I look around at the animals in front of the bonfire I made with the principal and vice principal’s signs.

 

“‘Even though the water’s dried up, we’ve finally found the river!

 

If we move upriver from here, we’ll surely make it to the headwaters!

 

So let’s get rid of what’s blocking the river and you’ll have water!

 

We’re almost there, we’re almost there!”

 

The animals listened to my declaration.

 

Regardless of the meaning of the words, I think they got what I was trying to say, and they squealed back at me in unison with a war cry.

 

“All right, then, let’s get some food! Let’s have a party to celebrate!

 

You can catch all the fish you want in the river!”

 

The carnivorous beasts descend to the muddy river bed with a whoosh, and bite into the jumping fish.

 

I took the fruits and nuts I had collected along the way from my pockets and scattered them with gusto.

 

“There, all of you can eat over here too!”

 

The herbivorous beasts are also very happy because they have been moderating until now.

 

They catch fruits and nuts with their mouths like a man who has paper money falling from the sky.

 

Mark brought me a big fish.

Mosan

Qty 1

The fish that return to the river just before breeding are the most fatty and are considered to be in season.

==========

 

“Oh, Mosan, my favorite, thank you!”

 

I handle the Mosan I received with the “Great Knife of the Giant Boar”.

 

I cut them into rounds and grill them on skewers made of tree branches.

 

The skin is charred and the fat drips down.

Mosan-yaki

Qty 5

Quality Level 20|(Material Level 12 + Dexterity Bonus 1 + Cooking Bonus 2 + Seasonal Bonus 5)

 

It’s just baked morsels, but the original flavor of the ingredients is brought out in abundance.

 

It is very fatty and very delicious.

 

==========

 

I bite into the hot Mosan-yaki as if I were biting into a thick slice of ham.

 

The crispy texture of the skin is followed by a chewy texture.

 

The fat, filled with the blessings of this river where Mosan was born and the rich flavors of the sea where they grew up, spread …… like a jewel.

 

I had two of nature’s bounty in my mouth.

 

“Ummm …… ummmmmmmmmm?”

 

It’s just grilled fish, but it’s unstoppable, unstoppable goodness.

 

I’m sure this is just another empty sound, but out of nowhere.

 

…… Gosh!

 

And I thought I heard a throaty sound.

 

“Ugh …… yummmmmmmmmmm!”

 

“That’s nice, that’s nice, I love Mosan!”

 

“But since I came to this school, I couldn’t eat, so I’ve been holding back!”

 

“We’ve been eating emergency food at the school ever since the state of emergency was declared.”

 

“I’m being made to eat something that’s pasty and not very good at all. ……”

 

“Why only that rubbish eats something that looks so good ……!”

 

“Damn, I’m jealous!”

 

“To tell you the truth, I was a little unhappy about it.”

 

“But I don’t say it out loud, I only murmur it in my mind.”

 

“I bet if you put salt on this, it would be even better: ……”

 

If it’s salt, I have some in my coat pocket that Akemi gave me.

 

But I couldn’t just sprinkle it on.

 

Because it makes you thirsty.

 

I haven’t had a drop of anything that could be called water in a week.

 

I’ve managed to stay active thanks to my status, but my throat is parched to the point of tingling.

 

But I can’t let that weakness show.

 

Because I guessed it when I saw the principal and vice principal’s ‘zan-nen-datta’ signs.

 

I’m sure the principal and vice principal are out there somewhere watching me, ……!

 

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have written ‘Cry out to the sky’ on the sign.

 

That’s why I’m enjoying the best meal of my life right now.

 

I’m not going to let your schemes ruin my happiness.

 

That’s what I’m going to show you: ……!

 

When I finished my meal, which was much more sumptuous than usual, the fawns and kuribohs came over to me and started licking my face.

 

“You must be thirsty, wait a minute.”

 

I took a water bottle out of my pocket and …… filled it with water I had accumulated on the road.

 

I thought, but there was not a drop left.

 

“M-ho-ho-ho!” Look, everyone, the water bottle is finally empty!

 

We’ll finally get to see that trash cry it out!

 

ignore those blank stares and pet the kids.”

 

“Hang on, I’ll make you some water in a minute.”

 

“M-ho-ho-ho! He’s lost his mind at last! He’s talking about making water, something only a god could do!

 

If an unemployed person can do such a thing, I, the vice principal, will turn water into wine!”

 

I ignore those grating voices and take out a wooden cup from my coat pocket.

 

With the tip of the knife, I made a small hole in the bottom of the cup.

 

Then turn the cup upside down and fill it with stones, gravel, and sand.

 

I packed them in such a way that they became coarser towards the bottom, like a stratum.

 

To finish, I took off my coat and ripped one of the sleeves of my shirt.

 

It’s unbalanced, so I’m going to rip the other one out and make it short sleeved.

 

You can stuff that detached sleeve into the top of the cup at …….

Place an additional wooden cup under the finished filtration system.

 

“All that’s left to do is get some of that mushy water into the top of the filtration system. ……”

 

“M-ho-ho-ho! He’s finally started playing in the mud!

 

In despair, he has regressed into an infant! What a pathetic figure!

 

It’s fun to see the trash go down, it’s really fun! Moo-hoo-hoo ……?”

 

The moment the clear liquid dripped from underneath the filtration system in a trickle, there was an empty sound like the rustling of trees.

 

“It’s …… why!

 

How can mud that’s supposed to be dirty be turned into water just by putting it in a cup with dirty dirt in it!”

 

“And that water is so beautiful ……, it’s sparkling like a jewel ……!”

 

“Really ……It’s like magic ……!”

 

“……?”
