LDM 401 Demon Kingdoms Dish

They woke me up because we have arrived in Aidis town.

Light swinging turned out to be a nice perk to make me fall asleep. Good morning

Good morning, its almost a night though

Kehma, you still sleep alot as usual

Its size only less half than Shia, but it certainly is a city, or maybe a big village.

It feels like that partly because this city has no wall surrounds it, only a fence. Rokuko then asks Aidi about that.

Why this town has no wall, there was only a fence

If we had a wall then wild monster wont come to attack us

Isnt that is why we build a wall, so monster cant attack?

ah, I see. Another cultural difference huh, how to put it? In this country a monster attack is serve as entertainment and jobs for its people

Its said that the Demon KIngdoms people find joy in fighting and attacking the monster, as expected of the country that earned nickname the fighting nation. It rumour said that they enjoying the act of breaking the monster limbs.

Furthermore, if the building is damaged by a monster attack, it will be a blessing for people with carpenter jobs. Theres also a risk that the field becomes destroyed but its fine, the monster meat will cover food shortages caused by it, and if that still not enough you can always use DP you earned from this.

Since theres many carnivores race in the Demon Kingdom, the vegetable and grains have little value here, or rather some people only consider them to be the bait to lure out a wild monster.

I see thats a quite different culture we have here. It means the fight itself is entertainment and not work

Right? When I was on the Empire, I was wondering why the wall is so high and its people are so crowded together, how can you fight the monster like this? And I was shocked to learn that most people didnt enjoy fighting

The people in Demon Kingdom Or at least the majority of them, are fighting maniac. Hitting instead of Greeting is normal here.

Why the technology of magic tools is better than empire, then?

Its obvious though? So we can fight better

Wagons and Carriage are designed to travel for long-distance or even to go through the battlefield.

The lights are developed so they can fight in darkness.

Magic tools also designed to kill enemies faster or to counter poison and other impairing effects.

its all a matter of life and death, so they did their best. So at the very least they can die peacefully knowing they already did their all.

Thats why this countrys Blacksmith and Alchemist are always competing with each other, sometimes they even put combined effort to create the best tools for battle. Thats the way of the Demon Kingdom.

heres a little quiz, why did the Demon Kingdom invent a carriage that can do a high-speed movement on the rough terrain?

if it is fast and stable, then it will be easy to attack using bow and magic

fufu, it seems you understand

Its often said that war is a catalyst for technology. Our carriage stops while I was thinking about such a thing, it seems that we have arrived.

I got off the carriage and I saw this stone mansion.

The wall is dyed red and with the sunset shone upon it, it like almost like its burning. I think this mansion is a perfect representation of Aidi.

Yeah, the sunset here is beautiful too. Of course, the sunset wont change whenever its on Demon Kingdom or Empire.

Its almost a time for dinner and we will be ready shortly. Do you still want to continue your sleep?

Yeah, Im still tired from our travel

But Kehma, you just sleeping all the time, and you did sleep so soundly, well Niku and Ichika are asleep too now

Thats not it, Im not tired in physical meaning ah, I still want to sleep.

I will give you this town specialty just give me a few minutes

Im looking forward to Demon Kingdoms meal! Is there anything I can do to help?

So you woke up? As usual, Ichika is easily lured by food

Yess, thank you, lady Aidi!

Arent you glad Ichika, but wait this is a home of fighting maniac, I feel like there will be a battle to get the meal that almost reaches their expiration date {Ben-To reference}

. My expectation was betrayed once again that night.

First we knead the flour, cut it into strips, put it in soup broth that was made from dried mushroom

its an Udon

and then we put Green Onion to your liking

its an Udon

Yes, it was udon. no matter that you say this is Udon.

Green onion

wahh, this is delicious. Its also slippery

Oi Niku, if you put too much green onion you will get sick, its not a food for a dog. But Ichika seems to love it.

At first it looks like pasta, but its drowned in the soup

fufufu, you can also use pasta sauce for this, and it will still be delicious

If you do it that way, it will be soft noodles.

so Aidi. How do you make this?

If you mix water with flour, it will form right?

Isnt that how you make bread?

Yes you can make bread from that, but the key is to put it just the right amount

This is like a Spaghetti but thinner

If you made it a bit thicker you can also make soumen!

So, you have soumen too

Maybe there are seasonings similar to shoyu in the Demon Kingdom, but still, you cant find rice in the Demon Kingdom, though the fish sauce can be found in Pavuera, so its no so strange if Shoyu existed somewhere

Oh, so thats why. Once upon a time Ishidaka comes to the Demon Kingdom and teaches them to make this, hes quick on his feet huh?

Isnt Ishidaka comes from Rokukos master original world?

I think he is, Ishidaka was a Hero and he seems to be from japan

Are you related to him somehow?

Nah, I doubt that

Well, I just found out that there is Udon (and soumen) in the Demon Kingdom. Today we learn a little more about the Demon Kingdoms history.

Well, isnt it a correct choice to study as a study abroad here? Slurp..slurpgulp

Ichika, you seem to like it so much, How about it? Wont you stay permanently in the Demon Kingdom?

Hey Aidi, dont try to recruit my slave. Its impossible

Thats a good idea, but I have to negotiate with Master so how about it?

Rejected!

You are my important slave. I wont give you away.

Ichika, let me tell you something good theres this thing, called Curry Udon. Which is a curry with udon

WhaWhat is!? Master! I will forever follow you!

TL note: I skipped one translation girigiri no rainda the heck this is means barely reindeer ?

Curry udon huh I think I still kept some curry block for my emergency food. somehow, I want to use it now.
