The minimal store in the village of spirits was completed, and Ruby and the others went to the ice house to deliver the ingredients they had been waiting for. I must confess that I was a little depressed because the icehouse that Ruby and her team had built was more solid than I had imagined, and I felt like I had been given a knowledge cheat contrary to what I had expected.

However, my depressed mood was revived by Ruby's next explanation. Ruby and her team had developed a method of aging meat through years of experience. Now the variety of ingredients will increase again. Aged meat steaks make my heart flutter.

"Well, Ruby, if the meat has a lot of magic power, it is not suitable for aging. Are roughbirds and oak meats okay?"

"You'll be fine! You can't go wrong with roughbirds and oak meat!"

I'm glad to hear it. There are many tasty meats in the magic bag, but the basic ones are the rough birds and the orcs. The basics are important. If the basics are raised to the next level, I am sure our diet will go up a notch.

What about giant dears?

"I don't know, I've never done giant deers!"

"Well, I've got some meat for you to try. Is that all right with you?

"Good! I'm open to new challenges!"

Ruby is happy to oblige. Giant Dears are a favorite of Belle and her friends, so they'll be happy when they taste good.

"Hey, Yuta, you keep saying you're going to age the meat, but will it really taste good? If you keep it chilled, it will go bad, right?"

Sylphy asks curiously. Well, meat will go bad if you leave it unattended. I don't know who said it, but there is a saying that meat tastes best when it's on the verge of rotting. But it takes courage to eat rotten meat. Especially the color. .......

"In the country I was in, aging meat was a basic practice. There are a lot of precautions to take to keep it from spoiling, but I didn't have the slightest knowledge about it, so I couldn't do it. But now that Ruby and the others have developed their own aging methods, our meals will taste even better from now on."

"I don't know, but it really does taste good, doesn't it?"

"Sylphy's sister! Meat really tastes better when it's aged!"

Ruby interrupted the conversation and began to make an enthusiastic appeal. Ah, Emme, Saffy, Citrine, and Onyx joined the reinforcements. I guess they've had a hard time trusting me so far.

"All right, all right. I trust you and I'll eat it.

Sylphy is being forced to agree to eat the food by the momentum of Ruby and the others. Well, as long as it doesn't fail to ripen, I'm sure it will taste good, so there should be no problem.

"Well, I'm about to bring out the ingredients.

"Oh, wait a minute. I'm going to chill the ice compartment first.

After Saffy said this, she put her hands out in front of her, and ice was formed all over the ice room, and even the air in the room was cooled down at once. This won't hurt the food ......, but my body is freezing.

"Yuta, are you okay? Do you want me to warm you up?"

"It's a little, a lot colder, but I don't want to heat me up and affect the food.

"Well, it is possible to block the heat, but it will be warm within the range of Yuta's movement.

"Well, I'll be patient and make this quick."

"Yeah? Take it easy."

"Okay."

It won't take that long, and the best option would be to get the food out and get out of the ice room quickly.

"By the way, Yuta's brother is human!"

Ruby and the others are surprised at the exchange between me and Sylphy. ...... You're catching on there now?

I'm not sure what to make of it. They don't get a chance to talk to anyone but spirits.

That's true, since they rarely have a chance to materialize, it means they rarely have a chance to talk to humans. Then it would be hard for them to think that the person they are talking to is another species.

I'm sorry for making you feel cold all of a sudden.

Saffy apologizes apologetically.

"Don't worry about it. It's normal to cool the ice room. But it's sure cold here so let's get on with it. I'll get the food out.

Ruby and the others place the ingredients in the ice compartment in a streamlined fashion. The large blocks of meat were heated by Saffy and then placed in the ice compartment. The hooks are made of a large piece of It looks like a meat factory in a foreign movie.

"Also ...... there are a lot of roughbirds and orcs that haven't been dismantled, can Ruby and the others dismantle them?"

"I'm good at dismantling things, I can do it! Oh, but then we'll have to build a room for dismantling. Citrine, please!

"Well, let's get all the ingredients out first for now, this is the meat of the Giant Deer. Try the aging process."

She stops Citrine, who is about to make a move at Ruby's request, and prioritizes putting the ingredients into the ice compartment. It's really cold.

"So this is the meat of the Giant Deer. It doesn't contain that much magic power, so it should age well!"

Well, that's good news. Giant Deer is quite tasty even when eaten normally, so if it becomes even tastier with aged meat, I'm quite looking forward to it. I leave Ruby to observe the Giant Deer meat with interest, and focus on serving the ingredients.

I guess that's enough for now. I still have a few more ingredients left in my magic bag, so let me know if you need more.

"Oh, we have lots of ingredients! I love to cook!"

