Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou!

The Sea is filled with dreams

But still, I cant just give up now.

After a few days, I started a new initiative on the beach.

It does not need to be all the way in the sea, but there no one watching me here, and I can eat seafood as I please.

Since there also a lot of salt in here.

What I try to do now is the application of original magic in earth magic.

Now, as I have a large amount of seawater as material that I can use as much as I like, I am conducting an experiment to make salt with magic.

It just that this magic technique was also written in the book that master left behind.

When adventurers run out of salt, soil, or a mass of rock; flora, fauna, and even monster corpses will do.

It contain a small amount of salt and in many cases it can be refined by magic.

Humans are odd ones, even with sufficient food, there some cases of losing appetite and dying just because it was not salty enough.

Salt is really important for human.

Back to the topic, I had succeeded in obtaining salt without a problem, much faster and in a larger amount with the magic trick written in book made by master.

Even if its not up to 99.9% sodium chloride, I can make a clear distinction between white, silky salt with salt that look a bit yellow and rock salt ones.

I mean, I can even make a living by selling salt.

While thinking of such a thing, I am not satisfied with just this.

I am planning in reviving those seasonings with this salt as material.

From miso first.

Let alone our territory, soybeans also a popular crop in this world.

Feed livestock, cook it together in soup, and you can eat it with wheat rice porridge as cereals.

Since the price is also cheaper, I managed to get one sackful worth from the people within the territory who cultivated it in the field near their residence.

The price is the rabbit`s fur and meat I captured by myself.

Now I can make miso from the soybeans and salt as material.

There is no miso in this world so I need to make it into perfection by myself, but luckily that magic exists which could be helpful.

There are also some veteran mages that are able to brew wine instantly with grape as material prepared by themselves.

The others like wheat as material for ale, sugar as material for rum, and also honey for mead.

This world knows the mechanism for carbohydrate changing into alcohol, there exists a mage that brewed alcohol with various material.

The process of brewing that normally takes long time, can be preformed instantly by magic.

If you honestly think that it quite absurd from such brewing sources to brew alcohol, then you are not wrong.

Why, because the taste of a professional wine cellar is after all the best, there some mages who sometimes makes alcohol putting professionals to shame, but this time it cant match the quantity.

They mostly self-made brewing alcohol for hobbies or to enjoy it with family.

That said, it was common for drinkable brewed alcohol to be done in such short time.

So it should be possible for miso to be brewed.

First is miso. And then progressing in fermenting tamari and finally brewing soy sauce with magic. My dreams will come true.

I began making miso at once.

***

HahahaI cant believe it was this hard

Before I finally completed miso and soy sauce, I recalled the amount of hardship in this one year.

It should have been easy to make it with magic.

I dont need that many, I just want it for my own share.

If I can return to the past, I would like to warn myself with such a remark.

I knew how to make miso from grandma in rural area who self-made it a long time ago.

I actually helped her several times.

In practice, it was unusual entrusting boiling the soybean into magic.

Otherwise, it was easy to convert it into boiled beans with magic.

And it was okay until mixing the following materials, but I failed in the following fermentation.

Materials will rot no matter how much magic you put into it.

In the past, the biology teacher in my high school days asked us while having a chat during class the difference between fermentation and rotten.

Everyone gave various answers but the correct answer is like this.

Fermentation and rotten is just the same phenomenon.

Fermentation is useful and spoilage does harm to humans.

Thus, I was wasting a lot of spoiled soybeans while exchanging soybeans with rabbits I hunted every day, and it reached to the point of being seen by strange looks.

Still, after thousands of failures, I had somehow succeeded in producing miso.

And repeated the same failure with soy sauce.

I mean, for success once in several times, no matter how difficult the magic for advanced level in master`s book is, and despite I can successfully develop various other original magic techniques.

I cant believe that I kept failing in producing miso and soy sauce.

Its just that for soy sauce, it was a kind of failure were there was no progress, just like tamari.

Since I still exchanged soybeans everyday, I was seen with strange looks.

Because soybeans were exchanged too much, the territory`s people stopped using soybeans as meals.

Instead, they might have noticed that they can eat meat everyday from exchanging rabbit`s and wild boars meat with me.

They may have questions on what I use it for, but I was pretty much the lords son.

I am not really exploiting them by equal exchange so I usually exchange depending on my mood.

I was lucky that my family didnt say anything.

The treatment is kind of awkward though.

But still, producing alcohol with magic is going smoothly.

And again with the territory`s people who cultivated the field near their house, guinea fowls that I hunted is exchanged for wheat, it was for wheat shochu and ale.

