381 Bear-san Makes Pudding Using Big Eggs
[It’s done!] Ghazal
The maintenance was over and the knife was returned.
[Even though you fought against the wyvern and the big scorpion with it, it’s almost pristine. It seems that the Miss Bear’s handling is quite good.] Ghazal
It makes me happy because he seems to be complimenting me. Well, if I use it badly and cause the blade to bend or break, I’d feel bad for Ghazal-san who made the knife.
But weapons are also consumables. It can’t be helped if it breaks and becomes useless. But it will feel terrible if it breaks after a few battles.
[Speaking of which, you said you want the ore you got at that time to be examined, but did you go to the city of dwarves?] Ghazal
[There are so many things that happened so I haven’t been able to go yet.] Yuna
The Bearmonite is stored in the bear box.
Since then, I’ve been very busy. Going to Misa’s birthday party, going to the elven forest, attending school festival, going to the desert, going to the sea. I didn’t have time to go to the city of Dwarves. With that in mind, it’s too much work for a hikikomori like me.
But now I have the time, and if I go to the city of Dwarves, I want to go if I know more about the Bearmonite. But as the name suggests, Bermonite is definitely a tool item dedicated to me. Even though the dwarves are familiar with ores like it’s their second nature, I have a feeling that someone will say .
And when it comes to games, I simply solve mysteries and move on afterward. But since it’s not a game, I’m not really bothered by it if I don’t know anything about Bearmonite.
However, ever since I got it, I have a desire to analyze it. My gamer blood intensifies.
I casually take out the Bearmonite.
Are? Was it always in such color?
I remember it was a strange round ore. It has become pure white. I took it out once more, it’s still pure white.
It was definitely not in this color back then.
I checked it with my skills.
«Bearmonite, a mysterious ore.»
The name and description haven’t changed, but it seems that this is definitely Bearmonite.
[It looks different than before.] Ghazal
[Yeah, I’ve never taken it out of the item bag since then, but it’s the ore I got before.] Yuna
Ghazal-san picks up Bearmonite.
[Such a mysterious stone.] Ghazal
I’m not as surprised as Ghazal-san. Because it’s Bearmonite. No matter what happens, I’m not going to be surprised.
[Don’t you want to break it and check it.] Ghazal
[Isn’t breaking it supposed to be the last resort? Hey, there’s something that bothers me about this stone, so you can’t break it or shatter it] Yuna
Bearmonite is a rare ore. It’s more likely that I will never get another one. It’ll be a problem if it gets destroyed rendering it useless.
[That’s true. In that case, we may never know. Unless it’s master.] Ghazal
[Does your master know? (About Bearmonite)] Yuna
[He may know something about it because he travels around the world and seeing various ores. If he can’t, I don’t know anyone else who can.] Ghazal
Ghazal-san seems sure with that person, it may be good to meet him at once. Even if he doesn’t know about Bearmonite, if he’s traveling around the world, he might hear some interesting stories.
[If you’re going there, please say hello to master for me.] Ghazal
I thanked Ghazal-san and left the shop.
If I go home right now, a normal round trip should take 3 days, so I will kill time before returning to Crimonia.
Killing time means cleaning the bear house. When I returned to the royal capital’s Bear House, I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear in cub form. Then, I gave Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear a rag each and asked them to clean the floor.
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear rolls around while holding a rag to wipe the floor.
I’ll leave the floor cleaning to Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, so I’ll go collect the futons. Then, using the bear gate, I’ll hang it outside the bear house in the sacred tree of the elf village. At the sacred tree, no one can see it. Only Ruimin and the others who can enter the barrier can come to the sacred tree.
I also collected the ones we used in Mereera, the futons I used for my traveling, and dry them here. I have a bear box, so it’s easy to collect those. If I didn’t have a bear box, I would have to carry it one by one. So it’s really convenient.
The elf village has good weather all year long and it’s always a good day to wash. I collected the laundry from all bear houses, washed it, and hung it to dry.
After washing and cleaning, I took Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to the bottom of the sacred tree. Then, when I return Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to their original size, I took a nap on top of them instead of a bed.
Then, in the evening, I woke up and hurriedly gathered all of my futons and laundries.
After adjusting the number of days appropriately and returning to Crimonia, I asked the members of the store group to gather at the store during the next holiday. From the morning, six members of the shop group will join Fina and Shuri’s children’s group.
[Yuna-oneesan. What do you want to do now that everyone is here?] Fina
[I got a rare egg, so let’s make a pudding together.] Yuna
[A rare egg?] Fina
[Jajaaan!] Yuna
I took out a big egg from the bear box along with my voice.
