Okonomiyaki Chain Store - 46 (Fin) - Osakan Auntie Became a Hero

The demon priests immediately converged around the Demon King and healed him.

“Yosh! Maa, that’s how these things go! Even if you strike out times in a row, as long as you hit a home run in the fourth, you win!”

Haruna said smugly over her folded her arms. While she often gets carried away while doing something, she was so overpowered that she could get away with all kinds of things. Natalia was too relieved that they had won the fight to reproach her.

Okonomiyaki Chain Store - 45 - Osakan Auntie Battles with Demon King

With the Helmet Guy as a guide, Haruna and Natalia made their way to the Demon King’s castle. The fateful encounter of two titans happened at the castle hall.

The Demon King did not look much older than Haruna’s physical age. His hair was jet black and so were the wings sprouting from his back, indicating the species of his demon line. Well, to be fair, though the wings were as black as his hair, they looked more like bird’s feathery wings than the expected bat wings. Lessening th...

“Fuuuhhh~ I’m full.”

“That was really delicious, wasn’t it?”

“Un, very delicious.”

“So delicious,

“I’m so full~”

After lunch, we all settled down to relax our stomachs. I had some iced coffee while my guests enjoyed more orange juice [1]. Well, it looks like everyone enjoyed the food. Fer and my other companions had stuffed themselves until they couldn’t move anymore. Fufufu, it’s a win for me this time.

Right now my companions...

Tondemo Isekai - 193 - Cockatrice Honey Mustard Sandwich

Author Eguchi Ren: Today’s chapter is a little short.

We entered the house and I lead the kids up to our living room.

“Wh-what an incredible house…” Phillip said, gazing about the place.

“Ah, it’s just a rental, though. I only need it while I’m in the city.”

The talk degenerated to how awesome and amazing it must be to be an A Rank Adventurer yet again.

Well, I can’t speak for other A Rankers, but the reason why I earn so much money was becaus...

“We’re here,”

Anton’s family business, the Severi Workshop, was situated about 30 minutes’ walk from Neihoff city proper.

The front part of the building served as the proper storefront, whereas the back portion of the shop served as the workshop.

“Please, do come in.” Everyone entered the store, except for Fer and Dora-chan. The destructive duo was left outside. [1]

“Ah, it’s the young master. Is there something the matter?” a shop assistant came ...

Okonomiyaki Chain Store - 44 - The Demon King Made Contact

The Hiroshima Style Okonomiyaki, lovingly known as Hiroshimayaki, was added to the [Haru-chan’s] menu with much fanfare. It was very popular not only due to its deliciousness, but also because it came about through a formal agreement with a goddess. Such a high class good could never be unpopular.

The rapid increase in the number of stores in the northern part of the country was slowly reaching its plateau. Even so, Haruna and Natalia were kept busy as always, doing their best to stay...

They all looked around, but couldn’t find the source of the voice. Nor could they see anything out of place either.

“I- I don’t know either. B-but there was a voice…”

Hidden behind Haruna were Karen and Kokon, who were trembling so hard they could not stand upright.

The other tourists and priests were all yelling things like ‘It’s divine punishment, run!’ before gunning for the exit.

As soon as we entered the Adventurer’s Guild, one of the staff member hurried off. Shortly after that, Yoran-san came out to greet us, “Oh, have you been waiting long? As promised, we have dismantled the monsters and set aside the meat for you. Shall we head off to the warehouse?”

We all agreed and trailed after Yoran-san to the warehouse. Horace was already waiting for us.

“Alright, shall we discuss prices first? Oh, before that, I should hand over the meat, right? Righ...

Tondemo Isekai - 190 - F Rank Adventurers

“Excuse me. May we rest here for a bit?” asked the person who looked like the leader of this band of teenage boys and girls.

Instead of being the lively youths they obviously were, they looked pretty beat up and defeated.

“I am called Mukouda, I too am an Adventurer, after a fashion. I’m guessing you guys are Adventurers as well? May I know what happened?”

The exhausted leader answered, “As Mukouda has guessed. We are Adventurers. However, we’ve only been at ...

They travelled to Old Capital Hower from the Royal Capital proper via the slightly cramped, horse-drawn carriage.

As they moved out of the Capital, the scenery grew less and less urban, stone buildings and houses giving way to trees and shrubs.

“This relaxing view just keeps going on, naa.”

In this world, there were very few people living outside proper human settlements like towns and cities due to the danger of monsters. Unlike in Japan where you might see uni...

