Isekai Cheat Survival Meshi

"Well... can't you find anything interesting?"

Just as the sun climbed directly above him, Yu was leaving base camp to procure food.

Because of the increased need for food, it is to gather ingredients in a wide range of areas.

Backpacks are packed with abundant ingredients instead of daily items.

Whatever the taste, it's all poisonless. It's a clean 'ingredient' that would be a gift of Yu's ability.

Yu gets in a better mood as his back weighs more. The effort to gather ingredients is harder than it was yesterday, but I wasn't tired.

Because he was more energetic than when he came to another world, although he didn't really realize it.

"I think I can take those nuts."

Then, looking up at the tree, the oval red fruit caught my eye. I moved my gaze over the tree without any foretaste because Yu was concerned 'somehow'.

... This was also one of the forces that was rooted in Yu. Should I say sense of smell for edible things? Not only was "discerning the presence or absence of poison", but Yu became more likely to notice "edible" food than "harmless" objects since he came to this world, attracting a stronger interest.

"Slightly."

─ ─ Bend over and untie the body.

Meanwhile, Yu's gaze is poured on the red fruit, which is about four meters above the tree.

After finishing "Prep Exercise," Yo gets used to his body, and when he sets his aim, he starts climbing trees.

Instead of - jumped up vertically.

As it is pulled with thread upwards, Yu's body rises in the opposite direction of gravity.

And... grabbed the nuts four meters above the ground.

"hehe, yay"

Vertical jump with no aid and no special motion. That's all, Yu had the fruit in his hand in a much higher position from a human leap.

That, needless to say, is an anomaly. Vertical jumping is the limit for even the top players in the world, about seventy centimeters. The position of the raised hand alone cannot be reached from the surface to a position of about four meters.

Well, on unstable soil ground, you make it up lightly.

"Since I've been in this world, I've been in good shape. You mean you're getting stronger every day... because you're eating delicious meshi?

I joke and say it, but I haven't realized it's not a joke yet.

... Yes, Yo was getting stronger every time he ate. That's enough to fly more than two meters with a light vertical jump.

I guess the only reason I don't notice the anomaly is because I was used to the light novel of - for better or worse - going to a different world when I realized it.

"Mmm, delicious. That's as apple-like texture as it looks. 'Cause it's wild, but modest in sweetness."

To put it another way, it's a bigger reason than that.

I don't realize my ability to 'be strong enough to eat' is nothing more than because after all, Yu's interest was being swept into ingredients from different worlds.

"Whoa, the blue leaves I saw on the first day of this.... it looks like there's no poison."

Now Yu's interest had shifted to another ingredient. The subject of my next interest is The Blue Leaf, which I saw on my first day. Except for a small part of it, it picks up and smells blue leaves that are basically said not to exist in nature.

The smell of acidity. I can flatter my cheeks with a more subtle scent than it looks.

When he soiled and sipped the leaves, the strong sweetness spread to his tongue.

"Sweet......! Sounds like fruit......!

Makes your eyes glow over flavors you can't imagine from the way they look. A leaf with a strong sweetness was my first experience.

Sweet leaves are also found on Earth, but Yu has never eaten them yet.

When he finds out he's good enough for food, Yu puts a whole piece in his mouth.

Though there is a feeling of sticking to teeth and tongues as a raw leaf-specific shade, the thick leaves are squeaky and stingy, with a refreshing aroma and strong sweetness bouncing in the mouth after each bite.

"This might please her, too. Let's get a little more."

The blue leaves of the flock are picked out. Quantitatively, it's far from a "meal," but when you pick up enough as a preference, Yu sets out to procure ingredients again.

On that face, there was still no fatigue. We need to collect more ingredients - and this is no more than a chance to see more ingredients and eat them now.

Walk up the mountain while throwing in a bag of easily consumed fruits and mushrooms.

"Oh... spectacular..."

... Eventually, Yu arrived at the rocks. What was spreading there was a rocky ground exposed by yellowing rocks.

The surface is white as blown powder, reflecting the sun's light and shining. I accidentally leaked my breath to that beautiful sight, but I was surprised at it for a little while. Relax your expression immediately and Yu rushes to the rocks.

"Maybe...!

It can be said that it is very rare for Yu, who shows great interest in ingredients only, to show interest in rocks no matter how beautiful they look.

"Salt... rock salt!

But it didn't seem 'unusual' this time either. An unusual stone, of a different colour than a commonly found rock. Yu rushed to the rocks with excitement because he knew it existed.

What spread over my tongue was the 'natural' taste I haven't felt in a long time.

─ ─ Rock salt. It was the most important seasoning, salt, which was the basis of the dish.

"I was hoping to take it someday because of the sea... you were lucky to get it in the mountains!

Not only is it the backbone of a wide range of culinary flavors, but it is also the nutrient that creatures need to live on. This was undoubtedly a last resort, with no major movement or special means.

"The poison doesn't seem to be a problem either. Now you can eat something delicious!

Salt, needless to say, is a seasoning that we were used to seeing on Earth.

But Yu was excited to be able to get it in the mountains. Even for a meal that would have been richer - because I felt like I was now connected to a far away world.

"So it's time to go home...?

Nevertheless, Yo is already solidifying his willingness to spend time in 'here'. Use the word "unconsciously return," and push the broken rock salt into the bag.

but the word butt wasn't a strong tight one, it was full of badly fluffy water drifting ambiguities.

Because I've found a new 'subject of interest'.

On a rock of salt, some visible black dots. But it was moving, and...

Yu approaches a small object in such a way as to be afraid.

If you look closer, it's...

"Scroll shells......? Shellfish? In these mountains, on rock salt?

It was a small organism, shelled. The name is Earth, the name of an organism that lives in the sea.

Hiya, and shellfish sticking to the rocks? Lift yo.

"Is there anything unusual about it? No poison. From what I can see, it's shellfish."

Once confirmed to be edible, Yu observes shellfish with a surprising gaze.

Looks like shellfish. There's nothing funny about it. Unless you're on a mountain without a water field.

"Mountain shellfish... what does it taste like...?

Just stay on the mountain. That's all you might think, but for Yu, the wonder was an object of ample interest.

I guess the structure of the body is different, even if it is similar to shellfish, than living on a mountain. If so, what the hell does this creature taste like?

Unable to contain the excitement, Yu collects provisional shellfish. I wouldn't make any intense moves, but I locked him in my lunchbox because he's a creature.

"I got a lot of stuff, and you're done for the day. I'm looking forward to seeing what it tastes like...!

Ghehe, but with a look of joy that seemed to add, Yu went home.
