Isekai Cheat Survival Meshi

"I thought this was a knowledge I wouldn't use for a while either, but I don't know"

Back at the base, Yu had assembled a simple kamado and started a fire.

Sparks were prepared with wood bars and plant fibers, using the so-called 'bow-cutting' firing method.

Fire-fighting experience. It is a technique learned at such an event. Knowledge that would otherwise be classified as' waste knowledge 'is useful in Japan, and Yu laughs bitterly.

Leaking exhalation into the warmth of the fire was also there, and Yu took a pet bottle that turned into a trap.

Remove one of them, crustaceans, and observe.

"But... that's an interesting snail."

Seeing the captured small crustaceans, Yu leaked an exclamation sigh.

─ ─ First, the crustaceans had small scissors on them. At this size, you won't be able to cut off your fingers, but I don't know as much about the force. While holding it down with stone, Yu recommends an observation.

The crustacean shape, in a nutshell, was cylindrical. Beautifully organized cylindrical like a bundled coin. Yu feels that this place is different from the rest of the world due to its well-adjusted shape, which is not often seen in the nature of the earth.

But that expression still didn't make it right.

Crustaceans held down by stone tried to escape oppression or stretched out their bodies.

... This shape is called a telescopic. Telescopic is an elastic structure in which cylindrical objects are layered in order of size. It is a commonly used mechanism for telescopes, fishing rods, etc. that can change the entire length by pulling out or delivering them.

That's what Yo is seeing right now. The shells of the cylindrical crustaceans overlap with several independent ones, probably stretched by the movement of the organisms inside.

"Wow... I knew this was a different world"

The structure itself is not uncommon in Earth's civilization. There are many machines that employ this, and it is something that is used from hobbies to weapons.

But as far as you know, there are still no organisms with this structure.

Nevertheless, I can't even just be impressed. Eating an organism with the same rationality as art was only a little rocky, but only one person could live without eating something more than just being thrown out into nature.

Decided that the threat would be few, Yu enters the cooking of crustaceans named cylindrical shrimp.

"I guess there are spies... Then it would be best if I pulled my head out..."

With this structure, if you pick the tip, you might be able to take your finger to a shrunken clap. No body, but let's crush the stretched head before cooking.

Yu, who decided on the policy of cooking, held the cylindrical shrimp down with stone, holding a slightly smaller stone with his free hand. The cylindrical shrimp is still stretching its head trying to escape compression. Turn there, swing the stone down!

But...

"Hmm!? Stiff!?

Even though the stone shot the stone and sounded dull, the head of the cylinder shrimp was not shattered. The exposed eye is crushed, stunned by impact, but still (probably) alive.

You wave a paralyzed hand as you marvel at the hard shell by the unusual.

"Well... I don't know what to do with this....... I care a lot, do I have to bake it alive?

From the touch, the shell of the cylinder shrimp was very strong everywhere.

Yu had no choice but to give up cooking and throw it into the fire alive.... the idea is that if you burn and die first, you might be able to break a shell that has become brittle with heat.

Yu decided so, during the course of making the bedding, and then took out the large leaves he had prepared.

Nudge the shrimp into this and bake it in a wrap.

A hassle-free cooking method even if it's in the mountains if you can prepare a fire, that's wrapping and grilling.

Arrange and wrap cylindrical shrimp over large leaves. After that, if you roll this up and put it on fire, the wrapping and baking will be complete.

But when the cylinder shrimp fell on the leaves, Yu stopped moving perfectly.

"... what? This feeling…"

Nine cylindrical shrimps on the leaves, including the first one. But I got a feeling from two of them that I'd never experienced before.

"... I have a bad feeling"

It's not fear or disgust. It's... it's just a 'hunch'. I feel something disgusting. The shrimp is overflowing with black violin.... so visionary, enough nanica to appeal to sight.

From what I've seen, nothing has turned into either of those two. But Yu couldn't shake off the hunch, and just in case he chose two, he decided to wrap them in another leaf.

... Once you put it on fire, all you have to do is wait. The wrapping and baking - especially considering the parasites, etc. - takes time to be done. If he had only waited, Yu was once again arousing interest in ingredients from different worlds.