Guilds were especially busy in the early mornings, so we came a little later to avoid the mad scramble for missions. There was practically no one at the reception hall when I came in.

The receptionist went off to fetch Yoran-san for us right after I showed her my guild card.

The growth of [Haru-chan] group went very smoothly.

All dungeon-type stores that were opened near the Royal Capital recorded very good sales. Proving that there was a need there that had gone unfulfilled for far too long.

Merchants who witnessed this progress could only stare as an opportunity to make money slipped from their fingers. They must have thought about doing a similar sort of business, but they just could not put thought into practice.

Dora-chan, Sui and I came out from the bath to flop down on the bed, gazing into nothing as we enjoyed the aftermath of our bath.

Fer was already tucked into his futon. Suddenly, he raised his head and narrowed his eyes at us. “Nu, I think Sui has evolved.

Naturally, it was not something Natalia had ever heard of before.

“That’s right, ya. Not meat buns but Pork Buns. The word in front is actually important, you know?”

“Wait, no, that is not the important point here…”

In Kansai, meat buns are called Pork Buns.

Why?

One theory is that, ‘meat’ in general always means ‘beef’. By calling it pork bun, you’re telling your customer that this product only contains beef....

With meat and rice at hand, let’s make Onigiri Meatroll [1] also known as Nikumaki Onigiri!

It’s simple to make, delicious to eat and one of the best things to eat for a picnic under the clear blue sky.

For me, Onigiri Meatroll has to be made with yakiniku sauce [2] covered meat slices. It’s also one of the easiest ways to make a delicious meal out of meat, so, bonus!

As for the meat choices, hmm, let’s go with Orc, Bloody Horn Bull and Wyvern meat. Also, let’s h...

Okonomiyaki Chain Store - 39 - The Hot Spring is a Great Success

Note from Gumihou: hot spring and public bath are used interchangeably. In fact, onsen or hot spring should have natural springs while public baths are baths that are open to the public and usually provide hot water only.

However, with the ability to transport spring water from the source thousands of miles away in trucks or synthesizing the hot spring minerals into powder meant that public baths could also become ‘hot spring’ as well.

Considering that Haruna had provided her ...

Tondemo Isekai - 186 - Cyclops

We made our way towards the quarry to take down the Cyclops.

Since the quarry was basically the whole side of a mountain, over time miners had cut out the large step-like structure into the mountainside.

We could spot the quarry long before we arrive, and our target was quite large, so-

“-so, that’s a Cyclops…”

The Cyclops was about four meters tall, more or less man-shaped with one eye, and was stomping about the quarry as though he owned the place.

Now that they have the space to make a large public bath, the next thing to do was dig up a large reservoir to store the hot water. The whole was quickly dug up via magic and sheer brute power and the next thing Natalia knew, Haruna was already putting water into it.

At first, Natalia wondered how long it would take to fill such a large bath. However, as soon as she had gotten a rough estimate, Haruna increased the speed of water pouring from her hands.

“There, that should do it...

Tondemo Isekai - 185 - Dora-Chan is a Good Boy

Author Eguchi Ren: The Chapter is a little short this time

Since I was too lazy to make anything fancy for dinner, I decided that a quick and easy Yakiniku Don would be the best.

Luckily, everyone likes it, because meat. Moreover, I decided to indulge and make it with the very precious and delicious Earth Dragon meat so there were no complaints from anyone.

After the excellent meal, Dora-chan, Sui and I went to the bathroom for our promised nightly bath. View Post

“By hot spring, do you mean a spring that wells up water that’s hotter than usual?” It would seem that Natalia had never been to a proper hot spring bath before.

“I used to enjoy taking baths at about that temperature in my previous country. Well, the water itself doesn’t necessarily have to be from a natural spring. As long as it’s a large bath with lots of hot water, it’s good enough for me.”

We came to the Western Forest to fulfil the subjugation request against Evil Plants.

According to Yoran-san, for some strange reason, an outbreak of Evil Plants would occur every 10 years or so.

He also mentioned that this year’s outbreak was unusually serious. Considering the number of enemies we have to deal with and the size of the forest, I think it would be more efficient to divide ourselves into two groups so that we could cover more ground that way.

However, since it was hard for a dragon to pick up a plate, let alone a fork, she placed it into his mouth for him. Since one piece would be too little, she placed three pieces at once into the cutlet was hard to grab with the dragon's hand, Haruna took it with a fork and put it in his mouth. One slice would be too little, she put three slices of miso sauc...
