Chapter 70: The Restaraunt Also Lacked Firewood

There was no doubt now that I had co to this town at the worst possible ti.

However, as the situation was not related to monsters, I didn’t feel the need to leave as soon as possible.

If anything, if the requests were all as safe as gathering wood, then it suited just fine.

After all, the job of gathering wood and storing it was very easy with the slis.

There couldn’t be a job more easy for .

…That being said, I hadn’t decided to stay either.

I couldn’t decide until I had eaten.

I thought about this as I searched for the restaurant.

The place that Tina had recomnded was called ‘Tiger Fire.’

It was supposed to be close to the guild… That being said, there was an easier way to find it.

‘Can just one of you split from the others?’

‘Just one…you an to fly?’

‘Exactly.’

‘Okay!’

And with that, one smaller sli split from the large sli that was on my shoulder.

The united blob was too large to throw, and so a smaller single sli was the perfect size.

‘Okay. I need you to scout out the place!’

I said as I threw the sli. At the sa ti, I activated ‘Shared Senses.’

And then I saw a sign that read, ‘Tiger Fire’ near the guild.

‘Thank you.’

I said as I caught the sli.

And so we headed towards it…

“I’m sorry, but we are no longer taking any orders today.”

What awaited when I arrived, was this cruelest of declarations.

…But then again, it was quite late.

The taverns would be open, but a normal eatery would probably close around this ti.

I had co a little too late.

As I had no choice, I would just have to stay the night in Rikardo.

“Alright. I’ll co back tomorrow.”

“I’m terribly sorry, but I doubt we will be open tomorrow… In fact, we were supposed to be open until midnight today, but all of the firewood went to the stoves. And now we do not have enough to cook with.”

…Apparently, the reason for closing was a lack of firewood.

As it was normally a warm place, the sudden cold had forced them to use the firewood that was used for cooking.

You wouldn’t die without a delicious al. But the cold was sothing else.

However, I wanted to eat so delicious food.

It was half of the reason that I even ca to this town.

“So, you just need so firewood?”

“We could open if we had so… But this town no longer has any firewood that could be used for cooking. If we used new wood that hadn’t been dried out yet, it would be like smoking it, not cooking.”

…True. It would be hard to cook when the area is filled with smoke…

Good restaurants took care of what kind of flas were used.

I could try going to a different town and acquire so wood, but in this cold, there would probably be a lot of competition.

And that seed like a lot of work just for so food.

In that case…

“Would I be allowed to cut down so of the trees around here for firewood?”

“Not the trees within the town. But you could go outside the walls and cut those trees. …But we wouldn’t use them for cooking unless the wood has been dried out for a year.”

I see. So I could cut the trees outside.

Why not see if I could make so firewood then?

It would usually take a whole year to dry them properly. But maybe I could do it with magic.

After all, I had a skill called ‘Altering Magic.’

“Okay. Thank you for the information.”

“No problem! …Please co again when we have more firewood!”

And so I left after this conversation and went out into the forest.

I still had to think of a way to dry them, but the acquisition of the materials ca first.

…But before that…

I tried using the magic I had just found.

“Magic Insulation.”

I said. And then all of the coldness I had felt disappeared as if it had never been there.

I had looked through my magic while walking and had found the perfect one.

There was lots of snow in the forest, and so it would make a big difference.

Now I could go and gather wood without worrying.