Check your smartphone from time to time to see how much time has passed. Because of the lack of charging means, this will eventually become unusable as well. It's only for a moment to turn it on. If Yu had been a little calmer, he might have turned it off, but Yu, who stood up, didn't realize it. Even if the smartphone power was alive, it wouldn't be a stepping stone to the rescue, so there's no problem.

... I don't know how different worlds are, but the wait time would have been boring. But Yo wasn't bored. Influenced by fathers who love the outdoors, camping is no longer a habit. So it wasn't uncommon to spend these hours, and...

"Stars...... you look beautiful. I guess there's no exhaust gas or anything."

Because the sky you see in different worlds was just a fantasy landscape. The objects like the great moon...... were white, showing strongly in conjunction with the stars that this is the land of the other kingdom.

It's a miraculous celestial show on Earth. Something to say that the waiting time is just around the corner.

"... it's time to do it"

The branches were used to cleverly unload the leaves from the fire, and Yu slowly opened the leaves with heat.

At that moment, a sweet smell rises with warm hot air. So is the cylindrical shrimp that is emitting the smell, but the big leaves were playing a part.

To the smell of beating your appetite, Yu drinks Tsuba, but this is where the problem starts.

To eat this, you have to do something about the shell that is not even stoned.

Even a strong shell would be impossible to remove in the heat. Heat is one luxury in a mountain of inconvenience compared to the city. It seemed a waste to lose it.

"Damn...... can you handle it...... yeah?

Yu picks the cylindrical shrimp unconsciously to make sure the heat is lost even while doing this.

The voices of doubt that arose were those that came out at that time.

"... soft!

The shell of the cylinder shrimp, which was so strong until earlier, was soft enough to sink when pressed with a finger.

Was it good that it was heated? Yet Yu had a delightful voice for the softness that the earlier intensity could not have imagined.

If you pull your leg, the shell makes a peppery, petty sound and walks away from you.

Trapped in the shell, his body was steamed and burnt, and he gained momentum and hot air. For this reason, the flavor is likely to be sealed up all the time.

"I'll have..."

The red and white stripes that leave the mistletoe are the same as shrimp and crabs. An unknown flavor that no one on earth has ever eaten yet.

Dominated by the excitement of exchanging slight fears, Yu carried the body of a cylindrical shrimp into his mouth.

Firstly, it was the strong sweetness, felt in common by crabs and shrimps, that spread in the mouth.

When I let my teeth eat hard into my body full of prickly elasticity, I guess I was using it to stretch, muscles bounce well and exude a savory extract from the severed area.

Tastes as close to shrimp as it looks. But was it because of the contraction of the long stretching body, the density of which was beyond comparison?

Also, the smell is better. It has a sweet chestnut flavour. All in all - you can say that the flavor is pretty good.

"Yummy......!... but"

But. Algae blemishes intersect as they chew through. This was due to my inability to remove my spine. I would have twitched the back of a steamed cylinder shrimp if it was in a cool state, but still the smell would turn for some of you at the time you cooked it at the same time.

Besides, there is still the harm of not removing the shell before cooking.

"You have a bad texture... it's jarring..."

Gravel in the shell or impurities in my back. They were disturbing the texture of an honest muscle full of elasticity.

But aside from that, Yu was satisfied.

Tastes and aromas are pretty superior to Earth's shrimp. The dissatisfaction is probably due mostly to the cooking method. It was also nice to have food for a small amount. Although bite-sized, the condensed body is zooming and heavy.

In the end, satisfaction was well above the dissatisfaction point. After the second one, Yu finished his meal to devour by cluttering but twitching his back and so on, hands together.

"If I knew how to cook properly, it would have tasted better. Thank you very much."

Not so much in quantity, but Yu felt unmatched and full.

... That's why I wish I could have pretended not to see that.

"I can't do that either..."

The two shrimps that I cooked separately earlier are the ones that I would like to see.

Even now that it has been cooked, the two selected have a different presence.

We have to be sure of what is making us do that, even then.

Yu, who took one of the divided ones, observed it carefully, slightly cooled. Changing the angle and observing from various perspectives doesn't look unusual.

