Chapter 48
Toaru Ossan no VRMMO Katsudouki
A/N:Somehow Ive told 50 stories, maam.
I never thought I could have continued to tell stories to this extent.
The opening of the next day.
After getting back from work and logging in, today Ill be doing my best with cooking.
I will be simultaneously stewing, grilling, and frying sliced meat.
Anyway, I will be mass-producing the set of 3, Bear Meat Stew, Stir-Fried Vegetables with Wolf Meat, and Rabbit Meat Karaage, that sells well.
No matter what theres always a demand even though everyone else whos taken the Cooking Skill other than me is producing diligently everyday
Its become a situation where, if I dont simultaneously prepare them, then I wont be able to easily manage with the numbers; that I can deal with it while preparing them simultaneously scares even myself.
Its terrifying what you can get used to.
Maa, with stews, after you prepare the ingredients all you need to do furthers is just let the flavor simmer in; with stir-fried vegetables you pass it through the heat set to high in one go and its done.
Because stir-fried things cooked slowly over time on low heat is just plain grossnee.
Karaage as well, taking care not to burn it, is fried in one go over high heat.
Cooking is also a battle in another sense, theres no doubt about that.
And now that its done you eat it while its hot1
Smack!
Dont just appear out of nowhere all of a sudden! And dont eat that!
With the Light Metal made reproduced Harisen, coated with Bear leather to cause little pain while making a huge sound, I smack the intruder without holding back.
The one who came is the Fairy Queen is this gal really a queen?
Maa, her choice to come wearing a plain one-piece dress is the only part of her that I can evaluate highly.
Thats a product! Its not for you to eat!
Though, certainly the smell and steam from freshly fried karaage stimulates the appetite.
But the food in the Fairy Country is just a bunch of sweet things its totally dissatisfying~
A King, as you say, is someone that basically lives bound hand and foot.
Someone with the countrys number 1 highest status, the countrys number 1 must-be charity worker, the countrys number 1 slave, thats what kind of person the Rule of a country is.
On one hand the citizens must pay taxes, but as long as you pay the taxes the necessity for you to do battle is low, and you can freely move as you wish.
If you draw a pyramid, at the top you draw the King and at the bottom is the citizens; if you flip this pyramid over youll probably get my meaning.
It looks like the King is on top, but actually the unfortunate reality of it is that you absolutely have to put the citizens first; thats something I thought I knew well.
If the compulsory service starts getting involved then the story changes; but whatever way, a country that loses its citizens is fated to fall apart, and being King of a country with no citizens has no meaning at all.
That doesnt mean you can just carefreely come on over to the human side of the world
If this one being here is found out, just with that it will turn into something unforgivably troublesome.
And just yesterday I had heard the voice of someone I really dont want to get involved with.
Oi, you! yeah, it was like tha t,e?
You, YOU! You had some nerve to ignore me yesterday!
Its the absolute worse situation; it was me that the voice was calling out to.
For crying out loud, another troublesome thing came!? Even though I just want to slowly enjoy this world.
And, what was it you wanted?
To be honest, I want to just ignore him, but like, Im still not done with all my cooking, and with the Queen here it makes it all the more difficult to escape.
Lets bust out the business smile, outward appearance only, to smooth this over.
Im paying attention to the condition of the cooking flames.
Fun, well, fine. Im Nethar, member of the Guild [Apollos Bow]. We have the noble purpose of saving the Bow users from oppression!
A, at this point I already understand hes an unpleasant idiot beyond help.
To Apollo, the god they used the name of, I send my sympathies
The Queen too, from directly behind me, was looking at him with a cold gaze.
Even though guys who can delude themselves while under the impressions of their own Justice are way beyond troublesome
But Nethars, as he calls himself, speech doesnt end.
Therefore! For you who has been denied entry to any Guild anywhere, your comrades have come to rescue your from this pitiful situation; I even personally came to this kind of place in order to extend Our charity!
At this point Ive started ignoring him.
The Queen looks really bored, so I gave her 3 pieces of karaage.
Watching her as she eats it with relish, my annoyed feelings diminished some.
By the way, its unnecessary information, but the amount of Guild invites Ive gotten has already surpassed 30.
But its an unavoidable situation where I refuse right when I Login.
In the first place, if I wanted to join somewhere Zwei and the rests place would be the best.
We will have mercy on you! Therefore for someone like you We have prepared even the lowest of openings! Be grateful and come to Our Guild!
O, its getting to a good point, and the amount of karaage is also about enough.
Then, its about time to put out the stallne.
A, I almost forgot.
I will have to refuse. Then if youll excuse me.
We immediately left the dumbfounded Nethar, who could only respond to my refusal with a We-?, and carried the food to the place where you can put up a stall.
I didnt hear about 90% of it, but is he serious with that kind of solicitation?
When not accepting a persistent invitation, its best just to leave him like that; were wasting time.
More.
whack.
Stop that.
Exactly how much can the Queen eat!? Every single piece of the karaage is pretty big, and shes already eaten 4 of them
Aa, now that I think about it, the reason I started making this karaage was because that guy was still having difficulties with food, that big sheep Fairy partner.
I set up the stall and lined up the goods in one go. But somehow
Isnt it about time for you to go back?
I try and ask the Queen, but
Nope.
Was her only response; oi oi
Even though originally youre an existence thats not supposed to be here meandering around here.
Since shes not wearing the dress and crown, nor carrying the staff, that she had at the time of the Event, it looks like no one around has realized it, but whatever I might say, this one is a beautiful woman.
As expected, she has that aura, or something like that, and it really stands outne.
Myself? Its like Im in the position of the candlestick, the Queen being the flame.
Theres nothing I can do, so conversely lets boldly walk around town.
Because being weird and looking around restlessly would stand out more.
Going boldly will let us blend in with our surroundings more naturally and not stand out.
So, did you also want to acquire food to some extent?
I try to suggest an objective; certainly, since she said shes sick of sweet things, if we do something or other about it shell probably obediently return.
Uu~n, thats true, we should do something about itna.
Since there was no helping it, like that we spent about 30 minutes walking about the players cooking stalls that were around.
Even though its cooking that uses the same meat, since the flavorings are, as expected, different, it was a good experience.
The somewhat stingy Queen also bought food for takeout.
Anyway, with just all of this, it should be enough for you for now?
There are at least 30 kinds of meat and vegetable cooking collected together.
Since a large river or sea hasnt been found yet, there are no fish dishes.
Even if they were found, theres still no existence of a fishing Skill.
Un, with this I can do my best and face the future.
Good grief, it was unexpected expenses, butmaa, I guess its fine.
In order to avoid standing out, right now were on the outskirts of town.
Im just gonna say this once; dont up and poof over here often, since it stands out.
If a thorns piercing you, you need to take it out immediately, but in spite of me saying it
Right then, see you later~
Are the words the Queen left behind when she left with Teleport.
This is a troublesome Ring, this thing is
With a single sigh, feeling like my happiness is running off somewhere but I shouldnt mind it, I head over to the forge.
Its just about getting to a point where I absolutely have to improve the Blade Shoes.

A/N: The Queen this time appears to have lots of responsibility for throwing Earths life into confusion.
Even though shes supposed to be a sub character shes moving around on her own