[…………]
[…………]
[…………]
Are? The reaction of the children is weak.
[Etto, maybe big eggs aren’t that rare?] Yuna
But ordinary eggs were rare, so that’s not the case, right?
[Is this really an egg?]
[Well, that’s got to be a lie. There’s no such big egg.]
[I’m pretty sure that it’s from a big kokekko.]
[You don’t know. It’s a dragon’s egg. It’s a dragon’s egg because the dragon is big.]
[I’ve never seen a dragon.]
Apparently, they didn’t understand the big egg, so they were having trouble reacting to it.
The children looked at the huge spot-billed duck-sized egg and said various things like, . Wait, are there vicious dragons here like in the game?
[Yuna-oneesan. Is this really an egg?] Fina
[It’s so big.] Shuri
Fina and Shuri also look at the mysteriously-huge spot-billed duck-sized egg and poke it with their fingers.
[It’s neither a dragon nor a big kokekko egg. But a big bird’s egg swimming in a lake.] Yuna
[Big bird?] Fina
[Hmm, about this much?] Yuna
I opened my hands and express the size of the bird.
[Is there such a big bird?]
[Then, if you warm this egg, will a big bird hatch from it?]
[Etto, isn’t it impossible because the parent bird is not here? And also I think it’s impossible to grow it unless there is big water like a lake.] Yuna
[May I touch Yuna-oneechan?]
[Me too!]
[It’s okay, but be careful because it’s heavy.] Yuna
Children anxiously touched and carried the egg.
[It’s heavy and big.]
[It’s really heavy.]
[I’m next!]
I’m a bit worried about them dropping the eggs that the children are holding in their small hands.
[You’ll have your turn. Settle down, stop running. If the egg breaks, it’ll be terrible so be careful.] Yuna
Well, there are 8 people including Fina and Shuri. There are two eggs, so there isn’t much competition. The egg returns safely.
[And so, I’ll make pudding with this egg, so can everyone help me?] Yuna
[Yea!]
[I’ll help!]
[But how will you break the egg? It’s too hard.] Fina
When breaking an ostrich egg, I’ve seen it hit with a hard object such as a hammer to make a hole and take out the contents. Therefore, I took out the hammer that I prepared in advance from the bear box.
[I’ll use this!] Yuna
[You’ll break it with a hammer?] Fina
[I’ll only make a hole, but yeah, that’s correct. I’m not really familiar with it, so I don’t know if there’s another way to do it.] Yuna
There may be a different way in this world, but I don’t know, so I’ll make a hole with this hammer.
The mouth of the bear puppet is biting the hammer. And then I tap it lightly, but it doesn’t break. When I hit it with a little more force, the egg cracked.
[It’s cracked?] Fina
[A little more!] Yuna
I tapped it again to open a hole.
[Bring a bowl for the eggs.] Yuna
[Okay.]
When I received the bowls, I removed the contents of the egg from the hole. However, I couldn’t take it out well, and the yolk was in a messy state.
[Ah, the yolk broke.] Yuna
The children were disappointed because the yolk got broke.
Hmmm, it seems that it was a mistake to make the hole smaller in order to show the eggshells to other children later.
This time, I made the hole bigger and take out the yolk in a clean state, the children cheered.
[So big!]
[This could become a big bird.]
[Bird, I wanted to see it.]
I want to show it to them, but I can’t take it here, so it’s impossible. The big bird can be brought in through the bear gate, but they cannot be raised over here, so they are only going to be used as food. I also eat kokekko, so there is no problem. Somehow it feels like it’s going to be something else.
[Alright, I’m going to make pudding. I’ll begin stirring it.] Yuna
When I crushed the yolk, the words and come out.
[Help me out here. Don’t forget to prepare the tools and cups.] Yuna
We split into two groups and started making pudding with the huge spot-billed duck-sized eggs.
I’ve heard that ostrich eggs are about 20 times larger than chicken eggs. Since one normal-sized egg can make two puddings, the two large eggs here can probably make 80.
It’s just a rough calculation. However, even if it increases or decreases a little, the amount it can make satisfies the number to be distributed to the children of the orphanage and the people close to me.
And with the cooperation of everyone, the pudding using huge spot-billed duck-sized eggs was completed. I tried tasting it, but it was a flavor-rich pudding with a different taste from the ones made from kokekko eggs.
The finished pudding had huge spot-billed duck-sized eggshells together when I distributed the pudding. everyone was surprised by the taste of the pudding, but even more so, they were surprised by the size of the eggshells.
Next time, I’ll go to Karina along with kokekko.
Author’s Note:
That’s why Yuna is likely to go to the city of Dwarves. And she’s making pudding with big eggs.