However, when the shell is peeled, at least a distinct difference appears from the earlier cylindrical shrimps.

"These bumps... eggs, huh?

Under the shell of his leg, he found a gathered yellow grain.

As Yu expected, this object was the egg of an organism he called a cylindrical shrimp.

That's the only difference so far. Still, even more intensely, "unpleasant feeling" increases than earlier.

"No way, no way"

Yu had a feeling about it.

… it is possible that Yu, who has a strong interest in wild ingredients, is most afraid.

Put just a grain of egg on your finger and drop it on your tongue. I fixed it with my lips and tongue and pinched it with my puffy teeth.

If you're getting a hunch, it 's--

"Gi!? I'm not disappointed! Beh-heh!

Substances harmful to the human body. In other words, it is poison.

"Poison! Poison. This! I don't like it, but my throat is crazy!

In an attempt to reduce even a slight amount of absorption, Yu exhales a saliva called saliva in his mouth.

But when the contents of an egg mixed with just a little bit of saliva reached his throat, an unimaginable Iggy sensation jumped around his throat. It feels more unpleasant to yasle your throat than pain.

Yu finally exhales when he rushes with the water he drank into his pet bottle.

"Uh... but now you know.... Was that nasty feeling that you were reacting to poison"

An ominous hunch I feel by the time I'm unusual about 'food'.

It was poison-sensitive.

"Do you feel like the ability you acquired because you came to another world... or something?... I feel something else or I might have to try it"

"Ability to Sense Poison". Yu, who turns what he experienced into words, was calm against the anomaly of the situation. For Yu, who quite preferred subculture, because he felt it was not strange to have some ability to accompany the otherworldly metastasis.

In a way, it can be said that it was able to tolerate paranormal phenomena. Absurd psychics were also in different worlds if they thought they were dead - what a common sense range from a situation.

"But... you're capable of dreaming! You might be able to handle this!

More than that, Yu had a joyful voice and a full grin.

The ability to detect the poison of ingredients is too subtle compared to the protagonists of the various adventure tans, but for Yu, it was a ship on the crossing, a dream ability, as we said.

There are tens of millions of flora and fauna in this world. There will still be a few unknown tastes in it that people have never tasted before. However, a number of obstacles must be crossed for humans to know the taste. In the search for an unknown taste, poison can be described as one of the common disorders.

Naturally. Something bad happens if you eat poison. Poison therefore. Few people will eat things that they do not know if they are poisonous until they take the risk.

But there must be a few things as appealing to the taste of the unknown as Yu. For these people, they seek an unknown taste, but the unknown becomes the enemy.

Food is what nurtures life. In a world full of safe ingredients, it can't be possible to hang your life on food. That's why - if there was such a thing as the power to tell if food was poisonous. That should be fascinating everywhere for those who want an unknown taste.

... If you didn't have this power, Yu wouldn't have any accumulation of knowledge in this other world and would be eating things that are likely to be eaten.

Each time, he will challenge the Russian Roulette.

Coming here now to the other world, I could say that he had no more luck in gaining that power.

"Somehow, I think I can live..."

I was also aware of that fact. That's why I made a fool of myself and pretended not to notice.

Unless the odds are zero, it will be difficult not to hit that decisively enough to increase the number of attempts. It should all be 'that sort of thing' anyway.

That's just like slowly going to death if you eat to live.

Yu was now able to remove one 'bullet' from the revolver gun magazine.

... Notice, the sky is already dark. Looks like the mountains are getting a little chilly too. When you exhale to extrude the warmth of the fire, your white breath glows red and colors the night sky.

"Don't get busy tomorrow, let's go to bed already today"

Sleeping beds and food issues were the only solutions, but now we still have a pile to do.

I just walked into my perky bunk and Yu closed his eyes.

Mountains are not complete silence. Voices of insects, inexperienced animals, and the sound of the grass trees they trample on play disorderly music.

In doing so, you feel loneliness stronger than wonder and silence.

But Yu must be part of it for at least some time to come.

Renewing her determination, Yu began to take a nap.

... Survival is the first thing you do when you come to another world. Though it may never have been a gentle environment - Yu took a step towards the earth of the other world with anticipation and hope in his heart.
