Original subtitles

Are these all of them?

Mere child's play.

Ugh. They're covered in hair.

What are we going to do with all of these?

The shells of venom tarantulas are so hard that they're difficult to eat.

Huh?! Are these spiders edible?!

Is it over already?

Sui wanted to go pew pew.

Uncle Fel tried too hard.

Maybe next time.

Got it.

You're such a good kid, Sui!

Hey, you.

Isn't your attitude towards Sui too greatly different from your attitude towards me?

I listen to you properly, too, Fel.

Day after day, you tell me you want to eat this and you want to eat that.

"I want meat. No need for vegetables."

I let you be as selfish as you want.

Th-Then, as you said, you should prepare my meal!

Feed me!

I ran all day today with the two of you on my back.

You should be thankful for the opportunity to ride on the back of a legendary magical beast!

Yeah, yeah.

Let's put these away for now.

They might be useful for something.

There we go.

All right. Now, what should we eat today?

Hmm, we don't have much of each ingredient.

I know! Let's have gyoza!

Gyoza?

What is that?

Well, just watch.

Well, all right.

Master. Hurry, hurry.

Okay.

First, we'll need to get some gyoza wrappers and seasonings from the Online Grocery.

Thanks for always being here for me!

Oh! There's some wagyu!

Sui wants to see, too!

We're only going to buy what we need today.

Now, let's get started.

First, finely chop all the vegetables.

Then, add some ginger and garlic paste to the ground orc general meat.

Also some soy sauce, sake, and chicken broth powder.

Lastly, add sesame oil, salt, and pepper.

Since you can't taste the raw meat as you season it,

you've got to add the ingredients carefully.

Then you knead, knead, knead, until it all sticks together!

Then add the Japanese chives and cabbage that you've salted and squeezed the moisture out of.

Mix well again.

Is it ready?

Feed me quickly.

Not yet!

We're just getting started.

There are a lot of ways to wrap gyoza,

but pleats are the way to go if you plan to pan-fry them.

Master, you're amazing!

Hm? Is that so?

Do you want to try, Sui?

Yeah!

Add the filling in the center of the wrapper.

Add the filling.

Then, pinch the edges of the wrapper as you go.

As you go.

Something is different.

It looks like you added too much filling.

Let's try adding less filling next time.

Sui will work hard.

This should be plenty.

Line up the gyoza and cook them on medium heat.

Once they've started to change color,

add some flour dissolved in water and cover the pan.

Once the water boils away and starts making sizzling sounds, drizzle some sesame oil.

And finally...

All right!

The thoroughly seasoned gyoza are finished!

THOROUGHLY SEASONED ORC GENERAL GYOZA

I added plenty of seasonings to the filling so they should taste pretty good on their own.

But adding some chili oil and vinegar soy sauce is also...

Hot! Yet, delicious!

The meat and its juices explode in my mouth the moment I bite into them.

Not only is the flavor exceptional,

but the temperature, aroma, and the mouth feel of the wrappers as well.

Enjoy many things all at once!

The crispy skin and juicy meat inside are delicious.

Another serving!

I knew you guys would ask for more, so I've already started another batch.

Wait a little longer.

That was quite delicious.

Master, it was tasty.

Well, then. I won't hold myself back.

Gyoza and beer is the bes—

Huh? Huh? Huh?

Huh? Huh?

Huh?!

CAMPFIRE COOKING IN ANOTHER WORLD WITH MY ABSURD SKILL

EPISODE 13 "MY NEW FRIEND IS ABSURD" - What the heck is this thing?

EPISODE 13 "MY NEW FRIEND IS ABSURD" - Oho. A pixie dragon.

Oho. A pixie dragon.

How rare.

D-Dragon?

There are dragons this small?

Does it want some gyoza?

Here you go.

Hm? Does it want more?

Here you go.

Even dragons are pretty cute at this size.

Don't underestimate it because it has a small frame.

These creatures are quick. They're also skilled in all types of magic.

Wow...

H-Hey!

What the heck?! Let go!

What was that?!

Hey, this is crazy delicious. Gimme more!

Huh?

Who spoke just now?

Goodness.

That pixie dragon is now your familiar.

Familiar?

That's right. I knew my eyes wouldn't deceive me!

I don't mind becoming a contracted familiar as long as I can eat delicious things like this.

- Nice to meetcha! - Again?!

It's talking! Just like Sui!

Oh. You seem a lot stronger than you look.

