Original subtitles

We've done it now...

What's going on?

Whoa! That's amazing!

We took the goblin hunting quest to raise my rank as soon as possible...

Um, I have the requested proof...

I mean, I'm not surprised it'd turn out like this.

-This is a crazy amount! -I hope this doesn't become a big deal...

Please count through those!

Mukohda!

The guild master would like to see you.

Please have your familiars come as well.

I knew this would happen!

CAMPFIRE COOKING IN ANOTHER WORLD WITH MY ABSURD SKILL

I've brought him here.

You must be Mukohda. I'm the guild master, Willem.

EPISODE 9 "HUNTING QUESTS ARE ALL ABOUT MEAT AND MONEY"

I heard that you hunted down an enormous number of goblins.

Yes, we came across a goblin settlement.

That's what I suspected.

There was a sharp increase in the number of sightings.

Looks like we'll have to reward you for taking care of the settlement, too.

Huh? Really?

Of course.

Even so, Fenrir's strength is really impressive!

The cat's out of the bag...

Sui took a lot of them down, too!

AS SUI IS USING TELEPATHY, WILLEM CANNOT HEAR IT.

A slime?

Oh, that's right. Sui is unique for its kind and really strong.

Way stronger than me!

You guys are really interesting.

Huh?

Anyways.

I called you here because we received

an urgent message from the royal palace for you.

The royal palace?!

In summary,

"You may live freely in my kingdom.

The nobles have already been notified.

However, I hope to request help of you in times of emergency."

That's how it is.

Does that mean I won't be bothered by the royal family or the nobles?

Yeah, the mere presence of a legendary monster in our kingdom

is considered a threat to our neighbors.

Awesome! My freedom is secure!

Now, I'd like to talk about something else.

You want to increase your rank from G-rank, right?

Oh, yes. I would like to become

an F-ranker so I can keep my license during longer journeys.

Then, I can use my authority as guild master to make you a C-ranker.

Huh? Skipping to C-rank?

It's more problematic if Fenrir's master is only a G-ranker.

In exchange, there's a few requests I'd like you to take on.

Quests directly from a guild master?!

No, I'm not planning to become a serious adventurer. I'd like to reject...

No, these requests are A-rank or S-rank requests.

They're actually direct requests for your familiar.

Oh, I see...

Fel, looks like these requests are for you.

There is nothing that I cannot do.

Oh! That's great!

High-ranking quests tend to remain unclaimed for a long time...

I'm sure there aren't a lot of adventurers qualified to pick them up.

I'd like to have you do some quests that are time-sensitive.

I'll also notify the other adventurers so they don't get in your way.

Thank you very much!

He's thoughtful about our situation.

He might be able to do it!

Um, there's something I'd like to sell in addition to what I've already handed over.

This is the first time I've ever seen a chimera or orthrus!

Johan, don't tell others about what you've seen today!

I haven't taken them out until now because I was worried about causing a small scene,

but I feel the two of you are trustworthy.

This would've caused much more than a small scene.

We can't do anything about the chimera or orthrus.

My guild doesn't have enough money.

In fact, I'm not even sure if we can put a price on them.

I'd be too scared to accept them in the guild.

No use, huh?

What should I do about these?

Are they really going to be sealed away forever?

I never thought I'd get the chance to butcher a blue ogre in my life...

Are they really that rare?

Of course it is.

Blue ogres are special S-rank individuals in the ogre population.

This orc king is an A-rank monster,

but it always has hundreds of orcs at its command.

It's damn near close to S-rank.

A pile of S-rank monsters... He hunted them like they were nothing.

What's wrong, Sui?

Sui wants to defeat tons of monsters easily like Uncle Fel...

No need to push yourself...

As a butcher, this gets my blood pumping.

Come back tomorrow.

I'll have your C-rank guild card ready, too.

Thank you very much.

All right, what should we eat today?

Meat.

We've been eating a lot of greasy food lately...

Meat is good.

Sui, too!

Well...

Yeah, we should eat something refreshing.

All right!

First, boil rockbird breast in water with sake and salt.

While the breast meat is cooling, julienne the cucumbers and slice the tomatoes.

Shred the cooled rockbird meat by hand!

Sui will help, too!

Oh, thanks!

We did it, Master!

Yeah...

After laying out the vegetables and meat, we finish it off with sesame dressing.

It's done! Rockbird banbanji!

I should add something else.

I'll make rockbird and pepper stir fry.

Cut the rockbird into bite-size pieces and season it with sake and soy sauce.

Cut the bell peppers after removing the seeds.

Add them to the pan after searing the outside of the meat.

CHINESE SEASONING PASTE

Add flavor with this lovely stuff and stir fry...

It's done!

ROCKBIRD AND PEPPER STIR FRY

Hey! Food is ready!

