Weed Reincarnation ~ Carefully Raised in the Elf Village ~ - CH 77
Chapter 77-: How is the field?
(TL By GUST)
● ○ ●
Integrated with the outcomes of hunting by the Elves, Werewolves, and Go-kun, we were able to obtain about 200 magic stones plus about 100 monster corpses in one day.
Approximately 600 magic stones in 3 days.
Not all of them exceed the Wyvern class, but if you hunt for a while, you will be able to secure enough magic stones for making magic bags for export, including stockpiles.
Dwarves can’t make as many as they want in a day, but it’s said that the limit is about 3 per day for processing the leather of the bag, sewing, manufacturing the metal fittings, and most importantly, engraving the runes.
Even if you make it to the limit every day, it will be calculated that there are about 100 magic stones.
And even the corpses of the demons obtained as a by-product were so large that the berserkers carrying them became busy, and the amount was enough to cover the increase in food production.
The vast fields are also managed by the spirit Gangreli, so there should be no problem.
“No problem”
“What?”
Even if we say that we are entrusted with the management of the fields, the crops we are currently producing are diverse and the amount is enormous. The current situation is that many elves and werewolves are helping to produce food, as it is not possible to do everything from production to harvesting and processing with Gangreli alone.
You should check every corner for any oversights or problems.
By the way, the dwarves are devoted to metal processing and manufacturing, so they are not involved in food production or processing.
No, there was an enthusiastic request to help sake brewing, but there is a fear that if you help them, it will disappear from the end of the brewing. For that reason, he rejected it with a determined determination.
Well, anyway, today I’m going to inspect if there are any problems with the food processing that is being done in the fields and the old elf village.
“-So, Sefie, I’m going to tour the fields today!”
“I don’t know, but it’s clever!”
I decided to go out of the Hidden Village with Sefie, who salutes me.
● ○ ●
There was a beautiful blue sky in the early morning sky.
It is an idyllic landscape where the gentle breeze blows through and the golden wheat fields sway the ears even though it is a place called Makyo.
Originally it is a land that can not be opened up such as fields, but it is possible because it is a land where monsters can not step on due to the illusion barrier that I am constantly developing and the repellent barrier of Sephi that has finally begun to exert its effect recently. That’s a thing.
However, unlike the place I used to live, Sefie now lives in the labyrinth, a hidden village of dwarves. Although I spend most of my time outside during the day, the way the repellent barrier penetrates is inferior to the previous village.
Even so, it seems that the stone is a high elf, and it seems that it has already begun to exert a sufficient effect, and the signs of monsters have moved away from the surrounding land.
For that reason, if you look over the fields, you will not feel any danger to yourself, and there are people who are calmly engaged in farm work.
Werewolves cut the wheat, which was harvested with skill, plant magic, and a large amount of nutrients, with a dwarven sickle.
Even one wheat field is quite a vast area. Moreover, since the breeding cycle is not left to nature, the harvesting work alone is busy and requires a lot of manpower.
Even those who are not good at hunting and fighting, werewolves are basically excellent in physical strength and strength. They worked actively, mainly for women and children who were non-combatants.
“Everyone! Good luck!”
Sefie cheers loudly to those who have noticed us or have stopped their hands for a while and raised their faces.
“The wheat field doesn’t seem to be a problem”
“Yes, everyone is working hard.”
After observing for a while and saying that there seemed to be no problem, Maple nodded beside him.
Maple’s role is basically to take care of Sephi. Maple is in the place where Sephi is-that’s why I accompanied him to today’s inspection.
“Is rice okay?”
Then we head to the plot where we are growing rice.
Originally, rice is a plant that grows in wetlands and should be cultivated in paddy fields, but my skills and plant magic growl there. It was forcibly raised by generating and giving water with a large amount of magical power and nutrients, and then with water magic.
――At first.
Although it can be solved by force, it is better to prepare a suitable growing environment so that magical power and other consumption will be less.
After the dwarves’ food shortages were resolved, they built paddy fields.
I didn’t intend to get involved in food production, except here, with the exception of the dwarves’ earth magic, which formed rice fields and ridges, where the elves poured water with water magic.
It doesn’t pull the waterway from the water source, but there is a waterfall by it (although it’s flowing down from so high that all the water is diffused in the air and no river is formed). , It seems that the land was abundant in water, and it has been managed.
The situation in such rice fields seems to be growing without any problems.
The rice ears had already grown and the rice fields were drained.
“Next is corn”
“Sefie, corn, sweet candy”
Then move to the plot where the corn is grown.
