Chapter 53: 53 Episode 52 Island and Meat

Morning is here.

I really want to take care of the cane today, but I haven't talked to the guild yet, so it wouldn't be a good idea to take a break from logging.

If I go to the guild now and say, 'I'm taking today off,' they won't have the means to stop me, but that's not the same thing.

Why don't we just refine the sugar here?

Sugar is made by crushing and squeezing sugar cane, I believe.

The juice from the sugar cane is then boiled down and concentrated. ......

Crushing can be done in any way.

In order not to waste the juice that comes out during the crushing process, you need a saucer for the liquid, but if you have one, you can just smash it with a blade or something.

If you use a magic sword, it may smash the whole container, so use a blade.

It's made of metal lizard metal, and it's durable and safe.

You can get a tool from ...... to narrow down the problem.

Pressure magic is also promising if we can make something that slowly compresses over time.

Boiling down is easy enough, but I have to be careful not to burn the sugar.

But we can't do it here because we don't have the tools.

Sugar cane is finite.

No choice but to put the sugar refining on hold.

Let's head for the other important factor in obtaining sugar, securing farmland.

We'll find an island that looks just right.

If we don't burn down the whole island, we might be attacked by demons, but considering that island has sugar cane, it would be a waste to burn it down.

There were many islands near there, so we should find a reasonable one.

If you're going to grow sugar cane, you'll need workers, so you'd better have some water as well.

Well, we can get enough water for human use with magic tools, and depending on the nature of sugar cane in this world, it may not be a priority.

However, if trees are likely to grow, the island must be large enough to be managed so that it can be pulled out before it becomes too big for the demons to grow.

Well, I guess it's best to look for it.

I followed the same route as yesterday to visit the island where the wyvern was.

I couldn't remember the route, but as luck would have it, Wyvern's island was easy to find.

As we gained almost a kilometer in altitude, we could see a lot of islands.

Or rather, they are so many islands that if you were to enlarge Matsushima, it would look like this.

I don't know why the terrain is like this, but the islands are flat and there are no volcanoes, so it's easier to use than hotspots.

An island with a radius of about one kilometer, two islands away from Wyvern's island and about ten kilometers away, seems to be the right size.

I landed on the island.

There was a Galden near the landing site, so I took the opportunity to chop off his head and stick it in the item box.

I floated around the island for a bit, but didn't find any plants that looked particularly valuable.

I can't find any water, but I guess I'll have to rely on my magic tools.

Now we just need a port: .......

There's a boat killer in the waters near the demon realm.

You'll get nice boats.

If you use a lot of Metal Lizard Metal, you can probably avoid being sunk, but I doubt it.

Even though it's a personal hobby of mine, I don't think it's a good idea to ignore profitability, since sugar is a business.

The strength of the boat killer will determine how much of the stuff you need to use.

If this world is full of wooden ships, we can use thick iron ships.

If that's not possible, I'll have to use flight magic to lift a basket full of people and carry them.

I don't want anything to happen while I'm gone, and I'd rather avoid that if possible.

If I build a sturdy ship, I'll need a port.

The area around this island is sandy, so it's not suitable for a port.

There is a way to alter the terrain with magic, but it seems difficult.

Depending on the draft of the ship, we'll need to dig to the bottom of the sea.

We should look for another island.

I'll fly again, this time focusing on the coastline.

We'll be looking for places that are adjacent to deep water.

There were countless islands just from about a kilometer above us, so we should be able to find them.

We thought so, and searched for the right island while maintaining an altitude of about 100 meters.

You can tell how deep the ocean is by looking at the colors.

The sea is a mixture of light blue, blue, and green, but the deeper the sea, the more blue it is, and the shallower the sea, the more light blue it is.

Well, we'll find a suitable island soon enough.

--about 50 minutes later.

Nothing.

Not one of the islands was the right size for the deep water.

In fact, none of the islands had deep water, even if you didn't care about size.

It seems that it is impossible to use a ship with a deep draft.

So a ship made of heavy metal would be difficult.

But they need to be large enough to be defensible.

If we leave the ship off shore like a landing ship and travel by small boat, we'll be easy prey for demons.

No.

Landing ship.

Landing ships didn't always use small boats.

Hovercrafts, helicopters, and the like could be used to avoid demons while landing.

The ship itself should be heavily armored and able to withstand the attacks of boat killers.

