Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 9: Kitchen Knife? Evolve a little before coming to the kitchen
Vitality fragments? What are those?
"Hello?" Σ (⊙)?

Du Jianshao expressed doubt, but Guangtai asked it to wait and soon took out a box of light golden diamond-shaped "gems" from the cabinet in the living room.

"The Vitality Fragments, although they all have the same shape, some are made of minerals and some are artificially made, but the effects are the same."

"Using these two plants, Vitality Buds and Healing Herbs, after a series of processing, Vitality Fragments can be made."

Guang Moss handed the vitality fragment to the single sword sheath.

"Yo?"

The Dujianscabbard grabbed the light golden "gem" with its blue palm, and then its eyes immediately widened!
A strong vitality emanates from it!

The scabbard of the single sword exuded a ghostly lavender energy, and soon the piece of vitality held in the blue ribbon disappeared.

"Has it been absorbed? It can be used without losing any physical strength. It's really different from the game world. The vitality fragments that can restore HP have strange life energy themselves."

"Sure enough, he eats with that blue ribbon-like hand."

The setting of this thing says that it will wrap the arm of the person holding the hilt with blue cloth and suck the life out of him until he falls down.

It seemed that the guy did this just because he was hungry.

This makes sense. In the underwater ruins of the Unova region, there is a saying from ancient times: to eat is to gain all life.

Those with mouths eat with their mouths, and those without mouths use their own methods.

However, the price of vitality fragments is about three times that of tree fruits, with an average price of 1500 Pokécoins. It is much more expensive than normal food and vegetables, almost close to those "large ingredients". If you consume vitality fragments every day, it will be a considerable expense.

It seems that if feasible, in order to save money, I should open up a piece of land near the cabin and grow some vegetables and fruits myself. After all, I will have to work here for a long time.

"Well, you are full, but I am not."

It was already very late. Guangtai came to the stove and looked at the stone chimney and the many firewoods piled up in the kitchen. They were chopped by the original owner when he went out.

Fortunately, the original owner did some work when he came back, otherwise he would be facing a situation where he had no firewood to use.

Then Guang Moss found some food from the storage box.
Canned chicken. Canned pickles.

Lots of onions. Lots of radishes.

There was also butter, a small bag of flour, and moo-moo fresh milk.

As well as some tree fruits and mushrooms that were picked not long ago and placed in a paper bag.

During long-distance travel, it is impossible to guarantee fresh food sources, and the shelf life of ordinary vegetables other than tree fruits is not long, except for onions, which undoubtedly have one of the longest shelf lives at room temperature, which can be as long as one month.

In comparison, tree fruits are really strange natural foods. They can be stored for a long time without rotting or spoiling, and different tree fruits contain different nutrients.

Guangtai decided to stew all these things together. This is a very common cooking method, using cheap and easily available ingredients and stewing them in a pot. Of course, in order to increase the taste and flavor of the stew, some ingredients will be fried or stir-fried before stewing.

In the Pokémon world, in addition to common ingredients, tree fruits can also be used as raw materials for stews.

In the distant Galar region, curry is made from tree berries.

Du Jianshao, who had already "eaten and drunk enough", flew into the kitchen immediately when he saw Guangtai starting to prepare ingredients for cooking!
The new king is cooking himself!

As a knight, how could I not come to help!

If you want to cut vegetables, of course it would be much faster to use your own sword blade. After all, it is quite "sharp"!

“Yo!”

The sword sheath came to the food table and pulled out its own body from the scabbard with a clang. The blue ribbon hand grabbed the falling scabbard, and the blade emitted a light green sharp glow!

Du Jianshao used the move "Continuous Slash"!
It works great on cabbage! Rub, rub, rub, rub, rub——!
The onion, which was originally a round shape, collapsed at a very fast speed and turned into thin onion shreds, while the blade of the sword sheath swung out an illusion!

The Bug-type moves are used to cut vegetables so smoothly, after all, vegetables belong to the Grass-type!
"Oh! 'Continuous Slash' can be used like this. I haven't thought of using the ancient sword to cut vegetables. After all, you are not a kitchen knife."

Guang Tai was stunned, while Du Jianshao was quite satisfied with his performance. His one eye widened and he raised the sword proudly, totally ignoring the onion crumbs and water droplets on it. Guang Tai quickly avoided it.

“Yo~yo!”

It is the duty of a minister to share the worries of the monarch. It's just some ingredients. It's a piece of cake to cut them all if necessary!
Guang Moss was a little surprised:

"Is that so? You are quite skilled at this sort of thing. Then I'll leave the job of cutting the berries to you as well."

I didn't expect the sword sheath had this ability. Guang Moss thought that after it was given to the knight by the ancient king, it could only chop people and cut melons and vegetables. Is that how I understand it?

But this makes it easier!

"Yo!"

When Du Jianshao heard Guangtai's praise, the flame of fighting spirit seemed to burn in his one eye!

Hey () Hey!

New king, you've seen it! It's not that I'm not powerful, but your strength is greater than mine. But when it comes to cutting vegetables, of course I'm better at it!
As for those cheap kitchen knives, let them evolve before being used in the kitchen!

The next day, September 6th.

it's clear.

The first rain of summer has stopped, the sun has risen, and this ancient land has officially ushered in the moment of recovery.

I slept very comfortably, and all the fatigue from yesterday was gone. Guangtai made the bed and checked the time.

07: 35.

It is a beautiful morning.

The sword sheath was not put into the Poké Ball. It stood sideways in the corner, with the tip of the sword touching the ground and the hilt against the crack in the corner. Just like the soldiers in the past would place their weapons diagonally on the edge of the corner so that they could be taken away at any time, the sword sheath seemed to have retained this habit.

Guangtai looked at the ancient sword with its eyes closed and pondered for a moment.

How about making a weapon rack?
In the Pokémon world, there is a profession that studies the Pokémon ecology, and Dr. Odamaki and Dr. Old Yew are the leaders in this field.

Different types of Pokémon prefer different lifestyles. Although Dujianshua gave me the example of the Sword in the Stone yesterday, I don't think there is any weapon that really likes to be stuck in the bricks of the ruins and endure the wind and sun for a thousand years.

Even the Sword King Cang Xiang's tool, the "Sword of Decay", rotted after 3000 years of time. It was a true brave sword, but it ended up like this, let alone other ordinary ancient swords.

Today is still a busy day.

The house, warehouse, and work area all need to be tidied up, and the same goes for the land outside.

Guangtai went to the warehouse first and took out a board and a machine.

When you are outdoors, one of the necessary items is a portable solar power source.

Go outside the workshop, turn on the machines, bask in the sun, and reserve enough electricity.

This place is a certain distance away from the village, but not very far. There is a large piece of land in front of the door, with nameless weeds, stones of different sizes, and some branches blown from nowhere by the wind.

It rained yesterday so I couldn't see clearly what was going on in the distance. Today it was sunny. Guangtai looked around and thought of the map on the wall.

Tall ancient sacred peaks and ruins of temples, distant villages, and several natural dirt roads and gaps leading out of the valley.
