Chapter 152: Meal
Ch. 152 Meal
Since enough fish were caught, I start floating towards land. This is going to take a while, since I’ll be saying farewell to Nina, I might seriously just try crossing the ocean.
I would like to see how Nina will fare after leaving her in the port city if possible, preferably before I leave the desert. But I wonder if I’ll even have the opportunity. There will be quite the commotion if I were to go near the city. Then the city will become a ghost town instead.
I was able to send off the eight soldiers before without harming them too much, seeing as I could be regarded as a considerable threat to humans, I say I did rather well. I didn’t think they were particularly weak, after all, I’m sure they will be missed if I were to kill them. Maybe if I keep one-sidedly beating them they’ll leave me alone.
After arriving at the beach, I let Nina and the ball rabbit get off. Nina and the ball rabbit then layout some of the camels fur and place the fish on there.
In the meantime I dig a hole in the beach and scoop out some seawater by cupping it in my hands and carry it to the hole. Then I make the water evaporate by heating it up with my breath until only salt was left.
Salt will be useful in the future. Now to wrap the salt up in some fur to make it easier to carry. Collecting salt is difficult if I stray to far from the sea.
The quality of food varies depending on the presence or absence of salt. Actually, I also like Piperis. I guess it’s not something that could be found in the desert. It would be nice to have something similar…I wonder if it could only be found in that forest. Well it can’t be helped if I think about it.
I grill the fish with [[Scorching Breath]] and coat them with the salt I made earlier. It’s my first time grilling fish in this life when I think about it. I feel like I can eat it raw, but this time I decided to heat it up.
