(Kaoru) 「Could you lend me the kitchen」

I requested to the owner after taking a breather in the inn.

Yup, if they don’t serve sashimi at the restaurant, I could just make it myself.

I’m already accustomed in making sashimi in my previous life.

With a family of five, it’s better to buy the big ones (Saku) instead of the sashimi itself.

(TL Note: Saku)

Well, it’s not always restricted to buying the big ones, but for me, it’s still better to buy and cut it yourself just before you eat it rather than the ones that had been cut by someone since the morning.

The sashimi’s taste will definitely drop because the surface that had been cut will be exposed to the air for a long time.

On the other hand, cutting the big ones by pulling the knife slowly as not to tear the cells from the surface and place wasabi on top of it, mmm~!

 

(Owner) 「Hou, what kind of food do you want to cook Now’s not the time to prepare for meals so it’s alright to use it for a while, but I will also watch properly.

It’s a condition for if it might turns into a dangerous situation or you mess up the utensils.」

Yeay!

As not to be replied stiffly, I want to make it more simple than usual so that it will be suitable for the inn.

(Kaoru) 「Sashimi, umm, I will cut a raw fish into thin strips and eat it with seasonings! Because the seasonings were already prepared, I will use only a kitchen knife and a cutting board to make them…… 」

(Owner) 「I won’t allow it」

Eh

You said I could just a couple of minutes ago!

The owner pulled back with a lavishly stiffen face when I scowled at him.

 

(Owner) 「I-it’s useless to threaten me! L-like I said, I won’t allowed it!」

……it’s not like I’m glaring or something, why are you so frightened……, no, it’s fine.

(Kaoru) 「Why can’t I!」

In response to my question, the owner responded with a shocked face this time.

(Owner) 「This is an inn and essentially a cafeteria, you know.

On the day when it is rumored that customers who ate the dishes prepared in our cafeteria were taken to doctors, customers won’t come and it will be a problem!」

(Kaoru) 「Ah……」

Certainly, in the process of spreading the rumor, the part where 『the customer cooked her own food』 will be omitted first.

Then, with some irrelevant exaggeration, weird and malicious rumors will spread.

Yup, just like Earth’s network environment….

.

 

(Kaoru) 「It will be absolutely okay, I promise……」

(Owner) 「No means no, I have too many things I can’t afford to lose, to trust a child who I just met and risk her safety is absolutely a no.」

(Kaoru) 「Right~! (Desu yo ne~!)」

It’s obvious, right… Even if it were me, I will also never allow it.

 

I gave up and returned to my room.

For dinner, I ate grilled and simmered fish dishes at the restaurant that I had before taking the inn.

It’s okay If I can’t eat sashimi for today…… .

I slept together with Riette-chan with grief.

Yes, to prepare for the morning.

 

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

 

(Kaoru) 「I will go out for a walk」

Being embraced by Riette-chan……, Ugh! It’s heavy!

Early morning, I pulled out from Riette-chan’s hand and went out for a walk while still in sorrow.

No one talked to me or even worried about me being frustrated.

At best, the escorts who hide in secret are coming with me for now.

 

And my destination is already fixed.

Yes, it’s the market.

The fish market!

If they won’t lend me a kitchen, all you have to do is prepare it by yourself.

Both the ingredients and the kitchen!

 

And I finally arrived in the fish market!

Of course, it’s not only the merchants from nearby towns and villages who are buying stuffs from here, but ordinary customers could also buy stuffs in here normally.

It’s not because the shops are competing with each other, nor selling in the early morning only.

……if I may say, it’s full with street vendors kind of feeling

So they are fine with a stranger like me.

 

The shopkeepers are merchants or maybe a fisherman’s wives or daughters, I guess.

Anyhow, there are some who shout to attract customers, wait, if they do it all day long, they will have a sore throat and lost their voice… There are also some who don’t have a vigorous body and kept being silent… and so on.

Because the marine products were just obtained by the fishermen from this town, the freshness should be alright.

From the looks of it, there won’t be anyone who sells poisonous things without warning to an amateur girl.

Well, there is still a possibility that the poisonous ones are being sold.

Even in Earth, There are plenty of challengers who will likely eat pufferfishes, or something like 『I want to feel the stinging numbness from the poison.』, and such.

