Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?
Chapter 98
Some time had passed since the large flood monsters at Wedgefort, and we’re back in Volton. Frankly, we were relieved from duty the day after the flood, but Marnie, whose level had suddenly risen, was eager to go out and Kaede, who had evolved from an Archenie to an Arachne, wanted to check her body’s rhythm, so we went looking for monsters around Wedgefort.
Having turned into an Arachne, Kaede’s spider lower half had gotten one size larger, and the appearance of her top half changed from that of a small child to one of a female high school student. Furthermore, she acquired Dark attribute magic, so it seems magic training was fun.
Since returning to Volton, we haven’t gone to Barack-san’s training at the Adventurers Guild. Currently, we train just by ourselves at the garden at home.
「It’s been a while since we’ve had nothing to do.」 「Since we’ve been so busy as of late, let’s rest our bodies.」 「Everyone, we have tea.」
Marnie and Maria had brewed some tea and brought it here.
「We baked cookies today.」 「Let me see, ……yup, the smell of butter is nice.」 「Cookies are tasty!」
Kaede evolved, but her mental age hasn’t changed that much. Well, it can’t be helped since it’s only been 5 or 6 years since she was born.
「Really though, making butter and cheese had turned out well. Our menu has increased thanks to that.」 「Still, the cookies are delicious. I wasn’t able to eat sweet things, after all. I want my brother to taste this too.」 「Laeva, cookies keep for a long time so wouldn’t it be alright to send some? If you like, why not even cast a State Preservation enchantment on the box?」 「That’s right, if that’s the case then how about sending a variety of other foodstuff too?」 「Eh!? Is that alright?」
When Sophia and I said that it’s alright to send cookies made with plenty of expensive sugar and butter, Laeva was shocked as well as delighted.
「The cookies can be made by Maria and Marnie, and if the box is enchanted with State Preservation, even you can do it now, right Laeva?」 「Yes! Thank you very much!」
Leava replied cheerfully, immediately running to the workshop to make a box with State Preservation.
Then everyone aside from Sophia who was bad at cooking and Laeva who secluded herself in the workshop prepared dinner.
Dinner that day was Maria’s baked bread and macaroni gratin with white sauce, and the potato salad Marnie made.
「Taaasty!」 「H-hot! But it’s delicious.」
Kaede and Laeva became ecstatic from eating gratin. Everyone in the house except for Sophia, Kaede and me had a hard time eating. Laeva’s community was still poor, and Maria was from Moulin-san’s slavery company so I believe it wasn’t terrible, but she didn’t have extravagant meals. Maybe because they have those reactions that I love eating with everyone.
「Puhaa, it’s more delicious having ale cold.」 「Drinking chilled white wine is also delicious.」 「How luxurious. It’s like a dream.」
The ale I’m drinking and the white wine Sophia and Marnie are having were chilled with magic.
We began making our own ale and wine. Of course, it was made in a short time with 『Fermentation』 and 『Aging』 magic. But I made, failed, and remade it until I was satisfied with the taste.
「But Takumi is talented in even making alcohol.」 「No, ale is fermented on the surface so it’s easy to make the machinery, and as for the wine, the taste still isn’t there.」 「That’s not the case. It is not the best wine, but I think it has a flavor between the first and second class.」
Techniques for making alcohol is kept secret even in Mildgard. It is monopolized by a small amount of nobles and the church. Cheap alcohol like ale seem to be made everywhere, but I can’t bring myself to drink lukewarm ale.
This is a good life.
