Hmm, should I ask Kirika-chan to help me scoop out the scum next? She’s five years old, right?

The fire magic stone doesn’t produce any flames, but it’d be terrible if the pot tips and she burns herself by accident.

Maybe I’m just worrying too much?

Would it be better if she used a knife? She might cut her finger, but maybe it would be considered a light wound compared to the pot tipping and burning her?

Maybe I should try making cookies with her next time. We should start with sweets, and they’re the most fun to make. Even then, the only ingredient we have that can be used for sweets was flour.

Hmm…

What about udon? Making udon is fun, right?

But there’s no salt… The problem with a lack of salt…

I want salt!

「Hey, Kirika. Bring these to the room too.」

Bryce-kun placed a large amount of potions on the table.

We took a bed sheet from an unoccupied room and teared it in half, and used them as a wrapping cloth.

I wish we got boxes to carry the potions soon.

Once Bryce-kun leaves this place, only Kurtz-kun and Kirika-chan, who are still young, and me, who is weak, will be left.

Maybe there is a wheelbarrow or carry cart around.

「Ah, okay!」

「I’ll help out too.」

Kirika-chan and Kurtz-kun went off to help Bryce-kun.

Now, I have to continue making dinner and think of a dish using the MP potion.

Ah, and also, up until now, I’ve been randomly… well, I’ve been measuring all the amounts by eye, but now that we’re going to develop potion recipes, I should record the amounts used.

That’s right!

We have to test whether the food will still have effects if people other than me make them!

I’ll get Kirika-chan to make that dish later! There’s nothing better than that!

I had so much to do that my mind was a mess. First… I have to scoop the scum! Oh, before that, I have to add more water since it was starting to get low.

I have to get a piece of paper and writing tool to take notes too. I thought they had pens or something that used ink, but instead they had something like a pencil. To be more specific, they only have the lead part. Ah, maybe it was like chalk? You have to cut one of the ends diagonally to sharpen it, so I guess that’s similar to a pencil.

Let’s see, today’s ingredients are…

Chicken Soup

Huh? I just realized the size of the pot matters too. For mountain birds, you have to use a large pot… If we had three ostriches instead, the pot we’re using wouldn’t fit them all.

…How many liters should I put down for the water so that people would understand?

Rofas-san had said that using Japanese was fine, so numbers should be fine too… But do they use the same measurement units?

To begin with, can anyone really read Japanese here?

If these potion recipes are going to be publicized, I need to write down the proper measurements of the ingredients.

What about the seasoning? So far, all of the potion bottles came in one size.

Alright, let’s do this. I’ll write down half a bottle, one-fourth of a bottle, and one-eighth of a bottle, all measured by eye, for the recipes.

That way, it’s clear whether you have to use one entire bottle or only one-fourth of it. Odd-number fractions would be difficult to measure, I guess.

I tore off a long, narrow strip of paper. I marked out the height of the liquid, and then marked the halfway point. Afterwards, I folded the strip of paper three times.

Alright, now I have eight portions. I marked down where the creases were. All I have to do now is to stick this onto a bottle so I could measure the liquid, but…

「There’s no tape, is there… There’s probably no glue either, but I guess I can use rice…」

Sticking paper on a bottle with rice? Do other households do that sort of thing?

Actually, won’t I have to replace the paper once I was done using the bottle? That’s annoying, isn’t it?

Hmm.

I know.

I found a small wooden plank and stuck the paper on it. It looked like a ruler. I could use this to measure instead. I wish I had something better, but for now, this was enough.

Um, now I have to continue making the chicken soup.

Cooking sake, spring onions, and vegetable scraps.

In order to control the flavor, I had to add seasoning, but I didn’t know what I should add. Since I want it to be salty, I guess the only thing I can add is soy sauce…

I want salt… salt…

Also, I have that dish made with lotus roots.

Um, the main dish is chicken, I guess? And since there was a lot of vegetables in the soup, I guess there are vegetables too? Should I give the dishes a name?

I measured out the seasoning by eye as usual. I should probably measure out how much liquid was remaining with the ruler.

If I didn’t do that, I wouldn’t be able to figure out how much I had poured out, and I might add more seasoning later too. This ruler might be handier than I had thought. I’ll confirm the amount I used once I’m done.

The soup was not forming as much scum now.
