Chapter 338: 338 Bear-san Holds Ice Cream Tasting Party.


338 Bear-san Holds Ice Cream Tasting Party.


I made a lot of ice cream yesterday. I’m going to have Fina and Shuri come to my house today as well, I plan to sample what we couldn’t do yesterday.


And we’re going to choose the most delicious ice cream from among the different batches and ma.s.s-produce it after we’re done tasting.


However, there is a figure of Tirumina-san in front of me.


[Etto, what’s going on?] Yuna


[I heard that Yuna-chan made another weird food.] Tirumina


What’s weird about it?


I just made ice cream.


[Please don’t start something new while we’re this busy.] Tirumina


Tirumina-san begged me with a serious expression. Apparently, Tirumina-san is making a mistake.


[Of course not. I’m not trying to make another shop. I just wanted to make some cold sweets and eat them when we go to the beach.] Yuna


[Really?] Tirumina


She’s looking at me with a lot of doubt.


You don’t trust me, do you?


[It’s true, That’s why I’m not bothering Tirumina-san.] Yuna


…… But I whispered that in my heart.


[Well, that’s fine. Fina asked me to add a lot of eggs, so I was wondering what was going on.] Tirumina


Yesterday, I asked Fina to request Tirumina-san for more eggs. It seems that it surprised Tirumina-san so much.


Then, Tirumina-san seems to have thought that I was doing something. What kind of person do you take me for? I don’t always bring that much trouble.


……Only once in a while.


[So, what did you made?] Tirumina


[I think you’ve heard it from Fina, but it’s a cold candy. If Tirumina-san also has time, please try it and let us know what you think.] Yuna


[Oh, can I eat it too?] Tirumina


[I still have the ice cream that we tasted yesterday, so can you give me your opinion on all the tastings? Of course the delicious ones and the bad-tasting ones. If it’s too sweet, or if it’s better to make it a little sweeter. Please give us a few comments about the taste. Shuri made her ice cream too sweet so it has a weak evaluation.] Yuna


[All right, I understand.] Tirumina


Shuri whispers in a small voice, .


Tirumina-san puts her hand on Shuri’s head.


[You have to moderate the sweetness.] Tirumina


And so, the tasting party including Tirumina-san started like that.


I took the ice cream out of the freezer, divide it into small pieces, and put it in bowls.


[This is the cold candy that Fina and Shuri were talking about?] Tirumina


[Yes, it’s called ice cream.] Yuna


Tirumina-san scoops the ice cream with a spoon and carries it to her mouth. Both Fina and Shuri did the same and carried it to their mouths.


[Oh, it’s delicious.] Tirumina


[Yes, it’s delicious.] Fina


[Yuna-oneechan. I want to eat more.] Shuri


Some of the ice creams that I made yesterday had frozen and turned into popsicles. But it’s delicious. Well, I didn’t put anything that I couldn’t eat, so basically, everything is delicious.


But as expected. Listening to everyone’s words and looking at their facial expressions, the soft ice cream seems to be highly evaluated than the hard popsicle. It seems that it had a good texture that melts in your mouth. The popsicle wasn’t bad either, but the rating was a bit lower than that of ice cream.


[The tastes can be too light or too sweet, but they are all delicious.] Tirumina


[Shuri made the sweet one. The lighter ones must be studied next time.] Yuna


Since there is no time today, the ice cream with a low rating will be put on hold. I want to make various flavors if possible.


So the ice cream that was highly evaluated by the tasting party was selected. This will be the ice cream that we will take on the trip


[Then you’ll need a lot of eggs.] Tirumina


[I still have some, but considering the amount that I’m making, I think it will be insufficient, so please give me more.] Yuna


The Bear Box contains a lot of eggs. But I used it a lot in practice yesterday and I plan to use it for today as well. No matter how many eggs there are it won’t be enough.


And when I personally use it, I’ll be in trouble if I have no stock.


[I understand. I will bring the excess eggs to you.] Tirumina


It’s supposed to be wholesaled cheaply to the commercial guild when we go on the trip.


But basically, the excess eggs would be sent to the stores and other places to make Morin-san’s new bread and Elena-san’s new cake.


