Chapter 32

Let’s Cook!
In the end, Sheila had to ask Cody and Zechs to transport the prey she had killed.
When Zechs was summoned, he gave her the usual lecture about why she had hunted without thinking about the consequences. It was her way of thanking him for his hospitality, but she had caused him trouble.
While reflecting, Sheila had to move on to cooking immediately.
She had already done the prayer of gratitude and drained the blood of the prey, but she would like to handle it while it was still fresh.
Sheila borrowed cooking pots, vegetables, and seasonings from a woman in the cafeteria with whom she had become friendly in exchange for a share of the meat. She didn’t want to disturb her cooking lunch or dinner, so she didn’t bother her in the kitchen. She was already grateful for the loan of the cooking utensils.
Through Claushezade, she also received permission to cook in the garden. Everything was ready.
Sheila quickly plucked the feathers of the mountain birds and cut the meat into pieces. It took only a relatively short time for all three birds. The big boar, however, wasn’t so easy. The boar was too big, and it was quite hard work to cut it up. It was a good thing she borrowed a big meat cleaver, but by the time she was done, she was drenched in sweat.
The belly of the boar meat was full of fat.
It was delicious boiled or grilled, so she used a lot of it in the pot. Even if she cut it thickly, it won’t be a problem because it will soften if cooked for a long time, and she could get very good soup stock from the fat. The crunchy texture of the skin was also delicious. Although it wasn’t suitable for one-pot dishes at this time of the year, it was the most delicious way to cook it.