Ruby is jumping up and down, and Emme and her friends are happy to be there. It's great that they get along so well with each other. But I'm freezing and I want to get out of here.

"All we have to do now is to give them the recipe, but it's cold here, so let's move to another place.

"Oh yeah, Yuta's brother is cold, let's move!"

On Ruby's command, we leave the ice room and return to the cafeteria. The warm air is a relief. It's usually so hot that I get sick of it, but I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be glad of this heat.

"Here's the recipe. You can read, right?"

I sit down in the plant chair and pass the recipe I wrote in front of the excited Ruby and her friends. All the dishes I gave to Mr. Toruku are written down. I thought about adding some new dishes, but at first I only gave them the existing recipes.

"I can read!"

After saying this, he looks at the recipe as if he were devouring it.

"Well, as you can see, it's just a vague recipe, so you'll have to do the rest of the research on your own. And there are some dishes and desserts that I made based on the recipes, so you can try them. I think it will be helpful."

""""New dishes!

Emme, Saffi, Citrine and Onyx bite, but Ruby looks difficult.

"Ruby, what's wrong?"

"Ummm, of course I want to try your new dish! But as a cook, I also want to imagine the finished product with this recipe and make a delicious dish!"

Does that mean pride as a cook? There is a possibility that you could come up with a different tasty dish than Mr. Toruku's, and that would be more interesting for me because it would give me more variety.

"Well, I'm sorry Emme, Saffy, Citrine, and Onyx, but can we wait until the next time to serve that recipe? Then, when Ruby's dish is finished, how about we compare it to the food in the magic bag? Well, if Emme and the others want to eat the food first, they can eat it first where Ruby is not. ......"

I said, and the five of them started to consult with each other, putting their heads together and giggling. ......I know it's not a comparison, but I think Belle and the others are more adorable when they put their heads together and consult with each other.

......Hey? Isn't this satisfaction what parents call greed? Lately, I feel like my paternal side has lost its stopper. You can't be a father before you have a wife.

Take a cue from Ruby and the others and always keep your mind young, or you'll end up saying ...... I've been losing interest in women lately.

Yuta's brother. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have a friend who can help you out, but I'm sure it's a good idea. So I'm going to ask them to compare the food."

"Oh, yeah. Okay. Then I'm looking forward to seeing Ruby finish the recipe. But some of the children are looking forward to the opening of the village of spirits, so I can't wait that long.

Feeling a sense of urgency about my change of heart, I came to a conclusion to consult with Ruby and the others. Let's leave my mental problems for now.

"All right. I think I can make a reasonable dish in five days. Can we compare then?"

I look at Sylphy and he nods. So five days is not a problem.

Okay, let's compare then. Good luck!

"You're going to do great! We're going to make a prototype right away!"

Ruby runs toward the ice room with the recipe in her hand. He went to get the ingredients right away.

"I'm sorry, Yuta's brother. Ruby is so blind when she has a goal in mind.

Onyx bows deeply.

"It's okay, I don't mind. It's going to be hard to perfect so many dishes in five days, so I hope you guys can help Ruby out. We're going back to the house.

He waves to Emme and the others and leaves the cafeteria with Sylphy. It would be impossible for a normal person to make so many different kinds of food in just five days, but Mr. Toruku had made it in one night. With Ruby and the others' long culinary experience, this could be interesting.

"These girls are very motivated. I'm looking forward to the next five days.

"Hmm, I'm a little interested in cured meat myself. But it's not really rotten, is it?

Sylphy seems to be half curious and half worried about the existence of aged meat. It is not unreasonable to say so, but once the quality of the cured meat is perfect, she will be able to dispel her doubts.

"The aged meat I know will be quite tasty, so I think you can count on it. But it takes time to mature meat, so it won't be ready in five days.

"Oh my, does it take that long ......?"

Sylphy's anxiety seems to have increased. Did I fail?

"Yuta, I found it!"

"Whaap!"

As I was wondering what was going on, a bell came flying at high speed and stuck to my face. I am amazed at your flying skills that hardly give me any impact. At first, I pull Bell off from my face, hold him in my arms, and pat his head.

"Bell, what's wrong?"

"Yuta, I'm here to call you!"

When I asked her a question while stroking her head, she looked surprised and told me that she had come to call me.

"Hmm? Is something wrong?"

"Mwah... a new plaza..."

Belle holds up her hands and says proudly. She is very cute, but I don't understand what she is saying. Does it mean that the plaza is completed? I didn't think it would take that long to complete since it was supposed to be done with the help of spirits, but even so, it's too early to tell. This morning it was flat all over. ...... I'll ask Belle for more details anyway.