Besides that, is wild fruits as materials such as mountain grapes and wild strawberrys collected in the wilderness, since I have succeeded in producing alcohol like wine.

I can only sample it as I am still in a child`s body, but it was quite tasty so I created sturdy jars from earth magic for this, sealing the alcohol tightly in there then keeping it in the magic bag.

Soil is the best raw material for earthen-ware by magic like silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, removing water in the clay, shaping the jar form, and then baked with the boiler in high temperatures, the material can be changed for a later state.

The thought of baking it with fire magic appeared in my mind for an instant, but it was impossible to put out fire magic with high temperature for one week so I dismissed it immediately.

At first, its fragile and crumbles at once, severe water leaks from jar that just finished, wasting a lot of clay in the process. After a lot of trial and error, a suitable jar for the preservation of alcohol, miso and soy sauce has been completed.

Regard the beauty of my molded jars, it will not be sold due to my artistic sense is lacking.

In short, I just use it for preservation of the fermented foods that I made.

If its not leaking out and the quality does not deteriorate, I can put it in the magic bag.

By that reason, it feels like in this one year I put all my mind in manufacturing pot, miso and soy sauce.

In addition, I can purify salt with magic, suddenly discovered it on an island in the southern part, I tried to refine the sugar from sugar canes that grows in nature with magic.

Sugar seems to be grown in islands on the southern end regions and the southern sea of Lingaia continent

Of course, the Imperial city and northerns areas, exported it to the Urquhart holy empire as exports, but I have never seen even once in Baumeister knight territory.

By all means, since there is less production compared to the demand, the price is overwhelmingly higher than salt.

For our Baumeister family which is financially lacking, sugar is a luxury good that salt can be be bought dozens times the amounts of sugar.

The rest is honey and fruit that can be harvested in forest, its usually supplemented for the sweetness such as vines that when boiled in soup it can be slightly sweet like honey .

The talk could get longer, but anyway with this, I am able to make a boiled mackerels miso, spilling soy sauce on the top of fried turban shells.

In the river connected with sea, even despite being the southern region, fish that look like salmon are going upstream for some reason, I should be able to make soy sauce pickles with fried salmon with this, too.

But that was needed all the more if it was like this.

Indispensable staple food for the Japanese, the existence of rice.

I had the thought of cultivated it since this is the southern region but it have not been cultivated, at least in our territory.

However, it must be somewhere from checking it in the book, I found the description that it has been produced in other southern region.

When I know this fact, I had the thought that maybe my father was an idiot.

Its not like the water is not enough, rice could be cultivated which can be harvested more efficiently than wheat.

Im sure Ill have a hard time making my first rice field, but it would not arise trouble from repeated cultivation in case of rice field.

In any case, because of trouble in reclamation, I thought that I should make rice field.

Actually, the statements of being prodigal son is just empty words, as I also hardly help my family.

I had expect that they would not listen even if I make a proposal, if I cultivate it in the south, Id get it for myself.

I could buy it normally in the market but I need to create a teleport point outside the territory first for that to be possible.

That means, I should be able to move to that point which I made once.

My first target is the mansion of the Brihedar margrave in the southern largest merchant city, Breitburg.

Breitburg is the largest merchant city in the southern border region, despite struggling in recovering the damages from the predecessor`s big failure, the high ranker in the headquarters of Brihedar margrave territory wont be shaken with just that.

Nobles who have territory`s in the south, are definitely allowed to reside and establish their branch offices as a merchants, and a lot of people also come for sightseeing and shopping.

And above all, not only the adventurers who control the southern part frontier region, the southern headquarters of various guilds have been established.

The next target would be to move with teleport in Breitburg.

For buying rice, there plenty goods available for purchase within magic bag.

Master`s property or Brihedar margrave army`s munition resources, and there also many materials that had been obtained from wiping out a lot of monsters.

Besides, I also produced a large amount of fermentation food, salt and sugar from this one year.

Together with the preserved jar, which is the result of my desperate effort every day, jars that reached tens of thousands of pieces have been already stored in the magic bag.

The numbers feel like abnormally large, but this also served as training to increase my magic capacity.

Getting used to reducing the amount of magic consumed after all is more efficient, when trained using magic to the limit for the sake of rising magic capacity, work that can be completed gradually increased.

It would be okay with just attack magic, but fire off a fire or tornado magic in barrage is bad for the environment, even if it is a uninhabited plain. So I often use earth support magic in training to increase my magic capacity.

I need to travel through the mountain path tomorrow. Gotta go home and sleep earlier.

I cast teleport magic to return home faster.
