Food 1st Rate Fish Ingredient.
Watching the lively and fluttering fishes, Weed’s mouth was filled with a heartwarming smile. They couldn’t be compared to rare Blacksmith or Sewing items, but still, in their own way, the fish he caught were valuable. In the case of the Gold Fish which permanently raised stamina by 1, its value was indescribable.
The first fish Weed pulled out he gutted and stored separately. The one advantage of the North was that valuable food did not spoil because of the low temperature. Since it had a very long shelf life, it was possible for him to collect food to his limits.
From time to time, he also gathered dry branches separately for lighting a fire. Fire was needed not only for cooking, but also for melting snow to make water. Snow was everywhere so he filled the canteen with only a little bit of water and instead put the branches in his bag. Fishing learned for survival skills!
Eating too little food for a long time, he learned the secret of survival. Weeds that survived anywhere, Weed’s appreciation of such life was evident.
While Weed was busy procuring food through fishing, Seoyoon and Alveron checked for safety and slowly approached.
“........”
Seoyoon and Alveron now had considerable interest in fishing. They slowly put the fishing rods into the cold water and before long the caught fish emerged toward their forearms. The act was quite marvelous, but the fish were also considerably beautiful.
Priests were generally opposed to death, but Alveron was a follower of the Goddess Freya that believed in beauty and abundance! Like delicious and pretty things. Alveron swallowed his saliva as he watched the fish.
Seoyoon stared down at the flapping fish with curious eyes. Seafood was quite expensive in Versailles Continent. It was not that she didn’t have money, but she was not deliberately picky with the food she ate. She had never experienced eating fish in Royal Road.
Weed asked while wiping the pot with white snow.
“If you’re hungry, I can fix you something to eat?”
“........”
Seoyoon thought for a moment and then nodded. She wasn’t that hungry, but she had expectations on what kind of dish he would make.
“Then wait for a bit. It’ll take some time.”
Weed started a fire with the branches he collected in advance. Cooking over the river, to prepare for the off chance of unknown danger, capable of blocking heat, he took off the cape he was wearing and laid it on the ground.
Vampire Cape!
Although it did not have very good stats, it had the strong attribute of blocking fire so he used it as a mat underneath the fire. The fire quickly became large. Weed hung a big pot over the fire and poured in plenty of oil.
“........?”
To cook fish dishes, would you take out a pot and use it that way, it was incomprehensible. Instead of boiling several ingredients to make fish stew, he filled it to the brink with oil.
While increasing the temperature of the oil in the pot, Weed eagerly prepared the newly caught fresh pond smelt into sashimi. He extracted the meat from the bone and after covering the meat with tempura powder, he placed them in the pot.
Jigeul jigeul jigeul!
The fish meat fried in oil turned yellow.
‘What kind of dish is that?’
Seoyoon tilted her head.
The food Weed wanted to make was none other than fish tempura. Fish tempura was not common. Separating the meat into thin layers and then frying. All that remained was the crunch and deliciousness. What was burdensome was you had to reduce the tempura part as much as possible.
“Now, let’s eat.”
Cooking was completed quickly. Lightly frying thin meat so not much time was needed. Seoyoon carefully put the fish tempura into his mouth.
‘Delicious. Really good.’
The flavor of the light, crispy fried fish harmonized exquisitely. The freshness was best when eating shortly after the fish is caught. In addition, there was the atmosphere since it was outside where the cold wind blew.
Seoyoon usually hated fried stuff. But this time, she ate as many as 8 until her stomach was satisfied.
“……..”
Seoyoon blushed.
‘What did I just do?’
It was so delicious that she ate without thinking.
Seoyoon stealthily glanced at Weed. But he did not say anything.
‘Lucky.’
Weed in his heart smiled with satisfaction.
‘She enjoyed eating a bunch.’
Now he felt more comfortable going around Seoyoon in the future. As long as he cooks for her, she wouldn’t attack or kill him.
Body and equipment equaling property, Weed was fearful of the bloody presence of a killer. But there was a bonus. Seoyoon would now aggressively do battle with monsters. If she knows the taste of a monster that appears, she will hunt even more thoroughly.
Feed them well. Handle them well.
Suddenly, Seoyoon was being treated similar to the Geomchis.