This is not solely meat.

Cheers to a free life!

This is the best. The sesame dressing is so light and refreshing!

Master, this brown stuff is sweet and delicious.

We've got to thank the Japanese food industry for that.

This one was also easily seasoned with an oyster and soy sauce paste.

It's tasty, too.

Really?

The crisp texture of the vegetables is great.

Oh, I forgot to steam some rice.

I'll use bread today.

Yup! So good!

Sui wants to eat that, too!

Okay! Okay!

Another serving.

Okay. Okay.

Sui, do you hate bell peppers? The green stuff.

It was a little bitter.

I see. But you were able to eat them. I'm proud of you!

Yay!

That looks a little cramped.

Human cities are too constricting.

It's true that we have been sleeping freely under the stars lately.

Should Sui go pew-pew?

You can't melt this down!

Want to lay out the futon?

It might make you a little more comfortable.

Do so.

How's that? Good?

I can't tell if he's a feline or a canine...

Good night, Uncle Fel.

First, here's your C-rank guild card.

Wow! It's a silver card!

C-rankers only need to complete a request once every six months.

Your license shouldn't be revoked easily now.

Thank you very much.

And...

Here's yesterday's payment.

Huh?!

In the first load you handed over,

the most valuable monster was the red serpent at 201 gold coins.

Everything together is 461 gold coins.

We stored all the meat in our warehouse, so grab it on the way out.

This is way more than what we got last time.

And, about the second load you handed over. The total is pretty crazy.

The four ogres were 160 gold coins

and the high-ranking blue ogre was worth 432 gold coins.

Four hundred?!

Everything together came out to be 1,415 gold coins.

On top of that, the goblin hunting reward

and the reward for destroying their settlement

makes your final total 1946 gold coins.

This is the highest price this guild has ever spent on a single adventurer's sale.`

I still have some money left from last time...

Wait, doesn't that mean I have more than 2,000 gold coins in my pocket now?

Yay! Yay!

I'm a huge target! I'll have to keep this quiet!

About the guild requests. There are two quests I'd like to have you do.

I want you to hunt a metal lizard and a pack of bloody horn-bulls.

Please hunt the metal lizard first.

It's made a nest at the foot of Pascal Mountain,

about a two-day carriage ride from here.

We know it has some kind of favorite food, but we haven't been

able to find out what it is.

Physical attacks barely have any effect on it due to its metallic scales.

Because of that, we haven't been able to do anything about it until now.

Fel hunted one before,

but I didn't realize they were such dangerous monsters...

The pack of bloody horn-bulls have settled in the plains west of here.

They're occupying the hunting grounds for newbie adventurers,

but the quest kept being pushed aside since there isn't a manmade road there.

Their violent nature and their large pack sizes make them very dangerous.

Their meat is very delicious.

As expected of Lord Fenrir. You have exquisite taste.

Their high-quality meat is popular among humans, as well.

Bull... That means they're beef!

Fel, don't you want to eat its meat prepared in that way?

That way? Ah! That way!

We'll increase the purchase price,

since the guild would like to buy half the meat, as well.

What's wrong?

I'm glad we restocked our meat supply.

We should head out early tomorrow morning.

I do not mind leaving immediately.

No matter how fast you are,

we'd be getting back in the middle of the night if we left right now.

I wish to eat grilled steak as soon as possible...

We need to hunt the metal lizard first.

More importantly, there's something I want to buy.

Welcome...

Oh! Mukohda!

Hello, Lambert.

Thank you for coming.

This is an impressive store.

Is it all right if Fel comes in, too?

Yes, of course.

Actually, I'm here to buy a new bag.

What kind of bag are you looking for?

Something similar to this one.

I see. Then, how about these?

This one is made of red boar leather.

"2 GOLD"

I recommend it for regular use.

This one is made of bloody horn-bull leather. It's soft and easy to use.

"5 GOLD"

And this one is made of giant deer leather.

The longer you use it, the better it weathers. It is exceptionally durable.

"4 GOLD AND 5 SILVER"

This one is made of sand snake skin.

It's expensive, but the beautiful scales on it makes it very popular.

"8 GOLD"

They are all bags made proudly by our artisans.

If it were my choice, I'd pick the giant deer bag...

Lambert, is it okay if I take Sui out a bit?

Of course. Oh, you plan to use it for your familiar.

If that's the case, softer leather may be best.

I agree. I'd like the one who's using it to make the final decision.

Sui, which one do you like best?

S-Sui!

Sui likes this one!

S-Sorry about that!

No, no. I don't mind at all.

This is great. I always wanted something to keep my knife at my waist.

We focused on the design of the buckle.

This item is 6 gold coins.

Six?!