A merchant ship that looks like a heavily armored assault ship, that's it.

I don't know what the ship is for anymore, but if we add more things to it, it will be able to transport large numbers of people.

It would require a huge initial investment, so the size would have to be considered, but it is an option.

In that case, let's just blow up the island.

It'll take about three days to burn, so blow it up beforehand: ......

No, you can't do that when you don't even know whose land it is.

I'll go to the commerce guild tomorrow and ask them if we can use it.

If not, I'll have to try to convince them.

Should I bring some golden favors to the guild?

Well, I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

If it's just to prepare sugar for me, I can just harvest it from around here, and I don't think it's a good idea to rush to increase production by doing evil. Anyway, I should go home.

I also need to think about the wyvern material.

It's a shame to leave it idle.

I'll ask Mercia about it later.

I'll ask Mercia later, but it wouldn't hurt to ask the guild as well.

The guy at the grocery store might be able to tell you, but he's a merchant.

You can expect more accurate advice from a place that is not that profitable no matter how you use it.

"Excuse me, the wyvern material I got the other day, do you have any suggestions on how I can use it?

"If it's a wyvern, I'm sure there are plenty of buyers for it in the Photolens.

Today's receptionist was polite, perhaps she knew that I had defeated the wyvern, but she didn't react in any particular way.

But it's a shame to sell it.

I don't have a lot of money.

If you need a lot of money to build a ship, you may need to sell it, but if you spend that much money to build a ship, it would be a bad business decision.

No, I don't want to sell it, I just think it would be a good use for myself.

It's not my area of expertise, but I'm sure you can find some good uses for it in your own business.

I'm sure it's armor.

I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you.

I'm not sure.

"Is it stronger than Metal Lizard Metal's gear?

In terms of sturdiness, the Metal Lizard Metal is a bit better, but bones are lighter than metal, and weapons can use magic to create fire, so overall, the wyvern is better.

Hmm, that's a little subtle.

"By using magic, do you mean using the owner's magic?

Yes, swordsmen often do not use magic, so they can make good use of it. 　You don't need to concentrate, just swing it and the flame will come out.

Oh.

I'm not sure what to make of that.

It's not like a magic sword that's gone too far, the output is small enough that it might still work.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

In any case, it's not bad to have a weapon that can use magic outside the realm of magic use.

Even though the number of magic power has increased during the defeat of wyverns, the amount of magic power available per hour is still limited.

Well, it's not as good as a magic sword, so I'll hold off for now.

It's faster to fight with magic if it works, and the sword is too overwhelming if it doesn't.

Then there's meat.

Can we eat wyvern meat?

No, it may have other uses. I wonder if this was the right way to ask.

I've heard of people eating them after they've been dried in a place with good conditions for a year or so, but basically they're like the meat of a demon in the demon realm made worse, so they're not something you should eat.

Is it called "magic overload"?

Yes, I wouldn't recommend eating it.

All right, thank you.

Magic overload, or was it magic element overload in the appraisal? .

Is it good?

I think I'll try a little bit of ......, it was fine in the cave.

If it's bad, it might increase your MP.

If not, I'll eat a little bit at a time and see how it goes so that it doesn't become lethal.

It may be a little early for lunch, but I decided to go out and grill some thinly sliced meat, cut into 5cm cubes, at a place that was open.

Since I didn't have any tools for grilling meat, I cut a stone that was lying around flat with my magic sword, washed it with water, and used it as a griddle.

All that remains is to heat it from above with magic.

If you use a fire magic with less power and longer duration, you can get by without a plate that can easily conduct heat.

Soon, I could smell a good aroma.

"Hey kid, what are you cooking?

A couple of adventurers passing by suddenly asked me.

"We're Wyverns.

I'm a wyvern. ...... You're a maple, I've heard you're a monster, but you shouldn't do that, you're better off eating normal food.

I'm not sure what to do with it, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

The meat was cooked nicely.

Just to be sure, I cut the meat into 1cm thick pieces and put them in my mouth.

It tasted wonderful, like a slightly thicker and firmer version of expensive Japanese meat.

The consistency was not unbearably tough, but genuinely chewy.

There was no deterioration in his physical condition.

"Oh no, I ate it. ...... Are you okay?

"It's good!　It's good!

Oh, yeah. ......

He was attracted to me.
