Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Chapter 460: Everyone cooks together

A day before the flower viewing, Sebastian procured ingredients in Volton.

Inside my Item Box, I had a lot of dragon meat in stock. We have more than enough of the other meats and have a lot stuff stored there, so I handed Maribelle an appropriate amount.

Maria and Marnie were the head cooks, while Maribelle, Mabel, and the other maids helped them to prepare the time consuming dishes.

Jeeves[1] accompanied Dryas to where Gnome was to acquire some alcohol.

Now then, I suppose I should set up the tables and chairs.Geett the latest novels on no/v/elbin(.)c/om

Inside one of the breweries in the Sanctuary, a barter between fellow Great Spirits was happening.

The alcohol breweries, which started relatively early since the creation of the Sanctuary, continues to expand even now.

A number of large breweries had been built, producing not only wines like white wine, red wine, sparkling wine made from the Sanctuary-grown grapes, but increased the variety to also include whiskey and sake made from rice.

Although the alcohol was being sold to Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom, it was being traded for extremely large sums because the absolute amount we could sell to the Trination was a tiny amount.

In truth, we should have been able to sell a bit more, but the Sanctuary residents and, more than anyone else, the Great Spirits did not allow this.

Hey, give me one more barrel of this sparkling wine.

N-no, Dryas-sama, you are already taking three barrels of red wine, and another three barrels of white wine, so please be satisfied with one barrel of sparkling wine.

Hes right, Dryas. Besides, youre even taking ale, whiskey, and sake. Restrain yourself to these. Even more so, the red wine youre trying to get is a first class barrel that Takumi fermented using magic.

Inside the brewery were Dryas who was trying to take as many barrels of alcohol as she could, while Doganbo, who was involved in the brewing of alcohol in the Sanctuary, and the Great Earth Spirit Gnome were stopping her.

Yes, then Gnome and Doganbo, you will not be participating in the flower viewing then?

Wai-! Please wait a minute!

Takumi-sama, the whitefish carpaccio starter is complete, so please store it.

Roger.

Maria asked me to age the meat, so I used alchemy to break down the protein into amino acids.

Marnie requested that I store a completed dish. My Item Box maintains the current condition of what is stored inside it, so it will always stay fresh.

Master, the sausage boil is done.

Thank you. Ill store them after theyre grilled at the barbeque tomorrow.

Master, what should I do about the salad dressing?

Ill store it after its done. Inside the Item Box, the oil wont separate.

While I gave instructions to the maids helping in the kitchen, I cut dragon meat into the bite-sized pieces and seasoned it. Im preparing everyones favorite, karaage. Frying it twice, first in low temperature then in high temperature to make the outside coating crispy and juicy on the inside, then I stored it into my Item Box so it can be eaten at any time.

Takumi-sama, please make Kaede-chans favorite french fries.

Yup, french fries are popular so Ill fry up a lot.

Oil was expensive in this world, so fried food arent that common. But the Sanctuary has olive oil, sunflower oil, grapeseed oil, as well as lard from pork-type monsters which the Sanctuary residents are able to acquire for a cheap price, so fried food was the craze for a time. It was especially popular with the Dwarves as it was a good pairing with alcoholic beverages.

Once the first stage of food prep was done, I left the rest to Maria, Marnie, and the maids, and I headed into the workshop to make lighting magic tools to illuminate the venue.

Im sure the flower viewing party will go late into the night.