This is nice, too. The scales really stand out on the smaller accessories!

The scales used on this purse are from a beautifully patterned snake skin.

It's an accessory so it's only 1 gold coin.

Buy! I'll buy it!

Thank you very much.

You sell shoes, too?

Yes, since they are also leather goods.

I've been wearing the same cheap leather shoes this whole time.

They've gotten pretty beaten up.

I could buy them through my Online Grocery,

but I don't want to stand out too much in this world...

I'd like these, as well!

A bag, purse, boots, and a belt with sheathe.

Your total comes to 11 gold coins.

However, for you, they are free.

Huh?!

You saved my life, Mukohda.

On top of that, I heard from Lars that

the meat we ate were all high-quality ingredients...

I sincerely apologize about that!

No, don't be sorry!

I really can't take such wonderful products for free!

I can't take money from the person who saved my life.

Of course, I'll charge you properly next time.

Lambert, thank you very much.

By the way, I'd like to ask you about something, Mukohda.

Yes?

The fact that you had black serpent meat means

you hunted a black serpent before, correct?

Yes, Fel did.

Do you happen to have its skin?

Oh, I already sold that to the adventurer's guild.

I see. How unfortunate.

I was hoping to buy it from you if you still had it in your hands.

There's always a shortage of serpent skins.

Is that so?

Yes. The skin is expensive, but popular. They sell well.

The adventurer's guild recently got a high-level red serpent skin!

It's splendorous luster and vibrant color took my breath away!

However, I wasn't able to get my hands on any of it.

The skin was purchased for a very high price by a marquis family. I'm so envious.

I'm sorry. I was probably the one who put that snake skin on the market...

Buying monster parts directly from adventurers

is looked down upon by the guild,

but small exchanges are allowed.

If you hunt another black serpent, please sell me the skin!

I understand.

I got so many things from you, I'll be sure to offer it to you first.

You took a long time.

Hey, don't be like that. We were able to get some really good things.

Sui, how do you like the feel of the leather?

It's better than before.

I'm glad to hear that.

You kept talking about snakes earlier.

I wish to eat that for dinner.

It was delicious as karaage...

Karaage? Sui loves that!

All right! It's decided!

We're hunting the metal lizard tomorrow, so we'll go all out!

All right. The marinade is perfect.

We'll do soy sauce and salt-based ones like we did last time.

We have a lot of meat now.

I'll stuff the two of them until they say they can't eat anymore!

I should fry it twice to make it more delicious.

I'll cook the red serpent first.

Fry it at a low temperature first to cook it thoroughly.

They fry it at a high temperature to crisp the outside.

Yeah, a perfect golden color.

So freaking good!

What the heck is this?!

It's so juicy on the inside, but so crispy on the outside!

No fair, Master! Sui, too!

Feed me, as well.

I got it. Hold on a sec.

You already have some there!

Hurry and serve it!

They're not ready yet.

They're about to get even more delicious.

Thanks for waiting.

Master, these are tastier than before!

Right?

I fried them twice this time.

We still have a lot of meat left!

Another serving!

You guys are faster than usual...

All right! I'll keep them coming!

DOUBLE FRIED KARAAGE OF VARIOUS MEATS SOY SAUCE AND SALT FLAVOR

Sui is full.

Me, as well.

Hell, yeah! I won! It was worth marinating all that meat!

Hm? I cannot eat any more.

This is my share, as well as some for later.

If I fry them now, we can eat them later, when we want to.

Oh! You are quite thoughtful.

I'm not doing it just for you, Fel.

Oh, that's right.

I should use the oil to fry some tonkatsu and chicken katsu while I'm at it.

So good!

I can finally relax and enjoy some karaage.

Karaage and beer go so well together!

The tonkatsu is great, too!

As expected of orc general meat! Right, Fel? Sui?

Come to think of it, I haven't had a meal to myself in a while.

Eating delicious food while looking up at the moon...

What a luxury.

ANOTHER WORLD THEATER: SECOND SERVING

I decided to offer Japanese sweets this time.

Ooh! You have sent me different sweets yet again!

Let me see...

KOHAKUTO

What is this texture?!

It crumbles in my mouth and then melts away...

MITARASHI DANGO

This "dango" sweet is so squishy and chewy.

The sweet sauce that envelops it is so good!

What is this clear item?

MIZU YOKAN AND MIZU MANJU

What?! It tastes like red bean paste!

It seems red bean paste can become anything!

Won't you get fat if you eat that much?

What?!

What did you say?! There is no way a goddess like me would gain weight!

Why did you panic?

Silence!

Goodness, she's being so secretive.

Not fair.

I see...

This is Mukouda.

I've been working hard every day to increase my cooking repertoire!

After all, this world has a surprisingly large number of ingredients!
