other clothes to change while washi+ng, I wear T-shi+rt and cooking attire every day, and when it comes to pants and trousers, I had no choice but to wear it even though it’s wet after I wash it
This place’s teh so it will only take a few hours, but as a precaution, because it’s a life where I don’t knohen concentrated rain like a squall coive up…It’s just that, the pure white cooking clothes is gradually beco more dirty because my work in the forest, it makes me feel sad
That’s why, I lower ry because of that
“II will gratefully accept this But, isn’t this important?”
“This is also so that father left behind”
I receive it silently
A penknife with length about 20 cm sheathed in a patterned leather sheath
When I re and back blade are sharpened to the point it was shi+ning beautifully
“Can I…also use this?”
“I just lends it to you! It’s troublesome for lect the knife’s maintenance and the blade becomes dull and rusty, I will cut your ear off!”
“I understand Thanks I arateful I will never handle your father’s memento shabbily I promise”
Although Ai Fa sulk and face the other way, she doesn’t go somewhere else and just sit next to me
