Chương 66: 66. Manga Meat
"Hey, Kazuma, Kazuma." Aqua called.
"Yes, it's Kazuma."
"It seems that this goddess has been looked down upon." Aqua looked annoyed.
"Isn't that normal? It's you anyway."
"What do you mean? He must be a Japanese person who was sent to this world by flat-chested Eris!!" Aqua believed that Izumi was a person from the same world as Kazuma.
"Why did you think so?" Kazuma asked.
"My gut tells me so. Let's follow them!" Aqua stood up from her seat to prepare to chase after Izumi and her party.
"Stupid, don't try to trouble other people again, you useless goddess!" Kazuma grabbed her clothes to prevent her from leaving.
"But, but, he must be Eris' follower, I bet Eris is using him to make fun of me just like he did a while ago." She just accused Eris because Aqua often bullied her. So Aqua thought Eris must have wanted revenge.
"Oi oi, don't follow them! I'm sure they've taken on a difficult quest. Our party is too weak!!!!" Kazuma began to worry about what this goddess wanted to say.
"Ufufufu, who do you think I am, Kazuma? Goddess, a goddess you know. Anything like a monster is easy peasy lemon squeezy."
"Ah, here comes the useless goddess mode raising the flag." Kazuma just responded with a straight face while speaking in his mind.
Izumi, Kuroneko, and Luffy leave town to kill Griffon and Manticore to complete a quest from the guild. The distance from town seems to be about a day's walk.
They only walked about 10 minutes from Axel town, but Izumi was annoyed with Luffy who kept forcing him to cook immediately due to his stomach that was already protesting.
Izumi grabbed Luffy's face in annoyance.
"I know, I know! But there aren't any wild beasts nearby, so we can't cook anything!"
Kuroneko glanced at Izumi.
"But, Miyamura. Didn't you bring some food before coming to this world?" She said.
Then, Izumi nodded in response while pointing at Luffy.
"I brought. But you think instant food will be enough for him?"
"Your words are true."
Izumi told Luffy to eat his reserve meat while waiting for Izumi to spot a wild animal to be used as a menu for cooking.
It was until an hour later that a wild boar was in Izumi's sight. Deftly, he pulled out a dagger and killed it instantly without waiting for the boar to run away or strike back.
Izumi immediately looked for a place close to the river while dragging the carcass of the wild boar.
Then, Izumi took out the utensils and spices for cooking from his storage space. After that, he started skinning the wild boar he had hunted.
Kuroneko, who saw how skilled Izumi was, couldn't help but ask.
"You seem to have gotten used to it, Miyamura."
"Hmmm? You mean, this?" Izumi pointed at how he skinned the boar with his dagger. He continued. "I was taught to cook since I was little. Of course, this kind of thing is normal for me."
"Huh?" Kuroneko was confused. Kuroneko only knew that Izumi had a cake shop, of course, he could make his own cakes. But she didn't remember that Izumi had been taught to cook since childhood.
Seeing Kuroneko's expression, Izumi clarified.
"Didn't I tell you? My mother is a graduate of Tootsuki academy."
"Haaah?? Wait, wait, wait! How??" Shocked, Kuroneko wanted Izumi to explain.
However, that confused Izumi instead.
"What do you mean?"
"You mentioned "Tootsuki", right? I didn't mishear, did I?"
Only then did Izumi understand after hearing what Kuroneko said.
"Oh. I've already talked about it in the chat group, you know. You don't know?"
"Seriously?" Kuroneko felt a little disbelieving because she had never read about it in the chat. But, she started to think that there was one day when she didn't have time to open the chat group. Maybe at that time, Izumi explained how his world was. She only thought that Izumi's world wasn't much different from the story in the manga, however, that didn't seem to be the case.
Then, Izumi told Kuroneko that his world was a combination of different anime series. He also thought that Kuroneko's world was the same.
Therefore, Kuroneko's world may be also a combination of different anime series.
"Izumi!! Not yet?"
Izumi and Kuroneko heard Luffy's complaint. Izumi just chuckled in response to him.
After he finished skinning, Izumi sliced the meat into 2 different sizes. One of these sizes was cut lengthwise. He also did not forget to chop the necessary vegetables, and mushrooms, and extract orange juice.
Then, Izumi took out some burdock roots from the storage space he had bought before going on a mission. He turned to Kuroneko.
"Help me peel these roots, then soak them in vinegar to remove the astringency! After that, soak it again in clean water."
Kuroneko was curious enough about what Izumi wanted to make that made her ask.
"What are you really trying to do?"
"Hehe, something delicious! You'll find out later. By the way, when I'm done, help me arrange the long pieces of meat onto the empty plates!"
Kuroneko followed Izumi's request because it seemed that he wanted to make delicious dishes.
Izumi prepares honey, soy sauce, mirin, orange juice, garlic, onion, ginger, and a little milk. Then, he mixed all the spices to make the sauce.
Izumi prepared several plates, spread the sauce on each plate, then put the slices of meat on top of it, then arranged the meat with a slight overlap. He put sauce on it after arranging the meat.
While waiting for the spices to seep into the meat, Izumi prepared the minced meat, added potato powder, and the others to make a pate. Then he sprinkled the cayenne pepper powder and pepper and mixed it well.
Izumi took out a mini stove that is usually used for camping. He prepared a frying pan, then fried the pieces of vegetables and mushrooms that he had prepared beforehand. After being fried and slightly chilled, Izumi mixed it with the minced meat, potato powder, and others.
Izumi took the plate where the meat pieces had been arranged by Kuroneko on the plate. Izumi put enough pate on top, along with the cleaned burdock root. He rolled it up to make a familiar shape.
When realizing what Izumi wanted to make, Kuroneko exclaimed.
"Manga meat!!! Seriously???"
Izumi looked at her and smiled in response.
What Izumi made was primitive-shaped meat that often appeared in manga or anime. And this time, he didn't just make one serving.
After that, Izumi controlled his Devil Fruit ability. He has trained his Devil Fruit ability quite well. And surprisingly, he was able to lower the air temperature. But somehow, if the wind he controlled was hit by fire, it would make the fire grow bigger and actually disable his elemental intangibility.
Izumi used his Devil Fruit ability to cool the temperature of some of his raw dishes so that the pieces of meat stick to the pate.
After the meat and pate were glued together, he rolled it again into the meat pieces that had been mixed with the sauce.
After each manga meat has been shaped like in the manga. Izumi started to cook them.
Only then did Kuroneko comment.
"I'm actually quite surprised, why do you bring so many cooking utensils like this?"
"I wanted to cook delicious food while adventuring. And when it comes to fantasy worlds. Of course, you shouldn't miss eating meat with a similar shape in the anime, isn't that quite interesting?" Izumi replied.
While waiting for the meat to cook, Izumi cooked the sauce in the pot by giving it something for the finishing touch.
20 minutes later, the dishes are cooked. Too bad, Izumi can only cook 4 in 20 minutes. Luffy will definitely be begging for meat again.
Luffy who was impatient immediately extended his hand to grab the meat. Too bad Izumi was already prepared to parry it.
Izumi put all the manga meat on a plate, then doused it with the sauce that was cooked earlier.
"Done."
Izumi gave two servings to Luffy and one to Kuroneko while cooking a few more servings because 2 portions couldn't be enough for him.
Izumi tried a bite to taste his cooking.
Izumi could feel a shock in his mouth. He himself did not expect the food to be quite delicious.
"Uwah, the outside is so crunchy, and the inside is moist."
He turned to Kuroneko and Luffy who also felt the same way. But he already saw Luffy who finished two servings as if he wasn't chewing but swallowing.
