Isekai Nonbiri Nouka

Chapter 756 – Dragon and Snow Mountain

Late afternoon.

I headed for the snow mountain.

I heard that the children had eaten at the snow mountain so I thought it would be nice to bring them sweets.

Strawberries….no, how about dried fruits?

Dried fruits.

It is made by drying fruits.

TN: And here I thought it was made by smoking meat. I guess that’s how fantasy world works.

Once the water content of the fruit is removed, its sweetness will be denser.

You can enjoy a different taste from eating the same fruit.

We have made dried fruits several times in the village but almost all of them had been consumed by the fairy queen as snacks.

It was probably because the amount of dried fruits we made was small.

The villagers are fine with it so it’s not a problem but the problem is that none of them goes to the mouth of the villagers.

As a countermeasure, the fruit area was expanded in order to increase the production of fruits which will also increase the production of dried fruits.

Thanks to these changes, villagers can now eat dried fruits.

It has a good reputation among villagers.

The demon king and Michael-san also tasted it and wanted to take some home but for now, we don’t have any plan about it other than being consumed by the villagers.

Since we made so many, there are bound to be a fair amount of failures.

We are very strict with our quality assurance and we don’t want any failed products mixed in with what we sell to others.

If it was in the village, people would just laugh at it but if it reaches outside, it would be a quality problem.

I would like to wait until our dried fruit production skill develops before selling them outside the village.

Incidentally, dried persimmons can be considered as dried fruit and since the village has been making a certain amount of dried persimmons every year, the technique has been well-developed and there have been almost no failed products.

It is all thanks to the dried persimmon enthusiast called Rasuti, I guess.

Dried potatoes….can dried potatoes be considered as dried fruit?

Dried plums…..this is troublesome.

While I was thinking about some strange things, I arrived at the snow mountain.

Ah, the children are sliding down the snow mountain and they look pleased.

They are using skiboards, sleds, and…snowboards.

Hnn?

What’s that ski board with a chair?

Do you plan on enjoying a cup of tea while sitting on it?

Maybe but, is that fun?

Well, there’s nothing wrong with taking the challenges everything attitude.

Ah, these dried fruits are for you.

Please share it.

The oni maids have probably prepared hot food and there’s soup to warm you up.

No, this smell.

It’s not just soup.

It smells like curry soup.

Yeah, drinking curry soup in a snow mountain is a good idea.

It goes well with snow mountain.

However, does curry soup and dried fruits taste good together?

Dried fruits are sweet but they have a weaker impact compared to fresh fruits.

Did I make the wrong choice?

Then, what should be curry soup’s partner then?

Ramen?

Yakisoba?

Steamed potato?

No, no, I wanted something sweet for the children who are probably tired from playing in the snow mountain.

I mean….what’s good?

Something warm and sweet.

And something that will complement curry soup.

…..

Roasted corn is the way!

「Dried fruit, delicious–」

The children’s voices brought me back to reality.

Ah, I see.

Dried fruit is delicious?

……

The oni maids put dried fruits in their curry.

……

I see. This is a learning experience.

Can I have some of that too?

-0-

Curry soup with dried fruit.

Not bad.

I’ll try making it myself next time.

By the way, I’d like to verify something…..

What is that rope that stretches from the top to the foot of the snow mountain?

Rope for children’s use when they climb up?

Until recently, the dragons were carrying the children up to the top but the children said they wanted to climb up by themselves so they set up that rope.

I see.

So, they found fun not only in sliding but also in climbing?

No?

Hiichirou doesn’t want the dragons to give him and Guraru preferential treatment?

And Guraru agreed.

I see, I see.

Ah, the ski board with chair was carried by the dragons, right?

As expected, the children can’t carry something like that so I guess it can’t be helped.

However, the dragons look sad that they no longer have to carry the children up…..

Seeing my concern, Tiselle took the initiative to have the dragons send the little ones.

The dragons’ reaction was…..

Ah, they look reluctant but they are happily wagging their tails.

They don’t seem to feel bad about being asked for help.

That day, the children enjoyed the snow mountain until the sun went down.

The next day.

The rope that was used to climb the top of the mountain has turned into a lift.

The lift, however, was not the chairlift that can be found on ski resorts but just a rope stretched out as it was yesterday.

However, unlike yesterday, the rope is moving toward the summit.

In other words, the children could climb to the summit just by holding on to the rope.

The children are chuckling as they grab the rope and climb.

It looks like the mountain elves did what they do best.

The installation was done by the titans and high elves.

Thank you.

However, how is it powered?

Golem?

That’s convenient.

How about safety?

You know that it will be the children who’ll use it so you made sure to consider everything?

Good.

Excellent.

What about the depressed dragons who no longer have any roles now that there’s a lift?

Girar looks like it’s the end of the world.

Guraru is using the lift with….Hiichirou.

Is that okay?

What are you going to use those for?

Skiboards?

Sled?

Boards?

Those are not kid-size.

Those are for adults.

In short, you’re going to ski with them in human form?

So, you’re going to play with the children.

I see.

Not a bad idea.

When Hiichirou and Guraru come down, invite them to join us…..

No, I’ll invite them.

If it’s me, there’s no way Hiichirou and Guraru would say no.

-0-

That day, the dragons seemed to have enjoyed the snow mountain with the children.

And me, of course.

Yeah, skiing is difficult.

Sledding is better.

And safer.