Sui is strong!

Hold on a second! Don't just decide all of this on your own!

When did this happen?

Aren't you supposed to be a rare pixie dragon?!

Are you seriously going to become a familiar just for some food?

- You should think things over... - Of course I thought it through!

Your food is the most delicious food I've ever tasted!

It's simple. Won't I be able to eat more delicious things if I stick with you?

What?

You know your stuff.

Forming a contract with a human for a few decades is no big loss to us.

That's right, Fenrir.

It just adds some spice to the long lives of species like us.

Doesn't the master have any choice in the matter?

Is this world only full of gluttons?

Welp, the first thing you need to do as my master is give me a name!

Huh? Even if you suddenly ask for a name...

Hmm, you're a dragon...

And you're small...

How about Dora-chan?!

Dora-chan?

Are you kidding me?!

You should give me a more fitting name!

I think the name suits you well, Dora-chan.

Don't treat me like a kid! I'm an adult dragon!

Huh? Really?

Oh, your name's already been set as Dora-chan.

Wait, you're 116 years old?!

You don't look it at all.

I wanted a cooler name...

Forget it.

Since Dora is from dragon, it's plenty cool.

What's the problem with it?

Do not expect anything from this human.

He tried to name me Pochi or Koro.

They were all names that made me angry for some reason.

True. It totally sounds like he was belittling you.

Sui is Sui!

You sound pretty happy with your name.

- Yeah! - Oh? Oh?! Oh!

I was worried about suddenly having another familiar,

but it looks like everyone will get along.

THE CITY OF SPINNING, "KREHL"

Your familiar has been registered.

I never thought there'd be a day I'd register a dragon as someone's familiar!

Oh, thanks.

So, um...

Our guild master has a request for you, Mukohda.

Huh? Why me?

Oh, I kind of feel like I know why.

Are you Mukohda?

I'm the guild master here. Name's Rodolfo.

Nice to meet you.

That must be your pixie dragon.

I've heard of them before,

but I never thought I'd see one in person.

If he knew, he'd be so upset about missing out.

Um...

Oh, that's right.

Let me get straight to the point, I want to offer you a quest.

A forest exploration?

The forest has been strange lately.

It's not even mating season, but the monsters have gotten more aggressive.

Well, why doesn't everyone just avoid the forest then?

We can't do that!

The webbing spit out by the insect monsters that live in that forest

is the raw material we need for our town's special high-quality textiles.

The businesses in town would suffer if we lost the source of our raw materials.

Can you help us out?

Even if you ask, I can't just waltz into such a dangerous forest...

The northern forest, right? It's super easy!

It's full of spiders and centipedes that are all bark and no bite.

Spiders? Weak?

They're hairy and have hard shells.

♪ ONLY MUKOHDA AND HIS FAMILIARS CAN HEAR TELEPATHIC COMMUNICATIONS.

Well, they were all taken care of with my lightning magic.

Hmm?

Um, Rodolfo...

Is it too difficult for...

No, that's not it...

Venom tarantulas!

Th-Those are them! Why do you have them?!

Um, well, Fel...

They angrily attacked, so I punished them.

I'm so sorry! We didn't know they were valuable monsters to your town!

Not at all!

These monsters have a strong ability to reproduce

and we've often had to organize subjugation teams to deal with them...

This is the first time a problem's been solved before I even made the request.

By the way, the shells and webbing of venom tarantulas are worth a pretty penny

and its meat tastes delicious when boiled in salt water.

- What?! - What did you say?!

I see. Boiled in salt water...

I wanna try it, if it's delicious.

Master, Sui wants to try it, too.

Huh? But they're spiders...

Um, I'll sell the shells and webbing,

so can you process them for me?

Leave it to me.

I'll specially have the meat processed so it can be eaten right away.

Oh, how colorful.

So many colors and so pretty!

I'm glad we followed Rodolfo's advice.

You should check out our market if you haven't already.

You'll be able to buy high quality clothes for a cheap price.

I've been wanting a change of clothes.

Wow! The fabric feels so nice!

"1 GOLD COIN AND 5 SILVER COINS" - Whoa! So expensive!

No. Is it pretty cheap for this kind of quality? I can't tell.

Welcome.

You won't be able to buy this fabric so cheaply in other towns.

So, it's a good deal...

Okay!

Since we've come to the market, I'm going shopping!

Clothing is all the same.

You don't care because you have your own fur to cover you. I have needs!