Two types of corn were grown here. Sweet corn that is cooked and served on the table, and corn that is suitable for sake.
By the way, did you notice?
So far, we have seen three crops, all of which are the raw materials for sake.
Since these are crops that are also staple foods, these three occupy about half of the field, but if they are simply consumed as food, the weight is clearly excessive. This is also the result of all the dwarves going.
By the way, my previous knowledge includes the existence of a corn variety called “explosive species”, but I haven’t made it now.
It seems that you can make popcorn confectionery (?), But I think you should make it again.
As far as I can see, there seems to be no problem with the corn field.
Elves were harvesting, and a female elf who noticed our existence walked up to us.
“This is a spirit to the princess. What happened?”
“Hatake Mimawarichu”
“No, I was looking around thinking it might be a problem. Do you have any requests or improvements?”
“No, that’s not the case here. Rather, the crops grow more and more, so it’s a lot of fun to take care of them.”
“Really. That’s fine. ”
It’s best to have fun working.
“Ah, but”
“Hmm? What happened?”
“You said that the damage caused by insects is quite severe in the fields near the forest on the outer edge.”
“Is it a bug? Okay, let’s take a look. ”
“Yes. Oh, princess, would you like to have some freshly picked corn?”
“Eat!”
The female elf stripped the harvested corn cleanly, stripped her beard and handed it to Sefie.
The received Sephi bites the raw corn. Chew with mogumogu,
“This crush is … delicious!”
“Well, basically I don’t eat anything other than grains.”
“That’s … it’s a luxury food.”
Certainly, when you say so, it’s a food with few edible parts, corn.
No, it doesn’t seem that the production efficiency is bad because it is a crop that is selected as a staple food.
By the way, we don’t eat it as a staple food in our village now. The staple food is mainly wheat and sometimes rice. Most of the corn is alcohol.
“Yugu, let’s give it to you.”
Isn’t the stick part the core?
I usually throw it away?
“That’s right … Please leave it at the root of the main body later.”
“have understood”
Well, let’s judge it as the kindness of Sephi who does not waste food.
“Well, let’s check other fields before going to the outer edge.”
When Sephi has finished eating corn, he will start again.
By the way, the corn core was collected from Sefie by a female elf saying, “I’ll leave it.”
…… Isn’t it really going to be left behind?
Do you believe me?
“This is … a place to grow vegetables.”
“This is a cucumber. It’s nice, but it’s a nice guy.”
I moved to a lot where various vegetables are grown.
What to grow depends on the wishes of the villagers.
Sefie points to a cucumber that has grown nearby and gives a unique impression.
“Defiant? why?”
“I want to touch this thorn once in a while.
Certainly, cucumbers have thorns, though.
“This is a spirit to the princess. What happened?”
“Ah, yeah. I’m looking around the fields thinking there’s something wrong. ”
Somehow déjà vu.
Perhaps he was weeding and harvesting in the fields. The male elf who noticed us was approaching.
“Is that so? No, there is no particular problem. Rather, it’s fun to work in the fields because you can get interesting vegetables.”
“Oh, that was good.”
“Ah, but by the way, I heard that there was insect damage in the outer field.”
“Oh, oh. I’ll go see it after this. ”
I heard it earlier.
But is it an insect? I don’t think it’s a serious damage because no reports have been received.
“Yes, please. Yes, Princess. Would you like to eat some freshly picked vegetables?”
“Eat!”
“…”
“What do you want to eat?”
“Then, that red guy!”
“It’s a tomato. Please wait a moment.”
When the male elf harvested the tomatoes, he washed them lightly with water magically produced and presented them to Sephi.
Sefie clings to a glossy tomato. Then chew and chew,
“A muddy guy in the middle of a bite is coming out, it’s kind of sweet and delicious!”
Are you bad at food repo?
“It doesn’t look very delicious.”
“delicious?”
“That’s fine”
When Sefie has eaten the tomatoes, Maple wipes the dirt around his mouth and then starts again.
By the way, various crops are grown in this vegetable plot. Not only cucumbers and tomatoes.
“The rest is spices, sugar cane fields, orchards.”
“Yes. Also, there are fields where potatoes are grown. I wonder if it was near the outer edge that the crops that became spices were grown.”
“Oh, is that so? Well, from here, the outer edge of the field is closer, so why don’t we go check the damage of insects first? ”
“That’s right. Is it okay in that order?”
I consulted with Maple and decided to go to the outer edge of the field to confirm the damage caused by the pests.
