Chapter 4: CH 3

I open the door and entered the kitchen. I’m so hungry, but I don’t think there’s something convenient that I can eat in roughly 5 minutes like those in my previous world.

Taking a look at the shelves, I check what ingredients are available. There are beans, vegetables (mostly root vegetables) and pork meat –possibly smoked, inside. There’s also a clay pot, when I look inside, it contained salted pork meat. For the time being, I’ll eat these while boiling them.

Since there’s already a hotpot placed on the furnace, I filled it by transferring the water from the larger jar to the smaller jar and set the furnace on.

I was wondering if I had to create fire while using firewood but I was able to light the furnace with a little magic.

She said that the distribution of magic was minimal, but she seems to have included magic that is convenient for everyday life as part of the “minimum”. It’s a romance to create fire by myself, but it’s a hassle when it comes to daily life, and I’m grateful for this.

I suddenly noticed that easy fire, if it can be caused by magic that is said to be in the minimum, it wouldn’t be strange to have something like a refrigerator, but I can’t find it.

Actually, there are only dried vegetables and I just added what looks like freshly picked. Furthermore, there is only dried meat.

Seems like refrigeration technology has not been particularly developed or if it is, it’s considerably a luxury item and it is not suitable for such a place that is a little far from the village.This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

Since the water in the hotpot boiled and turned into hot water, I put the salted meat, vegetables and beans into it. There were beans like lentils and soybeans, but this time I will add soybeans. I continued heating it while stirring with a wooden ladle.

While watching the hotpot simmer, I think about my future. Even if I start earning money thru blacksmithing here, what to do with food, seasonings (for the time being, I think it’s only salt that doubles as a preservative) and water. I don’t know if the one I made will sell.

Given that, I have to figure out how to procure food before it runs out.

When I wake up, I’m not sure if it’s still morning, or it’s already afternoon. For now I’ll stay in the house and check what it feels like after dusk, I’ll explore the forest tomorrow. After all, I don’t know how big this forest is.

Maybe geographical information is also “installed” in my head, but I don’t know where this is in the first place. If possible, I would like to find the closest village and find out where this forest is, how wide it is, and what kind of place it is.

If I don’t do that, I’ll be overwhelmed to spend the rest of my life alone in the decades to come.This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

Since I’m a blacksmith, it’s likely that there will be visitors at some point –but I have no idea when it will come –and it’s too weird to “live alone in this forest” at the same time.

If this forest is a place where people often come in, those who come here may find this house suddenly suspicious. Once I go out to the village, I have to investigate that area as well.This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

Immediately after “moving” here, I can’t help it as there are many things to do.

As I was thinking about it, the hotpot boiled. I take a wooden bowl from the shelf and use a ladle to mix the hotpot. It does not smell bad.

I scoop some with the wooden spoon and bring it to my mouth. It tastes like soup made by boiling salted meat, root vegetables and beans that does not exceed my expectations. That said, it’s not unpalatable –it’s a taste that can be eaten normally.

If it’s like this, it is unlikely that my spirit will diminished without being able to eat in the first place. I’m the kind of person who is okay even if the same taste continues. If I get tired of the taste, I’ll think again at that time.

It’s been a while since I put the soup in my stomach, but there’s no sign that the sun will set.

The leaves of the trees directly blocks my view so I can’t see well but it seems that the day is still quite high even in the afternoon so I decided to explore outside.

I take the sword that was placed in the living space and attach it to my waist. Until now, I don’t have time to check, though it’s late, I noticed that I’m wearing hemp clothes and trousers, with a leather vest, the so-called “RPG villager” style.

Since I look like this, I wouldn’t be particularly suspicious even if I suddenly meet someone. Well, unless it’s a very remote place.

Anyway, I’ll look for the water source in 2-3 hours time and if I can’t find it, I’ll come back. I went outside, locked the door, and stepped into the forest.
