Chapter 46

“SO COOL!”

The culinary guild has a scream that seems to have attracted people even outside it.

The eyes of everyone who was there were focused on Olivia, who stood on the tangerine box.

She was holding something strange, a humanoid, about the size of a large stuffed animal.

A two-branched head. Two leaves are swaying instead of hair.

The limbs are simply looking like sticks, and the appearance is more like a starfish.

A leaf-like thing is in the place where a place should be, don’t know if it’s functional or just for decoration.

In any case, it is nothing more than an “irregular shape”, and it has been unavoidably continuing to gather the gaze of the surroundings.

“What’s your name?”

“I’m going to call it Kure. Is it easy?” (TLN: what should it be called “キュール”)

“Kure! I think it’s good. Kure-chan, nice to meet you.”

“Kurururu!”

Kure, who raised it’s hand and greeted, is a tree spirit who contracted with Pamela.

Still childish, curious and friendly.

I thought more spirits hated humans, but apparently it’s not just curls.

Well, we were attacked by the spirit, but we probably didn’t know how to deal with it because they were children.

“Pamela … Olivia too. Don’t be too flirty. Don’t show the spirits in public. The materialized spirits are rarer than the S-rank monsters. You could be kidnapped. “

“I understand. I’m sorry, Zelet.”

“Zelet-san, you’re jealous because you can’t take care of it yourself.”

“Hmm …”

The two women turn to me and grin.

That’s not true … I’m just giving realistic advice.

Good grief……. Pamela, she was depressed yesterday … She’s a childhood friend, but she’s quite difficult.

Speaking of Pamela, until then.

“Then, Kure. Become a ghost.”

“kur! “

When Kyle salutes, it disappears as if it melts into the air.

“Wow”

Olivia strips her eyes.

It looks like an old woman who is pleased to see her grandchildren standing up.

“This is fine, Zelet”

“Oh … and make sure you can turn on and off your spiritual vision. It will be tiring to see the spirits all the time.”

“It’s okay. I’m used to it. Leave it to me!”

Pamela sends a V sign.

Have you gotten used to it? It seems that she is also good at exercising.

If you train properly under a master, Pamela may grow big.

“What are you guys making a fuss about? Here and there!”

The guild master was beckoning on the stairs.

Apparently, the strategy meeting is about to begin.

When he was passed through the drawing room of the cooking guild, Pamela looked nervous.

I often look around.

“Zelet, can I also participate?”

“I can’t talk without you”

“I haven’t received any explanation.”

“Listen to Olivia and others, not me for the explanation.”

Olivia and the Guild Master came in with the paperwork when we were talking to each other.

We sit on the couch in front of us and the Guild Master starts the story.

“First of all, Pamela joined us, so I’ll talk from the beginning. Actually, the Cooking guild was aiming to cook a dish that had been around for a long time. Of course, this request is from the Duke of Rafina. First of all, the reward for success is ―――― ”

The guild master raises four fingers.

I found Pamela inhaling sharply beside me.

“Yeah, there’s no such thing as 4 million, right?”

Pamela responds confidently, pulling her face.

Satisfied with the reaction, the guild master snorted.

“Yes … 40 million gras. But this is an advance payment …”

“Well, advance payment !! Then, how much would it be if we succeeded?”

Then the guild master opened his hand and showed it to Pamela.

At the moment, Pamela gets up from the sofa.

I hit my knee against the table in front of me, but I could hear his voice.

“Yes, 100 million gras !!!”

Rir and Prim sleeping behind wake up.

Pamela was stunned and stood up and said nothing more.

The guild master smiles.

“The food requested this time is that difficult. In some cases, it may be more difficult than defeating S-rank monsters.”

“Ah … That’s why Zelet received the request.”

“Well, that’s the story.”

“So … what am I doing —-“

Finally Pamela sat down on the sofa.

I stretch my spine and listen to the guild master.

“I’ll explain it step by step. This request is for cooking. Moreover, it’s all made with monster ingredients.”

“All made with monster ingredients!”

Although monster food is becoming more widespread year by year, it seems that it has not made much progress in its cooking research because there are few creators themselves.

It’s fine to bake meat and eat it, but when it becomes a little elaborate, it is necessary to supplement it with something other than monster ingredients.

This is probably because the number of cooks is small and research on ingredients has not yet progressed.

“There are five main types of ingredients you need … You have to prepare all of them.”

“5 types !? It’s certainly difficult, isn’t it?”

“Yes. The most troublesome thing is Stardust Oaks.”

“Star … Dust ……… Oaks …? I haven’t heard of it, but is it a cow monster by name?”

It’s no wonder Pamela doesn’t know.

This is because Stardust Oaks is a rare species that is said to be a phantom monster even among hunters.

There are few sightings, and its habitat and ecology are completely unknown.

Was it really there? Was it an illusion of a hunter? There are many researchers who deny its existence.

I haven’t witnessed it yet, but even my mentor is a monster I’ve never met.

“Do you use that Stardust Oaks meat?”

When Pamela asked, Olivia shook her head.

“No. Stardust Oaks is more like a spirit than a monster. That’s why it’s difficult to physically handle, any physical or magical attack doesn’t seem to work. “

“That’s why it’s called ” Immortal Scrap Cow ” by the name.”

“Well, can you catch that, Zelet?”

“Oh … I can’t. Even me.”

It’s difficult to catch it.

It’s like shooting an invisible spirit to me.

“But it’s not that there is no way. That’s where you come in Pamela.”

“Me?”

“A spirit of this type can come into contact with Stardust Oaks.”

“No, no.”

Pamela’s ponytail shook.

“I don’t want her to do that dangerous thing. I’m definitely against it!”

“Please calm down, Pamela-san”

Olivia calms Pamela.

“I’m not asking Kure to catch or subdue Stardust Oaks.”

“That’s right. So, maybe it’s even more difficult.”

“What do you mean? What do you want Kure to do?”

“Well, that’s …”

“Um … It’s kind of hard to say in the atmosphere.”

Olivia and the Guild Master have trouble responding to Pamela’s question.

They all become red, but Pamela seems to not understand.

What are you hesitating about, these two?

I should say it clearly.

Good grief…….

“Milking”

“teeth?”

“I want you to milk Stardust Oaks.”

Pamela’s face turns red.

The hand was already on her chest.

“teeth……”

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! !!
