180 3. Beginning of production

The Eight Yen Tower, inhabited by the great sage Vainamarinen, was secluded in an unknown deep mountain valley.

The walls and moats stretch through the towers that exist in the centre, surrounded by seven spires. It is also said that the original is an ancient site, but the present master does not speak in silence.

That alone is a difficult castle to attack, but very few know exactly where it is in the first place.

Also, assuming you knew its location, you would have to overcome the raids of thousands of meter-class mountains and dangerous monsters such as Griffon, Katobre Pass and Cerberus to reach the Eight Circle Tower. In addition to several dragons, it is impossible to break in from the sky where giant birds (ruffles) and cloud sea white whales (cloud halls) roam.

In other words, the only way to enter the Eight Yen Tower is to be invited by its Lord.

The last person to qualify for it at the moment entered the private room of the Greatest Wise Man to Gather Most Respect in the Brewers, and sighed heavily.

"Jii, what are you doing..."

In a room with an accurate representation that you brought a desk into the library rather than a study. Magic lights illuminate the surroundings of Vainamarinen.

The great sage had rounded his splendid body and operated a laptop computer.

So far, let's say good. It's not very good, but Yut himself is responsible for it.

"If you ask, you'll see."

"My brain refuses to understand."

I'm not too familiar with it, but what I heard from speakers driven by bus power was like the audio I read out on speech synthesis software. It's uncomfortable, but I know exactly what you're talking about.

"Hey, just a little consolation. In the future, think about whether you can reproduce the curse."

"I made it up, technomancer or something, so stop it."

The curse is a kind of magic that is manipulated by those called Bards (Birds) and causes a variety of effects through singing and dancing. Many affect the spirit of the organism.

Of course, it doesn't just activate if you sing, and it doesn't matter if you're good or bad. Just like Jonah's psychic powers (Cyonics), they are dictated by talent.

"Then it was still better to be experimented with whether recording and playing the curse would work"

"It's over."

It didn't work, but I laugh happily.

Yut held his head wondering if it was too late.

"So what can I do for you?"

"I came to ask you out a little bit, or if you didn't tell me, I'd come to speak to the old man because he's going to say one later, but I'm starting to regret it sooner or later."

"Hmm. I'm just getting tired of digitizing my books. Talk, talk."

"That's what you did..."

When I was thinking about how to dispose of precious science spells, books about alchemy, chronicles, museum magazines, diaries and other collections because they became so vast, they recommended it at the appliance mass retailer.

To this end, I had even purposefully purchased a bath-powered powerable flatbed scanner.

This way you won't take a place, and the great sage who shakes like a child that printing is only possible where you need it later.

Yut being asked about it is a disaster. When I hear about digitization, etc., from a great sage like Fantasy itself, I get a headache by accident.

"That's okay, isn't it pretty expensive?

"I don't mind."

There are magic devices (magic items) that make sense in the form of books, so of course, not everything. However, it is important to break the contents and not the format.

"It's too advanced, Mr. Jii..."

"Don't praise me. But we're not getting on with this. What an invitation."

"I will start making soy sauce and paper in the Earl of Istas, so why not take a tour? Even so, I'm still in the process of doing a prototype, so I think I'll be able to show you the steps."

Anyway, I can't keep it hidden. The theory is that if you are noticed, you will be asked to demonstrate it, so you can call it from the beginning, and you will eat anything you dislike first.

It's not guaranteed if there's anything left to like.

"Why don't you just say that?"

The lightweight Great Sage of Footwork responds instantly and stands up with only his favorite spell document in his hand. Keep trying to use Moment Move (Teleport)...

"Wait! This isn't a fortress in Falve."

"Then why don't you say so first?"

"Oh, already. Fuck you, you jizzy bastard."

Regret.

That may be a word that exists for Yut today.

"Soy sauce can actually be the same way to make miso"

Kera Forest Settlement. Originally, nature worshippers (Druids) lived a minimally civilized life, and now dragon dwellers (Dragonuts) migrating from the Oriental world of Li Kutua lived there.

Gathered in the square, they are partially characterized by dragons, such as those whose skin is scaled in the same way as kagra, those whose nails are that of dragons, and those whose tongues are like reptiles.

