It's been a week since I awakened and evolved the Caucasus.
Since that day, the Caucasus has been going out to hunt every day and bringing back a large amount of loot.
Thanks to this, the contents of my storage spell are rapidly increasing.
My storage spell has a large capacity that allows me to access the storage spaces of both my previous and present lives, so I've been able to get by. ...... If I wasn't a reincarnation, my storage would have been overwhelmed by now.
While the Caucasus is spending its free time like this, I've been working on making ingredients for beast jelly.
For the past week, I've been working on collecting gelatin.
I've been repeatedly extracting gelatin from wyvern corpses. ...... I've finally accumulated a good amount of gelatin, so today I'm going to start making the real jelly.
First, I'm going to use the storage spell to take out all the monsters that Caucasus has hunted in the past week, including the ones that weren't used to extract the gelatin from the wyverns.
Next, I cast the following spell.
"Qilin, appear before me at ...... and let us make a mutually beneficial trade.
Then a blinding light shone from a point in the ...... air, and a deer-shaped apparition with the face of a dragon, the tail of an ox, and the hooves of a horse - a Qilin - appeared.
What is it that you want, a material for awakening and evolving or a flavor enhancer?
The Qilin's voice rang directly into my brain.
The answer was obvious, since I had called him to gather the ingredients for the beast jelly.
"A flavor enhancer.
"Right. Then ...... give me the tribute you have prepared.
As soon as the Qilin said that, it distorted a part of the space.
You can throw the tribute ...... into it, that is, the corpse of the demon.
I threw the spoils of the Caucasus that I had just taken out of the storage magic into the distortion of space one after another.
And when I was done, I signaled to the Qilin.
"Your tribute is well received. At ......, I'll leave you here with what you want. Farewell.
The Qilin disappears.
And then two bottles appeared from where the Qilin had been.
The blue one with the ...... lid is Beast Glutamic Acid, and the red one is Beast Inosinic Acid.
Anyway, by mixing these with the demon's food, you can create a flavoring that will make the demon addicted.
...... Now that we have everything we need, let's make the jelly.
I put the gelatin and flavor enhancer into the hot water, stirred well, and turned off the heat.
As a finishing touch, I cast a cooling spell to harden the jelly.
...... is ready!
I put the solidified product into the storage spell and made a small gut-punch.
Now the food situation in the Caucasus is solved for the time being.
Since there was nothing more to do, I decided to take a nap and wait for the Caucasus to return.
"Valius!
"Valerius! I've got two announcements for you today!
When Caucasus came back, he said so with high tension.
I've got a couple of announcements for you today. ...... Well, let's hear them first.
What is it?
First of all. I found this book on the side of the road!
The Caucasian threw a dirty book towards me that was pinned in the corner.
I caught the book, thinking, "Oh no, .......
It's not just the demons we hunt, Caucasus, but sometimes we pick up lost items like this,......, and nine times out of ten, it's junk.
In the event that you're not sure what you're looking for, you'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.
"My first choice is non-negotiable: ......?
That was the title of the book.
I wondered what the book was about and turned the page.
And when I found out what ...... the book was about, I naturally smiled.
'Thank you, Caucasus! This one's a real help.
The book that the Caucasus brought back this time was called "The First Choice is Non-negotiable".
It was a set of 15 years of past entrance exams for the elite academy.
With this book, you can study efficiently for the entrance exam.
In other words, the probability of being admitted to the school will be greatly increased.
Okay, I'll report this to Lord Carmel in the near future.
I've decided to do so.
...... Oh, by the way, you said that the Caucasus has "two notices".
I wonder what the other one is?
So I looked at the Caucasus and saw a fly monster perched on the wings of the ...... Caucasus.
I'm pretty sure that's ......
"And I have another announcement to make. I have a partner now!
...... I knew it!
As I was thinking this, the fly demon greeted me with telekinesis.
"Hello. I'm the Lord of the Flies and my Caucasian brother's friend, ...... Belzebub! Nice to meet you!
"...... Oh, yeah. Nice to meet you too.
...... So, the Caucasian guy made Belzebub his partner.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing.
I'm not sure what to make of this.
Belzebub's ability to make enemy demons abnormal and raise the defense of the Caucasus increases the Caucasus's usefulness.
There's no reason not to welcome it.
"Actually, I have some good news for you as well.
I've got some good news for you, too,' I told the Caucasians, and pulled out some beast jelly from my storage spell.
I've been making this today. I was making this today. It should be just right for your taste buds. Eat as much as you like at ...... to celebrate Belzebub's arrival!
First, Caucasus took a big bite.
I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.
"This ...... is! It's a great texture!
It's amazing ...... that the master of the Caucasus can make something this good .......
Apparently, it was quite well received.
I was satisfied with the response of my followers, and began to read "The first choice is non-negotiable", remembering the examination period of my previous life.
