Since Gumi had added… 700 words to the chapter, interested readers may have a look and see whether the addition was necessary…
You may proceed to the next chapter if you’re not interested, hehe
We split and began preparing the BBQ. I had Aiya, Teresa and Celia-chan cut the vegetables. Lettuce, cucumber and tomato are best eaten raw since they are fresh, so thatβll be used as salad. The eggplants are cooked with the skin to make grilled eggplants, and the same for corn. The pumpkin was big and the skin was quite hard, so I cut it up.
Before, I had issues cutting pumpkins, but it might be due to my level having gone up, it became much easier now.
I took the pumpkins seed and cut it thin, then peeled it. The color is dark and it looks sweet, so Iβm looking forward to eating it. As for the rest is the essential meat.
βCan everyone cut this Blue Bull and Orc Meat like this?β
Fer and the rest are taking part, so we need a large amount. We had 3 people cutting the large amount of meat. I then decided to prepare another meat in the meantime.
βIβll make that with Rockbird meat!β
I decided to make some Jamaicaβs local cuisine cooking with the remaining Rockbird meat, jerk chicken. I heard rumors that it was delicious and then when I looked it up on the internet, everyone had good comments on it. Iβve been wanting to eat it forever, and itβll be even more delicious if grilled over charcoal.
Itβs easy to make good things now.
First of all, I purchased the ingredients from the Net Super. I purchased lemon, onion, garlic and jerk chicken seasoning, which is the decisive factor for the taste. There are two types of jerk chicken seasoning, one is in powder form and the other is as a drop from a jar, but the jar drop seems to be recommended.
I also bought the long-selling familiar grilled meat sauce for Blue Bull and Orc meat and charcoal for the BBQ stove.
βWell, time to make some jerk chicken. Still, the requirements are not that manyβ
First of all, after making a hole in the Rockbird meat with a fork, I sprinkled lemon juice on the meat and let it blend in. After that, grated onion, garlic, jerk chicken seasoning and a little bit of honey, then put it in a plastic bag along with the Rockbird meat and knead it a little so that the taste soaks in.
βAlright, letβs go to where everyone isβ
When I put a large amount of ingredients in the item box, I headed to where everyone was.
β
βAlrighty everyone, the sauce is readyβ
We had each person bring their own bowl and fork.
βThe meat is roasted, so you can eat it with sauce. Also, you should try the pumpkins. I tried tasting it a little now, and itβs just really sweetβ
I told everyone while taking the meat to Fer, Dora-chan and Sui.
βHere you go guysβ
They immediately began digging in as soon as I placed the plates in front of them.
ββUmu, itβs deliciousβ
ββJust like I thought, the meat grilled over charcoal is deliciousβ
ββSo goood!β
Indeed, the meat grilled over charcoal is different.
βItβs delicious!β
βThe fragrant of the roasted meat is something elseβ
βItβs really good when you add in this sauceβ
The Toni family and the Alban family were pecking at the food in harmony. As for the guards, they were eating silently. Hey, thereβs more so no need to eat in such a hurry. Wait, looking closely, two people were crying.
βDamn, this meat is so goodβ¦β
βYeah, meat sure is goodβ¦β
The two stupid twins were so impressed with the Blue Bull meat that they were filling their mouths and crying at the same time. However, they didnβt touch the Orc meat at all. I guess the trauma from the other day is still affecting them.
Well, itβll go away eventually and theyβll go back to eating it I guess.
βAh, donβt just eat meat, thereβs also salad that I prepared with a big variety of dressings!β
βMukouda-san, so you put this βdressingβ and eat it?β
βThatβs right Alban. This is sesame dressing, this is Japanese dressing and this is French dressing. My recommendation is sesame. Itβs fragrant and deliciousβ
βI see, then Iβll try the sesame seedsβ
With that said, Alban began tasting the salad with the sesame dressing. He mustβve found it so delicious that he made his wife Teresa and his children eat it as well.
After all, when thereβs vegetables thereβs gotta be salad. However, I want to eat meat first. I canβt help eating meat with this amazing smell.
βYup, delicious! This sauce is the best after allβ
ββHey, give me meatβ
ββGive me some tooβ
ββSui wants some too!β
βAlright, alright, give me a momentβ
I gave Fer and the other two another big portion of meat. Oh, is the eggplant done? It was cooked in a good condition. When making grilled eggplant, having it burn the skin is perfect.
βAiya, please take care of this. Everyone is eating meat like crazy so we need some moreβ
I left Aiya in charge of grilling the meat, then took out the bowl from the item box and called out to Fer.
βFer, can you put some ice in this bowl? Some small one pleaseβ
ββWhy do I have to do that while Iβm eating, thatβs a pain in the assβ
βSorry, but I need it to peel the skin of the grilled eggplantβ
ββGuess I have no choice. Here you goβ
The ice overflows in the bowl.
βWoahh, thatβs too much!β
Since it would be a waste, I moved the excess ice to another bowl and put it in the item box. Then, I put water in a bowl to make ice water, soaked the grilled eggplant in it for about 30 seconds and then took it out. Thereβs a notch around the calyx of the eggplant, so I peeled it off from the calyx in advance so that it comes out smooth and beautiful.
I cut it into a suitable size, arranged it on a plate and sprinkled with bonito and mentsuyuβ¦
βThe grilled eggplant is readyβ
When I gave it to everyone, the children and the guards reacted with a βHmmβ , while Toni, Aiya, Alban And Teresa seemed to be all excited about it, saying βDelicious!β.