Seeing that, Acorn doesn't think anything in particular. That's what some people say.

I never thought of Exile with rocky skin in the sense of appearance, Larsia as a child but an adult, and Ren as a half elf, also out of common sense on earth, but creepy, etc.

Sometimes it's highly receptive, and it would be because I saw an example of a normal human being - apart from wrapping his whole body around it with spineless chains - but the inside was unusual, such as Darla, who had him escorted in a perennial dense forest.

"Instructions include washing the soybeans, soaking them overnight in water and boiling them until tender"

"Sure, it's the same"

Like a cooking show assistant, Kagra hammers from the side.

The women in the gathering listened to the two of them as they ate in.

The deliciousness of soy sauce has already been preached by behaving as a dish.

Not everyone admired us, but we can make it ourselves. If no, the heat will also be applied.

"The difference is to stir in the soy and mix the crushed flour."

Show everyone the knowledge of different worlds examined in the name of recipes.

And I also mixed this with a chunk of soy that I was asking Kagra to prepare.

"Mostly, I need to put this to bed for about three days."

In the meantime fermentation takes place and the cobalt can be formed. The problem with Koji bacteria is not a problem because it was originally made from miso. I cleaned up the barrel earlier, and now I put the barrel with the cobalt that I had already put to bed in front of everyone.

"So, this is what put me to sleep. Next thing I know, I can add salt water - salt water and make it look like a soy sauce ingredient called" mortar "..."

If you can get to the corn, just squeeze it later and soy sauce is done.

Years of problems get stuck here, however.

"Then, more or less, you have to put him to sleep while mixing for more than six months..."

"Really..."

Too bad, an old dragon woman sighs. I'm worried I'll live until then - not that it's simply a thought that results come first.

Making soy sauce takes time and effort. That would also be a matter of degree, but it would be much less hassle to bring in even commercial condiments from Japan by now.

Still, Yut and Akane focused on production in the Brewers.

Because there is certainty that this traditional seasoning will be accepted by the Brewers.

Of course, there are grounds. When I cooked the meat marinated in a teriyaki sauce and behaved like Valtrude and the others as a tasting, etc.

"You don't smell meat at all. It's a flavor I've never had here, but it's definitely acceptable."

"I thought anything would be good if I ate it, but the delicious ones are delicious"

"It will depend on the price, but a lot of people will want it"

"Yummy."

"Come on, Acorn. Shall we sign a little exclusive agreement?"

- And he was admired with his hands up.

Most importantly, the Valtrudes should be discounted somewhat because they have experience travelling to Earth, but they still have a chance.

To begin with, Acorn intended to serve a dish made with soy sauce for the wedding of Prince Alsace and Eudit.

If you get a reputation there, the buyer must also come with it.

"But I can't wait this time, so I'll skip that area with a spell"

"Hi, I'm here to skip"

"Whoa, boy"

In anticipation of the timing, two archmages (Arch Mage) show up in the square where a soy sauce course is taking place. At the same time, pour the saline into the barrel while the cagra looks slightly worried.

Yuut, who washed his hands thoroughly with less soap left, cleverly cleaved for three pages with his backhand while having Acorn support the spell document.

"Corruption"

A theoretical spell on the third staircase that progresses the corruption of the “object” touched. Originally developed for the purpose of keeping corpses from rotting and using resuscitation spells.

But corruption and fermentation are synonymous so that growth and aging are the same.

It was a color similar to miso. That gradually darkened, and the song decreased and the liquid increased. To be sure, it gets closer to soy sauce. The scent is also soy sauce itself.

"Hey, why don't you ask me to do it, but it sounds like you're sending it fast. Spells are amazing."

"I hope it helps."

Although I have some thoughts, I can't say anything when I put in front of a look full of the expectations of the women watching.

"Damn, that's a lame way to use it! Kid!"

The most obvious thing was Vainamarinen.

I just practiced a couple of times before this workshop - that's right, I can't do it in bump production - and the fermentation is going well.

Simply shorten the few months to about thirty minutes and then naturally filter the soy sauce in a squeeze bag.