Even so, if there’s still more, I will pick it up.


[Then I’m going to the orphanage for a bit.] Tirumina


Tirumina-san left Fina and Shuri and went to the orphanage. She’s letting Fina and Shuri help me make ice cream.


I asked Fina while we’re making ice cream.


[Fina I want to ask you something.] Yuna


[Yes, what is it?] Fina


When Fina replied, she turned to me and it looks like there was some cream on her nose.


Both sisters are exactly the same.


[Does Fina know the monster Scorpion?] Yuna


[Scorpion?] Fina


[Yeah, maybe I might ask you to dismantle it.] Yuna


If she can’t do it, I’ll sell it to Sanya-san, at the adventurer’s guild in the royal capital. Selling it in Crimonia will cause big chaos. In the case of the royal capital, it shouldn’t be that rare and if I ask Sanya-san, my existence will be hidden.


[I’ve seen Scorpion in the Monster Encyclopedia in the Adventurer’s Guild, but I don’t know the details.] Fina


[Then that means you’ve never dismantled one before.] Yuna


[Yes, I’m sorry,] Fina


She looked down and got depressed.


[No, you don’t have to apologize. Fina isn’t bad.] Yuna


I comfort Fina who got depressed. There is nothing wrong with Fina. The Scorpion itself is a rare monster in this city. It’s understandable if she has no experience of dismantling it.


[But hearing you talk about the Scorpion’s dismantling, did you defeated a Scorpion?] Fina


[Yup. While I was working in the royal capital, I happened to come across some Scorpions and beat it. I was wondering what to do with it. For the time being, I thought you could dismantle it, so I asked you if can do it.] Yuna


The meat can be eaten, so I can give it to Anzu’s shop and the orphanage.


I can sell the sh.e.l.ls in the royal capital when I have time.


[If that’s the case, Dad may know. My Dad used to say that he was an adventurer and went to many places. I’m sure he knows how to dismantle a Scorpion.] Fina


I wonder if Gentz-san knows how to do it? But the dismantling of the black viper was led by him.


[Do you want to ask Dad?] Fina


[Yeah. Well then, when we’re done making ice cream, why don’t we go and ask him for it?] Yuna


[Yes!] Fina


I used a handkerchief to wipe off the cream on Fina’s nose, which had been bothering me.


After a while, Tirumina-san brought me the eggs, then Tirumina-san decided to partic.i.p.ate in making ice cream. I was worried about her work, but she said it’s okay today, so I thank them for helping me.


[So, you can make it by putting it in a mold like this?] Tirumina


[Yes just pour it in.] Yuna


[It looks like we can make it into a bear-shaped too.] Tirumina


[Why are you talking about bears?] Yuna


[No, I wonder if we could make Bear-Shaped Ice Cream and sell it in the store.] Tirumina


[Didn’t you said this morning that I should stop doing such troublesome things?] Yuna


[Well, that’s one thing. But as a person who takes care of the accounting for both shops, I should think about the sales.] Tirumina


Tirumina-san is that kind of person after all.


But still, I’m leaving the money to Tirumina-san. Did that have an effect on her?


For the time being, the talks about the ice cream in the shop were put on hold and the ice cream that we are bringing to the sea was made in large quant.i.ties by four people.


After making some more ice cream, I went to the Adventurer’s Guild with Fina.


Shuri was tired of making ice cream and she was sleepy, so she went home with Tirumina-san. After all, she’s still seven years old. Working for a whole day will make her tired.


When we arrive at the Adventurers Guild, we headed straight to the dismantling workshop. Where adventurers manage the monsters they’ve defeated.


[Excuse me.] Yuna


When I searched for Gentz-san, I saw him talking to the Guildmaster at the wall of his room.


[He seems to be caught up with something.] Yuna


[Yes, he seems to be in the middle of his work.] Fina


Since we watched until their conversation ended, the two of them noticed us.


[Fina and Yuna? What are you doing here?] Gentz


Fina and I went to Gentz-san.


[There’s something I wanted to ask you Gentz-san.] Yuna


[About what?] Gentz


I glanced at the Guildmaster. I want to avoid being asked about the scorpion if I can.


