Chapter 4-Craftsmanship and Dungeon Rice

(TL: By Rafael)

"Yuki, 

<Continuous recovery of magical power>Refresh manaCan you use it? "(Rain

"Yes, because I am a red mage"(Yuki)

<Continuous recovery of magical powerRefresh mana> Can only be used by red mage it's a ReinforcementBuff type of magic. No, should I be calling it auxiliary magic?

This magic is about the surrounding environment Magical powerMana It has the effect of gradually recovering magical power by taking in the magic from the environment.

It has no immediate effect, but it is a convenient magic that dramatically improves the ability of those who use magic which causes a great strain on their mana pool.

"What? Is it some amazing magic?"(Marina)

Rain nods a little to Marina's roaring voice.

"It's a very rare magic. Just being able to use it and  can get  you a place in an A rank party."(Rain)

"That would be an overstatement."(Yuki)

I  lightly laugh at Rain's words.

Just because it can be used, the A rank party is not so sweet to put someone in their party for just a single spell.

"It is so because red mage itself is an unlucky job. We have to use a lot of items to continue being beneficial for the party."(Yuki)

<Continuous recovery of magical power> Refresh manaIt was quite difficult to learn , but it seems that I was talented enough to learn it but it was much more difficult to get the spellbook for it. 

Well, the people in Thunder Pike were insensitive or indifferent to whatever reinforcement assistance I casted on them.

"Well, let's stop talking about me  and let's proceed ahead."(Yuki)

"Yes!"(Rain)

We go up the second level with caution more than the first level.

If we come across a flock of that size many times, Rain's burden will become  too great.

"What are you doing?"(Silk)

Silk gives an curious look to me, who sometimes stops and sprinkles holy water at my feet.

"I'm sprinkling holy water on the ground, because it prevents the undead from chasing us and landing a sneak attack ."(Yuki)

"Using precious holy water like this ..."(Silk)

"Well, I don't recommend it because it costs money to do it normally. This is my own work, so don't worry about it."(Yuki)

"Self-made !? Even though you are  not a priest ...?"(Silk)

"It's nothing that difficult, though."(Yuki)

Silk is surprised  but holy water is alchemically crafted. It is a kind of Magic drugPortion.

It seems that the church uses a material called "Crystal of Light" to create it, but in reality, the undeath is <Purification of the deadTurn undead> You can also make it with the "purifying ashes" that remain after you do.

The recipe is very simple..

The earlier Death minerDead minor ashes have been collected properly, so even if I proceed while sprinkling holy water, I will not be in the red.

"... After all, high-ranked adventurers have great wisdom."(Silk)

"Well, there are many things I've been doing for five years. Well you can always learn from me."

"Yuki, what's with that way of speaking ?"

Marina walking behind makes a small pout.

"Hmm?"(Yuki)

"In the current way, it doesn't seem like it's gone. This kind of vibes is like the old time!"(Marina)

"Hmm? Yeah? I'm sorry if it felt like  that ..."

Apparently, I'm giving the vibes of a "teacher".

"I hope you understand adapting so quickly can be a little difficult for me"(Yuki)

"Even though we are party members but still teach me a lot sensei"(Silk)

While laughing at the joke of Silk's , he steadily progresses through the dungeon.

Even the third level Demonmonster attack them However, we got through without any difficulty and proceeded to the 4th level.

"Let's take a break have our meal"(Yuki)

The plan now  is to move in search of a mining point for magic iron ore.

One can't mine with a empty stomach.

" Not eating rice in the dungeon is kind of depressing ..."(Marina)

"it can't be helped"(Rain)

Marina and Rain, who took out the dried meat and bread from the bag, sighed a little.

Well, this is what a typical adventurer's diet is like, but if you eat in a dimly lit place without heat, But if one have the things rice is the only choice to go with .

But have they forgotten that I am with them  this time?

"Well, wait. I'll prepare the food today."(Yuki)

I moved my hand toward my waist, where my  Magic bagMagic bag was kept then, I take out the frying pan and the small stove and arrange them on the simple desk that was also pulled out from the bag.

"Wow ...Magic bagMagic bag……! "(Rain)

"Hmm? Is this your first time to seeing it?"(Yuki)

Rain, whose eyes shine, nods many times and looks at me and the bag alternately.

"Well, it's not cheap."(Yuki)

"I want it someday"(Rain)

"If you continue your life as  adventure, you will have the opportunity to get it."(Yuki)

Magic bagMagic bag as Magic toolArtif is  quite popular.

It's a price that's hard to get as a beginner , but you can get it at Magic toolArtif shop you can also  find it normally, or you can find it in the dungeon.

It is also an indispensable gem for a person who relies on tools like me for support.

"Well, I will now  prepare the rice."(Yuki)

It Operates with magic stonesMagic tool I ArtifLight the stove and heat the frying pan while taking out the bucket, eggs, sausages, cheese ... and another pot.

This pot is a little special.

I put the pot in the shape of a small barrel on the floor and hit it twice with a ladle, and as I saw it, the pot was filled with steaming soup.

Hmm, this time it's a seafood soup.

"What is this? What is this !? Amazing!"(Rain)

Rain, who was watching the situation, claps his hands and rejoices.

As usual she is a Magic toolArtif Freak.

Even though she can use magic herself.Magic toolArtif ,I think it's because of the dwarven blood that she is attracted to it.

"This was picked up in the' Aurias Royal Castle Ruins' dungeon [Regular hot potSoup stock] Is a magic pot. It costed a lot to repair, but it's pretty interesting, isn't it? "(Yuki)

"Very interesting ..."(Rain)

[Regular hot potSoup stock] With the fascinating Rain on the side, put the sausages and eggs in a warm frying pan.

The sizzling sound of fat and the scent of hunger struck the people around me.

"..."(Marina)

"What happened? Marina?"(Yuki)

"I can't believe it. It's a dream to have a decent meal in the dungeon ...?"(Marina)

"It's not such a big thing. See, Now eat."(Yuki)

After saying that and handing over the plate, Marina happily started eating it.

It's not a big dish, but it's worth making it if someone is happy.

"...?"(Silk)

Silk  was also interested in the plate that was handed over.

"Hey, Yuki-san. The rice ... I feel like its releasing magical power."(Silk)

"Well"(Yuki)

Well, Silk has  dark elf blood, so she's sensitive to magical power.

"Why do these fried eggs and sausages have magical power?"(Silk)

"Cooking is like alchemy in a broad sense, isn't it?"(Yuki)

"Is it wrong?"(Silk)

"I tried it before, and with a little training I was able to put on magical power in the food."(Yuki)

"So why magical power ...?"(Silk)

"That's because we have to also go mining from here. I've been lovingly trying to improve my physical ability so as not to get tired."(Yuki)

"Cooking is love ...? Love isMagical powerMana was it ……? "(Silk)

Silk holds her head.

I shouldn't have talked something so difficult.

Rain touches the back of the Silk who is in deep thought.

"Silk, don't think about it. Feeling, tired?"(Rain)

I wondered what the witch would say that ... but I bite into the freshly baked sausage.
