Volume 8 Chapter 1 PaRT 11



「Yes, there’s no problem with this one.」

For Roxanne, nothing seems like a problem. However, prolonged combat is a serious problem. Roxanne isn’t the only one fighting, so there are other things to consider.

I used 「Meteor Crash」next. If they have fire resistance, it might not defeat them. My expectations are off though, because the Clam Shells are defeated with a single use of 「Meteor Crash」.

Why is that, I wonder? Does 「Meteor Crash」actually have the earth attribute? Earth Magic is a weakness of the Mabream on the twelfth floor as well, but I haven’t tested if 「Meteor Crash」can defeat them in a single blow just yet.

Looks like I’ll have to test out 「Meteor Crash」a bit more later. Miria seems worried though, so we finish up on the exploration of the sixteenth floor of Haruba’s Labyrinth for now and head to the twelfth floor of Bode’s Labyrinth, where we hunted until we got our hands on two Whole Fish. I got them as our celebration of our passing of the fifteenth floor.

「Are two entire Whole Fishes going to be enough for you?」

「Yes, desu.」

「That is definitely going to be more than enough for the four of us.」

Miria seems to think that two Whole Fishes are going to be enough. Personally, I think that it might still be a little bit too much. That, and there is always a possibility that we might get tired of it if we’re going to eat it too often, even if it is insanely delicious.

Now that Miria’s concerns have been dispelled, we went back to the sixteenth floor of Haruba’s Labyrinth, our original hunting ground. I’m using 「Fifth Job」 so I can use both Cook and Monk at the same time. Since there are up to five enemies, having the Monk Job is a necessity. Even Roxanne might get hit if there are five. It would be troublesome to switch to Monk after someone is hit, so it should be ready in case of an emergency.

I’ve had to sacrifice a lot of my experience gain because I still want to keep 「Crystallization x64」, so there’s no other choice. I have to keep doing it until I have a white crystal ready for the auction.  If I get clams in large quantities, I can make a profit selling them as well.

「I’m going to be making some soup today, so I want you to decide about the other things that we’re going to be eating.」

「Understood.」

After we finished the exploration of our original hunting ground, we went back home after shopping for ingredients.

First, I add a little wine to water and simmer the clams. In case of shellfish, you keep the pot open, but because it’s clams, however, I don’t know the time it’ll take to boil them, so I’ll have to improvise. If I leave it for long, it may get overcooked.

After that, I dice vegetables and ham, and stir-fry it. Next, I make white roux. I take the clams out from the pot and add it, along with stir-fried vegetables and ham, to white roux. I then heat it up to slightly below the boiling point, and then it’s ready. Clam chowder, that is.

I take the pot off the fire and put it on dining table.

「X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X」

「Miria says that it’s her first time eating clams.」

Oh, so she was watching me when I was cooking? The surprise has been spoiled then.

「Although there are clams, it’s basically soup.」

There’s one clam with some soup for each of us.

I wonder if the soup is failure. No, it can’t be. No ingredient is missing if I remember correctly, and the smell wafting from the soup is great, at least.

I taste it to confirm….. Oh! Delicious! It’s a definite success!

I pick the dark clam up from the thick soup. The clams are chewy and rich in flavor. So delicious! It was worth every Nar to buy them! How can it be so delicious? And what’s with this amazing smell?

I know it’s awkward saying that about something I made myself, but this might just be my best dish up to date, ever!

「Master, it’s really delicious.」

「It’s by far the best clam I have eaten.」

「Tasty, desu.」

I receive positive feedback from the three. Hehe, go ahead and praise your master some more, I shall accept every last compliment! I should make this soup again sometime. It is still delicious, but I wonder if it’s really alright for me to be getting used to this kind of luxury?

Well, we picked these clams ourselves without paying even a single Nar for it, so I supposed that indulging ourselves for a little bit is not going to hurt us. As such, not only Miria, but also Roxanne and Sherry were devouring the clams and other food with blissful expressions on their faces.

「Here, desu.」

However, we still have a slight problem on our hands: Miria does not seem to remember what the proper Brahim word for 「clam」is. Even this morning, whenever she was passing clams to someone else or was picking up the ones that she dropped, she was only saying 「here」or 「this」in regards to it, and that got me wondering: does she still remember anything from the Brahim language, or did she perhaps forgotten everything that we have taught her thus far?

「It’s a clam Miria. A Clam.」

「Clam, desu.」

Miria repeated my words right after me, but honestly, I have a feeling that she’s probably going to forget the meaning of that word eight away, before this conversation even ends. So if I want to prevent that, then maybe I should turn that word into something that’s definitely going to be related to fish? After all, that seemed to be the key to making Miria more interested in whatever we were talking about thus far.

Anyway, that may come later. For now, let us just rejoice in the taste of a perfectly good combination that is the taste of fish and clam. Or to be more precise, of fish and grilled clam.

「Since I have made macaroni for breakfast, then you might use it in the soup if you want.」

「Understood.」

「Since master offered it, then I’m going to try incorporating it into the soup.」

That should be fine, but there is something that I would also like to try before that.

After leaving the Labyrinth, we already began making plans in regards to today’s dinner. As usual, Sherry is going to be in charge of making the soup. Other than that, we’re going to have some grilled macaroni with White Meat, clams, pig ribs, lots and lots of vegetables and macaroni, which is going to have seafood sauce as its topping. That way, I was able to create a yakisoba-like food with this world’s pasta instead of your regular noodles: seafood ankake grilled macaroni. I also bought some bread for everyone, but I think that might have been a slight overkill on my part, since we’re already having a crapton of ingredients, so I’m worried that slapping some bread on top of all of that is going to be one ingredient too many and we’re not going to be able to eat all of it.

「It’s delicious. That clam is so very delicious!」

「Yes. Master’s cooking is well and truly the best.」

「Very tasty, desu.」

Clam soup goes well with the White Meat, so Miria shouldn’t have any reasons to complain about it

「White Meat is delicious, desu.」

Ok, so maybe I was wrong about it. As long as there is fish involved in any way, then Miria is not going to be caring about literally anything else.

「Okay Miria, what is this?」

I try asking her about the Brahim meaning of new words near the end of the day.

「Shell Powder, desu.」

Since Shell Powder was used in the tempura, she seems to have memorized its meaning in Brahim just fine.

「And this thing right here?」

「Clam, desu.」

Oh! Well would you look at that, she managed to remember the name of yet another thing!

「This is the thing that I ate with White Meat this morning.」

「That’s right! Great!」

It seems that all of my efforts at trying to teach her Brahim weren’t useless after all! Who knows, if we keep on employing this method to try to teach Miria to speak proper Brahim, then maybe the day when she finally masters it enough to communicate with us fluently won’t be as far away as I have initially anticipated?