[What? You looked very annoyed when I’m here.] GM


Yes, it’s annoying. I want to say it out loud, but I cannot say it in front of the person in question.


[Not really. Aren’t you going back to your work?] Yuna


[My intuition says you brought something troublesome.] GM


[I didn’t bring any trouble. I’m just going to talk to Gentz-san.] Yuna


[Then you can talk to me as well.] GM


[…………]


There was a long silence.


[What, if you’re not going to talk, then I’ll get back to work.] Gentz


Gentz-san was caught between me and the Guildmaster and tried to escape from this place, he couldn’t stand it.


I took advantage of Gentz-san’s action.


[Yeah. Shall we do it after work? Fina is fine with it, right?] Yuna


[Yeah I’m fine with it.] Fina


Fina looked at me and the Guildmaster, then she answered.


[Hey now, if there is no problem, then tell me.] GM


I gave up, then let out a big exhale.


Well, I’m sure it wouldn’t be a big deal if I don’t mention the boss Scorpion.


[Gentz-san, can you dismantle Scorpion?] Yuna


[Scorpion? Well yeah, I can do it because I have done it before, but do you have it?] Gentz


[Yeah, but when I asked Fina to dismantle it, she told me that she hadn’t done it before, so I’m here to ask Gentz-san.] Yuna


[Well, it’s a monster that’s not from around here. So it can’t be helped that Fina has never dismantled it.] Gentz


So it’s a monster that can only be found in the desert.


[So it’s just a dismantling of Scorpion. I thought it would be more difficult.] GM


Said by the Guildmaster, who was listening to us. But that’s just what the Guildmaster’s own beliefs. I’m not the bad one here.


[So did you come to Genz to dismantle the Scorpion?] GM


[Fina is studying dismantling. That’s why I thought it would be good learning for Fina.] Yuna


[If that’s the case, do it in the guild. Some of the other staff members have never dismantled it before. It should make a good lesson.] GM


[But if you put out a Scorpion in this town, wouldn’t it cause a big ruckus?] Yuna


[Well, it might get a little noisy, but it’s fine if we handle it in the guild. Gentz is fine with it as well.] GM


[As long as his daughter Fina could partic.i.p.ate as well.] Yuna


[That’s right. So how many do you have Yuna? Is it in the Bear’s Item Bag?] GM


Can I say the truth?


Just how many people will scream, I wonder?


By the way, there are 100 Scorpions. It’s not a big deal if you think of those as 100 goblins.


[Did you say you have 10? I’ll buy them all.] GM


It’s 10 times more than that. Moreover, I also have the boss one.


Well, if Guild master thinks so, then I’ll make a deal.


[As Guild master said there are about 10 of them.] Yuna


[That’s what I thought. It’s hard to come by, but depending on the processing, the sh.e.l.l will become a small armor, so the commercial guild will be pleased.] GM


The sh.e.l.l of the boss-type was hard, but the normal Scorpion didn’t feel that hard. But will the strength become stronger depending on the process?


Is it boiled?


An image of a pot with crabs and shrimps comes to my mind. It looks very tasty.


If it gets cold, you can use a pot to heat it up. If you go to the Elf Village, there are mushrooms, so a mushroom pot might be a good choice.


Now, the summer pot that I’m planing looks delicious.


[Is the meat delicious?] Yuna


[Oh, the meat is delicious!] GM


[Then I’ll take the meat, is that okay?] Yuna


[How about half?] GM


Half huh? Well, all I need to do is have it dismantled whenever I want it.


[Yeah, sure.] Yuna


[It’s a deal then. So when will you hand it over? You don’t want anyone to know that you were the one who brought it, right? Though I don’t understand why.] GM


[Yes, it would be nice if the guild keeps it confidential.] Yuna


[Well, there are some guys who would lightly speak about it. What about in the early morning tomorrow? There are few people in the early morning.] GM


The guild is operating 24 hours a day. But that doesn’t mean there are many guild staff. There are only a few people just in case of an emergency. So there is no guild staff until morning.


The only problem is that I have to get up early.


I have no choice but to have Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear wake me up.


I accepted and promised to come early tomorrow morning.