 

Looking at it, I knew…..

No, there were a lot of fish that are very similar to what I knew and some fishes that I saw for the first time.

Even if I said I saw it for the first time, it could also be from Earth too.

In the first place, I only had seen and remembered the ones from fish markets, supermarkets, aquariums, illustrated books, the television, and such.

There are also 『Fishermen’s fish』 which will be eaten by the fishermen and their families, so it won’t be sold in the market.

Despite the fish’s taste isn’t so bad at all, it won’t make any money.

It’s just that the appearance and popularity won’t sell for a good value.

 

Besides, when I went to Okinawa, blue fishes were being sold normally in the market.

Although it’s called blue fish, it doesn’t mean a literally blue fish.

In other words, mackerels, pacific sauries, sardines, etc.

Well, there are also 『blue fishes』 in Okinawa….

like parrotfish, and such.

(TL Note: Parrotfish)

That’s why, even an unfamiliar fish may be something that is usually eaten in foreign countries and fishermen’s towns on Earth, It’s just that I didn’t know about it.

But, well, there will be no 『challenger』 for today.

Let’s go with 『the guy who knows about fishes well enough』.

Umumu~, as expected there are no tunas and whales here.

Probably because there’s no ocean fishing yet.

Is there any possibility to catch tunas or whales even in the coastal waters Not that it would certainly be caught every day.

If there are tunas and whales in this world, there probably will be some around this area.

 

Thus, I bought the ingredients that I have selected appropriately, one after another, and put them in the big bag which I had already prepared.

I stuffed the ingredients into the bag to some extent while secretly putting them into the item box.

There shouldn’t be anyone who has been keeping an eye on my shopping for a long time and notice the amount of ingredients that I have bought which won’t fit normally inside the bag (except for a certain female knight).

Hmm, fish that looks like Inada, Hamachi, and Buri-...

Wait! It’s all the same!

(TL Note: All of those are Japanese amberjacks (” ´・ω・`) )

Oh, the names are all the same here No one wants to get ahead, huh Is it a million year-old fish

(TL Note: It’s a reference for Mannenhirashain (萬年平社員) which refers to an employee who indefinitely works without a promotion but changed into Mannenhiragyo (萬年平魚).

I don’t know how to phrase it better for this line.)

 

I also bought shellfish, seaweed and other things.

It can be used for miso soup and the feeling of chewing whelk is great, right~

(TL Note: Whelk)

Oh, they’re selling turtle’s legs too.

Even in this world they also sell that, huh….

No, of course it’s not a real turtle’s leg.

It’s a crustacean which doesn’t move from the rock surface in the bottom of the sea.

It seems to be a distant relative of barnacles…

(TL Note: Here you go.)

The appearance looks like a turtle’s leg and it’s delicious.

It’s a little troublesome to peel the skin, though.

All right, let’s buy it.

 

(Riette) 「Oneechan, that’s, disgusting……」

(TL Note: Should I change the name to Riette-chan)

Claimed Riette-chan, who was looking at the market’s scenery and rare fishes with sparkling eyes.

Well, it looks exactly like a turtle’s leg that had been cut, right…..

I wonder if Riette-chan ever seen a turtle…… .

 

My search for ingredients went well.

I also didn’t get involved with anything weird.

In the first place, there won’t be any gaps where yakuzas/mafias and thugs can enter the fishing villages and towns where there are a lot of rowdy people.

The relationship between the head of fisherman’s group and the strong people is also firmly established.

In addition, If the people who are working hard daily with their lives at stake saw their families or friends were in trouble, they won’t be silent.

There are also a lot of people from the source of revenue-….

no no! The valuable employees’ network.

In short, there are no kidnappers, nor red light districts in this town.

Yup, it’s a nice town.

 

After I had stocked plenty of fresh ingredients, I returned to the inn in high spirits.

Today, we ate normal fish dishes (cooked with heat) and enjoyed the sights of the town together.

I also need to confirm the level of ocean-related civilization around here such as the shipbuilding technology and navigational level.

Well, I planned to go along the coastal road from here on, so it’s not that I have to check out everything in this town.

Sightseeing the town’s properly and then go to another big city is good enough.

After all, this is just a small country town.

 

Alright, I will leave this town tomorrow and make sashimi along the way!!
