Hard Work Will Never Betray Me - CH 124
‘…… Okay, it’s time to get ready for camp…….”
I agree. It’s a very dangerous in demon forest, and we need to do it while it’s still light.”
“As the leader of the group, I gave the order to set up camp, and Markus agreed. He is not very self-confident and is very cautious.”
Oscar came alone, didn’t he? Have you do, camp or something?
“? I can use the ‘seed fire ward,’ so I didn’t have much trouble.”
“Seed fire warding?”
Unfortunately, I’m not very good with attribute magic, so I’ve got the famous ones down, but I don’t know all the fire attribute spells.
“It’s a spell that scatters small seed fires around, and if there are monsters or intruders, they will all burn up at once. It’s B rank, a little hard, and has the disadvantage that it uses magic power all the time, so you don’t get much time off, but you can’t turn your back on i
“Heh. There’s some useful Magic in that. What about Markus?”
“I usually take a short nap on a tree or dig a hole in the ground. I couldn’t sleep very well, because if I did, I would die. ”
“You’re right. ……”
The two of them had a tough trip after all.
“What about Eberhard? You were with Lily and Iris, weren’t you? Taking turns sleeping?”
I”‘m curious too. I’d love to know how the first arrivals made it through this forest.”
“Well, I don’t think my strategy will be of much use to you, to be honest. It’s quite a feat of strength.”
With that said, I took out a simple steel campsite from my inventory. The two were completely shocked when they saw a silver-gray metallic luster dome suddenly appear in front of them that looked large enough to accommodate a hundred people.
“What’s …………?”
‘………… what’s this?’
‘…… so I told you. I have an inventory, so we can take precautions like this. Thanks to that, we get a good night’s sleep every night. We even have a bath.”
Is this what I mean when I say I can’t keep my mouth shut? they looks more stunned than surprised.
“I really envy you, …….”
“I feel …… some kind of disparity. ……”
“By the way, I only used the one I have when I came here, but Lily and Iris have the same one, so all the girl teams should be spending time with it on this exercise.”
“What?
The other two teams of boys were not so lucky.
Well, that’s the way camping is supposed to be. That’s the way it should be. It’ s just crazy.
“All right, then, let’s get started on the meal preparations. We have some herbs and edible plants from the march, and I think they would be good on bread with this sauce and some of the meat we got for lunch.”
“Your inventory really does produce anything and everything. Maybe you should be a merchant.”
“Eberhard would be successful in anything.”
“Well, if my family falls, maybe I’ll become a merchant.”
“No, unless he rebelled against the imperial family, the frontier count’s family will not fall.”
“Sometimes I think Eberhard forgets that he is a major nobleman.”
Well, the starting point of my personality is modern Japanese. In the first place, ordinary aristocrats don’t do savage things like becoming adventurers. Aristocrats who are in the military sometimes go on expeditions as soldiers, so they are probably more used to it than you might think.
While they were having such an idle conversation, the food was ready.
“I think it would be delicious if you bake it,” Oscar says.
Oscar said something like that. It is true that baked bread tastes good. And if it were sandwiched with meat and vegetables, it would be a must.
“Good idea, let’s bake it.”
‘We’re going to need a campfire anyway.”
“All right, then, I’ll do the cooking for you,
, “Well, I’ll do it myself,” and I wait for him.”
“Wait a minute.’
“What?”
I want to try something.
Up until now, I had always used a fire flint when I camped as an adventurer. However, there was always the possibility that I might lose my fire stone, and there was nothing better than being able to make a fire with just my own power. I am particularly unable to use the “seed fire,” a life magic that many people can use, due to my inability to use attribute magic.
“The thing you want to try is to make fire? …… Oh, well, you can’t use attribute magic, can you?”
“Yes, I know. So I just wanted to try something on an opportunity like this.”
“I’m not good with fire either, but I can at least use “seed fire”. . …… I’m curious to see what Eberhard will do.”
Oscar and Markus seem to be interested in my method of fire ignition. Well, what I’m about to try is probably something only I can do, and I don’t think I’m going to boring with it.
“First of all, you know I can use a unique magic called [Impact], right?”
“Yeah.”
“Yes, I do.”
“This time, I’d like to try igniting a fire using that [shock].”
‘…… how?’
Both of them look doubtful. Well, I’ve never actually tried it myself, so I don’t know if I’ll actually succeed.
I prepared a few dry looking sticks that I found lying around and shaved them thin like dried bonito flakes with a knife. Then I took some of them in my hand, and I wrapped the bonito shavings in the manner of a ‘convergent impact bullet’ and activated [the impact].
—- bob!
“Whoa!”
In an instant, the shavings are ignited and a spark is created as if a paper cigarette is burning.
“Transferring this to the rest of the shavings,…… whoosh, whoosh.”
The fire was easily transferred to the shavings, and a fire was created. I put in a few branches and watched for a while, and the fire spread to the branches and eventually stabilized.
“Okay, it’s done,”
The campfire burned with a crackling, bursting sound. If we put thicker branches around the fire, we would have a real bonfire that would last for several hours.
“What was that?”
“I thought Eberhard could only use the non-attribute?”
The two looked at me surprised, but I didn’t use any fire attribute magic. The actuality is, it’s a simple application of science.
:”Air has the property of getting hotter when it is compressed.”
“Compression makes it hotter?”
“Yes.”
Have they ever heard of a fire piston? It is an ignition tool used in outdoor activities such as camping and barbecues. When you put flammable materials such as sawdust or straw in a metal cylinder and push a metal rod into the cylinder at once, the straw burns due to the heat produced when the air is compressed. A similar principle is used in diesel engines. In a diesel engine, the heat of compression when the air in the cylinders is compressed ignites the atomized fuel, causing it to explode.
And that is what I applied in this case. Using the principle of “explosive compression,” in which the fuel is blown up evenly from all directions and the center is compressed by the shock wave, the air and the shavings inside were compressed by the [shock] spell. Thanks to this, the shavings were safely set on fire.
“Is that part of the aristocrat’s culture?”
“Ah, well, it’s not quite like that, but maybe there are some researchers who know about it.”
The fire pith was a tool used in Southeast Asia for a long time on earth. The origin of the fire piston is not so clear, so it may be that there may have been reincarnated people in ancient Southeast Asia with modern knowledge.
“Now that the fire is safely prepared, let’s bake some bread.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Let’s hope it turns out well.”
We put a large stone right next to the campfire, cleaned it up, and put the meat sandwiches on it. After a while, the smell of the meat started to stimulate our appetites.
“Can we get ready for this? Thank God for nature!
“Thank nature!”
As for the flavor, let’s just say that the combination of crispy bread, juicy meat, and herbs was fantastic. But why is it that food eaten outdoor tastes so good? It is truly a mystery.