I really went all out!

I wonder if the processing is done yet.

The flavor of their meat drops once you take it out of the shell, so I've left them.

Hand over the shells when you're done.

Wow! It looks just like crab.

They taste the best right after being boiled!

Thank you very much...

Delicious! They totally taste like crab! No, better than crab!

It's like they managed to concentrate the umami of crab into the meat!

Feed me!

Sui wants to eat!

Me, too! Me, too!

All right, we're having a crab party today!

Crab party?

VENOM TARANTULA FRIED RICE & SALAD - I made fried rice with plenty of

VENOM TARANTULA FRIED RICE & SALAD - shredded meat, salad, and crab omelet!

VENOM TARANTULA OMELET & FRIED SPRING ROLLS - There wasn't enough time to make croquettes,

VENOM TARANTULA OMELET & FRIED SPRING ROLLS - o I made them into fried spring rolls.

This is Dora-chan's welcome party, after all.

Really?

Instead of just eating crab... I mean,

instead of just eating tarantula, it's better to have a reason to party.

You're a good guy.

Welcome, Dora-chan!

Thank you for the meal!

This crab omelet. The richness and sweetness of the venom tarantula is exquisite!

It goes perfectly with the mellowness of the egg and this sweet and salty sauce!

It's delicious on rice, too!

Sui likes this because it's so refreshing.

It's a mock Caesar salad made by thinning out mayo with some lemon juice.

It's so hot!

Hot! Delicious! Hot!

The fried spring rolls are still hot so be careful not to get burned.

Now, for me...

Speaking of crab, you've got to eat some like this.

Yes! Grilled crab!

It's not actually crab, but this is pretty much grilled crab!

You are hiding food from us!

It smells so good!

Sui wants to eat it!

Isn't this my celebration party?

Fine, have some.

This is the best way to really taste the deliciousness of the meat!

The flavor spreads in your mouth the more you chew...

Delicious!

I can't believe I got to eat such delicious food.

I'm glad I chased after you.

I see. I see.

Huh? Chased after me?

That's right. I think it was around the City of Karelina.

I thought something smelled delicious.

I was thinking of calling out to you, but lost sight of you.

When I looked all over for you, the forest monsters got angry and caused me

a lot of trouble!

Hold on a second. That means...

Perhaps the monsters were frightened by the invading pixie dragon

and tried to eliminate the threat in their own way.

And you killed all the venom tarantulas that were desperately trying to survive?

It seems so.

I feel bad for them...

At least eat them deliciously.

Of course!

Thank goodness they lent us their yard!

The bath washed away the smell of the crab.

Baths are fun!

Right? Fel and Dora-chan should have joined us.

I can't eat another bite.

No need to eat venom tarantulas for a while.

That often happens when eating crab.

What a hectic day it was today.

I'll head to the guild tomorrow and hand over the shells to Rodolfo...

I feel like I've forgotten something, but well, whatever...

Wake up!

Don't sleep.

What is going on with him?

Should we beat him awake?

Here are the shells I promised.

Oh, great.

They're useful for a lot of things.

Also, here's some we couldn't finish.

Wow! Thanks! This stuff is great with some alcohol!

I'm glad to hear it! Then, I have a little more...

This is the earth dragon Fel hunted before...

It's a huge and troublesome catch, so I've just kept it stored away,

but I really should do something about it!

Um...

I heard there was someone who knew a lot about dragons in Dolan?

Do you know who that is?

- I have some idea... - Why?

Actually...

This is an earth dragon!

I was hoping to find someone who could process this thing.

Wow, it's the first time I've seen the real thing.

I heard that you could buy an entire kingdom with one of these...

It was no match for me.

As expected of the legendary Fenrir.

He's the first person that comes to mind when it comes to dragons... But...

ADVENTURER'S GUILD MASTER, ELLELAND - Here.

ADVENTURER'S GUILD MASTER, ELLELAND - Dungeon City Dolan.

The guild master of Dungeon City Dolan, Elleland.

He's a sure bet.

His skill and knowledge are top-notch.

His skill and knowledge at least...

Thank you very much!

For now, let's head to Dolan!

ANOTHER WORLD THEATER: SECOND SERVING

It should be time for our weekly offerings,

but that otherworlder is doing nothing!

- but that otherworlder is doing nothing! - It seems he's completely forgotten.

He's received our blessings,

so he needs to give proper offerings!

He promised...