Of course, I also enjoyed it. The grilled eggplant really is delicious.
Meanwhile, the corn was baked as well. This is very popular with children because itβs sweet and delicious. Costi-kun, Celia-chan, Oliver-kun, Erik-kun, Lotte-chan, every one of them was obsessed with it. Peter also seems to like sweets unexpectedly, so he was clinging to it as well.
I also like corn, so I added it to the net.
Even soβ¦
βI feel like drinking some beverage with this BBQβ¦β
βWhat, beverage you say?!β
The dwarf, Bartel responded to the word beverage.
βOh, thereβs beverages?β
βDo you want some?β
βOf course! Living here has been several times better than living as an adventurer, but thereβs only one thing Iβm unhappy about. I canβt drink enough!β
βHuh, didnβt you go to buy beverages the other day?β
I heard that he went to the town to buy beverages on his day off.
βThatβs right, but sometimes I just want to drink until I canβt anymoreβ
Of course, heβs a dwarf after all.
βAlright, todayβs a no-holds-barred party. Letβs all drink some beverages!β
When I said that, the adults (especially the guards) screamed. I immediately bought canned beer and childrenβs juice at the Net Super.
βThe children can drink juice from this plastic bottle. Twist it like this to open the lid. As for the adults, weβll be having canned beer. Just open this part up and press it to openβ
I showed everyone how to open it.
βAlright then everyone, cheers!β
ββ ββ ββ ββCheers!ββ ββ ββ ββ
Gulp, gulp. Beer is delicious!
βKahhh, itβs delicious! I didnβt expect a cold beverage to be this good. This calls for more meat!β
βItβs really delicious! I love this sensation of the drink passing through my throatβ
βDelicious beverages and meat, this is the best!β
Fufufu, thatβs right, thatβs right! However, thereβs other meat that goes better with beer. Itβs about time that the taste soaked in and itβs in good condition for sure.
βOkay, Iβm going to grill more meat that goes well with beer from now onβ
I opened the plastic bag that was placed on the table made with my earth magic, then put the Rockbird meat in the grill. Immediately, the spicy scent fills the area.
βW-What is this delicious scentβ¦β
βItβs an appetizing scentβ
Everyone had their eyes glued to the jerk chicken. I grilled the front and the back of it. Alright, this should be good enough.
βHere you go everyoneβ
While serving Fer, Dora-chan and Suiβs portion, I called out to everyone as well. In front of Fer, Dora-chan and Sui, I put a plate with a pile of jerk chicken.
ββOh, itβs some kind of cooking with plenty of aromas. Letβs try itβ¦ Umu, itβs quite delicious. It could be a little bit more spicyβ
ββWoa, itβs really good with this little spiciness!β
ββItβs true. Itβs spicy but delicious!β
Jerk chicken was also popular among Fer and the other two.
βAhh, this is just so good! It goes very well with this cold beverage!β
Bartel said so after drinking beer.
I mean, I chilled the canned beer in the bowl with the ice that Fer gave me earlier, but Bartel was going with all the momentum drinking it all by himself.
βBartel, youβre drinking too much on your own!β
βYeah, indeed!β
The two stupid twins protested, but Bartel showed no concern.
βItβs about who gets it first!β
While saying so, he opened another can of beer.
βAhh, there he goes again!β
βHahaha, another canned beer it is! Like I said, today is a no-holds-barred party. Drink up!β
While saying so and replenishing additional canned beer, I also opened the second beer.
βOhh, Mukouda-san, youβre the best!β
βAs expected from Mukouda-san!β
ββHey, I want moreβ
ββMe tooβ
ββSui too!β
βAlright, wait a bitβ
I put a heap of jerk chicken right before Fer and the others.
βEat away!β
βWeβll eat as well!β
βOf course!β
Everyone flocked around the spicy jerk chicken with a beer in one hand. After all, itβs fun to do BBQ in large numbers.
I like the edited version more, it flows a lot better and is ‘livelier? I suppose, the original version feels a lot more like Mukouda’s bland observation of everything that goes on around him.
I like unedited version more. It feels more Isekai and has better rhythm
Uuuhhh, not to disagree for the sake of disagreement but out of curiosity… how is it ‘better rhythm’ or ‘more isekai’?
Gumi is the type who likes to self improve.
All I can say is, Gumi is so talented.
Thank you, thank you.
This little skill of mine has the unfortunate side effect of making me spot mistakes and excessive ‘cuts’ that the local movie theatre made to make films shorter.
Gumi is also the type to talk during the movie.
The edited edition is definitely better. Really appreciated it.
Haha, the ‘beta’ version felt a little jumbled up to me.
Hm, while being shorter makes reading easier there are some points in this version that feel lacking. How should I put it, there’s very little “action” from any other character except Mukoda, and that’s a bit unfair in my opinion. The improved version of this chapter is much better. From nice to beautiful, so hats off to Gumi for the excellent work!
Thanks for the early(beta?) version of this chapter! Awesome translation! May God bless you!
Since I made so much changes, I thought it’s only fair to give the ‘beta’ version, lol.
Also, the story changed in the manga (often for the better), but they did cut a lot of dungeon scenes out.
Yeah, it does feel like it’s missing a bit of itself without those 700 words, this makes me appreciate all the work you put in, gumi,). Thanks!