"That's how I prototyped the soy sauce for everyone to taste just now. But I can't rely on spells forever, so I want everyone to practice."

"If it's pretty much the same as miso, you'll be fine."

"Right. If you can eat, I'll do as much as I want."

It was a fairly simplified explanation, but the woman inside is well motivated.

There are still as many difficult problems as temperature control, but soy sauce making in Count Istas began this way.

Meanwhile, Yut and Vainamarinen leave the scene and head to the rally point inside where Jinga waits.

"I can't take the smell..."

"Better than the smell of blood."

"Think of it as other HR."

"Everyone else but yourself."

"Sometimes, the public gets fooled because they say things that seem to have this kind of inclusiveness"

But there's nothing I can do about the fragrant smell drifting from one hand. Even if I use soap to wash it, it still seems sticky.

"If we can demonize the" Corruption "spell in the container so fermentation can proceed on its own......"

"We need to make sure the barrel itself rots."

Yut renews his determination to throw him a round next while he sees something rare and looks sideways at the great sage in his upper mood.

Next, that is, a meeting on paper.

"It's late"

A murderous indoor like a village public hall. There is a rug that is wide enough and sorry enough for the people inside to get together. So the men inside gathered under Jinga, who became the head of the inside, to see a face full of difficulty.

"This is Lord Yut."

Zinga, who consolidated herself in her formal attire, gave way to her seat and herself refrained from taking sides in the front seat.

I think it's a big deal, but I did what I thought I did. I can't do it without it.

"So, what are the prospects for paper making?"

"No particular problem,"

"Really?

Unexpectedly, I listened back with vegetables.

What was the dark face earlier?

Meanwhile, Vainamarinen, not knowing such Yut's confusion, did not hesitate to grab a snack prepared for tasting and carry it to his mouth.

"This guy is pretty tasty. We should make and sell more and more."

"Mr. Jii, you remember what you came here for, right?

"Never mind the details."

Vainamarinen says away with ease as she cheeks on the grilled rice balls just coated with soy sauce.

"The prototype has already been done"

"I hear that... Uh, you mean you can source raw materials and stuff in this forest, too?

"It's not the same as what I used in Li Kutua, but it's possible to substitute. If all the craftsmen come here, as long as we have a full-scale workshop, there will be no problem with mass production."

Zinga, of course, I would add, depending on the amount you need. Yut, on the other hand, makes a difficult face.

"I don't mind if you make it however you like..."

"Hmm. In the East, do you make paper from trees"

"To be precise, I would use a wooden skin."

Yut blinks at the interaction between Vainamarinen and Zinga. There were unexpected words flying around.

"I mean, paper's made of wood, right?

"What do you think parchment is?"

"Oh......"

That is literally true.

"Plus, regular paper is crushed, melted and processed."

"Are you serious?"

I didn't know...... and hold my head.

Because of the focus on making miso, the failure to investigate was the cause of defeat.

"The paper I know feels like finely crushing the tree itself as well as the skin..."

Or produce it with the spell of "Manufacturing"?

"That's a way we don't know either..."

"... ok. I'll put my knowledge together by next time."

"If so, will I be given a tour of the papermaking process?"

Although it is a secret to the doorstep, the story is clear from Yut. In the first place, Yuto also knows how to make Japanese paper is blurry, so it doesn't make sense to keep it a secret.

The dragon man of the papermaker leads the way, and the great sage quickly leaves the rally point behind. Like a kid going to an amusement park.

If this bothers you, paper making will push on that old man. If you also have a set of hard copy prints, you're sure to eat them. At least, you should need printer paper.

Yut, so determined on his own, turned back to Jinga and cut to a stand-alone direct entry.

"... So, what's the problem?

"Actually, rice making is better..."

That's important, Yut urges ahead.

"The climate is fine. It's acceptable, but I don't know what the land is."

There's no problem with the water, but the soil doesn't seem to be very good, and they say that fertility is one thing now.

"If possible, I was wondering if you could use the jewels."

Treasures (artifacts), jewels of the earth.

A symbol of the dragon emperor dedicated to Yut.

If I didn't have the qualifications or readiness to do so, I decided I didn't have one.

That, suddenly, appeared before Yut.
